Chapter 1458: Desperate Measures

Qinger's letter, of course, expressed concern for him and her own worries, urging him not to worry.
Curious, Yang Tao'er snatched it over, just as Li Mo, who had seen Huan Yue off, returned.
Qinger is reading a letter from Yuan Jingxing. After finishing reading it, she says, "This guy says he can find a way to delay things for you. You should consider it."
"What's the use of delaying things? If he really wants to help, he should find a way to steal the Dragon-slaying Sword or the Holy Spirit Stone. Otherwise, it's all nonsense," the Red Demon Spirit said.
Li Mo murmured, "It seems that Su Zhanze is responsible for the affairs within the county, while Chen Yu and Xiangzi are in charge of the matters outside the city."
"Even with Su Zhanze, he is just a puppet and is not of much use."
"If you want him to steal the Dragon Slayer Sword or the Holy Spirit Stone, forget about it," Li Mo said, sitting down as his stomach growled. "But receiving the magic pearl is better than nothing. Maybe it will really bring unexpected results."
Yang Taoer carefully read another letter and said, "Wow, the font is so envy-inducing, it's like it was carved. They really care about you."
Ye Chen didn't say anything, but he had made a decision. He said that he would battle Su Zhanze on the fifteenth and wouldn't change his mind.
Li Mo muttered, "Yuan Jinghang is not completely without status. After all, his father-in-law is Jiang Ouyang. Although Jiang Ouyang is dead, he left behind some loyal people who have now joined Yuan Jinghang. Yuan Jinghang still holds some positions in Xiancheng."
Yang Tao said coldly, "Su Zhanze still values Chen Yu and Xiangzi more."
Li Mo shook his head and said, "No, Yuan Jingxing does not want to follow Su Zhanze to do those things. But when Qiao Haoyu was still alive, Su Zhanze made sure someone was guarding the Immortal City to prevent Qiao Haoyu from causing trouble. So Yuan Jingxing was basically in charge of city affairs and city defense."
Yang Tao'er said coldly, "What's the point of talking about this."
Li Mo looked at the magic pearl, admired it for a while, and said, "It can be considered as a treasure."
Ye Chen has been silent all along.
Yang Taoer handed the letter back to Ye Chen and said, "Someone asked you to go and save her as soon as possible."
This girl, still in the mood to joke, really don't know how to say about him.
What can be done has been done, so there's no need to hesitate. Hesitation is not his style.
Yang Tao muttered, "They can't help us, so what's the use of finding them."
"Hurry up and eat your food! Aren't you the one who said you smell bad? Aren't you afraid of suffocating others?" Ye Chen finally couldn't hold it back anymore, her mind seemed to explode, and she kept on blabbering like firecrackers.
Yang Tao'er stared at him. His words were really harsh, completely different from when he asked for help.
Li Mo pushed the magic bead towards Ye Chen.
It doesn't matter how powerful the magic bead is, but it is very heavy. If he loses, he would let down the people of the immortal and demon realms.
At first, I wanted to seek revenge, but now I suddenly feel scared because I am concerned about the outcome. If it's not what I want, how many innocent people will lose their lives? Just thinking about this makes revenge not worth mentioning.
Yang Taoer finally closed her mouth, but she looked a little upset.
Ye Chen quickly picked up a chicken leg and handed it over.
Yang Taoer angrily said, "No."
"Hey, don't be so angry!"
Yang Tao'er ignored him.
"I'm a bit confused right now, so I may not be careful with my words. You're such a generous person, you won't mind, right?"
Yang Tao'er stood up and went back to her room.
一下子剩下了叶辰和李莫，还有红魔灵来。
李莫说道：“要不然，我们先拖一段时间。”
叶辰问道：“为什么要拖一段时间呢？”
"This way there is more time to prepare."
Ye Chen, however, said, "Everything that needs to be prepared, has already been prepared. There is nothing more to prepare, unless I am scared of him." He played with the magic bead on the table, and after a moment, he had come up with many thoughts. There were hardly any retreats. Yes, everything has already been prepared. What is there to hesitate about? Let the storm come."
Even if you give him another month, what else can he do?
No, he doesn't have any good ideas. Now there is only one way, and that is to forge ahead.
"Alright, stop trying to persuade me," Ye Chen said.
"Okay, I'll always support your decision."
"Any recent changes in the immortal and demon realm?"
"None, they are currently in the process of integration, probably in the final stage. It should be thanks to your letter. There's also no news about Su Zhanze lately, so Chen Yu and Xiangzi are basically in charge of the situation."
Ye Chen nodded slightly and said, "It seems that he is serious and wants to defeat me for real."
"Ouyang Yue sent me a carrier pigeon letter, saying that she wants to come and meet us."
"This girl, doesn't she understand what I mean? Let them stay there and don't come over." Ye Chen said anxiously.
"Okay, I will tell her."
"I really don't have enough chaos, is this fun?"
Li Mo said, "Yes, if he comes over, it will definitely stimulate Su Zhanze, but he just wants to help."
"Who can help now?" Ye Chen asked in return.
Red Devil Ling laughed and said, "Just here to cause trouble."
Ye Chen shouted, "Prepare the horses. We will go to the foot of the Immortal City tomorrow morning without wasting any time."
"But I don't know if someone will try to stop us," Li Mo worried.
The Red Magic Spirit shook his head, based on their journey he saw a fact; nobody was searching for him. He said, "Don't worry, Su Zhanze wants to defeat Ye Chen in front of Guo Yuqing, so how could he let him die on the way? It's not in Su Zhanze's interest."
Li Momo muttered, "No wonder we haven't encountered too many things since we came back."
"Alright, don't delay me. I just need to arrive in Xiancheng in fifteen minutes," Ye Chen stood up.
"I'm already full so quickly, and there's still so much delicious food," the Red Devil Spirit said.
"Let the brothers eat," Ye Chen continued, "those disciples don't need to follow us anymore."
Li Mo said, "Okay, I will make them disperse as soon as possible."
"Alright, let them wait for news,"
Hecheng, the city at the foot of the mountain.
At this moment, the sky was gradually getting brighter. Today was the day he would battle Su Zhanze.
He woke up early in the morning and was eating downstairs. It seemed that many people were still asleep, and there were still many people in the inn from time to time.
At this time, Li Mo and the Black Demon Spirit walked over. They were going to follow Ye Chen on a trip.
Ye Chen said, "You guys can stay at the foot of the mountain."
Li Mo said, "Yes, our skills are not that great, we won't be able to help much, but if you leave me in Hecheng and don't let me know anything, I will feel very uneasy. To prevent myself from feeling too uncomfortable, I still want to go with you."
Yechen expressed his understanding that today is the day to determine the winner between him and Zhanze Su. Although he has dreamt of having a final showdown with Zhanze Su every day for the past few days and should have been mentally prepared, now that the day has finally arrived, he still feels a bit anxious.
Yang Tao'er pushed open the door and glanced at them, seeming to confirm that Ye Chen had not left yet, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. He bounced and jumped like a lonely sparrow and came down.
Ye Chen asked, "Are you not going with me too?"
"Don't worry, I'll follow you, but I won't be as reckless as Yun'er, who would risk everything to save you when you're in danger."
This is true,” Ye Chen said coldly, “Then you still have to come with us.”
“I want to see how you will end up being beaten to the point of losing your teeth.”
"What a jinx! The war hasn't even started yet, and you're hoping that I'll be beaten to the ground and lose all my teeth. I seriously suspect if you're a spy sent by Su Zhanze. Otherwise, why would you wish for my defeat like this?"
Yang Tao said coldly, "If I were really a spy, you wouldn't have survived to this day."
Li Mo pushed the meat buns and rice dumplings towards him, fearing that he couldn't reach them, and said, "It's a good thing for the girl to follow along. If something happens, we can still find her."
“大战呢！出了事情还能够找她，开玩笑吧，临时抱佛脚也不是这样抱法的，要想殃及池鱼，我看还能够成功。”
杨桃儿抓起了一个包子，啃了两口，但觉得不是很过硬，扔下了，要了糯米鸡。
Ye Chen: "Yatou, you said that Su Zhanze will reach a critical point and go crazy, is it possible that you are deceiving me?"
Yang Tao'er has treated Su Zhanze before and knows it best. She said, "Are you doubting my judgment?"
"No, I don't doubt your judgment at all, but I am very aware that if I can't defeat Su Zhanze, there is only one way, and that is to force him to lose control and eventually go crazy. If you are wrong in your judgment, then I will truly be lost."
"It seems that you don't have so much confidence."
"Yes, facing the Dragon Slaying Sword and the Holy Spirit Stone all at once, I also wish I had confidence, but I still feel a little overwhelmed."
"So, you're planning to run away, huh?"
"I'm not such a coward."
"I think Su Zhanze should know that you've arrived in Hecheng. If you dare not go to Hecheng, he'll immediately send someone to find you."
"You know all this, I really admire you."
"Didn't I also say that he wants to defeat you in front of Qing'er? It's a fair defeat."
The Red Demon Spirit smiled and said, "That's Su Zhanze's personality. He finally caught such an opportunity."
Ye Chen takes a deep breath.
