My Silly, Sweet Wife

Watching Long Yuntai’s excitement, Ye Guichen remained silent.

However, his demeanor clearly indicated tacit approval.

Long Yuntai dared not delay, and quickly explained the Esoteric Sect matters.

”Sect Master, in fact, our Esoteric Sect has been established for several thousand years, it seems that ever since human history began, it was already there. The location of our Esoteric Sect is impossible for outsiders to find, simply because it contains a super array, and to this day, no one has been able to decipher what kind of array it is.”

”Moreover, where our Esoteric Sect is located, there’s a Holy Stele, and no one knows its origins. It seems to have existed since the foundation of the Esoteric Sect. All 108 volumes of arts come from this Holy Stele.”

Through Long Yuntai’s intermittent narrative, Ye Guichen gradually understood the mystery of the Esoteric Sect.

According to Long Yuntai, the first volume of the Esoteric Sect’s 108 volumes is extremely domineering, named the Heavenly Volume, and it’s all Wordless Heavenly Scriptures, said to record the art of communicating with gods.

However, to this day, no one has been able to see this Heavenly Volume art, and not even the first ten volumes have been seen by anyone.

Moreover, though the arts have developed into thousands of schools nowadays, they all seem to return to one source, as if they all originate from the Esoteric Sect, like the Esoteric Sect is the root trunk of a big tree, and the world’s arts are branches.

It is precisely for this reason that Long Yuntai easily dealt with Gui Jianchou.

After listening, Ye Guichen couldn’t help but be filled with longing.

If what Long Yuntai said is true, his own Evergreen Art of Yi Wood is also one of the 108 volumes of the Esoteric Sect.

Then one day, when he reaches the Esoteric Sect and sees those 108 volumes, wouldn’t he be able to wave his hand and create clouds, exhale and generate wind, with means like those of an immortal?

Lost in wild thoughts, Ye Guichen received a strange call.

The caller claimed to be Huang Fuqi, one of the twelve Grand Protectors under Lord Military God, asking if Ye Guichen had handled matters and when he could go to the Great Cold Mountain to find the Eternal Life Hall’s lair.

Before coming to Tianzhou, Ye Guichen had spoken with this Huang Fuqi over the phone, who explained his intentions, with Zhang Chonglou also personally speaking, naturally, Ye Guichen had no reason to refuse.

Seeing the matters with the Su Family were almost settled, Ye Guichen thought for a moment and said, ”In three days, then.”

Meanwhile, in a teahouse in Tianzhou.

Sitting by the window were three people.

The three were of different ages: a young man about thirty, a middle-aged man dressed simply like a farmer, and an elderly man around sixty.

These three were none other than Huang Fuqi and Feng Guoguo.

As for the middle-aged man like a farmer, he was the Eleventh Grand Protector under Lord Military God, Chen Changsheng.

The three of them did not attract any attention in the teahouse, but if others knew their identities, chins would certainly drop in shock.

The location of the teahouse was not far from the Su Family, and from the window, one could even see the densely packed activities outside the Su Family.

Huang Fuqi took a sip of tea, looked at the people outside the Su Family, and smiled gently: ”Eleventh Brother, it seems the Su Family is in trouble this time. Although the Sunan King doesn’t have too much to do with us, he has contributed a lot in holding the southwestern land over the years. Shouldn’t we help?”

The Eleventh Grand Protector Chen Changsheng, who looked extremely honest, shook his head and said, ”Lord Military God has not ordered us to act. He just instructed me to monitor the dynamics of the southwestern land. If any people from the Eternal Life Hall appear, I should report to him immediately. As for other matters, without orders, we should not act rashly.”

”People from the Eternal Life Hall?” Huang Fuqi glanced at Chen Changsheng: ”Eleventh Brother, even if Wu Hualong and Zhou Wantong got everyone together, they couldn’t gather so many people. Are you saying there’s no one pulling the strings from behind?”

Chen Changsheng laughed, ”Indeed, all of this is the handiwork of the Yin Ghost Sect. In fact, I noticed when people from the Yin Ghost Sect appeared in Tianzhou.”

”Ah? Then why didn’t you intervene and are still watching the excitement here?” Huang Fuqi looked puzzled.

Chen Changsheng did not answer directly but looked at the Thirteenth Grand Protector Feng Guoguo: ”Thirteen, you tell them.”

Among the three, Feng Guoguo was the oldest but ranked the lowest. At this moment, he seemed a bit uneasy: ”Eleventh Brother, Twelfth Brother, at the time of the incident with the Eternal Life Hall in Jinling, you both already know, it was all thanks to Ye Guichen turning the tide. Coincidentally, Ye Guichen—Mr. Ye—is also at the Su Family right now. Lord Military God means that since Mr. Ye is present, we should hold off and wait for the outcome.”

”Wait for the result?” Huang Fuqi said as if he had heard a joke: ”Eleventh Brother, do you believe that Ye Guichen can deal with the Yin Ghost Sect? As far as I know, the Yin Ghost Sect’s Sect Master Gui Jianchou has even come, and the Taoist community is on high alert. If something goes wrong, the entire Tianzhou may suffer, and how do we explain to Lord Military God?”

Chen Changsheng smiled bitterly: ”This is Lord Military God’s intention, and I have no choice. However, having been with Lord Military God for some time, when have you seen him miss a beat?”

Huang Fuqi fell silent at those words.

He fiddled with the phone in his hand: ”I just called Ye Guichen, and it sounded quiet over there. Could it be that everything is settled? But this was such a short time, so many people surrounding the Su Family, the Su Family must be in chaos by now, and the Sunan King might be on the verge of death, can Ye Guichen do it?”

Just then, the people outside the Su Mansion suddenly became agitated.

The three of them stopped speaking and looked up.

A surprising scene unfolded before their eyes.

The group of people, initially highly tense, retreated like a tide; in just a few minutes, thousands disappeared without a trace.

Then, the gates of the Su Mansion opened.

Wu Hualong and Zhou Wantong’s party bowed to Su Cheng repeatedly, with extreme politeness, almost kowtowing before leaving.

This scene left Huang Fuqi the most astonished: ”It... it really got resolved?”

Feng Guoguo, however, appeared to take it for granted: ”Twelfth Brother, I’ve told you before, Mr. Ye’s methods are unfathomable. Initially, I hoped to surpass him one day, but later I realized, even after eight lifetimes, I couldn’t compete with him. Hehe, wherever Mr. Ye is, miracles are bound to happen. Here, even if the people of the Yin Ghost Sect came, and even the Witch God Sect joined them, today they would surely fall here too.”

Chen Changsheng showed an interested expression: ”It’s been a long time since Lord Military God has been so convinced by a young junior. Does he intend for this Ye Guichen to take over the Military God’s position?”

Huang Fuqi stared wide-eyed at Chen Changsheng, incredulous: ”Eleventh Brother, don’t joke around! In our hearts, there’s only one Military God. What makes this Ye Guichen kid qualified!”

Chen Changsheng shook his head gently, said no more, and changed the topic: ”The southwestern land will certainly face some turmoil during this time. Lord Military God has instructed me to stay stationed here until things quiet down before I leave. However, after this disturbance, the Eternal Life Hall will surely be on alert, and your trip will face even more danger.”

Huang Fuqi understood Chen Changsheng’s meaning.

For others, perhaps Gui Jianchou of the Yin Ghost Sect came with a purpose, but for the Hall Master of the Eternal Life Hall, it might have merely been a probe.

Gui Jianchou may just be the left-hand of the Eternal Life Hall, but the Eternal Life Hall likely has more than two hands, and it’s possible that the Hall Master has ten or eight arms as well.

Losing one Gui Jianchou might just be a probe, it’s possible too.
