Chapter 1416 - 1416 1402 Prospective Daughter-in-law

Chapter 1416: Chapter 1402: Prospective Daughter-in-law Chapter 1416: Chapter 1402: Prospective Daughter-in-law “Li Mo is also worried, he’ll find a way to contact them, making sure they don’t act rashly. As long as we can catch up in time,” the Black Demonic Spirit said.

“It seems like the situation has turned somewhat in our favor,” Yang Tao’er said.

Ye Chen fell silent for a moment. If what the Black Demonic Spirit said was true, where exactly was the Evil Spirit lurking? Could it really be a trap, just waiting for them to arrive? Longhun was indeed not someone who played by the rules, and he might really do something like that.

“Alright, I won’t talk any more. I need to rest well in the horse car,” he said.

“Don’t mess around, getting hooked by some beauty,” Ouyang Yue said.

“Don’t worry, I understand what’s important,” the Black Demonic Spirit said as he stood up.

The Black Demonic Spirit, with some food in hand, left.

Suddenly, it was just Ye Chen and the rest of them left inside.

Yang Tao’er asked, “If this truly is a trap, what should we do?”

Without much thought, Ouyang Yue said, “Even if it’s a trap, we need to find a way to rescue them. If the Dragon Slayer Sword falls into Longhun’s hands, we’re done for, because no one can stand against Longhun.”

Ye Chen became quiet too.

Guo Yuyun was also pondering something, and the atmosphere suddenly tensed up again.

Ouyang Yue said, “Hey, let’s not talk about this anymore. Hurry up and eat. After eating, we still need to hit the road. Don’t waste time here.”

Yu Yun nudged Ye Chen and said, “Eat something, stop thinking.”

Ye Chen snapped back to the present. He had just been looking at the map. Now with more people involved, the situation should improve, but he needed to figure out how they could coordinate as one. He must figure out how to rescue the people from the Immortal-Demon Realm tomorrow while minimizing casualties. They will still have to battle the Dragon Slaying Clan in the future.

Ouyang Yue said, “Although Nangong Yao and the others couldn’t make it, if a group of people from the Immortal-Demon Realm help us and coordinate as one, there shouldn’t be any problems.”

After a hurried breakfast, they set off.

In a horse car bound westward with three passengers, Ye Chen, Guo Yuyun, and Yang Tao’er, Ouyang Yue, not wanting to tag along with them, didn’t join them but instead followed the main force.

Ye Chen took the reins as a coachman, with Guo Yuyun sitting on one side, and Yang Tao’er, like a young mistress, leaning by the carriage window to take in the surrounding scenery—though there wasn’t much to see aside from the dense woods, still just dense woods.

At that moment, not even a bird could be seen, which made people wonder if the place was haunted. A long stretch of road and only their horse car in sight—it was indeed a bit eerie.

Yang Tao’er said, “I told you to let the two of you go on your own, but you refused and insisted on dragging me along. Now look, aren’t I just in the way?”

“Not at all,” Guo Yuyun said, her concern for Ye Chen’s safety being the reason she brought Yang Tao’er along, just in case.

“Without me, you two could have your hands all over each other. If necessary, you could even sneak into the woods. With me here, you can’t do anything,” Yang Tao’er added.

Guo Yuyun laughed and said, “You really think we’re like those peasants, heading into the woods?”

“It sounds more thrilling that way.”

Ye Chen, overhearing, said, “You’re bound to find someone ferocious.”

Guo Yuyun slapped him lightly and exclaimed, “Just focus on driving the horse car, you’re the one with the most issues.”

“It makes me feel shy too,” Yang Tao’er said.

“You’re not as desperate as you make it sound,” Guo Yuyun said.

“If it were just two people, driving the horse car and telling ghost stories along the way, that would be interesting,” Yang Tao’er mused.

Ye Chen said, “Telling ghost stories would only scare me, not her.”

Guo Yuyun said, “If you’re hungry, just grab something to eat from the box.”

“I will,” Yang Tao’er replied before adding, “Do you think the Dragon Slaying Clan knows that Lou Xuanhai and the others are coming to help?”

Ye Chen had been pondering this problem ever since he heard the news from the Black Demonic Spirit this morning. If the people of the Dragon Slaying Clan were unaware, he could take good advantage of this fact, saying, “Perhaps they don’t know.”

“Then maybe we can catch them by surprise,” Yang Tao’er continued. “If they don’t know about Lou Xuanhai’s coming but they do know we’ve shaken off the Demon Clan, he’ll definitely be super vigilant toward us. We could use their lack of awareness about Lou Xuanhai to draw their attention through us, allowing Lou Xuanhai to deliver the final blow. If coordinated properly, it would definitely catch them off-guard.”

“Hehe, girl, you seem to have grown a lot recently,” Ye Chen said with praise.

“Isn’t that obvious? I’ve always been smart,” she retorted.

Guo Yuyun also said, “Their appearance would indeed be more advantageous for us, but we must be careful of the Evil Spirit.”

Ye Chen’s focus returned to the Evil Spirit as he inquired, “Yang Tao’er, your acupuncture skills are so amazing. Last time, you helped by using acupuncture to control the Giant Beast. Could you use acupuncture to control the Evil Spirit as well?”

“Are Evil Spirits the same as other Giant Beasts? How could they be easily controlled? You really know how to make things difficult for me. If it were that easy, Baili He would have already controlled it.”

“Hey, you should have some confidence in yourself. I believe you can do it. You’re so smart. It’s just an Evil Spirit. Even the Moon Beast seems like nothing to you.”

Ye Chen sought to use reverse psychology. True enough, if that girl could somehow control the Evil Spirit, his own burden would be much lighter.

“Don’t think you can fool me. I won’t be so easily swayed to throw myself into danger just because you say a few nice words.”

Ye Chen chuckled to himself, the girl was quite sharp; she knew he was trying to bait her.

“Your Yun’er can control monsters too, why not just ask her?”

“Her? She’s only half-skilled. How could her ability even compare to yours? I’m crystal clear about that. You’re the most formidable beast controller I’ve ever seen.”

Yang Tao’er knew exactly what he was up to and said, “I won’t fall for your tricks so easily. You think I don’t know what you’re really thinking? You’re afraid your future wife might be in danger, so you deliberately call her half-skilled to get me to take the risk. You’re truly wicked.”

Guo Yuyun couldn’t help but giggle at that moment, unable to contain herself.

Ye Chen said, “No, she really is only half-skilled. She never acts recklessly without certainty. One time, the monster she controlled nearly ate me alive. But you’ve never had such problems. I believe that if you’re willing, you could handle the Evil Spirit as well. You should have confidence in yourself.”

Seeing Yun’er laughing, Yang Tao’er said, “How unfair, pushing such a good opportunity onto me instead of your future wife. She has more confidence than I do.”

Unexpectedly, this girl was quite astute; she wouldn’t be easily fooled.

“Hey, you’ve got to help out. If we really do encounter an Evil Spirit, I think Baili He is only half-skilled too. If you can help create a mess, we might get twice the result with half the effort, while I have to deal with Longhun. If there were no souls involved, dealing with the Evil Spirit wouldn’t be an issue for me, but I can’t leave my post, so someone has to help with the Evil Spirit. I believe there’s no one else in the Immortal Demon Realm capable of such a feat, except you.”

Yang Tao’er laughed, “You are really ruthless, expecting me, unarmed, to face the Evil Spirit. That’s quite the thought. I guess you just want your future wife to sit back and watch.”

“No, how could you be unarmed? I’ll give you a sword to use.”

“Yes, a sword for me.”

“Ai ya, when it comes to controlling beasts, you really are exceptional. I won’t insist on you controlling it, just help me stop the Evil Spirit from causing chaos, buying me some time. If there’s any danger, I’ll immediately fly over to save you. How’s that?”

“Hehe, believing you would be the real joke. As if you’d come save me!” Yang Tao’er scoffed mockingly. “I’m not that foolish.”

Guo Yuyun finally couldn’t help but speak up, “Alright, I’ll deal with the Evil Spirit when the time comes.”

“What? You’re joking. You versus an Evil Spirit? You must be out of your mind,” Ye Chen exclaimed in astonishment. He himself couldn’t deal with an Evil Spirit without the Magic Power from the Wolf King’s Ring.

“You underestimate me, thinking I can’t handle the Evil Spirit. I’ll have you know that my beast controlling skills have progressed leaps and bounds recently.”

Yang Tao’er sitting inside the horse car was also stunned.

Ye Chen shook his head, “This is no joke. I know you’ve studied a lot of acupuncture knowledge because of me and probably advanced a lot using your previous methods. You may have improved slightly from being half-skilled, but you must realize what you’re up against.” How could he let Guo Yuyun face the Evil Spirit?

“I’m not joking. It’s just an Evil Spirit.”

“Ha, just an Evil Spirit?” Ye Chen laughed. “Sure, your confidence is truly inspiring, but do you know the Evil Spirit is even more formidable than the Sea Demon? To deal with the Sea Demon, your father paid with his life. Do you think you’re better than your father?”

Guo Yuyun knew he was worried about her, but she needed to present some rationale, “Right, you are correct. I can’t kill the Evil Spirit, but one thing I finally understood is that Baili He doesn’t completely control the Evil Spirit. That means I could exploit this weakness. I don’t need to kill or control the Evil Spirit. I just have to make sure it can’t be manipulated to kill our people.”
