My Silly, Sweet Wife

Boom!

As soon as Xuanyuan Wudi spoke, it instantly caused an uproar.

If they hadn’t heard it with their own ears, neither Luo Huasheng nor Gongsun Fengying would have believed it as anything but a fantasy.

Immortal bloodline?

Moreover, Ye Guichen’s mother was highly likely to be a cultivator?

Even though Ye Guichen’s heart was strong, he couldn’t help but feel a bit shocked: ”Where did you get this evidence?”

Xuanyuan Wudi continued, ”The 108 scrolls of the Esoteric Sect, the first scroll is already extremely profound, and each scroll cannot be comprehended by ordinary people. Even if one has exceptional talent in martial arts, it’s impossible to create such advanced cultivation techniques. However, back then, your father, the Netherworld Emperor, happened to acquire the Xuanming Prison Suppressing Technique, yet initially understood nothing about it, not even able to grasp it. But after meeting your mother, that Xuanming Prison Suppressing Technique seemed to reveal itself naturally, and his cultivation progressed smoothly. Yet, even so, the Netherworld Emperor never completed the Xuanming Prison Suppressing Technique and died bitterly, while your mother…”

At this point, Xuanyuan Wudi seemed a bit hesitant to continue.

Ye Guichen’s face turned somewhat grim.

If the predictions are correct, his mother likely left in anger because the Netherworld Emperor found a new love.

In other words, if he truly is the Son of the Nether Emperor, then his mother might still be alive?

At the thought of this possibility, Ye Guichen couldn’t help but feel a bit excited: ”Senior Xuanyuan, if my mother really is a cultivator, is she still on this Earth?”

Xuanyuan Wudi chuckled ironically: ”Young Master, although cultivators are much stronger than martial artists, they haven’t yet reached the point of being omnipotent, making it hard to leave Earth. However, Earth is far more vast than we can imagine, and it’s possible that many hidden immortal abodes are concealed in unknown places. Moreover, back then, I only met your mother a few times and was already amazed by her heavenly presence; her extraordinary demeanor left no trace of evil. In my eyes, without your mother, there would be no Netherworld Emperor, and your mother…”

At this point, Xuanyuan Wudi suddenly choked with emotion, seemed a bit agitated, and laughed hoarsely: ”Young Master, knowing too much about your mother isn’t necessarily a good thing. Let’s first focus on getting through our current situation.”

Ye Guichen collected his thoughts, acknowledging the truth in Xuanyuan Wudi’s words.

He hadn’t even entered the Hidden Gate yet, and dreaming of touching the unreachable Immortal Cultivation Technique was simply naive.

Although wanting to know more, Ye Guichen suppressed his inner doubts: ”Senior Xuanyuan, you said these water monkeys are raised by King Qin, do you have evidence?”

”Haha, while others in the world pursue personal immortality, King Qin seeks immortality after death. He always believed that after death, whether consciousness or the body, could still exist. If consciousness can be bound within the physical body, it achieves a subtle balance, making one appear in a state of immortality, indestructible and eternal.”

”Thus, he has deeply researched bodies, and even the art of corpse driving in the secular world was likely greatly influenced by him. Moreover, he not only delved deeply into the study of corpses but also specifically revived ancient corpses from tombs to nurture them as his battle generals, serving his command. Raising these water monkeys is probably just one of his methods; even the people of the Witch God Sect couldn’t possibly raise so many water monkeys at once.”

Upon hearing Xuanyuan Wudi’s words, everyone was shocked.

Especially Gongsun Fengying and Luo Huasheng, it was like hearing about an entirely new mystical world, and they seemed as ignorant as novices.

”Help, help me…”

Just then, a weak voice emanated from the bushes not far away.

The group simultaneously turned their heads towards the bushes.

Luo Huasheng picked up the Hunyuan Iron Rod first: ”I’ll go take a look.”

Then, he cautiously walked to the edge of the bushes.

The grass was over a person’s height, and being at the edge of the Great Cold Mountain, after the swamp incident, people from the Eternal Life Hall would likely soon discover their presence.

At a time like this, they couldn’t afford to be careless.

Luo Huasheng used the long rod to part the bushes, revealing a person covered in blood and dirt lying inside.

The other person’s arm was gone, and his body was covered in a mixture of mud and blood, appearing to be dying.

However, Luo Huasheng quickly recognized who it was.

”Li Jianyi?”

Luo Huasheng hadn’t expected the person to be Li Jianyi from Wan Jian Villa, whom they had encountered before.

”Help me, please, save me!” Li Jianyi seemed to have just woken from a coma, managed to open his eyes, and was both surprised and delighted when he saw Luo Huasheng, reaching out for help.

Luo Huasheng held no particular fondness for Li Jianyi, merely glanced at him, and quickly reported to Ye Guichen: ”Brother Ye, it’s Li Jianyi inside; he seems to have escaped from the swamp.”

”He’s not dead?” Ye Guichen was indeed surprised, without hesitation, he quickly reached the bushes and pulled Li Jianyi out.

No matter what, Li Jianyi was still a life, despite having grudges with them, now was clearly not the time to let someone die.

Li Jianyi might even reveal some information Ye Guichen was interested in.

After laying Li Jianyi flat, Ye Guichen saw that although he had lost an arm, it was mainly due to excessive blood loss; other injuries were largely superficial.

Ye Guichen quickly activated a few pressure points on Li Jianyi to stop the bleeding, then used the Yimu Evergreen Technique to heal Li Jianyi.

Originally on the verge of death, Li Jianyi slowly regained consciousness, opened his eyes, and a complex expression flashed in his gaze when he saw Ye Guichen and the others: ”You, you all…”

”No need to say much, I didn’t save you seeking a reward. We’ve been to the swamp too; did you escape from there?” Ye Guichen didn’t want to waste words with Li Jianyi.

As soon as Ye Guichen mentioned the swamp, Li Jianyi’s pupils shrank, and his face filled with terror: ”Those things are terrifying, everyone from Wan Jian Villa is dead, all dead!”

Suddenly remembering something, Li Jianyi swiftly lifted his head, incredulously looking at Ye Guichen and the others: ”You, you all didn’t die?”

”Damn, Brother Ye saved you, and you’re hoping we died?” Luo Huasheng’s expression darkened, snappily retorted.

Li Jianyi looked at Ye Guichen in disbelief, then swiftly assessed his own body, and his expression grew even more shocked: ”How, how did you do it?”

Li Jianyi felt he must die, surrounded by so many water monkeys, most of his injuries external, yet having fled so far with severe blood loss and significant depletion of vitality.

Moreover, there was no healing medicine around here; even the best medical skills might struggle to pull him back from the brink.

He only cried out previously in a desperate urge to survive after hearing people nearby.

But now, after checking his body, Li Jianyi found that aside from the torn-off arm, seemingly all was well.

How is this possible?

Ye Guichen ignored Li Jianyi’s shock and instead asked, ”Why did you go to Great Cold Mountain? Also, what do you know, I hope you won’t hide anything.”
