My Silly, Sweet Wife

Wu Nuannuan was struck: ”According to you, even if those people find Hua Heshang’s treasure location, I’m afraid it would be a perilous discovery?”

”Miss Wu is smart!” Li Xiaosheng gave a thumbs up: ”There’s a saying, ’the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.’ Miss Wu, though I’m not particularly skilled, there’s little in this world that I’m unaware of. Hehe, if you stick with me, I absolutely won’t let you suffer any losses.”

Wu Nuannuan was somewhat surprised and gave Li Xiaosheng a glance, not expecting him to know so much.

On the other side, Ye Guichen naturally heard Guan Renwang talking about searching for Hua Heshang’s treasure, and asked intriguingly: ”Is there much treasure from Hua Heshang? Guan Renwang killed so many people just to snatch those treasures?”

Sun Li’s beautiful eyes widened: ”Mr. Ye, the things Hua Heshang has robbed over the years are astronomical. I’m not sure exactly how much, but once I heard my eldest sister mention it, even if it hasn’t reached a nation-wealth level, taking it out could make one the richest person in the Southwest Region.”

”So much?” Although the Su Family is powerful in the Southwest Region, they don’t have the most wealth.

According to Ye Guichen, the wealthiest in the Southwest Region seems to be surnamed Shen, and is said to be a descendant of Shen Wansan.

If the wealth was accumulated, it could rival the Feng Family in the Capital City.

Of course, Ye Guichen didn’t know the exact amount.

But listening to Sun Li, it seems no small amount. Even if it can’t match his Heavenly God Temple, perhaps it could reach half.

”Hehe, interesting. I’ll follow and take a look.” Ye Guichen stood up: ”You stay here and keep an eye on those people from the Brown Bear.”

”What, you’re going too?” Sun Li was startled: ”So many people under Guan Renwang, what use is it for you to go?”

”Don’t worry about it.” Ye Guichen was not only interested in Hua Heshang’s treasure, but also intrigued by the location itself.

After all, no matter how strong Hua Heshang is in martial arts, he can’t guard such treasures from being coveted daily.

Yet, it seems over the years, these treasures haven’t fallen into anyone else’s hands.

It’s impossible to say there’s no trickery involved.

Without waiting for Sun Li to try to persuade him again, Ye Guichen flashed and disappeared from her sight.

Sun Li rubbed her eyes incredulously, as if she’d seen a ghost.

”That speed, too fast!”

Ye Guichen silently followed behind Guan Renwang and his group.

Led by Lu Dahu, they walked over ten miles and encountered a rugged stone ridge.

In such a desert, sand is prevalent, but here it seems entirely unconnected to the desert, not only filled with jagged stones but those rocks seemed to be arranged in a strange array, covering quite a large area, probably dozens of acres.

”Second Master, this is the place.” Lu Dahu stopped, pointing at the distant stone ridge: ”Many of us know this place, but usually only see Hua Heshang going in. Some greedy individuals wanted to go in and take a look, but those who entered never came out.”

Lu Dahu was being truthful.

Over the years, the treasure Hua Heshang amassed has made many people envious.

But nobody who entered the stone ridge has ever emerged.

Guan Renwang had heard these tales before, but he never believed them.

”Ha, you’re all useless!”

However, he wasn’t so arrogant as to barge straight in and instead gestured with his hand.

Immediately, four or five subordinates armed with weapons entered the stone ridge.

From the outside, this stone ridge seemed completely ordinary.

But as soon as they entered, they appeared to lose their direction, merely circling around.

”Hey, what are you spinning around for?” Guan Renwang’s face darkened, shouting.

Yet, those individuals didn’t seem to hear him, continuing to rotate, and their speed increased.

A dozen minutes later, they were thoroughly exhausted but didn’t stop, instead showing an ecstatic expression and burst into maniacal laughter.

After a while, one person vomited blood and fell dead on the spot, twitching twice before becoming still.

Soon, more individuals fell.

Minutes later, those four or five individuals were all stiff-limbed, evidently dead.

”What the hell...”

Seeing this, even Guan Renwang was baffled.

”Damn, is it really that spooky here?” Unwilling to give up, Guan Renwang sent others inside again.

This time, they didn’t spin, but before long they started slaughtering each other, ultimately perishing together.

Guan Renwang’s face grew increasingly dissatisfied.

Originally thinking Hua Heshang’s treasure would be easy to get, it now seemed Hua Heshang’s tricks were indeed numerous.

”Damn, should’ve brought some of Hua Heshang’s men.” Guan Renwang regretted letting Kui Long kill all Hua Heshang’s underlings, his gaze fell on Lu Dahu, and he wielded the machete to Lu Dahu’s neck: ”Get in there!”

”Me?” Lu Dahu looked troubled: ”Second Master, I truly wish to follow you, but you saw earlier, it’s too dangerous inside. Going in means perilous discovery for sure!”

”Shut up, get in there or I’ll kill you now!” Guan Renwang glared, pressing the machete down further.

With no choice, Lu Dahu entered the stone ridge.

This time, however, nothing strange occurred.

Lu Dahu walked over a mile into the ridge, turned a corner, and suddenly vanished from Guan Renwang’s sight.

This scene left Guan Renwang stunned.

”Damn, did that guy trick me?” Guan Renwang slapped his forehead and muttered a curse, remembering the route Lu Dahu had taken, he instructed again: ”No, there must be a difference! Did you remember the route that guy took? Follow it!”

In Guan Renwang’s view, Lu Dahu surely knew the secrets within and intentionally let himself in.

Soon enough, someone followed Lu Dahu’s path and entered the ridge without incident.

This time, Guan Renwang was delighted and ordered everyone to follow the route in.

After Guan Renwang led almost a hundred people into the stone ridge, Ye Guichen appeared outside, staring at the ridge while musing.

”There’s an array here? Tsk tsk, does Hua Heshang really possess such ability?” Although Ye Guichen hadn’t interacted much with Hua Heshang, he could see that Hua Heshang didn’t seem like a person skilled in arrays.

From the outside, this stone ridge appeared mundane, but it must have been set up by a master of arrays.

Moreover, in such a desert, while sand blows continually year after year, not a single grain has entered, truly impossible.

”Could there be a master of arrays living here?” Ye Guichen furrowed his brows, thought for a moment, and decided to enter and take a look.
