Chapter 2068: Chapter 2068 Anxious
Upon hearing Feng Chen start to talk, Ye Liuyun knew that he was here because of Li Xingrou.
With a light laugh, he asked Feng Chen, "What? Have you been quite idle lately, even bothering to meddle in such petty affairs?"
The way you talk! Although you have not joined my camp, you also do not belong to Murong Tian’s people! It is quite normal for me to remind you when I gain new info, isn’t it?
You must not underestimate Li Xingrou! She’s not just Murong Tian’s woman, but also the princess of the Eastern Dynasty!"
"So what?" Ye Liuyun replied dismissively.
"Goodness, you have no idea how deep the waters at Xuan Tian Sect run, junior brother. If you offend him, how will you carry on in Xuan Tian Sect in the future?
In my opinion, you should temporarily bear it, isn’t it White Black to refine a pill for her or perhaps directly sell her the alchemical recipe? You could make a big profit as well, isn’t that great?"
Speaking of the crux of the matter, Feng Chen, under the pretence of considering Ye Liuyun’s best interests, made it hard to pick holes in his arguments.
"This guy really knows how to put on an act!" Ye Liuyun thought to himself, feeling it might be time to get rid of him.
Then Ye Liuyun frowned and said to Feng Chen in a serious tone, "Feng Chen, out of respect for you as a saint son, I allowed you in. Whatever issues you have with Murong Tian are none of my business! I don’t want to get involved in your affairs.
As for pleading on behalf of Li Xingrou, it’s certainly not your place! If there’s nothing important, I would rather you not visit me with such pointless chatter anymore! Qingyan, see him out!"
As Ye Liuyun spoke, he allowed the Liger beast outside to release pressure towards Feng Chen directly.
"Eh? Junior brother, I’m being nice, yet you’re getting upset?" Feng Chen was somewhat baffled, having not expected such a great reaction from Ye Liuyun.
However, Ye Liuyun simply turns his back and walked away, going back to continue his cultivation.
"Please leave!" Qingyan immediately scooted Feng Chen out.
The pressure of the lion tiger beast sufficiently frightened Feng Chen, making him too afraid to stay on. He immediately fled from Leaf Liuyun’s private courtyard.
"This young man is truly impervious to persuasion!" Feng Chen sighed helplessly, only able to report truthfully to Li Xingrou.
"We’re doomed!" Upon hearing this, Li Xingrou was out of ideas!
She gazed at the last Youth Retaining Pill in her hand, spacing out for a long time.
"Ai! No wonder everyone says, ’offend anyone but never a Pill Master!’"
She let out a long sigh and dismissed the disciples who were squatting outside the Pill Hall.
"If there’s really no other way, I’ll have to beg him again!"
But she had been so hard-hitting and caused such a ruckus; going to Leaf Liuyun for help now seemed somewhat shameless.
At this time, she saw the two guards beside her.
Both guards were assigned to her by the Eastern Dynasty. They were not at the eighth stage, but with their late-seventh stage abilities, they would be enough to deal with Leaf Liuyun and his beast.
After some thought, she decided to try once more since she was unwilling to bow down to Ye Liuyun.
She called over the two guards, instructing them to quietly ambush Leaf Liuyun at night. She cautioned them, "Without making any sound, capture and bring Leaf Liuyun back. Make sure the Elders of the Pill Hall don’t find out!"
News from Li Jian and others reached Leaf Liuyun almost instantly. He learned that the disciples who were waiting outside of the Pill Hall had retreated.
"Li Xingrou has one last pill!"
Ye Liuyun calculated the time and had his clone put on the Concealcape. With Ning Fei and Mo Hai, they stood guard inside the private courtyard.
He was worried that Li Xingrou, feeling pressed for time, might send masters to sneak attack him.
And indeed, Ye Liuyun’s prediction came true. In the middle of the night, Li Xingrou sent two of her close bodyguards to sneak into the Danta and approached Ye Liuyun’s place.
His clone immediately detected their presence. However, these two men were equipped with artefacts that prevent divine soul attacks. They had taken precautions because Elder Kurong of the Northsky Sect was well-skilled in launching such attacks.
Ye Liuyun had no choice but to wait for them to enter the courtyard, then let Ning Fei and Mo Hai take control of them.
These two bodyguards initially focused on the Lion-Tiger beast, and they were ready to strike as soon as they stepped into the courtyard.
"Roar!"
The Lion-Tiger beast, having been forewarned by Ye Liuyun, let out a roar as a warning, causing the whole Danta to shake.
Before the bodyguards could react, they were restrained with their shoulders held down and a realm’s pressure released to the point where they could not move. Their defence artefacts were forcibly removed.
The clone immediately launched a soul attack, devouring both of their souls.
Soon after, Ye Liuyun, accompanied by Qingyan, rushed out and took his clone as well as Ningfei and Mohai into the space world.
The roar of the Liger attracted Jin Qingsong.
Old administrators and elders of the Danta also hurried over to check the situation.
"What happened?" Jin Qingsong called out to Ye Liuyun’s place as he rushed over.
"Master, we were attacked, but my pet beast discovered it!" Ye Liuyun responded.
"What?" Jin Qingsong was enraged upon hearing this.
"Who dared to lay a finger on my disciple within the sect, if I catch him, I swear I’ll skin him alive!"
Jin Qingsong burst into Ye Liuyun’s private yard, seeing that Ye Liuyun was safe and sound, his heart eased a bit.
He gave a nod to the other elders, and then noticed some people examining two corpses on the ground.
"Late seventh stage?" Jin Qingsong wondered aloud.
"Thankfully, their spirit power was relatively weak, or else I wouldn’t be able to handle them!" Ye Liuyun explained.
One of the managing elders reported to Jin Qingsong, "They should not be our sect disciples! None of our disciples has such a high level. And based on their age, they aren’t likely to be our disciples either. Moreover, there is the eastern kingdom’s guard uniform inside their Interspatial Ring... "
"Have you offended anyone from the eastern kingdom lately?" Jin Qingsong asked Ye Liuyun.
Pretending to ponder for a moment, Ye Liuyun finally spoke as though he just remembered, "Bai Tianfeng came earlier today and I drove him away!"
Then Ye Liuyun repeated to Jin Qingsong the exact words Feng Chen said when he came to find him twice.
"I thought he was trying to stir up trouble, so I drove him away without being polite!", Ye Liuyun explained.
"Mm, you did well!" Jin Qingsong nodded in approval.
Considering the matter involved Li Xingrou and Saint Feng Chen, he couldn’t deal with it lightly. However, he must ensure that these people dare not act against Ye Liuyun in the future.

Jin Qingsong ordered Ye Liuyun and several managing elders to take the two bodies and head to the Enforcement Hall of the sect.
Bring the bodies, let’s head to the Enforcement Hall!" Jin Qingsong ordered Ye Liuyun and several managing elders to take the two bodies and head to the Enforcement Hall of the sect. The Sword-controlling Elder was the enforcement elder of the Enforcement Hall.

Upon hearing that Chen Feng got into trouble, he immediately contacted Ye Liuyun, worrying it might affect Ye Liuyun’s plans. He asked about the situation and how to handle it.
"Enforce justice and severely punish the culprits," Ye Liuyun responded with those simple words.
