Chapter 2016: Chapter 2016 Golden Opportunity
The Divine Sense connection between Ye Liuyun and his clone was immediately severed. To be precise, they could no longer be considered as being in the same space.
Only the Great Expert’s Divine Sense was not hindered as he’d refined that treasure. Then there was Ye Liuyun and his clone, who could still see each other.
Covered under the protective effect of the big carriage, Ye Liuyun held Feng Hongxiu in his arms and shrunk within the wings, not daring to show his face.
Despite the wings being an Eighth Realm artifact, the bombardment from numerous martial practitioners caused Ye Liuyun to spit out blood immediately.
Finally, he had personally experienced the strength of an Eighth Realm martial practitioner!
"Everyone, halt!"
Jyang Yuan immediately instructed the others to cease their actions, and the other martial practitioners stopped as well.
Jyang Yuan was also worried that he might kill Ye Liuyun directly, voiding the chance of reclaiming his own Divine Soul.
"Dude, you walked right into my trap and still refuse to surrender? Hiding inside your artifact is useless. How long can you withstand our attacks?"
Seeing no one attacking him anymore, Ye Liuyun somewhat heaved a sigh of relief and peeked out through a crack of the wings toward Jyang Yuan.
Suddenly, he realised that there was only Jyang Yuan alone outside.
"This is a perfect opportunity to kill him!"
Unfortunately, Ye Liuyun was currently not in the same space as his clone, so their thoughts weren’t in sync.
Moreover, inside Jyang Yuan’s artifact, his clone could not hear his voice. Ye Liuyun didn’t even dare to look in the direction of his clone, in case he accidentally revealed its location.
Now, all he could do was rely on whether his clone could seize this opportunity.
"Why don’t you sign a master-servant pact with me? Though your realm is lower, you’re not worthless. At least I can use you somewhere!"
At this moment, not only did Jyang Yuan wish to get back his own Divine Soul, but he also wanted to make all of Ye Liuyun’s soldiers into his own force.
He had heard these past few days that the military strength of Ye Liuyun’s army was extremely formidable. Moreover, Ye Liuyun still had hundreds of thousands of armies at the border.
With these armies, he wouldn’t have to endure anymore and could simply replace the Emperor of the Eastern Sea. Previously, he only had martial practitioners while still lacking military powers. However, having obtained these armies now, his ambition to become a king could finally be realized.
"Let me think it over!" Ye Liuyun was afraid that Jyang Yuan would attack immediately, therefore he could only try his best to stall for time.
"Alright. you have 15 mins to think!" Jyang Yuan was in a pleasant mood, so he instantly agreed.
However, the moment he finished his sentence, a beam of light, black and white in color shot from the side directly at his head.
This ray was even faster than Feng Hongxiu’s signature move, hitting Jyang Yuan in a lightning strike. Without having the time to react, Jyan Yuan’s whole head, together with his Divine Soul, was completely disintegrated.
Ye Liuyun’s clone also heaved a big sigh of relief, afraid that if he missed, it would result in him wasting his Divine Soul and advance energy.
Advance energy could still be supplemented, but these Divine Soul Forces couldn’t be recovered that easily. Although he could control the usage now, the consumption was tremendous. It took at least a dozen more Divine Soul Forces of Seventh Realm martial practitioners to replenish them.
Then, Ye Liuyun stripped off Jyang Yuan’s outerwear, revealing gilded armour. Lying underneath was Jyang Yuan’s clone, also clad in gilded armour.
Jyang Yuan’s virtuoso was dug out by Ye Liuyun and thrown to the demon in Spatial World.
He then made another cut on Jyang Yuan’s neck, burning the part attacked by the beam of the Golden Phantom’s eyes to prevent others from discovering the cause of Jyang Yuan’s death.
Jyang Yuan’s Interspatial Ring was also removed. After a quick scan inside with his Divine Sense, Ye Liuyun was taken aback.
That was because there were two middle-stage Eighth Realm martial practitioners inside Jyang Yuan’s Interspatial Ring.
Thanks to the clone attacking directly with the Golden Phantom Eyes technique, causing Jyang Yuan to get caught off guard. Otherwise, once he had a chance to react, killing him would have been a true challenge!
Yet, these two martial practitioners now belonged to Ye Liuyun.
The clone immediately refined the Interspatial Ring, planning to deal with them later.
Both of the two early-stage Seventh Realm Dragophants, who had been trained, wouldn’t dare to act rashly without their master’s summon and thus obediently stood still. Directly, they were planted a Slaving Seal by Ye Liuyun.
Afterward, the clone immediately started refining Jyang Yuan’s large carriage.
The martial practitioners inside Jyang Yuan’s artifact could originally sense their Divine Soul contract with him. These martial practitioners were directly controlled by Jyang Yuan.
The moment the contract disappeared, they all were stunned and began to communicate with each other through Divine Sense.
“What happened? Why did my contract with the Great Expert suddenly disappear?"
"Mine too! Did something happen to him?"
"No idea! We can’t contact him now either!"
"Nobody moves! The Great Expert is always inscrutable, and we’re still in his treasure, there’s no possibility of turning over. Let’s just wait and see!"
Right now, they all felt a sense of liberation, yet none of them dared to cause any trouble as they were still in Jyang Yuan’s treasure.
"Is this what you meant when you said you could save me?"
With Ye Liuyun holding her, Feng Hongxiu looked up at Ye Liuyun. Seeing blood at the corner of his mouth, she even reached out to wipe it for him!
At this point, although the clone hadn’t fully refined the treasure, Ye Liuyun’s Golden Phantom Eyes had already seen what was happening outside.
So right now, he wasn’t worried about his own safety, or that of Feng Hongxiu.
Laughing, he said to Feng Hongxiu, "What’s the rush? It’s not time yet!"
Feng Hongxiu then asked Ye Liuyun, "What’s your plan later?"
"What do you think I’ll do?" Ye Liuyun asked Feng Hongxiu in return.
Upon hearing this, Feng Hongxiu didn’t respond to Ye Liuyun, but she softly said, "Thank you for coming to my rescue! I’m sorry I got you into trouble instead of protecting you.
No matter what decision you make, I’ll fulfill my promise. Even if I die in battle, I’ll never become Jyang Yuan’s servant!"
"Trust me! We’ll both be fine. I said I’ll rescue you, and I’ll do it!" Ye Liuyun was worried that Feng Hongxiu would do something impulsive, so he dared not let go.
Before long, his clone had done refining the large carriage treasure and began communicating with Ye Liuyun.
"The martial practitioners inside, cannot be wasted!"
Both Ye Liuyun and his clone’s minds coincided. This was their golden opportunity to enhance their Divine Soul Force.
Together, they each released a Divine Soul, launching an attack on one of the martial practitioners at the Eighth Realm.
Inside the space shrouded by the large carriage, it was pitch black. Only Ye Liuyun and his clone, with unobstructed vision, could make precise attacks.
Ye Liuyun and his clone directly tore that man’s Divine Soul into Ye Liuyun’s Ocean of Consciousness. As for the martial practitioner’s physical body, it fell to the ground with a plop.
Immediately after, Ye Liuyun attacked another martial practitioner at the Eighth Realm.
"What happened?"
"What’s going on?"
"Sir, why is someone dead?"
These people did not know whether it was Ye Liuyun’s doing or Jyang Yuan’s, so they could only ask Jyang Yuan.
Ye Liuyun’s clone outside also mimicked Jyang Yuan’s voice using the Phantom Illusion technique, yelling to the inside, "Nothing. Just cleaning up some people who are plotting rebellion."
At his words, others thought that Jyang Yuan was taking the opportunity to test them, thus they dared not utter a word. They could only hope that they were not the next ones to be killed.
