My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 1157: Reason Defeated by Desire

Yan Liang immediately replied, "Uncle Dongfang, don't worry. I know what should be said and what shouldn't!"

Then, he glanced at Ye Guichen, provocatively saying, "Kid, not just anyone can enter White Mist Valley. If you've got the guts, come in with me. Hehe, but whether you can come out might depend on fate."

After throwing down those harsh words, he walked straight into White Mist Valley.

Dongfang Feng and his group didn't hesitate further, nor did they waste words with Ye Guichen and Chu Liuxiang, quickly entering White Mist Valley as well.

Only when Ye Guichen and Chu Liuxiang were the last ones left at the scene did Chu Liuxiang swallow a gulp of saliva, his mouth twitching a bit, eagerly saying, "Oh my, Dongfang Yue is actually in White Mist Valley? This is a real opportunity to play the hero and save the damsel! If I can rescue Dongfang Yue, I could definitely soar to great heights!"

Ye Guichen rolled his eyes at Chu Liuxiang, "Weren't you too scared to enter White Mist Valley before, saying going in means death? What made you suddenly brave enough now?"

Chu Liuxiang chuckled, "The situation is different now. If I really can rescue Miss Yue'er, it's not just about soaring to great heights. This is a heaven-sent opportunity, didn't you see how Yan Liang didn't hesitate at all? Hehe, White Mist Valley may be dangerous, but once successful, all the dangers won't matter, and all the assessments for the marriage competition can be completely ignored."

Clearly, Chu Liuxiang was tempted.

Ye Guichen wasn't interested in Dongfang Yue in the least, but he was very intrigued by White Mist Valley.

According to Chu Liuxiang, there might be powerful demons in White Mist Valley.

Moreover, the valley is extremely mysterious, with no one knowing how it was formed or how it exists.

Some say White Mist Valley was once a place where true immortals cultivated, or perhaps where immortals were buried.

Of course, these are just rumors.

They've never been confirmed.

"Are you sure you want to go in?" Ye Guichen asked.

Chu Liuxiang hesitated for a moment, then smiled wide, "Brother Ye, I admit I didn't think much of you at first, but your skills are truly impressive, killing two beasts in a row, even Yan Liang is just like that. For someone like me, with no talent in cultivation but high talent in escaping, I've no hope of advancing further in this life. If I don't give it my all now, I'll probably never get anywhere. But if I could get in with the Dongfang Family, my status in my family would surely skyrocket. If I don't seize this opportunity, I'll be failing heaven's gift, won't I?"

Wow, what a sanctimonious speech!

Ye Guichen couldn't help but complain in his heart.

"Alright, I'll go in with you and take a look." Ye Guichen nodded.

Upon hearing this, Chu Liuxiang's eyes lit up immediately, "Then it's settled. You're not interested in Miss Dongfang Yue, so if anything happens, you handle it, and I'll take the credit, ahem, you understand what I mean, right?"

Ye Guichen nodded in understanding.

It's basically that Ye Guichen helps behind the scenes, while Chu Liuxiang takes the spotlight.

"What's in it for me?" Ye Guichen asked with a smile.

Chu Liuxiang chuckled, "Brother, as long as you help me win over Miss Dongfang Yue, any benefit you name is yours. If I can manage it, I'll even pluck the stars from the sky for you!"

"Bah, cut it out!" Ye Guichen couldn't be bothered to argue further with Chu Liuxiang, nor did he take Chu Liuxiang's promises seriously.

Since it's extremely dangerous inside, survival naturally comes first.

And whether they could even find Dongfang Yue was another question altogether.

Chu Liuxiang was completely blinded by desire, only thinking on the bright side.

"Let's go." Ye Guichen lifted his foot and stepped into White Mist Valley.

Chu Liuxiang quickly followed.

Not long after they entered White Mist Valley, Dongfang Hong and Dongfang Cheng also arrived.

They didn't see any trace of Ye Guichen and the others; after exchanging glances, they speculated that Ye Guichen might have already entered White Mist Valley.

"Hehe, we don't have to waste our breath now," Dongfang Hong said, "Brother Cheng, I'll go find that Ye fellow, you go find Miss Yue'er, let's split up, alright?"

"Alright!"

Without further hesitation, the two of them quickly entered White Mist Valley as well.

White Mist Valley got its name from being shrouded in white mist all year round.

After entering, Ye Guichen's first impression was that the spiritual energy here was extraordinarily rich.

Moreover, upon breathing, he discovered that even the white mist contained a very high concentration of spiritual energy.

No wonder there are beasts here; under such a high concentration of spiritual energy, it must be much easier for animals to transform into beasts.

However, due to the presence of the white mist, visibility was severely obstructed.

Fortunately, with Ye Guichen's current level of cultivation, he could perceive the surroundings within over ten meters even without using his eyes.

As Chu Liuxiang entered White Mist Valley, his whole body tensed up.

It was as if the scene before him had cooled his previously heated mind.

"Brother Ye, am I being a bit impulsive?" Chu Liuxiang's voice trembled a little.

Ye Guichen chuckled, "You made your choice, what's the use of thinking if it was impulsive or not? Maybe this really is a chance given by the heavens. Since you're here, just keep going forward."

"Then, then you can't stray too far from me," Chu Liuxiang followed closely beside Ye Guichen, carefully watching the surroundings, afraid that Ye Guichen would abandon him.

Moreover, Chu Liuxiang secretly cursed himself for so easily trusting Ye Guichen.

If Ye Guichen turned malicious, he figured even eight lives wouldn't be enough.

In White Mist Valley, killing someone would make it extremely hard to identify the killer.

But if he backed out now, not only would Ye Guichen look down on him, but this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity would be gone.

"Chu Liuxiang, you can do it, you can definitely do it!" Encouraging himself quietly, Chu Liuxiang regained his spirits and looked around.

Better not to look.

The more he looked, the more ashen Chu Liuxiang's face became, "Brother Ye, you can't tell direction at all here."

Surrounded by white mist, visibility was extremely low.

Even ten meters away, only hazy shapes could be faintly seen.

In these circumstances, if a beast ambushed them, it would be a dead end.

Ye Guichen ignored Chu Liuxiang and instead extended his senses.

He could feel countless eyes watching him as soon as he entered White Mist Valley.

Fortunately, those creatures hadn't transformed into beasts yet; they were just observing him, not taking any rash action, seemingly assessing him and Chu Liuxiang.

Moreover, Ye Guichen noticed footprints on the ground.

Those marks were likely left by Dongfang Feng's team.

Since the Dongfang Family members owned beasts, they must often frequent White Mist Valley, making them much more familiar with it than him.

So soon, Ye Guichen made up his mind.

Instead of wandering like a headless chicken, it was better to follow the Dongfang Family members.
