My Silly, Sweet Wife

”Young Master, something terrible has happened!”

In the early morning, Ye Guichen had almost finished refining those thousands of souls into his puppets when he suddenly heard urgent shouts from outside.

Quickly, Bai Qi rushed in.

The two little wolves sleeping nearby immediately straightened up, perked their ears, and looked alert.

Nolan Qingqing rubbed her eyes, pouting as if her sweet dreams were disturbed, somewhat displeased, ”It’s so early in the morning, can’t a person sleep?”

Soon, after Nolan Qingqing took a good look at her surroundings, she realized she was not at the Dan God Sect, and had gone through a terrifying slaughter just yesterday. Her brow furrowed and she fell silent.

Bai Qi didn’t pay attention to Nolan Qingqing but quickly approached Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen opened his eyes, ”What happened?”

”A major incident has occurred. Centered around Three Harmonies Valley, within a radius of two hundred miles, almost everyone is dead.”

”What?” Ye Guichen stood up abruptly, ”What on earth happened?”

Bai Qi said, ”I don’t know the details, we just received the news. If our assumptions are correct, it should be the group of zombies that fled earlier. Last night, they unexpectedly spread out and attacked people. The Dan God Sect also encountered quite a few but they were quickly killed by experts, so it didn’t have much impact. But many of the citizens under King Qin and King Qi were bitten to death, with very few survivors.”

”In one night?” Ye Guichen’s expression slightly changed.

Three Harmonies Valley was originally the confluence of King Qin, King Qi, and the Dan God Sect.

Apart from one side being the Dan God Sect, the other two sides were the territories of King Qin and King Qi.

In one night, such a huge incident occurred.

”Okay, I understand. Bai Qi, you must have people guard Three Harmonies Valley; I’m going to take a look outside.” Ye Guichen said, heading outside.

”Young Master, I’ll go with you.” Bai Qi followed.

Ye Guichen waved his hand, ”You are more needed here; I’ll be fine.”

He seemed to remember Nolan Qingqing again, and turned to her, ”Qingqing, I’ll arrange for Senior Xuanyuan to take you back to the Dan God Sect soon; it’s not safe here.”

”I... I want to go with you.” Nolan Qingqing clearly didn’t want to go back.

Ye Guichen didn’t bother with Nolan Qingqing’s chatter. After finding Xuanyuan Canghai, he had Xuanyuan Canghai take Nolan Qingqing quickly back to the Dan God Sect, informing them and Mu Yang of the events so they could prepare.

After arranging everything, Ye Guichen quickly left Three Harmonies Valley.

Finding a secluded place, Ye Guichen immediately summoned the black tower.

”Come out!”

With a thought, Ye Guichen directly opened the iron cage within the black tower.

Gusts of eerie wind howled out.

The surrounding air suddenly seemed to drop several degrees in temperature.

”Go, find out what exactly happened.” Ye Guichen bent to grab a handful of grass, tossing it into the air.

The grass immediately shattered into countless pieces.

In the next second, a bizarre scene unfolded.

All the blades of grass seemed to be held by something and floated in mid-air.

After a night of refining, as many as a thousand and three residual souls were refined into the black tower by Ye Guichen.

Although those residual souls had no consciousness, they could act as Ye Guichen’s eyes, spreading out to find suspicious clues.

But in broad daylight, these residual souls couldn’t wander freely.

Using this one-leaf-obscuring-the-eye method could solve this problem well.

The power of these residual souls was fragile, but it was no problem to lift a small leaf or blade of grass.

With Ye Guichen’s command, countless blades of grass scattered and flew outward.

After doing this, Ye Guichen used his mysterious movement skill, choosing a direction at random and hurried in that direction.

Before long, Ye Guichen arrived outside a cottage.

A faint smell of blood lingered inside.

The cottage had a courtyard.

The courtyard was not very high, but Ye Guichen pushed the courtyard gate open and walked in.

Upon entering the courtyard, Ye Guichen immediately saw a black dog dead on the ground and a naked man on the ground, already turned into a mummy.

Inside the room, on the bed lay a similarly naked, emaciated woman.

The woman’s face still wore a look of terror before she died.

Just eerily, there was a hole in her chest, as if the blood had been drawn out through that hole.

Knowing that if the residual souls from the bodies weren’t extracted, these two would soon turn into zombies.

Without further hesitation, he summoned the black tower and collected the residual souls of the pair.

Without finding any living people, Ye Guichen left.

All along the way, in almost every inhabited place he passed, the people inside were already bitten to death.

With no choice, Ye Guichen had to collect their residual souls.

Until noon, Ye Guichen arrived at a small village.

The village was not large, inhabited by more than thirty families.

Looking from a distance outside the village, a bloody smell drifted from within, and a layer of dark dead air seemed to hang above.

Ye Guichen sighed lightly, summoned the black tower once more, and began collecting residual souls.

However, just as Ye Guichen was collecting residual souls, suddenly a child’s cry echoed from the center of the village.

Ye Guichen hurried towards the sound.

Sure enough, in a room, Ye Guichen saw a little girl about ten years old.

Covered in dirt, the little girl lay crying on a woman’s body.

Seeing Ye Guichen enter, she raised her head, her eyes filled with terror.

Beside her, a cellar.
