My Silly, Sweet Wife

”Sir, we have other matters to attend to, why don’t we...”

Thinking of this, Hua Nu walked to Qin Muge’s side and whispered.

But Qin Muge waved his hand: ”Hua Nu, what matters could there be? Brother Ye and I hit it off instantly, I’ll be staying here tonight. Also, I’ll cover Brother Ye’s room fee, hmph, Brother Ye, you mustn’t be modest with me.”

Hua Nu’s mouth twitched.

He suddenly realized he might have underestimated his master’s generosity.

Ye Guichen originally didn’t want to get too involved with Qin Muge, but felt this Qin Muge was actually quite a good amulet.

Especially Hua Nu’s cultivation was pretty good, with him around, there was no need to be constantly on guard.

”Hahaha, since Mr. Qin is so generous, then I won’t be modest.” Ye Guichen cupped his hands towards Qin Muge: ”But right now, I’m still hungry, you see...”

”Shopkeeper, keep the dishes coming! Another serving!” Qin Muge waved his hand broadly, placed another Spirit Stone on the table.

Ye Guichen’s smile grew even brighter.

Although his own storage ring had countless Spirit Stones, since someone was willing to play the sucker, naturally there was no need to be polite.

Meanwhile.

In a secret room.

A stone-faced Yang Di stood nearby.

In front of her were a few people.

Among them, two were seated at a stone table, drinking tea and conversing.

One of these was a middle-aged man, appearing to be around forty.

The other was roughly thirty, with an imposing manner that suggested the air of a protagonist.

His face was handsome, with an enticing charm in every expression.

This person was none other than Wan Jian Villa’s chief disciple, the adopted son of the villa master, Feng Wuxiu.

Feng Wuxiu’s Sword Dao comprehension was exceedingly high.

At Wan Jian Villa, Sword Dao is divided into eight levels.

Beginner’s practice, initial insight, mastery of fundamentals, minor achievement, thorough comprehension, consummate skill, reaching the pinnacle, returning to simplicity.

It is said that within the same cultivation level, if one reaches the level of returning to simplicity, overcoming barriers to defeat higher levels is effortless.

This is similar to the analogy of weapons.

Like in the mundane world, no matter how skilled in martial arts one is, should they face a gun-wielding weakling, they inevitably are hit by bullets.

Currently, although Feng Wuxiu has only reached the fourth level in the Foundation Establishment Realm, his Sword Dao has attained consummate skill. Especially a technique he cultivates named ”Snow Stepping Swordsmanship”, so deep that even the villa master calls Feng Wuxiu a Sword Dao genius, likely to become Wan Jian Villa’s greatest Sword Dao master.

Therefore, sending Feng Wuxiu out this time not only serves as experience but also aims to add to his knowledge and highlights.

Seated opposite Feng Wuxiu was a middle-aged man, appearing somewhat disheveled.

His name was Shen Changnian, with a face resembling a monkey.

Furthermore, his eyes were disturbingly sinister.

Shen Changnian stared at Feng Wuxiu, observed for a long time, and finally spoke: ”Mr. Feng, are you certain you want to enter the Spirit Beast Sect?”

This Shen Changnian was actually from the Xuanyin Sect.

Feng Wuxiu nodded: ”Senior Shen, you know as well, the Spirit Beast Sect might host a rare treasure, I don’t want to miss it. Though it might be perilous now, I still want to try.”

”That’s true, but Xuanyin Sect is also determined to obtain this rare treasure. Mr. Feng, not to hide from you, years ago, Wan Jian Villa’s master did me a favor, risking to meet with you this time.”

Senior Shen paused, continued: ”However, if Xuanyin Sect finds out about this, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to stay there any longer, and...”

”Senior Shen, I understand your predicament.” Feng Wuxiu smiled, nonchalantly took out two Spirit Stones, placed them in front of Shen Changnian: ”I haven’t asked Senior Shen to do much, right? Besides, once we leave this secret room, no one will know we’ve met.”

Seeing those two Spirit Stones, Shen Changnian’s eyes lit up, then he frowned, silently collected the stones, said: ”Mr. Feng, according to our information, the rare treasure at Spirit Beast Sect should be in its rear mountain. That item is likely to hypnotize beasts or enhance their potential. While exact specifics are unclear, reliable sources suggest it might also affect humanity’s mind.”

”Rear mountain?” Feng Wuxiu heard, silently nodded, asked again: ”Then Senior Shen, Xuanyin Sect suddenly recruiting disciples at this time, is it related to this matter?”

Shen Changnian chuckled, ”Of course it’s related, although we know Spirit Beast Sect has a rare treasure, currently it’s definitely a dangerous place. Recklessly sending Xuanyin Sect’s disciples would be irresponsible to our own disciples. Thus, our sect thought of a method, first recruit some disciples as cannon fodder, hehe, at that time, under the guise of experience, not only send those novices as cannon fodder but also divert some beasts’ attention, allowing Xuanyin Sect to exploit.”

Feng Wuxiu realized, couldn’t help but give a thumbs up: ”Surely ingenious. Hehe, I understand now, thanks to Senior Shen for informing.”

Shen Changnian stood up, ”Then I’ll be leaving.”

Secretly, quickly leaving.

After Shen Changnian left, Feng Wuxiu’s expression gradually darkened, a cold smile formed on his lips: ”Hmph, Xuanyin Sect truly cunning, wanting to use ordinary people as cannon fodder. But this doesn’t hinder us in any way.”

He came to Shen Changnian this time to investigate Spirit Beast Sect, although not exhaustive, at least he got a general understanding.

Feng Wuxiu pondered for a moment, seeing Yang Di woodenly standing beside him, couldn’t help but ask: ”Yang, you said you have something to tell me?”

Yang Di hurriedly nodded, finally a smile appeared on her expressionless face.

Though the smile was somewhat awkward, it was quite rare.

”Senior Brother Feng, Junior Sister Feng encountered trouble.”

”What happened?” Feng Wuxiu raised an eyebrow.

Yang Di quickly recounted the events.

Feng Wuxiu’s fist suddenly clenched, smashing the stone table before him: ”What, someone actually took Junior Sister Feng hostage? Who is so bold!”

Yang Di saw Feng Wuxiu’s anxiousness, felt slightly disappointed internally, pondered whether if she were held hostage, would Senior Brother Feng be equally anxious?

But now, Yang Di clearly couldn’t dwell on it, quickly said: ”The identity of the opponent is unknown, but their cultivation is probably unmatched, kicking several of our brothers away. Currently speaking, though the opponent may not be a Foundation Establishment Realm master, they’re likely close to it. Additionally, there are two others with the one holding Junior Sister Feng hostage.”

Subsequently, Yang Di described Qin Muge and Hua Nu’s general situation.
