My CEO Bai Fumei’s wife

Qin Yu did not answer him, because Zhuge Chuchu's voice rang out in his soul link.

"There is still a trace of aura inside the cage of light; it is a fragment of a seal left by my father before his death."

The seal fragment of Zhuge Qingyun is right next to Yan Mingyu's soul, which means that Zhuge Qingyun once tried to protect Yan Mingyu in his previous life.

"Why does your father protect my wife?"

“I don’t know, but the pattern my father drew before he disappeared was the sacred mark of the Elf Forest. He probably knew all along that Yan Mingyu’s soul would be brought here.”

Qin Yu's mind was racing. Zhuge Qingyun was a half-step Nascent Soul expert, and his deductive abilities could see into the future. He had foreseen today's situation twenty years ago.

"What can the fragments of the seal left by your father do?"

"If I activate it with the Glass Eye, I can temporarily suppress the absorption speed of that gem, giving you three breaths of time."

Three breaths.

Qin Yu's gaze fell on the Falling Moon Divine Bow in Cang Lan's hand. Three breaths were enough time for him to do a lot of things.

"Activate it."

Zhuge Chuchu's crystal eyes lit up, and her bloodline power passed through the light cage and touched the seal fragments left by her father.

The moment the seal was activated, the gem in Canglan's hand dimmed, and the speed at which she extracted Yan Mingyu's soul instantly dropped to its lowest point.

Cang Lan's expression changed drastically; he hadn't expected that such a thing was hidden inside the light cage.

"How is that possible? This is Zhuge Qingyun's sealing technique."

His surprise lasted only a moment, because Qin Yu's figure had already disappeared from the spot.

The arrow from the Falling Moon Divine Bow was fired, but Qin Yu was faster than the moonlight. The arrow grazed past him, only tearing a corner of his clothes.

Canglan tried to pull back the second arrow, but his hand was gripped by a hand as strong as an iron clamp.

Qin Yu stood in front of him, less than a foot apart.

"Your bow is quite beautiful."

"Release this prince."

Canglan tried to shake off Qin Yu's hand with his spiritual power, but he found that his spiritual power was dissipated by the residual power of the Heaven-Defying Tribulation the moment it came into contact with Qin Yu.

"Why is your spiritual power so domineering...?"

"Because I have just survived a heaven-defying tribulation."

Qin Yu grasped the Falling Moon Divine Bow with his other hand. The seal on the bow, which had recognized its master, struggled violently for a moment when it came into contact with his True Dragon Qi, and then fell completely silent.

"From now on, this bow belongs to the Qin family."

Canglan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. The Falling Moon Divine Bow was the treasured heirloom of the Elven race, passed down through generations. It only recognized Elven blood and not outsiders. How could a human possibly take away its right to claim it?

"Impossible, you don't have elven blood, the Moonfall Bow can't possibly recognize you."

"This young master does not have the bloodline of an elf, but this young master has the bloodline of a true dragon."

Qin Yu pulled the divine bow towards himself, and Cang Lan staggered forward two steps.

"The true dragon is the king of all demons. No matter how pure your bloodline is, you elves are just a branch of the demon race. Bowing down before the true dragon is your instinct."

These words made Canglan's face turn a deep purplish-red. The elves have always considered themselves a third race, independent of the humans and demons, and have never admitted to being a branch of the demon race.

"Nonsense, the elves are children of nature and have nothing to do with the demons."

Whether it's related or not isn't up to you to decide.

Qin Yu released Cang Lan's hand, but the Falling Moon Divine Bow was already in his grasp.

"This bow recognizes me, not you. That's the best proof."

Cang Lan's face was completely contorted. This was the first time in eight hundred years that someone had taken away his magical artifact in front of him and mocked him. "Even if you take away the Falling Moon Divine Bow, it's useless. In the Elf Forest, this prince can mobilize the power of the entire forest."

His hands formed a hand seal, and the ancient trees around him roared at the same time. Angry human faces appeared on the tree trunks, and countless tree roots emerged from the ground and surged towards Qin Yu.

Qin Yu did not dodge. He drew the Falling Moon Divine Bow. There was no arrow on the bowstring, but his heaven-defying tribulation lightning condensed into a dark purple lightning arrow on the bowstring.

"You mobilize the entire forest to deal with me, but I only need one arrow."

The arrow was shot out, carrying the destructive power of a calamity against heaven, heading straight for a main branch of the Tree of Life.

That main branch was three times thicker than that of an ordinary giant tree, and it was wrapped with countless glowing vines. It was one of the most important energy channels in the entire Tree of Life.

With a loud bang.

The main branch snapped off the tree trunk under the bombardment of the lightning arrow, and the huge branch crashed down next to the altar, scaring several elven nobles into scattering and fleeing.

The Tree of Life trembled violently, and the roots and vines that had been attacking Qin Yu instantly lost control and retreated.

Canglan's expression changed from anger to fear. The Tree of Life was a sacred object of the elves, and this human dared to shoot at it.

"Do you know what you're doing? The Tree of Life is the foundation of the Elven race for three thousand years."

"I know, I just want you to understand one thing."

Qin Yu drew back the divine bow once more, and the second thunder arrow took shape on the string, its tip pointing towards the light cage in the center of the altar.

"You can control the forest, but I can destroy it. Now, who really is the master here?"

As the lightning arrow approached, cracks spread across the surface of the light cage. Yan Mingyu's soul inside the cage sensed Qin Yu, and the originally dim light suddenly brightened.

The seal fragments left by Zhuge Qingyun shattered at this moment, the seal disappeared, and the remaining bindings of the Azure Gem were also taken away.

The light cage shattered.

Yan Mingyu's soul transformed into a beam of white light and landed directly in Qin Yu's arms. Her aura began to slowly return the moment she touched him.

Qin Yu could truly feel her presence; that familiar, reassuring feeling had returned.

Although she was still in a spirit state, at least she was still alive.

"Wife, let's go home."

He spoke softly, yet everyone heard him clearly.

Cang Lan stood there motionless. His three-hundred-year-long plan for advancement had been disrupted by Qin Yu in a few moves. The clan's treasure had also been lost, and a branch of the sacred tree had been broken off. This series of changes was completely unacceptable to him.

"Do you...do you know what you've done...?"

"What did I do?"

Qin Yu stored Yan Mingyu's soul into a crystal ball in his storage ring. The Falling Moon Divine Bow emitted a faint moonlight in his hand, as if it were showing goodwill to its new master.

"This young master saved his wife, seized a bow, and incidentally taught a lesson to an arrogant elf prince."

"You're finished. The elves won't let you get away with this."

Cang Lan's voice trembled. He wasn't afraid of Qin Yu, but he was afraid of facing the Elf King's wrath when he returned.

Qin Yu's response was a slap.

That slap wasn't delivered with spiritual power, but purely with physical strength. It distorted Canglan's delicate face, sending half a mouthful of teeth flying out mixed with green blood.

"This slap is for my wife. I'll slap you for as long as she was tortured by you in the nude cage."

The second slap followed immediately, and Canglan's body spun around in place, losing the other half of her teeth.

"The second slap was for Zhuge Qingyun. He even left behind a fragment of the seal to protect my wife's soul, yet you want to use her as nourishment for your advancement." (End of Chapter)
