My Silly, Sweet Wife

”Squeak, squeak, squeak!”

Accompanied by the talisman paper flying into the air and burning to ashes, a piercing scream resembling a mouse rang out.

Then, the dirt in front of Ye Guichen loosened a bit, and a rat the size of a fully grown cat directly sprang onto the stone in front of Luo Shentong.

Its eyes swirled as it looked at Luo Shentong, then bared its sharp teeth, presenting a ferocious demeanor, seemingly warning Luo Shentong.

Luo Shentong hurriedly said, ”We mean no harm, there were misunderstandings before.”

”Squeak!”

The large rat seemed utterly uninterested in talking to Luo Shentong, glanced at Ye Guichen, and suddenly leaped upwards, actually reaching for Luo Shentong’s face.

Luo Shentong was startled and backed away hastily.

Yet even so, his face was still scratched, leaving a clear bloodstain.

At the same time, after scratching Luo Shentong, the rat’s back paws landed on Luo Shentong’s shoulder, and it leaped towards Ye Guichen, seemingly wanting to warn him too.

Ye Guichen hadn’t expected a rat could grow so large, and judging by its stance, it indeed had some tricks.

But Ye Guichen had no intention of holding back, he flipped his hand and slapped the large rat, sending it flying.

”Squeak, squeak, squeak!”

The large rat rolled over and over, stood up shakily, seemingly surprised by Ye Guichen’s powerful methods.

It appeared quite angry, unwilling to reason with Ye Guichen, accompanied by shrieks, rustling sounds came from around.

Then, Ye Guichen witnessed a scene that made his hair stand on end.

Unexpectedly, several hundred rats appeared around, seemingly emerging from nowhere.

However, most of these rats were the size of regular mice, not nearly as large as the one Ye Guichen had just slapped away.

Luo Shentong was so scared his face turned pale, wanting to explain, but Ye Guichen interrupted: ”Looks like the rats have taken over this place, but not all rats can grow so large, they have no intention to negotiate with us.”

As he spoke, Ye Guichen didn’t hold back, slightly curling the corner of his mouth, moving his feet.

The next second, he was in front of the large rat.

With a swift grasp, he effortlessly captured the large rat in his hand.

The other rats were shocked, terrified to approach.

Ye Guichen chuckled, swiftly taking the Golden Serpent Dagger, and directly severed the large rat’s tail.

The large rat let out a series of wails, its eyes showing a human-like expression of terror.

The other rats didn’t expect their rat king to be so vulnerable against this person’s power, squeaking in panic, unable to get close.

Ye Guichen didn’t waste words, quickly utilizing the Evergreen Technique on the captured large rat.

Now, Ye Guichen’s Evergreen Technique had advanced to the second level, not only easily repairing meridians, but also capable of restoring a rat’s tail.

Of course, if the internal organs were harmed, Ye Guichen’s current abilities might not suffice.

In less than a minute, under the repair of Ye Guichen’s Evergreen Technique, the large rat’s severed tail grew back again.

The large rat ceased its cries, staring at Ye Guichen in awe, as if gazing upon a True Immortal.

Luo Shentong found Ye Guichen’s methods unbelievable, yet remained silent, unsure of Ye Guichen’s intentions.

”So, still want to fight me?” Ye Guichen tossed the large rat to the ground: ”You should know, you can’t win against me. So, I advise you to negotiate with me! Of course, I won’t take your Spirit Stones, I’ll arrange a good place for you later, how about that?”

The large rat squeaked twice, seemingly truly understanding Ye Guichen’s words, shaking its head vigorously, then stood up on its hind legs, suddenly bowing down, lowering its head, as if kowtowing to Ye Guichen.

Luo Shentong was stunned.

Ye Guichen seemed to have expected this outcome.

Currently, this Spirit Stone mine has numerous Spirit Stones, and it’s been dominated by the large rat, driving away other creatures, yet only it has managed to grow so large from the Spirit Stones.

After all, it’s like talent; different individuals exhibit differing abilities under the same cultivation resources.

”Alright, let the other rats leave, they can do what they will. If you really want to follow me, I can agree to let you.”

As soon as Ye Guichen spoke, the large rat squeaked twice, and the ordinary rats scattered like a retreating tide.

Dragon Tomb Peak is not large, but this mountain range isn’t small, those rats will survive even if they leave Dragon Tomb Peak; there certainly are many places they can go.

The large rat eagerly gazed at Ye Guichen, full of hope.

It was Ye Guichen’s first encounter with such an animal possessing Spiritual Sense, watching the large rat treating him as a deity, he laughed heartily, ”What’s your name?”

The large rat appeared puzzled, thought for a long time, then shook its head.

Ye Guichen nodded: ”Okay, seeing as you don’t have a name, I’ll call you Hua Sheng, since you like peanuts.”

”Squeak, squeak, squeak!” The large rat was delighted, nodding energetically.

Luo Shentong was utterly bewildered: ”Boss, this large rat wants to follow you?”

”Yes, you saw it, it seems very interested in my methods.”

”But, but this creature, it’s an animal!”

”Squeak!” Upon hearing this, the large rat suddenly lifted its head to stare at Luo Shentong, baring its small teeth, looking ferocious, frightening Luo Shentong to retreat several steps.

Yet Ye Guichen grew increasingly fond of the large rat.

This rat wasn’t inherently bad; possessing the intelligence of a child over ten years old, if it had wanted to kill, biting through the excavator’s support shaft would have caused death.

However, it only caused damage, not harm, proving the large rat could be redeemed.

If it received proper training, it might even transform into a human someday.

Thinking this, Ye Guichen felt thrilled.

What would a rat transforming into a human be like?

”Luo Shentong, if you have nothing else, stay here at Dragon Tomb Peak, you’ll handle the feng shui when building the villa, I’ll leave now.”

Ye Guichen patted Luo Shentong’s shoulder amidst his shocked expression, turned, and headed down the mountain, simultaneously calling Chen Ziran, notifying her that work could resume, without needing to worry about any large rats popping out.

The large rat followed Ye Guichen like a loyal dog.

Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, Shang Wen Dong and his group saw a large rat trailing Ye Guichen, feeling a shiver down their spines.

Shang Wen Dong approached, intending to stomp the rat dead.

Ye Guichen stopped him: ”Leave it be, it’s called Hua Sheng, from now on it’s with me.”
