My Silly, Sweet Wife

Sha Yuanshan’s lips trembled, but he was helpless: ”What exactly do you want?”

”Heh, it’s quite simple. We’ve heard that the Alchemy Conference is in a few days, at which time all the Four Great Dan Sects will be present. I just need Elder Sha to do one thing, and in the future, not only can Elder Sha become the Sect Leader of the Dan Sect, but also avenge himself. Isn’t that killing two birds with one stone?” Jing Shang’s lips curled up, looking confident in his hold over Sha Yuanshan.

Sha Yuanshan’s face turned ashen: ”Just say what you want to do.”

”Haha, now that’s straightforward!” Jing Shang signaled with his eyes, and John immediately took out a bag and threw it in front of Sha Yuanshan.

”These are thunder pills, a specialty of our Iaido. Although their explosive power isn’t very strong, they can still destroy a Pill Furnace and kill a few Qi Refiners without any problem. At that time, as long as Elder Sha places these thunder pills into those Pill Furnaces, the task will be accomplished.”

Sha Yuanshan’s pupils contracted, not expecting Jing Shang to be so ruthless: ”What do you mean by that? Those Pill Furnaces? Do you intend to kill the disciples of other Dan Sects too?”

”Haha, smart!” Jing Shang laughed heartily, completely unconcerned about Sha Yuanshan’s potential refusal: ”Your Four Great Dan Sects have a good reputation in Hua Country, and if something were to happen, I believe the Martial Arts World and even the Cultivation World of Hua Country would experience significant upheaval, don’t you think?”

”Impossible, absolutely impossible!” Sha Yuanshan fully understood what these people intended.

Pills are the foundation of cultivation.

If some genius disciples truly died, it would be a tremendous loss for the Dan Sect.

Simultaneously, it would also be a significant loss for Hua Country’s Cultivation World.

For Japan and overseas forces, this would undoubtedly be a huge boon.

Jing Shang, however, wasn’t worried about Sha Yuanshan refusing: ”Elder Sha, you don’t need to rush to say no. Just listen to this tune.”

As he spoke, Jing Shang reached into his pocket for something akin to a harmonica and gently blew into it.

Sha Yuanshan’s face turned pale instantly, clutching his stomach as he fell to the ground, cold sweat streaming down his forehead, his whole body twitching: ”Stop playing, stop playing, I agree, I agree!”

Jing Shang stopped playing the harmonica, smiling: ”This poison contains a magic poison insect, something learned from your Hua Country’s Witch God Sect. Heh, Elder Sha, I believe you’ll make the right choice.”

With those words, Jing Shang exchanged a glance with John, and the two quickly retreated.

Sha Yuanshan struggled up from the ground, his countenance had turned utterly pale.

His legs slightly wobbled as he hurried to the bedside, took out a small bottle from the nightstand, and poured it into his mouth.

But it was useless.

The bottle contained pills meant to restrain the poison insect.

After ingesting them, the poison insect not only didn’t die but also thrashed about, causing Sha Yuanshan unbearable pain again, falling to the ground and writhing.

It was only after quite some time that Sha Yuanshan weakly climbed up, his face looking exceptionally haggard.

Could it be that I really have to do something against my conscience?

Sha Yuanshan never imagined he would face such a day.

Despite having ambition, he never thought of betraying Hua Country’s Cultivation World.

But if he did, wouldn’t he become a sinner?

If he didn’t, wouldn’t he die slowly in agony?

Sha Yuanshan’s thoughts spun in circles, indecision plaguing him, and he eventually sighed: ”Forget it, I’ll do it more discreetly, and hopefully, no one will find out.”

...

Time flew by quickly.

As the elders and disciples of the other three Great Dan Sects arrived, the whole of Penglai Island became lively.

Sect Leader Ye also emerged from the pill room, along with Mo Changsheng and Sha Yuanshan, to greet the others from the sects.

Although Sha Yuanshan lost face under Ye Guichen, as an elder of the Penglai Pill Sect, he had to appear at such an important event.

”Haha, Elder Wan, long time no see. How’s Sect Leader Feng doing?”

”Yo, old Li, I didn’t expect you to personally lead the team to attend the Dan Sect competition here. Isn’t it really a waste?”

”Sect Leader Ye, you’re really polite. This time, I just want to see with my own eyes you Penglai Pill Sect being trampled under the feet of our South Sea Pill Sect! Haha, so I had to come.”
