My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 1171: Seizing the Opportunity

"No, it's not impossible, I just didn't expect..." Zhu'er was a bit tongue-tied.

As the young lady of the Dongfang Family, a genius figure, both her appearance and cultivation talent are top-notch. Over the years, those wishing to become a son-in-law of the Dongfang Family have nearly worn out the threshold.

Like a proud swan, Dongfang Yue has never taken any man seriously, even once said that not even the Hidden Sect Seven Kings are worth her attention.

But now, she's dazed over Ye Guichen, whom she's only met once, and is wondering how to make Ye Guichen like her.

If Zhu'er hadn't heard it firsthand and confirmed it was indeed Dongfang Yue without any other possession, she would have thought she was dreaming.

"By the way, I heard that Ye Guichen comes from the Chen Family and went on a rampage for a woman from the Chen Family, sweeping clean the Chen Family in Xianju Mountain. Now that's a real hero, going crazy for a woman to such a degree is definitely worth a lifetime's commitment."

Suddenly, Dongfang Yue stood up, grabbed Zhu'er's shoulders, and said seriously, "Let's go, we're going to the Chen Family now. I have to see what's so special about the woman from the Chen Family that made Ye Guichen so devoted to her."

"Miss, the Clan Leader has forbidden you from leaving the Dongfang Family for six months. If you go out now, you will surely be punished." Zhu'er was extremely flustered, feeling her lady was bewitched.

But Dongfang Yue pursed her lips and said, "Zhu'er, they just treat me as a pawn, why should I be their pawn? Hmph, I'm going to be myself. In this life, I want to find someone worthy of entrustment. I know if I miss him, I will definitely regret it. Besides, once he becomes my man, would I fear the Clan Leader?"

Zhu'er was speechless.

She knew her lady's temperament; once decided, even eight hundred oxen couldn't pull her back.

Otherwise, the incident at White Mist Valley wouldn't have happened.

But now, with the heavy guard around the Dongfang Family, how easy is it to get out?

"Miss, do you really like him?" Zhu'er bit her lip, her cheeks blushing, seemingly finding it hard to say such a thing.

Dongfang Yue nodded vigorously: "At first, when I confessed, I didn't feel my heart pounding. But the moment he rode the ape, I knew I was committed to him for life!"

The adoration of beauty for heroes has always been an eternal truth.

No woman can escape it.

Dongfang Yue is no exception.

Zhu'er had no choice but to agree: "Alright, I'll figure out a way to see if I can take Miss out for a few days to visit the Chen Family."

...

It's late at night.

Ye Guichen had already arrived at the Chen Family.

The ape had returned to White Mist Valley.

However, Ye Guichen hadn't slept.

The sky was gloomy as if it might rain.

With the entire Chen Family immersed in darkness, Ye Guichen melded his form into the night.

Ye Guichen hadn't yet fully researched the object given by the great tree.

Only because the token-like thing was so profound that it seemed to exceed what Ye Guichen had encountered.

He reached the highest point in the Chen Family.

This is a stargazing tower.

Despite its name, it's nothing more than a tall tower.

The stargazing tower is one hundred meters high.

From the top of the stargazing tower, one can see the entire Chen Family Mansion, even beyond the mansion for over ten miles.

The original Chen Family has been completely obliterated, the bodies handled cleanly by Gongyang Lang.

Chen Ziran left with Jin Ling two days ago, going back to prepare for the Chen Family's relocation.

Entering Xianju Mountain, so the vast Chen Family Mansion now has hardly anyone.

The surroundings are cold and deserted.

Coupled with the previous massacre, it gives an eerie feeling.

Ye Guichen sat at the highest point of the stargazing tower, slowly closed his eyes, attempting to connect with the token given by the great tree.

Initially, no matter how Ye Guichen relaxed his mind, the token was nowhere to be seen.

Just when Ye Guichen felt he was using the wrong method, he suddenly felt his body lighten, as if falling off a cliff, then floating in mid-air.

"Is this..." Ye Guichen felt invigorated and looked up, startled to find himself seemingly in the sky a thousand meters high, overlooking the vast Xianju Mountain.

Though it was night, it appeared like daylight in Ye Guichen's eyes.

What's more, Ye Guichen could see the Xianju Mountain Formation, like a thin membrane appearing in his sight, no longer invisible.

Moreover, Ye Guichen could shift his focus to enlarge or shrink his view, seeing even an ant on the ground clearly.

"This is too miraculous!" Ye Guichen's throat moved, and he directed his focus towards the Dongfang Family.

Suddenly, Ye Guichen saw a pink cartoon-like room.

Inside, sat a woman in a camisole and shorts, staring blankly at the sofa.

This woman was familiar to Ye Guichen, it was Dongfang Yue.

However, Dongfang Yue looked bitterly timid, appearing unsatisfied.

After zoning out for a while, Dongfang Yue suddenly stood up, walked to the study next door, and started drawing briskly with pen and paper.

Soon, a portrait came to life.

Ye Guichen saw the portrait and almost spat out blood.

It was a gallant man.

Full of masculine charm, seemingly booming with male hormones, perfect to the extreme.

That man was none other than Ye Guichen.

"Could this woman really like me?"

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

He was about to shift his focus but saw Dongfang Yue begin to remove her last piece of clothing and head towards the bathroom.

"Cough cough, do not peek, do not peek!" Ye Guichen quickly redirected his focus, searching the Dongfang Family for a while until an indistinct raspy voice emerged: "Clan Leader, do you really intend to cozy up to that young Ye fellow and abandon the marriage alliance with the Yan King?"

"Hmm?" Ye Guichen found it strange and directed his focus on the voice's origin, discovering a middle-aged man lying on a bed.

In the man's arms lay a beautiful woman.

Neither wore clothes, having seemingly just engaged in a bout, evidenced by the sweat still rolling on their skin, indicating how intense the bout was.

"I don't want to either, but if that young Ye boy really controls the opportunity in White Mist Valley, we actually have no choice. I've heard from the ancestors that if one controls White Mist Valley's opportunity, it's equivalent to controlling all of Xianju Mountain."

"He becomes the land god of Xianju Mountain, omnipotent. Haha, though I find the ancestor's tale slightly exaggerated, we must take it with utmost caution. Our Dongfang Family has stood first in Xianju Mountain for so long, relying not merely on might but on brains too."

The beautiful woman nodded: "Then you truly intend to ally with the Chen Family?"

The Clan Leader's lips curled into a cold smile: "First go test, just to probe, it's not a bad thing for us. Haha, if that boy has truly obtained the opportunity, I don't mind letting Yue'er get close to him, opportunities aren't exclusive to one person, don't you agree?"

The beautiful woman blinked her big eyes, seemingly suddenly realizing something, both surprised and delighted: "You mean, if possible, seize the opportunity from that boy?"
