My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 1076: Playing Dumb Is the Only Option

One night passed without words.

Early the next morning.

A shocking piece of news arrived.

Three days later, the head of Japan's Iaido challenges Ye Guichen, seeking revenge for the Eastern Ninja Sect, and boldly claims that after killing Ye Guichen, he will continue to challenge Chu Tiannan, aiming to trample the Hua Country Martial Arts World underfoot.

It was a huge uproar!

The martial arts community in Hua Country was directly thrown into chaos.

Many people didn't know who the head of Iaido was and began to inquire.

However, upon hearing about his terrifying reputation, each individual turned pale.

"Heavens, a dignified head actually challenges a young boy, isn't this too much of a bullying act?"

"Isn't Ye Guichen the newly appointed disciple of Chu's Military God, the one chosen by Chu himself? For the head of Iaido to jump out at this time and challenge him, it's intent on slaughtering Ye Guichen in the cradle."

"Sinister motives, absolutely sinister motives!"

"Damn it, no matter what, Ye Guichen is chosen by Chu's Military God, potentially a future star. If he really gets killed, then what about the future of Hua Country?"

Although many people didn't recognize Ye Guichen or know who he was, since he was acknowledged by Master Chu Tiannan, his skills must be extraordinary, likely a leading figure among the younger generation.

The head of Iaido's intention could not be clearer.

First, kill Ye Guichen, then Chu Tiannan, aiming to completely crush Hua Country's martial arts.

Momentarily, the name of Ye Guichen spread throughout Hua Country from north to south.

Chu Tiannan did not expect Iaido to come up with such a move.

He always thought that even if Iaido sought revenge, they would probably use assassination tactics, and by protecting Ye Guichen, their assassination attempts would be futile.

But unexpectedly, they are directly challenging.

"Lord Military God, what should we do now? If we don't accept the challenge, Iaido will definitely publicize that we're scared, which will not only damage the Hua Country Martial Arts World but also tarnish your reputation!"

Wen Cangfeng's expression was somewhat unpleasant.

Jin Ling furrowed her brow: "Yes, but if we accept the challenge, how could Ye Guichen be a match for the head of Iaido?"

The head of Iaido, claimed to have the ability to cut a waterfall with a single strike, with techniques that are mind-blowing; dealing with Ye Guichen would be overly simple.

Chu Tiannan furrowed his brow: "Discussing this now is futile, I want to hear Ye Guichen's own opinion."

Saying that, Chu Tiannan lifted his head and looked at Jin Ling: "Jin Ling, is Ye Guichen still stable?"

Jin Ling pursed her lips: "Stable indeed, but what good is stability at such a time?"

The implication was very clear, being stable at such a time is useless, sooner or later he would die at the hands of the head of Iaido.

Chu Tiannan said no more and merely instructed Jin Ling to bring Ye Guichen over.

After just a night, upon seeing Chu Tiannan again, Ye Guichen suddenly found Chu Tiannan appeared much older.

Obviously, he was shouldering a lot of pressure for him.

"You know why I'm looking for you, right?" Chu Tiannan looked at Ye Guichen, his face showing no hint of emotion.

Ye Guichen nodded: "Isn't it just the head of Iaido's challenge, Master Chu? Actually, you don't need to be conflicted; I'll accept the challenge."

"Don't be reckless!" Chu Tiannan's voice suddenly raised: "Do you really think saying you will fight means you can fight? Do you understand Jitian? He is a presence comparable to the Island Country Emperor; even I don't have total confidence facing him, how will you fight?"

Ye Guichen, arrogant before others, had no temper in front of Chu Tiannan, and had to say: "Master Chu, I understand your concern, but why don't you trust me? A mere head, I've never set my eyes on."

"Arrogance is good, but there's no need to be excessively so." Chu Tiannan glanced at Ye Guichen, his tone slightly relaxing: "You don't need to handle this, I will find a way to dodge the challenge. You just stay in the villa and don't come out; even if they curse, it won't matter!"

"But..."

"Enough, I've decided, you go back now." Chu Tiannan waved his hand: "You've become famous now, and many people are watching you; act cautiously, after all, you represent my reputation, don't act recklessly like before."

"Oh." Ye Guichen did not argue, nodding in agreement, turning to leave.

Just as he stepped out of Chu Tiannan's room, he was greeted by Wen Cangfeng and his group.

Jin Ling directly asked: "How did it go, what did Lord Military God say?"

Ye Guichen sighed: "Do me a favor and spread the word that three days later, I will duel the head of Iaido, Jitian, on Tai Lake."

"Gasp!"

"Lord Military God really agreed?"

"Ye Guichen, can you do it?"

"Yes, if you die, then what?"

Seeing Ye Guichen's relaxed demeanor, the people who originally showed hostility towards him now became worried.

Especially Jin Ling, who furrowed her brow, feeling that Ye Guichen was definitely doomed.

Wen Cangfeng continued to stare at Ye Guichen, sensing something was wrong.

Given Chu Tiannan's care for Ye Guichen, how could he let him walk into death?

However, in times like these, Wen Cangfeng naturally would not ask more questions; since Ye Guichen had said so, what was there to dispute?

Anyway, even if Chu Tiannan investigated later, Ye Guichen would bear the responsibility.

"Jin Ling, what are you standing there for? Quickly spread the news, let our Hua Country martial arts world know that Hua Country people won't cower!" Wen Cangfeng instructed Jin Ling to send out the message quickly, lest there be any change.

Once the message is out, it's hard to change it.

Jin Ling acknowledged and left.

Ye Guichen did not say much.

He knew Master Chu Tiannan wouldn't let him face off against a super expert like the head of Iaido, but he wasn't going to hide like a turtle.

A mere head, Ye Guichen truly had no regard.

This could be considered as deciding first, asking later!

Thinking this, Ye Guichen quickly reminded: "Also, Master Chu is not in a good mood now, don't disturb him!"

The crowd nodded upon hearing this.

The news quickly spread out.

"Ye Guichen actually accepted the challenge?"

"Heavens, is he seeking death?"

"Chu's Military God actually agreed too, damn, how can a twenty-something guy be a match for the head of Iaido?"

"Well done, I firmly support Mr. Ye, this kind of courage is a model for our generation; even if he dies, it's better than living cowardly like a turtle!"

Once the news spread out, it created another uproar.

Originally worried that Ye Guichen might hide, causing Hua Country's martial arts world to lose face, people's opinions suddenly shifted.

Chu Tiannan received the news only half a day later.

Seeing the overwhelming news online of Ye Guichen accepting the challenge, yet none of his subordinates reported it to him, his anger was understandable.

He initially thought of venting his anger but reconsidered and suppressed the urge.

Since the news had spread, taking it back was impossible.

If Ye Guichen really accepts the challenge, it's a near-death situation.

"This kid is really making me worry!"

Chu Tiannan, filled with bitterness, chose not to see Ye Guichen, instead acting as if he was unaware.

In such situations, all he could do was play dumb.
