My Silly, Sweet Wife

”How, how is this possible?”

Jitian was full of disbelief, looking at Ye Guichen in horror.

Then, the next second, a blood mist splattered.

Jitian’s body exploded directly in half, blood and flesh scattered into the lake.

The lake rippled for a while, and countless fish seemed to smell the scent and swam over, feasting eagerly.

Silence!

The surroundings were silent.

Even the sound of breathing seemed to have stopped.

The people on the shore stared intently at the center of the lake.

After the lake water slowly drifted down, only a silhouette appeared.

Apart from being slightly wet, that figure still stood proudly.

And the previously overbearing Jitian was mysteriously nowhere to be seen.

”Did he win?”

”Where’s Jitian? Why is he missing?”

”Could he be dead?”

”Even if he’s dead, we should see the body, right?”

Someone questioned softly.

However, the battle at Tai Lake completely made Ye Guichen famous.

Especially the Immortal Slayer Sword in Ye Guichen’s hand, which became the focus of everyone’s speculation.

”Without disappointment!”

Ye Guichen raised his head and spoke lightly.

Wow!

The crowd erupted.

Everyone shouted excitedly.

”He really won!”

”Mr. Ye really won!”

”Incredible!”

”Haha, the Hua Country Martial Arts is unbeatable!”

Like a dream come true, hearing Ye Guichen personally confirm it, everyone shouted excitedly.

Even Wen Cangfeng and others showed expressions of disbelief, one by one.

If it wasn’t seen with their own eyes, they probably wouldn’t have believed everything they saw.

Besides, judging by Ye Guichen’s appearance, he seemed completely unharmed.

”Did he really win?” Jin Ling’s gaze flickered, mumbling to herself.

However, among the crowd, someone frowned.

”How is this possible? The sword in that guy’s hand seems unusual. It can easily neutralize Jitian’s Blade Slash. Could it be the legendary Immortal Artifact?”

Fang Tiancheng stroked his chin, pondering, his gaze constantly fixed on Ye Guichen, unsure of what he was thinking.

Finally, Fang Tiancheng seemed to make some sort of decision, his lips curling slightly: ”Alright, let’s do this!”

The battle at Tai Lake.

Ye Guichen completely made a name for himself.

Moreover, the Hua Country Martial Arts World directly promoted Ye Guichen to the top position of the Heavenly Ranking.

Even Chu Tiannan found it incredible.

He even publicly stated that the waves of the Yangtze River push forward, and each generation surpasses the previous.

By implication, he admitted that Ye Guichen was even more formidable than him.

The voices of doubt directed at Chu Tiannan also transformed into praise.

One by one, they praised Chu Tiannan for his sharp eye, taking Ye Guichen as a disciple despite the pressure.

Furthermore, Ye Guichen was recognized as the successor of the next Military God.

Ye Guichen, naturally, didn’t care about these.

Although he killed Jitian with one sword, he also felt unprecedented fatigue.

Rejecting all invitations to celebrate, Ye Guichen returned to the villa once more.

Since it was a residence arranged by Chu Tiannan, Ye Guichen naturally had no reason not to stay.

After this battle, Ye Guichen had a strong urge to sleep for three days and nights.

However, upon returning to the villa, Ye Guichen saw an uninvited guest in the living room.

”How did you get in?” Ye Guichen frowned slightly, looking at Fang Tiancheng sitting on the sofa.

The array set outside by Chu Tiannan at the villa wasn’t easy to penetrate. Although Fang Tiancheng was King Qin’s man, it wasn’t easy to sneak in silently.

Moreover, Little Black was also in the villa’s yard, not allowing Fang Tiancheng to come in.

Fang Tiancheng grinned: ”This array is powerful, but it still can’t stump me. Haha, back in the day, I got a treasure at the Ghost Market, which not only shields my aura but also makes me invisible within arrays, so unless the array is strong enough, I can still come and go as I please.”

Fang Tiancheng spoke while standing up and cupped his fists towards Ye Guichen: ”Mr. Ye, please don’t misunderstand, previously I was quite offensive, today I came specifically to apologize to you.”

Ye Guichen didn’t expect Fang Tiancheng to be so courteous, but hearing about the Ghost Market made his heart stir with longing.

A treasure that can shield aura and arrays is definitely valuable.

Although his martial arts had reached a considerable level, his understanding of this world was still limited.

Previously, Ye Guichen had heard Luo Shentong talk about the Ghost Market, today was the second time he heard about it.

He wasn’t afraid of Fang Tiancheng taking action.

Now, with the Immortal Slayer Sword in his hand, and the Evergreen Technique reaching the third realm, to obliterate someone like Fang Tiancheng would simply be a flick of the wrist.

”Apologize?” Ye Guichen sneered, sitting down casually, ”What if I don’t accept your apology?”

Ye Guichen guessed Fang Tiancheng’s strong stance had changed immensely perhaps because he had already learned about what happened at Tai Lake and knew that if he used force, he wouldn’t be able to handle him, hence he wanted to try a softer approach.

Fang Tiancheng didn’t expect Ye Guichen to be so unyielding, and laughed awkwardly: ”Mr. Ye, don’t harbor too much hostility towards me. Actually, I’m just following King Qin’s orders to bring you back, there’s no malice.”

”If there’s nothing else, should I see you off or should I make you stay here forever?” Ye Guichen casually brushed the Immortal Slayer Sword.

Fang Tiancheng shivered in fear.

Having witnessed the battle at Tai Lake firsthand, Fang Tiancheng knew he was definitely no match for Ye Guichen.

But today, Fang Tiancheng came to extend goodwill to Ye Guichen, if his thoughts were confirmed, in the future, he might soar to great heights, stepping over King Qin might even be possible.

Seeking riches amidst danger.

Missing this opportunity might mean he’d never have it again.

”Mr. Ye, please don’t rush. At your age, having such cultivation truly commands respect. Hence, I just want to ask you one question, after which I’ll leave immediately and never disturb you again.” Fang Tiancheng humbly lowered his stance, shedding his previous arrogance completely.

Ye Guichen was actually keen to understand more about the hidden sects, so he took advantage of the situation: ”What do you want to ask?”

”Are you the Son of Nether Emperor?” Fang Tiancheng hesitated a little, then immediately asked the question, staring intently into Ye Guichen’s eyes as if trying to discern something from them.

Ye Guichen had already suspected, but hearing Fang Tiancheng ask outright, he lazily smiled: ”What if I am? What if I’m not?”

One sentence, plain and indifferent, seemingly with no inflection.

But in Fang Tiancheng’s ears, it carried another meaning.

Actually, this suspicion was not only in Fang Tiancheng’s mind but when the Eternal Life Hall at Great Cold Mountain was destroyed, it had already caused King Qin to have doubts.

Although the specifics of Great Cold Mountain hadn’t been spread, the Great Ming King appeared, and the Witch God Sect surprisingly chose to submit to Ye Guichen, which made King Qin baffled.

Later, he thought of a possibility.

Whether it’s the Great Ming King or the Witch God Sect, both had served the Netherworld Emperor before.

If Ye Guichen were the Son of Nether Emperor, then it would all make sense.
