Chapter 1043 - 1043 1029 Key Box

Chapter 1043: Chapter 1029: Key Box Chapter 1043: Chapter 1029: Key Box Red Demonic Spirit muttered worriedly, “Now that Si Nanyu is dead, does that mean no one knows the whereabouts of the Key Box?”

Li Mo said, “That can’t be, if so, what would you do?”

Ye Chen said, “Let’s discuss it on the ‘Carefree’ ship.” He had no clues either and was currently unaware of the specific situation. Si Nanyu’s death was unexpected to everyone.

Black Demonic Spirit scoffed, “It seems we can only head to Iron Ten Thousand Island to become bandits.”

Nangong Yao, along with Ouyang Yue, escaped from inside. Knowing that Si Nanyu had died, Ouyang Yue fainted from grief.

Once Nangong Yao was sure no one was following, he hurried to a secret inn and hid inside it.

Si Nanyu’s death was also beyond Nangong Yao’s expectations.

Guan Xun looked over and asked in confusion, “Who was that person who opened a path through the encirclement for us? His martial arts seemed quite high, was he one of Si Nanyu’s men?”

Song Yi recalled and said, “No, it was the young man who saved Yan’er.”

Guan Xun looked over and asked, “How do you know?”

Song Yi hurriedly explained, “I met this young man when I was on the ‘Vault of Heaven’ ship. He has fought with the Fins Water Dragon; I recognize his martial arts. Although he was wearing a mask, it should be him—Yan’er said the one who saved her last time was also him.”

“Then he must have escaped.”

“Most likely,” Song Yi said, who had only cared about fleeing for his life; everyone had left, so he could not pay attention to what happened behind him.

However, Nangong Yao’s mind was full of thoughts. Qiandu Xiang had already become a force, and in the end, he would be the biggest threat. Although Ouyang Yue was rescued, Si Nanyu was killed in an explosion. The situation changed in an instant, and he had no idea what to do next.

As for where the Key Box truly was, it seemed that only Ouyang Yue might know, as he had told her what Si Nanyu had left behind.

Guan Xun said, “Master, leaving Qiandu Xiang behind will ultimately be a great disaster.”

Angered by the memory of the day they captured Yan’er, Song Yi said, “We should join forces with all the major island masters to deal with them together.” The few remaining survivors of Immortal Medicine Sect and Si Nanyu’s followers were no match for Qiandu Xiang.

“Heh, those are all crafty individuals, only thinking of themselves. You expect them to risk their lives to help us, which is impossible. It’s already good enough that they’re not demanding the Key Box from Ouyang Yue, let alone helping us,” Guan Xun said coldly, but he hit the nail on the head.

After listening, Song Yi said, “Without removing Qiandu Xiang, how can the people of the thirty-six islands expect peace? They should help us, or else they won’t have good days either.”

Guan Xun laughed, “Only you would think so. To them, it doesn’t matter—they don’t want to trouble themselves, especially now that Qiandu Xiang has taken control of the Sacred Spirit Sect and Si Nanyu is already dead. No one wants to die, and besides, on what grounds could we summon them?”

Upon hearing this, Song Yi felt deflated. With their strength, it was impossible to confront Qiandu Xiang. He said, “Master, are we just supposed to watch and do nothing as the Sacred Spirit Sect falls into Qiandu Xiang’s hands?”

“I’m afraid you can’t do anything about it. Qiandu Xiang is formidable, and few can match him. Besides, he is now the Sect Leader of the Sacred Spirit Sect, not to mention the numerous experts at his side,” Guan Xun shook his head.

Song Yi said, “So we just let him get away with wrongdoing?”

“Getting angry or anxious now is useless. Charging in won’t kill him, Si Nanyu’s death is proof enough.”

Never had Nangong Yao imagined that Qiandu Xiang’s martial arts were so extraordinary; even combined with Si Nanyu, they were not his match. He had only heard of Qiandu Xiang’s formidable skills but had never witnessed them, suspecting it to be an exaggeration. However, after seeing them firsthand that evening, he realized they were even more formidable than described.

Taking a deep breath, Nangong Yao thought that Song Yi was right. Such a menace, if not eliminated, would inevitably cause even greater chaos sooner or later, and this person’s ambitions were so vast.

But Guan Xun was also right. At the moment, hoping for reliable help from the dubious group of the thirty-six islands was wishful thinking. Why would they help Ouyang Yue? Si Nanyu had been blown to pieces, and no one wants to die.

Nangong Yao said, “Let’s head back to Immortal Medicine Island.” It was obvious that this place was unsafe for a long stay. Although they had temporarily hidden, staying on Sacred Spirit Island meant they would eventually be found by Qiandu Xiang and his men. Next time, they might not be so lucky.

As for Ouyang Yue, she had escaped, but her godfather was dead, and the heartbroken Si Nanyu was dead too. At that moment, she was inconsolable, her mind fixated on revenge.

But how could she seek revenge with her meager martial arts skills? Her wounds had not yet healed, and Qiandu Xiang’s people were searching everywhere for them, ready to find them at any moment. Even with her second senior brother present, and having formed an alliance with the Immortal Medicine Sect, they were no match for Qiandu Xiang. Who else could help her?

She suppressed her sorrow, quickly seized by a thought. Yes, the key. Taking advantage of the cover of darkness, she took Jiu Hu with her. Following the words left by Si Nanyu, they found the Key Box. This was her only chance for revenge. Although the map on her person had been confiscated by that executioner Qiandu Xiang, she had memorized it long before that, so the absence of the map didn’t matter. As long as she had the key, she could find the Sacred Spirit Stone.

With the Key Box in hand, she left with Jiu Hu, heading straight for Nangong Yao’s room.

Nangong Yao and the others were discussing what to do next when the door to the room was knocked upon. Ouyang Yue, accompanied by Jiu Hu, walked in. Now, the only ones Ouyang Yue could trust were Jiu Hu and Nangong Yao.

Not allowing herself to stay mired in grief, she immediately knelt down and said, “Uncle-Master, I beg for your help.”

Nangong Yao hurriedly helped her to her feet, saying, “Girl, speak your mind.”

“I want to avenge my father, and Si Nanyu and the others,” Ouyang Yue said through tears.

Nangong Yao knew how pitiful the girl was. So many things had happened in such a short time—her godfather had died, the man who loved her had left, and he could understand the kind of blow this was. Acting impulsively, he said, “I want to help you, but you’ve seen it yourself. In terms of martial arts and manpower, Qiandu Xiang is superior to us. Even if we joined forces, we wouldn’t be a match for him.”

“No, as long as we get the Sacred Spirit Stone, we can defeat them,” Ouyang Yue had thought it through.

“What, you want to use the Sacred Spirit Stone to confront Qiandu Xiang?”

“Yes, the Key Box is here. Even though Qiandu Xiang has taken the map, it’s etched in my heart. I can redraw it at any time.” This was the only solution she could think of. Of course, it would be good to have the Sacred Spirit Stone, but if she could get Nangong Yao’s help, it would be even better.

“Your father would never agree to this if he were still alive.” Nangong Yao was more conservative. After all, the Sacred Spirit Stone was too important, and it suppressed the two biggest monsters.

“There’s no other way to defeat Qiandu Xiang now. Only the Sacred Spirit Stone can do it. I must avenge them. Whether Uncle-Master helps me or not, I have to do this. My godfather is dead, Si Nanyu is dead. If I don’t avenge them, no one else will,” said Ouyang Yue with firm determination.

“I’m not saying I disagree with your revenge. Just don’t be too hasty. Besides, unearthing the Sacred Spirit Stone is a serious matter, not a trifle. It might attract more trouble.”

After hearing this, Ouyang Yue turned her face away and said, “Whether Uncle-Master helps me or not, I’m going to seek revenge. The only one who can avenge my father and Si Nanyu is me.”

Nangong Yao felt deeply sympathetic upon hearing this. This was his Junior Sister’s daughter, whose plight was truly pitiable. He had come here to help her. If even he didn’t assist Ouyang Yue, who else would? And since Si Nanyu had died…

It was completely unacceptable. If the Sacred Spirit Stone fell into the hands of Qiandu Xiang, it would be even more dangerous. He had to protect the Sacred Spirit Stone.

Ouyang Yue took back the Key Box.

Seeing the Key Box, Song Yi grew more confident about confronting Qiandu Xiang, saying, “Master, I think Ouyang Yue’s idea is feasible. Anyway, we have to deal with Qiandu Xiang. If we could get the energy from the Sacred Spirit Stone to help us, we wouldn’t have to fear Qiandu Xiang anymore. We would certainly be able to defeat him.”

Ouyang Yue said, “I’m only going to borrow it to defeat Qiandu Xiang. After that, I’ll return the Sacred Spirit Stone. It’s just a temporary loan; nothing will happen.”

Song Yi added, “We were just discussing how to deal with that devil Qiandu Xiang. With the Sacred Spirit Stone, it will be much easier.”

Hearing this, Ouyang Yue said, “If Uncle-Master doesn’t want to help, we can manage on our own.”

How could Nangong Yao allow Ouyang Yue and the others to take such a risk? If anything went wrong, it wouldn’t be acceptable. Ouyang Yue had made up her mind, and they were right; the devil Qiandu Xiang couldn’t be left to roam the earth. He had not even settled the score for the kidnapping of his daughter. If they indeed had the Sacred Spirit Stone, it was worth considering using its power to defeat Qiandu Xiang and help Ouyang Yue reclaim the Sacred Spirit Sect.

He couldn’t just stand by and let things spiral out of control, and then regret it later. He couldn’t leave this matter unattended.

He still had to protect the Sacred Spirit Stone. It seemed the only option was to get involved, to eliminate that devil first.

Ouyang Yue stood up, seemingly not wanting to make things difficult for him. At this time, anyone would be afraid of death, which he could understand. “Uncle-Master, consider it as if I never mentioned this matter. But I still want to thank you. Without your help, Ouyang Yue would have died on the execution ground long ago. I will remember this kindness in my heart. If I ever have the chance, even if it means working like an ox or a horse, I will repay it.” She took the Key Box and was about to leave.

Song Yi was anxious.

But then, Nangong Yao called out, “Wait a moment.”

Ouyang Yue stopped.
