Chapter 989: Chapter 988: You Looking at Me? Die!
Finally, the completely enlightened Old Wang was very excited, saying, "Young Master, wait here for a moment, I’ll go kill a few!"
"Old Wang!" Mei the Third Aunt immediately tensed up, staring at Old Wang and scolding him.
Old Wang shrank his neck, realizing that he had made a mistake in how he addressed Ye Chen, and dared not stay there. He feared being pursued for questioning by Ye Chen, so he immediately went to join the battle.
Mei the Third Aunt remained silent, secretly observing Ye Chen to see that he didn’t seem to have any reaction, then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Young Master Ye, once things on Aurora Island are settled, why not take a tour of our Seventy-Two Islands?"
Ye Chen nodded and said, "At that time, let’s also invite the Master of Wine."
He had long suspected that the people of the Seventy-Two Islands were part of his mother Yun Ying’s arrangements.
Old Wang’s recent shout further proved Ye Chen’s suspicion.
Battling Monk also calls him Young Master.
Therefore, Battling Monk must be in league with them!
Mei the Third Aunt: "..."
In the end, the Young Master still noticed.
Ye Chen: "Elder Mei, there’s really no need to hide things from me. I’m not impulsive by nature, and I know the situation isn’t optimistic, so I won’t act recklessly.
But...
Time is running short!
I need to quickly make contact with the other side of the Celestial Dao Cage to handle the series of matters that follow."
His mother’s days are numbered, and in his hands, he holds the vital blood gifted by Yi Xiaoyao, the World Daoist Master of the previous era. It can extend life and nullify curses if the energy is refined.
So, the priority is to find a way to first send the item into the Celestial Dao Cage.
Mei the Third Aunt was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "I’ll notify the Master of Wine!"
Inadvertently, half an hour passed.
"Boom!"
In the region of the Emperor Realm battlefield, an earth-shattering sound erupted.
A figure fled rapidly.
Mei the Third Aunt looked at Ye Chen and said, "Young Master, I’ll start now."
Ye Chen nodded.
Mei the Third Aunt’s figure flashed, and the next moment, she appeared high in the sky, dragging the weakened Li Chunfeng.
"Li Chunfeng, this time it’s thanks to your notification. Otherwise, our Seventy-Two Islands would have suffered significant losses. Today’s battle was indeed satisfying, haha, rest assured, the Sea Heart Fruit you want will be delivered to you intact.
This is an Emperor’s Long Saber, take it as a token of sincerity from our Seventy-Two Islands.
I’ll have to trouble you, once you return to the Ten Thousand Islands Sect, to thank your Li family’s ancestor on my behalf. The Seventy-Two Islands will remember this favor."
Without waiting for Li Chunfeng to refuse, Mei the Third Aunt thrust the Emperor’s Long Saber into his hands.
Li Chunfeng looked utterly bewildered.
What was going on?
He had been watched by the people of the Seventy-Two Islands, unable to move a step, just knowing that the fighting around was intense...
Suddenly, Mei the Third Aunt came to thank him, gave him the Emperor’s weapon, and promised the Sea Heart Fruit!
The Sea Heart Fruit from the Seventy-Two Islands, that’s something precious, a top-grade Spirit Medicine nurtured by the heart blood of the Heart of the Sea King...
Li Chunfeng’s mind buzzed as he said, "Isle Master Mei, and what about Ye Chen?"
Mei the Third Aunt said, "I’ll naturally hand him over to you later, for you to deal with as you see fit."
Li Chunfeng nodded.
Still feeling a bit dazed, sensing that the people of the Seventy-Two Islands were suddenly being exceedingly polite to him!
Mei the Third Aunt shook her head secretly.
With this brain, he dared to go against the Young Master...
The Young Master is truly formidable. With just a few words, he set up a huge trap, letting the Ten Thousand Islands Sect and Celestial Child Divine Island unknowingly fall into it.
Whether the Ten Thousand Islands Sect and Celestial Child Divine Island fight or not doesn’t matter.
It’s best if they do.
If they don’t, estrangements will definitely arise, and conflicts will surely be inevitable in the future.
...
Inside Aurora Island.
Bai Yi was utterly defeated and returned at the cost of a serious injury.
His face was ashen, his heart desolate.
All calculations had come to naught.
Looking at the remaining defeated soldiers beside him, Bai Yi’s expression was dejected, his mouth showing a smile uglier than crying, and said, "It’s over, everything is over, I never thought Aurora Island would be destroyed by my hand..."
"Isle Master Bai, it’s not entirely hopeless yet."
Spirit Master Fan Jun, likewise heavily injured and barely alive, gritted his teeth and said, "Ming Yue couldn’t handle Ye Chen, Ye Chen is still alive, but he doesn’t know about these matters. We can let Ye Chen continue manipulating the Aurora Array, and as long as we persist for three days, I can find a way to lead everyone out of Aurora Island undetected!"
Bai Yi, like a drowning person grasping at a straw, his eyes lit up and he asked, "Is that true?!"
Fan Jun: "I have an ancient Teleportation Array extracted from the Godstone, albeit severely damaged, but after decades of my meticulous repair, it can now barely be used. Give me some time to set it up, and when the ancient Teleportation Array begins, no one will notice our departure!"
Bai Yi immediately said, "Good, I’ll go find Ye Chen and find a way to make him continue working for us!"
Just then.
Someone rushed to Bai Yi and said, "Isle Master, Bai Kai and Ye Chen have arrived."
Bai Yi’s eyes sparkled, and he immediately said, "Let both of them come over."
Moments later.
Ye Chen and Bai Kai arrived in the clearing.
Ye Chen: "Isle Master Bai, why is your head cracked?"
Bai Yi: "...The bandits from the Seventy-Two Islands are fierce, truly hard to contend with. Since Young Master Ye was healing, I didn’t want anyone to disturb him, so I engaged in a life-and-death battle with them, hoping to carve a way out and then take Young Master Ye away, but unfortunately..."
Ye Chen: "While I was healing, someone broke in. Fortunately, I was well-prepared, so I was lucky to survive."
Bai Yi: "That’s fortunate, and I ask for Young Master Ye’s forgiveness. Our Aurora Island is at a moment of life and death, with a shortage of manpower. If we can’t fend them off, once we get through this crisis, I will certainly investigate thoroughly!
For now, I ask Young Master Ye to quickly manipulate the Aurora Array, or else the bandits from the Seventy-Two Islands will soon storm in."
Ye Chen nodded and said, "There’s no rush about the Aurora Array. I just want to ask Isle Master Bai, where is that Godstone?"
According to Mei the Third Aunt, it was a Godstone found in a seafloor ruin, quite special, very likely to contain excellent items inside.
Ye Chen was quite interested in this.
The Godstone holds significant meaning in the Celestial Burial Sea.
Beside him, Bai Kai said, "We can continue to assist, but the Godstone must belong to us, and you shouldn’t say anymore that the Godstone was opened with nothing to gain."
Ye Chen: "Isle Master Bai is a smart person, I believe you know how to decide without me saying more."
Bai Yi gritted his teeth and said, "Ye Chen, help us hold out for three days, and after that, half of the holy swords from Aurora Island’s Sword Pool will be yours!"
Ye Chen: "..."
These guys are just focused on fighting outside, not even realizing their Sword Pool is already empty.
"I don’t like holy swords; I just like the Godstone." Ye Chen said flatly.
Spirit Master Fan Jun said, "Isle Master Bai, the Godstone is something outside of ourselves..."
At the same time, secretly transmitted to Bai Yi: "Isle Master Bai, agree to him first, once I’ve made arrangements, we’ll take his life. The stuff will still be yours, and we can bring his body to Celestial Child Divine Island for the bounty."
Bai Yi took a deep breath, looked at Ye Chen, and said, "Fine, I agree with you, but the Godstone can’t be given to you yet, it’ll be yours after this matter is resolved!"
Ye Chen smiled and said, "At least let me see the Godstone."
"Come with me!" Bai Yi said, then added, "You can only go alone!"
Right now, he’s not in a condition to beat Bai Kai, worried that Bai Kai might directly grab the Godstone upon seeing it.
Ye Chen nodded.
"Let’s go." Bai Yi said.
Ye Chen: "Wait a moment."
Ye Chen then looked at Fan Jun beside him and said, "Are you glaring at me?"
Fan Jun: "..."
"Swish!"
Suddenly, an incredibly sharp Sword Qi was unleashed by Ye Chen, swift and unparalleled.
In the blink of an eye.
Fan Jun, dead!
