Chapter 2150: Chapter 2150 Practice in the Central
Ye Liuyun had voluntarily removed the Slaving Seals he had previously placed on some of them, and even made some compensation to them in the form of supplies.
Only Elder Kurong, to whom he removed the Seal, but still made a mutual contract with, ensuring he would no longer act as an enemy to the Eastcloud Dynasty.
Later, Elder Kuyong expressed his admiration, "I never expected that you would be able to change the situation so quickly. Even the Fairy Clan had to step back!"
"Well, things are up to the people. I just happened to be lucky this time!" responded Ye Liuyun modestly.
Elder Kurong looked at him and nodded in admiration, "It’s rare to see someone who remains humble even in victory."
After staying in the Sect for a few days, Ye Liuyun finally returned to the regalty. As for Lin Luoyi and Lin Xiyao, they were retained by Jin Qingsong to help in alchemy jobs.
Once he got back, Ye Liuyun took a bit of time to rest and spend quality time with the women who helped him maintain order.
He had also taught the Phantom Illusion to Wu Qingcheng.
"I want to take advantage of the quiet period to wander around the central region. The Martial Arts Dao are thriving there, and the area is rich in resources! I also want to take a look at the Deliverance Hill.
In my absence, you should temporarily stand in to prevent anybody from making moves against the dynasty."
He also informed Wu Qingcheng and the others about the matter of the Fairy Clan saintess, asking them to keep an eye on their moves.
He left all 13 of ninth-realm elders from the Clan in the dynasty, keeping Pang Ren and the other 5 eight-realms with him.
All the other women, with their relatively low cultivation, didn’t ask to accompany him to the central region fearing they might become his burden.
Only Feng Hongxiu, under the pretense of assessing whether the central area was appropriate to open a branch, insisted that he take her along.
She wanted to take this opportunity to develop a closer relationship with him. Otherwise, she feared that over time he might forget about her with his busy schedule.
Ye Liuyun felt that her realm was not too bad, so he agreed.
Lei Ming and Dragon Lady were fighting in heat on the battlefield, so Ye Liuyun did not call them, letting them practice there. He only brought Feng Hongxiu, passed through the battlefield, and teleported to the central region.
But he still hid the pair of eyes with Phantom Ilusion to prevent being recognized. The 5 eighth-realms, including Yuan Bin, were also brought out. These people were disguised as elders and guards, convenient for sending them out to gather news and run errands.
His purpose for coming to the central region this time was merely to gain experience and level up. Thus, the city they teleported to was not the regalty but Soulspire City, which was nearest to Deliverance Hill.
At this time, the negotiation between the Fairy Clan and Zhongxing Dynasty hadn’t ended, so as the hunt on the Fairies.
The Dynasty’s hunting team had nearly been annihilated, and the Prince of God naturally would not let this go easily.
In the beginning, the Fairies did not admit they were responsible. But later, in order to keep the peace and ward off bad luck with money, they proposed compensation.
However, the Prince’s demand was too high, which they found it hard to accept. As a result, His Majesty was more convinced that they was responsible, just that they didn’t want to pay that much compensation.
Hence, the negotiations between them have been at a standstill with no progress.
Upon arrival, Ye Liuyun and the others were immediately inspected. Fortunately, most of the martial practitioners around Ye Liuyun were from the central area and not a Fairy, which made it easy to get past the inspection.
Only after they entered the city did they find that several bodies of the Fairy Clan were hung outside the city as a warning.
"I have indeed set them up pretty badly this time!" Ye Liuyun also lamented in his heart, surprised at how ruthlessly the Zhongxing Dynasty had acted.
After they entered the city, he started to get in touch with Mu Changtian.
Mu Changtian and his eldest son, Mu Liansheng, were settled here.
Ye Liuyun just wanted to learn about the Hill and have him as a guide.
Ever since Mu Changtian arrived in the Central Region, he had been rather downcast, hardly ever leaving the house. The change from a man who was once revered by everyone as the Prince of the South to now the father of a lowly servant, the difference was too great.
Mu Liansheng, was just a guard of the City Lord Manor with no significant power. Here, he could only be considered as barely making ends meet.
One day, Mu Liansheng was off duty. Noticing his father suddenly leaving the house, he curiously followed at a distance.
Mu Changtian was aware of the Slaving Seal that had been planted on his son.
There were quite a few soul cultivators in Soulspire. The City Lord was a locally renowned soul cultivation family.
Zhao Rongde was a powerful mid-ninth-realm soul cultivator expert. His soul power was far beyond that of a typical ninth-level martial practitioner.
His son, Zhao Tiangang, was even more special. He had mutated to have a pair of red pupils at the eighth level stage, known as Saint Redeyes to the public. His soul power was even comparable to that of his father.
So, as soon as Mu Changtian entered the City Lord Manor, his son asked for Zhao Tiangang’s help.
But while he could tell that Mu Changtian was being controlled, he was unable to remove Ye Liuyun’s Slaving Seal.
The one he planted was different, much stronger than the typical enslavement soul contract. Therefore, Zhao Tiangang studied it specifically at the time, but later dismissed it.
Mu Liansheng was helpless, he could hope only that the person controlling his father wouldn’t appear again.
When the day came that Mu Changtian unusually left the Manor, he was immediately alert.
Mu Liansheng had reached early-eighth-realm. Mu Changtian wouldn’t be able to detect him at all.
When he saw from afar his father bowing respectfully to Ye Liuyun, he immediately knew that it was him behind the spiritual restriction.
Even though he did not know the Seal’s specific term, he could confirm that his father was indeed under the control of Ye Liuyun.
However, he did not dare to act against Ye Liuyun and the others immediately. He was not only no match for these people, but also unable to break Ye Liuyun’s Seal. He was afraid that his soul-power was even stronger than that of Zhao Tiangang.
So he immediately put on an defensive relic and pretended to be strolling on the street, where he ran into his father.
"Father? Why are you here? Who are these people?"
Mu Liansheng feigned surprise and asked his father.
"Liansheng?" Mu Changtian was also a bit surprised, but he calmly replied, "These gentlemen are my friends, just arrived in the city. I’ve been showing them around, you go ahead with your own business!"
Mu Changtian wanted to dismiss his son.
But he pretended to be enthusiastic and greeted Ye Liuyun and the others, asking for his name.
For safety reasons, Ye Liuyun made up a name on the spot, calling himself Liang Ming.
"Mr. Liang, it’s rare that my father has friends visiting the city. He doesn’t know many people here nor get out much, he is often bored.
Since you’re here, why not stay for a few more days to keep my father company. Although my place is small, it can certainly accommodate you all. I hope you won’t find it shabby.
As for the situation here, I am much more familiar with it than my father! It might be more suitable for me to serve as your guide!"
