My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 971: I Need to Be Fully Prepared

Seeing the old man's reaction, Guan Renwang and the others were dumbfounded.

They originally thought the old man would retaliate madly and kill Ye Guichen, but the current situation seemed quite odd.

"Haha, heaven has eyes, heaven has eyes!"

Suddenly, the old man crouched over his wheelchair, and unexpectedly lunged out of it, kneeling with a thud before Ye Guichen: "Young Master! You, you are the Young Master! I never thought, heaven would not destroy us, the hidden sect will endure eternally, and let me meet the Young Master here!"

"Wow!"

Guan Renwang and the others heard this and were completely stunned.

Young Master?

This surprise seems to be quite big.

Could this Ye Guichen be the Young Master of the hidden sect, the Son of Nether Emperor?

This sounds like pure fantasy!

Ye Guichen's face was stern, he lifted the old man up and said to Guan Renwang and the others: "You all go out first."

"Huh?" Guan Renwang and the others were taken aback, but immediately understood, probably realizing there were things to say, they quickly exited.

After Guan Renwang and the others left, Ye Guichen helped the old man up: "Whether I'm your Young Master is another matter, now, I need you to tell me everything you know."

"Young Master, you are definitely the Young Master!" The old man was moved to tears, his face full of excitement: "Only the bloodline of the Nether Emperor can easily cultivate the Xuanming Prison Suppressing Technique, and your constitution is different than others. I once held the Young Master, and am most familiar with your constitution, you are undeniably the Young Master!"

Ye Guichen furrowed his brows, though he had speculations earlier, the old man's words still stirred his mood: "So, according to you, my father is the Netherworld Emperor of the hidden sect? And the existing Seven Kings are the ones who killed my father?"

"Exactly, the Seven Kings caused chaos, and the Heavenly Dao has fallen. Young Master, you must avenge the Nether Emperor, put the Seven Kings on the God Slaying Platform, and execute them all, so as to comfort the soul of the Nether Emperor in heaven!"

The old man gritted his teeth, clearly full of hatred towards the Seven Kings: "Also, when I was the Great Ming King, I had many followers, as long as the Young Master commands, I will immediately gather my followers to reclaim the hidden sect and chop off those people's heads!"

Ye Guichen sighed.

Though it was hard to accept, it was clear the old man wasn't lying.

His lineage involved the Nether Emperor?

But now, even knowing his family background, what could he do?

The strength of the Seven Kings, with his current capabilities, might be difficult to contend against.

"Forget it, reclaiming the hidden sect is something to consider in the long run!" Ye Guichen helped the old man: "How long have you stayed here?"

"Twenty years!" The old man quickly replied: "Ever since the Nether Emperor was killed, I led my followers to flee everywhere, and finally set up a great formation here, allowing peace at last. Later, I used Hua Heshang to gather wealth, hoping to rise again, but unexpectedly, I encountered the Young Master here, truly heaven's blessing!"

"During the great chaos back then, among the Ten Kings, only three were loyal protectors, and I, the Great Ming King, was the only one who escaped. With those followers, there are probably just a dozen alive now, but these dozen are die-hard loyalists of the Nether Emperor. As long as the Young Master issues the Netherworld Emperor Order, they will surely come from the ends of the earth to aid the Young Master!"

The old man wanted to convince Ye Guichen.

But Ye Guichen understood that even if he could reach the hidden sect now and find the Seven Kings, it would be suicidal.

"I understand your intention, but the time is not yet ripe. Even the Xuanming Prison Suppressing Technique I've only cultivated to the second level, and what you said still needs time to verify. This time I'm planning to go to the Great Cold Mountain, as the Eternal Life Hall rises again, maybe there will be some clues there."

"Great Cold Mountain, Eternal Life Hall?" The old man perked up, raising his head sharply: "Young Master, I know that place, it was once King Qi's fief. If you say the Eternal Life Hall is rising again, it probably has some connection to King Qi, and I'm willing to help you there. Even though my legs are crippled and I'm blind now, my shamanistic skills may not be supreme, but still rarely have opponents. That Great Cold Mountain might be dangerous to others, but with me here, we'll surely tread it safely."

Ye Guichen thought of this as an opportunity, and did not refuse: "Alright, since you want to leave this place, join me then."

Thereafter, Ye Guichen followed the old man into the cave, seeing the wealth piled up like mountains.

It's all plundered gold and silver treasures, and adding them up is probably two or three times more than what was acquired from King Yan.

To Ye Guichen, wealth was merely numbers, and meant little in substance.

However, if what the old man said is all confirmed, then he certainly will have a battle with the Seven Kings of the hidden sect.

By then, relying solely on the people of the Heavenly God Temple likely wouldn't suffice.

Thinking over his options, Ye Guichen turned his gaze upon this Great Desert.

If he could unify the vast desert, using this wealth to gather experts, then facing the Seven Kings wouldn't be without a chance.

Yes, that's the plan!

Having decided this, Ye Guichen directly called Guan Renwang back from outside.

Seeing the mountains of wealth, Guan Renwang instinctively swallowed a gulp: "Others rumored Hua Heshang plundered many riches, but never thought it would be this much?"

Guan Renwang's subordinates were also all stunned.

If they didn't know of Ye Guichen and the old man's prowess, they might have long wanted to rob it.

"I'm giving all this wealth to you, to recruit soldiers and expand in the vast desert, do you have any questions?" Ye Guichen asked.

Guan Renwang was amazed, looking at Ye Guichen incredulously, pointing at his own nose: "Mr. Ye, you, you're really giving all this wealth to me, to dispose as I see fit?"

"That's right!" Ye Guichen nodded: "I don't care how you spend it, but it's all handed over to you, and starting now, the vast desert must establish order. Whatever method you use, if anyone dares disrupt order, they must be punished by law. I hope the warriors you recruit aren't just a ragtag bunch but are capable fighters, do you understand?"

Guan Renwang snapped out of his ecstatic state, glanced at Ye Guichen: "Mr. Ye, you, you really intend to fight against the hidden sect?"

Although he overheard only a little of the old man's conversation with Ye Guichen, the words "Young Master" were clear.

Considering Ye Guichen's skills, Guan Renwang naturally linked his extraordinary talent to Ye Guichen's background.

If really the Son of Nether Emperor, it's no surprise he'd have such achievements at his age.

So when Ye Guichen spoke of recruiting warriors, Guan Renwang basically speculated the intent.

Ye Guichen did not deny: "If I'm truly the Son of Nether Emperor, this battle will happen sooner or later, I'll definitely reclaim the hidden sect, but before that, I need to prepare thoroughly!"
