My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 1133: Yan King, Feng Yuanshan

"Leave the rest of King Qin’s people to you. From today on, Ghost Market only has one voice, and no one can question this voice."

Ye Guichen spoke.

The subordinates of Hua Xiangrong were initially stunned and then shouted, "Yes, Young Master!"

No one dared to disagree.

In the past, Hua Xiangrong seemingly controlled Ghost Market on the surface, but her actual control was not strong.

Even in the dark, there were many who were stronger than Hua Xiangrong.

But now, Ye Guichen wants to completely change this situation.

What happened last night must have already been reported to the Hidden Sect.

King Qin was further confirmed to be guilty of assassinating the other kings.

Now, if King Qin’s men are killed and Ghost Market is sealed, the information won’t disseminate; let’s first allow the Hidden Sect Seven Kings to be in disarray.

"Hua Xiangrong, take the people to see Yan King’s men." Ye Guichen glanced at Hua Xiangrong.

Hua Xiangrong no longer glanced casually at Ye Guichen.

Without moving a finger, he killed a Qi Refiner, and Hua Xiangrong finally understood she had far underestimated Ye Guichen’s strength.

It seems this guy was pretending all along, intentionally.

"Yes, Young Master." Hua Xiangrong nodded respectfully, instructing her subordinates, "Everyone act, annihilate all the Seven Kings’ men in Ghost Market, leave none alive!"

"Yes!"

Someone took out a signaling firework.

The firework exploded in the sky.

By the lakeside, Housekeeper Hu was pacing back and forth, feeling increasingly uneasy.

"Housekeeper Hu, there won’t be any trouble, will there?" someone asked quietly.

Housekeeper Hu shook his head, "There shouldn’t be, right? With Mr. Feng and Du Duwei’s methods, Hua Xiangrong probably can’t stop him."

"But we haven’t figured out the methods of the Son of Nether Emperor at all." worried a subordinate.

Upon hearing this, Housekeeper Hu’s heart suddenly raced.

At that moment, a firework lit up the sky.

The firework exploded, revealing a ’magic’ character.

"The Great Demon King’s Demon Kill Order?"

"What is Hua Xiangrong up to? Could she be planning to kill someone?"

"Not good, something must have happened!"

Housekeeper Hu exclaimed in shock, glancing at the lake, suddenly seeing countless shadows rushing towards them.

A cold sweat instantly drenched his back.

"Housekeeper Hu, look, what are those people!"

Someone shouted again.

Housekeeper Hu followed the direction of the person’s finger, his face instantly turning to terror, "Quick, prepare to fight!"

...

"Mr. Feng, is the opponent really the Son of Nether Emperor?" In a dark room not far from Lake Heart Island, two people sat facing each other.

The speaker was in his forties, extremely respectful in demeanor.

His nickname was Hua Mao, known as the head of Yan King’s spies in Ghost Market.

Seated opposite him was Feng Yuanshan, Mr. Feng, recently dispatched by Yan King.

After the news of the Son of Nether Emperor appeared in Ghost Market reached Yan King, he deliberated for a long while, finally deciding to send a skilled person to investigate.

Then adapt to circumstances.

Feng Yuanshan was also a Qi Refiner, not holding any specific position under Yan King, yet Yan King trusted him immensely.

For many tasks others couldn’t handle, Yan King would send Feng Yuanshan.

Nothing else but Feng Yuanshan’s exceptional strategical prowess and cultivation.

Feng Yuanshan was silent for a moment, gently shaking his head, "The opponent’s identity is likely not false, and now the relationship among the Seven Kings is extremely delicate. Even if it’s fake, one must first strive to obtain him. Only by controlling that person named Ye Guichen, can we possibly gain the upper hand in the upcoming Nether Emperor dispute."

After a pause, Feng Yuanshan asked, "You’ve been observing Lake Heart Island these days; has the Son of Nether Emperor shown up? And for that arena contest, results should be out today, right?"

Hua Mao nodded, "Yes, but last night, something strange happened; there’s talk outside saying King Qin teamed up with Ghost Market’s Hua Xiangrong to kill Chu Huai Nan and others, and this news has spread widely; it probably won’t take long to reach the Hidden Sect."

"Do you have any doubts about this news?" Feng Yuanshan asked.

Hua Mao said, "Yes, not only doubt, but it feels like this requires enormous effort, not resembling Hua Xiangrong’s style. From what I understand of her, she never beats around the bush. If she really collaborated with King Qin, she probably would have announced it long ago."

"According to your opinion, is there a conspiracy here? Or perhaps, there’s someone backing Hua Xiangrong?"

Hua Mao was uncertain, "I’m still investigating this, but another piece of news came in this morning: King Qin’s men, numbering in the hundreds, are heading towards Lake Heart Island, led by Feng Wuxiu who mastered the impregnable Jingang art and King Qin’s Vice Captain Du Yinian. If they’re really acting against Hua Xiangrong, she might not be their match."

Feng Yuanshan didn’t speak and instead pondered over the information Hua Mao provided.

At that moment, a hurried set of footsteps could be heard.

Then, someone outside spoke softly, "It’s not good; the Great Demon King suddenly issued the Demon Kill Order and began a massive purge of the Seven Kings’ people. They’ve already clashed with King Qin’s people. It won’t be long before King Qin’s spies in Ghost Market are likely all exterminated."

"What?" Hua Mao jumped up, yanking the door open, "What exactly is going on?"

The other person quickly recounted the information they gathered.

After Feng Yuanshan listened to the conclusion, he suddenly interrupted, "You’re saying Feng Wuxiu and Du Yinian have not returned since entering Lake Heart Island?"

"Yes."

"That’s not right; Feng Wuxiu and Du Yinian’s cultivation is high enough that even if Hua Xiangrong set up a trap, the two of them should be able to escape if they wanted to. Could they really be colluding with King Qin?"

But upon thinking of this, he chuckled and shook his head.

If there really was collusion, and Hua Xiangrong’s people started killing King Qin’s men, wouldn’t that be chaos?

Feng Yuanshan continued pondering, feeling something was off but unable to pinpoint it, vaguely sensing a hand orchestrating behind the scenes.

"Mr. Feng, what should we do?" Hua Mao was somewhat anxious, "Yan King’s intention is to observe, not meddle, nor make enemies. But if Hua Xiangrong truly intends to annihilate all Seven Kings’ spies in Ghost Market, it won’t be long before she finds us here."

Feng Yuanshan didn’t respond, remaining silent.

Suddenly, he slapped his forehead, "Back then, Yan King didn’t act against the Nether Emperor, nor did he stop King Qin from attacking the Nether Emperor. This time, Yan King’s intention is to have us better understand this Son of Nether Emperor—determining whether he’s incompetent or a prodigy. If he’s incompetent, we continue to stay out, letting King Qin compete at will. But if he’s not incompetent..."

Hua Mao looked up at Feng Yuanshan, "Mr. Feng, could it be, Yan King wants to support the Son of Nether Emperor to regain control over the Hidden Sect Seven Kings?"
