Super God Grandmaster
Chapter 1151 - 1151 1137 Surrounded

Chapter 1151: Chapter 1137: Surrounded Chapter 1151: Chapter 1137: Surrounded Qiandu Ao had to make a decision. He asked, “Is that girl, Ouyang Yue, following Shao Hengjiang?”

Hai Jingtian hurriedly said, “No, we can be sure of that. She is with Nangong Yao, and she also has that scruffy kid with her.”

Qiandu Xiang was somewhat worried that Ouyang Yue, carrying the Sacred Spirit Stone, had gone with Shao Hengjiang.

“We must make a decision quickly, whether to pursue Shao Hengjiang or Nangong Yao.” Shao Hengjiang on the other side was about to break through the encirclement.

Qiandu Xiang hesitated, then called out, “Have Baili He, with the ships, keep a close watch on Shao Hengjiang for me.” Although he was more confident that the Sacred Spirit Stone should be in the hands of Nangong Yao or Ouyang Yue, he also wanted to have a backup plan. In case it really ended up in the hands of Shao Hengjiang, he might still have a chance.

Hai Jingtian said, “I will go and inform Baili He.”

“Just tell him to watch closely; after I’ve eliminated Nangong Yao, we’ll see if the Sacred Spirit Stone is really with him.”

Hai Jingtian left, and Qiandu Ao, looking at his brother, said, “Not bad, it’s indeed a clever plan, as long as we don’t let Shao Hengjiang get away.”

Qiandu Xiang could now enjoy the spectacle; he didn’t need to be too anxious. The show was just beginning, and he wanted to enter the fray when the time was almost right. There was no need for him to be too hasty.

“First, kill Nangong Yao and Ouyang Yue; they will never have the chance to seek revenge in their lifetimes.” A couple of days ago, he was still worried about whether to leave Sacred Spirit Island or stay on it.

Gu Feng expressed her worries, “Couldn’t they use the Sacred Spirit Stone against us?”

Upon hearing this, Qiandu Xiang laughed coldly and said, “It wouldn’t be so easy for them to use the Sacred Spirit Stone against us. Indeed, the Sacred Spirit Stone possesses great energy, but that old fool Nangong Yao can’t control it, and even I wouldn’t be able to without spending some time studying it.”

Qiandu Ao agreed, “That’s right, to activate the power of the Sacred Spirit Stone, they would need to draw on the energy of the Big Dipper; it’s no joke. How could Nangong Yao possibly control the power of the Sacred Spirit Stone.”

Gu Feng nodded slightly, feeling that it made a lot of sense. The Sacred Spirit Stone’s power was truly formidable—not something ordinary people could manage; if not careful, one might hurt others and end up harming oneself instead.

Qiandu Xiang figured there was still a fight to be had and said, “Alright, go down and prepare quickly.”

Qiandu Ao was giving orders; he really liked that feeling.

Shao Hengjiang had managed to escape. Guan Xun ran back to inform Nangong Yao, who was quite pleased, at least one of the ships had broken away.

However, their ships were being watched by three others, and the cabin was blasted with several holes. If this continued, the whole ship would fall apart; it couldn’t withstand it.

Ye Chen’s martial arts skills were very high, but he was only one person. No matter how powerful, what use was it when they were about to be trapped to death at this critical juncture?

Now was the moment to find a way to break through; otherwise, they might not get another chance to escape the encirclement.

Everyone was very anxious.

Guan Xun was in a panic. Ouyang Yue ran up and said, “Should we tell them the truth, that the Sacred Spirit Stone is not in our hands?”

Ye Chen smiled and said, “I’m afraid they won’t believe you.”

“So what do we do? We are going to be trapped here and die.”

Of course, Ye Chen saw it; he had fought for over two hours, chopping down more than a dozen Winged Dragons into the sea, but the number of Winged Dragons pressing in on them was too great, not to mention some emerging from underwater, overwhelmingly outnumbering them.

Slashing their way onto the ship.

The distant Silver Fox watched intently, shouting, “If you want to live, hand over the Sacred Spirit Stone quickly, or I’ll leave you with no place for your burial.”

This guy sure talked too much. Ye Chen said, “You must be daydreaming about the Sacred Spirit Stone. Even if I really had it, I would never hand it over to you, not to mention we don’t have it.”

The Silver Fox in front glanced back and said, “You say you don’t have the Sacred Spirit Stone? Brag all you want. We saw with our own eyes that you stole the Sacred Spirit Stone; there’s no denying it.”

Seeing that Shao Hengjiang had escaped for over half an hour, Ye Chen laughed and said, “The Sacred Spirit Stone was taken away by someone on another boat; it’s not in our hands.”

“Do you really take us for fools to think that a few words from you can trick us, believing that Nangong Yao would hand over the Sacred Spirit Stone to that pirate leader?”

“It’s not that I think you’re a fool; rather, you are a fool. Precisely because everyone believes that we wouldn’t hand the Sacred Spirit Stone over to Shao Hengjiang, that’s exactly what we did. Look, that proves we lured you here while they escaped with the Sacred Spirit Stone.”

For a moment, Silver Fox was startled and couldn’t tell if the words were true or false.

“Stop dawdling; if you want the Sacred Spirit Stone, you’d better start chasing. Otherwise, you’ll never get it.” Ye Chen knew that Shao Hengjiang and the others had already fled far, only then did he dare to say so.

“Damn, I thought I was helping you escape danger, but it looks like you don’t need it.”

Ye Chen burst into laughter upon hearing this and said with a provocation, “I think you’re just wasting your time. You won’t get anything.”

The Silver Fox launched an attack with his blade, and a bolt of lightning came at Ye Chen. With a single palm, Ye Chen released an energy blast, blocking the deadly move.

The Silver Fox refused to believe in the supernatural, and even without the Sacred Spirit Stone, he still sought revenge, or else his resentment would not be quelled. However, how could he possibly be a match for Ye Chen? Ye Chen simply did not want to waste too much time playing his game.

What mattered most now was how to escape, and this was the crucial point. Qiandu Xiang could strike at any moment.

Indeed, Qiandu Xiang would never allow the Sacred Spirit Stone to fall into someone else’s hands. He must be watching from somewhere.

And sure enough, as Ye Chen turned his head, he spotted a ship rapidly approaching, almost certainly confirming that Qiandu Xiang was coming.

He hastily summoned a Green Dragon, which blasted the Silver Fox away, and hurried in the direction of Nangong Yao. Finding Nangong Yao with Ouyang Yue, they were trying to find a gap to make their escape.

Approaching them, Ye Chen said, “It’s not good, Qiandu Xiang is coming.”

Ouyang Yue was shocked and said, “It’s really his doing. It seems we were too careless.” She knew all too well that among their own, there were Qiandu Xiang’s people, and having been fooled once, of course, it was sad.

Their arrival meant that escape was impossible, and they were likely going to die here as panic set in.

Ouyang Yue became even more anxious, not expecting them to arrive so quickly, and said, “We should still explain things to the people from the thirty-six islands. If they can’t find the Sacred Spirit Stone, they will let us go.”

Surrendering was not a good option, and Ye Chen shook his head saying, “They’ll just capture you and sell you off.”

“So what do we do now? We can’t escape, and if they come to kill us, how can we run away?” Ouyang Yue was extremely anxious.

Suddenly, a movement caught Ye Chen’s eye; about a hundred yards away, the Phoenix Monster was being defeated by the Evil Spirit and fleeing for its life. An idea struck him, and he said, “I’ve got it, let’s lure the Evil Spirit here.”

Ouyang Yue was stunned and said, “You’ve gone mad. We had a hard time leading the Evil Spirit away with the Phoenix Monster, and if it comes after us, how will we escape?”

“You’re wrong. The Evil Spirit is certainly formidable, but it listens to no one. For a short time, no one can control it, and it won’t be under anyone’s control. So, as far as it’s concerned, enemies are not just us—it will definitely attack all the ships,” Ye Chen insisted confidently.

Ouyang Yue seemed to realize something and asked, “You want it to create chaos?”

“Exactly, to stir up chaos. Think about it—if it attacks, what will the situation be like? It’ll be total chaos, and that increases our chances. Then we’ll have the opportunity to flee. We must take this risk.”

Ouyang Yue was still worried, fearing that the behemoth might destroy their ships. She looked at Nangong Yao and asked, “Uncle-Master, is this really feasible?”

“We’re down to treating a dead horse as alive. Having a plan is better than none at all unless you want to be caught and sold. If they capture us, they will definitely torture us by all means. I’m all too familiar with this,” Ye Chen said seriously, knowing well the desires of the human heart.

Watching Qiandu Xiang’s ship drawing near, only thirty yards away and with hordes of monsters flying towards them, Nangong Yao really had no clue. However, Ye Chen’s words made sense; perhaps if they could harness the chaos caused by the Evil Spirit, they might find a way out. No matter how the Evil Spirit came here, he knew no one could control it.

“Ye Chen, go ahead with your plan. Use the Phoenix Monster to lure the Evil Spirit here,” Nangong Yao said.

The Phoenix Monster was fleeing, wounded but only with skin-level injuries. Ye Chen could beckon it through his will, which would also inadvertently bring the Evil Spirit along.

“Alright, but remember, this was your call. If anything goes wrong, don’t blame me.”

“Done, hurry and lure it here,” Nangong Yao said, resorting to desperate measures, wanting to muddle the water first. Only when chaos ensued would they have a chance to find an opportunity.

“Hold on, wait until Qiandu Xiang’s ship gets closer, then cast the spell,” Ouyang Yue pushed Ye Chen.

Ye Chen smiled, noticing the girl was eager for revenge.

Nangong Yao instructed, “Guan Xun, prepare dense smoke. Remember, the thicker, the better. It must be dense.”

“Understood,” Guan Xun responded, taking a dozen men and retreating to make the preparations.

Nangong Yao pondered who the mole could be and what to do about it. Keeping such a menace by their side, even if they were lucky to escape this time, there might be a next time. No telling when it would end. He looked at Ouyang Yue and asked, “Ouyang Yue, how’s the investigation into the mole going, the one you had Jiu Hu check on?” He was convinced the mole was among them.

Ouyang Yue shook her head; finding the mole would not be easy.

“Sigh, let’s not worry about it for now. Let’s focus on surviving,” Ye Chen said as he prepared to cast the spell.
