Chapter 889 - 889 875 Leaving a Way Out

Chapter 889: Chapter 875: Leaving a Way Out Chapter 889: Chapter 875: Leaving a Way Out Guo Yuyun shook her head and said, “It’s not that easy of a task.”

“Are you sure you can interfere with the Sea Demon?” Guo Mingyu asked curiously.

“I’m just afraid it will get out of control, and then things will become unmanageable.”

“Like this, tomorrow, you try to figure out a way to make the Sea Demon be disturbed. At that time, we will release the power of the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array to destroy it.” Guo Mingyu was resolute in doing so; he didn’t want to delay any longer. Any more hesitation would indeed become true hesitation.

“I can’t guarantee how long I’ll be able to interfere, after all, I haven’t studied it for long.”

“However long you can interfere is good enough,” Guo Mingyu said.

“All right, I will listen to Daddy’s orders.”

“I’ve heard that the Spiritual Stone is with you.”

“Daddy wants this Spiritual Stone, but it can explode. The monkey almost blew himself up twice because of it.”

“Just give it to me.”

“Daddy, what are you going to do with it?”

“Nothing, I just want to see if it can really be used when the time comes.”

Guo Yuyun didn’t understand what her father meant.

Guo Mingyu smiled and said, “Don’t worry, your daddy still wants to live a long life. I know this Spiritual Stone has a critical value; as long as it doesn’t exceed this value, there won’t be any danger.”

Upon hearing this, Guo Yuyun handed over the Spiritual Stone to Guo Mingyu.

After taking it, Guo Mingyu asked, “You must have worried a lot about Ye Chen these past days, haven’t you?”

Guo Yuyun blushed and smiled shyly.

“Daddy knows you like him, and Daddy doesn’t oppose the two of you being together. After we settle this matter, Daddy and your mother will have a good talk with him.”

“Talk about what?”

“Of course, about things between you two.”

Guo Yuyun didn’t say anything.

“Don’t worry, we won’t scare him away.”

Guo Yuyun smiled faintly.

“If you can marry him, both your daddy and your mother will feel particularly at ease.”

“Let’s still try to find sister first. The longer she stays in their hands, the more danger she will be in day by day.”

“Of course, Daddy indeed desperately wants to find your sister and hopes she hasn’t encountered any trouble.”

“Sigh, let’s not talk about this anymore,” Guo Yuyun said as she left the room.

This time, Guo Mingyu had firmly decided to take a gamble with them. He would make a decision tonight to eliminate the Sea Demon. Without destroying the Sea Demon, it would be impossible to defeat the Dragon Slaying Clan.

Su Zhanze cursed Ren Xiongbei and felt quite relieved, but reality was in front of him. If he didn’t listen to Longhun, Longhun would kill those people; both his mother and the woman he loved would die. Yet, if he did as he was told, the people of the Immortal and Demon Realms would curse him, and he might plunge the realm into an abyss, never to recover.

What should he do? He couldn’t just not save the woman he loved, nor could he not save his mother. He didn’t know what to do, and Longhun had already told him to do it tomorrow.

He worried as he tried to find a way that could satisfy both sides, but how could he find such a method? He now understood the true purpose of Longhun: if the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array was destroyed, then there would be no power to resist the Sea Demon. The Sea Demon would become invincible, and it would be just like what happened on Dragon Slayer Island.

He didn’t know what to do, standing on the edge of a cliff. He couldn’t watch his mother die, nor could he give up on his fiancée.

He was in utter turmoil, completely uncertain if this was the right course of action.

Tomorrow, it would be a final showdown between the Yin-Yang Four Symbols Array and the Sea Demon—all hinging on tomorrow. What to do? The great demon Longhun would surely kill them. What should be done without any clue?

Outside of Immortal City, deep in the dense forest.

Day seemed reluctant to break, an oppressive slate greeted early morning without a whisper of wind, as if foreshadowing dire events. Hungry animals had already started their search for food.

Looking at the ruins of Immortal City, Ye Chen felt a heavy heart. Recalling his first visit to Immortal City, and how majestic it was then, he now saw its desolation and couldn’t help but feel pained.

His thoughts grew heavier. These people all believed in him. If he failed, the Immortal and Demon Realms would send more people over, or else the Dragon Clan would keep dragging things out, opening more Sealed Doors. Eventually, Demon Palace City might end up in the same state as Immortal City, a thought that didn’t allow him to be careless.

Fang Ziren also seemed contemplative and said, “Who would have thought that Immortal City, in good condition, would be broken twice within half a year and end up like this?” He seemed to feel it was a shame.

Looking at Immortal City, now almost a waste area, how could they not be moved?

People Ye Chen had left with him came back to report, as he wanted to make sure there were no anomalies. With no anomalies confirmed, only then could he feel at ease.

Fang Ziren said, “Since there are no anomalies and we have arrived, can we attack now?”

Ye Chen asked, “Are they still casting spells?”

The disciple behind him replied, “Yes, they have been rotating shifts through the night, essentially all casting spells.”

“That even more so proves they’re not up to anything unusual,” Fang Ziren said.

Another disciple then said, “However, they seem very vigilant and have made many preparations as if they want to construct a guard circle.”

“They are definitely doing so because they know we have returned, so they are constructing a guard circle,” Fang Ziren guessed.

Ye Chen called Li Mo and Gu Xueyun over and said, “If there really is an emergency, don’t you two be in too much of a hurry.”

“Don’t worry,” both Gu Xueyun and Li Mo responded.

Ye Chen then said, “Good, be careful and hide well.”

“Okay.”

“Alright, you can go now.”

Suddenly, only Fang Ziren and Ye Chen’s group remained.

Fang Ziren smiled and said, “Sect Leader Ye, you are too cautious. We should just go ahead and attack, surround them, eliminate them, and then seal it with the Bagua Secret Talisman.”

“It’s better to be cautious. Doesn’t caution allow a boat to sail the seas for ten thousand years?” Ye Chen continued, “Sect Leader Fang, our main mission is to seal Hell Tower.” He wanted to remind Fang Ziren not to forget this when the time came.

“Hmm, don’t worry, I won’t forget,” Fang Ziren said.

“You take care of the left side, I’ll handle the right side, let’s head towards Hell Tower,” Ye Chen had nothing more to consider, having already made all the arrangements and preparations he could think of.

Winged Dragons and Xianmo beasts were released, entering from both sides into the abandoned area, charging towards Immortal City.

This immediately alerted Elder Xi Feng.

A disciple behind him said, “They really are attacking from both directions.”

“How many Xianmo beasts are there? How many people?” Elder Xi Feng asked.

“There are seven to eight hundred Xianmo beasts, and about four hundred people.”

“More than four hundred people? That’s not right, wasn’t there a report of around six hundred people?” an assistant behind him said.

“I don’t know about that, but I didn’t find any other people.”

Ye Chen, of course, had instructed Li Mo and the others to hide well, not to be easily discovered.

“Could there be a third group of people coming from another path?”

Yet another subordinate said, “We sealed the secret tunnel that the disciples of Immortal City Sect used to escape last time, so there are only the two main routes in front, we haven’t found anyone following from behind.”

At this point, Elder Xi Feng was also somewhat surprised, but since the two groups from the Demon Domain had already attacked, reaching their defense perimeter, he asked, “Who is leading the charge from the left?”

The subordinate answered, “The left is led by Sect Leader Ye Chen from New City Sect, and on the right is Fang Ziren.”

An assistant said, “I see no reason to doubt anymore; our target is within. As long as we kill Ye Chen and wipe out these four hundred people, even if they have another two hundred, they won’t be able to make a difference.”

As the people from the Demon Domain attacked, Elder Xi Feng no longer had any doubts. He glanced at his assistant, feeling that his advice was sound, as indeed there was no point in waiting for those two hundred people to appear before acting. He promptly said, “Draw them in.”

Of course, they had to play their parts, not immediately showing they couldn’t resist. They at least had to struggle a bit. They all knew the Sect Leader of New City was a suspicious person. If any irregularities were shown, it might scare them off, and if they fled, it would thwart Longhun’s plans.

The assistant nodded.

Elder Xi Feng then said, “Get Shangguan Heiqi and the others ready, but make sure they hold their ground.”

The assistant listened and left.

Suddenly, the fight turned fierce and chaotic. Ye Chen was still very cautious. He glanced around, wary of any ambush, and checked for anything unusual.

But Elder Xi Feng was an old ginger, very familiar with Ye Chen, and he didn’t seem to be in a hurry.

Fang Ziren charged the hardest, breaking into their ranks in an instant. He encountered fierce resistance up ahead. Clearly, they were well-prepared; his group was trapped halfway and met Elder Xi Feng. The troops led by Elder Xi Feng were not to be underestimated either, and Fang Ziren found it was not going to be easy to confidently break through. He was completely blocked off.

They fought unknowingly for over half of two hours.

A subordinate next to him said, “Relying on Fang Ziren alone won’t get us close to Hell Tower; we need to go help.”

Fang Ziren’s side was asking for assistance.

Another subordinate said, “Sect Leader, could it be that we are overthinking things?”

Ye Chen glanced at him and then said, “Alright, you lead two groups to hold the passageway in the back, I’m going in.” With about a hundred men, he left more than a hundred behind. Led by the Xianmo beasts, they charged from the other side, forming a two-front assault.

An assistant next to Elder Xi Feng said, “The Sect Leader of New City Sect has come in. However, he left behind a hundred people, aiming to control the passage.”

Another subordinate remarked, “As long as the Sect Leader of New City Sect comes in, we’ll handle the situation easily.”

This was in line with Elder Xi Feng’s thinking, but he was more intent on encircling the group. He was ready, having received word from Longhun as early as when Ye Chen departed, well-prepared for what was to come. Hidden outside, he harbored a group of troops. Retaking that escape route from within wasn’t going to be easy, but blocking those guarding the exit from outside seemed not so difficult.

“Let Shangguan Heiqi and his men appear, and tell them that two hundred people might be hiding outside, yet to show themselves.”
