My Silly, Sweet Wife

Chapter 1221: Laying the Trap

"Let's go, let's leave this place first," the Great Elder said in a low voice and turned to leave.

The others, seeing nothing more to watch and no advantage to gain, quickly left as well.

At this point, catching up with Su the Monster and Guan Laoguai was simply impossible.

Having witnessed such a top-level battle, they already had enough to brag about for a long time.

As the Great Elder and Lei Long headed back, it wasn't long before they encountered Elder He.

Upon seeing Elder He, Lei Long hurried forward and asked with curiosity, "Elder He, what are you doing here?"

Elder He had already gathered the bodies of several disciples and narrated the earlier events.

After listening, the Great Elder and Lei Long's faces suddenly stiffened.

"You're saying Ye Sheng went after the Three-headed Red Wolf?" Lei Long reacted most strongly. "Elder He, how could you let him chase that three-headed wolf? This is troublesome, really troublesome now."

When they saw the Three-headed Red Wolf, Ye Guichen's figure was nowhere in sight.

As speculated, it was easy to guess that Ye Guichen encountered the Three-headed Red Wolf first.

If that's the case, the possibility of Ye Guichen being eaten is very high.

"Great Elder, Elder Lei, there's no need to worry. At that time, I saw the Three-headed Red Wolf seemed to be showing signs of fainting, unsure of what poison pill Ye Sheng used." Elder He hurried to comfort them.

"Poison pill?" The Great Elder, having the deepest research on poison pills, sniffed twice upon hearing this, then his eyes lit up.

Though the poison pills had all exploded already, and most exploded inside the Three-headed Red Wolf's stomach, the lingering scent in the air couldn't escape the Great Elder's nose.

"That Ye Sheng, he managed to refine poison pills too, unexpected, truly unexpected. I never thought someone in this world would be interested in poison pills."

Lei Long muttered, "What good is interest? Now Ye Sheng is missing, dead or alive, if he really got eaten by the Three-headed Red Wolf, we'd have nowhere to regret."

At this moment, Lei Long had already pinned the future of the Dan God Sect on Ye Guichen.

If something truly happened to Ye Guichen, Lei Long suddenly felt directionless.

The Great Elder also felt somewhat frustrated, but at present, the safety of the Dan God Sect was more important.

"Alright, you two return immediately. I will personally go find Ye Sheng, dead or alive, I will find out what happened." After giving the order, the Great Elder further instructed, "Upon returning, ensure you strengthen the defenses of the Dan God Sect. Do not allow any lapses and be cautious not to let those two old monsters break through, understand?"

Lei Long nodded.

Elder He looked at Lei Long with a puzzled expression, "What old monsters?"

Lei Long explained the situation regarding Su the Monster and Guan Laoguai, causing Elder He's face to pale slightly.

"How can this sixth-tier mystical beast attract such strong individuals? This is a big problem. They're even scarier than sixth-tier mystical beasts."

However, given the current situation, there's no other choice.

The Great Elder quickly departed, chasing after Ye Guichen.

Lei Long and Elder He returned to the Dan God Sect, preparing defenses against an accidental intrusion by Su the Monster and Guan Laoguai.

Meanwhile, Ye Guichen grabbed the Three-headed Red Wolf with one hand and held three wolf pups in the other, using his mystical technique to speed away dozens of miles.

The Three-headed Red Wolf weighed several thousand pounds, but in Ye Guichen's hand, it felt light as a feather. Nonetheless, its large size meant it occasionally bumped against surrounding trees.

In doing so, Ye Guichen's speed slowed significantly.

Ye Guichen knew Su the Monster and Guan Laoguai wouldn't give up.

With their powerful cultivation levels, it wouldn't take long for them to catch up.

Running endlessly wouldn't solve the problem.

A lake appeared in Ye Guichen's view.

The lake wasn't large, spanning only a few miles.

Ye Guichen caught his breath, throwing both the Three-headed Red Wolf and the wolf pups to the ground.

The Three-headed Red Wolf tried hard to open its eyes, gazing at Ye Guichen, as if surprised it was him who rescued it.

It despised this human.

If it weren't for this human, it wouldn't have ended up like this.

But now, it was saved by the very human it despised, leaving it inexplicably grateful.

Especially seeing the three wolf pups unscathed, the eyes of the Three-headed Red Wolf welled with tears.

Ye Guichen was moved.

Humans have feelings, and so do animals, especially mystical beasts that have formed a Spiritual Sense.

The three wolf pups were small, seemingly oblivious to the events, burrowing under the Three-headed Red Wolf as if they were hungry.

But in its dying state, the Three-headed Red Wolf barely had any milk left.

Yet the wolf pups were unaware, persistently sucking.

Ye Guichen and the Three-headed Red Wolf exchanged glances, quickly surveying the surrounding terrain.

In no time, those two old monsters would surely arrive.

They would definitely deal with him first, then divide or maybe even kill the counterparts to seize the Three-headed Red Wolf.

Before that, Ye Guichen must make full preparations and not surrender without a fight.

"There's only one Hundred Gu Pill, meaning I can only face one expert. But even if I can deal with one expert, what about the other one?"

Ye Guichen believes he has the strength to kill an eighth-layer Qi Refinement practitioner but dealing with ninth-layer, or even Foundation Establishment experts, without the Hundred Gu Pill's help, is impossible.

The outcome is obvious—he'd be toyed with.

The vast gap between levels is so immense that even the Xuanming Prison Suppressing Technique's power can hardly affect those two old fellas.

Given Ye Guichen's current cultivation level, neither the Xuanming Prison Suppressing Technique nor the Yimu Evergreen Technique works against Foundation Establishment Experts.

It's like people from the land of small people fighting giants—neither bullets nor artillery would do more than tickle them.

But face them he must; he can't just run indefinitely. Even with the mystical speed technique, continuous running would only lead to exhaustion.

Should he leave the Three-headed Red Wolf and wolf pups as bait, and hide in the dark, hoping the two elders would fight each other?

At this thought, Ye Guichen realized he was being too naive.

He's already revealed himself; though the two elders don't know who he is, they certainly won't fall for it again.

After all, someone secretly wants to reap benefits; they might be fooled once but surely not twice.

"No, perhaps there is a way!"

Ye Guichen suddenly remembered the diverse array of poison pills he carried.

Although many of these poison pills don't match the intensity of the Soul Stealing or Hundred Gu Pills, in sufficient quantity they could still harm Foundation Establishment Experts.

Even if they don't die outright, they might show signs of poisoning, giving him a chance to strike.

Then let's do it.
