Super God Grandmaster
Chapter 277 - 277 265 Flaw

Chapter 277: Chapter 265: Flaw Chapter 277: Chapter 265: Flaw Meng Yan passed a cup of wine to Ye Chen, fell silent for a moment, and said, “I really am grateful, and to be honest, I didn’t want to leave either. But then I thought it’s better not to disturb you guys so the girl wouldn’t overthink.”

“You truly are a considerate child, but I’m going to visit you often,” Ye Chen said.

“Hmm, thanks for taking care of me and being concerned about me lately. I’ll keep it in my heart, forever.” Meng Yan sat across, lifting another cup of wine.

“It’s Wei Yiling you should be thankful to. I could not have done it without her. She bought your freedom with her money. She’s the real one who saved your life.”

“Yes, I’m also extremely grateful to her. I’ll thank her personally when I take the chance.”

“As you should,” Ye Chen said.

“Alright, let’s drink to you guys who defeated the Zen Master yesterday and saved Wasteland City from disaster.”

“I’m not much of a drinker. I might behave inappropriately if I get drunk.”

“It’s just a cup of wine, it won’t affect you that much.”

“Alright then, to the restoration of peace in Wasteland City.”

“You’re the hero of Wasteland City.”

“Don’t say that, it still scares me. You don’t know, I had a dream last night, dreaming that the Zen Master’s men were coming to kill me.”

Meng Yan chuckled and replied, “Is that possible?”

“Of course. The plan to surround the Zen Master yesterday, they all said it was my idea. If the Zen Master’s men knew that the plan that surrounded them and killed so many of their people was my idea, they would want to kill me.”

“Stop scaring yourself. The people from the Zen Master had already left Wasteland City before dawn today.”

“Really?”

“Yes, Wasteland City lifted the ban early this morning.”

“Wow, they sure left fast.”

“I heard people say that something happened in Tianle City, so they had to head back.”

“Something happened in Tianle City? That can’t be true, how come I never heard of this?” Ye Chen expressed in shock.

“Hehe, you got up so late this morning, of course, you wouldn’t know anything.” Cui Mengyan said.

Ye Chen gave a mild smile and agreed, “That’s true.”

“Come on, let’s toast to the well-deserved peace attained by Wasteland City.”

Ye Chen nodded and finally started lifting his cup.

Just as he was about to drink, it seemed like he heard someone calling his name, the voice was weak but he was sure he heard it. He paused and then said, “I think someone is calling me.” He listened carefully.

“There’s nothing.” Cui Mengyan also pretended to listen carefully.

Ye Chen hesitated for a while, set out to drink, then suddenly, a voice inside him said, “Someone is calling me.”

Ye Chen heard it and paused again.

Meng Yan had already finished the wine in her cup, she looked at Ye Chen and said, “You haven’t drunk yet.”

Ye Chen replied, “You didn’t hear it? I thought I did.”

“There’s nothing. You might have just misheard. Go ahead and drink.” While they were talking, someone brought in food. Meng Yan turned around to get it.

When she turned back, Ye Chen had already put down his empty cup of wine, which meant he had finished his. Ye Chen narrowed his eyes.

“How is it? Good wine, isn’t it?”

“I don’t study wine much nor can I appreciate it, but it feels quite strong.”

“Let’s have another round then.” Meng Yan refilled Ye Chen’s cup.

Ye Chen grinned slightly and said, “Are you sure you don’t know that your cousin runs a small pub in Wasteland City? I seem to remember this pub has been open for a long time, and she wasn’t the one who owned it previously.”

“Really! It wasn’t theirs before, they bought it only after they moved in.”

Meng Yan continued, “Never mind that. This second toast is to your forever union with Ling’er.”

“Joking, right? We aren’t even engaged yet.”

“That’s just a matter of time,” Meng Yan said.

Ye Chen chuckled and replied, “Not necessarily.”

“Hey, stop thinking about it. The girl likes you, you should cherish her, don’t regret it later.”

“Hmm, I won’t regret it.”

“Don’t be too confident, be sure to cherish it when you should.”

“Of course.”

Meng Yan stood up and stated, “I hope we could drive the Zen Master’s men out of the Wastelands as soon as possible.”

“Hmm, I do too. But, I feel like this won’t be over so easily,” Ye Chen said.

“With you here, they will be driven away soon.”

“I’m not that confident.”

“Sigh, I want to thank you for taking care of me all this time.”

“Actually, I haven’t really taken care of you. You have been taking care of me all along.”

Meng Yan finished the glass of wine and said, “Bottoms up.”

Ye Chen stood up, suddenly looking extremely uncomfortable, and said, “Am I poisoned?!” The glass in his hand dropped.

Suddenly, he collapsed on the ground, unconscious.

Meng Yan ran over, squatted down, shouting Ye Chen’s name. On the other end of the street, the sound of his name being called was getting closer.

Meng Yan smirked slightly, she had been worried about not being able to take him down. She quickly closed the window’s door and called out, “Somebody!” She tried to remove the Jade Ring from Ye Chen’s neck, but at that moment, Ye Chen suddenly opened his eyes, grabbed her hand, and stood up.

Ye Chen asked, “Who are you people?”

“What’s going on? You drank our poisoned wine. How can you be fine?”

“So it was poisoned.”

She tried to pull off the Jade Ring from Ye Chen’s neck, but Ye Chen pushed her hand away.

She slashed at him with a knife, but Ye Chen lifted a chair and, with a loud smack, sent her flying backward.

“How did you know the wine was poisoned?”

“I didn’t. But you said you didn’t hear anyone calling me, yet I heard it, twice.”

“So you suspected the wine was poisoned?”

“No, it’s the waiter who served the food earlier. He has calluses on his hands, only those who frequently practice martial arts would have such calluses.”

“Is that it?”

“Forgot to tell you, a few days ago, I came here for a drink, but I know that the boss is not this madam. Yet, you said they’ve been here for half a year now.”

It turns out that earlier, Ye Chen had discreetly poured away his drink while Cui Mengyan’s back was turned.

“It seems you’re quite cautious.”

“I should thank that girl. She’s right, the people from the Zen Masters hate me terribly and want to kill me at any time. I have to be careful.” Ye Chen said, “So, you really are from the Zen Masters.”

With a swoosh, a large group of people rushed out, swords and knives flying everywhere, attacking Ye Chen.

“Heh, brought quite a number of people, huh. Truthfully, although we haven’t known each other very long, it’s also not short. I really don’t want to fight you.”

Meng Yan’s poisoned darts rained down like a heavy shower, Ye Chen blocked them with a palm strike, deflecting the incoming poisoned darts. With a shift to the left, all darts were directed towards the window, completely destroying it. Immediately causing a commotion on the street.

Ye Chen said, “I am very curious, since you want to kill me so much, why did you wait until today? Is it because I am too good looking that you can’t bear to kill me?”

“Cut the crap. Today, I’m going to make sure you don’t come back alive.” She flew upwards, drawing her two swords. Already in mid-air, like a whirlwind, she launched a fierce attack on Ye Chen.

At this point, Ye Chen’s martial arts skills had greatly improved. She was no match for him. Although at this moment, more than ten people rushed out from the other rooms, even allied against him, Ye Chen remained fearless.

Facing the crowd that was closing in on him, Ye Chen quickly launched a shockwave. With a bang, all the tables, chairs, windows and doors were shattered.

People from above started rushing down.

Meng Xiuluo launched several energy attacks consecutively but to no avail. The situation was completely under Ye Chen’s control.

Xiang Yi found Meng Xiuluo. They were still in Wasteland City and feared that they would arouse the attention of other disciples from the New City Sect. She quickly grabbed Meng Xiuluo and said, “Meng Xiuluo, we have to leave, we are no match for him. If we continue to take action, we will soon alarm other disciples from the New City Sect, and it could be dangerous.”

Meng Xiuluo seemed a little unwilling, upset for not acquiring the Jade Ring.

But she knew that they would indeed alarm the members of the New City Sect. Now was not the time to be emotional. They quickly withdrew, releasing a cloud of black smoke before jumping out of the window and onto the street.

Ling’er scattered the crowd and conducted a search. Suddenly, fighting noises distracted her attention, she immediately rushed towards the direction of the sound with a few disciples.

As a result, at the intersection, they saw Cui Mengyan bearing a sword approaching. Ling’er immediately realized and said, “You really do know martial arts and you’re from the Zen Masters, right?”

Cui Mengyan sneered.

“You’re quite good at pretending. What did you do to Ye Chen?”

“I slaughtered him and put him into a pot to boil.”

“Quick, wipe them out. These people must be the ones who set the fire yesterday.”

Meng Xiuluo was not afraid of them. How could these small fries which Ling’er brought be her opponents? The one pursuing them from behind was Ye Chen, she had no way of dealing with Ye Chen, but these ten or so people she brought in were all carefully selected. Their martial arts were excellent, and they were no match for ordinary people. In just a few moves, they knocked down the few people Ling’er brought with her.

Ling’er kept urging the people from behind to hurry up.

Meng Xiuluo’s martial arts weren’t bad either, how could Ling’er be her opponent? Seeing that more people were likely to be alerted, she decided to take a hostage. Ling’er was undoubtedly the best hostage right now. In just two or three moves, she managed to capture her. Ling’er was caught off guard.

Meng Xiuluo coldly said, “With your mediocre martial arts skills, you dare to confront me.”

Ye Chen leaped out from the thick smoke, finally pinpointing their escape direction amidst the noise of clashing swords and knives.

He quickly chased them down.
