Chapter 2137: Chapter 2137 Show No Weakness
Ye Liuyun gathered all the women, including Wu Qingcheng, and released the martial practitioners he had recently obtained.
Altogether, there was a total of 47 ninth-realm experts.
"These people will be the strength that guards our dynasty in the future!"
Ye Liuyun appointed Jing Yong, the former leader of the hunting squad, as the leader of these experts, and Zhang Heng as the deputy leader, who would handle the daily management of the group.
There was also an order for Wu Qingcheng to arrange for these people to dress up in the Dark Legion’s armour and wear masks to prevent them from being recognized and leaking information.
The women were quite shocked when they saw that Ye Liuyun had brought back so many ninth-realm experts.
"Why did he suddenly bring back so many experts?"
Wu Qingcheng felt that Ye Liuyun wouldn’t risk doing such thing without a reason.
Ye Liuyun explained the situation about the Fairy Clan and the Zhongxing Royal Management failed in their treasure hunt, and the Clan’s subsequent idea of attacking the dynasty.
"Will our fight with the Fairy Clan start soon?" Everyone asked concernedly.
He slowly shook his head and analyzed, "These people alone aren’t enough to confront the Fairy Clan! Plus, we’ve just stabilized, so it’s not appropriate to stir up a major conflict with them.
They can only serve to protect us temporarily, and stop the Clan from becoming too reckless. Once they see that we have so many experts, they’ll think twice about the cost of confronting us head-on."
"What if they remain persistent?" Wu Qingcheng asked, seeking to clarify his attitude, so as to make proper adjustments when facing the Clan.
"Then we fight!" Ye Liuyun declared, "When dealing with such powerful forces, the more we back down, the further they’ll push."
"Alright, we know what to do now! And you? Are you planning to stay in the dynasty for now, or are you going back to the battlefield?" Wu Qingcheng asked again.
"I still need to return. If the Clan wants to deal with me, they will continue to send their disciples after me. I can deal with them more conveniently there.
Plus, going to the battlefield gives me access to more advanced resources. This way, everyone’s cultivation resources can be solved," Ye Liuyun explained to them.
"You shouldn’t worry about us right now. First, increase your strength, then worry about us later!" Fyeng Wanru immediately instructed Ye Liuyun.
"Yes, look at your current opponents. They are all ninth-realms. Only when your strength is stronger can we be at ease."
"Only when your strength increases will others not dare to plot against you or the dynasty!"
The women all spoke at once, urging Ye Liuyun to first increase his strength and not always think about them. Moreover, now that the dynasty is gradually on the right track, they were not lacking resources.
Ye Liuyun also repeatedly agreed, stayed in the dynasty to accompany everyone for a few days, and then with his original face, he immediately returned to the battlefield, attracting everyone’s attention.
At the moment, the three battlefields were not swarming with foreign races. Ye Liuyun went around each one and saw that Ye Tiandao and his soldiers had increased their realm and gained practice, which pleased him.
He simply left Lei Ming and Dragon Lady here to fight alongside Ye Tiandao and others.
He only took with him the five captured eighth-realms, Vermilion Bird and other magical beasts, and returned to Li Hongtao’s base, waiting for the arrival of the next batch of foreign races.
In this time, he also let Ye Ling store up more Spirit Crystals.
In a few days, the gilded armour was ready and sent back from the Exchange Hall.
The hunting squad’s gilded armour had long been stripped off by Ye Liuyun. He had Wu Qingcheng distribute a set to each person around him, and the remaining ones were kept for spare.
Ye Liuyun didn’t need to send the remaining ones back right away, so he simply kept them for himself. He still had dozens of ruined ones in his hands, all stripped off from the men he had killed.
Ye Liuyun had already refined them all into a whole block of gold, keeping them for future use.
Soon, the next batch of foreign race arrived at the battlefield, and Ye Liuyun was busy again.
A few days later, the team of expert sent by the Fairy Clan also arrived at the Eastcloud Dynasty.
The person they dispatched this time was a late-ninth-realm elder Luo Yi, a powerful figure from the era when the Clan was conquering the world. He had a high reputation in the Clan with esteemed strength.
He hadn’t left the Clan for many years. His understanding of the outside world was still stuck in the era of many years ago. The rapid advancement of martial practitioners in the East left him with a feeling of deep emotion.
However, his mindset couldn’t change in a split second. He still believed that the Fairy Clan was as strong as before.
The team also included ninth, eighth and seventh-realms, each a dozen of them.
Moreover, all the powerful forces supporting Ye Liuyun had withdrawn long ago, so Luo Yi believed even more that this mission was definitely going to be a success.
His plan was to take people in the palace hostage after entering, and thus force Ye Liuyun to return and hand over the treasure.
The Fairy Clan was also planning to use this opportunity to strike at the Eastcloud Dynasty, letting everyone know that in the East, the Fairy Clan was the supreme existence. Even a dynasty was at their mercy.
So after arriving at the regalty, they didn’t disembark from the flying vessel, but directly transmitted a message asking Ye Liuyun to come out and greet them.
They knew that Ye Liuyun was not there; several women were managing in his stead. They thought that by intimidating these women, they would obediently obey their commands.
However, the response they received made them embarrassed themselves.
"If you want to see the Eastern Cloud Overlord, disembark from the flying vessel and enter the palace for an audience! The city guards are not responsible for reporting visitors!" A city guard commander replied directly under Yu Xiaofeng’s instruction.
Wu Qingcheng had long informed Yu Xiaofeng, and even had them all prepared for combat. Even Xuanyuan Ling, who led the business affairs in the Fairy Clan region, had already withdrawn in advance.
The city now had been rearranged, even the walls have been rebuilt.
Back then, when the Eastern Royal Management intended to ambush Ye Liuyun’s crystal cannons in the Hidden Mist City, he had already armed his city guard with them. Therefore, at this moment, countless crystal cannons, already loaded with Alora Crystals, were aimed at the Fairy Clan’s flying vessel.
Luo Yi sneered, instructing his men, "What a man! I’ve long heard that he is gutsy and audacious. To see that today, it turns out he really is arrogant. He actually dares to look down upon the Fairy Clan!
In that case, we’ll just fly directly above his palace and see how they handle it! Let us advance slowly so that everyone can see how the Fairy Clan deal with them!"
Thus, the flying vessel was launched again, slowly heading towards the direction of the palace.
"Fire!"
The city guard commander didn’t hesitate and commanded to open fire with the crystal cannons.
