My Silly, Sweet Wife

If according to Xuanyuan Canghai, the Three-tailed Demon Fox can transform into human form, it is not because of its powerful cultivation, but because it has half-human bloodline.

Half-human half-demon?

Ye Guichen furrowed his brows: ”Senior Xuanyuan, what do you think of this matter?”

Xuanyuan Canghai’s face was solemn as he said, ”If it is true, then this matter might be troublesome; the demon clan’s bloodline seems to have been awakened by someone. I fear that they might take action.”

”Take action?”

”That’s right, they might be planning to reclaim this land. If my guess is correct, they might find a way to use human lives to perform a ritual at the hidden sect in Chaos Sea and release those of the demon clan. By then, it would be another catastrophe!”

”Young Master, this matter is of great significance. We must find a way to inform other sects and prepare in advance; otherwise, we might not be able to react in time.”

Ye Guichen thought for a moment and took out the handbooks of the Wanling Sect: ”So, what kind of sect is this Wanling Sect?”

”Wanling Sect?” Xuanyuan Canghai appeared puzzled and seemingly didn’t know much: ”Even though I have followed the Netherworld Emperor for many years, most of my time was spent south of the Three Harmonies Valley, so I am not very familiar with matters regarding top-tier sects. Even with the Chaos Sea, it is only because the Netherworld Emperor mentioned it that I know of it.”

”The Netherworld Emperor mentioned it before?” Ye Guichen felt something unusual once again.

To the term ’father,’ Ye Guichen was unfamiliar and still addressed him as the Netherworld Emperor.

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Canghai nodded, ”I don’t know the specifics, but it seems the Netherworld Emperor had a certain level of understanding about the Chaos Sea and the hidden sect there. Oh, Young Master, I also met your mother once…”

Ye Guichen suddenly lifted his head, his eyes fixed tightly on Xuanyuan Canghai.

Although the term ’mother’ was somewhat unfamiliar, the mention of it couldn’t help but stir excitement; expectation filled his eyes, as if urging Xuanyuan Canghai to speak quickly.

Xuanyuan Canghai heaved a long sigh, his eyes glistening with deep respect: ”Young Master, your mother was the noblest mistress I have ever seen under the heavens. Her every word, every action, every smile radiated noble temperament. Everyone who had seen the mistress held her in high esteem. In fact, for a time, the mistress’s reputation far exceeded that of the Netherworld Emperor. But inexplicably, on the second day after you were born, she disappeared. I also asked the Netherworld Emperor where she went, but he only shook his head and said one sentence: she went back to where she belongs.”

”Where she belongs?” Ye Guichen was filled with wonder: ”Do you know anything more?”

Xuanyuan Canghai shook his head: ”Young Master, I know far too little about the mistress, but I feel her identity must be extraordinary, even if not from a top-tier faction, then definitely from a second-tier one. Back then, I saw her with my own eyes kill a Foundation Establishment expert a hundred steps away with a mere flick of her finger, as if crushing an ant. So, I sometimes think, during the time of the Seven Kings’ rebellion, if the mistress had been around, they wouldn’t have stood a chance against her.”

A hundred steps away, killing a Foundation Establishment expert with one finger?

Ye Guichen inhaled sharply.

What an astonishing ability?

A true immortal?

Ye Guichen said he didn’t know.

”I understand.” Yet, upon hearing news about his mother, Ye Guichen felt his heart empty.

With a soft sigh, his face couldn’t hide the look of loss.

”Young Master, if I may speak candidly, in many ways, you seem more like your mother,” Xuanyuan Canghai respectfully said.

Ye Guichen gently nodded, not dwelling on that topic, but instead asked: ”Any news from the Seven Kings’ side?”

Seeing Ye Guichen didn’t want to talk more about it, Xuanyuan Canghai smartly avoided the topic: ”Yan King has already shown his favor, saying he will pledge allegiance to you and support you to become the new Netherworld Emperor. King Qin has also taken action, and the news of King Qi using living dead to practice evil techniques and his rapid increase in cultivation has spread. Especially after hearing you killed King Qi, those other kings who initially wanted to resist you to the end are now wavering.”

”With King Qin taking action this time, I believe very soon, except for King Qi, the other six kings will soon come to submit. With this, we should choose an auspicious day and move the Netherworld Emperor’s remains to the Netherworld Emperor’s Mausoleum for public veneration.”

Speaking of the Netherworld Emperor, Xuanyuan Canghai’s eyes became teary, obviously regretting the death of the Netherworld Emperor.

Ye Guichen lightly nodded: ”Don’t worry, once the Seven Kings submit, I will personally bring out the Netherworld Emperor and have the Seven Kings mourn for him for three years.”

”Young Master...” Xuanyuan Canghai suddenly knelt down emotionally, his head touching the ground: ”To think, if the Netherworld Emperor knew of your achievements, he would surely smile even in the afterlife.”

”Alright, stand up.” Ye Guichen pulled Xuanyuan Canghai up.

However, Xuanyuan Canghai suddenly seemed to remember something and said, ”Oh, Young Master, although I don’t know about the Spirit Beast Sect, the people from the Long Sword Sect and the Silver Spear Sect should know, since they’re closest to the third-rate sects.”

”Alright, I’ll ask Mu Yang.” Ye Guichen nodded and turned to leave.

Upon finding Mu Yang, the pretentious show-off, Mu Yang was showing off his spear techniques in front of a crowd.

”Look closely, everyone, these are the Seven Silver Spears, the treasure of our Silver Spear Sect!” While speaking, Mu Yang twirled seven short spears, showing off brilliantly.

Cheerful shouts occasionally arose.

Ye Guichen felt a bit embarrassed watching.

He couldn’t help but take out the Green Nightmare Spear, tossing it beside Mu Yang.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Amidst fierce clashing sounds, the Green Nightmare Spear charged like a sudden ravenous wolf, scattering the seven silver spears.

Mu Yang’s face turned pale green at that moment, ”Who dares touch my spears!”

In anger, Mu Yang turned to look toward Ye Guichen.

But then, the people around quickly knelt: ”Greetings, Young Master!”

The crowd had witnessed Ye Guichen’s capability and held deep respect for him.

Mu Yang’s mouth twitched as he hurriedly picked up the Green Nightmare Spear and approached Ye Guichen with an ingratiating smile: ”Well, isn’t it the Young Master? What brings you here to play?”

Ye Guichen glanced sideways at Mu Yang, took back the Green Nightmare Spear, and stored it into his storage ring: ”Come, I have something to ask you.”

”Alrighty!” Mu Yang quickly stashed the seven silver spears and followed behind Ye Guichen like a little lapdog, with his previous show-off demeanor all but vanished.

Mu Yang had no choice, preferring to be one of Ye Guichen’s subordinates.

Although Mu Yang hadn’t been officially appointed, he effectively served as one of Ye Guichen’s top generals.

He commanded tens of thousands of soldiers, far more prestigious than his time at the Silver Spear Sect.

”Young Master, what do you need?” In a secluded spot, Mu Yang eagerly inquired.

”Do you know about the Spirit Beast Sect?” Ye Guichen asked.

”Spirit Beast Sect?” Mu Yang tilted his head, pondering for a while before nodding abruptly: ”I do, I do, the Spirit Beast Sect is said to be a second-tier sect, and within the sect, they specialize in beast taming. But because the Spirit Beast Sect is tens of thousands of miles away from our Silver Spear Sect, we hardly have any interaction.”

”Oh?” Seeing that Mu Yang indeed knew, Ye Guichen was a bit surprised: ”Then do you know what connection the Spirit Beast Sect has with the Demon Clan?”

”Demon Clan?” Mu Yang looked at Ye Guichen with shock: ”Young Master, how do you know about the Demon Clan?”

”What, you know about them too?”

”Of course, it’s said that the Demon Clan originated from Donghuang Taiyi of the Primordial Period and was incredibly powerful. Haha, but, that’s just a legend.” Mu Yang sneered, clearly skeptical about the existence of the Demon Clan: ”Although it seems unlikely, the Spirit Beast Sect supposedly worships the Demon Clan; their totem seems to be a demonic beast. Oh, I also heard about the Ten Thousand Spirit Beast, containing a half-human, half-beast giant demon, which is their sect’s treasured artifact. But I only heard this from others, I’ve never seen it myself.”

At this point, Mu Yang curiously asked, ”Young Master, why are you asking about this all of a sudden?”
