My Silly, Sweet Wife

Seven days later, Ye Guichen silently left the Hidden Gate, passed through the overpass, and returned to the Ghost Market. Then, he quietly returned to the mundane world.

Seeing the bright lights, bustling crowds, and high-tech modern society, Ye Guichen couldn’t help but feel a wave of emotion.

Even though it’s only separated by the Ghost Market, it seemed like two completely separate worlds.

In the mundane world, at least civilization exists, whereas in the Hidden Gate, all he felt was brutal slaughter, the supremacy of the strong.

Ye Guichen returned to Yan Family Lane in Jinling and placed all the spirit stones stored in the basement into his storage ring.

As for other gold and jewelry, Ye Guichen planned to hand them over to the Shennong Sect to continue developing the Shennong Sect’s undertakings.

Just as Ye Guichen was preparing to leave, a small black dog blocked his path.

”Woof!”

The little black dog saw Ye Guichen and suddenly barked, pouncing toward him.

Ye Guichen hugged the little black dog tightly: ”Haha, you’re still here, you didn’t leave!”

Probably because it hadn’t seen Ye Guichen for a long time, Little Black was extremely affectionate, constantly licking Ye Guichen’s face.

Ye Guichen felt a tickle from the licking.

After experiencing the Hidden Gate, Ye Guichen had gained a better understanding of things like Yin Souls.

After playing around with the little black dog, Ye Guichen hugged it and directly used the mystical tower, wanting to investigate the little black dog.

However, just as Ye Guichen intended to probe the little black dog with the tower, the dog suddenly leaped forward and rushed into the mystical tower.

Ye Guichen could clearly feel that the little black dog had entered the tower.

What... what is going on?

Ye Guichen was astonished.

”Woof woof!”

The little black dog seemed extremely excited after entering the tower, running around constantly. Those remaining souls which were previously wailing stopped at the dog’s bark, scared to make a sound.

Even King Qi’s soul was confined within the iron prison.

However, the treatment for King Qi’s soul was quite special, being kept in a separate cell.

Moreover, because Ye Guichen extracted King Qi’s soul directly from a living body, King Qi still retained most of his consciousness from before death.

Seeing Little Black enter, King Qi fearfully curled up in a corner, afraid to move.

Since entering here, King Qi initially held onto hope, thinking the Holy Envoy would come to rescue him.

But in the tower, where time doesn’t pass, oblivious of how long has gone by, without any sign of movement.

Slowly, King Qi fell into despair.

”Young Master, Young Master, please spare me!” King Qi continuously pleaded.

Ye Guichen’s consciousness flickered, and he appeared inside the mystical tower.

Little Black eagerly ran towards Ye Guichen.

Inside the tower, Ye Guichen felt as if Little Black’s aura had grown stronger.

Moreover, that feeling seemed to make Ye Guichen heart race.

Could this little black dog frighten souls?

Ye Guichen pondered this, extended a finger and opened a cell, releasing ten remnant souls.

Little Black immediately seemed to see something delicious, pounced on them, and devoured all the ten remnant souls.

After eating, Little Black was still licking its lips, showing an unsatisfied expression.

”This...” Ye Guichen was utterly shocked.

Indeed able to subdue spirits.

King Qi trembled with fear seeing this, pleading repeatedly: ”Young Master, Young Master, I was wrong, I was wrong!”

Ye Guichen was pleased, leaving Little Black in the tower to guard it, and appeared before King Qi.

”King Qi, actually, there isn’t much grudge between us. I don’t mind your ambition, because that is human nature. But what you shouldn’t have done was trying to kill me. So, for now, just stay here.”

Ye Guichen had no intention of letting King Qi go.

After all, King Qi was the first soul he extracted, and Ye Guichen wanted to keep him in the tower and observe his condition.

Up to now, Ye Guichen understood very little about the mystical tower, only knowing from the cloaked man that it’s called the Jiuyou Tower. As for its connection to the Holy Temple and its origins, Ye Guichen had no idea.

But never mind, since this Jiuyou Tower was refined through the Xuanming Prison Suppressing Technique, it must be related to the Esoteric Sect.

He planned to visit the Esoteric Sect sometime to check things out.

Not paying any more attention to King Qi.

Since he didn’t have anything Ye Guichen wanted to know.

Ye Guichen left Little Black in the tower, with a flick of his consciousness, returned to reality, and then put away the Jiuyou Tower.

After leaving Yan Family Lane, Ye Guichen hailed a taxi, saying, ”Master, let’s go to Shennong Hall.”

The driver, a middle-aged man, glanced at Ye Guichen upon hearing this.

Ye Guichen was still in modern attire, showing nothing unusual.

However, the driver asked: ”Brother, there are thousands of Shennong Hall stores in Jinling. Which one are you going to?”

”Thousands?” Ye Guichen was startled.

Has Shennong Hall grown so rapidly in just one year?

”Well, where do those old traditional physicians of Shennong Hall mostly stay?” Ye Guichen could only ask tentatively.

”Of course, it’s in the Ye Building.”

”Ye Building?” Ye Guichen was even more puzzled: ”When did Ye Building appear?”

”Brother, are you an alien? Shennong Sect has been soaring high lately, and three months ago, they teamed up with Chen Group to build the Ye Building, reportedly to commemorate the Sect Leader of Shennong Sect, a young man named Ye Guichen.”
