Chapter 1247 - 1247 1233 Secret Passage

Chapter 1247: Chapter 1233: Secret Passage Chapter 1247: Chapter 1233: Secret Passage The assistant smiled faintly and said, “Then what else does the leader have to worry about?”

“It’s probably because of Qiandu Xiang’s incident that I’ve been bitten by a snake once, and afraid of the well rope for ten years,” Baili He said.

The assistant smiled faintly again and responded, “Qiandu Xiang was too proud, that’s why such an incident happened. Moreover, when we said that the local snake might have a bad idea, he wouldn’t listen. He was so certain he could succeed, his confidence was excessive.”

“He simply didn’t anticipate that his fusion with the Moon Beast wasn’t as perfect as he imagined. If I had a bit more time, the fusion between him and the Moon Beast would’ve been flawless. He was just unlucky, perhaps it was fate. I also didn’t expect that the lad could come up with another approach, sealing his acupoints with acupuncture and suppressing the Magic Power amidst his chaotic meridians. In fact, Qiandu Xiang was just one step away from success.”

“However, what is despicable is that the local snake harbored selfish motives at that moment and actually wanted to monopolize the Sacred Spirit Stone.”

Baili He sneered and said, “It’s all the same, let’s not talk about him. If it were me, I might have done the same thing.”

“It’s just playing right into the local snake’s hands.”

“I don’t see it that way.”

“Why do you say that?”

Baili He explained, “Although he had acquired the Sacred Spirit Stone, he couldn’t use it right away. Whether he could hide it and spend time to study it remains uncertain. So many people are looking for him, and what is often a good thing may turn into a bad thing. This is not like us getting the Moon Beast—no one else wants it because they can’t control it, but if I catch the Moon Beast, no one will compete with me for it.”

“Exactly, your analysis is too accurate, absolutely correct.”

“They underestimate the power of the Moon Beast. It is much more formidable than they imagined. Just didn’t give me enough time, or else I could have made Qiandu Xiang much stronger.”

The assistant, having heard this, also felt a surge of confidence.

“Don’t worry, if the Moon Beast is in my hands and I have enough time, I can make it unleash a power that is absolutely beyond imagination. It’s not as simple as Qiandu Xiang and the Moon Beast merging,”

“Of course.”

“Alright, let’s follow the plan. Whether we can turn the tide depends on this time.”

They disappeared into the dense forest.

Guo Yuyun heard what Ouyang Yue said, “As you say, if we let the Moon Beast escape this time, it will be very difficult to capture it again.”

Ouyang Yue answered, “Of course. During the battle with Qiandu Xiang, if it hadn’t been for Ye Chen possessing the strength of the Wolf King’s Ring to control the Sacred Spirit Stone, it would have been very hard to defeat Qiandu Xiang and the Moon Beast. It’s precisely because the Sacred Spirit Stone has the power of Pangu creating the world from chaos that Qiandu Xiang was defeated and the Moon Beast seriously injured.

If the Moon Beast recovers, and we don’t have the Sacred Spirit Stone, and Ye Chen dares not use the Magic Power of the Wolf King’s Ring, we’ll hardly be a match for the Moon Beast.”

Guo Yuyun kept nodding her head, reminding of the Sea Demon and the Demon God—how many had died or were wounded in order to slay those two monsters, how the Red Demonic Spirit nearly perished, and how her father could not escape destiny. She then asked, “What about the Evil Spirit?”

“The Evil Spirit is still at sea, where it has gone remains unknown. Once we retrieve the Sacred Spirit Stone, we still have to find a way to capture the Evil Spirit. Such a monster, left at sea, will kill who knows how many people.”

“Right, it must be dealt with. Such harmful beings must not be allowed to remain.”

They entered the dense forest, but reaching that cave would still take four hours. Unable to contain her curiosity, Guo Yuyun continued to inquire, “Isn’t the Moon Beast difficult to control? How did Qiandu Xiang finally control the Moon Beast?”

“He didn’t control it; he fused with the Moon Beast, becoming one. Man is beast, and beast is man. They control each other, somewhat like Ye Chen. Basically, they control each other, but the Moon Beast would protect him. Just like when Ye Chen was about to be killed by Qiandu Xiang using the Ninety-nine Returns to One System’s energy, Magic Power helped Ye Chen because killing Ye Chen would also kill the Magic Power within him. It’s the same principle.

However, Qiandu Xiang’s fusion with the Moon Beast, after all, was just over a month and not perfect.”

“Your sects actually have people who practice fusion with beasts?”

“It was not one of our sect members who researched this but a guy named Baili He; Qiandu Xiang brought him in. At that time, my master didn’t agree, but that guy promised to reform and stop dealing with such wicked practices. With Qiandu Xiang’s assurance, my master agreed to let him join. Otherwise, how could we possibly let such a person into our sect?

It’s just that we never expected that a leopard can’t change its spots. We were wishfully hoping things would change, but how could it be possible for such people? We never imagined that he would end up helping Qiandu Xiang with the beast-human fusion. If we had anticipated this earlier, we would have been more cautious. None of this would have happened—Ye Chen nearly falling into devilment and the killing of Nangong Yan.” Ouyang Yue shook her head, becoming sorrowful.

“I heard that Nangong Yan’s real father is Shao Hengjiang, and he even forced Ye Chen to marry Nangong Yan.”

Ouyang Yue smiled and looked over, “You know about that, too? It must have been that indiscreet Black Demonic Spirit telling you.”

Guo Yuyun laughed.

“Yes, it’s true, both of them were unaware and were just taken to the bridal chamber.”

“Did they really consummate the marriage?”

“The Black Demonic Spirit surely said that they consummated, right?”

Guo Yuyun smiled.

“Right, Ye Chen did stay in a room with Yan’er for several days, and if it had been with Black Demonic Spirit, surely something would have happened, but the one with Yan’er at that time was Ye Chen, how could he possibly do such a thing, you should have some confidence in him.”

Guo Yuyun sighed, “Having confidence is one thing, but in the end…” She did not finish her sentence.

Ouyang Yue looked at the silly girl with a faint smile. She seemed to have fallen into contemplation again.

Suddenly, Ouyang Yue said softly, “Ye Chen cried last night too.”

Guo Yuyun looked over, incredulous.

“Really, I’m not lying to you.” She didn’t know why, but she just wanted to tell her that.

“Why tell me this?”

“I don’t know, but I just wanted you to know.”

“And what can I do with that knowledge?”

Ouyang Yue was at a loss for words and said, “Yun’er, you don’t have to mind him; you can stay longer.”

“But I’ve already told you, I will leave in a couple of days.” How could she bear to leave so quickly if not for Ye Chen pressuring her?

“You can simply deny it.”

Guo Yuyun suddenly became a bit confused. This girl should be very repulsed by her, since her relationship with Ye Chen was such; why would she want her to stay longer? It became more and more incomprehensible. Wasn’t she afraid?

Guo Yuyun let her thoughts run wild and asked, “You don’t want me to leave?”

Ouyang Yue looked over, aware of the other’s confusion, and said with a smile, “That’s your own business.”

“You aren’t afraid I’ll affect the relationship between you two?”

Ouyang Yue also felt conflicted about being involved and caught between two people; it was very uncomfortable. She said, “I’m not afraid.”

Could it be that this girl doesn’t love Ye Chen? Everyone has at least some selfishness, some desire to possess, but she couldn’t feel it. Could it be that she was just born this way! Guo Yuyun thought.

“I think you should have a good talk with Ye Chen again.”

Guo Yuyun couldn’t remember exactly what she had said the night before, but she must have said a lot; it counted as a conversation, “We talked last night, and it seems there was nothing much to talk about.” She sounded somewhat deflated.

Probably she had lost hope, and that’s why she felt this way. Ouyang Yue was again at a loss for words. Even though she hadn’t spent a long time with her, she had seen two people who dearly loved each other.

To part and break up this way seemed such a pity, but she didn’t know what else she could do. Her only hope was that they would sit down and have a good talk, not to make a regrettable decision on impulse, which was why she made the suggestion.

“You must like Ye Chen, right?” Guo Yuyun asked curiously.

Ouyang Yue hesitated for a moment and said softly, “Not as intensely as you two.”

“We are a thing of the past, and in the future, it will be you by his side. Don’t be in a hurry; when I return to Central Plains, I will help to think of a way, and then I will assist Ye Chen in removing the Magic Power from his body.”

Ouyang Yue smiled slightly.

“This poor guy has a tough life, but he’s a good person. He knows who is good to him and takes care of him well.”

“Have you really decided to leave so soon?”

“After all, I ran away from a wedding, and anyway, I have to go back and apologize to them.”

“Alright, I won’t insist.” Ouyang Yue suddenly asked, “When you go back, will you immediately make up for the wedding?” She had a reason to ask this if she and Song Xizhi were to get married, then there really would be no chance for her and Ye Chen, even though it seemed like Ye Chen had given up. But she pondered that if there ever came a day when Ye Chen got rid of the Magic Power, he shouldn’t regret it for the rest of his life.

Guo Yuyun fell silent for a moment and then replied, “Probably not so soon. After all, I ran away from the wedding, and so much has happened.” Her mood for getting married was gone now; the potential for Ye Chen to be possessed was still hanging in the balance, and she needed to help find a solution and help him. Only when Ye Chen was well would she consider other things.

“You’re afraid that Song Xizhi’s father won’t agree, but I think he is determined to marry you.”

“I’m not afraid of Song Xizhi’s father being angry; I think right now, there are more important things to do first.”

“Understood.” Ouyang Yue nodded, seemingly relieved.
