Chapter 876: Chapter 862: Longhun Wants to Kill Ye Chen Chapter 876: Chapter 862: Longhun Wants to Kill Ye Chen Guo Yuyun happened to hear it and said, “Then just change it.”
Ye Chen looked over and hurriedly said, “This place is good, it has the sll of ho.”
Xuan Si chuckled on the side.
“What good food is there?” Ye Chen asked.
Xuan Si saw the dumplings and said, “Your mother-in-law made these dumplings for you.”
“I’m just worried that I’ve been wrapped up into dumplings,” Ye Chen said.
Xuan Si laughed and said, “It seems my luck is not bad, thanks to your good taste.”
Ye Chen sat down and felt as if he had co full circle, returning to where he started, just like yesterday. Unconsciously, he started to recall so of the past events. When he first ca to Demon Palace City, it was also to deal with the Dragon Slaying Clan, and now, after a full circle, he was back to confronting the Dragon Slaying Clan.
But too many things had happened since then. Initially, he thought Ling’er had died, but this ti it was real.
He Xibai nudged the sowhat distracted Ye Chen and asked, “What are you looking at? Don’t you rember this place?”
“I rember, isn’t this the courtyard we stayed in last ti?” Ye Chen replied.
“Do you rember what happened between you and our Yun’er here?”
“What happened?”
“Don’t play dumb here, it’s very fake!”
“Could it be that I promised to marry your Yun’er here?”
“This guy really knows how to play dumb,” He Xibai said as she laid out the food, “I’ll brew us another pot of tea.”
Xuan Si said, “So there’s a story in this courtyard too, Yun’er. You want Ye Chen to take a good trip down mory lane?”
“She wants to feel guilty, think that I have let her down,” Ye Chen said.
“So, do you feel guilty?”
“It seems I haven’t really done anything to feel guilty about.”
Upon hearing this, Xuan Si comnted, “Her heart is what you stole from here.”
“Really? I haven’t even lifted a finger, and she just gave her heart to . That’s not stealing, is it?”
“Then what is it?”
“Shaless, that’s what it is.”
Guo Yuyun slapped him on the arm with a smack and exclaid, “Am I shaless?”
“No, it’s my ancestors who are showing blue smoke,” Ye Chen quickly replied.
“Shouldn’t it be black smoke?” Xuan Si asked.
“How would you know?”
Guo Yuyun was thinking about how exactly to deal with the Sea Demon tomorrow. The Sea Demon was truly formidable, but not without a solution.
Ye Chen muttered, “How did the Heavenly Pearl end up in Longhun’s hands?”
Xuan Si heard this and said, “Maybe Su Zhanze and the others were captured, or perhaps killed.”
Guo Yuyun looked over, also pondering this scenario; if that was the case, then her sister could very well have been killed too.
Suddenly, Ye Chen fell silent, unsure of what to say.
“Perhaps they aren’t that cruel; maybe they just captured them,” Xuan Si suggested.
Ye Chen didn’t respond.
Guo Yuyun glanced at Ye Chen, knowing he was definitely worried about his own sister.
Xuan Si said, “If they were dead, they would likely leave bodies behind. They’re not kind-hearted enough to bury them, so it’s very likely they were captured. But if they were captured, where would they be taken?”
Ye Chen continued eating his dumplings.
Guo Yuyun nudged him and said, “Don’t think too much; my father told you to finish your food and hurry to the Temple.”
Outside the city, it was quiet; Longhun was a bit conflicted.
After today, he realized that breaking into Demon Palace City was indeed difficult, and another batch of people from New City Sect was approaching. The Mitra Monk was becoming impatient, visiting him because he knew Longhun must be anxious, bringing Slaughter Saint and Jing Po with him.
Upon seeing Shi Xueqin coming out, the Mitra Monk asked, “How’s the Young Master?”
“A bit angry,” Shi Xueqin replied.
Longhun was so close to killing Ye Chen he could taste it. If it hadn’t been for his interference, how could things have possibly beco the ss they were today? Not to ntion the arrival of a large group of people from the Wastelands, bringing with them untold new troubles. He would simply not allow such events to unfold.
Mitra Monk saw Longhun sitting beside the fire, lost in thought.
Longhun looked up, a small piece of paper in hand, and said, “Send a pigeon ssenger to Elder Xi Feng.” He had already prepared the ssage.
Mitra Monk guessed Longhun’s intention and asked, “Young Master, have you decided to use the demons from the two levels of Hell Tower to deal with them?”
It seed there were no better options.
Jing Po remarked, “This should have been done long ago.”
Mitra Monk was keen to understand Longhun’s plan and added, “But opening those two levels and getting them to co here to help us might not be so easy. It’s hard to say whether they’ll cooperate with our assault on Demon Palace City, especially since the number of demons from both levels isn’t large.”
Longhun said, “Have them go after the New City Sect people, entangle them, stop them from coming here. As long as they agree, hold them off for half a month, and I’ll give them the antidote.”
“If that’s the plan, can we breach Demon Palace City within half a month?” Slaughter Saint expressed so doubt, especially after today which had shaken his confidence a bit.
Suddenly, Longhun said, “What do you think Guo Mingyu will do after he learns that we’ve released demons from Hell Tower to block the New City Sect?”
Upon hearing this, Jing Po said, “They’ll definitely suspect that we have unlocked so of the Sealed Doors in Hell Tower.”
Slaughter Saint added, “They will surely send soone to prevent Elder Xuan and the others from continuing to unlock the Sealed Doors.”
“Exactly, who do you think they will send?” Longhun curiously quipped.
“That’s really hard to say.”
“I think it’s very likely they’ll send my brother. They’re worried that if the Sealed Doors of Hell Tower are further unlocked, and if more were to be opened, they’d face even more demons. They’d have to send soone extrely reliable, and to them, I suspect there’s no one more trustworthy than my brother.”
Mitra Monk didn’t understand Longhun’s real aning.
“Contained within those two levels are Shangguan Heiqi, Teng Yun’e, and Ace Killer. How good is their martial arts, do you know?”
“All of them are formidable; any single one could best in a fight.”
“Then, if they join forces, could they kill the Sect Leader of the New City Sect?” Longhun’s killing intent surfaced. He had beco intolerant, determined that he must eliminate him and then find a way to deal with Demon Domain. As long as he killed him, he didn’t believe he couldn’t find a thod to counter the demons.
“You want to kill Ye Chen?”
“Kill, there’s no point keeping around those not in league with . I’ve made it clear in the ssage. If the people of Demon Palace City know sothing from Hell Tower is getting loose, they will definitely send soone to stop it — and it has to be led by none other than my brother. I want them to find a way to kill the Sect Leader of the New City Sect for .”
Slaughter Saint and the others exchanged glances and said, “If we can truly succeed, have them block New City Sect’s mbers, then tackle Demon Domain. Guo Mingyu might be cautious, but he’s certainly no match for us.”
Mitra Monk hadn’t anticipated Longhun being so resolute.
“What are you looking at for, thinking I’m too cruel?”
They all shook their heads in response.
With a cold smile, Longhun said, “What a ti for sentints. There is no room for feeling. If I don’t kill him, he will kill . Do you think I’m that stupid?”
Slaughter Saint comnted, “It’s indeed feasible.”
“The Sect Leader of New City Sect has sabotaged our major plans; had it not been for him, we would’ve annihilated the Demon Domain by now,” Jing Po stated.
Longhun wouldn’t hesitate like his father did; when it was ti to make a killing move, it had to be done. He muttered to himself, “rcy towards an enemy is cruelty to oneself. I won’t give my enemies the chance to strike at . Just release the pigeon ssenger with the ssage. Elder Xi Feng will know what to do after reading it.”
Longhun needed to think of a good plan. If Ye Chen left and the incoming New City Sect was tied up, his focus would be on how to break into Demon Palace City. Even without Ye Chen, breaking into Demon Palace City might be difficult, but he believed he would indeed find a way.
Longhun inquired, “Is the plan feasible?”
Slaughter Saint replied, “If we really kill the Sect Leader of the Immortal City Sect, New City Sect will fall into disarray. It would greatly ease our future dealings with New City Sect.”
“Right, of course. After we eradicate Demon Domain, we’ll have Wastelands to contend with too.” Of course, this too was within Longhun’s considerations, and he had pondered over it seriously.
“If they kill Ye Chen, then we’ll give them the antidote,” Longhun continued.
“Without Ye Chen, they’ll definitely not be our match,” Jing Po added.
“Alright, by tomorrow things should be in order. Let our n rest well, no need to rush,” Longhun said, calming slightly.
Jing Po and Slaughter Saint followed Mitra Monk out.
Jing Po voiced his concern, “What if Guo Mingyu sends soone else? If he sends a different person, won’t our plan fail?”
However, Slaughter Saint countered, “Eight or nine out of ten, they’ll send the Sect Leader of New City Sect because he’s the most reliable. As the leader of Demon Palace City, Guo Mingyu must stay behind; it wouldn’t make sense for him not to.”
“But what if he sends soone else?” Jing Po continued, puzzled.
Shaking his head, Slaughter Saint responded, “If he sends soone else, Guo Mingyu won’t feel at ease; he’s also concerned that if more demons are released, things will beco even more challenging. So he will certainly send soone he trusts the most.”
Jing Po acknowledged, “It seems the Young Master has the upper hand after all.”
Slaughter Saint concluded, “If we can indeed eliminate the Sect Leader of New City Sect, it would be greatly advantageous for us. Not to ntion whether he could help Demon Domain, but it would leave New City Sect headless.”
