Chapter 1103 - 1103 1089 Cant Keep a Secret

Chapter 1103: Chapter 1089: Can’t Keep a Secret Chapter 1103: Chapter 1089: Can’t Keep a Secret It was pitch-dark.

Ye Chen saw about a dozen people wandering through the woods, and among them was a burly man; he had his sights set on their leader in front.

It wasn’t long before the Black Demonic Spirit returned and said, “It’s confirmed, there’s no one around.”

“Good, grab the two in front, kill the rest,” Ye Chen confirmed the plan, then added, “Make sure to cover your tracks well, I don’t want to bring trouble upon myself.”

Swish, swish, swish…

The lackeys trailing behind were all quickly subdued.

The two guys in front thought they had seen a ghost, and before they could even draw their swords, they were already immobilized.

In a secret cave.

Ye Chen checked behind him to ensure no one had followed before saying to the Black Demonic Spirit and the Red Demonic Spirit, “These two are your responsibility now, you know what to do.”

The Black Demonic Spirit hadn’t punished anyone for many years, and this time he could properly reminisce, saying, “Don’t worry, leave it to me. I’ll make sure to find out even what color underwear Pan Jianglong’s wife is wearing.”

“That’s good to hear,” Ye Chen and Ouyang Yue stayed outside the entrance to the cave.

Ouyang Yue heard the moaning sounds and said, “They should be able to get something out of them, right?”

“I think so; the Red Demonic Spirit did the same to me before. I’ve experienced it firsthand. Rest assured, they can get anything out, and if they don’t know, we can always capture more. There’s plenty of time, so don’t rush things. Have some food instead,” Ye Chen replied.

“That’s good to hear.”

Worried that the noise might be overheard, Ye Chen shouted, “Hey, can’t you gag them?”

Soon there were no more sounds heard.

Ouyang Yue breathed a sigh of relief as the quiet around them grew even deeper, feeling a bit cold.

Ye Chen handed over the water skin.

Ouyang Yue took a couple of sips to steady her nerves.

“It hasn’t been easy for you.”

Looking over, Ouyang Yue said, “Are you talking about me?”

“Yes, for you to have endured so much and still stand strong, you’ve done quite well,” Ye Chen said.

Ouyang Yue fell silent for a moment before responding, “I’m just hanging on because I need to avenge our people. If I were to die, who would seek revenge for us?”

“Ah, I don’t know what to say, but don’t be hasty,” Ye Chen said.

Looking at the fire, Ouyang Yue said, “I’ve also heard a lot about you from Nangong Yan. You’ve had a rough time too.”

“Me, I’m still okay. At least I’m still alive,” Ye Chen replied.

“Right, we’re both still alive, and that’s what’s most important.”

It was very quiet around them, the constant chirping of crickets breaking the silence.

Before long, the Red Demonic Spirit and the Black Demonic Spirit emerged.

Ouyang Yue asked, “What did they say?”

“They spilled everything they knew, of course. How could they not? I’d have to pull out their teeth one by one if they didn’t talk, and if that failed, I would have started pulling out their nails,” the Black Demonic Spirit explained.

Ouyang Yue gasped, “What, that’s too horrific.”

“Don’t worry, I made sure to stop their bleeding so they wouldn’t die. I’m a person of compassion; how could I kill indiscriminately?” the Black Demonic Spirit said.

“I’m glad I didn’t go in there.”

“It might seem a bit scary, but if you don’t use some methods, you’ll get nowhere,” the Black Demonic Spirit continued. “If you’re worried they might have lied, we can capture a few more for corroboration.”

Ye Chen nodded slightly, agreeing with the suggestion, “That’s a good idea. Let’s eat something before we continue.”

Unknowingly, it had reached the middle of the night.

The night passed without incident.

The sound of footsteps approached. Ye Chen heard them and knew for sure that there were footsteps; his martial arts skills were excellent, allowing him to detect the sound from a great distance.

He quickly nudged Ouyang Yue awake, who slowly opened her eyes and inquired, “What’s going on?”

“It seems someone is coming.” As soon as he finished speaking, hunting dog barks could be heard.

“Quickly.”

Both the Red Demonic Spirit and the Black Demonic Spirit awoke as well.

Suddenly, someone behind them yelled, “They’re here.” This was followed by a roar.

The Red Demonic Spirit was startled and asked, “How could they have found us?”

“How would I know? Let’s go,” Ye Chen urged, then instructed, “Get on Yan’er’s back.”

Swish, swish…

The Red Demonic Spirit and the Black Demonic Spirit climbed onto Ouyang Yue’s back. Ye Chen was capable of protecting himself, but Yan’er’s martial arts were not very strong. Without the protection of the Black Demonic Spirit and the Red Demonic Spirit, she might be in danger.

Ouyang Yue, upon seeing the Black Demonic Spirit and Red Demonic Spirit possessing her, was somewhat frightened and said, “They won’t control me, will they?”

“Don’t worry, we won’t mess around,” the Red Demonic Spirit said with a giggly smile.

Suddenly, more than a dozen people and seven or eight monsters sprang out, and one of them said, “That’s right, last night, it was those two who marked me.” It turned out that they had found this place based on the scent of the two people they had captured.

Fortunately, it was discovered in time; had it not been, they might have been surrounded.

Ye Chen pointed ahead and said, “Keep moving forward, I’ll cover our retreat.”

With the protection of the Red and Black Demon and the Black Demonic Spirit, Ye Chen was much calmer.

The seven or eight monsters were released first, surging forward to attack.

Ye Chen unleashed a dozen energy attacks.

Several arcs of electricity killed their way through, some hitting the monsters, some felling the trees, some blasting towards the crowd. Ye Chen wouldn’t let those monsters entangle him; it was clear that there were many attackers, and he had to extricate himself quickly.

The Red Demonic Spirit and Black Demonic Spirit each extended long arms from behind Ouyang Yue’s back, grabbed several trees, and threw them back, toppling a few more people.

A large figure charged forward, clearly the same man who had tried to capture Ouyang Yue last time.

A sword encased in lightning flew at him; a dozen lightning strikes came at once, but Ye Chen, now, was not as he had been before. Last time, he was unable to deal with him because his martial power had greatly diminished,

Already familiar with his opponent’s level, Ye Chen did not fear those dozen lightning strikes, but he also knew that he had to escape quickly. The people blocked by the trees behind would soon rush forward again, and there were many more of them around; their voices had already reached this place.

With a summoning gesture, Ye Chen also launched a dozen lightning strikes that boomed out, countering the incoming lightning.

Silver Fox was shocked to see this; last time, this guy hadn’t been so formidable. But he quickly understood that last time, the young man had been too exhausted, which is why he had the upper hand.

Ye Chen sent out a Light Wave attack, rushing forward with lightning-like speed.

Silver Fox dared not take it lightly, swiftly chopping down with his sword, and managed to break through Ye Chen’s move.

But Ye Chen was hiding a move, waiting for his adversary.

With a leap, he hung in mid-air, let out a loud shout, and launched a punch that turned into a meteor, exploding downward.

Silver Fox countered with another thunderous sword strike, but Ye Chen’s punch was far more destructive than the previous hit.

The sword released dozens of energy waves.

But with a booming sound, Ye Chen’s punch unleashed a vortex that instantly swallowed the energy released by Silver Fox.

Silver Fox was taken aback, staring at the seemingly ordinary punch which he didn’t expect to be so lethal, swallowing his energy in an instant and blasting him away.

If he hadn’t blocked with his sword for a moment, his head would have been smashed like a watermelon.

Ye Chen also hadn’t expected his punch to be so powerful, a skill he had derived from his last duel with Qiandu Xiang. Qiandu Xiang’s moves appeared ordinary, but they concealed intricate secrets, and it was only by studying the Sacred Heavenly Technique and seriously observing Qiandu Xiang’s moves that he had achieved such insight.

Although Qiandu Xiang’s use of the Sacred Heavenly Technique was characterized by softness, there was no denying that it was the Sacred Heavenly Technique, the essence of which was interconnected, differing only in thought and focus.

And Ye Chen had used this similarity to comprehend the truth.

He blasted Silver Fox away, having him land dozens of feet into the forest, where Silver Fox stood dumbfounded.

But Silver Fox refused to concede defeat, scrambled up, and prepared to unleash his ultimate move. Ye Chen wouldn’t give him the chance; while he was still recovering, Ye Chen launched a Gathering of Ten Thousand Spirits, a move of overwhelming righteousness. The energy sprayed out like thousands of troops charging, and a row of trees collapsed creating billows of smoke.

The people inside lost their direction, and Ye Chen quickly caught up with Ouyang Yue.

They soon vanished into the dense forest.

Ouyang Yue was shocked and asked, “How did those people find us?”

“It must be those monsters finding us by the scent of the clothes of the two people they captured,”

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Yue immediately understood, and added, “You seem to know martial arts from the Sacred Heavenly Technique.”

“Heh, it’s just the form; I’m far from the real thing,”

“Have you learned the Sacred Heavenly Technique?”

“Hmm, Shao Hengjiang gave me the Secret Manual for the Sacred Heavenly Technique.”

“What? How could he give you the Secret Manual for the Sacred Heavenly Technique?” Ouyang Yue could hardly believe it; she knew the young man hadn’t known Shao Hengjiang for very long.

“Yeah, maybe he really wants to take me as his son-in-law.”

Ouyang Yue looked skeptical and asked, “Why does Shao Hengjiang treat Nangong Yan so well? She has done so many bad things, yet he still acknowledges her as his goddaughter.” Although she had heard it from Nangong Yan, she still found it incredibly strange, especially since Nangong Yan had once attempted to poison Shao Hengjiang.

Ye Chen chuckled and said, “You’ve also noticed the problem here, haven’t you?”

“I just feel that Shao Hengjiang treats Yan’er very differently, as if a real father treats his own daughter.” She had observed carefully over the past few days and added, “But she really does look a lot like Shao Hengjiang.”

Unable to contain itself, the Black Demonic Spirit blurted out, “That’s because she is his daughter, you know.”

At this revelation, Ouyang Yue was dumbstruck and asked, “What? Nangong Yan is Shao Hengjiang’s daughter? You’re talking nonsense.”

The Black Demonic Spirit couldn’t hold back any longer and immediately told her the truth.

Ye Chen wanted to stop it but couldn’t in time, exclaiming, “Black Demonic Spirit, why must you be so annoying? How come you can’t keep anything to yourself?”

“That’s just who I am. What about it?”
