Chapter 1347 - 1347 1333 Calculations

Chapter 1347: Chapter 1333: Calculations Chapter 1347: Chapter 1333: Calculations “Can you get news from inside?” Ye Chen asked, puzzled.

“Yes, we are very lucky.” Meng Xiuluo didn’t intend to hide anything and continued, “That’s why I’m so confident. Don’t worry, the plan will definitely succeed. Zang Di won’t expect us to join forces with Scorpion Witch, and this will catch them off guard.”

Her face was full of confidence as if everything was under her control. It all must be true. Ye Chen asked, “Is that girl alright?”

“Is it that if someone sleeps with her, you’ll rescue her then?”

Her words were indeed quite direct. Ye Chen said, “I’m asking you if she’s alright?”

“That girl isn’t stupid. She disguised herself as a beggar, even dressed up as an idiot, and pretended to be mute, to avoid drawing attention as much as possible.”

She must know the situation inside; how else could she talk about it so clearly?

“But dressing up as a beggar won’t fool them for long. Soon those people will find a way to make her clean up, and then the truth will out. Even if she is an idiot, as long as she is beautiful, those brutes won’t care at all, unless she scars her face, maybe that’ll fool them.”

Ye Chen definitely didn’t believe Guo Yuyun would scar her own face. Enduring humiliation and living in secrecy were things only he could do. Guo Yuyun would never do such a thing.

“So, are you really planning to wait until she is violated before you rescue her?”

Hearing her words and knowing Guo Yuyun was still safe somewhat reassured him. But she was right. Who could guarantee she would always be that lucky with those brutes around?

“Have you figured it out?” Meng Xiuluo asked.

“Now you are the boss; what can I say?”

It was obvious he was very reluctant, and she laughed saying, “Being resentful won’t help. The power lies with us.”

“If it weren’t for my help, they might not have agreed.”

Meng Xiuluo sneered and said, “Your help! What a joke. If it weren’t for my silver tongue, they wouldn’t have lifted a finger, and if we weren’t well-informed, seizing their weak point, they wouldn’t have agreed. You’re just a bargain.” Saying this, she turned and walked away, clearly someone was waiting for her. She also said, “Stay in the room. In one hour, we’ll depart.”

Watching her leave, Ye Chen hadn’t expected that one day he would be led by the nose by a young girl, feeling no different from an old ox.

Following that girl gave him an extreme sense of insecurity; he could be betrayed at any moment. Ye Chen strongly felt he couldn’t control this girl; only she had the upper hand over him.

He had no idea what she was up to, but his talk with Scorpion Witch earlier confirmed one thing—that the girl had already plotted to leave Slaughter Island once the deed was done. And Ye Chen had absolutely no clue about it. He had been with her almost all of last night; how had she managed to plan without him noticing at all?

The girl talked with people below, occasionally glancing up at him as if she was afraid he’d overhear. Damn it, why didn’t he follow them? No, they had no intention of letting him hear; if he went down, those people would surely scatter. He didn’t need to eavesdrop on their conversation; he already had a plan, and eavesdropping would be beneath him.

Since when did he need to eavesdrop on other’s plans to be confident?

Meng Xiuluo asked her assistant, “Are the boats ready?”

“The two boats you requested, I’ve prepared them.”

“Good, just in case we need them.”

“Yes.”

“You all heard what Scorpion Witch said just now. Let’s still be careful,” Meng Xiuluo said.

One of her subordinates said, “Should we capture that girl? I reckon that guy will attempt to rescue her and then try to shake us off.”

The assistant chuckled and replied, “Don’t worry, they won’t be able to shake us off.”

Meng Xiuluo knew what he was implying and smiled, “Alright, get ready quickly, everyone. The most important thing is to rescue our people; that’s our primary objective. After we rescue them and coordinate with Scorpion Witch and her group to pincer Zang Di’s gang, it’s about time for us to leave. We absolutely can’t afford to delay on Slaughter Island.”

The subordinates nodded in agreement.

“It wouldn’t be right if we don’t show some gratitude after they help us rescue our people. We’ll cooperate with them according to what Scorpion Witch said, to express our thanks,” Meng Xiuluo reminded, “But we mustn’t get involved too deeply. I believe Ling Li must know about our situation on Slaughter Island; she just hasn’t been able to get here, that’s all.”

The people kept nodding.

“Alright, let’s move out.” Meng Xiuluo marshaled some of the people who had been stranded but not captured. They numbered about thirty. Though not many, with Scorpion Witch’s help, their strength would show.

Meng Xiuluo continued, “I suspect Zang Di might be cooperating with Ling Li.”

The assistant looked over, puzzled, “Really? They would cooperate with Ling Li?”

Meng Xiuluo explained, “Zang Di hates us for helping Scorpion Witch break the siege last time. Now that they have captured our people, it shows they’ve cut ties with us. Zang Di’s martial arts are indeed formidable, but to oppose us so openly, they don’t have the power unless they have backers, and on the hundred and eight islands, the only significant backer could be Ling Li. Only Ling Li dares to confront us.”

The assistant said in surprise after listening, “Then they might hand our people over to Ling Li.”

“Yes, it’s possible, so we need to act fast, we definitely have to hurry and rescue them. If Ling Li arrives, then it will be really dangerous.”

The assistant said, “Good, everything is ready on our end, I believe we can definitely succeed.”

“Alright, in one hour, we set off.”

There was a knock at Ye Chen’s door.

Ye Chen knew it must be that girl, and he said coldly, “Come in.”

“Are you planning to continue sleeping, or do you want to wait for us to carry you there in a palanquin?” Meng Xiuluo said as he saw him lying in bed as if nothing was wrong, almost like he was feigning helplessness.

Ye Chen glanced at her and asked, “Have you all secretly discussed how you’re going to deal with us later?”

“Heh, more or less,” Meng Xiuluo said.

Ye Chen sat up and drank a cup of tea.

“Later on, you’ll be with the Scorpion Witch and her lot.”

Ye Chen became alert upon hearing this and said, “What!”

“The Scorpion Witch and them will be drawing off the main force up front. Zang Di will certainly be at the front, so of course you’ll have to go there.”

Doubt filled Ye Chen’s eyes as he pondered; without this chance, he wouldn’t be able to meet Guo Yuyun.

“Don’t worry, we will figure out a way to rescue the girl. Just make sure you don’t lure Zang Di our way, otherwise our plan is unlikely to succeed.”

Ye Chen weighed his options. If she captured Yun’er, wouldn’t that be awful?

“Basically, your job is to hold Zang Di’s attention; the longer you fool him, the greater our chances of success.” Meng Xiuluo knew exactly what he was thinking and said, “Don’t worry, if we wanted to con you, we wouldn’t be waiting around for this moment.”

Ye Chen gave a cold smile.

“Really, you need to help us keep Zang Di occupied while we try to rescue your girl.”

“Recapture her yourself, and then I’ll believe you.”

Meng Xiuluo bared his teeth in a smile, his eyes looking ever more like those of a flounder. Ye Chen remarked, “Has no one ever told you that your eyes, they kind of look like those of a flounder?”

A slap came flying his way as the other snapped, “Want to die, do you?”

They needed to cross the dense forest ahead; Zang Di’s lair was in a valley on the other side of that forest.

“Don’t play any tricks. If you bring Zang Di here and ruin our big plan, whether or not the girl can be rescued is entirely in your hands. Just don’t say I didn’t warn you—you only get one shot. While Zang Di isn’t expecting us to team up with the Demon Clan, if you miss this chance, a second attempt will be even less likely to succeed.”

“Did you calculate all of this in advance? Did you intend to get rid of me straight away?” Ye Chen was very suspicious.

“No, it’s just a division of labor. You truly are more formidable than Scorpion Witch and Shi Chengyuan.”

Ye Chen wasn’t buying it, nor would he get carried away just because someone praised him a couple of times.

“Stop overthinking it, and consider not turning rabid when the time comes.”

A large group was already approaching from the other side. Meng Xiuluo stopped the conversation and went to meet them, exchanging pleasantries with Scorpion Witch and others.

Ye Chen stood idly at the back, looking like someone who had been wronged.

Soon, a large crowd walked over.

“Let’s not waste words. Let’s ensure our success as planned this morning.”

Unconsciously, noon arrived.

Zang Di decided to hand this group over to Ling Li. He was convinced Ling Li and his people must be especially eager to have this group, muttering to himself, “Longhun, don’t blame me, this is all your making.” He had already contacted Ling Li, but it would still take some time for him to arrive.

Wu Xinyou, on his left and right, said, “They have no heart, so don’t blame us for lacking righteousness.” Before, they had some relations with the Mutant Winged Dragon, but ever since Longhun took over as leader of the Dragon Slaying Clan, those relations had ceased, and the situation had worsened.

Turning over this group would mean a complete breach with Longhun, but it would also mean a significant accomplishment. Perhaps Ling Li and his people would agree to help and join forces against the Demon Clan. As long as Ling Li helped, he was confident the Demon Clan wouldn’t stand a chance. They wanted to take advantage of Longhun’s absence to quickly eliminate the Demon Clan and take control of Slaughter Island.

That was the risk they were taking.
