My Silly, Sweet Wife

Hua Xiangrong did not want to waste words with Ye Guichen, she just turned her gaze towards Gongyang Lang.

Gongyang Lang stood in front of Ye Guichen, as if he was bearing all the pressure.

This scene made a strange light flash in Hua Xiangrong’s eyes.

”My business, you don’t need to interfere!” Gongyang Lang said confidently.

But that silent gesture seemed to convey something.

Could it be related to this young lad?

Hua Xiangrong once again put her eyes on Ye Guichen: ”The recovery of your Dantian, is it related to this young lad?”

”No connection!” Gongyang Lang instinctively shouted.

If Hua Xiangrong knew that Ye Guichen has such abilities, and then took an interest in him, his own life would probably be forfeit.

Even if it’s for his own life, he must protect Ye Guichen.

Yes, it must be this way.

And also, it must be done without Hua Xiangrong finding out.

But the more he worried about Ye Guichen, the more curious Hua Xiangrong became, like a situation where the truth is often revealed when trying too hard to hide it.

Finally, Hua Xiangrong laughed heartily: ”I see, I see! Although I don’t know what abilities this young lad has, I have become interested in him!”

As she spoke, Hua Xiangrong flicked her hand, and the silk on her wrist flew towards Ye Guichen like a rainbow.

Gongyang Lang hurriedly tried to block, but just as he raised his hand, it was already bound by the silk.

Hua Xiangrong flicked again, directly tossing Gongyang Lang aside.

The silk wrapped itself around Ye Guichen’s waist.

Then with a gentle pull, Hua Xiangrong drew Ye Guichen over to herself: ”Young lad, you are interesting. Since it’s like this, then come with me first!”

Holding Ye Guichen, like a fairy, she swept towards the outside while her voice rang out: ”Gongyang Lang, if you want this lad to live, you’d better obediently follow me! Haha, I can tell, you care a lot about this lad!”

Gongyang Lang’s face was full of frustration.

If he were at his peak, Gongyang Lang might be able to match Hua Xiangrong.

But now that his Dantian was just beginning to recover, he was naturally no match for Hua Xiangrong.

Seeing Ye Guichen being taken away, Gongyang Lang was naturally anxious: ”Leave the person!”

He chased out at full speed.

At the same time, Housekeeper Hu led people to stand outside the Jixiang Restaurant.

”Housekeeper Hu, with the Great Demon King personally stepping in this time, we can definitely capture Ye Guichen, right?” someone asked softly.

Housekeeper Hu nodded: ”Rest assured, that lad will definitely be ours. If we can bring him back and present him to King Qin, we’ll be heroes. Once King Qin becomes the Netherworld Emperor, we’ll be founding contributors, having titles of nobility will be no issue.”

The spies around heard this and one by one showed joyous expressions, quickly flattering: ”Thanks to the nurturing leadership of Housekeeper Hu, we have people numbering well over a thousand in this Ghost Market, led wisely by Housekeeper Hu. Even after we prosper, we’ll never forget Housekeeper Hu’s cultivation.”

”Haha, well said, well said!” Housekeeper Hu was not worried about any more screw-ups now.

The Ghost Market is the territory of the Great Demon King, as long as the Great Demon King steps in, Gongyang Lang is bound to be subdued.

By then, it’ll be easy to get Ye Guichen.

After all, Ye Guichen is just a minor Martial Artist, the Great Demon King certainly wouldn’t have the slightest interest in him.

Just as they were discussing, a figure darted out from the Jixiang Restaurant.

Everyone in Housekeeper Hu’s group fixed their eyes, their mouths twitching.

The figure was none other than the Great Demon King, Hua Xiangrong.

What’s more, Hua Xiangrong had a young man in her arms.

The posture seemed somewhat ambiguous.

The young man’s face showed no panic, instead seeming to enjoy Hua Xiangrong’s embrace immensely.

Yet, upon seeing the young man, Housekeeper Hu paused for a moment.

He had long received the portrait of Ye Guichen, and spies like them are gifted with photographic memory, remembering someone’s face is all too easy.

That young man turned out to be Ye Guichen.

What is going on?

Why would the Great Demon King be interested in a Martial Artist?

Housekeeper Hu and others found their heads spinning.

If Ye Guichen were taken away by the Great Demon King, it would be much more difficult for them to capture Ye Guichen afterwards.

”Stop!”

At this moment, Gongyang Lang also rushed out: ”Leave the young Ye behind!”

”Haha, I’m going to take him back and discipline him properly, and I’m very interested in him.” Hua Xiangrong had no intent to stop, instead her steps shuffled, and she leapt into the air, sweeping towards the lake island: ”I’m very interested in this young lad, it doesn’t matter to me whether he is the Son of the Nether Emperor.”

Only then did she seem to notice Housekeeper Hu, lowering her head to glance at him: ”Oh yes, Boss Hu, could I trouble you to tell others, if anyone dares have designs on the Son of the Nether Emperor, come find me. I, the Great Demon King, will always be ready to accompany.”

With the words finished, the figure disappeared.

Gongyang Lang naturally went chasing after.

But he dared not act rashly, if Hua Xiangrong suddenly squeezed Ye Guichen to death, that would be a loss not worth the gain.

Hua Xiangrong’s subordinates didn’t stay either, quickly following Hua Xiangrong back to the lake island.

Only after Hua Xiangrong left did Housekeeper Hu come to his senses.

”What does this mean? Even the Great Demon King is aware of Ye Guichen being the Son of the Nether Emperor? What to do?” At Jixiang Restaurant, the surrounding spies were numerous, and Hua Xiangrong as the Great Demon King would certainly attract attention.

Since Hua Xiangrong had openly revealed Ye Guichen’s identity, it wouldn’t be long before the Seven Kings received the news.

Once the Seven Kings got wind of this, they would certainly send numerous experts to the Ghost Market, trying every method possible to seize Ye Guichen.

”This is trouble!”

Housekeeper Hu paused for a moment, seeing as Gongyang Lang had left, he quickly instructed people to enter Jixiang Restaurant, intending to rescue Liu Fang and others.

However, upon entering, they found a shadow had appeared beside Liu Fang and the others.

”Exchange Fang Tiancheng for your people, otherwise, no one can take anyone away!” The shadow was naturally Gui Tuo.

Gui Tuo, though unaware of why Ye Guichen had not fought back, knew Ye Guichen likely had his own plans.

Furthermore, he had long received orders from Ye Guichen to look after Liu Fang and the others.

Therefore, he did not pursue nor did he reveal himself easily.

If it were Gongyang Lang, Housekeeper Hu and his group might have been intimidated, not daring to act rashly.

But now with only an unfamiliar black-robed man in sight, who would fear him?

”Take them!”

If not now, then when?

When Gongyang Lang returns, it would be impossible to seize them.

Taking advantage of Gongyang Lang’s absence, they should take them away. As long as they hide, Gongyang Lang won’t find them.

Housekeeper Hu led more than a dozen people charging towards Gui Tuo.

Gui Tuo took out a black flag, tossing it into the air: ”Summon souls!”
