My Silly, Sweet Wife

When Ye Guichen was on the mountain before, he often dealt with these wild animals.

Although most of these creatures are not very smart, they bully the weak and fear the strong.

Knowing that he’s stronger than them, they would only lower their heads and look for an opportunity.

However, if you display your strength and show a little goodwill, they can easily be tamed to become your henchmen.

So, after Ye Guichen skinned the bear, he directly cut a piece of meat and threw it in front of a nearby wolf.

The wolf was surprised, not expecting Ye Guichen to give it the meat. It hesitated for just a moment before swallowing it whole, then stared at Ye Guichen again, with the hostility in its eyes disappearing.

Among this group of wild beasts, the bear’s combat power was evidently strong.

Since Ye Guichen could kill the bear in one move, it was enough to prove Ye Guichen’s prowess.

Seeing Ye Guichen’s actions, Yang Hongfu couldn’t help but be stunned: ”Brother Ye, what do you mean by this?”

”Hehe, just finding some henchmen to deal with those people later!” Ye Guichen smiled, quickly slicing the bear meat again and tossing it around.

Soon, more than half of the bear’s large body was gone.

Around Ye Guichen, however, had gathered more than a dozen wild beasts, including snakes, wolves, and even a fierce tiger.

They each stared at Ye Guichen’s hands, drooling, much like wild animals in a zoo waiting to be fed.

Yang Hongfu was completely dumbfounded, never expecting Ye Guichen to be capable of this.

Ye Guichen stopped his actions and said to the surroundings: ”You retreat first, and when someone comes, I’ll signal for you to come out. Of course, if you listen to me, there will be more delicious food later.”

The beasts seemed to truly understand and retreated.

”Brother Ye, you, you understand animal language?” Yang Hongfu swallowed, somewhat incredulous.

Ye Guichen laughed, ”I wouldn’t say I understand it. When I was in the mountains before, I often tried to communicate with some wild animals and roughly learned how to deal with them. Actually, they’re smarter than we think and can often understand our intentions by observing our expressions.”

Yang Hongfu was completely convinced, giving a thumbs-up: ”What’s your plan then?”

”No specific plan, let’s capture a tongue first, or else we won’t know when this will end.” Ye Guichen already sensed that Luo Huasheng and the others hadn’t followed.

Although unsure what they were up to, with Xuanyuan Wudi around, there shouldn’t be any danger.

The immediate priority is to find them before the Eternal Life Hall reacts, and then take the whole hall down, which would be a complete resolution.

Moreover, according to Xuanyuan Wudi’s speculation, there’s a strong possibility that the Seven Kings have influence behind this Eternal Life Hall.

If so, Ye Guichen could learn more about the Seven Kings, gaining more assurance to face them in the future.

Next, Ye Guichen and Yang Hongfu began to grill meat over the fire, eating bear meat.

Honestly, bear meat tasted quite good, even more chewy than the legendary bear paw, surprisingly similar to wild beef.

Lighting a fire naturally attracted the attention of the Witch God Sect people.

Elder An Long, along with several Witch God Sect Disciples and Donglang Shangjing, were secretly following Ye Guichen. Initially afraid of Ye Guichen discovering them, they didn’t follow too closely, so they missed Ye Guichen’s bear-killing and feeding the animals.

However, when they lurked not far away, seeing Ye Guichen and Yang Hongfu actually eating, they were taken aback.

To have the heart to eat meat at such a time really required nerve.

Didn’t they know dangers lurked everywhere, and perhaps even a tiny insect could take their lives, let alone the impending nightfall?

Once night falls, even the Witch God Sect people dare not stay here easily.

”Haha, they certainly are arrogant enough.” Elder An Long sneered, ”Since they don’t know what’s best for them, let’s play with them first.”

Elder An Long wasn’t planning to wait any longer, directly put his hand to his mouth, and let out strange sounds.

Then, countless rustling sounds began to echo.

Donglang Shangjing looked up, scared to the core.

”Is that witchcraft?”

Countless snakes and insects could be seen drilling out from who knew where, starting to congregate around Ye Guichen and Yang Hongfu.

Back in the Eastern Ninja Sect, Donglang Shangjing had heard that Hua Country had powerful and extremely mysterious witchcraft, some creating illusions, some turning corpses into fighting tools, and others even controlling snakes and poisonous creatures.

But all along, Donglang Shangjing only heard about it, never saw it with his own eyes. Seeing it now was indeed chilling.

He suddenly realized he had underestimated Hua Country’s Martial Arts World.

Even though Japan has some similar witchcraft-like practices, with people controlling spirits to achieve enemy domination, those practitioners are largely revered and kept near the Emperor, rarely appearing before the public eye, let alone witnessed.

But Donglang Shangjing found that it seemed anyone in Hua Country possessed unpredictable methods.

The Elder An Long before him seemed terrifying enough as merely an elder, imagine how frightening the Witch God Sect Master must be?

If a real battle ensues, even a Grandmaster might find it hard to utilize their skills.

”Looks like we’ll have to find a way to make them kill each other, or else it would certainly be disadvantageous for Japan!” Donglang Shangjing decided secretly that only by stirring conflict between the Witch God Sect and the Brigade could Japan reap benefits.

Meanwhile, hearing the rustling, Yang Hongfu swallowed the meat in his mouth and stood up quickly, scanning with his eyes to spot those snakes and insects.

”Damn! They’re really here!”

Yang Hongfu quickly took out talisman paper and some medicinal powder, prepared to drive away those snakes and insects.

Ye Guichen, however, calmly said, ”Master Yang, why rush? Instead of endlessly dealing with snakes and insects, how about facing the visitors directly?”

Then Ye Guichen tossed a bone towards Elder An Long’s direction.

Swoosh!

The bone pierced through the air, hitting one of the disciples near Elder An Long on the head.

The disciple didn’t respond in time and fell to the ground.

Seeing this, An Long turned his head, his pupils shrinking involuntarily.

The bone had pierced into the disciple’s forehead, killing him directly.

”We’ve been discovered!”

Elder An Long’s face darkened, no longer hiding his actions, instructing another disciple: ”You go back immediately and report to the Sect Hierarch about what happened here.”

Then, he glanced at Donglang Shangjing: ”And tell the hierarch about his matter, let the hierarch decide!”

”Understood!” The disciple agreed, turned, and swiftly left.

Donglang Shangjing wanted to follow to see the Witch God Sect Master but was pulled back by An Long: ”Mr. Donglang, want to meet some old friends with me?”

Donglang Shangjing was now extremely fearful of Ye Guichen, hearing he’d be meeting Ye Guichen made him shiver.

”Elder An Long, th-that guy is very powerful, I-I’ll wait here for you, alright?” Donglang Shangjing stammered.
