My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 1027: Giant Rat

Situ Yu's aura was unparalleled for a moment.

No one dared to provoke Situ Yu.

Although the martial arts dojo members were angry, they could only lower their heads, not daring to make a sound.

Shang Wen Dong and others were frustrated at their own lack of skill, allowing themselves to be humiliated.

Qin Liu was even more triumphant, seeing that Shang Wen Dong had lost his fighting power, he walked up and gave him a couple of hard kicks to vent his anger.

"What, not talking anymore?" Qin Liu laughed arrogantly: "Aren't you arrogant? Come on, be arrogant again! Haha, what about Mr. Ye you were talking about? Huh, isn't he Chen Ziran's fiancé? Where is he now?"

While kicking, Qin Liu also cursed.

Shang Wen Dong naturally knew where Ye Guichen had gone; he didn't even try to avoid Qin Liu's blows, glaring at him with hatred: "Mr. Ye went to Dragon Tomb Peak. Although we've been beaten and can't fight back against you, once Mr. Ye finds out, you're dead for sure!"

"Oh, still acting arrogant at a time like this!" Qin Liu slapped Shang Wen Dong, then quickly ran over to Qin Yu: "Sis, that Ye guy is at Dragon Tomb Peak."

Glancing at Situ Yu, he hurriedly whispered, "Sis, do you want to take a look? There are definitely Spirit Stones there."

Qin Yu's purpose in coming was precisely for Dragon Tomb Peak.

Now seeing that Situ Yu had intimidated everyone here, she lightly nodded, "Alright then!"

She walked up to Situ Yu: "Ninth Grand Protector, how about we go check out Dragon Tomb Peak? Haha, let that Ye see how useless his men are when we take these few people with us!"

Situ Yu had come to stand up for Qin Yu, so naturally, he had no objections.

"Let's go!"

Situ Yu nodded and took the lead in heading out.

No one dared to stop them.

However, the incident at the martial arts dojo quickly spread to the clinic. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

In the clinic, Su Tong saw Shang Wen Dong and a few others being dragged along, completely losing their fighting power, each with a terrified expression.

They wanted to intervene but dared not get too close.

"Who are you people, what do you want to do?"

Situ Yu walked forward proudly, not even bothering to glance at them.

Qin Liu, like a victorious rooster, followed beside Situ Yu, holding his head high, looking very imposing.

"Quick, inform the Jinling King!"

Su Tong knew he couldn't handle this situation, so he immediately informed Linglong.

Linglong thought for a moment and quickly made a phone call to the Jinling King.

After notifying the Jinling King, Linglong remembered that Ye Guichen had returned and immediately called him.

However, the call kept going unanswered.

Meanwhile, Ye Guichen had almost absorbed all of the gigantic Spirit Stone.

He slowly opened his eyes, realizing his phone was out of battery.

"How long has it been?" Ye Guichen looked at Luo Shentong, standing by with eyes filled with excitement.

"Three hours," Luo Shentong replied with a trembling voice, "Boss, you could actually absorb all this spiritual energy; what have you experienced?"

"Heh, just a little trick," Ye Guichen slowly stood up, preparing to leave the giant stone.

The original stone had lost all its spiritual energy to Ye Guichen and was no longer valuable. It wasn't as hard as before, easily breakable by a regular excavator.

Additionally, after these three hours of absorption, Ye Guichen discovered his Evergreen Wood Art had entered the second stage, reaching a vital, flourishing state.

Although only a stage away from the first, Ye Guichen could clearly feel that, while he couldn't yet regenerate flesh and bones, rebuilding tendons and veins was no problem.

Furthermore, he could revive an ancient withered tree with ease by using the Evergreen Wood Art.

A stage difference feels like an expanse of thousands of miles.

"Bang!"

Unexpectedly, a violent crash sound reverberated.

Someone nearby shouted, "Whoa, what is that?"

"A rat, how can there be such a big rat?"

"Oh my gosh, look, it bit through the support axle of the excavator!"

"Has it become a demon? Run, run!"

The crowd dispersed instantly.

Many cried out in panic.

Ye Guichen glanced over and saw the excavator's bucket had struck the ground—luckily, no one was hurt, or there'd be fatalities.

Moreover, the crowd retreated like a tide.

Beside the excavator, a shadow the size of an adult cat darted about.

Luo Shentong's pupils contracted, he quickly charged forward, throwing the horsetail whisk and enveloping the shadow.

But the shadow reacted swiftly, dodging Luo Shentong's horsetail whisk, diving headfirst into the ground disappearing.

At this moment, Ye Guichen also approached.

Chen Ziran was nearby, her face pale with fright, she hurried to grasp Ye Guichen's arm, "A rat, such a big rat!"

Ye Guichen only caught a glimpse, not noticing what it was, he frowned at her words: "A rat?"

"Yes, a really big one. Look, it even bit through that arm-thick support axle."

Following Chen Ziran's finger, Ye Guichen noticed the excavator bucket's support axle looked like it was bitten through, the break uneven, not caused by force.

Ye Guichen glanced at Luo Shentong: "Really a rat?"

Luo Shentong, having moved swiftly, should have seen what it was.

Luo Shentong quickly whispered, "Should be no mistake, since there's an original stone here the spiritual energy is abundant, something must have adapted to living here. If I'm right, that rat has absorbed spiritual energy, though not turned into a demon, it's not easy to deal with. I was fast before, yet even facing top experts, they couldn't escape my grasp easily. However, that rat seemed to know I was tough, evading and immediately burrowing underground unseen."

Luo Shentong implied the rat avoided conflict with him, opting to outmaneuver him.

Also, the rat seemed to bite the bucket as a warning to them, not to harm.

Ye Guichen knew spiritual energy could change beasts but was still incredulous at such a large rat.

"Ziran, have everyone leave for now. Suspend work until I sort out everything on this mountain."

Clearly, development couldn't continue now.

Continuing could lead to more large rats, perhaps lethal, like wolves, capable of easily biting people to death.

Urgently, he needed to assess the situation, and, if possible, relocate these big rats.

After all, his development was disturbing them too.

Chen Ziran had no objections, instructing everyone to leave the site immediately.

As workers evacuated, several vehicles approached from the mountain's base.

In the leading car were Situ Yu and Qin Yu.
