Super God Grandmaster
Chapter 1093 - 1093 1079 The Decision

Chapter 1093: Chapter 1079: The Decision Chapter 1093: Chapter 1079: The Decision Ouyang Yue reflected on it carefully and felt it made sense, saying, “Right, the Black Demonic Spirit isn’t wrong. Finding our people is not safe. Among our people, there might be those who belong to Qiandu Xiang, and now we can’t figure out who it is.”

“So, what do you plan to do?” Ye Chen asked curiously.

“I don’t know either. What do you think we should do now?” Ouyang Yue asked in return.

Ye Chen said, “Stop thinking about it. Let’s finish eating, and you should get a good sleep. I believe you’re quite tired as well.”

“Can we go in search of the Sacred Spirit Stone?”

“Just the two of us!” Ye Chen found it somewhat hard to believe.

“Yes, just the two of us. What do you say!”

The Black Demonic Spirit became excited, saying, “Of course, we can do it, we will definitely help you find the Sacred Spirit Stone.” How could he not be excited? It was the Sacred Spirit Stone that could restore his body, something he desired even in his dreams.

Ouyang Yue thought to herself that Ye Chen’s martial arts skills were exceptional, and, with the whereabouts of Nangong Yao unknown, finding them would probably be dangerous. She asked Ye Chen, “What do you think?”

“You need to make up your own mind.”

“Hey, you’re not going to steal the Sacred Spirit Stone, are you?”

“If I really wanted to steal it, I would have taken your Key Box by now.”

Suddenly there was a disturbance from behind them, the sound of trees cracking, indicating something massive was approaching. Ye Chen didn’t know what it was and quickly stood up, turning around to see a ten-foot-tall Phoenix Monster staring straight at him.

Ye Chen assumed a fighting stance, but he stopped quickly when he realized the Phoenix Monster had no intention of attacking him. This was quite strange indeed. He glanced back at Ouyang Yue and asked, “What does this mean?”

“It must think you’re its master.”

After a moment’s thought, Ye Chen said, “But I haven’t controlled it.”

“But you must have communicated with it.”

“Right, we communicated, but before, it was very resistant,” said Ye Chen who hadn’t expected the Phoenix Monster to find him.

Ouyang Yue asked, “What did you do to it?” She knew that the Phoenix Monster had always heeded Qiandu Xiang, so how had it suddenly switched allegiance?

Ye Chen replied, “Last time, when I fought with it, I used a few Silver Needles on it and subdued it. That’s all there was to it.” Now that he was sure the Phoenix Monster did not intend to attack him, he felt more at ease.

“Why don’t you go ahead and take it under your control? Standing so tall, it will be spotted,” she said.

Ye Chen quickly conjured up a stream of energy and collected the Phoenix Monster into his hand, transforming it into a small crystal. This time the process went smoothly, as there was no resistance.

“So this means it’ll listen to me from now on?”

“It should, I guess.”

The Black Demonic Spirit was the first to get excited, saying, “Then we have a helper from now on.” He had fought the Phoenix Monster before and knew how powerful it was. Having the Phoenix Monster’s help was like having a cavalry; their escape this time was largely thanks to the disruption caused by the Phoenix Monster.

Seeing that Ye Chen had subdued the Phoenix Monster, Ouyang Yue said, “Okay, the two of us will go in search of the Sacred Spirit Stone.”

Ye Chen was still very surprised and said, “Are you sure?”

“Yes, the two of us will search for the Sacred Spirit Stone.”

It seemed this girl had pinned all her hopes on him for the Sacred Spirit Stone.

“At any moment, I might be compelled by desire, you know,” Ye Chen said on purpose.

Ouyang Yue, trusting Nangong Yan’s words, laughed and said, “If you really want to snatch it away, there’s nothing I can do. It’s all about your conscience.”

Ye Chen chuckled in response.

The surroundings quieted down at that moment.

Ouyang Yue said, “We’ll find the Sacred Spirit Stone first.”

The Black Demonic Spirit stated, “Restore my body before anything else when we find it.”

“First, make sure you’re not found by others,” Ye Chen said, believing that many were searching for Nangong Yan at this time.

“I think the Key Box would be safer with you,” Ouyang Yue reasoned, now much more rational and trusting in Ye Chen.

“You can’t afford to get into trouble. If something happens to you, that girl will definitely give me grief,” Ye Chen firmly believed.

“If something really happens to me, avenge me,” she said.

“Hey, don’t talk like that.” To be honest, Ye Chen did feel some sympathy for this girl, especially considering her past experiences which were quite moving.

Ouyang Yue felt a wave of sleepiness but also a sense of being lost as she gazed ahead.

“What’s wrong?” Ye Chen asked with concern.

“It’s nothing. I just resent not being able to kill Qiandu Xiang. It feels unsatisfying,” Ouyang Yue admitted, still upset.

“Nobody can guarantee a hundred percent success in the face of unforeseen events. Managing to escape is already quite remarkable.”

Ouyang Yue fell into a brief contemplation; after the two had eaten, time passed and the night deepened. The woods became quieter, and they couldn’t help but feel a chill.

“I heard you and Nangong Yan got married.”

Ye Chen chuckled and said, “That’s all fake. I was captured, and before I knew it, I was married without knowing anything.”

Ouyang Yue let out a chuckle, thinking of Si Nanyu, and said, “You really have a tough fate, don’t you?”

“Why do you think so?”

“In order to save the people of the Immortal Demon Domain, you put on the ring and almost fell into deviltry, nearly killing the person you like. Now you don’t even know what might happen next,” Ouyang Yue said with a hint of worry.

“Mhm, I believe things will get better.”

Ouyang Yue went on to say, “Mhm, but many loved ones have died.”

“Hey, don’t be so sad, Nangong Yan and the others are your family too.”

“Right now, I just want to kill Qiandu Xiang and avenge them; I don’t care about anything else.”

“You can’t think like that. Revenge is necessary, but you also need to live. Your senior brother sacrificed his life to rescue you. It wasn’t easy. You should live well for her sake,” Ye Chen said encouragingly.

Ouyang Yue looked over with a sudden touch of emotion, “If I could choose, I would’ve rather he didn’t come to save me. But he was just that foolish, insisting on coming to my rescue, or else he wouldn’t have died.”

“Hey, don’t talk like that. You need to live well to honor him.”

“I’m really sorry for dragging you into this.”

“There’s no need to talk like that. I came to try my luck in borrowing the power of the Sacred Spirit Stone from your godfather. I never imagined I would run into such a situation,” Ye Chen said as he stoked the fire, making it blaze higher. The Black Demonic Spirit and the Red Demonic Spirit had long been exhausted, huddled near a tree, already fast asleep.

“The Sacred Spirit Stone, can it destroy the ring?”

“Divine Doctor Zhu told me so. But aside from destroying the ring, I also want to help the Red Demonic Spirit and the Black Demonic Spirit regain their bodies. I promised the Red Demonic Spirit years ago.”

“It seems you’re quite a man of your word.”

“Let’s not talk about this anymore. Don’t think too much. If you want to find the Sacred Spirit Stone, let’s go find the Sacred Spirit Stone.”

“Thank you.”

“What’s there to thank?”

Ouyang Yue said, “I thought I was going to be taken away, but you rushed in and saved me. Shouldn’t I thank you?”

“You’re wrong there. I was pushed in by Nangong Yan. You should thank her. She knew you were in trouble and sneaked away from the Immortal Medicine Island to find you.”

Ouyang Yue smiled and said, “That girl fears nothing and never has. She’s always been like this.”

“Yeah, she’s a real madcap, totally reckless.”

“Mhm, she’s always been like that, a very simple girl.”

“Get some sleep, we have to get up early tomorrow.”

Nangong Yan escaped with Shao Hengjiang and, by midnight, didn’t know where her own father had gone. She was very anxious and asked, “Godfather, where’s my father?”

“It was too chaotic. He led people to escape in another direction. But don’t worry, I’ll have someone find them as soon as possible,” Shao Hengjiang said, relieved that his daughter was unharmed.

Nangong Yan murmured, “I hope that girl is alright.”

“Don’t worry, with Ye Chen protecting her, she’ll be fine.”

“Damn, how did things end up like this?” A perfect plan was ruined, leaving her quite unwilling to accept it.

When disciples brought them food, Shao Hengjiang handed Nangong Yan a water bag to calm her nerves, and Wan Liyun flew over and said, “Indeed, they were all from the island.”

Nangong Yan was astonished and said, “So there really are people still alive on the island.”

Shao Hengjiang asked, “What exactly is the situation?”

“There used to be several factions on the island, but now only Pan Jianglong’s group remains. They call themselves Xiyue and are the Island Masters of Xiyue Island.” Wan Liyun continued, “The ones attacking us were Pan Jianglong’s people. They must have captured someone and learned the situation, so they went after Ouyang Yue. Fortunately, Ye Chen released the Phoenix Monster, which threw everything into chaos; otherwise, we would all have been done for.”

After listening, Nangong Yan said, “Then it seems Sister Ouyang Yue is really in danger.”

“You worry too much; Ye Chen is with her, isn’t he?” Shao Hengjiang said.

Nangong Yan slapped her forehead and said, “Damn, if I could guess the Key Box was with Ouyang Yue, how could others not?”. She shook her head continually, aware of the danger, and asked, “Can we find them?”

“Everything’s gone haywire, just as you said. I reckon it’s not just Xiyue’s people looking for them, but Qiandu Xiang as well.”

Nangong Yan thought and said, “Right, they must be hiding. To think that Qiandu Xiang managed to escape.”

Wan Liyun shook his head and said, “It was unexpected. Nobody thought Hai Jingtian would come too, not to mention the large group of people living on the island. If not for the Phoenix Monster’s intervention, it would have been unpredictable.”

Nangong Yan was extremely worried and said, “Godfather, we have to find them both; otherwise, they will be in danger.”

“I’ll figure something out. Don’t be anxious. But we’re too unfamiliar with this place, and it will take some time. After all, this isn’t our turf,” Shao Hengjiang said with much more caution.
