Chapter 1170 - 1170 1156 Short Winter Melon

Chapter 1170: Chapter 1156: Short Winter Melon Chapter 1170: Chapter 1156: Short Winter Melon Nangong Yan asked Ouyang Yue, “Did you really become sworn siblings with him?” She seemed rather envious.

Seeing Nangong Yan so anxious made Ouyang Yue feel amused. She stood up and walked towards another teahouse area, leaving Nangong Yao and Wan Liyun, Shao Hengjiang behind as they still had details to discuss.

“I’m talking to you,” Nangong Yan nudged Ouyang Yue.

“Hey, we just became sworn siblings, not lovers. What’s there for you to be so anxious about?” Ouyang Yue brewed herself a strong cup of tea; after all that greasy food, she needed a strong tea.

This was a suite of connected rooms, and there were other rooms within. Ye Chen had gone to another room to change clothes.

“Could it be that you’ve taken a liking to him as well?”

“Not at all. After my master’s death, and with Si Nanyu gone too, I felt utterly alone and wanted someone to rely on. What’s wrong with recognizing a brother who’s good at martial arts? In the future, it’s only natural for him to help me, and I won’t feel like I owe him anything.”

Carrying a look of suspicion, Nangong Yan eyed Ouyang Yue.

Seeing her so tense only made Ouyang Yue find her even cuter. She said, “Now that we’ve become siblings, there’s no chance of us being lovers, why would you be afraid?”

“I know very well that many lovers start off as ‘good brother’ and ‘good sister,’ and gradually become romantic partners.”

Hearing this, Ouyang Yue laughed, her tone so similar to that of a monkey’s. She said, “I’m not that kind of person.”

“Who knows,” Nangong Yan retorted, drinking her tea with evident wariness. “Why the sudden idea to recognize a brother?”

“Hey, I really wanted to find a helper. You should be happy. If we are sworn siblings, then we can’t develop into lovers, which is good for you. Who knows, maybe I could use this relationship to help you out someday.”

Nangong Yan looked over, thinking to herself that leveraging this relationship could indeed be beneficial. She mumbled, “How did he agree to this?”

Ouyang Yue said, “How could he not agree? The Sacred Spirit Stone belongs to our Sacred Spirit Sect. He needs the Sacred Spirit Stone’s help and is alone in the world. Having a sworn sister gives him a home on Sacred Spirit Island.”

“Did you plan this from the start?”

“I felt we got along fairly well, but more importantly, I wanted you to know that I have no romantic intentions towards him,” Ouyang Yue explained.

Nangong Yan remained half-convinced.

“You see, as soon as I recognized a brother, you thought so much of it.”

“Nonsense, how have I thought too much?”

Ye Chen changed into his clothes and came out from the other room, dressed up like a waiter.

He looked the part too.

Nangong Yao and Shao Hengjiang had also reached an agreement.

Ye Chen followed them, passing through a secret passageway that led them straight out, avoiding the main door and escaping any eyes.

Ye Chen met with Black Demonic Spirit and Red Demonic Spirit.

Black Demonic Spirit was somewhat surprised and said, “So many people surrounded you, yet you came back without a scratch. Impressive.”

“It’s nothing much. Hasn’t your voice changed back yet?”

The words hit him like needles. He had been planning to chat with Nangong Yao about whether he had been prescribed the wrong medicine, as he hadn’t seen Nangong Yao emerge and said, “I was just looking for Nangong Yao. That bastard hasn’t shown up. Did he lose his mind and give me the wrong medicine? I’ve been drinking it for three days, and my voice still hasn’t returned to normal.”

Nangong Yan got anxious and said, “Who are you calling bastard?” Cursing her dad was no different from cursing her.

Black Demonic Spirit quickly said, “No, I wasn’t cursing your dad. I just slipped up.”

“Do you still want to change back to normal?”

Now was not the time to provoke her. He hastily admitted his mistake, “Sorry, I was wrong.” If he didn’t back down now, he might have to live with a feminine voice forever. What would his pride amount to then? At this moment, he needed her and had no choice but to concede.

This appeased Nangong Yan.

Black Demonic Spirit then asked, “Right, why didn’t Nangong Yao come out with you?”

“If he came out, who would be the bait?”

Black Demonic Spirit was stunned. Indeed, if everyone left, who would act as the bait?

“You haven’t been running around causing trouble these days, have you?” Ye Chen inquired.

“The way you say it, it’s as though it’s coming from my wife,” came the reply.

“I’m just worried about you stirring up trouble.”

Shao Hengjiang returned, and Wan Liyun arrived as well.

Qiandu Xiang, whom they had been watching, had indeed begun to move, cautiously advancing towards Qingfeng Inn. Despite their caution, they had been spotted.

Unaware, dusk had fallen.

The streets were still very lively but carried a sense of quietness, the calm before the storm.

Shao Hengjiang divided them into three groups: one led by Ye Chen, another by Wan Liyun, and the last by himself.

Nangong Yan said, “I want to follow Ye Chen.”

“Why follow me? Better to stay with your father. I can’t protect you. I have to protect my sister,” he replied as he glanced at Ouyang Yue.

He was clearly trying to provoke her.

As expected, Nangong Yan was irked.

Black Demonic Spirit was astounded and asked, “Sister, when did you get a sister?”

“Just recognized her a couple of days ago. What about it?”

Black Demonic Spirit looked at Ouyang Yue once more, still finding it hard to believe. He commented, “It would be better if you got married.”

Nangong Yan grew even more anxious.

“That’s the situation. After they have infiltrated, they will wait for my command. When I say to move, you move,” Shao Hengjiang was speaking.

Ye Chen became a bit more serious and said, “Black Demonic Spirit and Red Demonic Spirit, you two come help Senior Shao.”

It was obvious that the spot guarded by Shao Hengjiang was more important and more difficult. The martial arts skills of the Black Demonic Spirit and the Red Demonic Spirit were very rare. With the help of these two, he felt more at ease.

Li Mo followed behind Ye Chen.

As Ye Chen went ahead, Ouyang Yue nudged Nangong Yan and said, “Aren’t you going to follow?”

“Didn’t he ask you to go?”

“He was joking with you, and you still don’t realize it? Hurry up and go. I’ll just follow your dad and the rest.”

Although it was dark, the streets were no different from during the day, and were even busier.

Ye Chen brought only a few people with him. The others had already quietly gone ahead, disguised as street vendors, passersby, travelers, and so on.

It had taken them several days to prepare for this.

If too many went at once, they would certainly be detected.

The one who came with him was Nangong Yan, not Ouyang Yue, which surprised Ye Chen. He said, “Why did you come? I have to tell you, I might not be able to protect you. If you really end up with a scarred face, don’t blame me.”

“Can you stop cursing me?” Nangong Yan was anxious.

“Just take care of yourself. Qiandu Xiang, that chubby brother, seems to be a big lecher. Don’t let him catch you, otherwise, no one will want you when you come back.”

When they arrived at the designated spot, Shao Hengjiang’s pre-arranged person met Ye Chen.

Ye Chen asked one of his subordinates, “How’s the situation?”

The subordinate replied, “Baili He has gone in.”

“There haven’t been any abnormalities found, have there?”

“Not for the time being.”

Nangong Yan said, “Once the signal goes up, focus on Qiandu Xiang. We must kill that guy.”

Black Demonic Spirit and Red Demonic Spirit followed Shao Hengjiang to the designated place.

However, they still didn’t know when they would take action. Black Demonic Spirit, feeling hungry, said, “I need to eat something first.”

“At this time, you’re still thinking about eating,” Ouyang Yue said with some disdain.

“We don’t even know when we’ll start yet. I need to be full to have the strength,” Black Demonic Spirit said, already standing up.

Ouyang Yue called out, “Red Demonic Spirit, go with him.” It seemed she was afraid he might get lost.

Red Demonic Spirit also felt hungry and stood up, saying, “What do you want to eat? I’ll bring it back for you.”

Ouyang Yue was in no mood to eat. It was a good opportunity for revenge tonight. She said, “I’ll eat after I’ve had my revenge.”

“How about this, if I see something delicious, I’ll bring it back for you,” Red Demonic Spirit said, following Black Demonic Spirit forward.

Entering the crowded streets, the number of people increased again after dinner.

“Come on, I have to say, you can really stay in a room for three days,” Black Demonic Spirit muttered.

It was all part of training. In the past, when he didn’t have a body and left Ye Chen, he basically hid in a room.

“What’s there, I haven’t seen it.”

Black Demonic Spirit smirked and said, “That’s because Ye Chen took you out, it’s not the same as when you go out on your own.”

“There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.”

“Meat Sandwich Buns and Grilled Sesame Seed Cake, not bad.”

“Alright, I’m not fussy about anything.”

“When we leave the thirty-six islands, are we going to part ways?”

“We have been together for over a thousand years, aren’t you tired of it yet?” Red Demonic Spirit said disdainfully.

“True, these days, couples get aesthetic fatigue after just a year or two, but we’ve been together for over a thousand years.”

“Glad you know.”

Black Demonic Spirit seemed very familiar with the area, not really looking where he was going, and kept introducing to Red Demonic Spirit.

Red Demonic Spirit said coldly, “Hurry up and buy the food, the important business comes first.”

A group of people came surging forward and with a bang, ran into Red Demonic Spirit. The leader was a short man covered in pockmarks.

The guy was too short, and Red Demonic Spirit was only looking forward, so he didn’t see him.

The pockmarked short man cursed, “Who’s so blind.”

Black Demonic Spirit was about to respond but immediately covered his face with a hand.

Red Demonic Spirit, unfazed, stepped aside and muttered an apology.

Only then did the pockmarked short man stop making a fuss, glanced at the person beside him, and seemed to have something important to do, as he hurried on forward.

Red Demonic Spirit was somewhat surprised. On normal days, Black Demonic Spirit would have already cursed out loud, and laughed, “Why didn’t you say a word?”

Black Demonic Spirit continued forward and said, “That’s the pockmarked shorty I annoyed last night.”

Watching the group continue on, Red Demonic Spirit said, “Are you sure, that’s the local gang’s people?” That pockmarked shorty seemed to be up to something.
