My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 1017: When the Dust Settles, Smoke Rises Again

"The stone gate opened?"

"What's going on?"

"Quick, look, there are so many tombstones behind the stone gate."

"Look, those tombstones are actually buried with swords. Is this the Sword Tomb?"

"What is the Sword Tomb?"

Xuanyuan Wudi was also extremely shocked: "I've heard that some sword enthusiasts bury all their swords after death. To them, these swords are like lives, and the graves for these swords are the Sword Tomb."

"Graves for swords?"

Everyone found it unbelievable when they heard.

Ye Guichen, however, immediately noticed the foremost tombstone of the Sword Tomb.

A string of characters was written on the tombstone: Tomb of the Carefree Sword Immortal.

The handwriting was powerful and firm, as if carved forcefully into the stone by someone's index finger.

"Carefree Sword Immortal? Is it truly the Carefree Sword Immortal?"

Almost the moment he saw the stele, Ye Guichen felt like his head was struck by something, it hummed slightly.

A moment later, it seemed like many things were added to Ye Guichen's memory.

"Five Dragons Gold Sword, Silver Snake Treasure Sword, Two-bladed Frost Sword..."

Ye Guichen murmured to himself, naming each Sword Tomb he passed by.

"Here is the Phoenix Feather Sword, here is the Kongbu Sword, this one is the Bagua Sword, and that one, the Wandering Dragon Treasure Sword..."

Every sword that Ye Guichen pointed at, he could accurately name, leaving Yang Hongfu and the others speechless.

"What's happening to Brother Ye?"

"How does he know the names of those swords?"

"Look at him, he seems so strange!"

Ye Guichen became increasingly excited as he spoke.

There were hundreds of treasure swords, Ye Guichen knew them all by heart.

After naming the last treasure sword, Ye Guichen's eyes were slightly red.

The Carefree Sword Immortal had passed all his memories to Ye Guichen, and each sword seemed like a story.

In the past, Ye Guihua doubted the existence of immortals in the world.

But now, there was no longer any doubt.

Every sword here was the life of the Carefree Sword Immortal, each was like his child.

The Carefree Sword Immortal was renowned for carefreeness, all his life he only sought to be happy and free.

But after meeting that woman, everything changed.

He even wanted to give up everything for that woman, to teach her all he had learned in life.

But what was the result?

That woman, in order to obtain the Sword Tomb of the Carefree Sword Immortal, killed him at a critical moment of his cultivation.

The Carefree Sword Immortal, in utmost despair, used his last vitality to escape from that woman, hiding the Sword Tomb here.

Hidden for eight hundred years.

"Young Master, are you alright?" Seeing Ye Guichen not responding, Xuanyuan Wudi asked cautiously.

"I'm fine!" Ye Guichen snapped back, looked at them, and said, "From today onwards, this place will be a forbidden area, guarded by dedicated personnel. Anyone who dares to enter without me, will be killed without mercy!"

Ye Guichen spoke earnestly.

This Sword Tomb contained hundreds of treasure swords, if any were unearthed, it would surely cause a great stir.

Though Ye Guichen had obtained the Carefree Sword Immortal's inheritance, his ability could drive just one sword at maximum. It would take a long time to control these hundreds of swords.

Before that, this place must be safeguarded.

Xuanyuan Wudi, seeing Ye Guichen's high regard for these treasure swords, immediately nodded, "Young Master, I am willing to personally guard this place!"

"Good!"

Ye Guichen did not refuse.

He trusted Xuanyuan Wudi's loyalty.

Moreover, in a place like Great Cold Mountain, with many venomous insects, it was most suitable for Xuanyuan Wudi to guard here.

"Let's go, there's nothing more to see here." After the recollection just now, Ye Guichen roughly understood what had happened before.

The Carefree Sword Immortal surely tested him with spiritual power, not physically.

The process seemed very long, but to others, it was merely an instant.

Thus, by the time Yang Hongfu and the others came down, the test had actually ended.

Otherwise, Yang Hongfu and the others might also have had to undergo the test and could have ended up dead.

After leaving the pit, they received news from Meng Po, still no useful items from the Eternal Life Hall were found.

Ye Guichen no longer cared about these matters.

However, Yang Hongfu did find the corpse of Gu Liangren, who was actually Mr. Shier, Huang Fuqi.

"Alas, to think that esteemed Mr. Shier would become a puppet." Yang Hongfu sighed long while gazing at Huang Fuqi's corpse, "I had some acquaintance with Mr. Shier, I will arrange for his spirit to be released, and I will naturally report to Lord Military God, no need to trouble you, Brother Ye."

Ye Guichen nodded, not saying more.

With Xuanyuan Wudi and Meng Po, Ye Guichen's identity as the Young Master was quickly recognized by the Witch God Sect people.

Even those few who were unconvinced were no match for Xuanyuan Wudi and Meng Po.

Any sign of doubt was met with instant decapitation to avoid any future troubles.

Ye Guichen stayed at the Great Cold Mountain for another three days, completely subduing the Witch God Sect before leaving.

However, this trip took half a month, during which outside events had dramatically changed.

Firstly, the Shennong Sect had been reestablished in full swing, with much more fame than even at its peak.

In just half a month, almost every city had opened a branch of the Shennong Sect.

In places like Jinling, nearly half the Traditional Chinese Medicine Halls had become associated with Shennong Sect, even if not directly under it, had inextricable ties with it.

Some Chinese Medicine Halls even actively sought to become branches of Shennong Hall, offering a share of their profits annually.

Besides, Chen Ziran's Dragon Tomb Peak project progressed vigorously, the Chen Group further expanded and seemed poised to enter the national top 100 companies.

However, at a critical stage of the Dragon Tomb Peak project, a problem arose.

A worker using an excavator unearthed a gigantic stone.

The stone had a diameter of over ten meters and under normal circumstances, such a stone would be crushed and disposed of, but they couldn't break the stone no matter what method they used.

This directly hindered the progress of the Dragon Tomb Peak project.

Even Wang Tianxing of the Azure Dragon Group, seeing the inability to remove the stone, summoned numerous experts to use martial arts to shatter it, but without exception, all failed.

Chen Ziran was anxiously pacing, not knowing what to do.

But at this moment, people from the Tianjing Qin Family appeared, negotiating with Chen Ziran to buy the Dragon Tomb Peak project.

The Dragon Tomb Peak project was Chen Ziran's effort, so naturally there was no reason to agree.

But they also said they would give Chen Ziran and Wang Tianxing a week to consider; either allow them to purchase the Dragon Tomb Peak project, or they would take it by force, and if that happened, not only would the Chen Group and Azure Dragon Commerce lose the Dragon Tomb Peak project, they might even lose the money received for it.
