Chapter 844 - 844 830 Bad News

Chapter 844: Chapter 830: Bad News Chapter 844: Chapter 830: Bad News Ye Chen had not yet woken up when he was awoken by a ruckus, summoned by Guo Mingyu who sent someone to call for him. Ye Chen was still somewhat surprised and didn’t know what had happened.

All he heard was his subordinate saying, “The Dragon Slaying Clan is planning to attack Immortal City, my master needs you to hurry over for a discussion.”

Having heard that, Ye Chen thought he must be dreaming—how could things escalate so quickly? He couldn’t quite believe it. Surely, Longhun wouldn’t attack Immortal City so soon; they hadn’t left Kunlun Mountain that fast, so how could they possibly be attacking Immortal City already? It was obviously impossible.

While he thought this, the messenger was insisting that the news was real and not to be doubted. Hurriedly, he got dressed and went downstairs. Guo Mingyu had summoned a large number of leaders, and it was only then that Ye Chen learned the Dragon Slaying Clan had been prepared for a while, with over two thousand people pressing towards the Immortal City Sect, bringing a horde of monsters with them.

Demon Palace Master Guo Mingyu said, “It seems they have been preparing for some time.”

Sect Leader Guan Yi of the Withered Leaf Sect said, “Longhun has only just left Kunlun Mountain, and they haven’t even left as quickly as us. How could they organize an attack on Immortal City Sect so soon? It’s too quick.”

Guo Mingyu said, “It’s probably a contingency plan; Longhun had prepared for both outcomes. One was to have the Raging Wolf Clan take down the Immortal City Sect, and the other was for the Dragon Slaying Clan to attack, with the Sect Leader Mitra Monk leading the charge against Immortal City.”

“Dammit Fang Ziren, what the hell is going on?”

Talking about this now was useless. Guo Mingyu said, “What’s important now is to hurry to Immortal City to help.”

Song Zheng’an said, “But can we make it on time? They came prepared and must have anticipated that we would likely rush to help.”

“We must try; we can’t just watch as Immortal City falls.”

With no other options and the situation clearly dire, everyone knew the Immortal City Sect was exhausted and probably couldn’t withstand the assault. Yet, Guo Mingyu could not simply watch Immortal City fall.

Guo Mingyu then said, “Hopefully, they can hold out for two days; we’ll get there as fast as we can.”

Ye Chen looked at Guo Mingyu, silently pondering something—probably just as Guo Mingyu had said, all of this had been arranged. Longhun liked to operate this way, always making contingency plans. Since a war was imminent, why not seize the opportunity to take down the Immortal City Sect? He guessed that the Immortal City Sect was already in grave danger.

Guo Mingyu looked at Ye Chen, without many ideas himself, and it seemed there was only one option. He said, “Ye Chen, take that girl and go find Divine Doctor Zhu.”

Ye Chen said, “I can help.”

Guo Mingyu, however, said, “If I can get there in time, even without you, I can hold them off. But if I can’t make it there in time, even if you come, you won’t be much help.”

Ye Chen had nothing more to say.

“That’s the way it is. Take the girl and find Divine Doctor Zhu, while we try to get there as quickly as we can.”

Xuan Wen said, “Yeah, I’ll go and help too.”

Ye Chen did not know what to say.

Guo Mingyu said, “The girl’s situation can’t be delayed. You should hurry and take her to Divine Doctor Zhu. If I can make it there, even without you, we’ll be able to hold them off. Rest assured, I believe other sects will also try to rush over as quickly as they can.”

Ye Chen said, “Alright, if anything happens, let me know right away.”

“Of course, let’s keep in touch.”

Suddenly, Ye Chen took out a ring from his bosom and said, “This ring from the Wolf King.”

“It’s better to leave it in your care. With the situation unfolding like this, I can’t destroy it anyway. To destroy the ring, we have to take it one step at a time.”

Ye Chen understood Guo Mingyu’s intention.

Guo Mingyu said, “It’s clear the situation is extremely urgent. The Dragon Slaying Clan came prepared. We can’t really blame Fang Ziren. They have ways to bypass and deceive him, and they had plenty of time—it’s not a matter of one or two days. Blaming him is of no use now.” He of course knew the gravity of the scenario; if the Dragon Slaying Clan took down Immortal City, they would certainly target Demon Palace City next, and the situation would become dire.

Ye Chen was at a loss for words.

“Ah, it is what it is, let’s just hurry over as much as we can.” Guo Mingyu sighed deeply. He had thought that by having Fang Ziren monitor them, they could have been kept in check. But now with this development, especially at a time when the Immortal City Sect had just been besieged by the Raging Wolf Clan, suffering substantial damage, it seemed all too likely that this new crisis would be too much to handle—it felt as though everything was part of someone else’s calculations.

Suddenly, Guo Yuyun emerged, having learned on the road that the Dragon Slaying Clan was going to attack the Immortal City Sect, and she too was stunned. She had thought about planning their attack on the Dragon Slaying Clan upon her return, but it appeared the Dragon Slaying Clan had made the first move.

Guo Mingyu stood up and said, “Yu Yun, you and Ye Chen, take Rong’er and go find Divine Doctor Zhu.”

Guo Yuyun understood and nodded slightly.

Guo Mingyu continued, “Ye Chen, you should still take your people with you.”

“No need. Let them go help you. I don’t need to bring so many people to find the physician.”

“We won’t miss those few men. You should just go find the physician, and I will let you know if there’s anything.” Having said that, he already turned and left.

Ye Chen returned to the inn he had been staying at and immediately called over Ling Bo and Li Mo to share the news he had just learned.

Ling Bo said, “It appears that everything has been arranged by Longhun.”

Ye Chen thought so too.

Li Mo said, “If that’s the case, it’s likely that the people of Immortal City Sect won’t be able to hold out.”

Ye Chen shook his head and said, “We don’t know yet, but we can’t give up just like that. So, Ling Bo, take our men and follow Guo Mingyu.”

Upon hearing this, Ling Bo nodded and said, “So, you’re taking the girl to find the physician?”

“Yes, the resentful spirit on the young girl hasn’t been there for very long, but we can’t delay; if things go wrong, she might never be free from it. I must take her to find the Divine Doctor,” he said.

Ling Bo nodded slightly and said, “Alright, I will follow Guo Mingyu and the others to Immortal City as fast as I can.”

Ye Chen said, “Then be careful, and contact us promptly if anything happens.”

Ling Bo glanced at Li Mo and said, “Li Mo, take good care of the Sect Leader. I’ll choose some subordinates for you.” Then he took Li Mo and went downstairs.

At this time, Ye Chen still hadn’t eaten anything. Xuan Si came over, her eyes brimming with watery brightness as she looked at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen approached, feeling genuinely hungry. He hadn’t eaten anything before rushing to see Guo Mingyu and had just returned. They had ordered a lot of delicious food.

Guo Yuyun knew Xuan Si would definitely be reluctant to leave.

Ye Chen said, “Xuan Si, you better not follow your Shishu to Immortal City.”

“Then shall I go with you?” Xuan Si asked, glancing at Guo Yuyun.

Ye Chen replied, “You’ll have to ask Yun’er about that.”

“No one said you desperately wanted her to come with us, nor did anyone call you hypocritical.”

Ye Chen, with his head down eating, said, “This food is really delicious, just wonderful. It must have been Xuan Si who chose this; she knows exactly what I like.”

Guo Yuyun snorted coldly and said, “You and Xuan Si have only known each other for a few days, and she already knows your taste.”

“It’s possible, you know, like when a turtle finds its match, it’s for life.”

“So have you two found a match?”

“No, it’s you and I who have done that.”

“You’re the turtle.”

Ye Chen chuckled and fell silent for a while, his heart unavoidably filled with worry.

Xuan Si asked, “Ye Chen, do you think we can make it in time?”

“It’s difficult; it’s clearly a strategic move laid out by Longhun.”

Xuan Si, puzzled, muttered, “A strategic move?”

Guo Yuyun seemed to understand and said, “Of course, Longhun’s original plan was to use the Raging Wolf Clan to wipe out the Immortal City Sect, and then to control the Raging Wolf Clan and rule over the human world. But then he thought, what if they fail?”

Xuan Si looked at Guo Yuyun half understanding, half not.

Guo Yuyun continued, “They knew that if they failed, the Immortal and Demon domains would surely join forces against the Dragon Slaying Clan. The Dragon Slaying Clan has taken a step ahead in this battle between the Immortal and Demon domains.”

“So that means, Immortal City is in danger?”

“Possibly, but it’s uncertain right now; we can only hope they can hold their ground.” Guo Yuyun said, though she couldn’t quite articulate the reason, her heart was filled with concern.

Ye Chen added, “Girl, you better not go. If you do, you won’t be much help, and those pirates might just capture you and take you back as their brides.”

Xuan Si looked at Ye Chen.

“I’m telling the truth here.”

“So should I go with you?”

Guo Yuyun didn’t say anything, and Ye Chen, lowering his head, continued to eat.

“I know, I understand,” said Xuan Si.

Xuan Wen ran over and called out to Xuan Si.

Xuan Si responded, “I’ll be right there,” and left.

Xuan Wen then departed.

“Alright then, take care of yourselves. We’ll meet again in the future. I won’t be your stumbling block anymore. You two have decided to be together. Following you around feels uncomfortable and is hardly satisfying.” Xuan Si stood up.

“Hey, don’t just rush ahead and be reckless,” Ye Chen called out.

“I know,” Xuan Si said, taking Xuan Hong with her as they left.

Ye Chen watched her leave, his eyes almost falling out of his head in dismay.

“You better hurry up and run after her for a farewell kiss,” Guo Yuyun suggested.

Ye Chen quickly lowered his head again and continued eating.
