My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 1183: Utterly Unreserved

The entire hall was silent.

Everyone was staring at Ye Guichen, eyes filled with disbelief.

How is this possible?

A furnace producing five fourth-grade pills, is this a fantasy?

Even the outstanding disciples of the Four Great Pill Sects and even the Hidden Sect Dan Sect could probably not achieve this, right?

Along with the shock, many people felt doubt in their hearts.

But no one could prove it false.

Mo Changsheng also stood out: "That's right, Master Ye is just such a genius. No, genius is not enough to describe him. In truth, he is a prodigy on the path of Alchemy Dao! What, do any of you still have any doubts?"

No one spoke up.

To talk at this moment would be inviting trouble, wouldn't it?

Everyone's gaze fell on Sha Yuanshan, seeming to watch his reaction.

Sha Yuanshan hesitated for a moment, then reached out his hand to Ye Guichen: "Truly, heroes emerge from the young! Haha, I never thought Master Ye would be so formidable, I must express my respect!"

His attitude was extremely enthusiastic.

But Ye Guichen outright ignored him, not even bothering to glance at him: "Sorry, it's not me being arrogant, but apart from Elder Mo and Sect Leader Ye, I don't want to say another word to anyone else in the Penglai Pill Sect! Heh, don't think that isolating the Sect Leader means you can do whatever you want. If you want to embarrass me, go ahead and try! Of course, who will have the last laugh is still uncertain!"

Bang!

Ye Guichen's words were like a sudden clap of thunder.

Previously, Sha Yuanshan had no small ambitions, and because he was usually handling the sect's affairs, most people supported him, which gradually isolated the Sect Leader.

After Mo Changsheng returned, Sect Leader Ye felt he couldn't let this continue, so taking advantage of Mo Changsheng's pill offering, he brought Mo Changsheng to his side, intending to have Mo Changsheng gradually take power from Sha Yuanshan and become his confidant.

This was always an open secret, something no one would openly discuss.

Yet at this moment, an outsider had revealed it directly.

Everyone's face turned unsightly.

Sha Yuanshan's face became a mixture of green and purple.

"Sect Leader, did you say this?" Sha Yuanshan directly faced Sect Leader Ye, seemingly deliberately provoking everyone's anger: "They say family scandals should not be made public. Even if there are conflicts within our sect, isn't it too much to tell an outsider? Sect Leader Ye, don't you agree?"

"Yes, how can we let an outsider interfere?"

"This is utterly unreasonable!"

Many people began to clamour.

Feeling that Sect Leader Ye had acted too lowly in this matter.

Sect Leader Ye also did not expect Ye Guichen to speak so shockingly, but now he was unable to defend himself, and no matter what he said, no one would believe him.

Ye Guichen was not about to tolerate these people: "Ladies and gentlemen, you take yourselves too seriously. Heh, any discerning person can see this matter at a glance; does it need Sect Leader Ye to say it? Besides, all of you together mean nothing to me; I just wanted to give you a heads-up. The reason I came to the Penglai Pill Sect this time was merely to befriend Mo Changsheng and lend a hand. As for you, I wouldn't come even if you begged me!"

"Heh heh, so you better be self-aware. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave! Of course, if anyone wants to cause me trouble, bring it on. It's been a while since I last killed; I wouldn't mind throwing a few into the sea to feed the fish."

With that, he glanced mockingly at Sha Yuanshan, then turned to leave.

Sha Yuanshan could no longer maintain his composure, trembling with anger: "Well! How arrogant of Master Ye, but no matter how strong you are in alchemy, this is still our Dan Sect's territory! Wait and see, just wait and see!"

Sect Leader Ye never imagined things would develop to this stage, and could only shake his head in helplessness, gathering up all the pills and returning to his alchemy room, burying his head like an ostrich, pretending nothing happened.

Sect Leader Ye was good in every way, except for his tendency to avoid confrontation at times.

Mo Changsheng hurried after Ye Guichen, opened his mouth but didn't know how to advise him.

After a long time, Mo Changsheng said awkwardly: "Mr. Ye, I'm really sorry for what you've seen."

"There's nothing to be sorry about, Mo Changsheng. Without you, I wouldn't have come into contact with alchemy; you could be considered half a master to me. I am someone who repays kindness and retaliates against grievances clearly. Rest assured, since I've promised you, I will stand up for you. However, if someone wants to cause me trouble, I wouldn't mind dealing with them."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Ye, I'll first arrange a place for you to stay." Mo Changsheng knew that saying more would be pointless.

Ye Guichen didn't refuse: "Alright, arrange for me a place near the sea; I enjoy watching the ocean!"

…

That night.

Sha Yuanshan's room was filled with people.

Everyone was indignant about the day's events, voicing their grievances.

"Elder Sha, that Ye fellow is utterly lawless, insulting us in public!"

"Yes, this is intolerable, though I also find it strange how he shares a surname with the Sect Leader. Could he be the Sect Leader's illegitimate child?"

"Don't be ridiculous; Sect Leader Ye's gentle nature isn't fit to be the head of a sect, besides if he had such a prodigy of an illegitimate child, he'd have revealed him long ago."

"Elder Sha, what do you suggest we do? Sect Leader Ye never involves himself in sect affairs, and now he's brought someone to embarrass us, I can't accept that."

"Exactly, if worse comes to worst, let's force Sect Leader Ye to step down and have Elder Sha take charge. Elder Sha could surely lead us to glory."

Sha Yuanshan raised his hand, signaling everyone to stop talking.

"Everyone, I understand your concerns, but today that Ye was too arrogant. If we let him continue unchecked, our Penglai Pill Sect will lose face."

"Elder Sha, what's your plan?"

"We're all at your command, tell us what to do."

"Exactly, just give the word."

Sha Yuanshan snorted coldly, "Isn't that kid supposed to be strong in alchemy? Alright then, let's not clash with him in alchemy. Judging by his age, he's only in his twenties; even as a cultivation genius, he's likely only just entered the Innate realm. So, have Yuan Qing take a few disciples and give him a beating tonight, teach him a lesson. Also, warn him so that he knows who's really in charge of the Penglai Pill Sect!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

"Right, why didn't we think of that?"

"No matter how strong he is in alchemy, few can master both alchemy and martial arts. Heh, since that's the case, teach him a lesson, and he'll know his place."

"Elder Sha's idea is brilliant, Yuan Qing is the strongest in martial arts among the younger generation and has reached the seventh level of the Innate realm, outstanding even among martial arts sects."

"Alright, Elder Sha, I'll go make arrangements right away, just you watch!"

The crowd dispersed.

However, no one noticed that in the dead of night, two figures quietly slipped into the Penglai Pill Sect.
