My Silly, Sweet Wife

"You still want to fight me? Haha, well then, let's see how strong you really are!"

Zheng!

Feng Jiuling directly swung his treasured sword, emitting a sword hum, and thrust it toward Dugu Yue.

This move was called "Sweeping Leaves Over a Thousand Miles."

A single sword strike was like a gust of autumn wind.

However, the autumn wind carried a fierce killing intent, striking directly at Dugu Yue.

Now that the veneer had been ripped off, how could Dugu Yue hold back?

However, Feng Jiuling's Sword Dao was indeed rare in the world.

Now Feng Jiuling was the first to strike, and Dugu Yue found it not so easy to resist.

Puchi!

A single sword.

Feng Jiuling directly pierced Dugu Yue's shoulder.

Feng Jiuling laughed heartily and said, "Dugu Yue, you still want to fight me? Sure, I'm not as smart as you, not as capable, but so what? I'm still the master of Wan Jian Villa because I'm backed by Sword Dao, and you? You don't have it. What will you use to compete with me?"

He pulled the sword out and looked down at Dugu Yue, "Dugu Yue, for the sake of our acquaintance, as long as you voluntarily resign from being the Second Master of Wan Jian Villa, I won't kill you and will let you go."

Dugu Yue felt the pain from his shoulder, extended his right hand, and wiped the blood.

Then he put the blood into his mouth, licked it twice with his tongue, and a greedy expression appeared on his face.

"The taste of blood, it's truly delicious."

Raising his head, Dugu Yue looked at Feng Jiuling with a smile, "Villa Master, do you think you've won? Haha, are you perhaps misunderstanding yourself?"

"You..."

Feeling something was off, Feng Jiuling instinctively stepped back two steps.

When he saw Dugu Yue's wound rapidly healing at a rate visible to the naked eye, Feng Jiuling's expression finally changed.

"You, your injury..."

"Haha, Villa Master, I almost forgot to tell you, I went to Hefeng Valley, and my body was wounded by a creature, giving me an extraordinary healing ability. Moreover, my combat power is completely different now."

As he spoke, Dugu Yue suddenly tore off his shirt, his eyes instantly filled with blood color.

His pupils contracted slightly, in a blink, only pin-sized points remained.

Then, like a wild beast, Dugu Yue pounced forward with incredible speed, like an ape, directly knocking Feng Jiuling down.

Feng Jiuling was shocked.

Although he was the Villa Master and his Sword Dao level was rarely matched.

Encountering such a strange situation, he panicked momentarily, having no idea what to do.

Yet, instinctively, Feng Jiuling felt an unprecedented fear.

He exerted all his strength to bend his knee and violently struck Dugu Yue's abdomen.

Feng Jiuling initially thought his kick would send Dugu Yue flying.

However, it felt as if he had kicked a steel plate.

Feng Jiuling only felt his kneecap shatter.

With a scream, Feng Jiuling suddenly felt a chill on his neck, losing the ability to resist the next second.

However, Dugu Yue did not bite Feng Jiuling to death.

Just like when he bit Dugu Jifeng, Dugu Yue only sucked for a moment before letting Feng Jiuling go.

Then Dugu Yue stood up and looked at Feng Jiuling with a satisfied smile, "Villa Master, how do you feel now?"

Feng Jiuling wobbled as he tried to stand up, feeling the world spin.

After a moment, he finally regained his senses, "You, what did you do to me?"

"Not much, do you still want to kill me?" Dugu Yue crossed his arms.

"Kill you! I want to kill you!" Feng Jiuling glared furiously, raised his treasured sword, ready to strike Dugu Yue, but found he couldn't move his hand at all.

Inexplicably, it felt as if a bizarre force was binding him.

If he wanted to kill Dugu Yue, the force would extinguish him.

"What, what's happening?" Feeling this eerie force, Feng Jiuling was also startled.

He shook his head vigorously, trying to drive away this terrifying thought.

But no matter how he shook his head, the thought seemed imprinted in his consciousness.

"You, what exactly did you do to me?" Feng Jiuling asked in a panic.

Seeing Feng Jiuling's reaction, Dugu Yue was satisfied.

"Haha, indeed, indeed, Feng Jiuling, from now on, I am your master. If you don't listen to me, I can kill you with a single thought!"

Dugu Yue nonchalantly sat in the master's seat, looking down at Feng Jiuling, "So, do you submit or not?"

Feng Jiuling struggled internally.

But that subconscious thought completely took control.

After a long time, Feng Jiuling knelt weakly in front of Dugu Yue, "Master, please give your orders!"

"Haha, haha!" Dugu Yue laughed heartily.

Just then, someone from outside reported, "Villa Master, there's a young man named Ye Guichen who came with a beggar. He said he caught a swindler."

"Ye Guichen?" Dugu Yue's eyes gleamed, a cunning smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, "Unexpectedly, this brat really delivered himself right into our trap."

Feeling the subtle connection with Feng Jiuling and the control over him, Dugu Yue suddenly came up with a plan.

There's a treasure on Ye Guichen, but it's not easy to make him hand it over.

However, if I can bite him, can I control him too?

By then, if Ye Guichen becomes my puppet, won't I be able to have anything I want?

Thinking of this, Dugu Yue felt satisfied and commanded Feng Jiuling in a deep voice, "Feng Jiuling, act according to the situation later. Make sure Ye Guichen can never leave Wan Jian Villa in this lifetime, understand?"

Feng Jiuling lowered his head, "I obey, sir."

Suddenly thinking of something, Feng Jiuling raised his head, "What about my daughter, Chu Chu?"

"Haha, Miss Chu Chu should be in bed with my son right now, right? Don't worry, since you acknowledge me as your master, I naturally won't let Feng'er mistreat your daughter." Dugu Yue said playfully.

Feng Jiuling's eyes froze suddenly, bursting with intense anger.

However, subconsciously, that willingness to obey Dugu Yue quickly suppressed this anger.

Elsewhere, Ye Guichen was led into Wan Jian Villa.

At first glance, he saw the Dragon Sword embedded in the meteorite.

"Little brother, why is this sword inserted here, is it real?" Ye Guichen asked casually, akin to Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden.

The guide didn't conceal anything, answering every question.

He narrated the origin of the sword.

Having heard, Ye Guichen became intrigued, "So can I try pulling it out?"

"Pff!" The guide laughed directly, "You want to pull it out too? Haha, don't even think about it. Even the Villa Master of Wan Jian Villa can't pull it out. Since Wan Jian Villa was established, many have tried but failed. Even a Golden Core cultivator had no success previously. I reckon no one can pull it out."

Ye Guichen tilted his head, his interest growing.

But for now, let's meet the Villa Master of Wan Jian Villa first.

As for pulling out the sword, there's no rush.

After walking for a while, Feng Chuchu hadn't come to find him, causing Ye Guichen to feel suspicious.

Logically, upon hearing of his arrival, Feng Chuchu would definitely come to him immediately.

There should be no delay whatsoever.

But now, not only has Feng Chuchu not appeared, even the deeply envious Dugu Jifeng hasn't shown up.

This made Ye Guichen feel increasingly that something was unusual.

Not just that, even Feng Wuxiu hadn't appeared.

Could something have happened?

Ye Guichen wouldn't risk his life recklessly.

Though aware that his cultivation was sufficient to handle those from Wan Jian Villa, who knows what schemes or plots they might have?

It wouldn't be worth it if his life was accidentally squandered.

To be safe, Ye Guichen released Gui Tuo and Yan Fang, sending them to investigate the situation.

The two ghosts had intelligence like humans, unlike the remaining souls that communicated in a way Ye Guichen couldn't fully understand.

For a large-scale search, widely casting nets with those residual souls was definitely doable.

But within Wan Jian Villa, using Gui Tuo and Yan Fang was enough.

After releasing the two ghosts, Ye Guichen deliberately asked, "Little brother, where are you taking me?"

"Don't you want to meet our Villa Master?" The guide glanced at Ye Guichen.

"Oh, then what about Miss Chu Chu?" Ye Guichen asked as if casually.

The guide clearly didn't know about the relationship between Ye Guichen and Feng Chuchu, and chuckled, "I'm just a servant. How could I know what Eldest Miss Feng is doing? Besides, the Second Master's son is deeply infatuated with Eldest Miss Feng. They might be spending time together now."

"Oh." Ye Guichen found himself unable to get a clear answer, so he stopped asking, following Wei Lin to the conference hall.

Entering the conference hall, only Feng Jiuling was inside.

Seeing Feng Jiuling, Ye Guichen detected a familiar scent.

This smell was emitted from the monster encountered underground at Yin Ghost Sect.

It wasn't quite a stench of blood, but more like blood mixed with foul fish and shrimp.

Though faint, Ye Guichen's nose couldn't miss it.

"What's going on, why is that scent here?" Ye Guichen raised an eyebrow, feeling increasingly perplexed.

"Young man Ye Guichen, greets the Villa Master." However, Ye Guichen quickly pressed this doubt down and cupped his fist towards Feng Jiuling before gesturing to Wei Lin, "This is Brother Wei, who cheated Dugu Jifeng out of ten thousand Spirit Stones. I hope the Villa Master will bring Dugu Jifeng out to recognize him, so we can resolve the misunderstanding between us."

"There's no misunderstanding about swindling our Wan Jian Villa's money!" Unexpectedly, Feng Jiuling had no intention of calling Dugu Jifeng, instead sneering, "Thank you, Nephew Ye, for your trouble, this person, kill without mercy!"

As he spoke, Feng Jiuling suddenly drew his sword, thrusting it straight at Wei Lin, intending to kill Wei Lin before Ye Guichen.
