Super God Grandmaster
Chapter 1145 - 1145 1131 Tangled

Chapter 1145: Chapter 1131: Tangled Chapter 1145: Chapter 1131: Tangled Ye Chen also spoke with emotion, “You know, I really kind of hate to let go. Whenever I had a headache and didn’t know what to do, I could always come to you, and you’d give me some advice. It’s been very helpful. But now, things won’t be the same anymore. From now on, when something happens, I’ll have to make decisions on my own, and if I’m wrong, there won’t be anyone to correct me.”

The Red Demonic Spirit said, “Hey, if there’s something bothering you, you can still come to me for advice. If I can offer suggestions, I definitely will.”

“You’ve got your own life to live now. Just don’t forget about me when you’re promoted and make your fortune, that’s all.”

“Even if I get promoted and make my fortune, I won’t have as much luck as you do. I’m still counting on your help.”

Nangong Yan laughed and said, “Why do I get the feeling that it’s like a father and son about to part, unwilling to say goodbye?”

Ye Chen looked at Nangong Yan and, after a serious thought, said, “You know, you are really on to something, we do resemble a father and son pair.”

The Black Demonic Spirit walked in with a sour expression. Seeing the group of folks laughing and joking was more than he could bear, but he was truly hungry and needed to eat. Otherwise, no one would bring him food. His worried face showed that Shao Hengjiang had mentioned last night about giving him some traditional medicine that might restore his voice, though he wasn’t sure if it was true or false.

“Hey, come over here, your food is all ready,” Nangong Yan called out. At this moment, she just wanted to cling to the Black Demonic Spirit, who really wanted to help her from the bottom of his heart. She guessed the Red Demonic Spirit, being on best terms with Guo Yuyun, might not sincerely help her.

The Red Demonic Spirit stopped laughing and said, “Don’t be so gloomy all the time. After all, you’ve acquired a body. Though your voice hasn’t returned yet, the Island Master has promised to help you restore it. It’s just a matter of time.”

“I know you’re feeling smug; don’t get too carried away,” said a voice that was indeed feminine.

“You can’t blame me for this, right? I was the guinea pig, and you picked the second candidate yourself. You can’t hate me for it.”

The Black Demonic Spirit snapped back, “If I don’t hate you, then who am I supposed to hate!”

“Hey, don’t be so petty, you’re not supposed to be like this,” the Red Demonic Spirit remarked.

The Black Demonic Spirit currently hated the Red Demonic Spirit the most for making him the butt of the joke.

Nangong Yan pushed the food towards the Black Demonic Spirit and said, “Don’t worry, my father meant every word. He will definitely find a way to restore your voice. If you keep sulking like this, you’ll soon get wrinkles, and wrinkles do not look good.”

Only then did the Black Demonic Spirit shift his attention away. He was very angry now, and everyone else’s laughter seemed directed at him.

“That being said, the two of you are both quite handsome,” Nangong Yan complimented them.

“You don’t need to tell me that. Don’t I know whether I’m handsome?” the Black Demonic Spirit retorted.

“Just the voice is too effeminate,” the Red Demonic Spirit said with a chuckle.

“You, how did you not end up turning into something indistinguishable from a beast?” the Black Demonic Spirit retorted.

“Hey, we’re all civilized people here, and everyone is having a meal. Could you not act like a resentful woman, please? No matter how you put it, you have both regained your bodies and should feel content. Could you, before today, sit in front of everyone and feast like you’re doing now?”

It was true that the Red Demonic Spirit used to have to sneak around corners to eat his food. He didn’t have to look around in trepidation anymore. The Red Demonic Spirit asked, “Monkey, when are you going to cast the spell?”

“My father said he could cast the spell tonight,” Nangong Yan replied.

“Didn’t your father relapse from an old injury last night?”

“He’s feeling much better, especially after Ye Chen attended to him last night. He’ll be able to recover today.”

The Black Demonic Spirit sneered and said, “Be careful you don’t end up like me, it would be terrible if you really couldn’t tell man from beast.”

Nangong Yan, however, did not like hearing such words from the Black Demonic Spirit. Although she meant to close the gap between them, she would never wish any harm upon Ye Chen. “Don’t talk nonsense. Just eat your food.”

“I am serious. There was such an incident once, and no one warned me. Now I just want to become mute,” the Black Demonic Spirit complained.

Ouyang Yue said with a laugh, “If you could really become mute for a while, that would be quite pleasant for everyone.”

Upon hearing this, the Black Demonic Spirit glared at Ouyang Yue.

Twilight finally arrived, bringing another beautiful and dazzling sunset, just like the night before.

Ye Chen gazed at the distant ocean, lost in thought. When someone approached, his reverie was interrupted. He turned around to find Nangong Yan coming toward him.

“What are you thinking about?” she asked.

Ye Chen shook his head.

It was the same as always, but it was precisely that inexplicable, unique allure, as if it could seize one’s heart, that gripped Nangong Yan’s heart tightly.

“Are you worried that when you go back to see Guo Yuyun, you’ll miss out on her the way you missed out on her sister?”

Ye Chen turned to her and smiled gently, saying, “I actually hadn’t thought of that.”

Nangong Yan stood next to Ye Chen, both facing the setting sun. The glow of the evening sky cast their faces in shades of red as she laughed, “You’re just worried about upsetting me, aren’t you?”

“You silly girl, what muddled thoughts are you harboring now?”

Nangong Yan suddenly sighed and said, “It’s a pity we couldn’t have met earlier.”

“Is it very late now?”

“Of course it’s late. You’ve already made your decision, isn’t that late enough?” Nangong Yan continued, “You don’t need to worry. After the ritual tonight, we can help you send a message back by carrier pigeon, telling Guo Yuyun directly. I believe she won’t be getting married so soon.”

Ye Chen heard this and laughed, finding he couldn’t quite gauge this girl. He said, “You’re willing to help me contact people from the Central Plains?” He hardly dared to believe it.

Nangong Yan said, “Even if I don’t help you contact people from the Central Plains, you would come up with a solution. I’m very clear about that.”

“You don’t wish for Guo Yuyun to get married so that I miss this opportunity, and that would be good for you, right?”

Nangong Yan snorted through her nose and said, “Yes, I hoped for that, wished for it, but just because I wish it, does that make it so? I still hope that you can be happy.”

“You hope that I’m happy.”

“Of course, although I know that we are destined not to be together, I still hope you can be happy.”

“That is indeed rare.”

“Although I really hope you miss out to give myself a chance, I also know that it would be immoral. I prefer to let things take their natural course,” said Nangong Yan, sounding deflated.

“It is indeed rare, almost unbelievable,” Ye Chen said.

How long they had been standing there, chatting, they didn’t realize until it had grown dark without their notice.

Ouyang Yue climbed up and shouted, “Hey, are you going to destroy the ring or not? Everyone is waiting for you down below.”

Ye Chen turned his head and said, “Alright, I’ll come down.”

“Let’s go.” Nangong Yan pushed Ye Chen, and he followed her.

When they returned to the main cabin, everyone was already assembled. Ye Chen walked in and saw Shao Hengjiang among them.

Shao Hengjiang asked, “Where is the ring?”

Ye Chen tore off the ring that he was wearing around his neck and handed it over to Shao Hengjiang, who took it and passed it to Nangong Yao. Nangong Yao placed the ring in the center and said, “All right, those not participating in the ritual should go outside.”

Ouyang Yue took Nangong Yan outside with her.

The door of the great cabin was then closed.

Nangong Yan was still somewhat nervous; she didn’t know why she felt this way. It was possibly because it concerned Ye Chen that she grew involuntarily anxious.

Ouyang Yue noticed it too and, staying close to Nangong Yan, said, “Girl, I don’t even know what to say anymore, but I understand your heart.”

Upon hearing this, Nangong Yan simply smiled and said, “Then don’t say anything.”

“The girl who used to fear neither heaven nor earth, I never thought, would one day be like this.”

“Yes, I can hardly believe it myself. When I was younger, I used to say I would never get so worked up over someone, but that’s only because I hadn’t met them. Once you meet them, it’s a different story,” Nangong Yan said.

Ouyang Yue patted her head and said, “It looks like our girl is finally growing up.”

The Black Demonic Spirit came carrying roasted chickens; they were just outside the door of the main cabin.

The Black Demonic Spirit glanced at the sidekick and said, “Hurry up and move the tables and chairs from next door out here, set them up in the corridor.” He intended to set up because Ye Chen’s ritual would definitely take a considerable amount of time.

The table was moved out quickly.

“Hey, don’t just stand there gawking, the monkey’s ritual will take a long time. Are we going to stare at the sea like idiots? It’s no use being anxious.” Two roasted chickens were placed on the table, and the Black Demonic Spirit, sitting like a boss in a chair, tilted back so that only two legs of the chair touched the ground and he kept rocking it.

Ouyang Yue moved a chair over for Nangong Yan, knowing she hadn’t eaten much that evening, and tore off a chicken leg for her.

Nangong Yan set aside the chicken leg, lacking any appetite. After last night’s unforeseen mishap with the Black Demonic Spirit’s ritual, she was concerned whether there would also be unexpected events tonight, but she hoped that nothing would go wrong.

Ouyang Yue had someone bring over a pot of tea.

After a day’s time, the Black Demonic Spirit gradually came to terms with the reality. He had secured the prescription, and as soon as they reached shore, he would gather the herbs. By then, he would no longer carry on in his affected manner. If he couldn’t succeed, he would find a way for Nangong Yao to perform the ritual on him again. He believed there was always a solution, especially since the Sacred Spirit Stone was still in their possession.

“Hey, I must say, enjoying roasted chicken while basking in the sea breeze is a kind of pleasure too.”

Nangong Yan sat down and put aside the chicken leg.

A stream of energy descended from the sky and entered the cabin, much like the previous night. They had all grown accustomed to it. Success or failure hinged on this gamble. Although Ye Chen’s expression was calm, his heart was more anxious than anyone else’s.
