Chapter 1302 - 1302 1288 A Worthy Opponent

Chapter 1302: Chapter 1288: A Worthy Opponent Chapter 1302: Chapter 1288: A Worthy Opponent “I have to go find him,” Shi Xueqin exclaimed.

“Miss Qin, in your current condition, it’s really not suitable for you to exert yourself. If you weren’t like this, we would indeed hope for your help, but given your current state, we don’t want you to risk anything. If you want to help us, wait until after the child is born, then consider what to do,” Qing’er said, offering comfort.

Yang Tao’er seized the topic, saying, “Yes, what’s important is that we still don’t know on which island Longhun is. If you put yourself through this, it’s very easy to have an accident. Not to mention whether you’ll be able to help us later, it might even endanger you and the baby in your belly.”

“That’s right, the situation isn’t so bad right now. The Sacred Spirit Stone is indeed in Longhun’s hands, but for him to figure it out, it will take a very long time. So during this period, neither the Immortal nor Demon realm will have issues. As for you, let’s talk after the birth of the child,” Qing’er continued.

Shi Xueqin placed the letter on the stone platform, unsure of what to do.

Qing’er and the others knew she was blaming herself, but they also knew what was done was done, offering her understanding and continual comfort.

True to form, Shi Xueqin felt unwell due to her agitation.

They quickly sent Shi Xueqin back to her room. Yang Tao’er took her pulse to ensure there was nothing wrong and left Luo Rui to take care of her before exiting the room with Qing’er.

Qing’er was very worried and asked, “Yang Tao’er, can we set off now?” She knew that these past days, Yang Tao’er had been having final discussions with Divine Doctor Zhu.

“We should be able to,” replied Yang Tao’er.

“Then shall we go find him?”

“Just the two of us?” asked Yang Tao’er.

“Yes, let Luo Rui stay here to help, and she can also take care of Shi Xueqin. If we need more people, I’ll have someone from Demon Palace City come and assist.” Qing’er had already stayed here for quite some days now, waiting for Yang Tao’er. She estimated that waiting for Ye Chen to return to the Central Plains would likely be difficult; they had to go directly to find him.

“Alright, when do you want to leave?” asked Yang Tao’er.

“How about tomorrow?”

“But the letter says they might go to the East Sea to find Longhun.”

“I know, but I’ve been keeping in contact with Li Mo all along. I can find a way to reach them,” Qing’er said.

Luo Rui, overhearing from the doorway, asked, “Qing’er, are you leaving the Central Plains?”

Turning to Luo Rui, Qing’er said, “Luo Rui, I have to make a trip. You stay behind to take care of Shi Xueqin until she gives birth.”

“Just the two of you?” Luo Rui asked worriedly.

“Yes, just us. You stay here, help Divine Doctor Zhu, and also keep an eye on Qin’er.” Qing’er insisted she couldn’t just leave Shi Xueqin by herself. “I’ll send two more girls over; you must take good care of that girl,” she added.

All Luo Rui could say was, “Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of her and won’t let her leave just like that.”

Qing’er was determined to find Ye Chen, and she had made up her mind to set off tomorrow.

Longhun received a carrier pigeon’s message from Elder Xi Feng.

The letter clearly stated how Ye Chen had cleared Su Zhanze’s name and that they knew he was the one behind the incident.

Longhun felt a bit regretful. It had taken him a lot of effort to devise such a plan, only for it to be seen through. He felt it was a pity and that he had underestimated his brother.

Tossing aside the letter, he said, “Having my brother around is a trouble.”

“Indeed, it’s a clever move. To clear Su Zhanze’s name like that and to confirm that we are the masterminds behind the incident at Taiping Island,” Mo Ku remarked.

“Yes, I couldn’t have come up with such a strategy myself, it truly was a masterful move.”

Mo Ku said, “Su Zhanze should be really grateful to him.”

“He won’t be. Su Zhanze is a narrow-minded man; he’ll only feel humiliated, thinking he’s been thoroughly defeated. This isn’t enough to humiliate him,” Longhun argued.

“But he saved the people of Immortal City Sect. If not for him, they would all have died on Paper Kite Island.”

“It just won’t do. With my brother around, it’s always going to be a problem.” Longhun had struggled to set up such a trick, only to have it dissolved just like that, which was somewhat hard for him to accept.

“Without his help, I reckon they would have suffered heavy casualties. Now that they’ve discovered we are the ones behind it, they’ll certainly focus their firepower on dealing with us next.”

“It is quite a headache. What should we do?” said Longhun, shaking his head.

“Thankfully, while they were tangled up, we managed to escape from the Thirty-Six Islands region. It’s impossible for them to catch up to us now,” Mo Ku said.

“Right, but next, the people from both the Immortal and Demon realm will also come looking for us.” Longhun believed that the matter of the Thirty-Six Islands was known to everyone in both realms by now, and the number of people desiring the Sacred Spirit Stone was not few.

“Then we’ll find a way to go into hiding,” suggested Mo Ku.

“No good, everyone’s eyeing us. That’s not a good sign.”

“Yes, they are all watching us. Everyone knows how powerful the Sacred Spirit Stone is; they all want to get their hands on it.” Mo Ku continued, “I heard that after your brother defeated Su Zhanze, he had an episode?”

“What do you mean?”

“He almost lost himself to demonic possession.”

“Are you serious?”

“Yes, that’s what I heard.”

“Then let’s spread the word that my brother almost got possessed.”

“You want to attract people to him, don’t you?”

Longhun said, “There are not a few who covet the Wolf King’s Ring. Let’s send out the news first. Whether they will be attracted or not, I don’t know, but it’s only right to give my brother a little trouble. It’s infuriating how he could foil my plan.” He had thought he could make them inflict mutual damage. If the Immortal City Sect and the Thirty-Six Islands both suffered, he wouldn’t be having such a headache now.

Suddenly, Mo Ku remembered something and said, “Oh, by the way, a couple of days ago, our people spotted Zun Yu.”

“What, Zun Yu, in the Hundred and Eight Islands?” Longhun asked in confusion.

“Yes, ever since they had nowhere to hide in the Central Plains, they left by boat. They were supposed to head south, but somehow, they came east instead. After the Tianye Demon died, everyone in the Immortal and Demon realms has been searching for them. How could they dare to return to the Central Plains?” Mo Ku continued, “They will probably find out soon that the Sacred Spirit Stone is in our hands. Should we bring them in? With their current strength, they can’t handle the Immortal and Demon realms, and they want to find allies. This might be the time they’re willing to join and collaborate with us.”

After listening, Longhun first fell silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, “Let’s not for now. I still need to figure out how to deal with the people from the Immortal and Demon realms and the Thirty-Six Islands. They will soon send someone to find me. If we join forces with Zun Yu now, it will most likely draw the attention of the Immortal and Demon realms and the Thirty-Six Islands, leaving me with no time to study the Sacred Spirit Stone.”

Mo Ku felt that Longhun made a lot of sense and said, “True, we should be figuring out how to hide. If we look for Zun Yu, who knows if they also want to snatch the Sacred Spirit Stone. If so, it will definitely cause trouble for us.”

Longhun chuckled and said, “For now, just keep an eye on them. Maybe we can collaborate with them later.”

“Understood. I will have someone watch them.”

“I need to think of a way to hoodwink my brother.”

“He’s in a bind himself now. Are you worried he will help the people from the Thirty-Six Islands to deal with us?”

“My brother is just too righteous. He’s the type to throw his life away. To fight me, he even put on the Wolf King’s Ring. What foolish thing can’t he do? He will definitely help the people from the Thirty-Six Islands and the Immortal and Demon realms against us, otherwise, he wouldn’t be himself.”

“What should we do then?”

In a murmur, Longhun said, “The following Hundred and Eight Islands will definitely be bustling.”

“Then we shouldn’t stay in the South Sea.”

“Not stay in the South Sea? Where would you go?”

“Back to the Central Plains,” said Mo Ku.

“The people from the Dragon Slaying Clan suddenly disappearing from the Hundred and Eight Islands would attract attention.”

Mo Ku nodded slightly and said, “That’s true. If we all head back to the Central Plains, and there’s no trace of us in the Hundred and Eight Islands, it will surely raise suspicions.”

“Of course, it will definitely arouse suspicion. I know my brother would suspect.”

“How about you return to the Central Plains, and I’ll handle them.”

However, Longhun said, “No rush. Let’s wait for Elder Xi Feng to return and discuss it. I need to plan this carefully.” He believed that things were not that terrible. After all, he had left the Thirty-Six Islands, and although he did not cause significant harm to the Immortal City Sect and the Thirty-Six Islands at Paper Kite Island, he surely made a big impact. They had not recovered yet, and even if the Immortal and Demon realms’ people knew about the incident at Paper Kite Island, it would take some time for them to take action. He still had a bit of time to plan and prepare.

If he just left a group of people to deal with the Immortal and Demon realms and the Thirty-Six Islands, it likely wouldn’t distract them for long, so a grand plan was essential.

The Taiping Island had been planned so meticulously, setting such a huge trap, and yet it was completely exposed by his brother. To create a flawless plan without thoroughly thinking it through was impossible.

“By the way, any news from Old Du?”

“There’s no news from Old Du yet.”

“I thought we could have a quiet half a month. I never expected it to unravel so quickly. It’s such a pity, really infuriating.”

But Mo Ku replied, “However, the Sacred Spirit Stone is already in our possession.”

“Yes, it’s a consolation prize. But we can’t be careless. The local snake got his hands on the Sacred Spirit Stone and ended up losing his life. I don’t want to end up like he did.”

“That idiot is not even worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as the Island Master.”

“No, the local snake did have some brains. Though he failed, his plan was nearly perfect. He just didn’t anticipate an opponent like me.”
