My Silly, Sweet Wife

Li Yuanshou watched as He Changlong transformed into a giant ape, then scooped up his own body with one hand, stuffed it into his mouth, and his consciousness faded away.

After swallowing Li Yuanshou’s corpse, He Changlong grabbed Li Yuanshou’s head, looked at the expression frozen like a sculpture on his face, and grinned: ”The Demon Clan will reclaim everything we lost before.”

He picked up a spear from the ground, planted its butt end in the earth, and impaled Li Yuanshou’s head on the spearhead.

”Come, let’s go and meet those people from Xuanyin Sect.” With that, He Changlong charged forward and plunged into the gorge.

On the other side, Ye Guichen weaved rapidly through the dense forest.

Though he encountered several waves of monster beasts attacking, the strongest among them were only around the seventh or eighth rank, equivalent to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Under Ye Guichen’s hands, they stood no chance at all.

After traveling for most of the day, Ye Guichen suddenly stopped.

Because he heard murmurs coming from not far away.

”Hmm?” Ye Guichen gestured for Qin Muge and the others to stop.

”What’s the matter?” Qin Muge asked quietly as he moved closer.

Ye Guichen shook his head: ”You all wait here and don’t move, I’ll go take a look.”

With that, Ye Guichen flickered and used his art of rapid movement, jumping onto a tall branch.

He looked down.

Ye Guichen saw four or five people there.

All of them were wearing animal hides and speaking in hushed tones.

”The Sect Master is really wise to send out this signal, hehe, this time we hit the jackpot.”

”Yeah, the monster beasts I’ve raised are all well-fed, and not only that, my Demon Clan bloodline has awakened. Now even facing a Qi Refinement level five practitioner, I won’t break a sweat.”

”Wow, so impressive, the Sect Master is indeed so formidable. Simply drinking some devil cultivator’s blood truly enhances our cultivation and helps awaken our Demon Clan bloodline.”

”However, that thing in the center of Netherworld Valley that even the Sect Master can’t handle, what should we do about it?”

”What else can we do but send some folks in first to explore, hehe.”

”Alright then, let’s patrol around, make sure no one discovers the secret of our Spirit Beast Sect, and definitely don’t let anyone leave this place. If the news spreads, we’d face attacks from major sects.”

”Right, let’s patrol quickly.”

After speaking, the few people were about to leave.

But there was no way Ye Guichen would let them go.

”Kill!”

Ye Guichen unleashed five treasured swords, sending them out instantly.

The five swords whirled through the air, rushing toward the people of the Spirit Beast Sect.

”Who’s there?”

One of them was extremely sensitive, reacting swiftly.

But even though these people had awakened their Demon Clan bloodline, their cultivation was not high enough to be Ye Guichen’s match.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

A series of cold flashes.

Their heads were swiftly severed by Ye Guichen.

Only one person seemed to realize the adversary was a skilled master and dared not linger, wanting to escape, but his path was soon blocked off by the swords.

”You can’t escape!”

Ye Guichen came up to the Spirit Beast Sect disciple, placing the Immortal Slayer Sword against the disciple’s neck.

”What, what are you doing?” The disciple was horrified.

From the earlier scene, he knew the man before him was not someone to mess with.

Ye Guichen didn’t mince words: ”You’re a disciple of the Spirit Beast Sect?”

”Yes...” The person quickly cast his eyes down as he met Ye Guichen’s gaze.

Ye Guichen nodded slightly: ”It’s rumored all the Spirit Beast Sect’s disciples are dead, but it seems that’s not the case?”

”I...”

”What? Still thinking of lying?” Ye Guichen pressed the Immortal Slayer Sword lower, ”Want to end up like them?”

”No, no, no, senior, I didn’t mean that.” The man waved his hands in a panic: ”I’ll tell, I’ll tell.”

This Spirit Beast Sect disciple stammered out the rough details of what occurred.

After listening, Ye Guichen frowned deeply: ”From what you’re saying, you planned this a month ago?”

”Yes, a man in a cloak came a month ago. After meeting with the Sect Master, the Sect Master told us that we actually have Demon Clan bloodlines within us. That’s why we can control the monsters...”

”The cloaked man again?” Ye Guichen couldn’t help but recall seeing the cloaked man near the Three Harmonies Valley before.

Although he had severely injured that cloaked man back then.

But the person probably didn’t die.

Could it be the same cloaked man?

Holy Temple?

Is this somehow related to the Holy Temple?

Ye Guichen detected a hidden plot in the man’s words.

Demon Clan does indeed exist in this world.

But those Demon Clan originated from behind the concealed gate over the Chaos Sea.

Now, as the concealed gate slackened, Demon Clan attempted to return and began releasing the Demon Clan bloodlines left behind to bide their time.

Before activation, these Demon Clan bloodlines were like ordinary people.

But once activated, they became half-human, half-demon.

And according to the Spirit Beast Sect’s disciple, as long as they drank some Qi Refiners’ blood, they could increase their cultivation, akin to the cultivation of monsters.

Moreover, many whose bloodlines hadn’t been activated vastly increased the possibility of activation by consuming some Qi Refiners’ blood.

Thus, this time, they used the guise of a rare treasure’s appearance to lure Qi Refiners to come, not just to feed monsters and beasts, but also to enhance their own cultivation.

Why not?

However, Ye Guichen understood one more thing.

There indeed existed a rare treasure in these deep mountains.

But the area around the rare treasure seemed terrifying, even the Spirit Beast Sect couldn’t obtain it.

”For your gains, you’re ruthless indeed!”

Ye Guichen’s face was grim as he swung the Immortal Slayer Sword, swiftly decapitating the other.

For such cold-hearted and vicious people, Ye Guichen naturally would not hold back.

After killing several Spirit Beast Sect members, Ye Guichen called Qin Muge back to him, ”There indeed is a conspiracy here.”

Then, he recounted everything he knew.

Qin Muge was utterly stunned after listening.

”Demon Clan? There truly are Demon Clan in this world?”

Hua Nu pondered: ”I’ve also heard of the Demon Clan, but since they’ve not appeared for many years, those monster beasts may have developed some Spiritual Sense, but they’re still far from true Demon Clan. If Demon Clan truly back the scene, the entire hidden gate might face a great calamity.”

”What? What should we do then?” Qin Muge hadn’t expected to learn such a shocking revelation and didn’t know what to do.

Feng Wuxiu spoke: ”This is indeed troublesome. If the news is true, the entire Spirit Beast Sect sees us as prey. We can’t shake them with just us; we have to find a way to spread the information so other sects can jointly deal with the Spirit Beast Sect.”

Ye Guichen nodded in agreement: ”I think so too. If the Demon Clan really sweep back, cultivators will never find peace again.”
