Chapter 448 - 448 434 Danger is Approaching

Chapter 448: Chapter 434: Danger is Approaching Chapter 448: Chapter 434: Danger is Approaching The Dragon Slaying Clan had already made it to Unnamed City at the foot of Demon Palace City’s mountain. By tomorrow, they would reach Demon Palace City.

Slaughter Saint had persuaded the realms of monsters and demons to their cause, much to Mutant Winged Dragon’s delight. However, their forces would not arrive here until tomorrow.

He was in no rush though. At this moment, he was anticipating the arrival of something sent from Dragon Slayer Island – something that might come in handy in dealing with Demon Palace City. Despite possessing the Dragon Slayer Sword, he preferred to be thoroughly prepared.

The incidents in Turtle Mountain and Fish Scale Valley had shown his lack of enough preparation, leading to unexpected outcomes. Thus, he pledged to prevent any recurrence of such situations.

Jing Po, Slaughter Saint, and Mitra Monk walked in.

Jing Po asked, “Leader, should we wait for the forces from the monster and demon realms to arrive before we ascend the mountain?”

“There’s no rush, we’ll ascend together once they arrive.” Mutant Winged Dragon seemed calm.

“Hmm, they are rather sluggish.”

“All that matters is their arrival,” Mutant Winged Dragon said. “That’s why I had you come here tonight. I wanted to discuss our strategy for seizing the city.”

Slaughter Saint responded, “We must first break their defense system. If it remains intact, it will impede us.”

Upon hearing this, Jing Po said, “Exactly, we must use the Dragon Slayer Sword to dismantle their defense system. As soon as their defense system fails, our forces can freely enter.”

Mitra Monk added, “I suspect they won’t let us destroy their defense system easily.”

“Whether they want us to break down their defense system or not depends on whether they can stop us.”

“Anyway, I believe they must have made some preparations, and won’t let us destroy their defense system easily. Demon Palace City does have some depth. Currently, they still possess three Sacred Pearls.”

“Those three Sacred Pearls cannot resist us. There’s nothing that withstands the Dragon Slayer Sword once it regains its full strength,” Jing Po confidently stated.

Mutant Winged Dragon responded, “I’m curious to see how well they’re prepared. But let’s stay serious.”

“We will definitely destroy it,” said Jing Po.

“They’ll do whatever they can to counter me and handle the Dragon Slayer Sword in my possession. Currently, they aren’t aware of the full power of the Dragon Slayer Sword; the only one who knew, Su Hong, is dead.”

“They should be fleeing now, or else they won’t have a chance to escape.”

“I wonder if they would destroy Demon Palace City themselves,” Slaughter Saint suggested.

“Even destroying Demon Palace City won’t protect them,” Mutant Winged Dragon continued, “I believe they still want to try, and won’t give up so easily.”

Slaughter Saint added, “We have made all necessary preparations.”

“Good, we will ascend the mountain once the forces from the monster and demon realms arrive.”

After several days of rest, those who survived the battle in Fish Scale Valley had gradually recovered and were no longer panic-stricken.

Mutant Winged Dragon had already made thorough preparations.

After a few days, Ye Chen had also combined powers with Guo Mingyu and others to familiarize themselves with the Dragon Slaying Array, doing all he could do.

Regrettably, he hadn’t found the information he needed in the Books and Records Hall, but Yu Yun hadn’t given up. She was beginning to get anxious since the Dragon Slaying Clan had reached the foot of the mountain.

Aside from Ye Chen and others constantly refining the Dragon Slaying Array,

Lou Xuancheng and Ren Xiongbei were hurriedly preparing defenses. Demon Palace City was their last line of defense. If it were to fall, they would have no place to retreat. They wouldn’t know where to go next, so they were resolute about defending Demon Palace City.

If even Demon Palace City couldn’t be preserved, the celestial and demon realms would no longer have a foothold in the Central Plains.

Within the courtyard, Ye Chen was lost in thought. He had heard that the Dragon Slaying Clan had reached Unnamed City located at the foot of the mountain tonight.

Jiang Zhuge came over and said, “It is confirmed that they’ve reached Unnamed City. It seems they’re waiting for the disciples from the monster and demon realms to arrive before ascending the mountain.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen nodded. Although he seemed calm, he was very anxious inside, as he understood the implications of a loss.

Jiang Zhuge continued, “We have already done all that we could.”

“Hmm, you’ve worked hard these few days.”

“Now all we can do is wait for them to arrive.”

Just as he was saying this, and while Ye Chen was deep in thought, a weary Yu Yun walked in with some food.

“What’s wrong? Why the long faces?” Ye Chen asked, looking at Yu Yun who had slumped onto the table as soon as she arrived.

“I’ve exhausted all possibilities,” a dejected Yu Yun replied.

“Don’t be discouraged! Look again.”

“Look again!” Guo Yuyun sounded drained.

“Of course, you know the Dragon Slaying Clan is in Unnamed City now, right?”

“I know.”

“They’ll probably reach here in a day or two. There will be a war when they get here. At that time, even if you want to look further, there won’t be any time left. I’ve been struggling these last couple of days too, constantly brainstorming with your father and senior Qiao, trying to figure out this Dragon Slaying Array and coordinate our actions.”

“Did it have any effect?” Yu Yun poured herself a cup of tea.

“We’re trying our best. We have time now, and if we don’t integrate further now, when will we?”

“Can it withstand the Dragon Slayer Sword?”

“How would I know right now?” said Ye Chen.

“There you go again. I’m so frustrated!”

“I’m frustrated too, just like you. But you’re still alive right now, aren’t you? We created this situation together. If we don’t work hard, how can we face Demon Palace City and the disciples of the celestial and demon realms?”

Yu Yun knew what Ye Chen meant and let out a cold laugh.

“I didn’t intend to discuss this either, we are all working towards redemption for the mistakes we’ve made. If you think you have completed your redemption, and have done enough for the Immortal Demon Realm, then you can step aside,”

“Don’t say things just to provoke me,”

“Well, it may not sound pleasant, but what can we do? Shouldn’t we strive harder than others to have a clear conscience?”

“I know what you’re getting at, give me a few days, I will do my best, is that okay?”

“Same here, if I can go without sleep, I can keep going for seven days and seven nights, as long as I can defeat the Mutant Winged Dragon,”

“Seven days and seven nights? You would be unconscious by then,” Yu Yun replied.

“What good food did you bring?”

“I don’t know, I just brought it over,”

Ye Chen opened it, smelled the aroma of grilled sesame seed cake, and said: “It seems you really do think about me,”

“What’s the point of thinking about you, when you can’t even look at me properly,” Guo Yuyun said dejectedly.

“Who said I didn’t look at you properly? I’m very serious about you,”

“All you do is assign me tiresome tasks, and other than that, you just keep me at arm’s length,”

Ye Chen chuckled and said, “Let’s not talk about this anymore, you must be hungry, quickly eat a piece of grilled sesame seed cake. Remember to keep up the good work tomorrow, I believe we will make some discovery,”

Yu Yun coldly said: “We only have a few days left, I will keep persisting for the sake of redemption and clearing my conscience,”

“Right, that’s the spirit. In just a few more days, as long as we can defeat the Mutant Winged Dragon, everything will return to normal. You will be your lively and cute self again, and I will go back to the Wastelands,”

“So, you’re planning on going back to the Wastelands,”

“The Wastelands, it’s quite nice there,”

“Wasteland City has been reduced to ashes,”

“True, Wasteland City has indeed been turned into a sea of flames, but in my heart, it’s still there,”

“Even if you manage to rebuild it, it won’t be the Wasteland City as we knew it. Can you bring Ling’er back to life?”

“Are you intentionally trying to hurt me?”

“I’m just trying to tell you the truth,”

“I get it,”

“Then why do you still want to go back to the Wastelands?”

“Without the Wastelands, I don’t know what to do with myself. All I have right now is one thing, to give it my all and take care of what’s in front of me now,”

“You’ve already worked hard enough,”

“Working hard is still not enough!”

Yu Yun rested her head on the table. The bright moon hung in the sky above, casting its light on her,

“Stop daydreaming about marriage. Don’t worry, you will surely get married. If there’s a disciple in our New City Sect who you fancy, just let me know, I’ll sort it out for you.” Ye Chen offered, noticing Yu Yun’s zoned-out expression.

Yu Yun gave a cold chuckle and said, “Alright, you’re the one,”

“I’m unreliable, marrying me would lead to regret,”

“Is that so! I want to see if I would really regret it,”

“It seems you haven’t experienced enough hardship, and you don’t know what regret feels like,”

“Maybe, why don’t you let me experience it,”

“Let’s better not, we shouldn’t mess around with these things,”

“You little scoundrel, I think you’re less of a man than me,”

“What do you mean?” Ye Chen asked in confusion.

“What I mean is that you’re like a shy woman, always pussying around,”

“Hey, I am a genuinely macho man, marriage is not child’s play,”

“In my eyes, you’re like a woman. I am straightforward and chase after what I want, but you? You can’t let anything go, I don’t understand what you’re thinking. In two words: conflicted. Nervous and hesitant, I’m afraid you don’t even know what you want,”

Ye Chen gave a slight smile at this,

“Am I wrong? You’re scared of the wolf in front and the tiger behind, always worrying about regret. Can you compare to me!” Yu Yun declared.

Ye Chen responded, “Right, you’re the real man, happy now?”

“Be more carefree, life only lasts a few decades. If you’re always hesitating about what you want to do, when will you stop inflicting stress on yourself?”

“True, I’ve learned a lesson today,”

Yu Yun nibbled on some food, though she didn’t seem to have much appetite. She asked again, “So tell me, do you know what you want right now?”

After pondering for a moment, Ye Chen replied, “I only have one goal right now: to defeat the Dragon Slaying Clan,”

“What about after you defeat the Dragon Slaying Clan?”

“Find a place where no one knows me,”

“To commit suicide?”

“No, if I committed suicide, my mom would crawl out from under the ground to fight me,”
