Super God Grandmaster
Chapter 565 - 565 551 Unforgettable Forever

Chapter 565: Chapter 551: Unforgettable Forever Chapter 565: Chapter 551: Unforgettable Forever “Oh my, the big duel is tomorrow, aren’t you going to cram tonight? Why are you back so early?” Yi Mei expressed her surprise.

“Hurry up and prepare dinner.” Wan Danrong and Ye Chen walked in.

Yi Mei glanced at Ye Chen and asked, “Drunkard, have you decided where you are going to stay tomorrow night in the temple?”

Wan Danrong slapped Yi Mei’s comment away, so Yi Mei quickly shut up.

Ye Chen laughed, “Don’t be too optimistic yet. I know you all think that Ding Yunjie will definitely defeat the Miss. Everyone is waiting for me to make a fool of myself. If I make a fool of myself, it doesn’t bother me at all. However, if Ding Yunjie rises to the occasion and ends up the fool, that would be embarrassing.”

Yi Mei assigned two maids to prepare dinner, and she herself started to brew tea. She continued, “You are really dreaming. Your martial arts are good, but martial arts cannot be mastered in one or two days. You want Ronger to defeat brother Yunjie within three days? You must be dreaming.

You have to pay the price for the words you speak, or else in the future, you won’t understand the price of your bluffing.”

“Really now? I don’t really care. Originally, I am just a drunkard. I came here just for a visit, if I lose, then so be it. Your Miss is even preparing to set up a courtyard for me outside the Wan Residence in the Wanshou city. If your brother Yunjie really loses in front of so many people, he won’t be able to raise his head anymore.”

Yi Mei exclaimed in shock, “Miss, don’t tell me you really want to set up a courtyard for this drunkard. Even the old grandmaster doesn’t get such treatment.”

“She said she wanted to keep me.” Ye Chen said.

“Stop the chit-chat and go prepare the food,” Wan Danrong ordered.

Yi Mei asked: “If it’s like this, is there a difference between winning or losing?”

Ye Chen said: “There is a difference. If I win, I’ll drink at the Wan Residence, and if I lose, I’ll drink in Wanshou City.”

“You, always…!” Yi Mei was aghast; she refused to accept his nonchalant attitude.

“Unconvinced? Well, there is nothing you can do about it. I was born handsome.” Ye Chen laughed.

Yi Mei said: “Ah bah! You really have the audacity! You’ve taught our Miss nothing.”

“Your Miss wanted to be nicer to me, what can I do about it?” Ye Chen laughed.

Wan Danrong interrupted again, “Enough, I’m hungry. Go fetch some roast goose from the street.”

Hearing that, Yi Mei finally left.

This is Wan Danrong’s courtyard. These days, Ye Chen always had his dinner at Wan Danrong’s place and then returned to his own courtyard.

Wan Danrong poured a cup of tea for Ye Chen. “Don’t drink alcohol now, have some tea first. The roast goose will take a while.”

Ye Chen opened his wine pouch.

“I have figured it out, you are someone who has seen the world and experienced a lot. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to say such insightful things.” Wan Danrong said.

“Ha-ha, stop analyzing me, maybe you can’t figure me out.”

“What if I analyze you?”

“You’re really quite bored.”

“You’re afraid that I’ll hit the nail on the head and reveal things deep inside you that you can’t accept.”

Hearing this, Ye Chen cracked a smile.

“I hit the nail on the head, didn’t I?”

Ye Chen continued drinking his wine.

“These are all our family’s teas. They’re quite strong and extremely refreshing. I like this strong flavor.”

After trying a cup, Ye Chen said, “No matter how good the tea is, it all tastes the same to me.”

“Tea requires time. Only by slowly savoring it can you truly taste it. Life is the same.”

“A young girl like you always utters these profound truths. Don’t fool me, pretending I don’t understand.”

Upon hearing this, Wan Danrong chuckled.

It didn’t take long for the roast goose to return, and the food was then served one by one.

After Yi Mei laid out the meal, she and the other servants left. By now, twilight had gradually fallen, and the maids went to light the surrounding lanterns.

Wan Danrong poured a glass of wine and said, “No matter what the result is tomorrow, I’ve gained a lot from these few days of learning martial arts from you. I am thankful.”

“Ha-ha, this is just the beginning.” Ye Chen said.

“I’ve realized something, that a martial art technique is not merely what it appears to be. It has a lot of thoughts behind it. There’s no such thing as a bad technique, just people who don’t reflect on them.”

“Ha-ha, insightful.”

“Different people can bring out different effects even of the same martial arts technique. It’s just that I haven’t done well enough.”

“It’s okay, knowing you are not good enough means you are improving. The worst part is when you don’t realize your shortcomings and think you know everything – that is a killer.” Ye Chen laughed.

“I still need to study more seriously and need to think carefully to lay a solid foundation.” Wan Danrong raised her wine glass.

“Don’t drink too much. If you get drunk tonight, you might as well not compete tomorrow.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t fail you at such a crucial moment.”

“If you feel the pressure and don’t know what to do, you can try distracting Ding Yunjie by batting your eyelashes. That could be a good new trick,” Ye Chen said jokingly.

On hearing this, Wan Danrong laughed out loud.

“What I said is true. Disrupting the opponent’s concentration is a good trick. In warfare, all deception is practical.”

Wan Danrong said, “Let’s eat quickly.” She passed over a roast goose leg.

“Eat. Tonight, we should just rest well. Tomorrow, you will do as I said – compete if you should, without overthinking,” Ye Chen said.

“If I lose, will you leave Wanshou City?” Wan Danrong asked.

“I don’t know. I don’t want to dwell on it, seeing as there isn’t a need to. I now understand a truth – it’s hard for people to control the future and it isn’t the case that one can’t survive without the other.”

“Indeed.”

“So, it’s not set in stone that someone must stay in a fixed place,” Ye Chen said.

“So, will you leave?”

“I don’t know; maybe if I don’t like it, I might leave.”

“And then wander aimlessly like a drunkard.”

“Possibly.”

“Is that kind of life fun!? Is that you trying to make yourself miserable, so that the worse you live, the better you feel inside?” Wan Danrong curiously asked.

“Perhaps.” She was right; he did not want to be any better, the worse he felt, the more he could express the pain in his heart. If he were to feel better, then it would be unfair to the deceased Wei Yiling.

“In other words, it’s self-torture.”

“You don’t need to worry about me.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t let you leave the Wan Residence that easily. There’s still a contract over at my place.”

Ye Chen continued eating and drinking; the night grew deeper.

“It would have been nice if I met you earlier,” Wan Danrong said.

“Is it too late now?”

“Not really.” Wan Danrong continued: “I should introduce you to my father.”

“You’re not planning to look for a husband, are you?”

“Daydreaming.”

“Introducing a drunkard like me to your father is bound to scare him.”

Wan Danrong gave a chuckle.

“By the way, I heard that the affairs of Wanshou City mainly involve the Wan and Lin families. If the Wan family agrees, why is joining the Third Demon so complicated?” Over the past few days, Ye Chen had heard much about the players and Wanshou City.

“Didn’t I tell you before! We belong to Wei Sisan of the New City Sect. The New City Sect and the Third Demon have such a relationship of gratitude and grievances. Everyone is somewhat resistant. Although our family agrees to join the Third Demon as soon as possible, the Lin family is very resistant.”

“He doesn’t want to join?” Ye Chen suddenly became serious.

“Not quite, the Lin family likes to oppose our Wan family. Originally, the largest faction in Wasteland City was the Lin family’s but the Lin family hasn’t prospered in recent years and was surpassed by our Wan family. We became the most influential in Wanshou City. The Lin family wasn’t happy about being under us and they’ve always wanted to become the largest family in Wanshou City. But they couldn’t surpass us, so they specifically opposed us and caused trouble.”

“Don’t they care about the lives of the people in Wanshou City?”

“Not everyone can have such foresight to see that far,” Wan Danrong said.

“That’s true.”

“Anyway, we can only take it slow. Although we’re the most reputable in Wanshou City, we still need to consider everyone.”

“Things are indeed complicated.”

“Hehe, you think it’s easy to be the largest family in Wanshou City! There is a great responsibility,” Wan Danrong said.

Ye Chen nodded slightly, continuing to drink his wine, he didn’t want to dwell on it.

“Hurry and eat, there’s still a lot of delicious food.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t stand on ceremony with you,” Ye Chen said.

“My father especially needs someone with martial arts skills like you.”

At this, Ye Chen laughed and said, “Just because he needs it, doesn’t mean I have to follow him.”

“True, you still want to continue being a drunkard, wandering around like a beggar to express your inner pain.”

Ye Chen continued to eat, and before he knew it, it was already midnight.

“Alright, I won’t chat with you anymore, I need to go back and sleep,” Ye Chen said as he stood up.

“See you tomorrow.”

“Sleep early, don’t think about anything else.”

Ye Chen returned to the courtyard, everything was still, suddenly quiet. He counted on his fingers, Ling’er had already been gone for over a month. And for the past month, almost every night, he would carefully remember her, remember the afternoon she left, remember her wearing red clothes.

That day they were both so happy, he couldn’t forget. But Ling’er had already left, permanently. His eyes suddenly turned red.

It felt like she was still alive, as if she had never left.

Just as Wan Danrong said, he wanted to use self-torture to express his inner pain. Other than that, there was no other way. Because all the misfortune was caused by him.

Because he was Longhun’s brother. Longhun wanted to retaliate against him, and that’s why all this happened. It was all brought on by him, he was torturing himself.

Looking at the dark starry sky, especially in the quiet of the night, one’s thoughts would run riot.

Maybe a pair of eyes were looking at him, but he did not notice.

He really couldn’t accept how things turned out.
