My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 988: Members of the Eastern Ninja Sect

"Such a Taoist technique!"

The fake Huang Fuqi shouted loudly, seeing that Yang Hongfu had broken through a path. He thought Yang Hongfu would fight desperately with him, but unexpectedly, Yang Hongfu had no intent to linger in battle.

Yang Hongfu threw a piece of talisman paper towards 'Huang Fuqi' with a backhand.

'Huang Fuqi' dodged to the side, but the talisman paper exploded right in front of Huang Fuqi.

Huang Fuqi was shocked, forced to retreat rapidly while parrying. But by the time he barely avoided the talisman's attack and opened his eyes, where was Yang Hongfu's trace?

"Damn it!"

Huang Fuqi's face darkened, hesitating only briefly before rapidly darting towards the direction of the swamp.

Yang Hongfu did not linger in the fight.

This place was originally the territory of the Witch God Sect. Since Ye Guichen and the others had already exposed their whereabouts, Yang Hongfu had to go help.

On the way here, under Huang Fuqi's guidance, Yang Hongfu easily leapt over the swamp outside the Great Cold Mountain.

Initially, Yang Hongfu didn't think much, assuming Huang Fuqi really possessed such ability to cross the swamp without alerting the water monkeys.

Now it seemed that those water monkeys in the swamp were likely raised by the person impersonating Huang Fuqi.

However, for Yang Hongfu, dealing with these water monkeys wasn't a difficult task.

Upon reaching the edge of the swamp, he quickly tied a red rope to a piece of talisman paper and then threw the talisman outward.

The talisman paper swiftly flew towards the opposite bank, guided by the red rope.

The talisman paper flew to a tree on the opposite side, lightly wrapping around it, securing it to the tree.

Yang Hongfu tied the other end on this side of the swamp, then leapt up, stepping on the red rope and swiftly moving towards the opposite bank like walking on grass, incredibly fast.

The water monkeys in the swamp were clearly startled, but seemed extremely afraid of the red rope, keeping a meter away, chattering incessantly, not daring to approach at all.

Within less than a minute, Yang Hongfu had crossed the swamp, flicked his wrist, retrieved the red rope, and quickly ran towards Ye Guichen's location.

Ye Guichen and the others were sitting under a big tree cooling off.

Seeing Ye Guichen unexpectedly released a Taoist signal flare, Li Jianyi's face turned pale: "Why did you release this signal flare? Isn't this asking for trouble? The people from the Eternal Life Hall will surely discover us, and by then, none of us will be able to escape!"

Gongsun Fengying also frowned: "Indeed, you've always been so smart, why make such a foolish move?"

Though Luo Huasheng also felt that Ye Guichen's action was unwise, he didn't voice it.

However, Xuanyuan Wudi, seeing Li Jianyi daring to question Ye Guichen, shivered, sending a wave of killing intent towards Li Jianyi, scaring him into promptly shutting his mouth.

Ye Guichen smiled faintly: "I just want to lure the people from the Eternal Life Hall here."

"What?"

This time even Luo Huasheng and Gongsun Fengying looked at Ye Guichen in shock.

Ye Guichen explained: "We don't know much about the Great Cold Mountain. Even with Senior Xuanyuan here, though we might not fear the poisonous insects inside, finding the location of the Eternal Life Hall is probably not easy. Besides, with that swamp there, who knows how many might get harmed? Rather than sitting and waiting for death, why not draw the snake out of its hole? I believe many will come soon, and by then, we can catch them all. Isn't that better?"

"What?"

"You intend to deliberately attract the people from the Eternal Life Hall and then kill them?"

"Are you kidding? It's simply a joke! We are so few people, no matter how strong, how can we possibly be their match?"

Li Jianyi shook his head vigorously, but upon seeing Xuanyuan Wudi, he was terrified into quickly closing his mouth again.

Ye Guichen did not continue speaking but said to Luo Huasheng, Gongsun Fengying, and Xuanyuan Wudi: "You three should first find a place to hide and observe the surrounding situation. Since there are people from other sects here, whether they are good or evil is a matter of later concern, but in a place like this, murder and robbery are common. It might happen over a word, or a tiny bit of profit. In a place without legal constraints, anything can happen. So, before then, I still don't want to expose myself."

Speaking, he smiled at Li Jianyi: "And from now on, I'm just a disciple of Wan Jian Villa, you should know what to do, right?"

Luo Huasheng and Gongsun Fengying exchanged glances, knowing Ye Guichen made sense.

If they all waited here, it would be easy to expose their target.

At times like this, it's best to hide first.

"Alright!"

Luo Huasheng and Gongsun Fengying didn't hesitate, quickly finding places to hide.

Xuanyuan Wudi was still a bit worried about Ye Guichen: "Young Master..."

"Hide the Wolf King too, many people envy your Beast Taming Technique. Haha, if it weren't for the Wolf King's appearance, I reckon the people from Wan Jian Villa wouldn't have wanted to waste words with us, right?"

Upon saying this, Ye Guichen glanced at Li Jianyi.

Li Jianyi quickly lowered his head, not daring to meet Ye Guichen's gaze.

Ye Guichen wasn't wrong.

The initial reason for wanting to befriend Xuanyuan Wudi was because of the Wolf King.

Being able to master Beast Taming Technique was more impressive than ordinary cultivation techniques.

Originally, Li Jianyi thought Xuanyuan Wudi was the fiercest one, but seeing Xuanyuan Wudi being so respectful to Ye Guichen, even addressing him as Young Master, left him even more astonished.

Once Xuanyuan Wudi also found a place to hide, Li Jianyi couldn't resist his curiosity: "Who exactly are you? That Old Blind Man is definitely not an ordinary expert, perhaps even a Martial Arts Grandmaster isn't necessarily his match? Yet he calls you Young Master—could you be from some reclusive great family?"

Among reclusive families, Wan Jian Villa nearly ranks in the third tier, just a bit stronger than the four major powerful families in the Capital City.

But compared to those true great families, especially the Seven Kings of the reclusive sects, Wan Jian Villa clearly isn't on the same level.

Ye Guichen didn't bother to answer, merely stating: "From now on, you're my master's junior. Things you shouldn't know, better not ask. Otherwise, if I get in a bad mood and kill you, don't blame me."

Seeing Ye Guichen speaking plainly, yet with a chilling undertone in his voice, Li Jianyi shivered in fear and quickly closed his mouth. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Next came a brief waiting period.

They didn't have to wait long before the first group of people discreetly approached.

This group had more than a dozen people, dressed extremely strangely, each with a sword at their waist and a '忍' character embroidered on their chest, making them look unlike Hua Country people.

They were extremely cautious, and upon seeing only Ye Guichen and Li Jianyi, half of them immediately went to stand guard, while the other half surrounded Ye Guichen and Li Jianyi.

An older man glanced at Ye Guichen, then set his eyes on Li Jianyi, "You people belong to Wan Jian Villa? Hehe, was it you who fired the Taoist signal flare just now?"

He spoke in standard Hua Country language.

Li Jianyi seemed to recognize who these people were, a trace of apprehension flashing in his eyes: "You, you're from the Eastern Ninja Sect?"
