Chapter 1293 - 1293 1279 Evil Spirit

Chapter 1293: Chapter 1279: Evil Spirit Chapter 1293: Chapter 1279: Evil Spirit Ye Chen nudged the Black Demonic Spirit and said, “Do you understand?”

During that time, the Black Demonic Spirit had also been assisting the people of the Sacred Spirit Sect. In the group of disciples from the Sacred Spirit Sect, it had established some prestige. If it could work with Li Mo, without the influence of Ouyang Yue, stabilizing the members of the Sacred Spirit Sect and getting them to follow Li Mo wouldn’t be difficult.

The Black Demonic Spirit replied listlessly, “I know, I understand.”

Ye Chen still expressed his concerns, “Actually, I’m not too worried about Nangong Yao and Wan Liyun. What worries me the most is Qin Tuoluo and those island masters below us. They might seize the opportunity to create chaos. You were following me during that time, so you know that the people from the thirty-six islands want the Sacred Spirit Stone.”

Li Mo said with a smile, “I’m afraid they’re not only after the Sacred Spirit Stone but also the Dragon Slayer Sword and the Heavenly Pearl.”

Ye Chen nodded and said, “Exactly, that’s what I’m worried about. On the surface, they say everything will go according to plan, but back on Taiping Island, Nangong Yao and the others agreed that whoever gets their hands on the Dragon Slayer Sword would own it. They definitely harbor such thoughts.”

Li Mo said, “I’m afraid there are quite a number of people with such thoughts.”

“Right, you all must have heard that after Qin Tuoluo trapped Su Zhanze, he wanted Su Zhanze to hand over the Dragon Slayer Sword and then let them go. However, Su Zhanze didn’t agree. I believe Qin Tuoluo still harbors the thought of acquiring the Dragon Slayer Sword.”

Li Mo said anxiously, “The Black Demonic Spirit and I will keep a close eye on them and won’t let them cause any trouble. You can rest assured about that.”

Seeing Li Mo say this, Ye Chen said, “Hmm, I hope everything can be resolved today.”

Song Xizhi asked, “If there’s anything else, you can also leave it to me.” He knew that Ye Chen was going to deal with Su Zhanze, which might not leave him free to do anything else.

Looking at Guo Yuyun, Ye Chen said, “Then take good care of Yun’er.”

These words made Yun’er very displeased. It was as if saying she was just a vase, always needing someone else’s protection. She protested, “I don’t need anyone to protect me.”

She was still the same person, always maintaining her stubbornness, looking unconvinced as always. Ye Chen sighed, “Alright then, you assist Li Mo. Is that better?”

If he didn’t assign her a task, she would not be content. Ye Chen knew this very well. He shouldn’t provoke her too much; it was better to irritate her less. She still remembered the drinking incident. If he drove her to desperation and she went to drink, what if something happened?

Li Mo said, “It would be better if I assist Yun’er.”

Ye Chen quickly said, “What are you joking about? I’m putting you in charge because you’ve established prestige among the disciples of the Sacred Spirit Sect. Do you think I’m playing house here? If something goes wrong today, who knows how many people will die.”

Li Mo bowed his head and hurriedly said, “The leader is right.”

“If we can get through today safely, I will be grateful to heaven and earth.”

Li Mo also understood the gravity of the situation.

Ye Chen needed to use the people of the Sacred Spirit Sect to help him stabilize the situation as much as possible and prevent it from deteriorating further, so that no more lives would be unnecessarily sacrificed.

“Alright, go and get ready,” said Ye Chen. He had nothing more to say, having reminded them and having gone through the plan once again in his mind. It seemed that there was nothing left to address.

He even felt a bit naggy, like a parent worried about their child leaving home and facing danger, repeatedly saying the same things over and over, still concerned that something might go wrong. If this wasn’t fussiness, then what was?

Guo Yuyun and Song Xizhi were about to leave when Ye Chen called out to them, “Be careful.”

“You should be careful yourself,” Guo Yuyun said.

Ye Chen smiled and responded, “You’re right, the person who should be most careful is me.”

Fireballs flew out, pressing towards the city walls, while groups of Winged Dragons also attacked the walls, shattering the peace of Paper Kite Island.

The people from the thirty-six islands had unanimously decided to only attack those from the Immortal City Sect and not the rest of the city. As long as they broke through the city walls, everything else would be negotiable.

Ling Li said to Su Zhanze, “It seems like Wan Liyun really has lured the Evil Spirits over.”

“Heh, so they’ve come, what of it? Do you really think I’d be afraid?” Of course, it was Su Zhanze speaking. He continued, “I can hardly wait for the Evil Spirits to come. I want to witness them for myself, to see if they truly can be controlled, and to see who will end up suffering the consequences.”

Chen Yu said, “That’s true, even if they control the Evil Spirits, they’re only half-capable. If the Evil Spirits go mad, it’s anyone’s guess who will suffer.”

Su Zhanze killed with abandon throughout yesterday afternoon, which filled him with confidence. Ye Chen was only so skillful after all. It was just Su Zhanze overestimating him; he was not that formidable. Today, Su Zhanze could truly unleash his power and show them what he was capable of. He said, “Come on, I’ll make sure it tastes the might of the Dragon Slayer Sword. I won’t let that kid escape easily today, not a chance. If he wants to take me on, I’d like to see what he’s got, whether he really wants to go berserk.”

Fireballs flew as the fiercest battle raged above, clashing like water and fire, causing a tumult that shook the heavens and earth right from the start.

Elder Xi Feng was lying in wait with his men, watching, as the forces from the thirty-six islands were about to attack.

His aide came back and reported, “Don’t worry, Qin Tuoluo has been persuaded. Qin Tuoluo and those island masters will join the fight for the Dragon Slayer Sword eventually.”

Elder Xi Feng’s subordinate said, “That’s great. Once they’re in total disarray, we’ll all charge out together and be invincible, with no one as our match.”

“Of course, nobody will be able to control the situation by then.”

Elder Xi Feng asked, “Is everything to be commanded by Ye Chen?” He knew Ye Chen was a cautious person and very diligent in his actions, and the plan had come from him.

“He’s dealing with Su Zhanze and can’t possibly command the situation. Even if he wasn’t confronting Su Zhanze, it would still be the same. These aren’t disciples of the New City Sect. Although the people from the thirty-six islands follow him, they don’t listen to him,” replied the aide.

The subordinate by his side laughed and said, “That’s perfect, our opportunity has come as well.”

Elder Xi Feng felt somewhat relieved and instructed, “Alright, everyone get ready and wait for my command.”

Ye Chen, under the city walls, saw that Su Zhanze had already begun a massacre. The people below were no match for him. If he didn’t intervene soon, many would fall to Su Zhanze’s sword. With a leap, Ye Chen surged upwards.

Su Zhanze glared at Ye Chen, as if Ye Chen had stolen his beloved, making Ye Chen very uncomfortable. How could one boy glare at another like that? It was quite odd, but that was exactly how Su Zhanze was looking at him.

A sword struck down as Ye Chen jumped swiftly to dodge. A wave of sword energy rushed towards him, and luckily he ran fast enough; otherwise, not even his bones would have been found.

Su Zhanze was considering that the most annoying person was this guy right here. He had to kill him first before dealing with the other nuisances.

Ye Chen didn’t want to engage with Su Zhanze immediately. He knew he wasn’t Su Zhanze’s match; he was there just to hold Su Zhanze at bay. As for the next steps, he would wait for the Evil Spirit to arrive.

Several waves of Su Zhanze’s sword energy came again, and Ye Chen quickly dodged. The waves were like monsters pursuing him tenaciously, exploding some buildings within the city to ashes when falling energy struck them.

Ye Chen was left with no other option but to flee, occasionally retaliating with a couple of palm strikes that hardly threatened Su Zhanze and merely served to break Su Zhanze’s momentum. No energy could get close to Su Zhanze, intercepted mid-way by him.

Following that, Su Zhanze unleashed even more ferocious attacks. Ye Chen darted around like a monkey, leaping from one side to the other, back and forth.

Guo Yuyun watched from below, her heart pounding, muttering to herself what Ye Chen was trying to do and if he was aware of the danger.

A roar sounded from behind—it was the bellow of the Evil Spirit. The sea began to churn with tumultuous waves, some towering and overwhelming. The monster was being led by a ship toward them, drawing nearer and nearer.

Right in front.

Upon seeing the Evil Spirit, it resembled a gigantic octopus, swinging its lengthy tentacles, closing in rapidly. With each step covering several zhang, it approached swiftly, and within the blink of an eye, was only a few dozen zhang away, the roar growing louder and clearer.

Lead by a dozen elders, they cautiously drew the Evil Spirit towards the shore, still somewhat apprehensive that it might go wild and become uncontrollable.

The people from the thirty-six islands cleared a path, already aware of the Evil Spirit’s ferocity. They were concerned it might spew Fireballs at them, as no one wished to be turned into roast chicken.

This was Guo Yuyun’s first encounter with the Evil Spirit, and although it seemed somewhat similar to a Demon God, it was evidently larger. She thought these people were insane, actually leading the ravaging Evil Spirit ashore to defeat the Immortal City Sect. The thirty-six islands, known for their righteousness, now seemed no different from the Dragon Slaying Clan.

She believed the people of Iron Ten Thousand Island, having been pirates in the past, were capable of such a dangerous move, luring the Evil Spirit ashore.

A Fireball struck, hitting the city walls.

Su Zhanze had the upper hand, but Ye Chen dodged and weaved instead of engaging directly, so Su Zhanze couldn’t get a hold on him. However, Su Zhanze soon shifted his focus to the others. With Ye Chen not so lucky, and the others faring even worse, Ye Chen had no choice but to engage in battle with Su Zhanze, lest the entire city suffer for it.

But Ye Chen truly could not withstand Su Zhanze’s attacks. As a lightning-filled strike from Su Zhanze came, it blasted Ye Chen back to the ground from mid-air, creating a huge crater on impact.

Just as Ye Chen seemed about to be devoured by a surge of energy, a Fireball, like a meteor from the sky, rushed towards Su Zhanze from ahead.
