Chapter 435 - 435 421 Do You Want Me to Be Your Stepmother

Chapter 435: Chapter 421: Do You Want Me to Be Your Stepmother? Chapter 435: Chapter 421: Do You Want Me to Be Your Stepmother? Mutant Winged Dragon nodded, his eyes sparkling as they settled on the Dragon Slayer Sword, his confidence instantly returning.

Slaughter Saint said, “I can convince them. I’m certain I can persuade them.”

Mutant Winged Dragon looked at Slaughter Saint, highly confident in his abilities, and said, “Tell Gao Ba, as long as he comes here to help in the decisive battle, I’ll immediately return the Black Demonic Spirit to him. Everything else can be negotiated.”

Mitra Monk said, “If we can first convince Gao Ba and then Sheng Kong, there’s a possibility. We must make them realize that we can indeed break into Demon Palace City.”

Jing Po added, “Let’s see what these fellows have to say now.”

Mutant Winged Dragon said, “Jing Po, don’t concern yourself with what these people say.” At this time, nothing was more important than breaking into Demon Palace City.

Slaughter Saint said, “I’ll set off immediately to find Gao Ba.”

“Good, all terms can be discussed.” Mutant Winged Dragon must defeat the Demon Domain.

Mitra Monk said, “We just went through a major battle and need to rest.”

“Hmm, have the people from the Demon Domain passing by?” Mutant Winged Dragon asked.

Meng Xiuluo responded, “The people from the New City Sect were the last ones.”

“You’re always the one with a solution.”

“Not really, if I had obtained the Jade Ring the last time, we wouldn’t have run into so many problems, and so many wouldn’t have died.” Meng Xiuluo replied, blaming herself.

Jing Po said, “It’s always Miss Meng who has the solutions. Why didn’t we think about the Jade Ring?”

“Hehe, it was by chance. I happened to run into them in the forest and came up with this plan. If you guys were there, you would have done the same.”

“Alright, everyone rest well. Once we’re rested, we’ll figure out how to cross Turtle Mountain,” Mutant Winged Dragon stated.

It was midday by the time Ye Chen reached the top of the mountain. They planned on resting a bit before descending.

Guo Mingyu and the others had already gone down the mountain long ago.

Ye Chen and his companions were the last group.

Under a big tree, those who were supposed to prepare food did so.

Ye Chen was drenched in sweat.

Looking down the mountain at the lush green trees, the cicadas began their crazy chorus, starting chaotically and then gradually gaining rhythm, although it was still the same few lines of song.

A flock of orioles busily took advantage of the cicadas singing, seizing the opportunity to look for food to fill their stomachs.

Ye Chen sat quietly beneath the tree, looking at the forest below. The sun shone from overhead, and occasionally, a cloud would pass, casting a brief shadow.

He had to think about what to do next, but he didn’t understand the power of the Dragon Slayer Sword and didn’t know the resistance of Demon Palace City. How should he proceed? He had to think about it.

Perhaps Su Hong would have known, but he was already dead. Ye Chen felt lost, understanding that he had made a huge mistake. How could he make up for his errors? And what would the price be?

Li Mo came over with roast chicken.

Ye Chen said, “Give the roast chicken to the girl.”

“She’ll come over in a while.” Li Mo left the roast chicken and went away. Sure enough, in a short while, Yu Yun came over as if she had forgotten what had happened that morning.

When Ye Chen saw Yu Yun coming up from the forest below, he said, “You were caught once. Aren’t you afraid to go into the forest alone again? If you’re caught again, I won’t have anything to trade.”

Yu Yun retorted, “You’re still harping about this? I thought you had forgiven me, but it seems you hold a grudge.”

“Next time you’re caught, it could be by some strange creature in the woods. If you encounter a venomous snake, get ready to live alone in the forest,” Ye Chen coarsely replied.

Yu Yun looked quite angry.

“Do you think I’m joking with you?”

“So, should I have to call out to you for company whenever I need to relieve myself? Shall we inseparably stick to each other?”

The two apprentices behind overheard the conversation and laughed. One of them said, “That’s right, let Ye Chen accompany you. It’ll surely be the safest. He should never lose sight of you.”

Ye Chen glared at him and said, “Are you too idle? Do you want me to find some work for you?”

The apprentice quickly lowered his head and moved aside.

Yu Yun walked up to them.

Ye Chen was somewhat embarrassed.

Ye Chen asked Guo Yuyun, who was about to eat the roast chicken, “Did you wash your hands?”

“Do you need to tell me that? What do you take me for, you can sleep for several days and nights without bathing.”

One of the men asked, “You know that Ye Chen hasn’t bathed for several days and nights?”

“You can smell it, right? That strong smell of butter, it attracts insects.”

“Then why are you still so close to me?” Ye Chen responded defensively.

Ignoring him, Yu Yun continued to eat the roast chicken.

Although Ye Chen was somewhat upset, he was also hungry and had no choice but to eat.

Yu Yun said, “You still insist that it’s not my fault, but you’re blaming me now.”

Ye Chen explained, “I’m not blaming you. I’m just worried you might run into trouble again.”

With a sarcastic laugh, Yu Yun said, “Like hell I believe that. Your heart is tiny.”

“Who dares say my heart is small?”

“Your heart isn’t that big.”

“Well, how can anyone be as generous as your brother-in-law?”

“Hehe, so you like comparing yourself to others. My sister is still in your heart.”

“I just wanted to make a point.”

Guo Yuyun laughed coldly, “Obviously, it’s your own problem, but you always blame others.”

“Alright, I’m done talking, happy now?” Ye Chen said.

“You might stop talking, but I know that’s how you really feel. You think I’m a burden.”

“Hey, you’re not a burden. I was wrong, alright? I’m really sorry, okay?”

“But you’re still thinking that.”

“No matter how much I try to explain, it won’t be clear enough if you keep thinking that way. What else can I do?”

“You don’t need to explain. What you said earlier just proved that’s what you’ve been dwelling on.”

Ye Chen was left speechless.

“Cat got your tongue?”

“You win.”

“Heh, can’t come up with a reply, huh?”

“Let’s just eat. I don’t know if they’ll climb the mountain. If one of them returns and catches you…” Ye Chen said.

“What good would capturing me do?” Yu Yun continued, “Force you to kill yourself?”

Ye Chen fell silent for a moment.

“Would you kill yourself?”

“You’re really overthinking this. Things aren’t at the point where I’d need to kill myself over you.”

Yu Yun simply said, “I know.”

Li Mo came over and asked, “Are you fighting again?”

“Anything new?” Ye Chen asked.

“Nothing significant. They’ve headed west, likely planning to cross over from Turtle Mountain. Guess they’ll need a break to recover.”

“They aren’t leaving Central Plains, are they?” Yu Yun asked.

“Why would they? Now that they’ve got the Jade Ring, they’ve figured out how to take down the Demon Palace City Defense System. There’s no way they’d give up that easily,” Li Mo explained.

“They’ve thought of a way to take down our Demon Palace’s defense system. They did suffer some losses yesterday, but there’s still a chance. If they ally with the demon and monster realms again, they could succeed,” Ye Chen speculated.

“The demons and monsters, haven’t they left already?” Yu Yun asked.

Ye Chen said, “They might have left, but they could also come back.”

Li Mo agreed with Ye Chen’s point of view, “Exactly. The Mutant Winged Dragon now possesses the Dragon Slayer Sword. He can take down the Demon Palace City’s Defense System. After struggling to mobilize such a large-scale invasion of Central Plains, how could they possibly give up so easily.”

“So they will definitely head for Demon Palace City.”

“They have no reason not to go to Demon Palace City. Even though their numbers have diminished, they now possess the rejuvenated Dragon Slayer Sword. We can’t estimate its power just yet. The question is whether Demon Palace City can figure out how to counteract the Dragon Slayer Sword. Otherwise, no matter how many of us there are, it won’t make a difference. The Dragon Slayer Sword will unite them once again,” Li Mo analyzed.

“Even Li Mo has become so smart,” Yu Yun noted.

“Only you would be so foolish,” Ye Chen remarked.

Li Mo chuckled and continued, “The people from the demon and monster realms might also participate.”

“How did things even come to this?” Yu Yun wondered.

Ye Chen said, “That’s why I told you not to celebrate too soon.”

“What have I been celebrating too soon about?” She glanced at Ye Chen, knowing he was about to tease her again.

Ye Chen quickly said, “I didn’t mean anything by that remark.”

Yu Yun snorted and ignored him.

“Right now, no one knows what the situation will turn into. But it’s not in our favor. Ye Chen initially held his own against the Mutant Winged Dragon because he had the Jade Ring aiding him. Now that the Jade Ring is gone, and most crucially, it has rejuvenated the Dragon Slayer Sword, the power balance has tipped even further,” Li Mo explained.

“There has to be a way,” Yu Yun insisted urgently.

“Let’s hope we find a solution. Otherwise, we’ll be defeated by them,” Li Mo pessimistically remarked.

Ye Chen called out, “Enough, let’s get ready to descend the mountain.”

Yu Yun fell into deep thought. Looking at Ye Chen, his expression remained unchanged, but Li Mo’s words had made perfect sense, and her worry was escalating. By now, she could not think of anyone who was stronger than Ye Chen in the realm of immortals and demons.

Yu Yun slapped Ye Chen’s hand, shocking him. She shouted, “I told you not to give her the Jade Ring. Why wouldn’t you listen?”

Ye Chen recoiled and said, “Hey, you’re blaming me now?”

Yu Yun sighed heavily and asked, “What should we do?”

“How would I know?” Ye Chen replied.

“How did this happen? If the realm of immortals and demons loses because of me, I’ll be devastated.”

“Heh, see if the Mutant Winged Dragon needs a woman. You could offer yourself to him and buy us some time. You could even steal back the Jade Ring like my mom did.”

“So you want me to play the role of your stepmom?”

A lightbulb went off in Ye Chen’s head, “That’s perfect! I need a stepmom. From now on, I’ll just call you stepmom.”

A heavy foot kicked his way. Yu Yun angrily said, “Your father, that man, even he wants to kill you now. Can’t you see how much he hates the people of the realm of immortals and demons?”

Ye Chen leaned back and stared at the sky. Lost in thought, he began to daydream.

“Aren’t you full of ideas? Think of a solution.”

“What should I think of?”

“Use your imagination.”

“Let’s send you to negotiate.”

“You should be the one to negotiate.”

“Me? I don’t have that ability. Such a monumental task should be given to you,” Ye Chen suggested.
