My Silly, Sweet Wife

This slap sent down felt like it could crush the head of even a Half-step Nascent Soul monster.

Though the puppet was indeed a puppet, it wasn’t invincible.

Unable to dodge, the puppet’s head was directly smashed flat.

However, being a puppet and not human, even after being smashed, there was no burst of brain matter, just a loss of balance, and it toppled to the ground.

"Huh, what’s going on?" Gu Cangsheng seemed to feel something was different from the usual kills, and with a grip, he picked up the puppet, tearing off its arm easily.

Upon seeing that there was not even a trace of muscle inside and the bones were forged from steel, Gu Cangsheng became interested: "Hehe, what is this thing? Looks quite fun!"

"People from the Qianji Sect?"

Upon seeing the puppet dismantled by Gu Cangsheng, Gu Quan’an’s face slightly changed.

Clearly, he recognized that this was a puppet.

Although he was the City Lord of Feifeng City, compared to the Qianji Sect, his power was still slightly weaker.

Especially with the puppetry technique of the Qianji Sect, once deployed, even he sometimes couldn’t resist it.

"Could Shen Qianjun have formed a marital alliance with the Qianji Sect?" Gu Quan’an’s thoughts quickly turned, and he swiftly shouted at Gu Cangsheng: "Son, put it down, come back!"

"Father, I’m not done playing yet." Gu Cangsheng obviously felt a bit unwilling, but under Gu Quan’an’s glare, he still threw the puppet’s corpse to the ground and ran to Gu Quan’an’s side: "Father, you told me to fight, now you don’t let me fight? What exactly do you want?"

Gu Quan’an knew his son, though appearing in his twenties, had the intelligence of a two or three-year-old, so he placated him briefly and clasped his fists towards the room where Ye Guichen was: "I don’t know which brother from the Qianji Sect is inside? I am Gu Quan’an, City Lord of Feifeng City, here to pay respects!"

"Pay respects?" Ye Guichen laughed in disbelief: "In this world, is there a way to pay respects like yours?"

The door opened in response, and Ye Guichen walked out.

The five puppets quickly carried back the slain puppet and stood behind Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen originally didn’t want to show up, but now the other party had killed one of his puppets; Ye Guichen naturally wouldn’t let them off easily.

Although this puppet could be repaired and reused, he hadn’t provoked anyone, yet someone came knocking on his door; this was like defecating right on his head.

He waved his hand, collected all the puppets into the storage ring, and squinted at Gu Quan’an: "I don’t care who you are, I seem to have no grudge against you?"

Gu Quan’an didn’t want to make enemies with the Qianji Sect, seeing Ye Guichen’s youthful and handsome appearance, and with formidable puppets akin to the Twelve Earthly Branches, naturally assumed Ye Guichen was an important figure in the Qianji Sect.

He somewhat regretted his overly rash action.

But fearing the Qianji Sect to such an extent was not the case either.

Calming himself, Gu Quan’an raised his head toward Ye Guichen on the second floor: "This young brother, City Lord Shen’s daughter, Shen Qiuxiang, is my son’s fiancée. I simply want to seek justice for my son. I didn’t realize you were from the Qianji Sect, the previous offense was unintended; I hope you can forgive me."

Ye Guichen found it utterly confusing.

What are you talking about!

"You’re here to seek justice for your son?" Ye Guichen chuckled angrily: "When did I treat your son unjustly? Moreover, this so-called Shen Qiuxiang is your son’s fiancée, what does that have to do with me?"

Looking at Ye Guichen, Gu Quan’an naturally doubted him, thinking Ye Guichen was feigning ignorance, and thus coldly snorted: "Young brother, since you’re from the Qianji Sect, after what you’ve done you dare not own up?"

"What should I admit to?"

"Heh, City Lord Shen already said, you are Shen Qiuxiang’s fiancé, but before this, Shen Qiuxiang’s marriage with my son was decided long ago. You inserted yourself at this moment, are you deliberately trying to embarrass me, Gu Quan’an?" Gu Quan’an was somewhat angry.

Having spoken this much, you still won’t admit?

Ye Guichen finally understood.

But he knew nothing about Shen Qiuxiang or even Shen Qianjun or City Lord Shen.

Carefully looking at Gu Quan’an, seeing him as if not lying, Ye Guichen faintly sensed there might be some trickery involved.

"I said, I don’t know Shen Qianjun, even less City Lord Shen, let alone Shen Qiuxiang." Ye Guichen stated sternly: "You killed one of my puppets, wrecked this inn, and injured my subordinates. Leave ten thousand Spirit Stones and scram!"

"Kid, you’re too arrogant!" Gu Quan’an originally planned to speak calmly with Ye Guichen, but didn’t expect Ye Guichen to be so arrogant.

Not only playing dumb, but you demand ten thousand Spirit Stones.

This arrogance is really too much.

"I’m arrogant?" Ye Guichen laughed out of astonishment, having lost his patience: "Very well, since you say I’m arrogant, I’ll show you arrogance today!"

Upon finishing his words, Ye Guichen tapped the ground with his toe, leaping up, and at the same time, punched towards Gu Quan’an.

Seeing Ye Guichen dare to attack his old father, Gu Cangsheng immediately raged: "Dare to harm my father, you’re seeking death!"

With one step, he moved in front of Gu Quan’an, also raising his fist to meet Ye Guichen’s punch.

Gu Quan’an’s mouth curved into a mocking smile.

Ye Guichen dared to trade blows with Gu Cangsheng, truly not knowing death.

Though his son’s mind wasn’t sharp, he’d never suffered against experts below the Nascent Soul Realm.
