My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 1169: Beasts Paying Homage

Wow!

As soon as Dongfang Yue spoke, Zhu'er, Dongfang Ming, and Dongfang Feng were all stunned.

Was Dongfang Yue too bold?

Ye Guichen scrutinized Dongfang Yue.

She was indeed a top-notch beauty.

Her features without flaw.

Her figure without flaw.

Even now, though somewhat disheveled, she still radiated a charming, pitiable allure.

Honestly, in the past, seeing Dongfang Yue would definitely have set Ye Guichen's heart aflutter.

But now, Ye Guichen's thoughts had changed.

Women were just women; having Chen Ziran was enough, more women didn't mean much.

It's just a passing thrill.

However, the pursuit of the path of cultivation remains the most eternal foundation.

Especially after witnessing the Snake-headed Man and that giant tree demon, Ye Guichen realized there might truly be immortals in this world.

Like those care-free sword immortals, who knows to what height they've ascended?

Could they slice through the sun, moon, and galaxies with one sword?

Heavens, what a vast and grand act that must be.

"Miss, you should think this over; we need to go back and seek the clan leader's permission," Dongfang Ming hesitated slightly and quickly stepped forward, trying to stop Dongfang Yue.

Dongfang Feng also hurriedly said, "Yes, this is no joke; it's not just your personal affair, it's about our entire Dongfang Family."

"Dongfang Ming, Dongfang Feng, though you're elders and my seniors, I'm not your Dongfang Family's bargaining chip. This time I managed to survive by luck; I want to live for myself, not for your sake."

Saying this, she directly grabbed onto Ye Guichen's arm: "I've decided, wherever you go, I'll follow you. Even if you're a bad person, I'll wander with you, commit crimes with you!"

Ye Guichen was filled with annoyance.

You think too highly of yourself!

"Ahem, are you Lady Dongfang Yue?" Ye Guichen drew his arm out of Dongfang Yue's embrace: "I'm used to being solitary, not fond of dragging baggage around…"

Dongfang Ming and the others were shocked at this sight.

As if they'd seen a ghost.

Did this kid Ye Guichen just refuse?

Oh heavens!

He actually refused Lady Dongfang Yue's overture?

Dongfang Yue pouted even more, seemingly never having received such a blow, gazing into Ye Guichen's eyes: "You, you... why?"

"No reason, we don't know each other. Besides, I killed people from your Dongfang Family, who knows, maybe I'll be your Dongfang Family's enemy in the future."

Ye Guichen grinned, not putting the prospect of being enemies with the Dongfang Family at heart.

"Alright, now that this matter is over, I should leave. If you want trouble with me, feel free to come at any time." Ye Guichen turned to leave.

But just then, the ground in the distance began to tremble.

Countless trees fell down.

Dongfang Ming's face sank, quickly jumping onto a big tree.

Soon after, Dongfang Ming jumped back down: "Not good, there's a herd of beasts charging this way, at least a hundred, we must leave quickly."

"What? A hundred beasts?" Dongfang Yue turned pale on the spot, frightened.

She had seen the prowess of beasts.

Even the most ordinary beasts, were not something she, an Innate expert not even a Qi refiner, could deal with.

A hundred beasts might trample them to death.

"Miss, what should we do?" Zhu'er was also frightened to stupidity.

Having barely escaped alive, they now faced this?

"Elder Ming, Elder Feng, should we flee deeper?" Zhu'er's voice trembled.

At these words, Dongfang Ming and Dongfang Feng were taken aback.

Yes, this is White Mist Valley, where could they flee to?

Fleeing back? 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

They wouldn't cut it.

Those Snake Demons were terrifying, and if they contemplated returning, they might not be as lucky as the last time.

But fleeing forward, wouldn't they be trampled to death by the beast herd?

Left and right were unknown, perhaps dangerous, but at least they offered a glimmer of hope.

"Don't hesitate anymore, hurry up!"

Dongfang Ming and Dongfang Feng guarded Dongfang Yue, urging loudly.

Yet before they could move, they woefully heard the sounds of beasts roaring and rushing from both the left and right.

The group's faces turned ashen, feeling like heaven was mocking them.

Nowhere to hide.

At this moment, Ye Guichen's mind was incredibly clear.

As if a pair of eyes could part the White Mist Valley's fog, overlooking the entire valley.

In Ye Guichen's vision, hundreds of beasts were charging from three directions.

There were all sorts of beasts, even the weakest seemed not inferior to the Two-headed Wolf that appeared at the Dongfang Family before.

"What's going on?"

Ye Guichen was curious about the things given to him by the giant tree.

For a moment, he couldn't understand how such miraculous things were created.

But simultaneously, Ye Guichen could sense that these beasts seemed to bear him no malice.

Given his current speed, deploying 'Divine Movement' to escape was absolutely feasible.

Moreover, Ye Guichen wasn't arrogant enough to think of facing hundreds of beasts with mere third-layer Qi refinement.

Unless his head had been kicked by a donkey.

Since there was no malice, perhaps it's worth waiting; maybe they're just passing by.

Ye Guichen thought this.

His heart harbored suspicions.

Maybe the area near the White Mist Valley giant tree had the most concentrated spiritual energy, but it was occupied by the Snake Demon, thus other beasts couldn't enter.

But now that the Snake Demon was dead and its Primordial Spirit was absorbed and refined by the giant tree, these beasts might have learned something and were therefore rushing over to absorb some spiritual energy.

Right, that must be it.

Thinking this, the beasts drew near.

Dongfang Yue and the others had long embraced the certainty of death.

In such circumstances, surviving would be a miracle.

"Miss, to die together with you, Zhu'er finds it worthwhile." Zhu'er held Dongfang Yue's hand, nervously watching ahead.

Dongfang Ming and Dongfang Feng exchanged a bitter smile, shaking their heads: "Who would have thought, our prestigious Dongfang Family's two elders would end up dying like this."

Too humiliating.

To be trampled to death by beasts, anyone hearing it would treat it as a joke.

"Hey, look closely, why did those beasts stop?"

Though Dongfang Yue felt certain of death, she watched Ye Guichen standing not far away, leaving his back to them, and kept staring at him, wanting to understand just what kind of man he was, bold enough to refuse her overture.

It was in this moment that Dongfang Yue witnessed a shocking scene.

Not only did the beasts ahead all stop, but even those coming from the left and right did as well.

They all stopped ten paces from Ye Guichen, taking no further steps forward.

Even the beasts with abundant demonic energy gazed at Ye Guichen with apprehensive eyes.

"What's going on? Why aren't they advancing?"

"Look quickly, what's that ape doing?"

As everyone was bewildered, a huge ape, six or seven meters tall, emerged from the beast herd and walked directly to three meters before Ye Guichen.

Then, the ape knelt down with a thud, pressing its head heavily against the ground, extending two extremely long arms towards Ye Guichen.

The next second, an even more shocking spectacle occurred.

All the beasts bent their forelimbs, as if bowing, heads were also pressed to the ground.

"Wha-what's happening?"

"They're, are they saluting that kid?"

The four members of the Dongfang Family were dumbstruck, shocked into complete petrification.
