    Chapter 463 You Are My First Love

    Wu Yue suggested, "Could we expand the perimeter a bit and give me a little more space to work with?"

    Everyone shook their heads, "Don't even think about it. The risk of you getting wiped out is more serious than the danger of this dungeon itself."

    Jiang Huaizhi said bluntly, "The visibility here is too low. Expanding the perimeter would compromise the safety of those on the outer edge."

    Wu Yue suddenly had an idea: "What if we bring in some high-powered fans and searchlights to try?"

    Everyone was baffled, "...Huh?"

    What is she going on about?

    Wu Yue explained, "In horror dungeons, the atmosphere is always made super creepy, right? I’ve actually wanted to try this for a while. It’s all dark and covered in dark haze here, which creates that can’t-see-your-hand-in-front-of-your-face dark effect. Since this dungeon doesn’t have a player cap or many restrictions, why can’t we use technology to improve the environment? Fans could clear the haze, searchlights to light the way. Besides, you’re all wearing gas masks—why not sterilize the area while we’re at it?"

    Feeling Shen Que instantly slip an arm around her waist, clearly about to drag her out of the dungeon, Wu Yue quickly emphasized: "I didn’t use any psychic power. This was exactly how I beat story dungeons back in the day, before I even had psychic abilities."

    Shen Que took a deep breath and released her. That urge to chop her on the back of the neck to knock her out and quiet her overactive brain—it’s been a while since he’s felt that!!

    After speaking, Wu Yue lazily leaned against Shen Que to relax, while the think tank went into overdrive brainstorming, following her line of thought.

    Jian Suiyu said, "I think we can give it a try."

    Jiang Yuhua added, "Anyway, beating this dungeon the normal way would take two days. What’s an extra hour to get fans and searchlights?"

    Jiang Huaizhi wondered, "Will the dungeon become unstable?"

    Fu Yanqi reassured, "Shen Que just used his ultimate move, and the dungeon is still stable. The restrictions seem solid enough—it should be fine."

    Richard observed, "I’ve noticed the psychic cores of the monsters in this dungeon are very active."

    Wu Yue suddenly turned to him, "You said the psychic cores of the monsters here are very active?"

    Wu Yue tugged at Shen Que’s sleeve and called over Jie Chen, Wu Chong, and Chun Ya in white. "Come with me to grab the loot."

    While the fans and searchlights were being prepared, Wu Yue approached the dungeon entrance and started looting.

    "Congratulations, you have obtained 100 SS-rank Diamond Cores."

    Wu Yue looked at the loot thoughtfully. "An SS+ monster actually dropped 100 SS-rank Diamond Cores."

    She paused her looting and stared at the monster corpses and scattered remains that weren’t disappearing.

    Wu Yue said, "Jie Chen, try to lay these spirits to rest."

    Jie Chen took on his golden form, opened his eyes, now glowing with wisdom, and began silently reciting the Heart-Cleansing Mantra.

    Each word he uttered transformed into golden characters that slowly flowed out, enveloping the monster corpses. To everyone’s surprise, as the characters multiplied, the corpses gradually faded and dissipated into the air.

    At the same time, besides the originally dropped Crystal Core loot bundle, a purple-gold loot bundle also appeared on the ground.

    Wu Yue instantly smirked and directly waved at Chun Ya, "You go pick it up."

    Chun Ya pointed at herself in confusion, "Me?"

    Wu Yue nodded, smiling as she said, "You go. Trust me, I’ll take care of you, sis, and hook you up with the best loot and perks."

    Chun Ya immediately believed the promise Wu Yue dangled and stepped forward without hesitation to pick up the package.

    "Congratulations, you have obtained a permanent psychic power boost. Your current psychic power level has been raised to SS+."

    Holy shit!!!

    Chun Ya jumped up in excitement, "This package boosts psychic power!! It directly raised my psychic power to SS+!!"

    Wu Yue shrugged, "These monsters are still too low-level, otherwise they could've pushed you straight to SSS. But it's fine, the next wave is for you."

    Chun Ya hugged Wu Yue, feeling ecstatic, "Husband (jokingly calling her 'husband'), I love you."

    Shen Que/Shang Baiyi, "..." Damn, I really can’t handle this dungeon for another second.

    Shang Baiyi found it all utterly absurd, "There has never been a precedent for psychic power boosts!!"

    As soon as he said it, he wanted to slap himself—everyone on their side had their psychic power boosted.

    He corrected himself, "Dungeons have never dropped item rewards that boost psychic power!!"

    Wu Yue shrugged, "But these monsters have all absorbed my Evil Energy. Isn’t it natural for item rewards to update and evolve?

    Plus, the dungeon is clearly trying to nerf items and summons now, so the rewards are bound to lean toward psychic power and weapons.

    This dungeon has the highest number of monsters and the heaviest Evil Energy among the five forbidden lands. The Alliance has spent so much effort and resources nurturing it all these years just to farm it. Wouldn’t it be bullshit if it didn’t drop some good loot?"

    Jian Suiyu found it unbelievable, "How did you even think of all this?"

    Wu Yue, "Just a random thought."

    Everyone, "Could you answer a bit more seriously!!"

    Wu Yue, "Back in Season 4, I said it, right? I wanted to raise everyone’s psychic power to SSS+. To be honest, I had this idea back then, but I never actually made it happen.

    Look at the other things I thought of—having a child, sending the summons, items, and my dad to the Order Realm, saving Madam Lian—all of it got done.

    Only this psychic power boost thing, I waited a whole week and got no feedback. I was starting to wonder if the approval process was just stuck somewhere.

    Now I get it. The System clearly has feelings for me but can’t have me, so they’re gritting their teeth, wanting to give it to me but holding back.

    If they give it directly, they’d feel like they’re being too submissive and can’t accept it. If they don’t give it, they’re afraid I’ll completely forget about them, and all those sunk costs would go to waste.

    So they’re using this method—making it so that one day when I’m in a dungeon, I suddenly realize they actually fulfilled my wish, silently putting in the effort, waiting for me to have a sudden epiphany, regret everything, and turn them into the *white moonlight* in my heart."

    As Wu Yue spoke with a straight face, Shen Que’s expression grew darker and darker beside her.

    When she reached the part about "white moonlight," the celestial lightning around him flickered wildly, his entire being shrouded in gloom as he kicked the nearby dungeon gate clean off.

    Everyone sneaked a glance at Shen Que, and they all thought the same thing:

    Even though this sounds absolutely ridiculous, it weirdly lines up perfectly in every way!!

    That is to say, the human world and the Order Realm's two power players who make the rules are both Wu Yue's devoted followers.

    The mighty Alliance's top fighter, the sharp-looking and well-built Prince Noah, would only rank third if we were to compare who simps harder!

    Jian Suiyu thought for a moment, "But according to this logic, the previous speculation that you would ascend directly to the Order Realm doesn't hold up.

    Since the Heavenly Dao likes you so much, it would never send you to the Order Realm."

    Wu Yue nodded, "Exactly, so let's not jump to conclusions—it's all just speculation for now. While my spiritual power hasn't fully recovered, we'll take things one step at a time."

    Wu Yue glanced at Shen Que, who deliberately turned his face away, ignoring her.

    She couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile and bent down to start picking up the loot. Once everything was collected,

    Wu Yue walked over to Shen Que and quietly reached out to hold his hand. Before she could even touch it, her entire hand was tightly wrapped in his.

    Feeling Shen Que angrily squeezing her hand in frustration, Wu Yue couldn't help but duck her head and laugh quietly. Shen Que lowered his voice, speaking in a tone only the two of them could hear:

    "Just wait until after the dungeon. You'll see what I do to you!"

    Wu Yue looked up at him, feeling happy just seeing his cold, scowling expression.

    She teasingly drew circles in Shen Que's palm with her finger, and he caught her teasing hand.

    Wu Yue whispered almost inaudibly, "Don't be angry. You're my one true love. It's always been you, only you, and there will never be anyone else."

    Shen Que instantly tightened his grip on Wu Yue's hand, looked away, and tried to suppress the uncontrollable smile forming at the corners of his mouth.
