Chapter 2148: Chapter 2148 Attack of the Foreign Race
A few days after Ye Liuyun met with Liang Xue, the negotiation with the Fairy Clan failed to reach any agreement.
Eventually, it was simply because the Fairy Clan did not want to suffer any losses. They wanted to retrieve everything they had lost and expected the Eastcloud Dynasty to compensate for their losses.
Ye Liuyun had implied that he could agree to withdraw from their territory, but the resources they had occupied during the battle would not be returned. This would serve as a penalty for the Fairy Clan’s provocation to the Eastcloud Dynasty.
As for the war casualties, both sides had endured losses. Ye Liuyun would not take responsibility for this.
Since the Fairy Clan showed no sincerity in the negotiations, there was no reason for them to continue.
Yu Xiaofeng, under Ye Liuyun’s instructions, terminated the negotiations with the Fairy Clan and ushered the Fairy Clan’s negotiation team out of Klanning City.
Seeing that the negotiation had reached a dead end, the elders of the Fairy Clan resumed their backup plan of resorting to brute strength and started assembling a team of high-level martial practitioners for their movement.
Thus, Ye Liuyun had to bid goodbye to Liang Xue to start his operations.
He donned his Concealcape and went to find Xiao. Xiao, thanks to his position, was able to approach the powerful experts. He led Ye Liuyun to them one by one.
The Fairy Clan would never expected anyone would dare to assassinate their elders within their base.
Ye Liuyun’s movements were incredibly swift. As soon as his clone identified a strong Divine Soul, it would instantly exterminate the person.
For those with slightly weaker Divine Soul, Ye Liuyun and his clone would launch a Divine Soul attack, and then absorb the person into his Spatial World.
Within a day, Ye Liuyun had attacked twenty-three high-level Fairy Clan martial practitioners, seven of whom were branded with Slaving Seal, two of them advanced ninth level and five of them intermediate ninth level. The rest were killed instantly.
Even Xiao was terrified by what he witnessed.
"This is the last one, bring me to Elder Qingyuan," Ye Liuyun was ready to make his move on Liang Xue’s master.
After hearing Liang Xue’s statement, he suspected something was awry with Elder Qingyuan.
Xiao passed his worry to Ye Liuyun with some trepidation, "Elder Qingyuan is a formidable Fairy Clan’s Expert Elder. Even if you try to hide, you will not escape her."
"I don’t care!" Ye Liuyun was nonchalant. "Even if she discovers me, she won’t be able to evade my attack."
Nonetheless, Ye Liuyun had arranged with his clone. His Clone would remain outside while he stayed inside his Spatial World.
Xiao had no choice but to obey Ye Liuyun’s command and led him to Elder Qingyuan.
By the time Ye Liuyun arrived, Elder Qingyuan was relaxingly sipping tea in her small courtyard.
Ye Liuyun glanced at her, noting that she was a woman in her thirties and had reached the advanced ninth level.
"Elder Qingyuan, I have some information about the saintess that I need to report to you!" Xiao respectfully reported to Elder Qingyuan.
Elder Qingyuan, however, disregarded him, instead turning her attention to the Clone, "I’m surprised to see you here. A martial practitioner of the mundane world had developed so rapidly!"
Her voice was refreshingly pleasant and she did not seem as aloof as Liang Xue had described her.
Xiao shuddered, not expecting to be discovered by Elder Qingyuan before they even approached her yard.
The Clone showed no signs of panic of the exposure, but asked Elder Qingyuan, "What is the purpose of the saintess?"
Elder Qingyuan chuckled before replying with another question, "If I don’t tell you, would I lose the opportunity to speak again?"
The Clone did not respond, but was ready to strike.
The opponent was a seasoned veteran at the advanced ninth level, with formidable attack power. He had to be prepared for any unforeseen circumstance.
His Golden Phantom Eyes were fixed on Qingyuan’s virtuoso. The moment she tried to activate her genuine energy, the clone would emit white light to destroy her.
Qingyuan didn’t wait for Ye Liuyun’s response, and chuckled at herself, "The role of the Saintess is a secret guarded by the Fairy Clan. Few elders of the Fairy Clan know about it, and I can’t tell you."
"But I can tell you that if you dare to take her away, the Fairy Clan will mobilize full force to seize her back."
Having stated that, Qingyuan fixed her gaze on Ye Liuyun, "I am curious to see what abilities you possess that have you advance so rapidly. You even have the confidence to kill me before I make a move!"
Hearing this, Ye Liuyun realised that the Saintess’ role was more than just the spiritual leader of the Fairy Clan.
However, he would not be able to obtain more information from Elder Qingyuan.
Noticing that Ye Liuyun didn’t make a move, Qingyuan was about to use her genuine energy to initiate an attack.
Since Ye Liuyun had come for her and couldn’t kill her, it wouldn’t;t be right for her to just let him go unscathed.
However, as soon as her genuine energy showed signs of movement, a beam of white light hit her directly in the head, burning a large hole through her head.
Ye Liuyun has lately utilised this technique countless times and has mastered its usage to perfection.
Subsequently, he took Elder Qingyuan’s corpse and tossed it into his Spatial World.
"Let’s leave now!" Ye Liuyun urged Xiao to leave the Fairy Clan swiftly.
"Who is that? How dare you kill the Fairy Clan’s Elder?"
A loud yell pierced in the air.
Presumably, the entire Fairy Clan could hear the yelling.
Ye Liuyun realized that their actions had been exposed.
He hastily hid Xiao in his Spatial World, while simultaneously releasing all the Foreign Races from his spatial world.
Instantly, experts of the ninth level rushed in to investigate, but the foreign race had set up a battle formation and launched an attack on them.
The two Elders of the Fairy Clan who had just rushed over were surprisingly wiped out in a single strike by the foreign races.
Ye Liuyun took advantage of the commotion to escape using Spatial Folding.
"Foreign races attack!"
"Foreign races have broken in!"
Elder kept on alerting the entire Fairy Clan. The entire Fairy Clan was instantly thrown into chaos. Countless martial practitioners broke out of their meditative states and surged out to fight against the foreign races.
Ye Liuyun used his Spatial Force to flee the Fairy Clan.
"Trying to flee? Let’s see if you are faster than me!" An Elder in the advanced ninth level spotted Ye Liuyun and pursued him.
His clone initially planned to eliminate him with a beam of white light, but when he saw three more elders in the advanced ninth level pursuing, he feared he couldn’t take them all out at once and had no choice but to continue running at full speed.
"Huh? The level of this foreign race didn’t seem high, but its Spatial Force is strong!" One of the elders chasing after him exclaimed.
They all assumed that Ye Liuyun was just another foreign race causing trouble. They assumed that Ye Liuyun was just another foreign race causing trouble.
"Don’t be careless, maybe he is concealing his true level!" One of the elders reminded everyone.
Four elders in the advanced ninth level were closing in. Their Spatial Force was impressive as well. With their high level, Ye Liuyun was on the brink of being caught.
He had been continuously watching his back with his Divine Sense and noticed only these four were chasing after him. So he halted his running, turned around and shot his white beam.
Two of the elders couldn’t dodge in time and had their bodies pierced through by the light.
The other two elders were stunned by the scene, not knowing what item the opponent was using. They immediately brought out their treasures for defence. However, before they could do anything, the white light got to them simultaneously. It pierced through their body along with the treasure they had in hand.
His clone waved his hand, collected all their corpses and continued running wildly in fear of being captured by the other elders of the Fairy Clan.
