Chapter 191 - 191 183 Whether Human or Ghost

191: Chapter 183: Whether Human or Ghost 191: Chapter 183: Whether Human or Ghost “Hehe, since it’s the vice-president position, it doesn’t matter, Brother Chen has to treat us to a meal!” Liu Momo giggled.

“Li Wen and Qianqian keep talking about it every day, they want you to treat them to a big meal.

If they find out you’ve been promoted, you definitely won’t be able to skip this dinner.”

“No problem, if I can’t skip it, then I can’t skip it!” Ye Chen chuckled.

“Worst comes to worst, I’ll just treat them!”

The two laughed and joked, busy until midnight.

By the time they packed up, it was twelve at night.

Liu Momo was busily happy; usually, at this time, she would have been sleepless and tired, but today, she didn’t feel tired at all.

Instead, she felt like time was too short.

From one meeting to another parting.

“Ye Chen, why don’t you…

come to my place to rest?” It was the first time Mrs.

Liu extended such an invitation to Ye Chen.

Liu Momo felt delighted inside; it seemed like her mom was finally accepting Ye Chen in her heart.

Ye Chen quickly shook his head and said, “Mrs.

Liu, I’m afraid I can’t tonight.

How about I visit you in person another day?”

“Hehe, sure!” Mrs.

Liu nodded her head, tidied up a bit, and after everything was neatly packed and tied with ropes, she called out, “Momo, let’s go!”

“Okay!” Liu Momo snuggled in Ye Chen’s arms for a moment, then hopped onto the tricycle.

Liu Momo’s movements were as graceful as a lovely little butterfly, and she resembled an adorable elf.

She waved her arms toward Ye Chen and said, “Brother Chen, good night!”

“Momo, good night!” Ye Chen stood still, waving back at Liu Momo.

A simple goodnight carried all their feelings for each other, just like that classic line from ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button’: Benjamin, good night!

One goodnight embodied all the feelings between them.

The street was filthy and disorderly, but Liu Momo’s barbecue stall was the only spot that was clean because they always made sure to sweep up their area before leaving.

Ye Chen smiled and then got into his little Oto, did a U-turn, and swiftly left the scene, stepping on the gas only to find that no matter how hard he tried, it wouldn’t budge.

“Damn car, I’ll give it a major overhaul sometime and install the engine I won last time.

Hehe!” Ye Chen bragged for a while; that powerful engine was still being maintained in Young Master Wei’s garage.

The car had not gone far when it passed through a quiet lane.

It was deep into the night and not a soul was in sight.

There were rarely cars or people on this stretch of road, and the deep silence of the night made it even more desolate.

Ye Chen immediately sensed an unsettling presence, and his sensitive nerves were on the highest alert.

“Not good!” Just as he was pondering the danger, a dark shadow suddenly leaped out.

Ye Chen couldn’t brake in time, and the little Oto hit it at a speed of fifty miles per hour with a loud crash.

The car stopped, but the front was now a deformed mess.

Even the hood was twisted at an odd angle.

Ye Chen hurried out of the car, wanting to see what cat or dog he had hit—shit, crossing the road and asking for death.

After Ye Chen got out of the car, he regretted it immediately; there was nothing in front of the car, not even a drop of blood.

A chill swept through, and the darkness seemed to reach out two claws, grabbing toward him.

Ye Chen gasped and stood frozen, thinking, “Shit, did I just encounter a supernatural event?

But that can’t be right; there are no ghosts in this world.

So why the hell did I run into one?” Just then, Ye Chen felt a bad premonition and dodged swiftly.

An instinct told him something dangerous was coming.

Swoosh…

A flash of cold light nearly skimmed past Ye Chen’s neck.

He was almost decapitated by the blade.

Ye Chen stared in shock at the man in the Facebook mask behind him and asked, “Fuck, are you human or ghost?

If you’re human, at least make a freakin’ sound.

If you’re a ghost, then…

then I’ll run!”

“Hmph, someone paid for your life, so you better wait for death quietly!” The masked man sneered coldly, holding a blade that gleamed coldly.

Ye Chen couldn’t see clearly what weapon the man was holding; all he could see was a ball of light in the masked man’s hand.

Ye Chen retorted coldly, “Hmph, joking about killing me?

You’ll have to see if you’ve got the skills!”

“Seeking death!” Elder Mian Xu scoffed coldly, a mere mortal daring to challenge the might of the gods.

Truly seeking death.

Elder Mian Xu, holding the Light Blade, lunged at Ye Chen.

His speed was so fast that Ye Chen almost had to rely on instinct to counterattack.

Their weapons clashed, emitting a burst of light, and Ye Chen was sent flying back.

He coughed up blood, astonished at the man’s immense strength.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and quickly got up from the ground.

“Kid, I told you, you’re asking for death!” Elder Mian Xu sneered coldly, the Light Blade in his hand disappeared, replaced by a Short Knife.

He walked step by step toward Ye Chen.

Holding a Dagger in his right hand, Ye Chen was ready for the man’s sudden attack.

Clenching his teeth, Ye Chen asked, “Who the hell are you?”

“Who I am isn’t important; what’s important is why you offended Yan Bu’er?” Elder Mian Xu’s lips twisted into a cruel smile.

“What use is asking so many questions now?

Let my Blade take your head off your shoulders.”

Ye Chen step by step retreated backward, preparing to seize the opportunity to flee, having already decided that he was no match for his opponent.

So, Ye Chen had no intention of engaging in a tough fight.

Elder Mian Xu, how could he not see through Ye Chen’s thoughts?

Just when Ye Chen was looking for the chance to escape, Elder Mian Xu immediately brandished a Short Knife and pounced.

“Shit, that’s fast!” Ye Chen exclaimed in alarm, rapidly striding forward with his legs.

Crack…

Behind him, the sound of metal clashing echoed as Ye Chen rolled on the ground and then quickly hid in the nearby bushes.

Ye Chen immediately peeked out to see what was happening, and then he saw a familiar figure, exclaiming, “Ms.

Yan!”

“Xiao Chen, hurry and run!” Ms.

Yan tightly gripped a Double Flying Swallow, its Blade shimmering coldly, with a pair of wings, held in Ms.

Yan’s hands, she looked exceptionally heroic and stunning.

Ye Chen was taken aback and asked, “Ms.

Yan, who is he?”

“Hmph, Yun Yan, do you think you can protect him like this?” Elder Mian Xu chuckled coldly, saying, “Even if more of you come, what can you do?”

“Mian Xu, less of your nonsense!” Ms.

Yan didn’t utter another word and immediately rushed in, with both Double Flying Swallows radiating a gentle glow.

Elder Mian Xu’s hand which held the Short Knife emitted a dazzling light, and upon the impact of their strike, they unleashed a ferocious energy.

Ye Chen, hiding behind the bushes, witnessed such a battle and indeed, it was anything but ordinary.

Ms.

Yan somersaulted several times in midair, and Mian Xu took the opportunity to press on; the two of them fought indistinguishably.

After several exchanges, the two landed on the ground; Ms.

Yan spat out a mouthful of blood, her old wounds unhealed, now compounded with new ones.

Elder Mian Xu smiled coldly and said, “Yun Yan, your end has come!”

“Presumptuous!” Ms.

Yan snorted coldly, saying, “My companions will be here soon, you wait for your death.”

“Hmph, I told you last time, don’t overestimate yourself, but you just wouldn’t listen.

Now with old wounds unhealed and new ones added, it seems you don’t want to live!” Elder Mian Xu laughed out loud.

Hidden in the darkness, Ye Chen couldn’t hold back any longer.

He angrily rushed out; the idea of a woman protecting him and getting injured was something he couldn’t stand by and watch.

Ye Chen glared at Elder Mian Xu, saying, “You old freak, neither ghostly nor humanly, do you really want me to splash you with Black Dog Blood?”

“Hmph, boy, you’re nothing but trash in front of me!” Elder Mian Xu sneered, the light from his Short Knife glowing as he slashed towards Ye Chen.

Ye Chen clenched his teeth, sliding a Dagger from his sleeve.

Dagger versus Short Knife, it was supposed to be a fair duel, but Ye Chen could evidently feel Facebook man’s immense strength.

Suddenly, a massive force emanated from Ye Chen’s chest, pushing him away.

Ms.

Yan exclaimed, “Ye Chen, dodge!”

Ms.

Yan suddenly leapt forward from behind and pushed Ye Chen away with her hands.

It was too late for Ye Chen to hold on to Ms.

Yan; he could only watch helplessly as Ms.

Yan pushed him aside, and the gleam from Elder Mian Xu’s Blade instantly struck Ms.

Yan in the back.

Pfft…

Blood sprayed, painting a strange curve in the air before splashing into Ye Chen’s eyes.

Ms.

Yan’s blood dyed Ye Chen’s eyes red.

Stabbed in the back, Ms.

Yan fell forward, and Ye Chen hurried over, catching the collapsing Ms.

Yan, shouting in anxiety, “Ms.

Yan, Ms.

Yan!”

“Xiao Chen, don’t worry about me, you run!” Tears flowed from Ms.

Yan’s eyes as she implored, “You’re no match for him, you must go!”

“No, I can’t leave.

If I did, wouldn’t I be worse than a beast!” Ye Chen shook his head desperately.

“No, you need to run!” Ms.

Yan was almost at her limit; the strike from the Blade had cut deep into her flesh, severing arteries, with blood gushing out.

Her face turned pale, and her eyes slowly closed as she gasped, “Xiao Chen, hurry, it’ll be too late if you don’t!”

“Ha ha…” Elder Mian Xu threw his head back in loud laughter, the strike from his blade having nearly taken half of Yun Yan’s life.

Holding the bloody Short Knife, he stepped towards the two, saying, “The two of you, prepare to meet your end!”

As he spoke, he raised the Short Knife high, ready to deliver the final blow to Ms.

Yan’s life and then slowly deal with Ye Chen.

“Maybe I have fled in the past, but starting today, I will protect every person I care about with my life!” Holding Ms.

Yan, tears of blood streamed down Ye Chen’s cheeks.

Yun Yan, lying in Ye Chen’s arms, faintly heard the sounds of the war bugle, the melodious noises emanating from the Rhino’s long horns, and Ye Chen’s voice seemed to be coming from Hell itself, the rumble…rumble…
