My Silly, Sweet Wife

Indeed, Yuan Shao’s proposal was to gamble with their lives.

To others, people like him seemed like madmen.

However, the world was not short of madmen, especially when faced with something they were obsessed with. Many people acted insanely.

Just like Ye Guichen’s master, Li Fengxian, his research on poisons could be described as madness.

But Ye Guichen did not believe Yuan Shao was a madman.

During the close encounter just now, others couldn’t see Yuan Shao’s intent, but Ye Guichen could clearly feel that Yuan Shao was using some kind of secret technique to probe his cultivation.

Exactly!

The feeling was too strong.

To this day, Ye Guichen had never encountered a real master, and no one truly knew his cultivation level.

But in that instant, Yuan Shao definitely figured out his cultivation.

Knowing he’s not an opponent, only a fool would smash an egg against a rock.

So, Yuan Shao thought of this move.

”What, I thought you were a hero. Turns out you’re a coward!” Yuan Shao mocked when he saw Ye Guichen remain silent.

”Don’t fall for his trap!” Su Jiu’er flushed and said, ”Hmph, this is clearly suicide, it has nothing to do with being a coward!”

”Exactly, Brother Ye, Yuan Shao must have a scheme, don’t fall for it!” Zhou Weijun also added hastily.

Ye Guichen ignored their advice and smiled at Yuan Shao, pointing at the short man standing next to Yuan Shao, Tu Wan. ”He is a master of gambling, unparalleled in knife skills as well. Everyone’s heart has a gap; as long as the knife is inserted into the gap, it would only damage the flesh and not take a life. But this requires the person being stabbed to be brave and the knife wielder to be precise.”

As Ye Guichen spoke, he walked step by step towards Yuan Shao, ”I don’t have such a knife expert by my side, so why don’t we stab ourselves?”

Squinting at Yuan Shao, ”Do you dare?”

”Hahaha, what’s there not to dare!” Yuan Shao was stunned at first, then laughed loudly, ”Good! Since you dare to come, let’s do it! If you survive, the entire medicinal herb street is yours!”

”Hey, Ye Guichen, don’t go looking for death!” Su Jiu’er stomped her feet in anxiety hearing this, ”There’s no need to play such lethal games with a madman!”

Zhou Weijun was also anxious, ”At worst, we can fight them, what is this about!”

Ye Guichen shook his head and smiled, ”Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”

He then looked at Yuan Shao, ”But I have one condition.”

”Speak!” Yuan Shao spread his hands, indicating Ye Guichen could set any condition.

Ye Guichen pointed to his heart, ”I can stab my heart, but you have to stab here.”

As he spoke, Ye Guichen pointed to Yuan Shao’s right chest.

Everyone was taken aback by this.

It was common knowledge that the heart is on the left side. Ye Guichen asking Yuan Shao to stab the right side—was this a joke?

However, Yuan Shao’s expression changed dramatically, ”Brother Ye, are you insulting me?”

The implication was that Yuan Shao felt deeply wronged, making it seem like Ye Guichen was belittling him.

Ye Guichen ignored Yuan Shao’s pretense and smiled slightly, continuing, ”Mr. Yuan, I respect your skills, but I didn’t expect you to be such a petty person. Heh, this world is not short of some unusual people, and you are one of them. Most people’s hearts are on the left, but yours happens to be on the right. This wager seems a bit unfair, doesn’t it?”

Swish!

Upon hearing this, the usually composed Yuan Shao’s expression changed again.

He indeed had some skills and had just tested Ye Guichen’s high-level cultivation. Knowing he was not an opponent, he wouldn’t smash an egg against a rock.

So, he conceived this plan, intending to use this opportunity to kill Ye Guichen.

But he didn’t expect Ye Guichen to see through his scheme at a glance.

How was this possible?

Yuan Shao was utterly shocked.

No one knew his heart was on the right, not even Zhou Weijun, who had known him since childhood.

For this reason, Yuan Shao had escaped death using this trick several times before.

”What, heart on the right side?” Zhou Weijun was also astonished.

Isn’t this too outrageous?

He had spent more time with Yuan Shao than Ye Guichen, how did Ye Guichen know better than him?

”Brother Ye...” However, from Yuan Shao’s expression, Zhou Weijun realized Ye Guichen was right. He looked at Ye Guichen in shock, not understanding how Ye Guichen discovered this secret.

”What, not daring?” Seeing Yuan Shao hesitate, Ye Guichen smiled and said, ”I always thought highly of you; now it seems you’re just so-so.”

Ye Guichen shook his head slightly, ”Heh, these petty tricks might fool others, but in my eyes, they’re nothing. Go ahead, show me what you’ve got!”

Deeply impressed!

At this moment, Zhou Weijun was thoroughly impressed by Ye Guichen!

Even Su Jiu’er’s eyes sparkled, feeling Ye Guichen was exceedingly bold and charismatic.

”Hahaha, you really surprised me!” In an instant, Yuan Shao burst into frenzied laughter, ”Since you’ve seen through me, fine, today I’ll show you the Heavenly Gang Formation. Hahaha, you’ll die under this formation, and it won’t be in vain!”

Finally, Yuan Shao decided not to hide his trump card any longer, ”Ye Guichen, I originally didn’t plan to deal with you so soon. I heard even Wen Daoxian, the Azure Dragon Commerce president’s confidant, fell to you. Clearly, you are someone important. So, step by step, I intended to control Yun City and then deal with you. But today, you delivered yourself and also brought Weijun along.”

”Since that’s the case, none of you should leave today. Haha, Brother Weijun, do you remember what I said?” Yuan Shao looked at Zhou Weijun, a fervent look appearing on his face, ”I told you, I am a descendant of Yuan Tiangang, knowledgeable in some techniques. You always said I was delusional. Since that’s the case, let me show you my Heavenly Gang Formation today!”

As he finished speaking, Yuan Shao suddenly took out a black flag and waved it into the wind.

The next second, the originally clear sky turned dark.

Zhou Weijun and Su Jiu’er both turned pale.

They had never seen such a sight.

Even Shi Tou tensed up and instinctively moved closer to Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen raised his head, looking at the dark sky, his brows furrowing.

Indeed, Yuan Shao had some skills, he had actually set up an array here.

Moreover, the array seemed far beyond an ordinary person’s understanding.

”Whoosh!”

A cold wind howled by.

Meanwhile, Yuan Shao’s lips curled into a sinister smile as he waved the flag again, and a round moon appeared in the previously dark sky.

”What is this?”

”Isn’t this too bizarre?”

”Brother Ye, what do we do?”

Among Ye Guichen’s group, Zhou Weijun had the weakest cultivation and was now extremely anxious.

Just moments ago, the sky was clear, and now a dark moon was hanging in the sky.

If not seen with their own eyes, who would believe it?

”Roar!”

While Zhou Weijun and his group were still extremely nervous, another roar sounded.

Standing by Yuan Shao, Water Liao suddenly tore off his own clothes, like a wild beast about to awaken, his eyes glinting with a savage and brutal aura.
