Super God Grandmaster - Chapter 676 - 662: Deadlock
Shi Mu was considering whether to invite the No. One Heroes to join New City Sect as well. š§š³š¦āÆšš¦š·šÆšš£š¦š.šøš°š
However, news from Bishui City arrived at this time. Wan Guangcai was back as well, saying, "Weād never thought that Gui Lang would attack Bishui City. We werenāt as strong as them to begin with, and at midnight, they blew the city gate open."
Ye Chen remained silent.
Everyone was present at this time. Li Mo said, "We originally planned to join forces with the No. One Heroes to take down the Third Demon together!"
Zhong Yao said, "Gui Lang had been disagreeable with Yang Jing for a long time, but didnāt show it. Especially when Yang Jing kicked them out to Futu City, they were left feeling very uncomfortable and provoked."
Yet Can Mo said, "No, this man is inherently selfish, and he didnāt sincerely follow Yang Jing. As far as he is concerned, Yang Jing is just a bereaved thief that he looks down upon."
Li Mo then coldly said, "Itās useless to say anything now, Yang Jing has turned traitor, and we have to face him."
Zhong Yao added, "Yang Jing and the Third Demon have issues with each other, he wonāt help them against us."
Shi Mu said, "I was thinking of persuading the No. One Heroes to join the New City Sect as soon as possible, then joining forces against the Third Demon." He knew that everything he had achieved was due to the help of the New City Sect. Without them, he wouldnāt be where he was today.
Li Mo also nodded and said, "As long as we join forces, we will be the largest faction in Wasteland City. We donāt fear Yuan Menhai, and even less Gui Lang and his group. They are not our opponents. To have the No. One Heroes join us would be a good choice, I think itās worth considering."
However, Ye Chen shook his head. He knew that Shi Mu had just captured Ghost City and needed a transition period. It was not necessary to be in such a hurry, and said, "No, the No. One Heroes donāt need to join the New City Sect in such a hurry. After all, a lot of Yang Jingās people are still around. Joining in such a rush isnāt necessary."
"But most people are willing to join the New City Sect," Shi Mu said.
Ye Chen replied, "We donāt need to rush this. Right now, the most important thing isnāt about the No. One Heroes joining the New City Sect, but about what kind of method we should come up with to deal with the Third Demon and Gui Lang.
Can Mo added: "Sect Leader is right, it would indeed be inappropriate to allow the No. One Heroes to join the New City Sect prematurely, as it would create turmoil. Especially at this time, we need to remain stable, we shouldnāt get involved in other matters. We should instead think of ways to deal with Yuan Menhai and Gui Lang."
"Even if Gui Lang has captured Bishui City, he is not as good as us. It will be easy for us to take them down," Shi Mu said.
Ye Chen slightly smiled and said, "Perhaps, you guys might be able to take down Bishui City at some cost indeed. But you must be clear, there is a Third Demon there. When the time comes, if killing a thousand enemies costs eight hundred of your own men, it would only serve to benefit the Third Demon."
Shi Mu nodded slightly and said, "The Third Demon and Gui Lang have conflicts, they definitely wonāt help Gui Lang."
Ye Chen smiled and said, "Anything is possible. Everything is driven by interest. As long as the interest is strong enough, anything can happen."
"Then what should we do now?" Shi Mu looked somewhat at a loss.
Ye Chen said, "You first secure the Ghost City and take care of your territory. Avoid the situation in Bishui City from happening again. We can slowly devise a plan, thereās no need to hurry."
Can Mo also said, "Exactly, the current situation is still very favorable for us. Whether Gui Lang will cooperate with Yuan Menhai or not is still hard to say, but whatās most important is that we are together."
Ye Chen listened and said, "Shi Mu, thereās no need to rush. First stabilize your people, keep calm, and take control of the situation first. Zhong Yao and Second Manor Master, you two will be responsible for assisting Shi Mu in taking control of the situation."
Shi Mu said, "All of them are clamoring for revenge."
"Thereās no need to rush for revenge," Ye Chen said. "You need to wait, especially when such things occur all of a sudden. You could easily fall into someone elseās trap, especially at this time when you have just become their leader."
Shi Mu nodded slightly.
Take your time, you go back, maintain good relations with Li Yue, and arrange his people well. It canāt be like Yang Jing."
"I understand."
"First stabilize your situation. We donāt know yet if Gui Lang will stir up more stuff. We canāt underestimate him. In the past, he was able to see through Xiao Baiās tricks, showing that he is quite intelligent. He dared to take down Bishui City with Er Gui and his group, it must be because he saw an opportunity. He knows thereās a Third Demon around, and the New City Sect, everything is unstable. He must have thought that Yang Jing would not dare to target him regardless of the danger, but he didnāt expect you to become the new leader of the No. One Heroes."
Ye Chen made simple arrangements.
Ye Chen added: "If you need any help, find Can Mo." The matter in Bishui City happened all of a sudden, to which even he was somewhat unprepared. For now, he needed to think carefully. His plans didnāt keep up with the changes, so he couldnāt be careless about Gui Lang. When Gui Lang goes crazy, heās likely to indiscriminately hurt people."
Not long after, they dispersed.
Shi Mu stood up, saying, "Sect Leader, if you have nothing else, I will go back and handle things first."
Ye Chen replied, "In that case, donāt rush to bring the No. One Heroes into the New City Sect. Especially when there are people like Gui Lang and the Third Demon around, if they point fingers at you, it wouldnāt be good for you either."
"Okay, I understand."
"There will be plenty of time in the future. You should first handle your own matters, Iāll see how it goes."
Shi Mu nodded and said, "Then Iāll leave. Iāll arrange a bigger inn for you."
"No need, this place is fine, right here. You go and handle your matters, deal with the issue related to the No. One Heroes."
Shi Mu left.
Soon, the room only had Ye Chen and Yunāer left.
Yunāer shook her head and said, "Damn, I thought we could wrap up, but I did not expect Gui Lang to stir up such a mess."
Ye Chen remained silent, still very calm.
"I thought, after taking care of Yang Jing, we could start aiming at Sky Domain City."
"We all thought so, but now Gui Lang obviously canāt be underestimated. Especially when dealing with Yuan Menhai, we mustnāt let this mad dog exploit any opportunities. Otherwise, it will bite us too."
"So, what should we do now?" Yunāer was at a loss.
"What else can we do? Those who should get married will get married, those who should have children will have children. What else!" Ye Chen said.
"I didnāt expect Gui Lang to be this wily."
"Heās not dumb! He teamed up with Er Gui and San Gui, and they fit right into his scheme. He knows the balance of power among the three. Even if he takes over Bishui City now, the No. One Heroes wonāt dare to touch him casually. He also needs to consider Yuan Menhaiās people. No one is a fool here except us."
"Do you think they will join forces with Yuan Menhaiās people?"
"Hard to say, itās all driven by interests! Now that the Third Demon is in such a state, Yuan Menhai is our lethal enemy. Yang Jing was killed, the evidence is solid. Itās their doing with Jue Ming, which means they canāt possibly ally with the No. One Heroes."
"But Gui Lang also has a grudge against Yuan Menhai."
"Comparatively speaking, itās just the death of Gua Zhengnie, not Gui Langās father. He doesnāt care, especially with whatās happening now, Gui Langās forces should be the weakest."
Yunāer shook her head after hearing that and said, "A perfectly good situation suddenly turns into this."
"I told you before, donāt get too excited too early. Now do you believe me?" Ye Chen was murmuring something to himself.
Yunāer shook her head and said, "I wonder if Yuan Menhai knows that we are with the No. One Heroes."
"He might suspect it, but heās not sure." He knew that last night, Can Mo and Li Mo didnāt really show up.
"If so, can we use this to our advantage?"
"Compared to some time ago, the situation has improved. At least we now have a chance. Before, we were just running for our lives. Now the opportunity is right in front of us. It depends on whether we can seize it." Ye Chen thought to himself, indeed, they should plan carefully.
Yunāer said, "Letās stop thinking. Iām going out for a walk."
Ye Chen looked at her and asked, "To Loverās Lake?"
"Go to hell, youāre always thinking of taking advantage of me!" Yunāer said.
"Youāre pretty plump. If I donāt take advantage of you, then whom? Will you agree if I take advantage of someone else! You might tear the other girl apart." Ye Chen looked at the street below. The weather was pretty good.
"Are you saying Iām fat?"
"No, just saying you have a lot of places to take advantage of."
"Youāre just a big pervert."
"What can I do! You always dress up like a roast, a hunter canāt resist when he sees his prey." Ye Chen stood up.
"I thought you were more reserved! Planning to keep your purity for Lingāer, ready to become a monk."
"Huh!"
"Just a big pervert, pretending to be a saint, but in reality, youāre so wicked deep inside."
"As long as you know, be careful or else youāll lose your innocence and I wonāt be responsible. By then, youāll have to go back to Demon Palace City with a big belly."
Unbeknownst to them, it was already noon.
"What on earth is going on in Central Plains? Thereās been no news from that group of people." A few days have passed, and she was getting restless, despite usually being calm and collected.
Whatās worse, the Wastelands are facing this turmoil, adding another hungry wolf to the mix. Originally, they planned to quickly dispose of the Third Demon, but now it seems they canāt rush anymore.
