Super God Grandmaster
Chapter 1418 - 1418 1404 Awakening

Chapter 1418: Chapter 1404: Awakening Chapter 1418: Chapter 1404: Awakening It didn’t take long for Ye Chen to arrive.

He was holding a water skin.

And really, this was a rather nice place. It was surrounded by shade, with banyan trees blocking the sunlight overhead, and it was situated on relatively high ground, which allowed for a gentle breeze to come through in waves.

“Come soak your feet, it’s really comfortable,” Yang Tao’er said.

“If I’m going to soak, I might as well soak my whole body.”

The grilled chicken was already torn apart, but both legs had been given to Guo Yuyun and Yang Tao’er respectively.

He had no choice but to eat the chicken wings.

Suddenly, Yang Tao’er asked, “Right, I heard that Su Zhan Ze knew you guys were on Meng Xiuluo’s ship. He didn’t come to rescue you, but instead added two surges of tumultuous energy. Is that true?”

Guo Yuyun answered, “He is angry because he thinks my sister and Monkey have an unresolved relationship and believes it’s because of Monkey that she won’t get back together with him.”

“Is that so? But I know your sister, she’s not that kind of person.” Even though Yang Tao’er had not spent a lot of time with Qing’er, she still understood her character.

Guo Yuyun shook her head and said, “I don’t know.”

“You’re also doubting your sister.”

“Hey, do you two really think I don’t exist? I’ve never thought of getting back with Qing’er, not since she was with Su Zhan Ze,” Ye Chen said.

“Then after your sister and Su Zhan Ze broke up, didn’t you think about being with her?” Guo Yuyun asked.

“I’ve already promised to be with you. You should trust me.”

Yang Tao’er explained, “Let me say something. Qing’er didn’t choose to break up with Su Zhan Ze because of Ye Chen.”

“How would you know that?” Guo Yuyun was curious. While she believed her sister was not that kind of person, Qing’er had suddenly refused to be with Su Zhan Ze after agreeing to give him a chance. And since she couldn’t find any other reason, she had grounds to suspect that perhaps her sister thought that by marrying Song Xizhi, she would then have a chance. Sometimes girls do things that others can’t understand, they’re not always rational and are easily controlled by their emotions.

It turned out that after Qing’er had found Yang Tao’er, she had told her during a casual conversation why she had refused to be with Su Zhan Ze. Anxious, Yang Tao’er said, “I actually do know why your sister refused to be with Su Zhan Ze, and it’s not because of Ye Chen.” She knew Yun’er was jealous.

Guo Yuyun looked over skeptically.

“She told me during the time we spent together,” Yang Tao’er continued.

Ye Chen lay on the ground pretending to sleep.

Yang Tao’er went on, “Your sister found out that Su Zhan Ze was responsible for driving Fang Ziren mad and framing Ren Xiongbei for it. That’s why she didn’t want to be with him.”

Guo Yuyun questioned, “My sister knew about this earlier?” She was doubtful.

“Yes, your sister found out from Jiang Shizi, who overheard a conversation between Su Zhan Ze and Yuan Jingxing. Su Zhan Ze even admitted he was the mastermind behind it all, doing it for revenge because Fang Ziren had thrown him off a cliff and he almost went mad from cultivation deviation. Although he survived the ordeal, it damaged his most cherished looks, so he wanted Fang Ziren to suffer the same fate.”

Guo Yuyun looked over and asked, “Is that really the case?”

“You’ve really misunderstood your sister. Su Zhan Ze framed Ren Xiongbei, claiming it was for revenge because it was Ren Xiongbei who caused Qing’er to be captured, which eventually led to their breakup. However, your sister believes that besides wanting to get his hands on the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual, his framing of Ren Xiongbei also had another purpose, which was to take the position of Sect Leader. That’s what your sister thinks,” Yang Tao’er continued.

“Such a ruthless man Su Zhan Ze is, and that’s why your sister refused to be with him,”

“All of this was what my sister told you?”

“Yes, I have no reason to lie to you. All of this was told by Jiang Shizi to your sister, so in the end, your sister refused to be with Su Zhan Ze because she saw through his character and couldn’t stand what he did.”

Guo Yuyun slapped Ye Chen, who was pretending to sleep, and said, “Did you hear that clearly? My sister didn’t break up with Su Zhan Ze because she wanted to be with you.” She seemed worried he hadn’t heard.

“Hey, let me sleep for a bit. I still have to drive the horse car later,” Ye Chen turned his head away.

Yang Tao’er smiled slightly and said, “You, as her sister, actually doubt your own sister? That’s pretty bad.”

“I don’t doubt her, it’s just that I have reasons for my suspicions,” Guo Yuyun said.

“Then you’re wrong to get angry with your sister over it.” She really wanted to give her a good scolding.

“How was I to know it would be like this? At first, she agreed to have a proper talk with Su Zhan Ze upon my persuasion, but, unexpectedly, she refused to be with him without even discussing it, so I had every reason to suspect.”

“For sure, it must have been Su Zhan Ze who told you that your sister wanted to be with Ye Chen,” Yang Tao’er said.

Guo Yuyun recalled the events from the night she ran away from the wedding. Although Su Zhan Ze didn’t say her sister wanted to be with Ye Chen, he told her that Ye Chen was not dead, which implied as much.

Seeing that Guo Yuyun didn’t respond, Yang Tao’er shook her head and said, “It seems Su Zhan Ze is a rather cunning individual. Monkey, you need to be careful. You might not be so lucky next time, he might just cleave your head in half with a sword just like he did to Xiong Shuobo.” The news of Su Zhan Ze killing Xiong Shuobo had already spread far and wide.

“It wasn’t until he provoked my sister that it irritated Su Zhanze.”

Ye Chen finally couldn’t help it, opened his eyes, and said, “I disagree with that statement. Just now Yang Tao’er made it clear too that my sister didn’t want to be with Su Zhanze because she saw through his character. That has nothing to do with me; you can’t pin this on me.”

“Then how did Su Zhanze know you were on that boat and came slashing his sword?” Guo Yuyun clamored.

“How would I know what got into him, he knew you were on the boat too and didn’t rescue you.”

“Anyway, it was because you provoked Su Zhanze, causing his anger.”

“This is really unfair. I even fled to the Thirty-Six Islands, and now you’re blaming his personal issues on me, as if his inability to get back with my sister is my fault. This is detestable; what else can I say?”

Yang Tao’er said, “Su Zhanze is a dangerous man. You better be careful or you’ll end up like Fang Ziren, Ren Xiongbei, and Xiong Shuobo.”

“If I could choose, I’d rather stay far away from him,” Ye Chen said.

“Less coquetry would have spared you so much trouble,” Guo Yuyun said.

“Do I need to make eyes at your sister?”

A slap came fiercely at him. Ye Chen quickly curled up like a hedgehog, waiting until she finished before he said, “Honestly, the only one to blame is Su Zhanze himself. Besides being narrow-minded, whenever he has a problem, he likes finding faults in others, shirking his responsibilities and never changing.”

“You’re no different,” Guo Yuyun said coldly.

Ye Chen, not convinced, asked, “Am I narrow-minded?”

“When there’s a problem, don’t you like to blame others too? If you really wanted to have nothing more to do with my sister, why then did you have Li Mo keep writing to her and even send your regards?”

“That was just simple concern.”

“Really! Does she need your concern?” Guo Yuyun shook her head, “You don’t realize how much my sister cares for you, yet you’re ‘concerned’. Who do you think you are that she should care about you too?”

“I didn’t ‘concern’ her that many times, okay, it was just twice.”

“Right, you should’ve sent your regards in every one of Li Mo’s letters.”

“Ah, let’s not talk about this. I get a headache just thinking about it.”

“That’s because you have a guilty conscience.”

“I was truly just concerned, especially during that period, when your mood wasn’t good, I knew it couldn’t have been easy for her.”

“Was that easy for me?”

“Hey, how did you two start quarreling?” Yang Tao’er was a bit surprised.

Guo Yuyun said, “I felt like dying back then, and you didn’t show any concern, just abandoned me as if it had nothing to do with you.”

Ye Chen was at a loss for words, filled with self-reproach, knowing full well how trying that time must have been for Guo Yuyun. It made sense that she was angry.

Yang Tao’er murmured, “I brought up Su Zhanze as a warning for you to be careful, or else you’ll end up like a sliced watermelon.”

Ye Chen looked at her and said, “I appreciate the reminder, but I still have to work with him. Without his cooperation, we can’t deal with Longhun, and when the time comes, you’ll have to help heal her.”

“Heal?” Yang Tao’er asked, puzzled.

“Of course, he was seriously injured in the battle, and probably hasn’t fully recovered. When the time comes, you’ll have to lend a hand.”

“You must be joking. How can I treat someone like him?” Yang Tao’er didn’t like Su Zhanze, especially after hearing about his deeds from Qing’er.

“You are highly skilled in medical arts. After we rescue him, of course, you have to help heal him, and the sooner, the better.”

“You should find someone else.”

“Hey, you should be more generous, and not so narrow-minded.” While saying this, he even glanced pointedly at her chest.

“You’re the one who’s narrow-minded.”

Ye Chen laughed and said, “Right now, the overall situation has to take precedence. We can’t afford to lose anymore. Once we rescue them, and Su Zhanze’s martial arts recover, the time will come for our decisive battle, so your role is crucial. When that time arrives, you must help. It’s for the Immortal Demon Domain.”

Yang Tao’er munched on the Grilled Sesame Seed Cake.

Ye Chen continued, “His personality does have serious issues, but with a formidable enemy before us, we need to unite all forces. He may want to kill me, but it doesn’t bother me; why can’t you be more open-minded?”
