My Silly, Sweet Wife

Chapter 538: No Dilly-Dallying


"Shang Hongye, you heard what he said, didn't you?"

Suddenly, just as those people were frantically rushing towards Ye Guichen, he spoke calmly.

A voice with a sobbing tone rang out: "Master, why, why?"

"What?" As soon as he heard this voice, the old leader's pupils shrank sharply: "How is this possible? I clearly used the Taiyin Qimen Formation and put you into a coma. Why are you still awake?"

Beside Ye Guichen, Shang Hongye was crying like rain.

Just now, she indeed seemed to be in a coma.

Moreover, her appearance was completely like she was confused by the array.

But now, where was the slightest hint of being confused?

"I'm sorry, but I saw this Taiyin Qimen Formation from Zhang Chonglou before. If faced with a mature Taiyin Qimen Formation, I indeed wouldn't have a way, but your formation is too weak. I fear it doesn't even have one-tenth of the power of a mature Taiyin Qimen Formation."

Ye Guichen said with a smile, then pulled out two silver needles from Shang Hongye's head.

"Just now when Shang Hongye pleaded for me, I sealed her acupoints, enabling her not to be confused by your formation. I'm sorry, now Shang Hongye knows everything."

"You, you..." The old leader originally didn't want to reveal these secrets to Shang Hongye, hoping to continue to manipulate her and utilize her to perfect the formation when the time came.

Unexpectedly, Ye Guichen had such means.

"Boy, your methods are indeed extraordinary! However, today, regardless of anything, you must die!" The old leader stopped wasting words. No matter what the cost, he had to kill Ye Guichen today.

Those people controlled by the array of Sakura Falling were wailing as they surrounded Ye Guichen.

Shang Hongye looked ashen.

Learning that the master who had raised her for many years was actually the enemy who killed her father, and that she was merely a pawn to the person she considered closest, her heart was filled with despair.

"Mr. Ye, thank you for letting me know all this." With a sorrowful laugh, Shang Hongye closed her eyes, only waiting for those controlled by the formation to rush up and kill her.

The old leader's figure was no longer visible in the grey fog, leaving only his crazed voice: "Bite, bite him!"

Ye Guichen shook his head lightly.

He knew the old leader wouldn't kill Shang Hongye, and quickly concentrated the mysterious energy into his eyes.

Then, he took a look at the hazy surroundings.

Soon, Ye Guichen found where the old leader was.

This Taiyin Qimen Formation was indeed somewhat sinister. If the old leader truly perfected it, Ye Guichen's current skills might indeed not be a match.

Luckily, the current Taiyin Qimen Formation was just a half-finished product. Though powerful, it still couldn't stop Ye Guichen.

With a light toe tap, Ye Guichen darted out, picking up a knife fallen on the ground, and swung it in mid-air.

Swish!

The knife seemed to slice through the void.

But in the next second, a scream erupted.

"Ahhhh! How, how can you see me!" In the mist, the old leader was flustered and scared.

Ye Guichen smiled serenely: "I said, your Taiyin Qimen Formation is too weak, so in front of me, you are nothing."

He slashed again.

A blood mist splashed from the grey air.

Another scream.

At the same time, a clattering sound was heard.

The staff originally held by the old leader fell to the ground.

A gust of wind seemed to rise around them, quickly blowing away the grey fog.

Then, those trapped in the fog slowly regained normal eyesight, utterly bewildered, not understanding what had just happened.

"Mr. Ye, are you all right?"

Ma Xiaoling was the first to regain her consciousness, and upon seeing Ye Guichen, hurriedly ran forward, extremely worried.

Ye Guichen shook his head and looked ahead.

There, the old leader who had lost both arms was still sitting in the wheelchair, behind him was the jumping piranhas.

His eyes were hollow, paired with his terrifying face, looking almost like a corpse.

Everyone looked towards the old leader.

Shang Hongye was just dazed, silently crying.

After a long while, the old leader let out a miserable laugh: "Haha, Ye boy, your methods indeed surprised me! However, do you think the Yin Ghost Sect has really disappeared? You killed me, the Yin Ghost Sect will seek revenge on you! Haha, haha, from today on, you will have no peace!"

He then looked at those from Sakura Falling: "And you are all useless! Haha, haha!"

After speaking, knowing there was no chance of survival, his body leaned over and he fell straight into the sacrificial pool.

The piranhas jumped and rolled, devouring the old leader in the blink of an eye.

The scene fell into dead silence.

After a period of clarity, almost everyone understood what had just happened.

They had been trapped by the old leader, becoming part of the array, manipulated puppets.

If not for Ye Guichen breaking the formation, they might have turned into walking dead.

"Mr. Ye..."

Only when the old leader's white bones floated to the surface did the Great Elder step forward tremblingly, and then bowed deeply to Ye Guichen: "From today onward, I will do my utmost to support you and the Holy Daughter, to make Sakura Falling flourish. If I have the slightest disloyalty, may heaven and earth punish me!"

"Yes, Mr. Ye, me too!"

"Mr. Ye, thank you!"

"Mr. Ye, we will assist you and the Holy Daughter, with no disloyalty!"

One by one.

The people of Sakura Falling stepped forward, faces full of respect.

They knew Ye Guichen supported Shang Hongye, and assisting her was the best choice.

"I said, I don't want to get involved in Sakura Falling's affairs, nor do I wish to." Ye Guichen glanced at the sacrificial pool: "If not for the old leader trying to bite me, I wouldn't have acted. He brought it upon himself. Rest assured, my purpose here has been achieved, and I'm leaving."

Then, he walked to Shang Hongye's side and said: "When you have time, visit your mother. She often thinks of you."

After speaking, without saying more, he and his companions left straight away.

"Mr. Ye..."

But just as Ye Guichen hadn't gone far, Shang Hongye suddenly spoke, turned around, tears still on her cheeks, her beautiful eyes gazing deeply at Ye Guichen: "Thank you for everything you've done for Sakura Falling, and for me! I will never forget it! From today onwards, we in Sakura Falling follow your lead, whatever you command, just tell us!"

"Yes, Mr. Ye, you just have to command!"

"Mr. Ye, we will follow your orders in the future!"

To the people of Sakura Falling, Ye Guichen was ultimately an outsider.

Though they said they would assist Ye Guichen, their hearts refused.

After all, most of them thought similarly to the old leader, that Ye Guichen had ulterior motives for doing so much.

Unexpectedly, Ye Guichen really left without hesitation.

They finally understood, Ye Guichen didn't care about Sakura Falling at all.

Thus, besides admiration, they were wholeheartedly convinced.
