Chapter 1240 - 1240 1226 Longhun is Still Alive

Chapter 1240: Chapter 1226: Longhun is Still Alive Chapter 1240: Chapter 1226: Longhun is Still Alive Ye Chen grew worried. Ever since she analyzed that Longhun must have been captured by Su Zhanze, she had not considered the possibility that Longhun might actually escape.

Yang Tao’er also grew anxious and said, “The fact that Longhun is still alive is probably not known to many in the Immortal and Demon Realms; won’t he seek revenge on the people of these realms?”

Guo Yuqing was also concerned, adding, “Based on what he has done, he will sooner or later seek revenge. It’s just that after the great battle, their numbers have dwindled. Now, to seek revenge will not be so easy. Considering what he has done to Su Zhanze, Su will definitely not let it go.”

Just by thinking about Fang Ziren and Ren Xiongbei’s fate, one could tell that Su Zhanze would not let him go.

“Do you really believe that Su Zhanze will definitely take revenge?”

Guo Yuqing replied, “Yes, he definitely will. I might not have believed it before, but now I can be 100% sure.”

Yang Tao’er poured a cup of tea for Guo Yuqing and said, “Shi Xueqin is reluctant to mention Longhun, but I still managed to get some information out of her. She’s quite conflicted as well, but you know, when a girl falls in love with a boy, her IQ unconsciously drops to zero. That’s what happened to her. She said if she were even a step later, Longhun might have been killed.” She glanced at Shi Xueqin walking in the distance.

“I can understand, especially since she is carrying Longhun’s child.”

“Should we let this news spread, so that when Longhun comes out, everyone is prepared?”

Guo Yuqing analyzed, “Su Zhanze will keep a close eye on Longhun. Unless Longhun has sufficient power, he won’t show himself easily.”

“That makes sense, but why are you so sure that Su Zhanze wants to kill Longhun?”

“Because the other two who had harmed Su Zhanze have met with no good end. Having caused such harm to Su, he will not let Longhun off.”

“Who are the other two people you’re talking about?”

“Fang Ziren and Ren Xiongbei.”

Curious, Yang Tao’er wanted to know exactly what had happened, so Guo Yuqing told her everything she knew.

Yang Tao’er was taken aback and asked, “Have you gotten back together with Su Zhanze?”

“No. It’s impossible for us now. Su Zhanze has long since stopped being the Su Zhanze of yesterday. Before, he was immature; now, he is full of hatred and plots.”

“How did you come to know all this?”

“I learned it from a friend. If she hadn’t heard it with her own ears, I wouldn’t even know if all this was true.” Guo Yuqing took a sip of tea.

Yang Tao’er never would have guessed that Su Zhanze was behind those deeds.

“He has completely changed into someone I no longer recognize,” Qing’er said.

“How could it happen that Yun’er found out that Ye Chen was still alive just by chance?”

“It’s very likely that Su Zhanze told her,” Qing’er suggested.

“What? Su Zhanze told her?”

“It’s just a guess. The night before Yun’er’s wedding, Su Zhanze came looking for me, attempting to reconcile. I had already learned about his misdeeds and rejected him. He must have misunderstood and thought I wanted to be with Ye Chen, so he told Yun’er about Ye Chen.”

“How did he know that Ye Chen was still alive?”

“News of Ye Chen still being alive was bound to get out. A great incident occurred at the Thirty-Six Islands, and it might take longer for others to find out, but Su Zhanze, ever since he destroyed the Tianye Demon, has risen to prominence in the Immortal City Sect. What’s most important is that Su Zhanze has connections with a group of people from the Dragon Slaying Clan! It’s very possible that they know the news from the Thirty-Six Islands, and as a great Sect Leader, such news won’t be kept from him for long.”

Guo Yuqing continued, “Anyway, during our quarrel, I only then found out that Su Zhanze knew Ye Chen was alive. He might think it was because I wanted to be with Ye Chen that I rejected him. But talking about it is meaningless. Su Zhanze and I are over, no matter whether he told Yun’er or if Yun’er found out because she came looking for me and accidentally discovered Li Mo’s love token. It’s no longer important.”

However, she had reason to suspect, because that very night, after Yun’er had talked to Su Zhanze, she left in a hurry, followed by the quarrel that ensued.

Shaking her head, Yang Tao’er commented, “It seems that Su Zhanze is a man of very narrow mind.”

“Let’s not talk about him anymore. That’s just how it’s going to be.”

“I can understand how you feel.”

Yang Tao’er couldn’t guarantee whether Ye Chen could be saved, but during this period, she and her godfather had indeed been researching the Wolf King’s Ring and had made some progress.

Worried, Yang Tao’er said, “According to what you’ve said, if the news about Ye Chen leaks, the people of the Immortal and Demon Realms could soon become aware, then wouldn’t that be very dangerous for Ye Chen?”

“That’s a concern, but you can’t expect to keep it a secret forever,” Qing’er said helplessly.

“Everything will have to wait until my father returns.”

“Yes, we’ll have to wait.”

“If you hadn’t come over, I would still be unaware of all this, let alone suspect Su Zhanze to be such a person. I had thought he wasn’t too bad, having made some contributions to the Immortal and Demon Realms lately. I was even considering speaking in his favor to help you reconcile, but it seems I was oblivious to the reality.”

Qing’er sighed and said, “Whatever he’s done, it was all for himself.”

“Hmm.”

“I never imagined he would become so dark. He’s become even more narrow-minded than before.”

“It’s just that it’s been a disaster for you.”

“I,” Guo Yuqing sipped her tea and smiled, “I don’t think I’m that miserable.”

“I never saw it before.”

“Before I was very mature, now it’s completely different, he has changed into a completely different person, I really don’t want to talk about him.”

“What are you two talking about, is it Longhun causing trouble again?” The speaker was Shi Xueqin who walked over. She felt deeply conflicted, saving Longhun was for the sake of the child in her womb, but she also knew she might be releasing a demon. In the end, she was still foolish. If Longhun really did do something evil, she would still feel guilty.”

Qing’er quickly responded with a smile, saying, “No, are you doing well here? You must be very careful.”

“Hmm, don’t worry, they are taking good care of me.” After rescuing Longhun, Shi Xueqin came to this place and had been living a relatively peaceful and carefree life, without having to worry about other matters.

“I’ll send a few more people to take care of you.”

“No need, with Tao’er taking care of me, that’s enough. Even if something happens, we still have Divine Doctor Zhu here.”

“But we can’t let anything happen.” Qing’er urged Shi Xueqin to sit down quickly.

Qing’er had arrived last night, and Shi Xueqin heard some things and said with concern, “Don’t be so anxious about Yun’er’s matter, maybe Song Xizhi has found her.”

Qing’er nodded slightly and said, “Hmm, maybe.”

“As for Ye Chen’s matter, we can think of a solution together, slowly. He’s such a good person, I believe the heavens won’t treat him that way.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Yang Tao’er stood up.

Dusk had fallen. Yang Tao’er said, “I’ll go prepare dinner.”

“I’ll help you.” Guo Yuqing prepared to stand up.

Yang Tao’er replied, “No need, just chat with Miss Xueqin. Three dishes and a soup, I can get it ready quickly.”

That left Qing’er and Shi Xueqin alone.

Shi Xueqin still expressed some disbelief and said, “Are you sure it’s not about news of Longhun?” She was still eager to know about Longhun’s matters, even though she wanted to forget him, it was not that easy.

“No, if Tao’er hadn’t told me he was still alive, I wouldn’t have known to this day.”

“Did I do something wrong?” Shi Xueqin asked with a hint of self-reproach.

Qing’er chuckled, “Don’t think like that.”

“Is Ye Chen’s situation very serious?” Shi Xueqin asked, concerned.

“It is a bit grim, no one would have expected those things to happen.”

“That’s true, if it weren’t serious, why would you have come here?”

“I will take you to Demon Palace City.”

“Me, go to your Demon Palace City, how could that possibly be?”

Qing’er quickly explained, “I promised Ye Chen I would take care of you well. If you hadn’t left secretly, I definitely would have taken you to Demon Palace City already.”

So that was it. Likely because Ye Chen knew of her relationship with Longhun, notwithstanding that Ye Chen and Longhun fought each other fiercely, there was one thing that couldn’t be changed: when her child was born, he would have to call Ye Chen ‘Uncle.’ It was probably for this reason that he especially instructed them to take care of her.

“It’s fine, I am quite comfortable here.”

“But you can’t possibly carry on living here forever with a child.”

“Well, let’s wait until the child is born to decide.”

“Alright, but you can’t run off secretly like last time. What would I do if something really happened to you, how could I face Ye Chen?”

While Shi Xueqin was here, in her moments of boredom, she would also listen to Yang Tao’er talk about matters concerning Ye Chen, including what happened in Bell and Drum City, especially about Guo Yuqing.

“Don’t worry about being alone and helpless here. In the future, consider me your sister. If anything happens, come to me.”

“Hmm.”

“The matters of Immortal City, Demon Domain, and Dragon Slaying Clan are not for us to worry about. Don’t overthink it.”

Shi Xueqin nodded slightly.

Unknowingly, night fell, and all Qing’er could do was wait anxiously. But the news that Longhun was still alive had to be conveyed to the people of Demon Palace City; they needed to be mentally prepared in case something really happened, to prevent them from being caught off guard.
