Chapter 199: Chapter 1199: King Level Is Just Around the Corner!

A while later.

Lin Xuerou emerged from the jungle. She was holding a bronze box in her hands as she walked toward the barrier and then headed straight for the villa. Looking at the box, her face was tinged with sorrow. After all, this was the treasure her father had obtained before. He had likely died for it! This item was both a life-taking talisman and a life-saving talisman. Now, she was going to give it to Ye Yunyi.

Meanwhile, at the villa.

Vira looked at Ye Yunyi with reverence. He had fought a King-level beast and returned in triumph. She walked up to him and pulled him into her room. Ye Yunyi was completely bewildered.

Good heavens. What was the meaning of this?

While he was still puzzled, Vira leaned in close. Then, she kissed him.

Ye Yunyi’s eyes widened in surprise.

Wow. She truly was a girl from the Northern borders. Was she really this bold?

However, Ye Yunyi didn’t just stand there in a daze. He glanced at the door. It was already tightly shut!

Outside.

The wives soon noticed Ye Yunyi was missing. Yu Yan and the others started looking around and asking about him before turning to Shu Lei.

"Shu Lei, do you know where Hubby went?"

Hearing this, Shu Lei immediately remembered that the room Ye Yunyi was in now was the exact same one where she had been held captive earlier. As for what they were doing... she couldn’t possibly say it aloud! She simply pointed toward the room. "Over there!"

Oh! Over there!

Wait, wasn’t that Vira’s room?

Yu Yan had a deep impression of the Northern girl. After all, she had fought quite fiercely during the previous beast horde. Curious, Yu Yan approached the room. But as she got closer, she suddenly froze in surprise.

Oh, my!

She finally understood why Shu Lei had hesitated to speak and only pointed in that direction!

Yu Yan turned around and headed back. Along the way, whenever she ran into the other sisters asking where Ye Yunyi had gone, she dropped a subtle hint. Everyone immediately understood. After all, they were already used to this.

A while later, Lin Xuerou entered the villa, looking for Ye Yunyi.

Zhou Huaiwei looked at her. "Xuerou, you’re looking for Hubby so urgently. Is something the matter?"

Lin Xuerou glanced down at the bronze box in her arms. "I need to give this to Lord Ye."

"This..." Zhou Huaiwei noted Lin Xuerou’s serious expression and eyed the bronze box.

It likely contained something extremely important. But how should she put this? Their husband definitely didn’t have any free time right now.

"Why don’t you sit down for a while? Hubby is busy with something at the moment," Zhou Huaiwei said, arranging for Lin Xuerou to take a seat.

She ended up waiting until evening.

Meanwhile, Ye Yunyi finally stepped out of Vira’s room, feeling entirely refreshed. As he looked around, a holographic screen suddenly popped up in front of him!

[Congratulations to the host for successfully taking a wife! Rewarded with the advanced version of Divine-level Fetal Protection Medicine, unlimited quantity!]

Ye Yunyi took a look.

Good heavens. What was this!

He checked the description. It was far more potent than the synthesized fetal protection medicine he had previously given his wives!

Not bad, not bad at all. And it was unlimited.

Then, another screen popped up!

[Congratulations to the host on his wife’s successful pregnancy! Obtained 10% progress for crafting the Divine-level Advancement Card. Current progress: 70%!]

Huh?! He finally got more of this!

Ye Yunyi thought about how he now possessed two major advancement tools. One was the Great Medicine refined from the Fire Flood Dragon Crystal Core. The other was this Divine-level Advancement Card. Reaching the King Level was practically just around the corner.

Filled with anticipation, Ye Yunyi checked his status panel.

Shortly after, Ye Yunyi ran into Qu Yilin.

"Hubby, someone is looking for you."

"Who?"

"Lin Xuerou."

Hearing this, Ye Yunyi was a bit surprised. Hadn’t he arranged for that girl to join the Medicine Alliance? Why was she back at the villa? Had she figured things out? Or was there something else?

"Alright, I’ll go take a look."

Meanwhile, in the reception room.

Lin Xuerou was practically numb from sitting so long.

Goodness. What on earth was Lord Ye so busy with that it took him this long? She looked at Zhou Huaiwei with a questioning expression.

Zhou Huaiwei noticed her gaze but pretended not to see it, even turning her head away. Otherwise, what could she do? What was she supposed to do? What could she even say?

Just as she was silently complaining to herself, Ye Yunyi returned from outside. He looked at Lin Xuerou and then at the box in her arms! Instantly, he understood!

After all, when Lin Xuerou’s father died, he had left behind a bronze key. Now, here was a box. The connection was self-evident.

However, looking at the box, Ye Yunyi couldn’t help but feel a bit doubtful. Did this thing really need a key? Couldn’t he just crush it and take out whatever was inside? Unless the contents were too fragile to withstand being forcefully broken open! Or perhaps there was some other mechanism that prevented brute force!

Seeing Ye Yunyi return, Lin Xuerou immediately walked up to him.

"Lord Ye, this is the item my father left behind. It’s likely that he was murdered because of it. Now, I am handing it over to you," she said. She looked at him intently, as if waiting for something, or perhaps seeking confirmation of something.

Ye Yunyi stared at the box. "Wait here for a moment."

He turned and walked out. With a flip of his hand, he retrieved the bronze key from the System Space and then returned.

Seeing the bronze key in Ye Yunyi’s hand, Lin Xuerou knew for sure that Lord Ye had told her the truth earlier. Her father really had given the bronze key to him.

"Lord Ye, this item can only be opened with the key. But even with the key, it must be opened with extreme caution," Lin Xuerou said slowly.

Hearing this, Ye Yunyi was slightly taken aback. He looked down at the box. It seemed his guess was entirely correct.
