Chapter 1927: Chapter 1927 Work Together
Ye Liuyun was puzzled when he heard the Witch say that the war couldn’t be stopped.
"Why? Didn’t this fight start because you were taken hostage? Now that we know that humans were framed by the foreign races, you guys still wanna send troops?"
Witch replied directly, "The Devil Clan has not been at war for many years. The population is now overgrown, and we’re running out of territory and resources. Without the war, what are we gonna do with so many people?"
"So, the Devil Clan’s been wanting to go to war?" Ye Liuyun asked, somewhat surprised.
At this, Witch nodded and explained, "We’ve had this idea for a while, we’ve just been waiting for an opportunity. Plus, there’s also a large army on the other side of the border, ready to attack the southern Regalty. If we send troops, they’ll take the chance to attack, which also takes some of the pressure off us. I know my dad, and he wouldn’t give up this opportunity for me!"
Then, seeing that Ye Liuyun stopped talking and was in deep thought, the Witch said to him, "I’m really sorry. You saved me, but I can’t stop this war!"
Ye Liuyun suddenly looked up and asked her, "Where do you guys plan to attack?"
"Here, Dormir. We plan to claim the outside of Dormir as our Devil Clan’s territory. Of course, whether to move forward and then retreat depends on the situation!" The Witch didn’t hide anything from Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun suddenly laughed and said to the Witch, "Since y’all insist on fighting, we might as well work together!"
"Work together?" Witch looked at Ye Liuyun in confusion.
"My name’s Ye Liuyun," Ye Liuyun’s clone introduced himself.
"Huh? Oh... My name’s Tuomu Xingya," the Witch also introduced herself.
Apparently, she didn’t understand human customs very well and could only introduce her name as Ye Liuyun did.
Seeing that she didn’t understand, Ye Liuyun, with a smile, hinted to her, "Who’s the commander of that large army on the border battleground? Does this ring a bell?"
"It’s Ye Liuyun... Your names are the same! Wait, that’s you?!" Tuomu Xingya widened her eyes looking at him.
But when their gazes met, the Witch immediately averted her eyes. She felt somewhat scared looking into Ye Liuyun’s eyes as if they were about to swallow her up.
"Exactly. It’s me!" Ye Liuyun nodded in confirmation.
"How can you prove?" Tuomu Xingya curiously asked.
Ye Liuyun thought for a moment. Proving that the army belonged to him indeed posed some difficulties.
Suddenly, he remembered the Devil Beast Mountain and asked, "Have you heard of the Devil Beast Mountain?"
Witch nodded, "Of course! Didn’t it disappear?"
"I refined it. Relax, I’ll show you," Ye Liuyun said.
Tuomu Xingya thought for a moment, after all, Ye Liuyun saved her, and he wouldn’t harm her.
Hence, she was taken back into the Spatial World by Ye Liuyun.
"Does this prove?" Ye Liuyun asked again.
After observing the surroundings, the Witch said, "The atmosphere does feel like it. But Devil Dragon should be here..."
"I killed the bigger one and replaced it into this Devil Dragon Armour. The smaller one is still here. Devil Dragon, come here!"
After explaining to her, Ye Liuyun softly called out.
In this Spatial World, he could control everything, so his voice could be conveyed at will.
At his call, the Devil Dragon promptly soared into the air and flew towards Ye Liuyun.
Tuomu Xingya’s eyes widened. Ye Liuyun, on the other hand, took her hand and leaped onto the Devil Dragon, allowing it to carry them around the area.
"Does this prove?" Ye Liuyun asked.
"It proves your power. But I still have some doubts about your ability to mobilise an army," Tuomu Xingya replied.
"Then let’s set a time for dispatching troops. You’ll find out then," Ye Liuyun answered.
"Let’s go back first. That’s for my dad to decide, not me," Tuomu Xingya declared.
"Alright! For the time being, you stay here in this Spatial World. I’ll take you out of the city. Once I bypass the southern army, and let you out."
Having arranged the Witch’s situation, Ye Liuyun exited the Spatial World and headed towards the city’s southern gate.
The city’s southern gate only allowed the Devil Clan and devil cultivators to pass through. Ye Liuyun immediately released heavy Devil Qi and walked out the gate confidently.
After exiting the city, he summoned a flying vessel. Bypassing the military forces took him a couple of days, and it was only then did he released the Witch.
"Along the way, I’m gonna wipe out all 15 foreign races. Without getting rid of them, you’ll always be in danger and the Devil Clan won’t be in peace. You wanna return on your own, or you wanna go with me?" Ye Liuyun inquired.
"I’ll stay with you. I’m a good fighter, too! I can help you in battle!" The Witch then declared, "Besides, the Devil Clan’s not unbeatable. It’s safer for me to stay in your Spatial World. I’ll come out when you reach the main city!"
She perceived Ye Liuyun to be in the middle stage of the Fourth Realm, the same as her and thus felt that she could assist him.
Ye Liuyun agreed, deeming the Spatial World safer for the Witch.
Thereafter, Ye Liuyun, following the foreign race’s memories, began eliminating those foreign races one by one.
Each of these foreign races, at the very least, had control over a city lord. Each one of them was a force to reckon with.
Ye Liuyun also did his best to avoid escalating battles and causing panic.
Most of the battles were conducted by him leading the Witch, Tuomu Xingya, and some of the Devil Beasts into the field. He also used these opportunities to practice with these beasts and even prepared meals for them.
The Devil-sealing Stele was generally used to suppress those foreign races and then allowed Ye Liuyun to carry out soul searches and figure out who else needed to be dealt with.
The Devil Vines were reserved as a backup force, preventing anyone from escaping.
"What’s this stele for?"
"Is this the legendary man-eating vine?"
"Why are you so strong?"
Tuomu Xingya had many questions, but Ye Liuyun rarely explained his powers and his combat allies to her.
After observing Ye Liuyun’s handling of seven or eight cities, Tuomu Xingya gradually believed that Ye Liuyun might really be the leader of the battlefield frontier.
Before Ye Liuyun’s clone could lead the Witch to the Devil Clan’s main city, he received information from Mu Lianqing. The latter reported that the Devil Clan’s vanguard had set out, already fought with the vanguard of the southern army, suffering tens of thousands of casualties on both sides.
Of course, it was all considered a probing move before the main war.
The southern army already launched a full-line progression, pressing towards the boundary of the Devil Clan’s territory.
In the subsequent extermination of foreign races, Ye Liuyun sped up, letting the Devil-sealing Stele and the Devil Vines take action, swiftly eliminating the foreign races and the forces they cultivated. After that, they promptly rushed towards the Devil Clan’s main territory.
Still, there were three formidable foreign race figures within the main city. To avoid alerting them, Ye Liuyun signaled the Witch to lead the way. As for him, he donned his Concealcape and directly entered the residence of the Devil Clan’s head, only then releasing the Witch.
The Devil Clan’s head, Tuomu Qianglei, who was in the middle stage of the Sixth Realm, had not detected Ye Liuyun and was taken aback by their sudden appearance.
The Witch immediately recounted her abduction, her rescue by Ye Liuyun, and their journey of eliminating the foreign races to him.
