My Silly, Sweet Wife

In Wan Shu’s mind, Ye Guichen is a ruthless demon who kills without blinking.

He is unworthy to become the Netherworld Emperor, for his appearance would tarnish the Emperor’s reputation.

However, the current situation is not what Wenren Sangmu described.

”Wan Shu, I know you have always had a grudge against me, but the Young Master is not a bloodthirsty person. The day he and I fought in the Three Harmonies Valley, he could have killed me easily, yet he did not.”

Bai Qi stepped forward and began to persuade: ”I cannot change your decision, but I cannot let your mind be clouded. Wan Shu, I hope you see clearly that the Young Master is someone worthy of following!”

Wan Shu stared blankly at Bai Qi, then at Ye Guichen for a while, and suddenly laughed up at the sky: ”Haha, haha, I have received King Qi’s grace and cannot repay him. Now defeated here, how can I face King Qi? Although I have doubts about Lord Wenren’s words, I prefer to believe them simply because I hope the Son of the Nether Emperor is a bloodthirsty person.”

”Haha, Young Master?” Wan Shu’s eyes flashed with mockery: ”Although I, Wan Shu, am not a strong person, I still have my dignity. Bai Qi, calling him Young Master makes me look down on you. In my life, I only follow King Qi and will not follow anyone else.”

Suddenly, he turned his head and glanced at the Qi soldiers: ”However, I cannot stop your decision. So, if you wish to surrender, I will not stop you. If you do not wish to surrender, today, please fight alongside me to the death!”

As he finished speaking, Wan Shu raised his hand and slapped his forehead.

The next second, Wan Shu’s brain matter oozed out, and he slowly closed his eyes.

This scene was unexpected even for Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen sighed deeply.

He did not say anything further but waved his hand and told the Qi soldiers: ”I respect those who are loyal. Today, Commander Wan has died. I will not trouble you. You may take his body and leave the Three Harmonies Valley. From today onwards, I will take over the valley.”

The Qi soldiers knew the battle was bound to be lost.

Many of them were prepared to fight to the death against Ye Guichen.

However, upon hearing Ye Guichen’s words, the Qi soldiers were stunned, disbelief filling their eyes.

”You will let us go?”

”Aren’t you afraid we might come back again after we leave?”

Ye Guichen smiled faintly: ”If I don’t care about your lives, how can I face the people in the future? Wouldn’t I be just like the Seven Kings? Haha, go back and tell King Qi, I will find him. From today, I have returned, and I will settle all the matters from back then one by one.”

Ye Guichen no longer paid attention to the Qi soldiers. Instead, he led his Qin soldiers towards the Three Harmonies Valley.

Since the valley was the territory of three sides, driving out the Qi soldiers left only the Qin soldiers behind.

The Qin soldiers were relatively more challenging to deal with.

Because King Qin’s power was so immense, many of the Qin soldiers were personally selected by him.

Although he had accepted the surrender of thirty thousand Qin soldiers, many unstable elements remained among them.

Taking this opportunity, Ye Guichen wanted to test his ten thousand Qin soldiers.

If they were not loyal to him, keeping them around would be trouble. If they were willing to be loyal, he would not lightly joke with their lives.

Ye Guichen’s actions surprised the Qi soldiers.

Wan Shu’s death and Bai Qi’s allegiance to Ye Guichen left the Qi soldiers unwilling to fight anymore.

That day, they all withdrew from the Three Harmonies Valley, leaving the canyon they occupied completely empty.

Ye Guichen did not immediately send men to take over but first dispatched a team of Qin soldiers to recruit those in the valley.

The person Ye Guichen sent was named Yan Nanfei, a minor leader among the Qin soldiers, akin to a Chiliarch.

His cultivation was at the fourth level of Qi Refinement, commanding over a thousand soldiers.

Moreover, after observation, Ye Guichen found that this Yan Nanfei looked at him with immense respect.

Upon a slight investigation, Ye Guichen learned more about Yan Nanfei’s identity.

He had no family or attachments and was a martial fanatic, only aspiring to reach the pinnacle of martial arts in his lifetime.

Thus, such a person with no ties became the best tool for him.

After sending Yan Nanfei, Ye Guichen did not leave but stationed himself in a canyon not far from the Qin Camp.

He quietly awaited news.

The news soon came back.

However, what Ye Guichen didn’t expect was that what returned was a corpse.

Yan Nanfei’s corpse.

Yan Nanfei’s upper clothes were stripped, and a large character for ”death” was carved on his body.

Upon seeing Yan Nanfei’s corpse, Ye Guichen clenched his fists tightly.

This was provocation!

Originally, he intended to give those in the Qin Camp a chance, but they chose to provoke him so.

”Young Master, from my investigation, the person currently in charge of the Qin Camp is a man named Zuo Lengqiu. He is a loyalist to King Qin, and convincing them to surrender seems impossible!” Xuanyuan Canghai frowned, looking at Yan Nanfei’s body, also feeling somewhat pained.

Ye Guichen raised his head: ”Let everyone see that this is what the soldiers and officers under their King Qin do!”

Soon, Yan Nanfei’s corpse was displayed before the surrendered Qin soldiers.

All the Qin soldiers were filled with furious indignation.

It was as if it was not Yan Nanfei who had died, but themselves.

”Young Master, that Zuo Lengqiu is despicable. Previously, they would beat and insult us, and if anyone disagreed, they would even kill them!”
