Chapter 1135 - 1135 1121 Nonsensical Babble

Chapter 1135: Chapter 1121: Nonsensical Babble Chapter 1135: Chapter 1121: Nonsensical Babble The sun had just come out.

Nangong Yan became excited, seemingly forgetting the events from moments before, her one virtue being her quickness to forget.

The Black Demonic Spirit said, “Don’t be so jumpy, if you like to hop around, hand over the Sacred Spirit Stone before you do.” He truly worried that the other might take off with the stone.

Nangong Yan snorted through her nose and glanced behind her. The mountain behind had flattened out quite a bit, certainly not as dangerous now.

Sunlight filtered through, dispelling the mist in the forest.

Ye Chen took a deep breath and said, “We still have to hurry down the mountain, they might enter the cave to look for us again.”

Suddenly, Nangong Yan grew serious. She still didn’t know whether her father was alive and was naturally concerned. She had even had a nightmare last night and it now flashed through her mind.

Ye Chen handed her the water bag, and she gulped down two mouthfuls.

Ye Chen called out, “I’ll go first.”

“It’s fine, the mountain path isn’t that steep anymore, I can manage it,” Nangong Yan advanced with a mixture of trepidation and resolve.

The sunlight was blocked by the mountain behind them.

They quickened their pace, continuing toward the foot of the mountain.

By noon, they had only reached the middle of the mountainside. From up ahead came some voices; Ye Chen quickly sent the Red Demonic Spirit to scout ahead, knowing that in this mountain there was another group, Silver Fox.

It wasn’t long before the Red Demonic Spirit returned and said, “It’s them.”

Nangong Yan asked anxiously, “What about my father?”

The Red Demonic Spirit said, “With two fathers, who knows which one you’re asking about.”

These words startled Nangong Yan, her anxiety giving away to urgency, and without further ado, she dashed ahead.

Ye Chen followed closely behind her, heading towards the woods.

Ouyang Yue was startled to see Nangong Yan; their subordinates had searched the cave for half a day, nearly losing hope. Seeing her now, they were unspeakably joyful and exclaimed, “Am I seeing things?”

Nangong Yan directly asked, “Where are my two fathers?”

Ouyang Yue replied, “Don’t worry, they’re both alive.”

Only then did Nangong Yan notice the injury on Ouyang Yue’s arm and asked with concern, “Does it hurt?”

“I’m fine. How did you get out? We’ve been looking for you for so long, we almost gave up,” said Ouyang Yue honestly.

Nangong Yan answered, “We were blocked at a cave entrance, stuck on the other side of a cliff. We climbed across.”

Shao Hengjiang and Nangong Yao caught sight of Nangong Yan. Overwhelmed with emotion, Nangong Yan rushed over, at a loss for words. She knew that of the hundred who went in, very few had likely survived.

When Ouyang Yue saw Ye Chen approaching, she said, “Are you alright?” He had summoned the power of the ring the previous day, which had startled her a bit, and she was genuinely worried for his safety.

“I’m fine, what about you? You’re hurt on the arm!”

“Just a scratch, it’s not serious, it will heal quickly,” Ouyang Yue said. “We searched all morning and didn’t find a trace of you, we really thought you had been buried alive.”

“I’m not someone who gets buried alive so easily,” Ye Chen replied.

“I’m glad you made it, I’m happy for you,” Ouyang Yue followed up, “Right, where is the Sacred Spirit Stone?”

“Yan’er has it.”

“That’s excellent,” Ouyang Yue replied and led Ye Chen to meet Shao Hengjiang and Nangong Yao.

Shao Hengjiang expressed his gratitude, which made Ye Chen somewhat embarrassed.

Seizing the topic, Nangong Yao said, “Ye Chen, we must leave Xiyue Island immediately. Some Island Masters already know about the Sacred Spirit Stone and are on their way here. We’ll board a ship first, then find a way to help you destroy the ring.”

Ye Chen understood what Nangong Yao meant. Destroying the ring would require the combined effort of several people and some time; it wasn’t something to be rushed. He said, “I’ll follow the elder’s advice.”

Nangong Yao didn’t want history to repeat itself from a hundred years ago.

Seeing his daughter unharmed, Shao Hengjiang was, of course, extremely relieved.

They hastened their departure from Sacred Spirit Mountain.

Ouyang Yue commented, “I wonder if Qiandu Xiang managed to escape from the cliff cave.”

Upon hearing this, Nangong Yan said, “They have already escaped, I saw them. They descended from the cliffs on the northern side using a rope. There were two boats waiting for them down below.”

“What, you mean they went down the cliffs on the north side!”

“Yes, we were on the north side cliffs last night. I saw them. They used the ropes to go down. Two boats were there, waiting for them.”

Ouyang Yue had been searching all morning, thinking she could find traces of them and extinguish them with the Sacred Spirit Stone.

Knowing that Ouyang Yue was anxious, Nangong Yan said, “Don’t be so anxious, now that the Sacred Spirit Stone is in our hands, as long as we shake off the people from the Thirty-six Islands, we can avenge your deceased, Qiandu Xiang won’t stand a chance against us.”

Ouyang Yue thought it made sense; now that the Sacred Spirit Stone was in their hands, they could certainly return to Sacred Spirit Island. Even if Qiandu Xiang wasn’t dead, he definitely wouldn’t be their match, and they would surely defeat them on Sacred Spirit Island.

“You weren’t hurt by the falling rocks yesterday, were you?” asked Ouyang Yue with concern.

Nangong Yan responded, “How could I have been hurt by them?”

“I saw you faint in Ye Chen’s arms; I thought you were injured,” Ouyang Yue still remembered the situation distinctly.

About that, Nangong Yan didn’t have much memory and said, “He was holding me?”

“Of course, otherwise you would have been buried alive by now. Thankfully you ran fast. Stones kept falling relentlessly at that time, and dozens of our people died. If I hadn’t been hiding far away, I might have been buried alive too.” The thought made her shudder in fear.

Nangong Yan nodded slightly.

“Did anything interesting happen last night?”

“What could have happened? After chatting, we went to sleep. They talked about what to do next if we got through this,” Nangong Yan said.

“What did that monkey say, did he talk about destroying the ring and going back to his beloved?”

“He didn’t mention that, he didn’t talk much all night, the most he talked about were the Red Demonic Spirit and the Black Demonic Spirit,” she replied.

“I bet you’re really disappointed,” Ouyang Yue could almost picture it, even with her eyes closed.

“Why would I be disappointed?” Nangong Yan’s response lacked conviction.

“Ah, you’ll find someone better someday.”

The large group moved on.

Indeed, Nangong Yan hadn’t expected so much to have happened recently. It seemed she had found someone promising, but he had someone else, which was a bit of a letdown, although she didn’t show it.

Ouyang Yue grabbed Yan’er’s arm.

“Don’t injure your other arm.”

“Don’t worry, I’ve got it protected,” Ouyang Yue knew the other was disheartened but wasn’t sure what else to say to comfort her, so she simply offered, “Tonight, I’ll drink with you.”

“Drink? What fun is that?”

“I’m your good sister, and I’ll always be here for you, to find someone even better than him.” That was all she knew to say.

A sigh broke the silence.

It startled Ouyang Yue, for the sigh turned out to be from the Black Demonic Spirit hiding within Nangong Yan. Nangong Yan had almost forgotten about it and was also taken aback.

The Black Demonic Spirit said, “What is love in this world that prompts people to pledge their lives for each other?”

Hearing this, Nangong Yan exclaimed, “Can’t you just go to sleep and stop bothering me?”

“Can’t help it, now that I know your secret. Do you want my help?”

“Your help? What could you possibly do for me?” Nangong Yan retorted with a snort.

“Help you confess, create opportunities, or if all else fails, turn uncooked rice into a cooked meal,” said the Black Demonic Spirit.

Ouyang Yue added, “Turning uncooked rice into a cooked meal is worth considering; it’s the quickest way. I think the monkey, being kind-hearted, would surely take responsibility for a child, should there be one.”

Nangong Yan burst out indignantly, “This is madness, and now you join in mocking me too?”

“Who says I’m spouting nonsense? I’ve thought this through before speaking. It’s the most practical solution. He won’t be able to deny it when the time comes,” the Black Demonic Spirit argued.

Yet Ouyang Yue countered, “That’s easier said than done. Do you really think the monkey would let you manipulate him, to let you cook the uncooked rice with Yan’er?”

Nangong Yan glared at Ouyang Yue and exclaimed, “You’ve gone crazy too, how can you entertain the Black Demonic Spirit’s absurd ideas?”

The Black Demonic Spirit chuckled and said, “I’m not spouting nonsense. If there’s a real chance, didn’t you hear what Ye Chen said last night? If we get a body, he’d drink with us until we’re plastered. I could help, get him drunk directly, and then you can have your way with him the whole night, and cook the rice however you wish.”

Ouyang Yue was stunned, while Nangong Yan’s cheeks flushed red.

The Black Demonic Spirit continued, “Only I can help you out here, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss it, it’s gone forever. That young man will definitely go back to his girl, and if you don’t seize this chance, there won’t be another.”

Ouyang Yue considered, “It could be worth a thought.”

“You’re really insane,” Nangong Yan protested; how could she possibly do such a thing?

“Everything is fake, what matters most is what’s in your heart. If you can’t let go, can’t forget him, don’t want him to leave, you could really consider it. If you cook uncooked rice into a cooked meal, knowing the monkey as I do, he won’t abandon you,” the Black Demonic Spirit advised.
