Chapter 1362: Be Extra Careful

Ye Liuyun had an ominous premonition; this Lone Star Auction House seemed not a good place.

The people here, when they act, are more like an assassin organization.

Although their attack skills aren't as covert as ordinary assassins, their manner of doing things is very much like assassins'.

Ye Liuyun tried again, once more using his Golden Pupil to cast an illusion and control a Martial Cultivator.

Sure enough, the restriction inside that Martial Cultivator's Sea of Consciousness immediately activated, blasting his Sea of Consciousness again.

Ye Liuyun didn't even have time to perform a Soul Search; he got no information at all.

"Maybe it's really an assassin organization hiding behind a sheep's head selling dog meat!"

Ye Liuyun secretly thought: "What about Xie Tianxiang then?"

"Why did he have me come here to find him?"

Actually, Ye Liuyun isn't particularly opposed to assassin organizations.

It's just that in future dealings with Xie Tianhong, he'll need to be more careful.

Soon, those Martial Cultivators were all taken down one by one by Ye Tiandao's single strike.

With Ye Tiandao's realm, wiping them out was quite easy.

Seeing the corpses all over the ground, Ye Liuyun also felt somewhat uneasy.

However, many more Martial Cultivators surged from all directions of the auction house, surrounding the entire place.

"I'm just here to find someone; do you really have to go to such lengths?"

Ye Liuyun also didn't want to keep killing.

At that moment, his Divine Sense suddenly detected Yi Na approaching from afar with several Yuan Dan Realm experts.

"Yi Na, you've finally come! Quickly tell your people to stop!"

Ye Liuyun sent a Transmission Voice to Yi Na from a distance.

Yi Na was far away, couldn't see Ye Liuyun's figure, and wasn't familiar with his Transmission Voice.

But while she was doubtful, she immediately had people only surround them, holding back from attacking.

Only when she got closer did she realize it was Ye Liuyun.

"Young Master Ye?"

"What's going on here?"

Yi Na didn't have the surrounding people withdraw; instead she directly questioned Ye Liuyun.

"I came to find you, but your steward wouldn't relay the message.

"I originally wanted to use an illusion to control him a bit, but I didn't expect him to die! Then your people came out killing, didn't listen to my explanation and just attacked, so I had to defend myself!"

Ye Liuyun explained.

"Young Master Ye, you claim self-defense and killed so many of us?"

Yi Na looked at the corpses scattered everywhere; although she smiled while speaking to Ye Liuyun, her tone carried a hint of killing intent.

Moreover, when she arrived, she discovered that some of her subordinates' Divine Sense had been controlled, making her suspicious that Ye Liuyun had ulterior motives and was probing them.

"Hmm?"

Ye Liuyun, seeing her speak like that, had been a bit embarrassed, but now he didn't care.

"Then what do you want?"

Ye Liuyun's tone instantly turned cold; he wasn't afraid of their threats.

"Miss, first ask him why he came to find you!"

A Martial Cultivator of the Yuan Dan Realm beside him reminded.

Yi Na also suddenly realized that Ye Liuyun's realm was not something these people could handle.

Although she wasn't afraid, she at least should get a clear answer.

From her previous contact with Ye Liuyun, she felt he shouldn't be a bloodthirsty killer; otherwise she wouldn't be alive today.

"I don't know what Young Master Ye seeks from this humble woman; any advice?"

Yi Na immediately put on a smile, asked Ye Liuyun, and her tone softened at once.

"I didn't come specially to find you.

"It was Xie Tianhong who sent me here to find him, saying that finding you would do."

Ye Liuyun said lightly.

"Xie Tianhong is……" Yi Na was about to ask who Xie Tianhong was, but suddenly froze, as if recalling something, then immediately changed her words: "Is that what he told you?"

"Otherwise?

"You think I came to find you?"

Ye Liuyun retorted sarcastically.

He noticed that Yi Na didn't seem familiar with the name Xie Tianhong, but after recalling it she seemed to fear that person.

Yi Na forced another smile, apologetically said to Ye Liuyun: "Young Master Ye, please be magnanimous, don't hold a petty woman like me to account; I'll have someone fetch him, please wait a moment."

After Yi Na finished speaking, she gave an elder a glance; that elder immediately turned and left.

Then Yi Na waved her hand, letting the people around disperse.

She also personally came over to apologize to Ye Liuyun, her attitude doing a complete 180-degree turn.

"Young Master Ye, it's been so long since we last met; I don't know where you've been all this time."

Yi Na accompanied Ye Liuyun in casual chat.

"I wouldn't dare trouble Miss Yi Na to keep me in mind!"

Ye Liuyun said it in a neutral tone, but Yi Na already sensed he was quite dissatisfied with her.

She also felt a bit regretful, thinking she had been overly agitated.

They hadn't chatted for a few sentences when Xie Tianhong hurried over; it seems he also lives not far from here.

Brother Ye, you really kept your promise—I've finally waited for you…… He greeted Ye Liuyun with a transmission voice from afar.

However, he hadn't finished speaking when he noticed many corpses on the scene, and his following words were also cut off.

What happened?

He hurriedly asked Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun had no choice but to explain it to him again.

So it was just a misunderstanding!

After Xie Tianhong found out, he also didn't take it to heart.

Fourth Young Master!

Yi Na saw him arrive, but she immediately rose and performed a salute.

Looks like this Xie Tianhong, this time his standing in the organization is not low!

Ye Liuyun secretly thought.

Xie Tianhong also didn't pay attention to Yi Na; he was just busy apologizing to Ye Liuyun.

Sorry, Young Master Ye, it's my fault—I didn't give them advance instructions, which caused this! I'll treat you to drinks as compensation; you mustn't take it to heart!

Not at all! I killed someone and offended Miss Yi Na—I should be the one apologizing!

Seeing Xie Tianhong's attitude was decent, Ye Liuyun also didn't hold it against him.

He merely mentioned Yi Na, only because of his earlier dissatisfaction, saying it offhand.

Xie Tianhong glanced at Yi Na, then laughed and said to Ye Liuyun, 'Don't mind her—women are always petty! Come on, let's go drink!'

Saying that, he made a gesturing invitation and warmly invited Ye Liuyun.

Let's go—I also happen to have something to discuss with you!

Ye Liuyun also went along willingly, no longer paying attention to Yi Na.

So he also didn't notice that when Yi Na heard Ye Liuyun and Xie Tianhong complaining about him, her face turned pale.

On the way, he also communicated via Divine Sense with the City Lord of Haotian City, Qiang Wudi.

What background do the Lone Star Auction House and Yi Na have?

Ye Liuyun asked Qiang Wudi.

Reporting to my master! The Lone Star is a major power; I previously didn't dare to investigate further.

As for Yi Na, she should be a person in charge here.

As for her position within that power, I'm not entirely clear either.

If my master needs it, I can continue to look into it further.

Since receiving a pill bestowed by Ye Liuyun last time, Qiang Wudi has become even more devoted to Ye Liuyun.
