My Silly, Sweet Wife

”If he doesn’t cooperate, use the sect’s unique interrogation method; I don’t believe he won’t submit.”

The man in white had anger on his face and spoke impatiently.

”Sir, you mean...”

The man next to him asked again, fearfully.

”Hmm? Do I need to repeat myself?”

The man in white glanced coldly at the person beside him, showing displeasure.

”Yes, sir, I will do it immediately!”

The man felt the piercing gaze and couldn’t help but tremble. Though his upper body hadn’t moved, his feet were already retreating.

”Wait!”

The voice of the man in white slowly floated from behind.

”What other orders do you have, sir?”

Upon hearing the man in white’s voice, the man knelt on the ground with a thud, his face nearly touching the ground, showing utmost respect.

”Send the beauty to my room.”

”Yes, yes, yes! I will do it right away!”

The man slowly stood up, as if afraid the man in white had additional orders, he didn’t turn away immediately.

Seeing the man in white remain silent, he quickly fled with his tail between his legs.

At this moment, the man in white turned his gaze back to the Demon Clan above Abyss City, with a hint of interest gradually rising in his eyes.

”Liu Bai, Wang Hui, who wants to play with them?”

The man in white spoke to the two floating cities beside him.

”Brother Hua, let me, Wang Hui, go play with them!”

As soon as the words finished, a lean man suddenly sprang from a floating ship, charging towards Abyss City like a lightning bolt.

The man was already at the pinnacle of the Earth Immortal Realm, and the air rippled faintly with spatial ripples.

Meanwhile, Liu Bai from the other floating ship moved swiftly, landing in front of the man in white.

”Brother Hua!”

Liu Bai cupped his hands and saluted the person before him.

The man in white waved his hand, gesturing for Liu Bai to rise.

Liu Bai took the cue, standing beside the man with a cold demeanor as he observed the situation in Abyss City.

At this moment, Ye Guichen was silently watching the actions on the floating ship of the man in white.

”Guan Ren, do you know who that man in white is?”

Ye Guichen asked a burly man behind him.

Guan Ren was the most accomplished among the Immortals Ye Guichen had recruited, having reached the seventh level of the Earth Immortal Realm, and seemed to hold high prestige among the crowd.

Therefore, Ye Guichen had him stay by his side to help dispel doubts.

Upon hearing Ye Guichen’s question, Guan Ren looked towards the distant floating city.

But as soon as Guan Ren’s gaze touched the floating city, he quickly retracted it as if shocked.

Following this, Guan Ren’s face showed deep fear.

”Oh? What’s the matter?”

Ye Guichen obviously noticed the change in Guan Ren’s expression, becoming somewhat suspicious.

”Mr. Ye, that man in white is a monster of our Du Xian Sect, reputed as a once-in-a-century genius, nicknamed Hua Baiyi, Hua Qing!”

Guan Ren looked worriedly at Ye Guichen.

”Hua Baiyi? Interesting!”

Ye Guichen looked towards Hua Qing dressed in white ahead, eyes filled with intense interest.

Seeing Ye Guichen’s calm demeanor, Guan Ren felt distressed.

”Mr. Ye, Hua Qing is a top existence in our Du Xian Sect and has the highest cultivation in this trial. It’s said he’s already broken through to the Earth Immortal Realm; his skills are unfathomable!”

At this point, Guan Ren paused, looked at Ye Guichen, seemingly reminding him to set aside disdain.

”Broken through to the Earth Immortal Realm?”

Upon hearing Guan Ren’s words, Ye Guichen was slightly surprised. It seemed Hua Qing indeed had some skill, worthy of being called a once-in-a-century genius!

”But I’m reputed as a once-in-a-million years genius; compared to me, he still falls short.” Ye Guichen thought to himself.

Nonetheless, Ye Guichen restrained the disdain on his face.

Apart from the old Demon Saint, perhaps Hua Qing was the strongest person he encountered thus far.

”Mr. Ye, look at the person beside him.”

Guan Ren pointed at the man next to Hua Qing.

”Hmm?”

Ye Guichen followed Guan Ren’s gaze.

The man had a peach-colored wooden sword on his back, with green robes fluttering, filled with Sword Intent that Ye Guichen could feel its terrifying might even from afar.

”Using the sword as a path?”

Ye Guichen was not only surprised by the Sword Intent surrounding the man, as typically it’s internalized within one’s body, but this man’s Sword Intent was completely externalized as if continuous like the waters of the Yellow River, brimming with fearsome energy.

”Mr. Ye, this person ranks second among the disciples in the Du Xian Sect trial, named Liu Yijian, Liu Bai.”

Seeing Ye Guichen’s amazement, Guan Ren explained.

”Second-ranked? Liu Yijian?”

”Sir, look at the peach wood sword on his back. Originally it was just an ordinary Spiritual Artifact, but it’s said he has continuously nourished it with his own blood, now it’s a fifth-grade Immortal Artifact, and reportedly has potential for further evolution.”

Guan Ren looked at the peach wood sword behind Liu Bai with intense envy.

”A fifth-grade Immortal Artifact, that’s almost catching up to my Immortal Slayer Sword,” Ye Guichen commented with surprise.

Considering his Immortal Slayer Sword was an eighth-grade Immortal Artifact, the peach wood sword surpassed a standard Immortal Sword and subtly approached his Immortal Slayer Sword.

Upon hearing Guan Ren’s words, Ye Guichen wondered whether continuously feeding his sword with blood might awaken potential for evolution in his Immortal Slayer Sword.

Especially since his Immortal Slayer Sword was already an Immortal Artifact and had aided him in many battles, Ye Guichen had long reached a state of unity between man and sword.

Ye Guichen felt he would need to enhance the quality of his Immortal Slayer Sword in due time.

Moreover, in Ye Guichen’s current perspective, Liu Bai seemed far more formidable than Hua Qing. The difference merely lay in their cultivation levels; given time, Liu Bai’s breakthrough to the Earth Immortal Realm could make him a daunting opponent.

Yet presently, Ye Guichen didn’t plan to worry much about it; his priority right now was strategizing how to unify the Demon Clan.

”Bang!”

A loud noise abruptly pulled Ye Guichen’s thoughts back to the battlefield before him.

Wang Hui with a pair of copper-red meteor hammers charged at Haotian and his side with annihilating force.

”Form the array!”

Seeing Wang Hui’s attack, Haotian spoke an obscure Sanskrit command.

The nine behind him quickly gathered around Haotian, enveloping him.

”Sealing Immortal Array!”

As soon as the words fell, the nine swiftly channeled their True Qi towards Haotian.

With the True Qi infusion from the nine, Haotian’s form expanded, his realm climbing rapidly, soon reaching the peak of the Earth Immortal Realm.

Haotian retrieved an ancient bronze sword from behind, and with a swing in the air, two-meter-wide sword lights filled the arena, aimed at Wang Hui.

”Bring it on!”

In the midst of his charge, Wang Hui’s expression was one of excitement upon encountering the formidable sword light.

He slammed his meteors into the ground, forming a frightening shockwave at its center to meet the incoming sword attacks.

”Boom boom boom!”

Upon impact, the shockwave stalled briefly in the air before dissipating, leaving the remaining sword light to hit Wang Hui, sending him flying.

”Young Master mighty, Young Master mighty!”

The Demon Clan behind cheered upon the Young Master’s successful strike.

To them, the Demon Clan Young Master represented their final hope; if he were to fall, it would mean becoming slaves to the Immortals.

And that was tantamount to death.

Little did they know of Haotian’s current helplessness.

The Sealing Immortal Array was specially developed by the Demon Clan post-Immortal wars to counter Immortals.
