My Silly, Sweet Wife

Upon hearing Master Huang’s words, Yin Chanzi was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat.

He was truly afraid Ye Guichen might agree. If Ye Guichen became the right-hand man of Master Huang, he might target him.

Fan Zhidong and his son did not expect Ye Guichen to show up either.

They were just going to pay respects at a grave, but they hadn’t expected to be captured and brought here.

The two listened to the dialogue between Ye Guichen and Master Huang, looking at Ye Guichen with longing eyes.

There was fear in their hearts, as well as hesitation.

”Sect Leader Ye, if killing us means you can survive, then do it!” Fan Zhidong said tremblingly. ”You are the hope of the Shennong Sect, and the Shennong Sect is our faith. Even if we die, we hope you can uphold your beliefs and not go astray.”

Fan Chang’an gritted his teeth and said, ”Sect Leader Ye, although we don’t know who they are, the Medicine King Valley is no longer worthy of being called healers. You must not mix with them!”

Ye Guichen took two steps forward, ”Don’t worry, I won’t collude with the people of Medicine King Valley!”

With that, he threw Yan Chou in front of another wolf dog.

Yan Chou was yelling as he was flung, but those wolf dogs, evidently familiar with human flesh, knew how to kill swiftly.

Almost as soon as Yan Chou hit the ground, a wolf dog snapped his neck.

The people with Master Huang did not expect Ye Guichen to leave them no room for negotiation.

”What, is this a refusal?” Master Huang’s face turned grim. ”Although my two subordinates are not capable, they are mine. You kill them at will; is this defiance against me?”

Ye Guichen shrugged, ”Master Huang, you speak too highly of me. In your eyes, I may be insignificant, but these two wanted to kill me. I’m a petty person, and since you have man-eating dogs, how could I not take advantage?”

”Besides, you invited me today. You are the host, I am the guest; how could I not bring a gift? Don’t you think, Master Huang?”

While speaking, Ye Guichen approached within five steps of Master Huang.

Master Huang snorted, ”What, planning to ambush me? With just you? I’m afraid you lack the ability!”

”Captain Ye, why waste so much breath on them!” Luo Huasheng had been impatient for a while.

He raised the Hunyuan Iron Rod and swung it down on Master Huang’s head.

Master Huang’s face remained calm, as if he didn’t regard Luo Huasheng at all.

Bang!

A single strike landed directly on Master Huang’s head.

But the next second, Master Huang mysteriously disappeared.

Luo Huasheng’s strike hit nothing.

Luo Huasheng was startled, his face tense, yet Master Huang’s voice sounded again, ”I, Mr. Huang, have been arranging this for a long time. Do you really think you can escape my grasp? Heh, little monk, your abilities are mediocre, and I have never had a good impression of your Buddhist kind. Since you insisted on delivering yourself, I’ll send you off. But Ye Guichen, I’ll repeat, if you want to live, kill these two Shennong Sect dogs as a pledge. Otherwise, you’re dead meat today.”

As he spoke, Master Huang appeared again not far away, his figure as eerie as a ghost.

Luo Huasheng hadn’t figured out what was happening when he heard a breaking sound beside him.

Turning his head, he saw several figures rushing toward him.

Each of them wielded big ghost-headed knives, like phantoms, accompanied by chilling cries.

Luo Huasheng’s heart sank. As he turned, he could no longer see Ye Guichen.

”Damn it, another illusion!”

Luo Huasheng cursed under his breath, ”If you have the guts, fight me head-on with real weapons. What’s the point of these sneaky tricks!”

”Shhh!”

Just then, Luo Huasheng was slashed on the back.

A wound nearly half a meter long revealed his flesh.

Luo Huasheng grimaced in pain.

”Buddha’s power is boundless!” Swinging his stick behind him, he shattered the ghostly figure that had injured him.

However, the phantoms continued to multiply, seemingly endless.

Luo Huasheng had no choice but to retreat step by step.

In the blink of an eye, he was already wounded in several places.

The more he fought, the more alarmed he felt. Unsure what to do, he suddenly heard Ye Guichen’s voice, ”Captain Luo, close your eyes and listen!”

Luo Huasheng was startled, but without much thought, he quickly closed his eyes.

The chilling cries around him seemed to vanish instantly.

Soon, he heard a whooshing sound from behind.

”Scram!”

Luo Huasheng moved like lightning, swinging his rod.

Bang!

This time, the strike hit solidly, as if it hit something, sending the opponent flying.

Luo Huasheng exclaimed with joy, ”Come on!”

His ears twitched as he swung the Hunyuan Rod swiftly.

With every swing, he nearly hit an expert.

Meanwhile,

The entire courtyard seemed shrouded in impenetrable fog.

Specters wielding ghost-headed blades surrounded Ye Guichen just the same.

However, Ye Guichen was unaffected by these phantoms. Focusing his inner energy on his eyes, he instantly saw through the illusions before him.

Master Huang’s people hid within the array, approaching stealthily, using the phantasms to launch surprise attacks.

Yin Chanzi stood just seven steps away from Ye Guichen, eyes wide, staring at Ye Guichen and Luo Huasheng with an excited smile.

”Master Huang, your skill is truly extraordinary, such a method is beyond understanding!” Yin Chanzi continued to flatter.

Master Huang was very pleased with his array, ”Heh, this is the formidable array from the Wuyin Sect, the Wuyin Array. Altered by me, it became the Witch Gu Mist Array, its power beyond your comprehension. Hmph, not to mention a little monk and this kid Ye Guichen; even the Daoist Zhang Chonglou, if trapped inside, would barely escape with his life.”

Yin Chanzi fawned, ”Master Huang, your prowess is remarkable. The Witch God Sect sending you is indeed wise. Also, killing Fan Zhidong father and son, the Shennong Sect dogs, serves as a warning to others still harboring hope for the Shennong Sect’s rise.”

Master Huang snorted disdainfully, ”Yin Chanzi, your Medicine King Valley is a significant sect. Although nothing to our Witch God Sect, yet you live so humbly, afraid of a fallen Shennong Sect?”

Yin Chanzi was extremely embarrassed and defended, ”Master Huang jokes, our Medicine King Valley is now part of your Witch God Sect. We are allies serving the Eternal Life Hall, one family, no more words needed, haha, no more words needed.”

Master Huang glanced at Yin Chanzi, his eyes filled with undisguised ridicule, ”Indeed, your Valley Master is now an elder in the Eternal Life Hall, as is our Witch God Sect Master. So, in a sense, we are equals. But you should understand, the Eternal Life Hall admitted your Medicine King Valley for your worldly influence. Certain dirty and tedious tasks are easier with you handling them. However, the fiasco at Longsheng Hall must be remedied promptly, or you know the consequences?”

Yin Chanzi shuddered at the words, glaring venomously at Ye Guichen, ”It’s all because of this man. Humiliating me in Jinling wasn’t enough; now he’s ruining our plans! Unless he’s dead, my heart won’t rest!”

Yin Chanzi assumed that within the array, others couldn’t hear them, and neither could Ye Guichen or Luo Huasheng see him.

But while staring at Ye Guichen, Yin Chanzi suddenly realized Ye Guichen was staring back, a cold smile curling on his lips.
