My Silly, Sweet Wife

”Ah, ah, ah, there’s a ghost!”

”What’s going on? Why did the sky suddenly turn black?”

”How did those people die?”

For a moment, the entire Medicine King Valley was thrown into panic.

Even those martial arts masters turned pale.

Lou Shanguan quickly retreated next to his companions, his breathing heavy: ”It’s happening, it’s really happening!”

As the valley became pitch black, only about ten meters ahead could be vaguely seen.

Strange wails echoed from the depths of the valley.

Lou Shanguan swallowed: ”The Hidden Sect has opened, it’s really opened!”

With Lou Shanguan’s words, everyone’s nerves were stretched to the limit.

Those slightly more skilled sensed that there were thousands of figures emerging densely.

But upon closer look, those figures didn’t appear to be walking out, but floating.

Before long, the figures appeared before Ye Guichen and the others.

Densely packed, not merely thousands, but uncountable.

They were enveloped in black mist, their true faces unseen.

Upon seeing those figures, everyone turned pale, the air around them seemingly dropping by several degrees, as though plunged into Rashamon Hell.

”Brother Lou, what do we do?”

The people from Wudang Mountain huddled around Lou Shanguan.

They could no longer spare a thought for their injured companions.

In this situation, they weren’t sure if they could escape themselves.

Lou Shanguan frowned, tightly gripping his sword, his voice trembling: ”These Yin Souls appear to lack their own spiritual sense, likely trapped in Luoyin Mountain, having lost their consciousness. It’s impossible for us to fight them. We should try to break the seal on Medicine King Valley’s Yin Barrier and leave this place quickly.”

”Yin Barrier?” The other Wudang disciples were surprised: ”How do we break it?”

”What else can we do? Use the Evil-breaking Talisman. That Yin Barrier must be formed by gathered evil forces; there’s no other way.”

The Wudang disciples knew that there’s indeed no other option, and immediately followed orders to break the Yin energy sealing the valley entrance.

Wan Ying was already so frightened that she collapsed to the ground, her expression twisted to the extreme: ”It’s over, we’re done for, it’s truly over!”

One master couldn’t hold back his urgency but still managed to maintain his master’s demeanor: ”What’s there to fear! Just a group of pretenders! Watch as I kill them!”

With a flicker of his figure, he swung an axe at one of the shadows.

However, the axe passed through the shadow as if cutting through air.

The shadow lifted its head, grinning at the master: ”Hehe.”

From its mouth extended a long tongue, directly wrapping around the master’s neck.

Then gently twisting.

The master froze in place, collapsing to the ground, dead on the spot.

Wow!

The scene stunned everyone present.

It was terrifying.

How is this even possible?

The crowd descended into chaos.

The Yin Souls, however, made no further movements, seemingly awaiting something.

Martial Arts Disciples continually attacked the Yin Barrier at the valley’s entrance, but saw little effect.

Su Tong also became extremely weak: ”Sect Leader, what do we do?”

Ye Guichen stared intently at the Yin Souls, his brow furrowed, and upon hearing Su Tong’s words, he coldly snorted: ”Just minor tricks, not worth mentioning!”

”Haha, such minor tricks!”

A wild laugh rang out.

Behind the Yin Souls, a group of people emerged.

At the forefront was Wu Dan and Long Yuntai, whom Ye Guichen encountered earlier.

Behind them followed a group of men in black, evidently the Wu Family.

Wu Dan glanced at Su Ze, laughing with superiority: ”Hey, Su Ze, looking pale, are you scared stiff?”

Su Ze was startled: ”Gutless, is this your doing?”

”Haha, I don’t have such capabilities.” Wu Dan pointed ahead of him, speaking to Su Ze: ”Su Ze, given our acquaintance, kneel now, bow to me, call me ’Grandfather’ three times, and perhaps I’ll spare your life today!”

Su Ze’s pupils contracted, hesitating.

Seeing Su Ze silent, Wu Dan sneered: ”Master Long, looks like this young master of the Su Family is still hopeful.”

Long Yuntai chuckled slightly.

He had just summoned these Yin Souls, still unfamiliar, perfect for trying it out.

Raising a black flag, he waved it.

A cold wind swept past.

Several ghostly figures rushed at Su Ze.

Su Ze wet himself in fear on the spot.

Plop!

Without thinking further, Su Ze fell to his knees, kowtowing repeatedly: ”Grandfather, grandfather, spare me!”

”Haha, haha, you’re really gutless!” Wu Dan laughed triumphantly, seemingly very satisfied with Su Ze’s reaction, then his gaze fell on Ye Guichen: ”Kid, you seemed disrespectful to me before, now’s your chance too, kneel and call ’Grandfather’ three times.”

Long Yuntai also looked at Ye Guichen with interest.

Although unaware of Ye Guichen’s identity, upon seeing him, Long Yuntai developed an interest.

In Long Yuntai’s eyes, Ye Guichen didn’t display the same aggressiveness as his peers, but subtly gave him a sense of crisis.

This feeling, though hard to explain, made Long Yuntai firmly believe.

Among these people, perhaps Ye Guichen was the most formidable.

”Call your damn bluff!” Lou Shanguan was already wide-eyed upon seeing the black flag.

Soul Refining Flag.

It seemed to be an Esoteric Sect’s Soul Refining Flag, meant for refining Yin Souls within.

Meaning, this black flag was a flag of utmost evil.

Only by damaging this black flag would the Yin Souls disperse.

Seeing Wu Dan’s arrogance, Lou Shanguan had already acted.

His Peach Wood Sword struck towards the three Yin Souls heading for Su Ze, with no intention of stopping, aiming to shatter Long Yuntai’s black flag.

Long Yuntai sneered: ”Overestimating yourself! Stupid Taoist, dare to challenge me?”

Waving the black flag in his hand.

Oooo!

Amidst several wailing cries, Lou Shanguan only felt darkness enveloping him, and looking up, found himself surrounded by over a dozen Yin Souls.

Those Yin Souls stretched their claws, tearing at Lou Shanguan’s body.

Though Lou Shanguan was a Taoist, facing Yin Souls directly was rare, not expecting them to be so powerful; despite slaying several in succession, being grabbed by the neck, he felt an indescribable suffocation, struggling like a drowning person seeking to break the surface.

But the more he struggled, the deeper he sank.

Lou Shanguan felt his consciousness fading.

Just then, a voice sounded: ”Come out!”

As if someone gave a pull.

Lou Shanguan sensed the suffocation disappearing instantly.

Looking up, he saw Ye Guichen standing before him.
