My Silly, Sweet Wife

If it were someone else daring to say such things, they would have surely died over eight hundred times by now.

But the methods of Ye Guichen just now had completely intimidated Sun Erniang.

For the first time, she realized there truly were people in this world who could achieve such invincibility.

Even if all the Heartless Sect were to join forces, they might not be a match for Ye Guichen.

”Um, I, I...” Sun Erniang suddenly didn’t know how to respond to Ye Guichen, and after quite a while finally managed to utter a sentence: ”It was my idea to capture you, it has nothing to do with my sisters.”

”Haha, whether it matters to them is irrelevant to me, though I am looking for a place to rest. If possible, could you lead the way?” Ye Guichen said indifferently.

He glanced at Gongsun Fengying: ”Right?”

Although Gongsun Fengying knew Ye Guichen was formidable, he didn’t expect Ye Guichen to be powerful to this extent, his mind was now blank.

Only when Ye Guichen looked at him did he nod woodenly: ”Yes, yes, yes, if possible, please lead us across the thousand-mile desert.”

The thousand-mile desert was too expansive; even if Ye Guichen had the means to reach the heavens, one wrong step could lead him astray.

Finding someone familiar with the desert terrain to lead the way would naturally save a lot of trouble.

Moreover, Ye Guichen could sense that Sun Erniang wasn’t inherently bad, she was just too stubborn.

She was probably deeply hurt by women.

”No, not good!” At this moment, Zhu Yan came rushing back, startled at the sight of bodies littered everywhere, but quickly ran to Ye Guichen, gasping for breath: ”Mr. Ye, Miss Wu has been taken.”

”What?” Before Ye Guichen could speak, Luo Huasheng shouted: ”What do you mean ’taken’?”

”I... I don’t know what happened. About ten minutes ago, I took Miss Wu to find a place to hide, but suddenly a group of people came out from behind, and after injuring me, they took Miss Wu away.”

As Zhu Yan spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and lifted his shirt, showing several bruises and wounds, clearly he had been severely beaten.

”If I hadn’t found a way to escape, I... I probably would’ve been beaten to death by them.” Zhu Yan said with a scared expression.

Ye Guichen furrowed his brows: ”By the sound of it, there are other people here?”

”Yeah, yeah, I feel they’re allied with Hua Heshang.” Zhu Yan nodded quickly.

”What do they look like?” Sun Erniang asked.

Zhu Yan thought for a moment before hurriedly describing: ”One of them was very big, nearly two meters, holding a Wolf Fang Club. After he injured me, I retreated in defeat, completely outmatched. If I’m not mistaken, that big guy should be a Cross Training Master.”

”Brown Bear?” Sun Erniang said with a sullen face: ”Is he accompanied by a skinny man with a sharp mouth and monkey-like cheeks?”

”Yes, yes, yes. That skinny guy didn’t make a move but took Miss Wu when I wasn’t paying attention.” Zhu Yan replied quickly.

Sun Erniang snorted: ”They’re Brown Bear’s gang, usually having a vague relationship with Hua Heshang. But their group was only about a dozen people, usually engaging in some dirty deeds. Now it seems they must have informed Hua Heshang, hiding in the shadows to watch the battle.”

”You know who they are?” Zhu Yan was stunned and hurriedly asked, ”Do you know where they are?”

Sun Erniang shook her head: ”Their movements are erratic, I don’t know their exact location. However, with Hua Heshang dead, Hua Heshang’s subordinates will surely collapse, and we should be able to extract some information from them.”

”In that case, let’s visit Hua Heshang’s lair.” Ye Guichen said.

Gongsun Fengying was displeased: ”Hey, Wu Nuannuan got lost on her own accord, for insisting on coming along without us asking her to.”

”Uh...” Zhu Yan suddenly didn’t know what to say.

He himself couldn’t make the decision either.

Moreover, he was nearly killed just now, and was reluctant to wander around.

There were too many dangers in this desert; who knows what other threats might appear.

Still, looking at the dead bodies shocked Zhu Yan.

He glanced secretly at Sun Erniang.

Was this group of women so fierce?

Could they have killed so many?

In Zhu Yan’s view, Hua Heshang’s group all died at the hands of Sun Erniang’s people, never suspecting Ye Guichen.

Even if one person was strong, it was impossible to kill so many.

Ye Guichen might not have fond feelings for Wu Nuannuan, but her life was still at stake. Regardless of Wu Nuannuan’s intent, ultimately she was lost under his watch.

If he didn’t attempt a rescue, Wu Nuannuan would surely be harmed by those men.

”Forget it, you guys find a place to rest first.” Ye Guichen sighed, speaking to Gongsun Fengying and them, then turned to Sun Erniang: ”Could you arrange for someone to take me to Hua Heshang’s area? I’ll rescue Miss Wu along the way.”

”Brother Ye, I’ll accompany you.” Luo Huasheng volunteered.

Ye Guichen waved his hand: ”It’s alright, rest up. I can manage alone.”

”Well, okay.” Luo Huasheng wasn’t too keen, but recognizing Ye Guichen’s skill, no one could harm him.

Zhu Yan was quite delighted.

He wasn’t eager to go.

”Pfft, such a saint!” Gongsun Fengying grudgingly accepted, seeing Ye Guichen had decided and unable to change his mind.

In the end, Sun Erniang wasn’t reserved, assigning a woman named Sun Li to lead Ye Guichen to Hua Heshang’s territory.

Seeing Ye Guichen’s group without malicious intent, Sun Erniang loaded her people onto horses and swiftly led them towards the Heartless Sect’s location together with Gongsun Fengying’s group.

In the desert, risks are constant. With so many dead here, the strong stench of blood would soon attract more Desert Wolves and other wild beasts.

Earlier they drove away Desert Wolves, but there were only hundreds then.

The Desert Wolves in the desert could number tens of thousands, not ones to easily accept losses, and once they call for more, even if Sun Erniang’s group had superpowers, it’d be their end.

The group arrived quickly and left just as swiftly.

However, as Sun Erniang predicted, shortly after their departure, packs of Desert Wolves began to approach the site of their battle.

In just half an hour, thousands had gathered.

They fiercely devoured the corpses scattered on the ground.

While the Desert Wolves feasted, another group approached not far from the battlefield.

This group comprised Kui Long and Guan Renwang’s people.
