My Silly, Sweet Wife

The woman paused before continuing, ”Since you’re here to kill him, do you realize that, even if you could kill him, would those Immortals treat you as one of their own? In their eyes, you might also be an anomaly. By that time, you’ll be facing the entire Immortal Clan. Xiao Chen, you must think this through carefully.”

Ye Guichen naturally understood what the woman meant.

Regardless, trying to uphold the world is akin to ascending to the heavens, extremely difficult.

But the broad and open road is never that easy to travel.

”Mother, actually, during that time on the stele of the great turtle, I finally realized what I was pursuing. As long as my power grows to a certain level, as long as I can truly comprehend the Heavenly Dao, Immortals would be nothing. As long as I wish, the world would be at peace, and there would be no more war between Immortals and Demons.”

Ye Guichen spoke these words decisively.

The woman’s eyes reddened slightly.

She was somewhat moved.

She hadn’t expected Ye Guichen to harbor such great ambition.

But the Heavenly Dao is not so easily comprehended.

”Xiao Chen, the Heavenly Dao, ever since its existence, who hasn’t wanted to comprehend it? But the result? Who can truly understand it?” the woman shook her head. ”I don’t expect you to be equal to the heavens, I just hope you can live peacefully and without worries.”

”Mother, being able to see you again today already brings me joy, but there are some paths I must walk.” Ye Guichen grasped the woman’s hand, ”I want to try, even though I can’t save the world or all living beings now, I can still save some people in the Chaos Sea, save those whom I can save, so I want to try.”

After saying this, Ye Guichen released the woman’s hand and walked straight towards the fishing old man.

Then, he drew the Immortal Slayer Sword and swung it towards the old man’s back.

The woman’s eyes moistened, but her lips curled into a smile, and she did not stop him.

”Hehe, boy, do you think you can represent the Heavenly Dao?” The old man did not move, but his voice echoed, ”You’re too naive, thinking you can kill me?”

”Given that you’re her son, I’ll give you a chance, leave here immediately, do not meddle in my affairs, or else, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

The voice rolled like thunder in Ye Guichen’s ears.

Ye Guichen’s body was suddenly immobilized.

His limbs felt as if they were filled with lead, unable to move.

Ye Guichen was now a Demi Immortal, merely a step away from a true Immortal.

The old man managed to restrain him without even making a move.

However, Ye Guichen refused to admit defeat.

Regardless of this Demon Saint’s intentions, if he left, the entire Chaos Sea would be plunged into chaos, something Ye Guichen did not want to see.

Therefore, no matter what, Ye Guichen intended to act today.

”Break for me!”

Ye Guichen’s mind focused, suddenly unleashing a terrifying power.

That power, upon erupting, broke through the barrier the old man placed on Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen felt that he regained control over himself.

The old man murmured in surprise, seemingly not expecting Ye Guichen to break free from his restraints, ”Hehe, interesting, boy, then I’ll indulge you today.”

With that, the old man cast the fishing rod outward.

A gigantic red carp leapt from the other end of the rod.

Upon emerging from the water, the carp transformed mid-air into a woman in a red robe.

The woman held a short spear, with a cultivation realm at the Half-step Immortal level.

Her face was stern as she shouted and stabbed straight towards Ye Guichen.

The short spear in her hand was obviously no ordinary item, as it carried the power of lightning when it struck at Ye Guichen.

From afar, it seemed as though the force could cleave mountains.

Ye Guichen was completely taken aback that a random carp could be so formidable.

However, being at the same Half-step Immortal level, Ye Guichen was undaunted.

”Come on!”

Ye Guichen didn’t even consider using all his power but simply swung the Immortal Slayer Sword forward, splitting the lightning force of the Carp Demon in two.

Boom!

The cleaved lightning force exploded to the sides, creating two large craters not far away.

Meanwhile, Ye Guichen tapped his toes and dashed forward, appearing before the Carp Demon.

”My sword is named Immortal Slayer, killing a Demi Immortal like slaughtering a chicken or dog!”

With that, Ye Guichen unleashed the most powerful move of the Immortal Slayer Sword.

This move was called Immortal Slayer.

Once Immortal Slayer was executed, even the heavens and earth seemed to change.

It was as if countless sword shadows enveloped the carp.

The Carp Demon found herself unable to dodge.

Her expression changed slightly, crying out in alarm, ”Demon Saint, save me!”

”Hehe, who would’ve thought you’d be defeated so quickly, seems like you do have some skills.” The motionless old man lifted his hand, gradually raising it, gently pointing a finger.

Crack!

The powerful force formed by the Immortal Slayer Sword shattered like glass.

Ye Guichen was hit by the recoil force, flying backward, and his chest was tight, almost suffocating.

He was greatly startled.

This old man’s cultivation was unfathomable.

”Indeed despicable, claiming not to interfere yet having others test me, and now, you couldn’t help but intervene,” Ye Guichen remarked mockingly.

The old man finally stood up, stroking his beard with a chuckle, ”Boy, don’t try to provoke me, I’ve walked more roads than you’ve eaten salt. Since you’re here to kill me today, I’ll give you an opportunity, but if you can’t kill me, how about we make a deal?”
