My Silly, Sweet Wife-Chapter 1092: King Qin’s Spy
Chen Zhi didn't expect Ye Guichen to look at him. After a momentary panic flashed in his eyes, he quickly turned his head aside, pretending not to know Ye Guichen.
However, the waiter, eager to shine after receiving the gold bar, quickly waved at Chen Zhi after seeing him: "Sir, weren't you dining with that person in the private room? This gentleman is looking for you!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhi's face turned dark, he glared at the waiter, and swiftly entered the private room and escaped through the window.
At this moment, Chen Zhi really didn't want to confront Gongyang Lang directly.
After all, Gongyang Lang was a Cultivator. If he messes with him, wouldn't he be crushed to death?
The waiter was stunned for a moment, scratching his head in confusion: "Why the rush?"
Ye Guichen chuckled and said to Gongyang Lang: "Mr. Gongyang, could you do me the favor of bringing him back?"
"Why don't you go!" Gongyang Lang grumbled, but with Ye Guichen stretching lazily, remembering he still had to rely on others, he begrudgingly stood up.
With a swift movement, he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Seeing Gongyang Lang's speed, the waiter was shocked: "Is he... a Cultivator?"
"Yes, he is a Cultivator," Ye Guichen said casually.
The waiter sat frozen immediately, losing the appeal for the gold in his hands, and quickly pushed it towards Ye Guichen: "Haha, sir, it was a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! It's our honor to have a Cultivator dine at our place, it's free, free!"
The waiter was merely a Martial Artist, and the kind that can't fight well.
Daring to charge a Cultivator would be seeking death, wouldn't it?
Ye Guichen wasn't polite either: "Keep it then, I have plenty of money."
"No, really, I can't take it, sir, I really can't!" The waiter thought Ye Guichen was being courteous, how could he dare accept?
Although he didn't know if Ye Guichen was a Cultivator, anyone who could command Cultivators mustn't be simple.
Ye Guichen was actually not being polite, gold was just a burden to him.
He then rummaged through his bag, revealing a dozen more pieces of gold before the waiter: "Look, you can have them, I have plenty more here."
Subconsciously, the waiter glanced at Ye Guichen's bag, almost dropping his eyeballs.
"I really can take them?"
"Yes, you really can," Ye Guichen replied gracefully, pushing the gold back into the waiter's hands: "Do you know the person who ran away?"
Seeing Ye Guichen wasn't joking, considering that anyone associating with Cultivators wouldn't lack money, the waiter felt respectful while his face became increasingly obsequious.
"No, I don't know him well, but he was with a woman. It seems like those two have already run away." As he said this, the waiter's face changed multiple times suddenly: "Damn, they didn't pay, those freeloaders!"
"Another woman?" Ye Guichen pondered.
Fang Tiancheng was one of King Qin's men, and the fact that he immediately sought out this man and woman upon arriving at the Ghost Market meant he was acquainted with them, could they also be King Qin's people?
Ye Guichen quickly understood the connection.
Just capturing any one of them could lead to Fang Tiancheng and recovering the Spirit Stone.
He sighed inwardly, regretting not having Luo Shentong carry the gold and carrying the Spirit Stone himself, which would have saved a lot of trouble.
Now, finding the Spirit Stone would take great effort.
The saying "He with money is the boss" is always true.
Ye Guichen and Luo Shentong waited only a few minutes before the dishes were served.
As they were halfway through their meal, Gongyang Lang was already back, carrying Chen Zhi like a chicken.
Chen Zhi, expressionless, glanced at Ye Guichen after being thrown to the ground by Gongyang Lang, quickly lowered his head and stayed silent.
"You guys ate so fast?" Gongyang Lang commented as he sat down, seeing the food was already half gone, his face instantly darkened: "I was out working, and you didn't leave me any?"
"Ahem, let's handle business first!" Ye Guichen set down his chopsticks, picked up a toothpick, and looked smilingly at Chen Zhi: "Name?"
Chen Zhi raised his head: "I don't know why you captured me, but this is the Ghost Market. If the Great Demon King finds out you're acting recklessly, you won't be able to clean up the mess."
"Gender?" Ye Guichen asked again.
Chen Zhi turned his head aside, completely ignoring Ye Guichen.
Gongyang Lang narrowed his eyes: "Should I just kill him?"
Ye Guichen stopped Gongyang Lang: "Forget it, if he doesn't want to talk, then strip him."
"Huh?" Chen Zhi didn't expect Ye Guichen to have such a peculiarity, instinctively retreating two steps.
Luo Shentong, however, didn't care. He followed Ye Guichen's orders unwaveringly, stepping forward to strip Chen Zhi's clothes.
Chen Zhi didn't know what method Gongyang Lang used, but now his whole body was limp, unable to move, not even struggling.
It didn't take long before Chen Zhi was left wearing only his underwear.
This scene immediately drew the attention of the surrounding spectators.
Yet, upon knowing Gongyang Lang was a Cultivator, no one dared to make a sound.
From the pile of clothes, Ye Guichen quickly found two items.
One was something resembling a token.
The token was made of Hei Tie, with the word "Qin" engraved on the back and "Secret" on the front.
Ye Guichen didn't recognize it, so he raised the token in front of the waiter.
The waiter didn't dare slack and glanced at the token, subconsciously his lips trembled: "King Qin's secret agent?"
"King Qin's secret agent?"
"Yes, yes, this token is for King Qin's secret agents." The waiter had clearly been around for a long time and was aware of the Seven Kings' matters, casting a wary look at Chen Zhi: "Mister, you shouldn't ask me, King Qin is someone I can't afford to offend."
His implication was not wanting to elaborate with Ye Guichen, fearing King Qin's people would come looking for trouble.
Although the Ghost Market isn't big, there are many secret agents planted here by the Seven Kings, gathered sporadically totaling probably over ten thousand.
On average, each of the Hidden Sect Seven Kings might have arranged over a thousand personnel in the Ghost Market.
These people typically collect intelligence, deal with dissenters, and keep an eye out for treasures appearing in the Ghost Market.
Once something needed emerges, they'll acquire it regardless of the cost.
If you've stayed long in the Ghost Market, you'll know about the eyes planted here by the Seven Kings, but despite that, the Ghost Market remains a no-man's land, with the Seven Kings influential, yet still unwilling to challenge the Great Demon King head-on.
The Great Demon King is said to be not only a real Cultivator but also commands many followers; if he gets inadvertently provoked, the Seven Kings' agents here could all be uprooted.
Seeing the waiter reluctant to say more, Ye Guichen didn't press further, instead picked up another small bottle.
