Chapter 1150 - 1150 1136 Lure Away

Chapter 1150: Chapter 1136: Lure Away Chapter 1150: Chapter 1136: Lure Away Shao Hengjiang knew those people were mainly coming for the Sacred Spirit Stone. He said to Nangong Yao, “Senior brother, you should find a way to leave first. I’ll cover our retreat.” The Sacred Spirit Stone was in Nangong Yao’s hands, and he knew it would be very difficult for both ships to leave together. However, if one could leave first, it might be possible.

Shao Hengjiang continued, “We can’t both break free together. If one ship can escape, that would be good enough. You should hurry and leave. Wan Liyun shook them off yesterday, and he will be waiting for you up ahead. You, Nangong Yan, and Ouyang Yue should all board my ship.”

After listening, Nangong Yao disagreed with Shao Hengjiang’s suggestion. He knew that the people would definitely be aware that he possessed the Sacred Spirit Stone and would most likely be keeping a close watch on him; he was their primary target. He suddenly pulled Shao Hengjiang over and called out, “Ye Chen, you come here too.”

Ye Chen followed him over.

Nangong Yao took out the Sacred Spirit Stone and handed it to Shao Hengjiang.

Shao Hengjiang was slightly surprised; such an important item, and Nangong Yao was actually entrusting it to him, without fear that he might claim it for himself. It seemed that Nangong Yao trusted him a great deal.

Nangong Yao said, “If everything has been planned by Qiandu Xiang, and our movements have been exposed, then they must know the Sacred Spirit Stone is in my hands. They will surely come after me for it. In that case, I will lead them away.”

Nangong Yan, who had just walked in, heard this and exclaimed, “Father, have you lost your mind? This is extremely dangerous; you can’t do this.”

But Nangong Yao knew there was no time to delay and said, “Please take Yan’er and Ouyang Yue and leave. They will definitely come after me, and that’s when you’ll have the chance to break away from them.”

“No, father, you absolutely can’t do this,” she protested. “She cannot leave her father to be captured by those people. If Qiandu Xiang gets hold of you, he will certainly kill you outright.”

However, Nangong Yao insisted, “It won’t be so easy for him to kill me.” He stuffed the Sacred Spirit Stone into Shao Hengjiang’s hands.

Shao Hengjiang hadn’t expected the other man to place such firm trust in him.

Ye Chen, on the other hand, thought Nangong Yao’s plan was feasible but also very dangerous. Even if he managed to shake off the people from the thirty-six islands, being captured by Qiandu Xiang would spell certain death. They might already be waiting for them. Seeing the worried Nangong Yan, Ye Chen offered, “In that case, I’ll stay.”

Nangong Yan looked at him, almost in disbelief, “You’re going to stay behind?”

“Yes,” he affirmed. “Your father’s plan, although risky, is indeed a workable solution. There are people from Ouyang Yue on this ship, as well as those arranged by Qiandu Xiang. They know the Sacred Spirit Stone is with your father, which means they will definitely keep a tight watch on him.”

Ye Chen continued, “Don’t worry, my life is the guarantee. I will make sure your father is safe. You should leave now.”

Nangong Yan shook her head; she didn’t want her father to be in danger, nor did she want to risk Ye Chen’s safety, but time was running out.

Nangong Yao said, “Don’t worry. I will figure out a way. If I’m captured by the people from the thirty-six islands, I can let them search me. Without the Sacred Spirit Stone, they won’t have any reason to harm me; it won’t be dangerous.” Turning to Shao Hengjiang, he added, “I entrust the two girls to you.”

Nangong Yao knew he had to stay behind, or else no one would believe him. He was the only one who had to remain, but Ye Chen chose to stay with him, which moved him somewhat.

Ye Chen smiled, “Don’t worry, my ring hasn’t been destroyed yet.”

Shao Hengjiang objected, “No, you cannot continue to use the magic power of the ring recklessly. Nowadays, you already find it hard to free yourself from magic power. If you continue like this, it will be even more difficult for you to get rid of it.”

Nangong Yan also started to worry and said, “That’s right, I will stay behind too.”

Yet she was really a mad girl. How could Nangong Yao allow it? He couldn’t even guarantee what would happen next, insisting, “No, you must leave. I can’t allow you to stay.”

Shao Hengjiang agreed, “That’s right, Yan’er, you cannot stay.”

Then Ouyang Yue walked in and said, “But I must stay behind. If I don’t, it will surely raise suspicions. Qiandu Xiang has planted his people around me. If I leave alone, they will definitely become suspicious.”

Her reasoning held some weight, and Ye Chen could only nod in agreement, “Let’s find a way to break free first.” At this moment, they didn’t have many options. If they all remained trapped here, it would not do. If a group could leave first, perhaps they could think of another plan.

Boom boom…

The sound of explosions grew closer and closer. Ye Chen said, “That’s close enough now.” He stepped outside and glanced at the Red Demonic Spirit and the Black Demonic Spirit, directing, “You two follow Shao Hengjiang and the others.”

Nangong Yao knew it was dangerous but felt Ouyang Yue was correct. On this ship, aside from him, there were also Ouyang Yue’s people. If Ouyang Yue boarded a different ship, it would very likely raise suspicions. They could suspect that Ouyang Yue had taken the Sacred Spirit Stone onto Shao Hengjiang’s ship, which would definitely be unfavorable, he directed, “Ouyang Yue, you must stay close to me.”

Nangong Yan found it hard to let go, knowing that everyone would soon be focusing on their ship.

Ye Chen was aware of the danger, but there was no other way.

Nangong Yan looked at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen said to Nangong Yan, “You all need to get to safety first before you can think of a way to help us. Don’t worry, the Wolf King’s Ring is in my hand. Although I can’t summon magic power, I can use the energy from the ring. With this energy, it is feasible to deal with them. Rest assured, I will protect your father.” He had the Black Demonic Spirit and Red Demonic Spirit accompany Shao Hengjiang onto Shao Hengjiang’s ship.

They split up to act. Shao Hengjiang’s ship quickly headed southwest, and the ship led by Nangong Yao went northwest, forming a ninety-degree separation.

Thankfully, there was the Phoenix Monster. Although the Phoenix wasn’t as powerful as the Evil Spirit, it could hold it off for a while. The Evil Spirit would definitely need some time to break free, and right now, what they needed most was time.

The people from the thirty-six islands surged in for the kill.

Ye Chen spotted on Xiyue Island the Silver Fox that he had fought several battles with; it was that guy, who was also here and had set his sights on them. Charging over, he was clearly ready to fight and kill.

Nangong Yao told Ouyang Yue to go below deck first, as the Winged Dragon was flying chaotically in the sky, which was extremely dangerous.

Ye Chen climbed to the top of the ship, dealing with the Winged Dragons that were descending and some monsters that had climbed aboard. These were not so easy to handle, but he must hold them back.

This was just the beginning.

Shao Hengjiang released the Three-Headed Monster, which attacked the incoming ships. He hoped to break through while the others were unaware and concentrated on dealing with the ships, taking the opportunity to escape.

Nangong Yan noticed that more and more monsters were attacking the other ship and as expected, their target was the Sacred Spirit Stone in her father’s hand. She began to worry, but the ships were already getting farther apart.

Shao Hengjiang was about to charge forward and said to the Black Demonic Spirit and Red Demonic Spirit, “Both of you, protect Yan’er.”

The Black Demonic Spirit probably guessed that Ye Chen and the others had lured most of the enemy away, obviously creating an opportunity for their own escape. He muttered, “This monkey really is betting his life.” He was somewhat touched; that monkey truly was a brother, facing danger himself.

Shao Hengjiang planned to find a way out while all attention was on Ye Chen’s ship, to take the chance to break free, then find a way to help them. If they all got trapped here, it was likely none would escape. Indeed, everything had been arranged by Qiandu Xiang, and soon, with the enemies closing in, it would be even more dangerous.

Someone found Qiandu Xiang soon enough.

The person who came was Hai Jingtian, who said, “They’ve started fighting, but the Phoenix Monster has engaged the Evil Spirit, which will take a while to get free.”

“They’re surrounded, right?” Qiandu Xiang knew there were several ships.

Hai Jingtian replied, “Shao Hengjiang has released the Three-Headed Monster and then formed an angle with Nangong Yao. Shao Hengjiang is leading a ship southwest, while Nangong Yao is breaking northwest with a group of people.”

“What, they’re splitting up?” This was somewhat unexpected for Qiandu Xiang.

“Yes, but I think that the people from the thirty-six islands will have a hard time trapping them. At most, they can only inflict some damage. These people have their own ulterior motives and want the Sacred Spirit Stone, so they definitely won’t work together.”

Gu Feng murmured, “If they split up, then we should follow Nangong Yao. The Sacred Spirit Stone must be in his hands.”

Hearing this, Qiandu Ao was also surprised and said, “Right, we should follow Nangong Yao. The Sacred Spirit Stone in Nangong Yao’s possession is the most important.”

But Gu Feng countered, “Is it not possible that the Sacred Spirit Stone is in Shao Hengjiang’s hands?”

Qiandu Xiang felt hesitant after hearing this; he indeed had his doubts about whether Nangong Yao would give the Sacred Spirit Stone to Shao Hengjiang.

Hai Jingtian said, “The people from the thirty-six islands also suspect that the Sacred Spirit Stone is in Nangong Yao’s hands, and they’re all watching him.”

After hearing this, Qiandu Xiang was uncertain. Qiandu Ao stated, “Nangong Yao would hand over the Sacred Spirit Stone to Shao Hengjiang? He wouldn’t be afraid that Shao Hengjiang would hog it all? I don’t believe it either.”

Hai Jingtian added, “It looks like they have no intention of involving Shao Hengjiang. Their target is all on Nangong Yao.”

“Brother, I don’t believe for one second that Nangong Yao would give the Sacred Spirit Stone to Shao Hengjiang,” said Gu Feng emphatically.
