My Silly, Sweet Wife

After organizing for three days and nights, Ye Guichen’s body shattered countless times, then recovered countless times, and finally slowly stabilized.

All the pills on his body had been completely consumed.

When Ye Guichen opened his eyes again, his entire aura had undergone an earth-shattering change.

His body became as crystalline as jade, like a newborn baby.

Furthermore, there seemed to be a faint Golden Core solidifying in his Dantian.

”Reached the Peak of Foundation Establishment Realm?”

Ye Guichen incredulously examined his own body internally, discovering he had reached the Peak of Foundation Establishment Realm.

Although he was greatly exhausted, it seemed he had ultimately endured it.

”This time, controlling a hundred swords is as easy as pie!”

Ye Guichen casually beckoned with his hand, dispersing the Sword Array composed of a hundred swords, which then flew into the storage ring.

Looking down, he noticed his clothes were already tattered beyond recognition.

Searching around, he found a set of clothes made of beast-hide and put them on.

Then he searched the room.

He didn’t find anything valuable.

It seemed that even Golden Core cultivators, when thrown in here, had already had their belongings taken away, including storage rings.

He walked out of the thatched hut.

Outside, Qin Muge and the Four-eyed Dragon Scale Wolf were still waiting.

Seeing Ye Guichen come out, both man and wolf were overjoyed: ”Brother Ye, are you alright?”

The disturbance inside before was too great, Qin Muge had looked several times, seeing Ye Guichen trapped in the Sword Array, yet helpless.

Now, seeing Ye Guichen come out whole, Qin Muge was sincerely happy.

Ye Guichen nodded, ”Are you okay?”

Qin Muge quickly shook his head: ”I’m fine, I recovered long ago.”

”Good!” Ye Guichen didn’t say more but looked towards those human cultivators.

Now they all gazed at Ye Guichen with reverence, many hoping in their hearts that Ye Guichen would just die inside the room.

But now seeing Ye Guichen come out again, those who had plotted against him had their hearts in their throats.

After all, at such a time, if Ye Guichen wanted revenge, they wouldn’t have the slightest ability to resist.

Ye Guichen didn’t pay any attention to their complex expressions and directly said: ”I don’t care what you think or what you’ve done. Since we’re all trapped here, there are surely all sorts of reasons. Of course, if anyone wants to cause trouble for me, I don’t mind. But from now on, I’m in charge here. Does anyone object?”

Ye Guichen surveyed the crowd.

Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to utter a word.

”Good, since no one is speaking, I’ll assume none of you have any objections.” Ye Guichen gestured to one of them.

That person promptly came forward: ”Boss, you say.”

”What’s your name?” Ye Guichen asked.

”I’m Ren Feng, hehe, Ren as in ’Free as the Wind’, and Feng as in ’Wind and Rain’!” Ren Feng hurriedly introduced himself.

Ye Guichen: ”How many of you are there?”

”Three hundred and twenty-seven, but considering the ones who’ve died before, there shouldn’t be as many now.” Ren Feng answered honestly.

”What’s your cultivation level?”

”Hehe, it’s quite mixed. Before, there were people below the Foundation Establishment Realm here, but over time, they were either killed by evil people or barbarians, or died in duels. Now, among these three hundred people, each has a cultivation of at least Foundation Establishment Stage 5, and there are three at the Foundation Establishment Peak.”

”But with the Third Young Master here, they naturally wouldn’t dare to dominate, but usually those three at the Foundation Establishment Peak rarely stay here, they usually hunt and cultivate outside, or won’t return if nothing’s happening.”

Ye Guichen roughly understood what Ren Feng meant.

The Peak of Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators are considered experts and naturally wouldn’t want to be under someone else’s thumb.

That’s precisely why they survive and cultivate outside.

”Do you know where they cultivate?” Ye Guichen asked again.

Since he needed to deal with the barbarians and evil people, Ye Guichen naturally had to gather everyone.

Moreover, since coming in, Ye Guichen gradually understood Qin Cangqiong’s intention.

It seems Qin Cangqiong wanted to test him.

Ye Guichen initially thought that with Qin Muge by his side, Qin Cangqiong wouldn’t leave him in danger.

But three days had passed, and not only did Qin Cangqiong not reopen the entrance, but he seemed to have vanished, appearing indifferent even to his own son.

Ye Guichen guessed that Qin Cangqiong’s thoughts might have changed.

Logically, having killed a master like the Third Young Master, Qin Cangqiong would definitely find a way to call him back, and deal with other matters afterward.

But now, Qin Cangqiong seemed to have disappeared.

Ye Guichen couldn’t believe that entering this Array meant Qin Cangqiong couldn’t find him.

This Array was a powerful formation, controllable from the outside, how could it fail to track people?

Therefore, Ye Guichen felt that ever since he entered, Qin Cangqiong had been monitoring him.

But Qin Cangqiong was merely watching, not intervening, making Ye Guichen believe that Qin Cangqiong wasn’t as compassionate as the rumors suggested.

”Heh, I was indeed a bit naive.”

Ye Guichen laughed self-mockingly.

Since ancient times, how could emperors be compassionate?

If one were compassionate, how could they become an emperor?

Ye Guichen pushed these thoughts aside, not wanting to care what Qin Cangqiong was thinking, only wanting to make contact with the barbarians as soon as possible, to subdue them if possible.

If we can’t subdue them, we’ll just have to consider other plans.

When Ye Guichen asked Ren Feng about the whereabouts of those three Foundation Establishment Peak experts, Ren Feng didn’t answer directly but instead replied first: ”Boss Ye, why are you asking about them? Those three usually don’t take orders from the Third Young Master. If you offend them, they might join forces against you!”

This sounded as if he was concerned for Ye Guichen.

But Ye Guichen could tell that Ren Feng obviously didn’t want to interact with those three or reveal their whereabouts.

Seeing Ren Feng still dare to shirk, Ye Guichen smiled slightly: ”Why, I want to call them over, take them under my command, and together negotiate with the barbarians. Is there a problem?”

”You want to cause trouble for the barbarians?” Ren Feng was startled: ”Boss Ye, are you joking? Those barbarians aren’t humans, they’re like machines, can’t be killed, and can’t be beaten. Even the Third Young Master usually avoids clashing with them head-on. Moreover, those barbarians treat us humans as food. If we go to make trouble for them, aren’t we just delivering ourselves to them?”

”You’re full of nonsense; since you disagree, then keeping you around is useless!” Ye Guichen said, raising his hand as if to press it on Ren Feng’s head.

Ren Feng immediately felt a horrifying pressure descending from above.

It was the feeling of death.

Ren Feng was dumbfounded at the moment.

This guy seemed too brutal, didn’t he?

Always ready to kill.

”I’ll talk, I’ll talk, I’ll take you!” Ren Feng hurriedly nodded.

Ye Guichen continued: ”Gather everyone together now. From this moment on, anyone who questions my words will end up seeing the Third Young Master!”

Those around looked at Ye Guichen in awe, not daring to make a sound.

Just like that, Ye Guichen easily gathered over three hundred people and headed straight to where the three Foundation Establishment Peak experts were hiding.

The three were hiding atop a cliff.

On the cliff was a gigantic cave, at least five to six hundred meters high, which even beasts typically couldn’t enter.

The three were inside cultivating, truly an excellent spot.

Arriving beneath the precipice, Ye Guichen instructed everyone to wait below and took out the Immortal Slayer Sword, tossing it at his feet.

The Immortal Slayer Sword hovered in the air.

Ye Guichen leapt onto the Immortal Slayer Sword.

The sword tilted slightly, soaring towards the cliff.

The others witnessing this were wide-eyed.

Sword Control!

It’s really Sword Control!

Indeed!

After swallowing the Golden Core, Ye Guichen could now use Sword Control.

While the sword control distance was somewhat short, flying a few miles was not a problem.

Moreover, aside from consuming True Qi, the speed of sword control was faster than divine movement.

This granted Ye Guichen another divine skill.

Standing on the Immortal Slayer Sword, Ye Guichen soon arrived at the cave entrance.

Before landing, a violent force rushed out from inside.

”Who dares to disturb our cultivation!”

Boom!

A wave of energy transformed into a mighty lion, roaring at Ye Guichen as if attempting to kill him on the spot.

Ye Guichen was blunt.

Though his cultivation was at the Peak of Foundation Establishment Realm, Ye Guichen’s aura was incomparably robust, far beyond ordinary Foundation Establishment Peak experts.

Seeing the lion leaping through the air towards him, Ye Guichen waved his hand, dispersing it directly.

Then, he took ten swords from the storage ring.

The ten swords shot forth, aiming around the cavern.

Since his advancement, Ye Guichen’s power in deploying the ten sword technique was vastly amplified.

The ten swords struck below the cliff, causing the entire cliff to tremble.

The cave began to collapse.

Witnessing that before long, the entire cave would be rendered useless.

The three experts inside couldn’t stay any longer, could they?

Each leapt from the cave, swiftly climbing around, observing Ye Guichen standing on a treasured sword, initially astonished, then with a furious expression.

”Fellow Taoist, we have no grievances, why attack us?”

One elder, half-white in beard and hair, wore a sullen expression.

He donned a tattered robe, hair standing up like a Taoist, holding a horsetail whisk, with a sword on his back, evidently displeased with Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen cupped his hands towards the three: ”I actually mean no harm. I’ve come today to invite you to join me in dealing with those barbarians together.”

”Dealing with barbarians?”

Upon hearing this, the three snorted in disdain.

”Kid, are you new to this Barbarian Demon Fighting Arena?”

”Really audacious! Those barbarians are aliens, few in number but far beyond what people of our cultivation can handle.”

”Exactly, we’re fortunate enough that they haven’t troubled us, yet you actually want to seek them out?”

”What’s up, kid? Do you think you’ve lived too long and want to offer yourself as food to them?”

After some mockery, unconsciously, the three had surrounded Ye Guichen in a triangular formation, clearly intending to deal with him.
