Chapter 1208: Chapter 1194: Hopefully it Ends Soon Chapter 1208: Chapter 1194: Hopefully it Ends Soon “It’s just two Grilled Sesame Seed Cakes, I never asked her to do that; she talks as if I owed her something,” Ye Chen said indifferently.

“She only wanted to be nice to you, and yet you speak like this. Don’t you have a shred of gratitude in your heart?” Ouyang Yue stood up for Nangong Yan.

Ye Chen replied, “I told her not to treat me so well, but she wouldn’t listen. What can I do? I wish she would find someone new right away, but she insists on clinging to me.”

Ouyang Yue said, “Hey, who talks like that? When someone treats you well, you have so many complaints. Others would kill for that.”

“Is that so? Then give it to someone else.” It was precisely because she was too good to him that Ye Chen didn’t like it.

Nangong Yan became serious and said, “Don’t worry, once you get rid of the Magic Power, I definitely won’t bother you anymore.”

Ye Chen looked at her and said, “You’re saying this yourself, and Ouyang Yue heard it too. When the time comes, don’t say you never said these words.”

Ouyang Yue was really fed up with him and said, “Do you have treasure on you? Ungrateful and still complaining about being pestered. In the future, you’ll be waiting for loneliness and solitude.”

Nangong Yan was eating Grilled Sesame Seed Cakes. How could she not understand what Ye Chen was saying? She knew he was making it crystal clear because he was afraid of owing her.

“What were you two talking about just now?” Nangong Yan asked.

Ouyang Yue replied, “I told him that if the girl from Central Plains gets married, they can just get a divorce when he returns.”

“What, are you crazy?”

“If they love each other that much and must be together, this is the only way.”

“You’re really joking. There’s nothing else to talk about, bringing up such topics.”

Ouyang Yue ate a Grilled Sesame Seed Cake and took another, seeming to feel they needed some space to talk, and said, “Alright, you two have a good chat. I have some things to take care of.”

“Are you leaving? There are still a lot of Grilled Sesame Seed Cakes.”

“I’ll just take two.” Ouyang Yue turned to Ye Chen and said, “By the way, we’re docking tomorrow morning. Everyone needs to discuss how we’re going to land on the island, so you need to come on time.”

Ye Chen didn’t reply, and Ouyang Yue left quickly.

It quieted down, with only the sound of the waves remaining.

“What’s the matter, are you really still thinking about it?” Nangong Yan couldn’t help asking, trying to make conversation.

“No, I stopped thinking a long time ago.”

“You heard what Li Mo said, Guo Yuqing will try her best to delay them. What else are you worried about?”

“I’m really not worried.” Ye Chen seemed reluctant to discuss the topic further and returned to watching the sea like a poet.

“First, we need to defeat Qiandu Xiang, then I can focus all my attention on you afterward.”

Ye Chen knew his fate was in the hands of destiny and laughed, “No worries. Whatever happens in the future, I’ll accept it calmly.” He glanced in the bag, which contained not just Grilled Sesame Seed Cakes, but other snacks too.

Qiandu Xiang kept absorbing demonic and evil energies to control the Moon Beast within him; he needed strong magic and evil energies, or else he wouldn’t succeed.

Moreover, he knew he was facing the owner of the Sacred Spirit Stone and the Wolf King’s Ring; he had to reach incredible heights to avenge his brother, or he might not succeed.

Of course, he understood that this might cost him his life, but if he didn’t do this, there was no way he could defeat Nangong Yao and his group. Everything he owned would be lost in the blink of an eye.

At that point, he would have no option but death, so he had to continue absorbing the magic and evil energies. Only then could he possibly succeed. He pinned all his hopes on the Moon Beast.

Soon he came out from the room.

Baili He and Hai Jingtian had been waiting for him for quite some time.

“How are things, have they arrived yet?” Qiandu Xiang asked first.

Hai Jingtian replied, “Not yet, they will arrive tomorrow.”

“Good, I’m ready. I was just afraid they wouldn’t come.”

Baili He said, “So at that time, should we let them land directly on the island, without interception?”

Qiandu Xiang was very clear that intercepting them would be impossible. To defeat Nangong Yao, they had to engage in direct confrontation. “We’re already short on manpower, no need to intercept.”

“Without interception, destroying one or two of their ships wouldn’t be too bad, right?”

Qiandu Xiang sneered, “Even if you destroy one or two of their ships, it’s useless. Moreover, it won’t be easy. In the end, it’s about whether we can defeat them. Since that’s the case, let’s wait for them to attack.”

Baili He and Hai Jingtian nodded in agreement.

Qiandu Xiang asked, “These past two days, do those guys still doubt our ability to deal with Nangong Yao?”

“Since the last analysis, they haven’t had as many complaints,” Hai Jingtian replied.

“Good, but we can’t be complacent. Those people are not reliable. Whether we can defeat Nangong Yao still depends on the success of our plan. If necessary, making an example of one to warn others is also fine.”

“Understood.”

“Those are all fair-weather friends, smarter than anyone.”

“So when the time comes, how should we utilize the people from the thirty-six islands?”

Qiandu Xiang chuckled and said, “These guys have become clever too. They all want to be the opportunistic yellow sparrows, so they definitely won’t be in a hurry to make a move. They’ll surely wait until we have worn each other down, and only when they see the chance will they take action.”

“That’s also true, they’re not dumb now.”

“Let them come ashore, over here we still have the protection of the city siege and systems, and we can wear them down a bit, which is beneficial for us.”

“Mhm, that’s right.”

“How many ships are coming?”

“Seven or eight,” Hai Jingtian replied.

“Heh, it looks like they’re not planning to leave.”

Qiandu Xiang wiped his sweat and added, “Whether we can be successful doesn’t depend on the number of people. It depends on whether we can drive that little runt into magic-induced insanity.”

Baili He said, “That kid can’t bear the power of the Moon Beast, he’s certain to fall into magic-induced insanity.”

Qiandu Xiang made an analysis and hoped it would be as Baili He said, “As long as that kid really goes into magic-induced insanity, then the people from the thirty-six islands will swarm over and will unwittingly assist us. By then, it’ll be clear at a glance who has more people.”

Baili He kept on nodding and said, “That’s right, I’ve learned that many people from the thirty-six islands have come ashore.”

“When the time comes, both of you must keep a close watch to ensure the Sacred Spirit Stone does not end up in someone else’s hands.”

Baili He added, “And the Wolf King’s Ring he has in his possession.”

“Exactly, if we can manage to seize the Wolf King’s Ring, don’t let the opportunity slip by.”

Qiandu Xiang then asked, “Have the locals made any preparations?” He couldn’t fully trust the locals.

“They’ve secretly prepared a couple of boats,” Hai Jingtian answered.

Baili He said, “They’re not also planning to snatch the Sacred Spirit Stone and then flee, are they?”

Qiandu Xiang fell silent for a moment and then said, “That’s possible, but I’d rather believe that he wants to leave a way out for himself.”

Baili He, somewhat puzzled, asked, “A way out?”

“Yes, he doesn’t want to put all his bets on us. If we really fail, they would still be able to run away. This guy isn’t stupid. If I were the local boss, I’d do the same.”

Baili He suddenly realized and said, “People like that shouldn’t have been let into our ranks.”

“No, it’s normal for him to have such thoughts. Who wouldn’t want to leave a way out for themselves, to stay back and die with us if we really fail? Right now, we need them. As long as we can show them through action that we truly have a chance to defeat Nangong Yao and the others, the local boss would be willing to stay on our side.”

“They’re still an unreliable bunch.”

“We’ve known them for a mere few days. They saved us once already. What else do you want? Be content. Expecting them to be as reckless as us is unrealistic right now.” Qiandu Xiang called out, “Enough with the prattle. You all know the plan. Since they’ve come, let’s proceed as agreed. We should remain unmoved and let them make the first move.”

Finally, daylight broke.

Ye Chen looked at the table, where the Silver Needle hadn’t been put away yet. He had completed his acupuncture therapy.

The method Yang Tao’er taught him was quite effective. Although he still harbored a slight fear of the Silver Needle that would pierce him, he had grown accustomed to it. After finishing the acupuncture, his magic power stabilized a lot, and he tucked the Silver Needle bag back into his bosom.

He was unsure whether he could land on the island today, but he hoped to settle this affair as soon as possible.

After washing his face, he was ready to go for breakfast. Remembering Ouyang Yue’s instructions from yesterday, he still had to meet Nangong Yao; however, he had to fill his stomach first, never knowing when the fight would start.

The outline of an island was faintly visible ahead, which should be Sacred Spirit Island. Although he had been there once, he had forgotten what Sacred Spirit Island roughly looked like; all the islands here seemed to be identical.

Not many people were in the hall yet, so he ordered a serving of Dumplings.

Ouyang Yue’s voice approached soon after, sounding as if she feared no one had heard it, chattering and bustling. Ye Chen knew that she was the most excited, dreaming of killing Qiandu Xiang.

Sure enough, Ouyang Yue arrived with Nangong Yan, and upon seeing Ye Chen eating, she seemed a bit surprised and said, “What a rarity, how come you’re up so early?”

“Trying to provoke me again, huh! If you really upset me, I won’t participate.” He seemed especially afraid of that topic, almost as if he wanted to forget it completely.

Ouyang Yue, hearing this, laughed heartily and also ordered two servings of Dumplings.

“That’s Sacred Spirit Island up ahead, right?” Ye Chen asked anyway.

“Haven’t you been there once before?” Nangong Yan countered.

“I have, but I didn’t remember it,” Ye Chen continued eating his Dumplings.

“We’re not going to attack that quickly. We still need to make careful plans for how to deal with them. We absolutely can’t let Qiandu Xiang escape.”

“I’m more worried that they won’t let you guys escape,” Ye Chen said coldly.

“Such defeatist talk.”
