My Silly, Sweet Wife

Time passed second by second.

It took Ye Guichen a full seven days and nights to completely absorb the wood essence within the cane.

As he absorbed all the essence, the cane turned into ashes.

When Ye Guichen opened his eyes again, his internal injuries were completely healed.

Moreover, the Evergreen Technique advanced significantly, directly reaching the fourth stage, Thousand Blossoms Scattered.

Though Ye Guichen couldn’t revive the dead yet, if he wished, a gentle stomp could make flowers bloom in abundance.

”What a comfortable feeling,” Ye Guichen exhaled, feeling an unparalleled sense of relaxation.

His cultivation realm also steadily entered the eighth level of Qi Refinement.

Such speed is rare in the world.

As he walked to the room, there were disciples cleaning outside.

Seeing Ye Guichen emerge, the disciple immediately threw down the broom and ran away swiftly.

Soon, a group of people hurriedly arrived.

Leading them was Chen Mumu.

Behind Chen Mumu were a number of elders.

The cultivation of those old men was not weak, likely the high-ranking members of the Silver Spear Sect.

”Awake!”

”Master Ye is awake!”

”Greetings, Master Ye!”

”Master Ye’s reputation is unparalleled, truly a blessing for our Silver Spear Sect!”

”Grandmaster Su really has an eye for heroes, finding such a remarkable person as sect leader for us, hope rises for our Silver Spear Sect!”

Chen Mumu and the others generously praised.

Many disciples heard Ye Guichen had come out and peeked over curiously.

Upon seeing Ye Guichen’s age similar to theirs, many female disciples blushed, their hearts racing, and eyes averting.

”He must have used a rejuvenation technique; he can’t be so young.”

”Right, defeating someone as strong as Feng Boqi at such an age is simply impossible!”

”But is there truly such a miraculous rejuvenation technique in the world?”

”There is! I heard the Dan God Sect recently developed a pill called the Great Returning Pill, making people look decades younger.”

”Really? It must be expensive.”

”Of course! I heard one Great Returning Pill costs ten lower-grade Spirit Stones; you surely can’t afford it.”

”So expensive, damn, keeping youthful really is something only the wealthy can do.”

The disciples discussed fervently.

Ye Guichen, with remarkable hearing, squinted his eyes upon hearing this.

It seemed during his absence, the Dan God Sect had stirred quite a commotion with the Great Returning Pill.

Yet, his expression remained nonchalant.

Chen Mumu approached respectfully, ”Master Ye, are you alright?”

”Mm,” Ye Guichen nodded.

Chen Mumu eagerly suggested, ”Master Ye, since you are well, could you now proceed to our Gun God Hall, to honor the ancestors and announce your position as sect leader to the disciples?”

Being a sect leader, although his origins were unknown, Ye Guichen’s fame soared after defeating Feng Boqi.

No one in the Silver Spear Sect objected.

Though the formalities must still be observed.

”Indeed, Master Ye, if convenient, please proceed to the Gun God Hall now.”

The elders beside Chen Mumu nodded in agreement.

Ye Guichen was indifferent.

Though the Silver Spear Sect wasn’t large, comprising a few thousand people, even the weakest were Innate experts.

There were several hundred Qi Refiners, a substantial force anywhere.

This opportunity was too good to pass up.

”Alright, please lead the way!” Ye Guichen nodded.

Everyone was delighted, seeing Ye Guichen didn’t refuse; they immediately led him grandly to the Gun God Hall.

The Gun God Hall, as the name suggests, is a place to worship the Gun God.

According to Chen Mumu, the Gun God, the Silver Spear Sect’s first sect leader, was a supreme expert who, with his spear, slew hundreds of masters, including over ten Foundation Establishment experts.

Yet, due to arrogance, he liked challenging others and was eventually slapped to death by someone stronger.

This didn’t affect his status in the Silver Spear Sect.

Through the years, no one surpassed the first sect leader.

Arriving at the Gun God Hall, Ye Guichen looked up.

The hall resembled a temple, with a massive statue over ten meters tall opposite the entrance, holding a proportionate silver spear.

The statue had a fierce expression, embodying power.

On a rack in front of the statue lay a two-meter silver spear.

Though the spear appeared dull, it emanated an inexplicable murderous aura to Ye Guichen.

”Master Ye, this spear was the weapon of our first sect leader, yet no one has wielded it in centuries.” Chen Mumu sighed, gesturing to the spear.

Ye Guichen asked puzzled, ”Why?”

Chen Mumu smiled wryly, ”Supposedly, the spear gained sentience from following the first sect leader too long, transforming into a legendary Spiritual Artifact. Ordinary people cannot wield it. Even those sect leaders who advanced to the Foundation Establishment Realm couldn’t control it. Holding it would lead to mental disarray.”

”Once, a disciple out of curiosity entered the Gun God Hall and touched the spear; he lost his senses and accidentally impaled his heart, killing himself. Since then, none dared touch the spear.”

Ye Guichen realized.

It was his first time seeing a Spiritual Artifact, capable of controlling one’s mind?

Instinctively, he wanted to touch it.

Chen Mumu and others quickly stopped him nervously, ”Sect leader, this curiosity is dangerous. Though your cultivation is impressive and you defeated Feng Boqi, better not try. If something happens, we can’t save you.”

Ye Guichen chuckled, ”I love seeking thrills!”

Yet, mentally noting.

With an Immortal Slayer Sword, would he fear a mere Spiritual Artifact?

Ignoring Chen Mumu’s warning, Ye Guichen grasped the spear.

Instantly, a terrifying aura surged from the spear into Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen’s eyes froze, information flooded his mind.

”Spear name: Green Nightmare! Slew 3,624 lives, living on blood. The more blood, the stronger it grows, able to harm the wielder.”

Ye Guichen’s pupils slightly contracted.

It was an evil spear.

Before Ye Guichen could react, a monstrous beast seemed to appear in his mind.

Fierce, it lunged at him, seemingly intending to tear him apart.

Ye Guichen raised an eyebrow, his mighty aura surged, his spirit expanded, transforming him into a giant.
