My Silly, Sweet Wife

Watching Gu Quan’an leave, Shen Qianjun felt a sense of joy.

Although he didn’t know Ye Guichen’s background, if he could now make Gu Quan’an and Ye Guichen clash, his troubles would be solved.

By then, regardless of whether Ye Guichen lost or Gu Quan’an was defeated, he would be able to retreat unscathed.

Moreover, Shen Qianjun believed that anyone who could have someone like Scar Dragon as a bodyguard must not be ordinary; Gu Quan’an was likely not a match.

"Quick, follow City Lord Gu immediately, keep a close watch," Shen Qianjun softly instructed his subordinates.

Changle Inn.

Ye Guichen was cultivating, casually checking on the state of Little Black Dog.

The Little Black Dog was still asleep, seemingly unable to wake up anytime soon.

Meanwhile, Ye Guichen examined the items he bought from the old man.

They all seemed very valuable, not only pills and spirit grasses but also spiritual artifacts.

However, these items were not very significant for Ye Guichen at the moment.

After storing everything properly, Ye Guichen began to immerse himself in cultivation.

Just as he started, a deep voice suddenly echoed from outside, "Kid, get out here!"

Outside, Scar Dragon roared angrily, "Who are you to disturb Mr. Ye’s rest?"

"Damn, you’re just a watchdog, what the hell are you!"

Bam! Bam! Bam!

The sounds of fighting erupted outside.

Ye Guichen frowned slightly, extending his divine sense outward, seeing Scar Dragon engaged in a fight with a young man in his twenties.

The young man’s punches and kicks seemed ordinary, yet there was no disadvantage in his fight with Scar Dragon.

In fact, Scar Dragon seemed on the verge of being overwhelmed.

"No way?"

Ye Guichen turned his focus to the young man in astonishment.

"Heh, I thought you were strong, but you’re so weak," the young man sneered and suddenly grabbed Scar Dragon.

Scar Dragon tried to break free, but it was as if he was entwined by a poisonous snake; even his bones cracked loudly, ready to shatter.

"Such strength!"

Ye Guichen was utterly shocked.

The young man’s strength was tremendous; even Ye might suffer a loss against him.

Moreover, the young man’s body seemed unusually hard. Though Scar Dragon had reached the ninth level of the Golden Core stage, his attacks did no damage.

"Damn, this guy is definitely a master of body cultivation!"

Ye Guichen knew that if he didn’t intervene, Scar Dragon’s body might be crushed.

"Arise!"

Ye Guichen summoned six of the Earthly Branches Twelve Puppets.

In this situation, he felt it unnecessary to summon all twelve puppets.

The six puppets appeared, rushing from indoors to outside.

Then, six swords were unleashed, attacking the young man.

Ye Guichen knew the young man’s body strength was exceptional; if the puppets were engaged in close combat, they might be crushed.

So, Ye Guichen commanded the six puppets to attack from a safe distance, retreating if the young man got too close.

Sure enough, being harassed by the six puppets, the young man abandoned Scar Dragon and fought with the puppets.

Abandoned by the young man, Scar Dragon’s face turned exceptionally pale.

He gasped heavily, shaken.

Seeing the sudden appearance of the six puppets, admiration gleamed in Scar Dragon’s eyes.

Mr. Ye was indeed Mr. Ye.

Too incredible!

He then summoned so many experts.

However, not daring to linger, he quickly retreated to a safer distance.

This was, after all, a place where combat couldn’t be sustained safely.

Just a short fight, and the entire inn was practically demolished.

The innkeeper hid far away, terrified of getting caught in the bloodshed.

"Cowards, you’re all cowards. Have the guts to fight me up close!" The young man fought with the puppets for a while, venting in frustration.

At the inn entrance, Gu Quan’an watched everything with a stern face.

The young man was, of course, Gu Quan’an’s son, Gu Cangsheng.

Though Gu Cangsheng wasn’t very bright, he was a top-notch fighter, with a body as hard as steel, impervious to most weapons.

Previously, Gu Quan’an didn’t take Gu Cangsheng into the City Lord Mansion; he had him wait outside.

But upon hearing from Shen Qianjun that the Shen Family’s daughter was engaged, Gu Quan’an naturally wanted to show Shen Qianjun that any fiancé was irrelevant.

Anyone Gu Quan’an set his sights on, others had to step aside.

Thus, without hesitation, Gu Quan’an sent his son Gu Cangsheng to trouble Ye Guichen.

Gu Quan’an paid no heed to any constraints.

His intention was to kill Ye Guichen directly.

Moreover, he had resolved that his son must marry Shen Qianjun’s daughter.

Only this way could he achieve his scheming goals.

"Cangsheng, stop playing and kill them directly!"

Gu Quan’an shouted at Gu Cangsheng.

Gu Cangsheng responded, lunging barehanded at the nearest puppet.

The puppet tried to retreat, but Gu Cangsheng’s speed seemed to increase suddenly. Closing in, he transformed his fists into palms, striking at the puppet’s head.
