Chapter 2208: Chapter 2208 Divine Soul Assasinate
Ye Liuyun looked at the just activated formation, and said helplessly. “The fight is over. What is the use in activating it now?”
He immediately took back the two severely injured Fairy Clan elders into his spatial world and fed each one a drop of Vital Waters to restore their wounds.
He did not rush to take the others into his spatial world but rather let them continue guarding outside.
At this moment, Song An asked Mo Ren directly. “Your surname is Mo? Where do you hail from?"
Ye Liuyun looked at Song An in confusion and glanced at Mo Ren.
“Could he really be a spy?”
Ye Liuyun did not fully believe it but felt that he should remain cautious regardless.
“Why do you ask, senior?” Mo Ren didn’t reply immediately but counter-questioned, "Just because my last name is Mo, you suspect that I tampered with the array?"
Song An just said lightly. “To my knowledge, the only family in the God Realm with the surname Mo is the Revival Dynasty!”
Mo Ren responded with a sneer. "I’m afraid that is going to disappoint you, senior. I am from the mortal realm!"
Qiong Qi also explained. "My disciple has been with me for two or three years! He absolutely is not from the Revival Dynasty!"
Song An just nodded his head and did not speak anymore. But Ye Liuyun could tell that he clearly did not believe him.
Ye Liuyun tried to smooth things over. “Our living area has been destroyed. We shall have to make do to live here in the main hall for now! The formation will remain activated to prevent anyone from sneaking a surprise attack.”
Very soon, a part of the city guards came to help rebuild the City Lord Manor.
A few days later, Xiao Yunfang also sent a batch of five thousand soldiers to assist in the reconstruction.
Later on, everyone returned to their own residences.
Song An even took special precautions to request Ye Liuyun to ask Qiong Qi to set up a defense formation for his residence. This formation should not only be able to defend against physical attacks, but also ward off divine soul-based attacks.
Then, he activated the defense formation and stayed inside, never leaving again.
He felt that Ye Liuyun did not trust him, so he took actions to remind him of that. At the same time, he was protecting himself to avoid being implicated by Ye Liuyun.
"Your subordinate is remarkably meticulous!" Qiong Qi laughed at Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun only smiled. "Being cautious is good. At least it can save one’s life!"
At this point, Ye Liuyun had also inducted all those martial cultivators into his spatial world. He then returned to his residence and activated his defense formation as well.
Only then, the defense formation of the main hall was turned off again.
Ye Liuyun also had Qiong Qi check the city defense formation.
While his two disciples were away, Qiong Qi modified the defense formations for both the main hall and the city. He even added some automatic trigger functions, in case of any eventuality.
Although he did not believe Song An’s speculation, he was apparently much more cautious than Ye Liuyun.
Then he did not return to the Ye Liuyun’s Xuankong stone of Ye Liuyun, instead he went back to practice with his two disciples and set up defense formations for them too.
Ye Liuyun didn’t know if Qiong Qi was angry because his disciples were suspected or gone to monitor Mo Ren.
At this moment, he wanted to calm his mind for cultivation, but images of Song An’s confrontation with Mo Ren kept appearing in his mind.
"Compose yourself!"
This is how Ye Liuyun evaluates Mo Ren’s performance.
He felt that unless Mo Ren was often wrongly accused, he would not appear so calm.
An ordinarily reserved person who spoke up more when being suspected indeed seemed somewhat strange.
Ye Liuyun did not want to doubt Qiong Qi’s disciple, but Song An’s caution was also not unreasonable.
"And how did these martial artists manage to sneak in?"
Ye Liuyun was reminded again of the sudden appearance of so many peak ninth-tier experts and wondered if there were even more in the city.
Therefore, he had his clone put on the concealcloak and secretly observe the city. The clone’s Golden Phantom Eyes could see the divine soul power of the martial practitioners. Even if someone used treasure to hide their tier, they could still be unearthed based on the strength of their divine soul power.
However, Ye Liuyun’s divine sense noticed one of his black-armored guards led a man in black robe walking straight towards his residence not long after his clone set off.
Ye Liuyun activated his Goledn Phantom Eyes and looked directly throught the cultivation room at that man. Surprisingly, he discovered that the man was a peak ninth-tier expert.
Moreover, he was a devil cultivator. He just temporarily hiding his Devil Qi. Looking around forty years old, with a pair of blood-shot eyes and seemed somewhat terrifying.
What surprised Ye Liuyun even more was that after his Golden Phantom Eyes were activated, he saw two more black-clothed, veiled figures following the man.
Both of these people were using techniques similar to the Xenocide-hidden Skill to hide in the black-robe man’s shadow.
Immediately through the slave mark, Ye Liuyun contacted the black-armored guard to verify the man’s identity.
However, the black-armored guard reported back that he was a guard sent by Yu Xiaofeng and there was definitely only one person.
"Huh? Did I fall under an illusion?" Ye Liuyun wondered.
He knew that Yu Xiaofeng definitely did not have such a martial cultivator under his command. He also found it impossible for the guard to be under control because the slaving seal was still in place.
Ye Liuyun immediately asked his clone to rush back and waited until the black-armored guard reported to Ye Liuyun that Yu Xiaofeng had sent someone to convey a confidential information. Ye Liuyun then used the slaving seal to notify the black-armored guard to have the man in black robe wait outside.
The guard also told the man something and then returned to his post.
This man in the black robe was Mo Sang, sent by Mo Xiaotian to assassinate Ye Liuyun.
After waiting for his clone to rush back, Ye Liuyun let Song An initiate the City Lord Manor’s defensive formation.
As soon as the defensive formation was activated, Mo Sang immediately had a bad feeling.
The two men in black hiding behind him immediately released their divine soul, rushing towards Ye Liuyun’s cultivation room.
The defensive formation of Ye Liuyun’s cultivation room could not block divine soul attacks and divine sense explorations. So their divine souls rushed directly into Ye Liuyun’s ocean of consciousness.
Ye Liuyun immediately launched a soul search on them. Unexpectedly, as soon as he started the soul search, their divine souls immediately shattered and all the memories disappeared. He could not find any information.
"Marvellous job! To be able to control my two subordinates in an instant!"
Mo Sang noticed it right away and no longer pretending. He lifted up the hat covering his head and looked directly at Ye Liuyun’s cultivation room.
A pair of beastly red eyes, flashing red light.
In Ye Liuyun’s ocean of consciousness, the Universal God Token immediately radiated a golden light to resist his illusion.
"Hmm? Ineffective?" Mo Sang was likewise astonished.
At this moment, Qiong Qi saw the defensive formation activated and the situation outside. He rushed out of the room and launched a divine soul attack on Mo Sang.
Mo Shang’s gaze turned, looking towards Qiong Qi’s divine soul.
The divine soul of Poor Strange Beast immediately stalled, then charged towards Ye Liuyun.
However, the Universal God Token would not kill Qiong Qi but brought him back to his sense.
"That was close! This guy’s Scarlet Illusion Technique is so powerful that even I was conned!" Qiong Qi said to Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun said, "Indeed, his Scarlet Illusion Technique is quite terrifying. Even you could fall in it with a glance with divine soul as powerful as yours!"
