Chapter 1039 - 1039 1025 Acquaintance

Chapter 1039: Chapter 1025: Acquaintance Chapter 1039: Chapter 1025: Acquaintance “Here’s some honey tea, it’ll help with the hangover from the drinks you had,” Song Xizhi placed all the food down together.

“Thank you.” Beyond these two words, Guo Yuyun didn’t know what else to say.

Guo Yuyun went on to say, “I completely don’t remember what happened last night, could you tell me about it?” Just a moment ago, she still suspected whether her sister had deceived her.

Song Xizhi had only just mentioned the events of last night, but his face turned red towards the end and he did not mention the fact that they had embraced.

It seemed that everything was true; her sister hadn’t been trying to scare her.

“I must have drunk too much last night, I can’t remember any of the craziness that followed,” Guo Yuyun appeared extremely embarrassed.

“Mhm, it’s good that you’re okay, but you can’t drink like that again. Your sister was really worried about you, she searched everywhere for you last night, almost turning the town upside down.”

Guo Yuyun could imagine that and managed to calm her previously agitated emotions.

“I must have caused a lot of embarrassing scenes while in my drunken frenzy, right?” Guo Yuyun just realized that this was not her usual room and the luggage in the room was not hers; thus, she asked, “Is this your room?”

Song Xizhi nodded slightly.

Guo Yuyun was now fully convinced that the events of last night were real, and she felt extremely regretful for having angered her sister.

Inside, she still felt somewhat guilty.

Nangong Yao secretly met with Si Nanyu in a hidden inn; Si Nanyu had heard about what happened at noon.

He was a young boy with a somewhat flat nose, yet he was very polite.

Upon meeting, he asked with concern, “Uncle Master, I’ve heard about Yan’er’s situation.” He did not know that Yan’er was no longer in danger.

Nangong Yao said, “You don’t need to worry about that anymore, she was rescued by a friend and is now at Peach Blossom Manor.”

“Wasn’t she kidnapped?” He felt that events had unfolded too quickly and he was still worried about what to do.

Nangong Yao continued, “Yes, we hadn’t anticipated that they would dare to commit the crime in broad daylight; they indeed captured Yan’er, but in the forest, they met a young man who rescued her.”

Si Nanyu was astonished upon hearing this and said, “Really, that’s great.” Otherwise, he wouldn’t have known what to do.

“You don’t need to worry about this matter, let’s talk about your plan instead.”

Si Nanyu had only kept his two closest people with him, and Nangong Yao had also only brought Song Yi and Guan Xun.

Si Nanyu said, “I know Uncle Master is worried that I would exchange Ouyang Yue for the Key Box, but I promise not to take out the Key Box.”

“Then how do you plan to save Ouyang Yue?” Not taking out the key meant that it would be wishful thinking to rescue Ouyang Yue in front of Qiandu Xiang.

“I will bring a fake Key Box with me when the time comes,” Si Nanyu replied, having thought it over many times.

Guan Xun said, “You want to trick Qiandu Xiang with a fake Key Box to exchange for Ouyang Yue, but he won’t be so easily fooled.”

“Yes, you’re right, I can’t just use a fake Key Box to deceive them and take Ouyang Yue away, but I want to use this fake Key Box to get close to Qiandu Xiang.” Si Nanyu needed help from others; he knew he couldn’t do it alone, and now that Nangong Yan was safe, it was definitely good news for him.

“Get close to Qiandu Xiang?” Nangong Yao didn’t know what Si Nanyu intended to do.

“I will carry gunpowder on me, he won’t dare to mess around,” Si Nanyu said confidently.

“Carrying gunpowder?” Nangong Yao paused, saying, “Are you planning to die with him? It won’t be that easy.”

That was indeed what Si Nanyu had in mind; he knew his martial arts were not strong enough to overcome Qiandu Xiang, but at least he could hold Qiandu Xiang off while someone else had the opportunity to rescue Ouyang Yue. He said, “Yes, it won’t be easy to perish together with the cunning Qiandu Xiang, but since he knows that I know where the Key Box is, he won’t dare to push me too far, so I won’t be in danger.”

“So you plan to distract Qiandu Xiang with yourself?” Nangong Yao guessed a portion of the plan.

“Right, anyway, I’ll be counting on Uncle Master to save Ouyang Yue when the time comes. My task will be to deal with Qiandu Xiang,” Si Nanyu thought. As long as he could delay Qiandu Xiang, there would surely be a chance. If he could rescue Yue’er, even at the cost of his life, it would be worth it. But he must not hand over the Key Box. He said, “If something really happens to me, tell Ouyang Yue ‘at the old place’.”

Nangong Yao looked at Si Nanyu, at a loss for words.

Si Nanyu added, “Don’t worry, I won’t just rashly seek a mutual destruction with Qiandu Xiang, I still want to live a good life with Yue’er.” At this moment, aside from the people by his side, the one he trusted most was Nangong Yao.

“Don’t worry, I will do everything I can to rescue Ouyang Yue.”

“Then I’ll have to trouble you. When the time comes, all our men will help you,” Si Nanyu continued, “I also contacted a bunch of friends who will also help you. Rescue Ouyang Yue, then get out of there. I will cover the rear.”

Nangong Yao found himself speechless.

“Qiandu Xiang won’t dare to act recklessly. He knows killing me would mean the location of the Key Box would be lost, so he wants me alive. You can be bold and rest assured,” said Si Nanyu.

What else could Nangong Yao say? He had come here to help Si Nanyu rescue Ouyang Yue.

“If things really spiral out of control, take Ouyang Yue to your Immortal Medicine Island,” Si Nanyu said, preparing for the worst.

“Don’t worry. Ouyang Yue is my Junior Sister’s daughter, I will definitely take good care of her,” Nangong Yao reassured him,

Si Nanyu was very confident in this assurance, adding, “There will be a lot of people in the square then, and Qiandu Xiang will find it hard to control. We’ll come as the rear guard, nothing unexpected will happen.”

Si Nanyu outlined his plan.

Nangong Yao was reassured that Si Nanyu had not handed over the Key Box.

Si Nanyu began going over the details, explaining how he intended to engage Qiandu Xiang, create chaos, then how to break through the confusion to rescue Ouyang Yue, and the escape route they would use afterward.

“Of course, nothing is one hundred percent certain. This is just what I’ve anticipated. There might be some changes, but they shouldn’t be too drastic,” Si Nanyu said.

Nangong Yao was very impressed with Si Nanyu, who seemed to have thought everything through and had a flawless plan.

Another day passed, and tomorrow would be the twenty-first.

Shao Hengjiang was also anxiously preparing. The streets of Sacred Spirit Island looked no different than usual, but there was a suffocating feeling in the air. The sun was unusually fierce, scorching the earth as if it intended to burn people alive.

Ever since he received the news from Ban Hong, Shao Hengjiang’s determination only grew stronger. He pondered that Si Nanyu couldn’t possibly be so foolish as to hand over the Key Box, especially after the old guy’s explicit warnings. So, he decided to have a backup plan of his own.

Wan Liyun asked, “Senior Brother, are you sure you’ll follow Qiandu Xiang’s people then?”

Shao Hengjiang smiled slightly and said, “Qiandu Xiang’s analysis is correct. We can use Ban Hong and follow them. As long as we keep an eye on them, we will definitely find the location of the Sacred Spirit Stone.”

Wan Liyun thought there was some logic to it and said, “It seems Ban Hong is quite useful after all.”

“I hadn’t expected Qiandu Xiang would think this way,” Shao Hengjiang said, surprised. Then he added, “Move what we need onto the ship.”

“Don’t worry, it’ll be done today. There will be no delay for tomorrow’s event.”

“Hmm, make sure to be careful and cautious,” Shao Hengjiang knew that tomorrow would definitely be a major confrontation.

Suddenly, Wan Liyun said, “I heard that yesterday, a group of men in black tried to capture Nangong Yao’s daughter.”

Hearing this, Shao Hengjiang grew tense and asked, “Capture Nangong Yao’s daughter, you mean the one called Nangong Yan?” Nangong Yao only had one daughter, it had to be Nangong Yan.

Wan Liyun didn’t expect Shao Hengjiang to react so intensely, he answered uncertainly, “Yes, she is his only daughter, borne by Fu Qiulan.”

Shao Hengjiang hurriedly inquired, “So, was his daughter captured?”

“No, it seems that a young man appeared midway, and he ended up rescuring the girl. She has already been taken to Peach Blossom Manor,” Wan Liyun continued, “Qiandu Xiang really is utterly wicked. He didn’t want Nangong Yao to help Si Nanyu, so he tried to grab his daughter, but luckily he didn’t succeed.”

When Shao Hengjiang heard that she hadn’t been captured, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, “She’s at Peach Blossom Manor now.”

“Yeah, it is said that two nights ago, Qiandu Xiang went to the Inn to see Nangong Yao and asked him not to help Si Nanyu. They had an unpleasant conversation, and Qiandu Xiang mentioned his daughter. Later, Nangong Yao sent his daughter off to Peach Blossom Manor, but he didn’t expect they would be ambushed by men in black on the way there. I think those men in black must be Qiandu Xiang’s men; only he would dare to be so brazen.”

“She wasn’t hurt, was she?”

“No.”

Wan Liyun continued, “But I think this action has definitely deeply provoked Nangong Yao. They will surely side with Si Nanyu to the bitter end.” Since their action failed, they couldn’t blackmail Nangong Yao, solidifying this certainty.

Shao Hengjiang said, “Qiandu Xiang really has a lot of tricks up his sleeve.”

“Yep, definitely a man who will stop at nothing,” Wan Liyun added, “If the Sacred Spirit Stone ends up in his hands, I’m afraid we will not have good days ahead.”

“Heh, who will end up with it in the end, who can say for sure?” Shao Hengjiang was becoming more and more interested in the Sacred Spirit Stone.
