My Silly, Sweet Wife

Ye Guichen calmly put away the Compass and threw a bone at his feet.

The little black dog wagged its tail, swallowed the bone in one bite, without even chewing.

Ye Guichen felt somewhat helpless.

The stomach of this little black dog was like a bottomless pit. Tonight, he had secretly fed it several pounds of bones, yet the little black dog showed no sign of being full.

However, remembering that the little black dog was not an ordinary dog at all, Ye Guichen understood.

Just as he was about to bid farewell to the Martial Arts Hall Master, the Master drew closer, a flush evident on his cheeks, clearly drunk.

”Mr. Ye, your skills have truly opened my eyes. In my lifetime, I’ve only ever seen one person with such skills, and that’s Lord Military God. If I may speak boldly, your skills are not weaker than the Military God’s, but stronger.”

The Martial Arts Hall Master was convinced and impressed; earlier, he didn’t dare to speak, but now, having drunk too much, he didn’t care about much else.

Ye Guichen humbly replied: ”The Martial Arts Hall Master is too kind.”

”Of course I’m not just being polite!” The Hall Master suddenly held Ye Guichen’s shoulder: ”Brother Ye, you excel in both medical and martial arts and are still so young. Your future achievements will surely not be inferior to Lord Military God’s. However, today, by killing the Eastern Ninja Sect’s leader, you acted too rashly.”

Ye Guichen showed a look of interest: ”What do you mean?”

”Ah, what else could it mean? You should know, the Eastern Ninja Sect has deep ties with Japan. The death of their leader will surely attract Japan’s attention. Moreover, it’s said that the Eastern Ninja Sect leader was a disciple of Iaido. If Iaido learns that you killed the sect leader, they will likely come for you.”

”Iaido?” Ye Guichen asked curiously.

The Martial Arts Hall Master sighed: ”Surely Mr. Ye knows? Iaido has a history of thousands of years. It’s said to be a powerful dual-sword organization held in high esteem in Japan. During wartime, Iaido members came to Hua Country and formed a killing squad, slaying countless of our Hua Country martial artists, even killing one who was then known as Hua Country’s First Blade, Duan Nanmen. Since then, Iaido has gained fame. Over the years, our Hua Country Martial Arts World has tried to oppose them, but...”

Here, the Martial Arts Hall Master stopped speaking, clearly also showing some apprehension.

Regarding Duan Nanmen, Ye Guichen had heard stories years earlier.

It was said he was a Grandmaster, wielding the blade technique ”Heaven and Earth One Slash,” capable of killing even the strongest opponents with one strike.

During Japan’s invasion, Duan Nanmen also joined the war, slaying thousands with one slash, making Japan wary of him.

But later, he vanished without a trace.

Now it seems he was likely killed by people from Iaido.

”Iaido is that strong?” Ye Guichen hadn’t expected Iaido to be so formidable.

The Martial Arts Hall Master nodded: ”Not only that, their leader is said to have reached the Great Grandmaster Realm, capable of splitting waterfalls with a single slash. If a real fight breaks out, even our Chu’s Military God might...”

Ye Guichen gently shook his head: ”The Military God is formidable in the corps. Hua Country Martial Arts is vast and profound; surely someone is capable of challenging their leader?”

”Indeed, but true recluses only seek mastery in martial arts and rarely get involved in such matters. That’s the problem!” The Martial Arts Hall Master patted Ye Guichen’s shoulder: ”News of today’s events will quickly reach Japan, and Iaido will certainly not let it rest. No matter what, you must be careful!”

In the Hall Master’s eyes, Ye Guichen was the hope of Hua Country Martial Arts World and must not come to harm.

”By the way, if you have no place to reside, you’re welcome to stay at my Martial Arts Hall. If Iaido dare to come for you, I’ll fight with my life to ensure your safety!” The Hall Master looked at Ye Guichen with blazing eyes.

Ye Guichen forced a slight smile: ”Thank you for your kindness, Martial Arts Hall Master. If the Iaido people dare seek revenge, let them come. Haha, one comes, I kill one; two come, I kill two!”

”Great! Mr. Ye, I love your dominance!” The Martial Arts Hall Master felt a good rapport with Ye Guichen, raised his glass, and was about to toast Ye Guichen again when sudden screams were heard from outside the room.

”Woof woof woof!” The little black dog also suddenly barked loudly, looked at Ye Guichen, and then turned to run out.

Those in the room were already somewhat tipsy, most of them martial artists, high-ranking members of the Martial Arts Association.

Someone, displeased by the noise, shouted: ”Go check what’s going on!”

Someone immediately ran out.

Soon, that person returned.

Following the person was a hotel staff member.

The staff member’s face was pale, knowing the people in this room were not to be trifled with, nervously explaining: ”Everyone, there’s been an incident in the hotel. The boss said tonight’s meal is on the house, no charge for you, but if you could, please leave soon.”

”Hell, we’re here to eat, and haven’t even finished enjoying it, why should we leave?” Someone slammed the table and stood up: ”What happened? If someone’s causing trouble, tell them we’re from the Martial Arts Association, and if anyone dares cause trouble, I’ll kill them with a slap!”

Clearly, these Martial Arts Association members were usually very domineering.

The staff member gave an awkward smile, swallowed nervously: ”Someone... someone jumped off a building!”

”What?” Everyone was shocked: ”What do you mean?”

”Someone jumped from the third floor of the hotel into the lobby, so...” The staff member didn’t finish the sentence, but it was evident he wanted the people in the room to leave quickly.

Upon hearing someone had died, the Martial Arts Association members felt uneasy, realizing the meal couldn’t continue, all turning to look at Ye Guichen.

After all, Ye Guichen was the main character today.

Ye Guichen frowned.

Just now, the Compass spun rapidly, possibly indicating a ghost’s presence. Could it be related to the ghost?

Thinking of this, Ye Guichen also stood up: ”I’m full, let’s not complicate things here. Let’s go out and have a look.”

Seeing Ye Guichen speak, the Martial Arts Hall Master immediately stood up: ”Yes, yes, let’s hurry up and leave!”

The staff member glanced at Ye Guichen gratefully: ”Thank you, thank you, sir.”

Ye Guichen nodded, walked to the staff member, and quietly asked: ”What exactly happened? Tell me in detail.”

The staff member had a good impression of Ye Guichen, and upon arrival, they had heard he killed the Eastern Ninja, which garnered admiration; seeing Ye Guichen ask, he didn’t hesitate to reply: ”It’s like this, I don’t know what happened. Just now, someone suddenly jumped from the third floor of the hotel into the lobby; now it’s chaos in the lobby, and the manager has ordered us to evacuate all guests and seal off the site.”
