Chapter 1101 - 1101 1087 Perils Abound

Chapter 1101: Chapter 1087: Perils Abound Chapter 1101: Chapter 1087: Perils Abound Luo Rui shook her head and said, “Hey, I bet that monkey isn’t as conflicted as you guys. When he comes back, he’ll definitely bring along a pretty girl.”

“I’m not going to chat with you anymore, I need to change my clothes.” Guo Yuqing stood up and walked into her room.

The sun tilted toward the west, casting a kaleidoscope of colors across the sky.

Once inside her room, Guo Yuqing thought hard about many things, whether she should stop the events from unfolding or not. What if Ye Chen did survive, what then?

But what right did she have to intervene? If Ye Chen was doomed to die, wouldn’t Guo Yuyun miss her chance?

She felt it was better not to get involved. Perhaps that was the best choice. Now, all she could do was wait for Li Mo’s news.

“Hey, can’t you change faster? I’m already done,” her maid Luo Rui called out from outside.

“Almost ready, there’s no rush. It’s not like somebody’s going to eat all the food in an instant, you glutton.” She could have changed quickly, but she was preoccupied with a myriad of thoughts, worrying about whether Yun’er would blame her in the future.

If one day Yun’er found out that Ye Chen was still alive, what would she do? She seriously considered this—others might understand, but her own concealment wasn’t so innocent.

Was it as Luo Rui had said, that she still liked Ye Chen and wanted to be with him?

No, she couldn’t allow that. How could she do such a thing?

How had she become so impure?

“Hey, you still look pretty in what you’ve chosen,” Luo Rui said, casting a glance at Guo Yuqing as she stepped out.

She was dressed in a pink-purple robe, a hue she seldom wore since getting married. Perhaps it wasn’t so garish, just the effect of the setting sun.

“Do I? I don’t think so.”

“Dressed like this, you do look pretty. It’s as if you’ve suddenly returned to your maiden days,” Luo Rui commented.

Guo Yuqing replied, “I am still a maiden.”

Luo Rui laughed and said, “Sure, a maiden who’s been married.”

“You just have to remind me of that to be happy, don’t you?” Guo Yuqing retorted, clearly displeased.

“Oh, there’s something I haven’t told you yet.”

“What is it?”

“I heard that Su Zhanze is coming to the Demon Palace City.”

Guo Yuqing became anxious and said, “I’m not going to see him.”

“No, he’s coming to seek Uncle Lou Xuancheng’s help to discuss how to deal with the Tianye Demon.”

“Really?” Guo Yuqing was skeptical.

“It’s true. We in Demon Palace City have been trying to eradicate the Tianye Demon but to no avail. If we can get help from Immortal City, that would be great. And besides, Su Zhanze has the Dragon Slayer Sword; it would be so much easier then.”

Guo Yuqing felt quite pleased to hear what Luo Rui had to say.

“Right now, both the Heavenly City Sect and the Qingxuan Sect are only looking out for themselves, dreaming of getting their hands on the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual and have no interest in helping us. The Nine Leaves Sect wants to help, but they’re limited in what they can do. If people from Immortal City were to help us, it would make a huge difference.”

Guo Yuqing knew that recently everyone had been anxious because of the Tianye Demon, especially since Ye Chen had escaped.

His escape did not eliminate the danger, however.

Since they were only two people, they didn’t reveal themselves easily, but the danger crept closer step by step.

A scream jolted him and Ouyang Yue awake.

Dawn was just breaking, and that was not the cry of an animal—it was definitely human.

“What’s going on?” Ouyang Yue asked.

Ye Chen had set up several traps in the forest the night before. It seemed the traps hadn’t snared any game, but a person instead. He muttered, “It must have caught someone.”

“You mean the traps?”

“Yes, hurry up, we need to leave quickly.” Ye Chen scrambled to his feet and began to pack his things, then moved forward.

For the past few days, there had been constant alarm and ongoing sounds of fighting coming from behind them, leaving them to wonder what exactly was happening.

The Black Demonic Spirit said, “We are in danger. Since this is Pan Jianglong’s territory, they will definitely send people to Sacred Spirit Mountain in advance, waiting for us there.” This information was gathered from the men they captured from Pan Jianglong.

Ouyang Yue thought there was some merit to this and said, “Right, they must have sent people to Sacred Spirit Mountain to wait for us. They know we’re heading there.”

Ye Chen looked back and asked, “So what do we do?”

“Isn’t that what I should be asking you?” Ouyang Yue responded.

“If Pan Jianglong knows we’re heading there, how can we just walk into a trap?” the Red Demonic Spirit continued to explain, “The sounds of killing have barely stopped from behind.”

Ouyang Yue, puzzled, said, “So are we still going to Sacred Spirit Mountain?”

The Black Demonic Spirit inquired, “Are you still set on revenge?” He was genuinely concerned that she might have lost her resolve, leaving them with no one to restore their bodies to.

“Of course, I must have my revenge, there’s no question about that,” Ouyang Yue said, having gone through immense hardship while Qiandu Xiang failed to kill her. Without the Sacred Spirit Stone, how could she possibly reclaim Sacred Spirit Island?

The Red Demonic Spirit was puzzled and said, “We can’t just go to Sacred Spirit Mountain like this, can we?”

Ouyang Yue looked at Ye Chen and said, “Wait for the people coming up behind us!”

They continued running forward, unsure if anyone was still following them, when suddenly the sound of voices came from ahead.

Ye Chen slowed down and carefully sneaked up.

As soon as Ouyang Yue heard it, she recognized the familiar voice—it was Qiandu Xiang’s voice, wasn’t it?

It turned out that guy had led a group of people and had luckily escaped.

But now there were only about half of them left. Although Hai Jingtian’s arrival had saved them, they later encountered a horde of monsters, many died, and others were scattered. To have five hundred people remaining was already quite fortunate.

Qiandu Ao cursed, “Damn that Pan Jianglong, daring to set fire to our ships and release monsters to bite us! Once I leave this place and return to Sacred Spirit Island, I will definitely bring people to annihilate them.”

“They’re moving even faster than us,” said the Black Demonic Spirit.

Ouyang Yue suddenly became angry again. If she could, she would have rushed up to take revenge, but she knew she couldn’t because she was no match for Qiandu Xiang.

Ye Chen waved his hand to signal the others to retreat with him.

Ye Chen said, “Not good, it’s clear they also know we’re heading to Sacred Spirit Mountain.”

The Black Demonic Spirit sneered and said, “I’ve been saying that, but you didn’t believe me.”

Ye Chen sat down, took a few sips of water, and ate some food. He had intended to make his way to Sacred Spirit Mountain quickly, but obviously, someone must be guarding the entrance to Sacred Spirit Mountain. Qiandu Xiang’s people were also hurrying in that direction.

“We’re not going anymore.”

“What? Not going for the Sacred Spirit Stone?” Ouyang Yue hurriedly took a few sips of water.

The Black Demonic Spirit was also greatly surprised.

“I believe everyone is gathering towards Sacred Spirit Mountain,” said Ye Chen without needing much analysis. “Let them go. After all, the Key Box is in our hands. Let them fight it out.”

Ouyang Yue was thinking about revenge.

“Let’s see how long they can fight.”

Ouyang Yue thought about it and felt there was some sense to it. Sacred Spirit Mountain was very likely to be guarded by Pan Jianglong’s people, and with Qiandu Xiang’s people continuously moving forward, a fight was inevitable.

“Let them play.”

“So we’re stopping now?”

Ye Chen said, “We won’t be faster than them.”

The Red Demonic Spirit said anxiously, “Qiandu Xiang’s ships have all been destroyed. Won’t our return ships be destroyed just the same?”

Ye Chen nodded slightly and said, “Yes, even if you get the Sacred Spirit Stone now, you won’t be able to return to Sacred Spirit Island.”

The Black Demonic Spirit said, “They will certainly find a way to look for us.”

“They won’t expect us not to go to Sacred Spirit Mountain,” Ye Chen murmured.

Ouyang Yue understood what Ye Chen meant and asked, “Are you planning to hide directly?”

Ye Chen said, “It seems we can only do so.”

“Then how many days are we planning to hide?”

“It’s not very clear yet. It depends on how their killing goes.”

Ye Chen stood up, not having too many ideas, but one thing was clear: the closer they got to Sacred Spirit Mountain, the more dangerous it would be. The most important thing was that the Key Box was in their hands. As long as they kept the Key Box safe, it didn’t matter if they got the Sacred Spirit Stone later. Moreover, they had to ensure that once they got the Sacred Spirit Stone, they could escape in time.

Ouyang Yue said, “We should find Nangong Yao and the others first.”

“Alright, we’ll do as you say, but first, I need to prepare a good meal,” said Ye Chen. The trap they had fallen into last night was meant to capture prey, and now he felt uneasy with an empty stomach.

Suddenly, a squeaking noise came from ahead, making them tense up. A group of sinister-looking monsters appeared, at least a few hundred of them, gathering at the mouth of a cave.

Ye Chen remembered that it was these monsters, each weighing over a thousand pounds, that had dispersed them last time. Both of them quickly stopped.

Ye Chen waved his hand, signaling Ouyang Yue to retreat further back, worried they might be discovered. A few hundred monsters pouncing on them was no joking matter.

But suddenly, Ouyang Yue stopped in her tracks.

“Why have you stopped?”

Ouyang Yue hated Qiandu Xiang to the extreme. Not having killed him last time left her unsettled. She said, “Let’s lure them to them.”

Ye Chen glanced at Ouyang Yue and said, “You’re not still thinking about having me kill Qiandu Xiang, are you? I’m really not his match.”

“Hey, I’m not asking you to rush over and kill Qiandu Xiang, just to lure the monsters over,” said Ouyang Yue.

“Alright, everything as you say, but you have to wait for me in the distance,” said Ye Chen.

Ouyang Yue nodded slightly.
