Chapter 1165: Chapter 1151: Each Harboring Their Own Scheme Chapter 1165: Chapter 1151: Each Harboring Their Own Scheme “Hmm, proceed according to the plan, but be sure to exercise caution. I don’t want any mistakes.” Qiandu Xiang felt that he had been rather unlucky lately; each time he was so close, and this time, he would tolerate nothing but success.
“Rest assured, we’ll take care of the matters concerning Freedom Island. Just relax and take a break,” the local snake said respectfully.
“Hmm, I believe you are capable.” Qiandu Xiang knew where the bottleneck for the local snakes lay, they didn’t have a powerful backer, which was why they hadn’t been able to take down Freedom Island. There were other powers on Freedom Island, each with their own backers, unlike the local snakes, therefore they had always failed to conquer it.
Even so, without being able to become the Island Master of Freedom Island, the local snakes were still the most powerful force there, which is precisely why Qiandu Xiang had chosen to collaborate with them.
The local snake asked with some doubt, “Sect Leader, are you sure the Sacred Spirit Stone is in Nangong Yao’s hands?” He knew that Nangong Yao and Shao Hengjiang had split up, leading to widespread speculation about the whereabouts of the Sacred Spirit Stone.
Qiandu Ao replied after listening, “We’ve gathered information, and you still dare to doubt it?”
The local snake hastily added, “No, I just heard some rumors that the Sacred Spirit Stone is in Shao Hengjiang’s possession.”
Of course, Nangong Yao had deliberately spread this news because he knew Qiandu Xiang was very suspicious. Releasing such a piece of information would only make Qiandu Xiang more convinced the Sacred Spirit Stone was with Nangong Yao.
Hearing this, Qiandu Ao scoffed and said, “Nangong Yao is a sly one; this is false news he’s spread, trying to use Shao Hengjiang to mislead us and then sneakily take the Sacred Spirit Stone back to Sacred Spirit Island.”
The local snake looked at Qiandu Ao indecisively, knowing that by deciding to join forces with Qiandu Xiang’s group, he was also choosing to be an enemy of Immortal Medicine Island and Iron Ten Thousand Island. It was a decision he had to ponder. If there was no chance of victory, they would merely be pawns in someone else’s fight; naturally, he had to consider it seriously.
Qiandu Ao continued, “What you’ve heard are groundless rumors; our information comes from inside sources.”
Upon hearing Qiandu Xiang’s words, the local snake immediately understood and said, “I see, that’s reassuring.”
“We wouldn’t fall for Nangong Yao’s tricks as easily as you might,” he sneered in response.
The local snake quickly said, “After all, given the scale of this operation, it’s good to be cautious.”
To Qiandu Xiang’s surprise, the man actually doubted his judgment. He chuckled coldly and retorted, “Rest assured, my information is never wrong.” He knew all too well what the other man must be thinking.
“Yes, Sect Leader, I will certainly help you get rid of these people.”
“Fine, if anything comes up, discuss it with Hai Jingtian,” Qiandu Xiang said impatiently. If not for the need, he would have preferred not to waste his breath on this matter.
The local snake hurriedly took his men and left.
Suddenly, only Qiandu Xiang’s people were left in the large room.
Qiandu Ao spoke fiercely, “That guy actually doubted our information.”
Qiandu Xiang said coolly, “For him, it is a question of whether we can handle Shao Hengjiang and Nangong Yao. If the Sacred Spirit Stone isn’t in their hands and we’ve made a move in vain, he’ll be completely tied to us and will have to face Shao Hengjiang and my enemies in the future. He fears we are no match for them.
That’s why he seeks some reassurance, which is understandable; who doesn’t want stability? They want to cling to our coattails, yet they risk making enemies of Iron Ten Thousand Island and Immortal Medicine Island.”
Qiandu Ao immediately understood.
Qiandu Xiang added, “At least this means the guy isn’t too foolish; he knows there are pros and cons. But most importantly for us, whether the Sacred Spirit Stone is finally in the hands of Nangong Yao and Ouyang Yue or not, we must eliminate them.”
Qiandu Ao declared, “The Sacred Spirit Stone is definitely in Nangong Yao’s hands. He thinks he can deceive us with such tricks, fortunately, we have our secret sources.”
Hai Jingtian rushed in and announced, “Baili He has landed.”
Qiandu Xiang stood up; this was incredibly good news. With the reinforcements Baili He brought and the local snake’s men, he was confident Nangong Yao would have no chance of escape. Now reassured, he went out to welcome them.
Shao Hengjiang was aware that Qiandu Xiang’s forces had landed on the island, indicating they were ready to take action. This was exactly what they had hoped for, allowing them to proceed with their own plan.
The innkeeper, Cui Shanshi, rushed in to report, “It’s confirmed, Baili He has also landed on the island.”
Nangong Yan was thrilled and exclaimed, “Which means everything is going according to our plan.”
“Indeed, if they had found us out, they definitely wouldn’t have come,” Wan Liyun said, visibly excited at the prospect of seizing a good opportunity.
Soon, the inn where they were staying was pinpointed.
Nangong Yan still worried they might have given themselves away, but it seemed such concerns were unnecessary.
Tomorrow, Nangong Yao and his group would land on the island.
Nangong Yan asked with suspicion, “If that’s the case, how will they deal with us when the time comes?”
From the side, the Black Demonic Spirit said, “They will definitely destroy Nangong Yao’s ships first, trapping them like turtles in a jar, and then kill them one by one.”
Indeed, it was a cunning plan. Nangong Yan said, “Then when the time comes, we will destroy their ships and leave them with no escape either.”
Shao Hengjiang finally received some good news and said, “Alright, there’s nothing more for you to do here, go back and rest.”
Nangong Yan left with the Black Demonic Spirit and the others. After taking the medicine for two days, the Black Demonic Spirit began to doubt its efficacy, complaining, “Your father, can he actually heal and save people, or what? The medicine he gave me is not only bitter and pungent to the nose, but I’ve also taken it for two days with no effect. I feel like I’m turning into a castrated chicken, becoming more and more effeminate.”
“My father did indeed heal and treat people before, but for the past two years, he hasn’t been practicing. At home, he only treats pigs, dogs, cattle, and sheep,” Nangong Yan said with a laugh.
“What, are you joking with me?”
Seeing the Black Demonic Spirit like this, Nangong Yan found it amusing. It had been a happy day already, and hearing that Qiandu Xiang had entered the trap, how could she not be happy? She said, “Even with miraculous elixirs, it’s not possible to see effects so quickly.”
The Black Demonic Spirit was clearly unconvinced, not wanting to waste time. He said, “If your father dares to deceive me…”
“What about it, you’re not thinking of hurting my father, are you?”
“I would advise your father to not play me for a fool.”
“We should never have granted you a body,” Nangong Yan said coldly.
The Black Demonic Spirit ignored her and soon went back to his room with the Red Demonic Spirit. Nangong Yan also returned to her own room, but it was still early, quite a while until dusk. She had been cooped up for a whole two days and couldn’t sit still any longer.
Glancing outside the window, the Black Demonic Spirit said to the Red Demonic Spirit, “I can’t stay put any longer, I need to walk around downstairs.”
Looking over, the Red Demonic Spirit said, “Can’t you just stay one more day?”
“I can’t stay put, not even for a day,” the Black Demonic Spirit continued, “That damn Shao Hengjiang is too rigid, actually locking us up. Only he could do such a thing.”
“It’s just to be on the safe side.”
“Bullshit, I think he is just inhumane. Does he think we are children? We would expose them? I think he is just overly nervous.”
As it turned out, the Red Demonic Spirit felt the same way.
Having finally acquired a body only to be shut in a room was no different than not having a body at all. He had been in such a state for thousands of years, and now that he finally saw a city, he was not allowed to go out. He could not bear it. He began choosing his clothes and said, “Tonight, I must go out for a walk, I cannot listen to that old man. He goes off to see girls without bringing us along.”
“You really want to go out, then?”
“Of course. Now that Qiandu Xiang has been lured in, what else can happen? Don’t you feel incredibly bored?”
How could he not feel bored? Like the Black Demonic Spirit, he too had acquired a body and naturally wanted to get out and about. However, he possessed more patience than the Black Demonic Spirit.
“That Shao Hengjiang is so stubborn, not letting people go out. I’m really fed up with him. Tonight, I must go out and have a good meal. Do you want to join me?”
The Red Demonic Spirit shook his head and said, “It’s just for one night; I can endure it.”
“I can’t endure it. He really thinks all of us are naive children who would expose our identities everywhere. He really treats us as if we’re clueless,” the Black Demonic Spirit retorted.
The Red Demonic Spirit smiled and asked, “You’re not going to visit the brothels, are you?”
Taking some silver with him, the Black Demonic Spirit asked, “Are you really not going out?” He was actually looking for someone to keep him company, but Nangong Yan would definitely be in the way.
“No, you go ahead on your own. Just be careful not to get caught by someone.”
“They really treat us like dimwitted women,” the Black Demonic Spirit said, finding a rope he had prepared earlier. Shaking his head, he added, “This makes it seem like I’m sneaking out to meet someone for an affair; I can’t believe myself.”
“Be careful not to catch any venereal diseases,” the Red Demonic Spirit warned.
“You’re the one who’ll catch that disease,” the Black Demonic Spirit retorted as he climbed down the rope. The window led to the inn’s backyard.
As the Black Demonic Spirit came down to collect the rope, he was already below and said, “Don’t worry, if I find something delicious, I’ll definitely bring some back for you,” and then he headed toward the street.
