Chapter 666: Chapter 652: Turning the Tables
The next morning, Can Mo sought out Ye Chen early. Ye Chen had just gotten up, ready to eat breakfast.
The mother monkey was also awake.
At this mont, Can Mo ran over and opened his mouth to say, “I’ve seen Ming Bei.”
Ye Chen was taken aback upon hearing this. They needed Zhong Yao’s special arrangents to enter. It would be impossible for Ming Bei to enter Ghost City without soone’s help. Ming Bei is Yuan nhai’s right-hand man. Such an important task to et Jue Ming would definitely co with circumstances.
Yun’er was also startled and said, “If Ming Bei is to enter, he certainly would need Jue Ming’s assistance. Ming Bei, such an influential person, how could he visit Jue Ming in Ghost City without reason.”
Can Mo said, “It seems that Ye Chen’s speculation is almost certainly correct, they are probably here to kill Yang Jing.”
Yun’er said, “Killing Jue Ming, directly seizing Ghost City, and instantaneously controlling the No. One Heroes. It would be so easy for the Third Demon, what a small price to pay to take down the No. One Heroes.”
Can Mo grew a bit more somber, saying, “If they succeed, our New City Sect will be in danger. By then, they and the No. One Heroes will join forces to put us in a pincer attack, leaving us with no escape.”
Ye Chen remained silent. He hadn’t expected that their conversation from last night would actually co true.
Yun’er said, “Hehe, we almost had our ideas taken by them.”
“It’s really too dangerous.” Can Mo broke out in a cold sweat.
“Has Yang Jing been up to anything lately?” Ye Chen asked.
After hearing that, Can Mo said, “You should ask Shi Mu that question, he knows more than I do.”
“Alright.” Ye Chen thought he could see Shi Mu later.
Yun’er added, “If Ming Bei is already in Ghost City, he must have brought a number of people with him. They will surely assist Jue Ming.”
“Yes, you’re right, Yun’er. Fortunately, we also have two hundred people in Ghost City, and importantly, we have Shi Mu.” Can Mo continued, “We should plan thoroughly.”
Yun’er said, “We can use a trick, when Yang Jing gets killed. Then we can directly promote Shi Mu to beco the leader of No. One Heroes.”
Can Mo pondered a bit upon hearing this and said, “Good idea, definitely a good idea. It’s also a very good reason. We originally intended to kill Yang Jing, and now soone wants to help, why would we refuse? This is an opportunity we didn’t even dare to dream of, I think it can definitely succeed.”
Yun’er smiled and said, “The monkey is still worrying about how to convince the people of the No. One Heroes after killing Yang Jing.”
Can Mo said, “We can kill with a borrowed knife, Shi Mu is now the second in command of No. One Heroes, so he can be directly promoted.”
Yun’er said, “Isn’t Gui Lang dissatisfied with Shi Mu?”
“Gui Lang has already gone to Futu City with Er Gui and San Gui, he won’t beco an obstacle for us in Ghost City.”
Ye Chen called out, “Let’s eat!”
The excited Can Mo sat down and said, “It seems that God is on our side, allowing us to smoothly take Ghost City and control the No. One Heroes.”
Ye Chen said, “You and Li Mo, keep an eye on them, especially Ming Bei’s people, you must find out what they are up to, whether they really intend to kill Yang Jing.”
“Understood.”
It was as if God had given him a solution.
Can Mo laughed and said, “Indeed, when the ti cos, helping Shi Mu to take the leader position of the No. One Heroes, we can then join forces. The day when the Third Demon suffers a defeat is just around the corner.”
Yun’er, while eating, was also very excited.
“How are things in Central Plains?” Can Mo asked.
Ye Chen shook his head and said, “We haven’t received any news.”
“Ah, whenever we encounter trouble, it always starts from the Demon Domain.”
Ye Chen ate his food, not wanting to think about it, as long as the Dragon Slayer Clan did not secretly co in.
“As long as the Dragon Slayer Clan does not co in to cause trouble, our affairs will be much easier to handle.” Can Mo said.
“Don’t worry about what’s going on in the Demon Domain, sort out what Jue Ming and Ming Bei are up to first.”
“Mmm.” Can Mo nodded.
Jue Ming had been busy these past few days. If he wanted to kill Yang Jing, he would have to lure him out.
He knew that Yang Jing was very interested in beautiful won lately, but there was a tiger at ho.
So Yang Jing could only sneak out.
That’s how Shi Mu kept pampering Yang Jing.
If he wanted to kill Yang Jing, he could use this tactic to trick Yang Jing out, just like Xiao Bai and the others killing Gua Zhengnie.
Almost everything was ready.
Ming Bei asked, “Brother Jue Ming, how is it going?”
“Honestly, I really don’t like Yang Jing’s ghostly face, it’s especially nauseating.” Jue Ming was not a sycophant, but he had to put on an act now because he needed to find a way to lure Yang Jing out and kill him.
“Heh, bear with it.” After the incident in Wasteland City, Yuan nhai was forced to return to Sky Domain City. This seed to be the last straw. If Yang Jing could really be killed and Jue Ming put in his place, it would imdiately turn the tide. Therefore, Yuan nhai sent a carrier pigeon to Ming Bei, ordering him to kill Yang Jing at any cost to help Jue Ming beco the Sect Leader of No. One Heroes, even if it ant offering up his own woman, he didn’t care.
Jue Ming smiled slightly and said, “Mmm, I won’t ss up.”
“There’s only a few days left. A few days for you to bear with it. Then, when you kill Yang Jing, you can easily set Shi Mu up, accusing him of colluding with the New City Sect. By doing so, you can legitimately beco the city lord of Ghost City. We will do everything in our power to help you.”
Upon hearing this, Jue Ming was already extrely excited. He said, “I’m really grateful.”
“Heh, there’s no need to thank us. We’ll all be on the sa side eventually.”
For Jue Ming, he knew that success wouldn’t be possible if he relied solely on himself, as he isn’t that powerful. At this mont, with the arrival of around two hundred followers of the Third Demon, he feels much more confident. These people are experienced martial arts experts.
“How is the preparation going?” Ming Bei asked.
“Everything is basically ready, we’re just waiting for Yang Jing to co out.”
Ming Bei nodded after hearing this and said, “That’s good. We need to hope that nothing unpredictable happens during this period.”
Jue Ming was even more anxious deep down, fearing that sothing unexpected would happen midway.’
Ye Chen was pacing back and forth in the inn.
Yun’er asked, “What are you pacing around for!”
Ye Chen glanced at Yun’er, who was lying on the upper bunk.
“Everything has already been decided. What’s there to worry about?”
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Li Mo ca in along with Shi Mu, Zhong Yao, and Can Mo.
As soon as Shi Mu entered, he went over and said, “I pay my respects to the Sect Leader.” He looked incredibly young.
“Mmm, stand up quickly,” Ye Chen helped him up.
Shi Mu said, “I’m deeply honored to et the Sect Leader today. I’ve always wanted to et you.”
Ye Chen sat down and Li Mo quickly poured them tea.
Shi Mu said, “Without the Sect Leader’s help, I wouldn’t have achieved this much.” He has been excited all night from thinking about how the Sect Leader plans to make him the leader of the No. One Heroes and the city lord of Ghost City.”
“Mm, I’ve wanted to et you for a long ti too.”
“The Sect Leader truly is young. I barely believe that this is the person even Yuan nhai is so scared of that he’d wet his pants.”
Everyone chuckled.
Without wasting ti, Ye Chen directly asked, “By the way, have there been any news of Jue Ming’s activities these past days?”
Shi Mu, who had rarely paid attention to this person before, said, “I was under Jue Ming’s control, but because of the Sect Leader’s help, I ended up becoming Yang Jing’s right-hand man. Jue Ming was quite unhappy, and we fell out of contact.”
“What has he been up to recently?”
“I haven’t been paying attention.”
After hearing this, Can Mo asked, “Do you know that Jue Ming and Ming Bei are together?”
“Ming Bei!” Shi Mu was sowhat surprised and said in shock, “I had no clue.”
“Ming Bei has secretly brought n into Ghost City and has struck up an alliance with Jue Ming.”
“What’s he trying to do?”
Yun’er laughed, “Most likely, he wants to kill Yang Jing. In the end, he’ll let you take the bla, accusing you of conspiring against the city lord. When the ti cos, you won’t even know how you died, you’d just be happily celebrating.”
Having heard this, Shi Mu was startled and said, “Then I must hurry and warn Yang Jing.”
Ye Chen imdiately called out, “No, you need to calm down. The situation isn’t that urgent yet. I need you to recall what Jue Ming has been doing recently.”
Shi Mu instantly beca serious, thought for a mont, then said, “Recently, Jue Ming has been quite proactive in giving Yang Jing many offerings. There are fun things here, as well as won. But of course, the won can’t be presented inside their mansion because Hong Ying is there. She would get angry. If I present won to Yang Jing, I have to hide them well first, then arrange a eting with Yang Jing.”
“Are you sure he gave him won?”
“Probably the sa as
– just to make Yang Jing happy.”
After hearing this, Can Mo said, “I don’t think it’s intended to make him happy. He seems to be preparing to make his move soon.”
All at once, Shi Mu beca anxious and asked, “Do they really want to kill Yang Jing?”
Can Mo sneered, “Think about it. Yuan nhai has been defeated by us, and his strength has now greatly reduced. He is incapable of taking down Ghost City or defeating the No. One Heroes anymore. So, what’s the best solution? Definitely to cultivate soone who obeys them. Isn’t this evident from Jue Ming and Ming Bei joining hands? If they manage to kill Yang Jing and push Jue Ming into the position of city lord, thus controlling the No. One Heroes, wouldn’t that be a great solution? Even we can think of it. Do you think Yuan nhai wouldn’t?”
Hearing this, Shi Mu was taken aback. It was as if he had woken up from a dream. He quickly asked, “Then, Sect Leader, what should we do now?”
Ye Chen replied, “We’ll use their sches against them.”
Shi Mu asked again, “How does the Sect Leader plan to turn their plans against them?”
Ye Chen continued, “We’ll let them act on their plans to kill Yang Jing. But we’ll act as the yellow-oriole behind, there to catch Jue Ming when he shows his true colors and trap him red-handed. Then, you can rightfully beco the leader of the No. One Heroes.”
Shi Mu looked over, continuously nodding and then asked, “But I don’t know how many n Ming Bei has brought in.”
Li Mo said, “Even if they have people, so do we.”
