My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 1075: The Visit to the Hidden Sect, Imminent
Ye Guichen was not in a hurry; he just walked onto the balcony, hands behind his back, looking out.
"Woof woof woof!"
At this moment, a dog barking sounded.
That was when Ye Guichen noticed the little black dog that had run off somewhere had reappeared.
The little black dog was standing at the entrance of the villa, and opposite it stood a person in a black robe.
The figure was entirely shrouded in a large black robe, making it impossible to discern their appearance.
Ye Guichen was momentarily stunned.
The little black dog didn't seem to be affected by the array either.
The robed figure, upon seeing the little black dog, was clearly taken aback, then suddenly reached out, attempting to grab the little black dog.
A bundle of black chains materialized in the hand of the robed figure, clinking ominously in the night.
The little black dog barked as it quickly retreated, dodging the chains.
The next second, the originally palm-sized little black dog suddenly expanded rapidly, turning into a massive black dog over two meters long in no time.
Ye Guichen was a bit dumbfounded.
"What the hell is this thing!"
And yet, that wasn't all.
After the little black dog grew larger, it shook its head, and incredibly, three heads manifested.
Its aura surged, and it seemed that even a master in the Grandmaster Realm would be easily defeated by it.
The robed figure was clearly not expecting the little black dog to be so terrifying, retreating two steps in fear, raising their head to see Ye Guichen standing on the balcony, hurriedly shouting, "I am Gui Tuo, meaning no harm, merely wishing to meet Mr. Ye."
"Hmm?" Ye Guichen hadn't expected the other to speak, and there was already a hint of compromise in the tone, so he said to the little black dog, "Little Black, get aside."
The little black dog, hearing Ye Guichen's words, transformed back to its tiny form and really went to sleep in the corner.
This scene left Gui Tuo utterly shocked.
As a ghost, Gui Tuo was acutely aware of the terrifying feeling of heart-pounding fear just now.
If the little black dog had really pounced, they would likely end up as prey for it.
That such a terrifying little black dog would actually listen to Ye Guichen?
This, this is unimaginable!
Gui Tuo, who had initially harbored some doubts, thinking Ye Guichen was merely lucky to have captured a white-haired zombie, suddenly took him more seriously.
He wasn't even sure how he should face Ye Guichen now, feeling slightly anxious.
Seeing Gui Tuo remain silent for so long, Ye Guichen opened his mouth again, "You can come up."
"Oh."
Gui Tuo seemed a bit at a loss, and upon hearing Ye Guichen, their body floated upward, soon arriving at the second-floor balcony.
If Wen Cangfeng and others saw Gui Tuo so flustered, they would surely be stunned.
Although Gui Tuo was a ghost, they had existed for hundreds of years, and despite some memory lapses, their power was undeniable. Even Chu's Military God Chu Tiannan once said that if it came to a real fight, he might not be Gui Tuo's match.
Even someone like Zhang Chonglou, a real Taoist practitioner, might find it difficult to deal with Gui Tuo.
However, now Gui Tuo, in front of Ye Guichen, seemed like a student caught off guard by their teacher, not knowing where to place their hands.
"You're not human?" Ye Guichen finally saw Gui Tuo's face, somewhat ethereal and surrounded by heavy Yin energy, not resembling human at all.
Gui Tuo hastily replied, "Yes, I am a ghost, albeit with some memory gaps, not too clear on my own identity. I was previously regarded as the Grand Protector by Chu's Military God and did some work for Lord Military God, being nourished for years at the underground base, preventing my soul from dissipating. But ever since I saw Mr. Ye touch that potential stone, and after the potential stone shattered, my heart was stirred, a thought emerged, feeling that Mr. Ye might unlock my identity, leading me to visit at night, offending you unforgivably. I hope Mr. Ye can forgive me."
Not daring to slight any bit, Gui Tuo practically blurted out all their thoughts.
Ye Guichen was quite taken aback at what he heard.
The Grand Protector of the Thirteen Grand Protectors turned out to be a ghost?
But thinking back, it seemed rather reasonable.
Although Chu Tiannan is a peak military figure, he doesn't just deal with ordinary people but also tackles anomalous entities and creatures beyond ordinary understanding.
In such cases, recruiting non-human entities for their use is only logical.
Hearing that the other was the Grand Protector, confirming their character was assured, Ye Guichen nodded, "Let's talk inside then."
One human and one ghost went inside.
Ye Guichen sat on the sofa, yet Gui Tuo still didn't dare to sit, only seated after Ye Guichen insisted several times.
"Mr. Ye, that black dog out there, wouldn't happen to be what came from the potential stone, would it?" Gui Tuo hesitated for a long while before finally asking.
Ye Guichen did not conceal anything, nodding, "Yes, but I'm still not sure what exactly it is. Given you are a ghost, do you know?"
Gui Tuo shook his head in confusion, "I do not know, but the creature is likely from the other side of the Hidden Realm. Even according to Lord Military God, I might also be from the other side of the Hidden Realm, so I, I just thought..."
"I understand, you don't need to say more," Ye Guichen interrupted Gui Tuo. "Why did you choose me then?"
Gui Tuo gazed intently at Ye Guichen, "Mr. Ye, your identity certainly isn't simple. Though I'm still unaware of your exact identity, a voice in my heart tells me that following you, I might regain my memories and find out why I appeared here, pleading you to fulfill my wish."
"Oh." Ye Guichen didn't appear to have any intention of refusing.
This Gui Tuo, being a ghost with evidently considerable prowess, would undoubtedly be a powerful asset against the Seven Kings.
"Okay, I agree," Ye Guichen chuckled, "Since I am a disciple of Master Chu, and you are the Grand Protector, I naturally have no reason not to help, but in what form will you appear in the future?" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Ye Guichen was curious about Gui Tuo's existence, unsure how he should manifest in the world.
Seeing Ye Guichen agree, Gui Tuo eagerly exclaimed, "Mr. Ye need not worry about me, for as long as I am beside you, I will find a way. From today, you are my master, and should you have any orders, Gui Tuo will not hesitate, no matter the cost!"
With that, Gui Tuo knelt before Ye Guichen.
Although unsure of Ye Guichen's true identity, witnessing the obedient demeanor of the little black dog towards Ye Guichen, Gui Tuo had firmly decided upon him.
Now, he dared not ask too many questions, feeling that Ye Guichen certainly concealed an identity, potentially even a cultivator from legends.
Otherwise, how could he possibly control that fearsome little black dog?
Ye Guichen didn't continue to hassle Gui Tuo, becoming more intrigued by the little black dog instead.
Judging by the little black dog's demeanor, it was undoubtedly extraordinary.
However, with Gui Tuo's memory loss, nothing could be ascertained.
Alas, it seems the journey to the Hidden Realm is becoming increasingly urgent.
