My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 973: No Matter How You Scheme, I Remain Unperturbed

Actually, from the first glance at Wu Nuannuan, Shen Mu wanted to possess her.

After all, Wu Nuannuan was too beautiful, and her alluring aura made Shen Mu feel weak in the knees.

But because he wanted to pursue Ye Guichen, Shen Mu had kept silent.

Now that there's a need to test Ye Guichen, Shen Mu decided not to hide anymore.

Li Xiaosheng's expression tightened, "Young Master Shen, are you trying to cause internal strife?"

The group of Brown Bear quickly drew their weapons, eyeing Shen Mu warily: "What are you up to? Let go of Brother Monkey?"

Brown Bear roared, glaring angrily: "Let go of the monkey, or I'll tear you all apart!"

Shen Mu sneered, "At a time like this, you're still threatening me? Ha, previously I gave you money just to save some energy; don't think I, Shen Mu, can't actually kill Ye Guichen?"

Li Xiaosheng swallowed a gulp, knowing that if he displeased Shen Mu, the counterpart would certainly slit his throat.

Originally, he wanted to use Shen Mu's power to kill Ye Guichen and then seize Hua Heshang's treasure, playing the role of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. But now it seems that Shen Mu isn't an easy character to deal with either.

"Haha, Young Master Shen, you really know how to joke!" Li Xiaosheng laughed out loud, signaling Brown Bear not to move: "Young Master Shen, we're all one family, let's talk things out, besides, Miss Wu is already my woman."

As he spoke, Li Xiaosheng looked at Wu Nuannuan for help: "You agree, right?"

Wu Nuannuan had already recognized Shen Mu when she saw him, knowing he was the young master of the Kyoto Shen Family, a status higher than the deceased Shen Lian from the Su Family. Although Ye Guichen was currently ahead, even if he was capable, Shen Mu and his men were clearly formidable.

No one could predict who would ultimately succeed.

Wu Nuannuan's beautiful eyes sparkled and she quickly made a decision.

Marry Li Xiaosheng?

What a joke.

The words at that time were just a temporary measure.

Now, with someone like Shen Mu, if she could capture Shen Mu's heart, it would definitely be a great boost for the Wu Family.

"Li Xiaosheng, what do you mean? You said I am your woman? I'm still an innocent maiden." Wu Nuannuan, looking pitiful, leaned closer to Shen Mu: "Young Master Shen, they forcibly brought me here, and to escape I had to play along, but my body is absolutely pure."

"Miss Wu, what do you mean!" Li Xiaosheng hadn't expected Wu Nuannuan's sudden change, his face tightened: "You said once I become the king of the desert, you'll become my wife, were those words all false?"

Wu Nuannuan gently shook her head: "I said, that was just a temporary measure."

"You, you vile woman!" Li Xiaosheng's eyes turned bloodshot.

Wu Nuannuan pretended to be scared, moving closer to Shen Mu again.

Her soft and delicate body emitted an alluring aura, stirring Shen Mu's heart.

Shen Mu embraced Wu Nuannuan's waist, comforting: "Rest assured, Miss Wu, no one can bully you anymore."

Then, he pressed the sword against Li Xiaosheng's neck, causing a nick: "Well? Now, do you have anything else to say? Hurry up and leave, or don't blame me for being rude!"

"You..." Li Xiaosheng cast a venomous glance at Wu Nuannuan, "Fine, then I'll go test, wait here!"

Saying that, he pushed away the sword from his neck and signaled to Brown Bear and the others: "Let's go, over there."

Leading the way, he pursued Ye Guichen and his group.

"Brother Monkey, are we really going to fight Ye Guichen?"

"Yeah, that guy killed Hua Heshang as easily as slaying chickens, even with all of us combined we're no match!"

"Brother Monkey, don't make the mistake!"

Brown Bear's men were so frightened at the thought of testing Ye Guichen that they were ready to collapse.

After running some distance, Li Xiaosheng finally stopped: "Hmph, that vile woman!"

Looking back towards Shen Mu's group, Li Xiaosheng's eyes flashed with venomous intent: "Since Shen Mu is so unkind, don't blame me for being unkind. Hmph, a mere Ten Sword Immortals, what arrogance; if they wish to fight each other, let them dream on!"

"Huh? Brother Monkey, what do you mean?"

"What else can it mean, inform Ye Guichen to throw them against Shen Mu." Li Xiaosheng's eyes glinted with cunning as he moved quickly a few paces, towards Ye Guichen's group: "Wait a moment!"

Ye Guichen's party, riding fast horses, eager to reach the Heartless Sect, hadn't noticed anyone following, but suddenly heard a call, causing them to stop.

Upon turning back, they saw Brown Bear's group panting and catching up.

Sun Li drew her sword at the sight: "What are you up to?"

"Don't get us wrong, please don't!" Li Xiaosheng put on a friendly face, cupping his hands towards Ye Guichen: "Mr. Ye, I've long admired you. Seeing you today, you truly are charming and extraordinary!" 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

First, a round of flattery.

Ye Guichen sneered: "Why, you lurk about like eels, and now you show up boldly, surely not just to fawn over me?"

"No, no!" Li Xiaosheng chuckled awkwardly: "Mr. Ye, with your great power, we're just small potatoes, having no other intentions. Hehe, now we show our faces sincerely wanting to pledge allegiance to Mr. Ye, hoping you can grant us a lifeline and lead us to fortune."

Ye Guichen shook his head: "I'll not provoke if I'm not provoked; moreover, I'm not a bandit but it costs me nothing to kill you, so if there's no business, I'm not averse to burying you here!"

When Ye Guichen's words fell, Brown Bear's group immediately tensed with fear.

Li Xiaosheng felt an overwhelming pressure, nearly forcing him to kneel.

"Misunderstanding, Mr. Ye, misunderstanding, Shen Mu intends to kill you and I'm just here to inform you!"

With that, he quickly disclosed what he knew.

After listening, Ye Guichen laughed aloud: "Seems like you're indeed quite the eel; you're probably here to pit us against each other, not to warn me."

Li Xiaosheng hadn't expected Ye Guichen to see through his ploy, his mouth opened to explain yet Ye Guichen waved him off: "No need to explain; your survival skills prove your competence, and I don't mind sparing you at the moment."

"Thank you, Mr. Ye!" Before Ye Guichen finished speaking, Li Xiaosheng knelt hurriedly.

Ye Guichen sneered: "No need to thank me prematurely, and I care not for your scheming; besides, whether one Shen Mu comes or the whole Shen Family attacks, I fear neither!"

With this, he focused inward, shouting towards Shen Mu's direction: "Since you're here, reveal yourselves; after shadowing us, you must be tired!"

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaosheng and his group paled instantly.

Could it be he knew we were tailing all along?
