Chapter 1209: Chapter 1195: Begin the Battle Chapter 1209: Chapter 1195: Begin the Battle Nangong Yao said a lot, which was all about how to storm in when the ti ca, how to react if situations arose, how to surround them, and how to deal with their system. He emphasized that after defeating them, Qiandu Xiang must not be allowed to escape.
These plans needed to be arranged, but Ye Chen felt that it was too idealistic, as if everything was under his control. He never believed in this approach, maybe because he had experienced too much. There’s no such thing as an ideal situation.
Plans were necessary, but they would undoubtedly have to adapt to the situation.
They decided to land at noon today, not wanting to give Qiandu Xiang any chance. They aid to strike in one fell swoop.
After much discussion, Wan Liyun from Iron Ten Thousand Island had a question. He asked, “What should we do about the group from the Thirty-Six Islands when the ti cos?”
Indeed, it was a good question. Guan Xun said, “This bunch gave a beating last ti; they dare not act rashly. They won’t fight us to the death imdiately; they definitely want to take advantage of the situation. They are a major trouble, and we cannot neglect them.”
Wan Liyun agreed, “Yes, they will take advantage of the situation, but we also can’t neglect them. If sothing unexpected happens and these guys swarm us, joining forces with Qiandu Xiang against us, that would be bad.”
Nangong Yao hurriedly said, “Exactly, how can we neglect these people? We’ve quietly blended two hundred of our people among them. The main mission of these two hundred is to keep an eye on the group from the Thirty-Six Islands. Of course, we can’t send too many since we need to keep most of our forces to deal with Qiandu Xiang. These two hundred people are there for any ergency, to provide resistance if sothing unexpected happens.”
Hearing this, Wan Liyun felt a bit more assured and said, “If that’s the case, it’s sowhat acceptable. Two hundred might be few, but they should be able to manage for a while.”
“The most important thing is to take down Sacred Spirit City as quickly as possible.”
Nangong Yao continued, “Sacred Spirit City is protected by the Ninety-nine Returns to One Array System. To breach it, we must break the system.”
Ouyang Yue pulled out a map, which was a very clear map of Sacred Spirit Island.
Pointing to the map, Nangong Yao said, “Here are nine towers linked together. To break the Ninety-nine Returns to One System, it’s sufficient to destroy just two of these towers.”
“I’m afraid it won’t be that easy if there are people guarding them. And with the nine towers forming a system, it can’t be so simple to break,” said Wan Liyun.
Ouyang Yue stood up and said, “Indeed, they are connected, but one of the towers is not functioning normally; this one here. My father had damaged it before, and I estimate it hasn’t been fully repaired yet.”
“What do you an?” asked Wan Liyun.
“Earlier this year, during a martial competition, an accident took place, and this tower was damaged,” she explained, pointing to a tower and circling it with a pen. “This one here, we can use it as our breakthrough point.”
Adding on, Nangong Yao said, “When the ti cos, leaving the task of breaking their system to Ye Chen.”
Ye Chen remained silent.
“And there’s Qiandu Xiang; as long as we kill him when the ti cos, nothing else will pose a barrier.”
Soone asked, “Are we attacking today?”
“Yes, today,” Nangong Yao replied. “We give them no chance, catching them completely off guard. I have inquired, and the local forces joining them amount to a minimal part, barely worth ntioning. Our manpower originally outnumbers theirs; we should push through in one fell swoop.
If anything does happen, we will adjust accordingly.”
Soon after, everyone dispersed.
There was still so ti before landing on the island. Shao Hengjiang sought out his daughter, Nangong Yan. Since admitting his identity, he had not had much of a conversation with Nangong Yan.
Now, Nangong Yan was no longer so resistant. Although she did not call him ‘father’, he knew she acknowledged him, which was his sole source of motivation.
Nangong Yan was foolishly thinking about what situations might arise, how to kill Qiandu Xiang, and then focusing all her thoughts on Ye Chen. He was the one who planned for all possibilities before taking action.
At that mont, Shao Hengjiang ca in, which surprised her, but she quickly guessed the reason for his visit. “If you’re here to persuade not to join this operation, save it,” she said.
Shao Hengjiang was about to speak but quickly shut his mouth. Nangong Yan poured him a cup of tea. After taking a sip, he still said, “It would be safer for you to stay on the ship.”
“If I were to stay on the ship, I wouldn’t have co at all.”
She was indeed very stubborn, just like him in his youth.
Continuing, Nangong Yan said, “Don’t worry, I won’t do anything rash. I’ll just watch from the back; you guys charge ahead.”
At noon, they landed on the island, which was easier than expected.
They encountered so resistance, but it was quickly repelled.
Of course, the island’s residents, aware that a battle could erupt today, had hidden away. The long streets were almost empty, eerily quiet as if haunted. The forces from the Thirty-Six Islands were keeping a close eye on them from the shadows, causing Ye Chen to involuntarily feel a chill down his spine.
“I’ve got a feeling this is a trap,” Ye Chen couldn’t help saying at last.
“Stop scaring yourself. You were brave during the ti on Xiyue Island; you seed invincible,” Ouyang Yue remarked.
Ye Chen replied, “Right, I must have been a bit out of my mind then, wanting to show off in front of you, but now, I’d like to live a bit longer.”
Ouyang Yue laughed, “There are quite a few Senior and Junior Sisters in the Sacred Spirit Sect, and they’re not bad to look at.”
Glancing at Nangong Yan, Ye Chen said, “Even if they were offered to for free now, I wouldn’t want them. You think you can tempt with that!”
“You’re not thinking of backing out now, are you?”
“Can I?”
“Think about the Central Plains, that girl waiting to et her father-in-law.”
That girl was too cunning, as if she had seized his lifeline; indeed, if he backed out now, she would be getting married.
“So, what’s it gonna be, if you want to delay for a month and a half, I have no objection. Just that when you return to the Central Plains, you might be greeting a woman with a child.”
“You really are the ‘loving’ sister I acknowledged, always ready to rub salt into my wounds at tis like this.”
Ouyang Yue was getting better at dealing with this monkey. This is exactly how to use provocation — it gives him the spur to commit without second thoughts. She said, “There’s no way around it. If you want to get out of this as soon as possible, kill Qiandu Xiang today.”
“I don’t think Qiandu Xiang and I have any deep hatred or bitter grudges.”
Ouyang Yue responded, “Who says that?”
“Do we have deep hatred and bitter grudges?”
“I’m your sworn sister, right? If he’s my enemy, then he’s your enemy. Still dare to say there’s no deep hatred or bitter grudge.”
“So that’s your purpose, to acknowledge as your brother.”
“Of course, if there were no benefits, why would I need a brother?”
“Alright, today has been quite the eye-opener.”
Nangong Yan couldn’t take it anymore and shouted, “Can’t you two stop bickering? Arguing at a ti like this.”
“Isn’t it normal for sisters and brothers to bicker with each other?”
Boom boom…
Several Fireballs flew from inside the city, heading towards the crowd.
With no hesitation, the loud explosions shattered the tranquility of Sacred Spirit Island. The Fireballs flew into Sacred Spirit City. The Ninety-nine Returns to One System released energy, protecting the scoundrels within the city.
Qiandu Xiang stood on the city walls. There was supposed to be so conversation before the battle, but Ouyang Yue was utterly sick of Qiandu Xiang of the Weak Waters Three Thousand. She couldn’t stand the sight of him and just wanted to kill him with a single sword strike.
True, most of those inside were disciples of the Sacred Spirit Sect, but those disciples were aiding Qiandu Xiang, infuriating her. Days ago, she had announced that they possessed Sacred Spirit Stones and warned those with consciousness to leave imdiately; otherwise, they couldn’t bla her if they got hurt by indiscriminate weapons. It indeed had so effect, as so quietly left.
Having already spoken, she no longer needed to be so cautious.
Nangong Yao led the charge, having Wan Liyun cover the rear, vigilant against the thirty-six islands.
Shao Hengjiang was to lead the charge to break the Ninety-nine Returns to One System. Ouyang Yue had entrusted Ye Chen with dealing with Qiandu Xiang but, worried about his lack of focus, she ntioned again, “Think of that girl in the Central Plains.”
“Can’t you stop nagging?”
It was apparent that Ye Chen was truly in a hurry.
Hundreds upon hundreds of Fireballs pressed in, followed by winged dragons flying everywhere, along with huge beasts charging toward Sacred Spirit City, instantly creating an intense clash of elents.
Ye Chen no longer wanted to listen to any more nonsense from that girl; with one stomp on the ground, he shot out like lightning, heading straight for the city.
Seeing the monkey taking the lead in the charge, Ouyang Yue wasn’t in a rush. She waved her hand, signaling Jiu Hu to co quickly. She swiftly led a group to another place. They didn’t press on towards the city wall, which struck Nangong Yan as strange. She had promised her father just to observe from the back and not to charge forward.
But the departure of Ouyang Yue and Jiu Hu with a group aroused her curiosity. Could it be that they had a secret operation? She quietly followed them.
After about one hour, Ouyang Yue noticed Nangong Yan trailing behind and said, “Girl, weren’t you supposed to stay at the rear to tend to the wounded?”
“Do you guys have so secret passage or a special operation?”
Indeed, Ouyang Yue wasn’t in Sacred Spirit City, but she had an unknown secret passage there, left by her adoptive father. The question was whether Qiandu Xiang had discovered that passage.
“Didn’t your father tell you to stay behind and look after the injured?”
Seeming to have guessed right, she declared, “How could you leave out of such fun?”
Damn, with the fight erupting over there, there was no way she could go back. She said, “Don’t get lost, and make sure to keep close behind us.”
Nangong Yan was thrilled.
“To think you wouldn’t even ntion such fun to .”
“Fun! If your father finds out, he’s going to scold again.”
