Super God Grandmaster
Chapter 599 - 599 585 No Choice

Chapter 599: Chapter 585: No Choice Chapter 599: Chapter 585: No Choice “I can’t go on, I really can’t,” Feng Niang whispered in his ear.

Her face had long turned ashen, merely two breaths away from death, with blood continually pouring out from her mouth.

“Please, don’t.” Ye Chen, still not fully recovered from the death of Ling’er, tried to tranfuse his internal energy into her.

Feng Niang smiled faintly, exhausting her last bit of strength to say, “There are some things you can’t avoid just because you wish to. You can’t run away from this, if you really wish for everything to settle down, you must unify the Wastelands.” His energy infusion, however, had no effect.

Ye Chen held his head in his hands, believing that everything was his fault. Perhaps if he hadn’t appeared, none of these things would have happened.

Feng Niang looked at Wan Danrong, whose eyes were already filled with tears, and said, “Rong’er, don’t cry. It’s okay. Everything will be fine.”

“It’s all my fault. If Mother hadn’t protected me, you wouldn’t be like this.”

“Even though I haven’t been your stepmother for long, I… I truly see you as my daughter!”

Feng Niang glanced at Ye Chen one last time, saying, “Take care of her for me.”

Ye Chen could only nod repeatedly, saying, “Stop talking, everything will be alright.”

“I know… I can’t avoid… my fate… anymore… You are already in the midst of it…” Her voice grew weaker and weaker.

“Stop talking.”

“I really… can’t go on… take care… of Rong’er…”

Her hand suddenly went limp, and her breath ceased.

Wan Danrong cried out, imploring, “Ye Chen, quickly imbue her with your energy, save her!”

Ye Chen wanted to save her, but no matter how much energy he used, it was in vain. Her meridians were utterly shattered. That she even survived till now was a miracle. He hugged his head, feeling as if he’d been dealt a crushing blow. Feng Niang’s final words echoed in his head.

“Please, I beg you.” Wan Danrong had lost control, cradling her stepmother in her arms.

No matter how much Wan Danrong screamed, it was useless. Ye Chen held the weeping Wan Danrong tightly, unable to utter a word.

Hu Cheng walked over, saying, “Second Manor Master, if there’s nothing else, we’ll leave first.”

The Second Manor Master quickly stood up, saying, “Yes, thank you so much. Here is some silver taels.”

“You keep it, you need it more than us.” Hu Cheng pushed away the silver in his hand.

“Thank you so much.”

“Better hurry up and leave. The Third Demon’s people won’t let you be, and this is still the No. One Heroes’ territory.” After Hu Cheng finished speaking, he turned and left.

Wan Danrong cried out, “I want to take revenge on the Lin Family father and son, I want to kill them.” In an instant, both her father and stepmother were gone. Only her uncle was left, and the impact was tremendous for her.

Ye Chen held her tightly.

He too was greatly affected by the events.

It was getting darker and darker.

Only now did Ye Chen realize what had happened. In the beginning, he thought he had lowered his guard. But it turned out that Wang Dong had exposed his whereabouts, and everything was plotted by the Lin Family father and son.

Yet no matter how it happened, these incidents began due to him. Looking at Wan Danrong, he felt an indescribable bitterness.

If not for him, the Wan Residence would not have met such a tragic fate, and Feng Niang would not have died.

The death of Ling’er left him feeling incredibly exhausted.

The death of Feng Niang made him realize one cannot escape one’s destiny.

Perhaps as Feng Niang had said, evasion is not the solution. If he wanted to end all of this, he needed to seize control in his own hands.

Wan Guangcai had some food brought to Ye Chen.

Feng Niang had already been buried.

Rong’er did not say a word. The girl he got acquainted with at the beginning, seemed so distant now.

Ye Chen didn’t know what he should say, always feeling that he owed her something.

Not just feeling, indeed he did. Originally, she was carefree and without worries. But his appearance shattered her tranquil life, and caused so many deaths. Even if he were to sacrifice his own life in exchange, the dead could not be brought back to life. He truly didn’t know how to face her.

Ye Chen met Wan Guangcai and said, “Second Manor Master, I’m truly sorry.”

“Don’t mention it, you didn’t deliberately harm us. It’s our servant who has failed us.”

“Regardless of how you view it, this started because of me. If I hadn’t appeared, the Lin Family wouldn’t have seized this opportunity, and so many people wouldn’t have died. I owe you…” As he spoke, he tried to kneel down to apologize but was held up by Wan Guangcai.

“Let’s not bring this up again. What happened, happened.”

Ye Chen really didn’t know how to face him, and asked, “Second Manor Master, what are you planning to do next?”

“I want to seek revenge on the Lin Family father and son. They caused the destruction of our family. If I don’t kill them, the deceased won’t rest in peace.”

“Right now?”

“Yes, I must personally kill this scoundrel to avenge my brother.”

“But the Lin Family has now taken control of Wanshou City.”

“It won’t happen that quickly, I have my own ways.”

“But it’s very dangerous for you to go in.”

Wan Guangcai, however, stated, “No, it’s not dangerous to go in now. That villain would never expect that I would return to Wanshou City at this time. Moreover, he can’t control Wanshou City all at once. I still have some trusted people there. They’ll help me when the time comes. I must kill this villain and avenge my elder brother, my sister-in-law, and the people that died in the Wan Residence.”

Ye Chen looked at Wan Guangcai, feeling very uneasy. He couldn’t let Wan Guangcai and these people march to their deaths in pursuit of revenge. He said, “Fine, I’ll accompany you back.”

Wan Guangcai looked at him, understanding the dangers involved, and said, “You don’t have to do this.”

“No, Feng Niang was also my friend. She died saving me. I should avenge her.” Ye Chen had already made up his mind.

“But, it’s extremely dangerous, you might not come back.”

“Didn’t you just say! Lin Wei and his men will never expect us to return for revenge at this time.”

“I can’t guarantee anything.”

“It’s okay. Whatever happens, we’ll face it together. I’ll help you then.”

Wan Guangcai listened and nodded.

“I don’t know what else to say. I really don’t want things to happen like they did today. If I could, I wouldn’t have shown up at the Wan Residence.”

“Stop talking about it. No one would want something like this to happen. We’re all victims.”

Ye Chen took a deep breath.

Wan Guangcai added, “I originally wanted you to help me take Rong’er away.” He glanced at Rong’er.

But Ye Chen retorted, “You can’t afford to get hurt now. You’re the only family Rong’er has left. She can’t bear it anymore.” He felt guilty, he couldn’t carry such a heavy burden.

It took Wan Guangcai a long while to respond, “Damned Lin Wei. I knew he was a bad person, but I didn’t expect him to be so irredeemably evil. He wiped out our family for his own selfish agenda.”

Ye Chen fell silent for a moment.

“I heard from Rong’er that you’re planning to leave.”

“Yes, I planned to leave. Originally, I was going to leave as soon as I got in touch with the people from the New City Sect, but it seems I was too late.”

“I’m afraid whether you were late or not, Lin’s father and son would have made this move nonetheless. Their ambitions are too great. They intended to harm the Wan family, and once they had the intent to harm others, they would act sooner or later.”

Ye Chen said, “Let’s talk about this tomorrow. Rest well now.” He wouldn’t let these people’s lives hang in the balance.

Wan Guangcai nodded again.

Ye Chen pondered carefully. It seemed that Wan Guangcai was prepared to proceed this way. He couldn’t allow it to happen, so much had happened because of him and many people had died. He couldn’t let them face danger again.

He should be able to succeed. He analyzed the situation, and his only concern was whether the Third Demon’s men would return. But upon thinking about it, he deemed it implausible. Who would think that he had just been rescued and was now recklessly returning to Wanshou City?

Luo Hai was a bit uneasy, after all, they had acted deceptively without informing Ming Bei. But he was still very grateful to Ming Bei, if not for him holding him back, he might have been killed in the midst of it all.

Luo Hai asked in a low voice, “Do you think they’ll go back and take revenge on Lin Wei?”

“If they knew the truth, they would seek revenge against Lin Wei. But they shouldn’t be in such a hurry, especially that kid. He just narrowly escaped death, going back for revenge now would only put himself in danger.” Ming Bei continued, “He can take his time with his revenge. That guy is after all the Sect Leader of New City Sect, he’s sure to look for his men from New City Sect. He can plot his revenge later.”

“Yes, you’re right. He just narrowly escaped death. Only a fool would rush back to take revenge. He has plenty of ways to deal with Lin Wei.”

Upon hearing this, Ming Bei said, “Let’s leave this matter alone. We have more important things to deal with.”

“More important matters?”

“The Alliance Leader has decided that we can’t let that damned Yang Jing continue expanding. We have to deal with him.”

“Didn’t you say we should wait until we’ve dealt with the New City Sect in the dark realm before dealing with Yang Jing and his men?”

Ming Bei shook his head, saying, “Plans have changed, it’s uncertain when we’ll be able to take care of the New City Sect.”

“What happened?”

“The New City Sect and the brothers from the Xue family have joined forces. They’re ganging up on Big Beard.”

“Really? Can Big Beard handle them?”

“Hard to say, that sweet potato Big Beard only knows how to chase women. He doesn’t understand the severity of matters, and missed his opportunity. He hasn’t been able to deal with the New City Sect for a month, and now the New City Sect and the Xue Family have joined forces, it’ll likely be even more difficult.”

“The Boss wants to deal with Yang Jing first, and then turn around and deal with the New City Sect.”

“It’s likely that Big Beard won’t be able to handle things. If we can settle Yang Jing quickly, turn around and focus on the New City Sect and the Xue Family brothers, that might be a good choice.”

Luo Hai listened and shook his head, saying, “I thought Xiao Bai was something special, but it turns out he’s just average.”

“Anyway, we’re on the hook to deal with Yang Jing. If we can wipe out Yang Jing and break his Ghost City, we can face the Alliance Leader with something to show. Otherwise we’re useless. The current Alliance Leader only recognizes results, not people. Even if you and I have followed him for so long, it benefits us nothing.”

“Understood.”

“Let’s team up. Together we can defeat Yang Jing and show them that we’re not just idlers. If we don’t show some results, we might lose our standing.”

“It’s a pity that the damned kid got away.”

“Indeed. I don’t know how he escaped.”
