My Silly, Sweet Wife

Ye Guichen sat in a wicker chair, leisurely enjoying the surrounding scenery. He couldn't help but think, having rushed all the way here, slowing down to appreciate the beauty around him was truly a blessing!

Ye Guichen sighed inwardly.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Ye Guichen looked towards a bush, noticing lots of rustling noises coming from it.

Ye Guichen slowly raised his hand, signaling the Barbarian King to halt the march.

The Barbarian King saw Ye Guichen's gesture and immediately took control of the team's pace, then approached Ye Guichen with a drum-like heavy step, asking with a puzzled face, "Mr. Ye? What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I just happened to encounter some interesting people," Ye Guichen said playfully as he gazed at the bush ahead.

"People?" Upon hearing Ye Guichen's words, the Barbarian King became alert, instructing several barbarians nearby to quickly gather around Ye Guichen, guarding his safety.

"You little rats, stop hiding and come out for an honest meeting!" Ye Guichen loudly declared towards the front.

"Elder, we... we seem to have been discovered..." stammered a middle-aged man.

"Nonsense, I'm not an idiot, do you think I can't understand words?" The elder glared viciously at the man, looking panic-stricken.

Ye Guichen relaxed his mind, carefully observing the scene within the bush, discovering there were thousands of people, and each seemed like a heinous villain, emitting palpable evil qi from head to toe.

However, Ye Guichen noticed their cultivation levels — the highest was only the fourth layer of the Nascent Soul Realm, even less formidable than the Ghost Fetus Elder he encountered in the Illusion Forest. Moreover, with Ye Guichen's current strength, few within the Nascent Soul Realm posed a threat, and he even had confidence facing early-stage Divinity Transformation opponents.

Thinking of this, Ye Guichen couldn't help recalling some amusing incidents, a playful smile spreading across his face.

"Everyone! If you don't come out, I'll send the barbarians to capture you!" Ye Guichen revealed a wicked smile, making a gesture as if about to issue commands.

The middle-aged man within the bush saw Ye Guichen's gesture, his heart racing. Though countless souls had perished under his hand, he still desired to live a carefree life and didn't want to be beaten to death by barbarians!

"Elder! What do we do? If all the barbarians charge at us, our few thousand people are no match!" The middle-aged man, looking at the dense mass of barbarians, was filled with fear.

The elder's eyes kept darting around as he fearfully considered strategies, then grabbed the middle-aged man beside him and flung him forward.

"You go, bring him over, or we'll all be done for!"

Before the middle-aged man could react, he was caught by the elder and suddenly appeared before Ye Guichen's group.

"Hmm?"

Seeing someone appear out of nowhere, the group fixed their eyes on the middle-aged man, countless hostile gazes landing upon him.

He shivered instinctively, clenched his fists, trying hard to calm himself, but his legs seemed detached from his body, continuing to tremble uncontrollably.

"You... you have the guts to follow me!" the middle-aged man pointed at Ye Guichen, his voice laden with deep uncertainty.

"Me?" Ye Guichen raised a finger, pointing at himself.

"It's... it's you! Come if you have the guts, I want to challenge you one-on-one!" The middle-aged man's eyes darted around before he panicked and fled into the bush.

"Damn! This fool, does he think people are idiots?" The elder nearby overheard the middle-aged man's words, erupting in rage, kicking him as he returned.

The middle-aged man felt the killing intent on him dissipate, patting his chest in relief that the opponent hadn't struck immediately. As soon as he steadied himself, a flying kick knocked him to the ground.

"Mr. Ye, leave this provocateur for me to handle!" Yu Wen Dou said, cupping his hand towards Ye Guichen.

"Indeed, Mr. Ye, why not send a barbarian youth to show him what it means to act recklessly!" the Barbarian King chimed in.

"No need, since that's the case, I'll entertain them! Wait here for a moment," Ye Guichen said, placing a foot on the wicker chair, springing into the air, and dashing towards the bush with his magically swift movement.

"Elder, that guy's really coming!" The middle-aged man saw Ye Guichen daringly approaching the den and burst with excitement.

The elder's face turned dark as he gestured to those behind him, and soon everyone vanished, hiding their forms, and he gradually became one with the surrounding trees, leaving only the middle-aged man alone on the scene.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man couldn't hold back, shouting curses, "Damn you, Yan Chong, I've respected you as an elder, yet you push me into danger again and again. If I survive, I'll report to the Sect Hierarch."

But now, he was alone, and so he ceased his shouting, turning with a grave face to the figure before him.

"Who are you?" Ye Guichen now stood with his arms crossed, looking playfully at the man before him.

"I'm a Heavenly Demon Soldier of the Sky Demon Sect, boy I advise you to send your barbarians away quickly, and then surrender obediently."
