Chapter 423 - 423 409 Give It a Shot

Chapter 423: Chapter 409: Give It a Shot Chapter 423: Chapter 409: Give It a Shot Jiang Zhuge thought for a moment, then said: “Mutant Winged Dragon has guessed that you’ve come up with a way to go through Fish Scale Valley, and thought of a way to shake them off.”

Ye Chen immediately said, “Yes, exactly, he guessed I figured out a way through Fish Scale Valley. But we all know that there’s a very dangerous part of the route in Fish Scale Valley. We could potentially encounter a large attack of Winged Dragons there, be likely stuck halfway, and might not pass for one or two days.”

“So what does that tell us?” Can Mo queried.

“Our current plan to go through Fish Scale Valley, in his eyes, must mean I have envisioned a plan. Otherwise, we wouldn’t go to Fish Scale Valley.”

“Then, what does he think your plan is?”

“Perhaps it’s a plan to shake them off, creating time for us to pass.”

Jiang Zhuge said: “So what you mean is, we need to act with our plan of passing through Fish Scale Valley and shaking them off as our priority.”

Can Mo, you should take a few tips from Jiang Zhuge,” Ye Chen suggested.

Jiang Zhuge declared, “We must now confuse them, ensure that they don’t guess that we have alternate intentions at Fish Scale Valley.”

“Exactly, seems like we’re getting more in sync.”

“We lure them here, without arousing their suspicion to let them come to us enthusiastically.”

“We are all clever people, it’s all laid bare now. He knows I am paranoid and would only choose the most probable option to proceed. Therefore, if we don’t act, he would sooner or later find out something is amiss. We must act, without raising his suspicions, intercept them, and try to widen the gap.”

Can Mo listened and responded, “Why is it so complicated?”

“It’s because you’re simple-minded,” Ye Chen retorted.

“I am simple-minded? It’s you who are making it complex. I don’t even know what you guys are talking about now.”

Jiang Zhuge advised, “Then we’ll proceed as they have guessed.”

“Right, we’ll have to act according to their assumptions.” Ye Chen affirmed.

“Then I’ll discuss with Guo Mingyu and the rest.”

Can Mo asked, “Ye Chen, what are you usually thinking about in your mind?”

“What do you mean?” Ye Chen inquired.

“No wonder there’s a beautiful girl by your side and you didn’t even notice. It seems all your thoughts are concentrated on solving problems.”

“You’re really nosy.”

“It’s not being nosy. Ling’er is gone and she’s been gone quite a while. We know the feelings you had for Ling’er. But there are some things you need to let go, to start anew. We all hope you’ll find someone to take care of you.”

“You think I have the mental state to think about this now?”

“Hey, it’s not like that. You have to handle your tasks, and think about your lifelong matters too. Do you really intend to stay single for your entire life!”

“Haha, have you guys all teamed up from the start to brainwash me?”

“What? Who’s brainwashing you? I’m not here to brainwash you. I’m just telling you what’s in my heart.”

“Everyone says the same thing, but I really want to ask you, do you think I am suitable with that girl?”

Can Mo glanced at him, thought for a moment, and said, “She’s somewhat unconventional, but she treats you well, and she’s very beautiful. On top of that, she’s the daughter of the Demon Palace Master.”

“I really admire you. You, a man of your years, why are your judgments so off? You’ve lived so many years in vain. That girl is indeed skilled. She somehow got so many people to vouch for her.”

Can Mo, completely oblivious to Ye Chen’s intentions, asked, “What do you mean, Sect Leader?”

“To see us as a couple. Isn’t that bizarre enough?”

Ye Chen walked away.

Li Mo found Yu Yun, seemingly fearful of Ye Chen seeing them, and acted a bit sneakily.

“What’s wrong?” Yu Yun asked.

“What happened between you and our Sect Leader? He seems very angry,” Li Mo said.

“What could have possibly happened between him and me?”

“You should stop scheming. Our Sect Leader, his mind, isn’t one that an ordinary person can deceive. Even Mutant Winged Dragon is no match for him, this little trick of yours, he can see through it with a single glance.”

“I didn’t do anything, how did I become ‘deceptive tricks’?”

“I think, Sect Leader really isn’t interested in you. He’s not a man that can be won over with just beauty.”

“I never thought of conquering him with beauty.”

“Well, that means our Sect Leader really isn’t interested in you, this ‘familiarity breeds fondness’ strategy, has no use on you guys.”

Yu Yun gave a cold laugh, and stated, “You’re giving up so quickly.”

“It’s not giving up. I genuinely can’t help you. Moreover, he said that he would make things difficult for me if I don’t give up.”

“Alright, I get it. I didn’t really expect you to help anyway.”

“In my opinion, the best plan would be to make a move first, steal a march.”

“Do you want me to make a move first on your Sect Leader, or do you want him to make a move first on me?”

“I reckon he wouldn’t make a move first. You should find a way yourself to make the first move.”

“You really dare to dream.”

“If a soft approach doesn’t work, then we must try a hard one.”

“Is this how you usually deal with girls?” Yu Yun asked.

“Who said that? I’m giving you suggestions. If you can somehow manage to get Ye Chen drunk, then it’s possible.” Li Mo answered.

“Does your sect leader drink alcohol?”

Li Mo shook his head and said, “Since Ling’er got into trouble, he hasn’t drunk alcohol.”

“Well, you still plan to get him drunk.”

“Sigh, you should figure out some way on your own. That’s all I can think of, I can’t come up with any brilliant ideas.”

“Alright, got it.”

“He has a lot on his plate right now, his head is filled with thoughts of how to bring down his father, so it’s normal for him not to have energy for anything else.”

“Sometimes I doubt if he is even normal.”

Li Mo asked, “What do you mean?”

“Does he actually like women?”

“How could that be? He likes our Ling’er. How could he possibly not like women?”

“Your Ling’er, what are her strengths, can you tell me?”

“Strengths, she has many. She is more beautiful than you, more mature than you, and understands people better than you.”

Yu Yun’s eyes got wider and wider, and she exclaimed, “You think I’m immature? Ugly?”

“Relatively.” Li Mo pondered a bit.

“You bastard.”

“Really, it’s not obvious.”

“Enough. Go away, I’ll figure it out myself.”

After Ye Chen and Jiang Zhuge discussed, Jiang Zhuge told Guo Mingyu about Ye Chen’s ideas. Guo Mingyu immediately agreed, believing that Ye Chen’s consideration was correct. They must take action, otherwise, the naturally suspicious Mutant Winged Dragon might discover something.

That night, they decided to have a good discussion.

Guo Mingyu told Ye Chen, “Lou Xuancheng and Jiang Ouyang, along with a thousand men, are heading towards Fish Scale Valley. I estimate that they will arrive by tomorrow morning. We can plan accordingly.”

Qiao Fanfeng said, “You’re right. Their arrival is an unexpected advantage. But now the more important thing is, how do we lure them into the encirclement?”

Guo Mingyu said, “Exactly, we need to cause some commotion. If there is no movement, the Mutant Winged Dragon will become suspicious.”

Ye Chen asked, “How do you think we should make a move?”

Guo Mingyu believed that Ye Chen must have a plan, otherwise he wouldn’t have shared these thoughts today at noon, he said, “I trust that you must have ideas. Share your thoughts and we’ll listen. We’ll see if there’s anything needing suplementing, and then we can discuss further.”

Qiao Fanfeng chimed in, “Don’t play riddles with us anymore. You must have a plan.”

Zhan Ze on the other side, remained silent.

Ye Chen finally spoke, “Actually there is no better plan. Some of us will distract them, while others head towards the mountain, making the Mutant Winged Dragon believe that we want to reach the mountain first, forcing them to come over. When the people on the mountain return, I believe by then, Mutant Winged Dragon’s men will appear in front of us.”

Qiao Fanfeng said, “Then at that time, we will attack from both sides and along with the people descending from the mountain, we will encircle them.”

“Yes, exactly. That’s my thought.” Ye Chen said.

“Alright, let’s do this. Starting from tomorrow, we’ll take action. I will be responsible for distracting them, you guys hide in the mountains.” Qiao Fanfeng said.

But Ye Chen declined, “No, the Mutant Winged Dragon won’t believe that because you can’t handle him, only I can hold him off for a few moves.”

Hearing this, Guo Mingyu said, “Well, Ye Chen is right. Let me and Ye Chen handle the rearguard. You guys hurry on until the Mutant Winged Dragon turns to face us, then you can regroup.”

Ye Chen continued, “When you guys circle back, they will think we are ready for a decisive battle in Fish Scale Valley, Then, we can use the erratic forces on the mountain. At the right time, they will emerge.”

“Fine, we’ll do it this way, using their plan against them. I’m looking forward to seeing if they are as lucky as they think.” Qiao Fanfeng said.

Ren Xiongbei said, “Even if we can’t kill all of them here, it will severely injure them.”

Fang Ziren commented, “Yeah, if this works out, it would be perfect. I absolutely agree.”

“Do you think it’s feasible?”

Fang Ziren asserted, “Of course it is feasible. It must be feasible. The Mutant Winged Dragon will definitely walk right into our trap. They will definitely mistake us for trying to control the top of the mountain. By then, they will definitely try to block the group of us in the rear, exactly as we planned, leading them into our encirclement.”

“Don’t be so confident before we’ve even started.” Haotian said.

“If there are any better suggestions, they can be brought up. We can adjust. It’s completely possible.” Ye Chen said, fearing that he might have overlooked something.

But after their discussion and debate, the overall plan didn’t change much. Only minor adjustments were made and it was soon finalized. Basically, it followed Ye Chen’s plan.

The girl was dazing out. This guy was really something. One moment a trick, next a scheme. Even craftier than her old man.

“Why are you daydreaming?” Ye Chen pushed her hard. Everyone else had dispersed, but she stood as if possessed, not moving at all.
