My Silly, Sweet Wife

Chapter 1436 - 1355: Feng Wuxiu Is Injured

Born from nourishing yin energy, not belonging to the monster category.

Things like this are probably as troublesome as the yin insects.

Ye Guichen never expected that so many bizarre species lived underground.

But those two creatures seemed intent on not letting Ye Guichen go.

Seeing Ye Guichen lift his head, they let out a piercing scream and lunged fiercely at Ye Guichen and Feng Wuxiu.

The speed was as fast as that of the previous yin insects.

Ye Guichen was unsure if he could kill the two creatures, but there was no time to worry about that now. As he saw the creatures lunging at him, he immediately brandished the Immortal Slayer Sword and slashed down with force.

Swish!

The sharpness of the Immortal Slayer Sword was unmatched.

With one slash, he directly tore open one of the creature’s wing-like appendages.

However, the creature’s regeneration speed far exceeded Ye Guichen’s expectations.

Almost the instant it was cleaved in two, the creature’s wing had already healed.

Meanwhile, Feng Wuxiu also slashed down with his sword.

But unlike Ye Guichen, Feng Wuxiu’s sword speed and force were far inferior.

After slashing down, not only did he fail to injure the monster, but he also angered it.

The monster’s body shook, dodging Feng Wuxiu’s sword, then its claw slashed across Feng Wuxiu’s back, ripping his shirt open and leaving a wound at least a centimeter deep.

The wound was hideous, with blood gushing out.

As if stimulated by the blood, the two monsters became more frenzied, attacking Ye Guichen and Feng Wuxiu madly.

After being cut open, Feng Wuxiu initially felt nothing, but soon began to feel cold all over, with slowed actions.

Before long, he became increasingly stiff and fell to the ground with a thud.

Ye Guichen was searching for weaknesses in the two monsters, completely unaware of Feng Wuxiu’s condition. Hearing the sound, he turned his head, his face paling more than a few shades.

"Hundred Swords Resonate!"

Ye Guichen shouted, commanding a hundred swords, slashing furiously at the two monsters.

The originally person-sized monsters were cut into countless pieces in the blink of an eye.

The liquid flowing from their bodies wasn’t red blood but black pus.

When the pus touched the skin, it still had strong corrosive properties.

Additionally, because the pus splattered, landing on Yang Buxiu, Yang Buxiu’s body was bit by bit corroded.

Not long after, Yang Buxiu’s half-body was corroded down to just a skeletal frame, with himself undeniably dead.

Ye Guichen couldn’t care less about Yang Buxiu’s life or death at this point.

Fortunately, these two monsters were not as abnormal as the previous yin insects, which could regenerate automatically after being cut open, rendering them unkillable.

However, the monsters’ ability to heal made Ye Guichen’s heart sink halfway.

Although they were cut into countless pieces, within a few minutes, the monsters’ bodies quickly gathered together, and as if in a precise operation, as soon as their body structures touched each other, they rapidly bonded, leaving no trace of injury.

This was downright maddening.

"Damn it, I won’t believe I can’t deal with you!"

Ye Guichen was also furious.

He sensed Feng Wuxiu’s aura growing weaker.

If he didn’t start treating Feng Wuxiu in the next few minutes, Feng Wuxiu might die there.

Since they followed him, Ye Guichen had to take responsibility.

Right, yin energy!

Just as Ye Guichen was in despair, a keyword suddenly sprang to mind.

Whether they were yin insects or these monkey-not-monkey, bat-not-bat monsters in front of him, they were certainly related to yin energy.

Since they lived by yin energy and fed on yin energy, it was probably like humans breathing air.

If he cut off all surrounding yin energy, they should fail without needing to attack.

Thinking of this, Ye Guichen immediately summoned the Jiuyou Tower.

He pushed the Jiuyou Tower forward, enveloping the two monsters.

Then, the Jiuyou Tower frantically absorbed the surrounding yin energy, instantly isolating a space and completely blocking out the yin energy within it.

The two monsters seemingly didn’t expect Ye Guichen to have such a treasure.

Enveloped by the Jiuyou Tower, they kept hissing, wildly striking the Jiuyou Tower, trying to escape from it.

Though the Jiuyou Tower seemed ethereal, its solidity was unmatched.

No matter how crazily the two monsters struck it, they couldn’t break free from the Jiuyou Tower.

With the passage of time, the two monsters gradually exhibited symptoms akin to suffocation, breathing heavily and their bodies turning limp.

Ye Guichen took advantage of the opportunity, slashing down with his sword and cutting off the head of one monster.

This time, the monster’s head did not regenerate.

Ye Guichen was pleasantly surprised.

He realized he had guessed correctly.

With another slash, he severed the head of the other monster.

However, Ye Guichen did not remove the Jiuyou Tower just yet.

If he withdrew the Jiuyou Tower and yin energy re-encircled the two monsters, reviving them, it would be a huge loss.

Anyway, since there’s dark energy here, Ye Guichen simply placed the Jiuyou Tower outside to let it absorb the dark energy. Then he released Gui Tuo, Yan Fang, and Little Black, instructing them to remain vigilant in the surroundings to prevent any sneak attacks from monsters or malicious individuals.

Ye Guichen quickly crouched down to examine Feng Wuxiu.

Aside from a hideous wound on his back, Feng Wuxiu had no other visible injuries.

However, the wound had already clotted, and the once bright red blood had turned black.

As time passed, the black blood seemed to be corroding Feng Wuxiu’s body.

Feng Wuxiu’s body became increasingly rigid and extremely cold.

This felt as if Feng Wuxiu was about to transform into an ice man.

Yet, this cold was entirely different from the coldness people usually feel; it was a sinister cold.

The kind of bone-chilling cold.

"Could the poison from those two monsters be that potent?" Ye Guichen knew that to save Feng Wuxiu, he must first find a way to expel the toxin from his body.

After rummaging through the storage ring a few times, Ye Guichen dismally realized that he had used up all his pills.

There were no pills left in the storage ring.

"I’ll have to try the Yimu Evergreen Technique." Ye Guichen grasped Feng Wuxiu’s hands.

The sinister coldness spread rapidly from Feng Wuxiu’s hands to Ye Guichen’s, as if it found its prey and tried to freeze Ye Guichen as well.

However, as soon as the sinister coldness touched Ye Guichen’s hands, a vast aura of Yimu burst out from within Ye Guichen.

The Yimu Evergreen Technique can nourish all things, promoting growth.

As long as there is a sliver of life, the Yimu Evergreen Technique can make it flourish.

Strangely, when the sinister coldness came into contact with the Yimu aura, it was instantly absorbed.

"Hmm?"

This discovery astonished Ye Guichen immensely.

Then, Ye Guichen did nothing to stop it, allowing the sinister coldness to surge into his body.

At first, the sinister coldness continuously flowed from Feng Wuxiu’s body into Ye Guichen’s, as if intent on freezing him as well.

But the moment all the energy entered Ye Guichen’s body, it was devoured by the Yimu aura.

Within a few minutes, the sinister coldness seemed to sense something amiss and ceased its flow into Ye Guichen’s body.

Not only that, but Feng Wuxiu’s frozen state also eased, and his heart, which was about to stop, began beating again.

Seeing this, Ye Guichen could only channel the Yimu aura into Feng Wuxiu’s body, hoping to use it to expel the sinister toxins from within him.

However, the effect was not evident.

Other than Feng Wuxiu’s breathing slowly recovering, the cold sensation didn’t alleviate.

Furthermore, it seemed that the sinister coldness had thoroughly entwined with Feng Wuxiu’s body.

If the coldness were entirely driven out, Feng Wuxiu would surely meet his end.

"What is this thing?"

Ye Guichen had never heard of such an aura.

Yet, he left a trace of the Yimu aura within Feng Wuxiu’s body.

Not long after, Feng Wuxiu slowly opened his eyes.

Sitting up, his eyes showed confusion.

"Mr. Ye, what happened to me?"

Ye Guichen didn’t know how to explain it either.

Nevertheless, it was undoubtedly linked to those two monsters.

"Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Ye Guichen asked.

Feng Wuxiu probed his body and shook his head blankly, "Not really, but I feel like my strength and speed have increased."

"Oh?" Ye Guichen’s eyes lit up, "Then give it a try."

"Alright!" Feng Wuxiu stood up, suddenly leaping upwards, his limbs clinging to the stone wall above like a gecko.

Then, with a gentle grasp of his hands, he unexpectedly pulled a stone down.

Feng Wuxiu, seemingly surprised by this newfound ability, was startled and fell directly from the stone wall above.

Bang!

He landed heavily on the ground, then sprang up like a carp into a stand.

"Mr. Ye, what happened to my body? Why is this happening?" Such abilities surely weren’t human; Feng Wuxiu felt as if he had transformed into an animal.

Ye Guichen couldn’t explain it either. Upon examining Feng Wuxiu’s body, he found that his temperature was only around ten degrees, completely different from normal body temperature.

"Your body seems to have undergone a mutation, but I don’t know what kind of mutation yet." Ye Guichen had to answer honestly, "Keep an eye on your condition, and if anything happens, tell me immediately."

After saying this, Ye Guichen noticed that the two monsters appeared truly dead, so he retrieved the Jiuyou Tower and collected the bodies of the two monsters into the storage ring.

The storage ring cannot hold living creatures.

By collecting them like this, the two monsters were easily taken into the storage ring, indirectly proving they were indeed dead.

Ye Guichen felt that bringing these two monsters back might yield some top-grade toxic pills.

Furthermore, regarding Feng Wuxiu’s body treatment, Ye Guichen felt it couldn’t be unrelated to the two monsters.

After handling all this, Ye Guichen didn’t retract Gui Tuo, Yan Fang, or Little Black but let them lead the way forward, continuing their venture into the underground depths.

Feng Wuxiu didn’t say much more, but after looking at his own hands and then at the treasured sword, he inexplicably felt a bit of distaste for the sword.

It seemed that his own hands were the best weapons.

Additionally, the severed arm gave a bizarre, unbearable itch.
