My Silly, Sweet Wife

Seeming to speak to himself, but clearly addressing Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen frowned, not saying a word.

The woman continued, ”We’ve been coveting the dragon spirit within for a long time, but whoever enters the lake’s vicinity hasn’t survived. However, at noon, the dragon spirit will be at its weakest; that is a chance.”

With these words, the woman twisted her snake-like waist and walked straight towards Ye Guichen.

Standing before Ye Guichen, the woman seemed afraid he might act, lifted Ye Guichen’s chin with her hand: ”Giggle, who’d have thought, a handsome young man. Allow me to introduce myself; I am Liluo, the Sect Leader of the Spirit Beast Sect. This dragon spirit is a precious thing; once obtained, not only will one gain powerful combat strength, but consuming it will also greatly increase cultivation. You wouldn’t want to compete with me for it, would you?”

Ye Guichen stepped back two paces, staring at the woman named Liluo for a moment: ”What exactly are you trying to say?”

”Haha, not much. After years of researching this dragon spirit, I’ve drawn conclusions. Each time it devours a powerful demon beast or human cultivator, it falls into a dormant phase. Recently, it has consumed quite a few demon beast spirits, and due to the signal I sent out, it’s devoured the spirits of many high-level human cultivators. If all goes well, once it devours Xuanyin Sect’s elder and the Four-eyed Dragon Scale Wolf spirits, it should fall into slumber.”

”Plus, noon, when the yang energy is strongest during the day, the spirit form will be at its weakest then. That might just be the opportunity to slay and subdue it.”

Liluo, while speaking, blinked twice, revealing a seductive demeanor: ”Dear friend, you wouldn’t want to compete with me for it, would you?”

”What do you think?” Ye Guichen’s lips curled: ”Since I’m here, I don’t have the reason to return empty-handed.”

Liluo shook her head, clicking her tongue with regret: ”Truly wild youth! Haha, you don’t really think you can subdue a Ninth-Order Demon Beast and by killing He Changlong become invincible, do you? It’s said even a fierce tiger can’t outfight a pack of wolves, let alone, you have been poisoned with my serpent venom; do you still think you have the ability to confront me?”

”Serpent venom?” Ye Guichen’s gaze fell on Liluo’s hand, before dawning realization: ”Haha, I was wondering who you were, turns out you’re a serpent person. What, is your hand poisoned?”

Ye Guichen hadn’t noticed poison on Liluo’s hand initially, but now with her hint, he understood why she put on such a charming front.

Indeed, a beautiful venomous serpent.

Unexpectedly, such a snake-like woman is the Sect Leader of the Spirit Beast Sect.

”Yes, ever since activating the demon clan bloodline within me, I’ve grown increasingly alluring. Within mere months, I’ve risen from a nobody in the Spirit Beast Sect to its leader. Giggle, you wouldn’t know, back then those elders and sect leaders would rather die for me. Well, men, they’re creatures of the lower body; wouldn’t you say so, young brother?”

Ye Guichen felt a rush of heat surging towards his lower abdomen, and his eyes became somewhat dazed.

The sensation was quite similar to the effects of the aphrodisiac from before.

Moreover, Ye Guichen clearly felt the poison was potent.

However, having never feared poison from a young age, now with greatly increased cultivation, though the toxin is very strong, it remains trivial to him.

As the poison seemed poised to overwhelm Ye Guichen, his blood suddenly began racing.

In no time, he had devoured all the toxins.

Liluo waited for a while, and seeing Ye Guichen unchanged, was inevitably shocked and uncertain.

”What’s going on?” Liluo was puzzled.

Ever since activating the demon clan bloodline within, Liluo used this trick against countless masters.

Once touched by her, the illusionary snake venom invades the body, and even the strongest wills fail.

Then, the poisoned turns her into their goddess, becoming sycophantic, agreeing to any request.

Even if it means dying for her.

But seeing Ye Guichen still unaffected, how come?

”Haha, Sect Leader Liluo, I forgot to mention I am naturally immune to poisons. Your serpent venom seems to have little effect on me.”

Ye Guichen’s lips spread into a grin, then suddenly acted, grabbing Liluo by the neck.

Liluo’s pupils contracted, aghast: ”What—what do you want?”

”I intend to use you to lure the dragon spirit.”

With those words, Ye Guichen stabbed Liluo’s abdomen with a sword.

Then, pulling the sword out, he threw her towards the lake’s central tree while she was still weak.

Liluo’s seductive power was indeed strong, but her cultivation wasn’t high, coupled with no defense against Ye Guichen, she had no resistance at all.

The abrupt change stunned other Spirit Beast Sect members.

But at this moment, none were foolish enough to confront Ye Guichen.

Given Ye Guichen’s ability to subdue a Ninth-Order Demon Beast and kill He Changlong, they feared even joining forces would be futile against him.

Moreover, failing might turn them into lunch for the dragon spirit.

Feng Wuxiu was also frozen.

Never imagined Ye Guichen to be so ruthless.

Facing such a delicate beauty, he could still strike with such resolve.
