Chapter 1383: Clashing Counterpoints
"Brother Xie, won't you recommend me!"
Unexpectedly, Ye Liuyun completely ignored him and instead began a conversation with Xie Tianhong behind him.
"Brother Ye, this is my father, also a guide of the Demon Path! Aren't you showing respect?"
Xie Tianhong, seeing that Ye Liuyun ignored his father, immediately pressed the matter.
"If you choose to treat a thief as your father, that's your business! I will never pay respects to a Foreign Tribe!"
Ye Liuyun said calmly.
"What did you say?"
Xie Tianhong was first startled, then unleashed True Essence Power to attack Ye Liuyun.
"Hm?"
The Foreign Tribe suddenly spoke, glaring at Xie Tianhong.
Xie Tianhong immediately deflated, hurriedly explaining: "He dared to insult my father; I was only trying to punish him…"
"With me here, are you even needed?"
"Step aside for me!"
The Foreign Tribe's tone left no room for doubt.
Xie Tianhong dared not argue further.
"Yes!"
He gave a single assent and moved to the end of the Demon Cultivator's row.
"It seems that, in the eyes of the Foreign Tribe, Xie Tianhong holds no real standing! If he still doesn't reflect, I'll have to eliminate him as well later!"
Ye Liuyun thought to himself.
The Foreign Tribe glanced at Ye Liuyun, then laughed and asked, "Before the Human Martial Cultivator mass‑eradicated our Demon Cultivators, don't you seek revenge?"
Ye Liuyun looked at him and retorted, "I know about the extermination of demons.
But you can't be considered a Demon Cultivator, can you?"
Moreover, without you, there wouldn't be any demon‑extermination business!"
"Young man, I may respect your daring, but that doesn't mean I allow you to keep fooling around."
The Foreign Tribe first threatened Ye Liuyun.
Then he added, "Although I'm not a Demon Cultivator, the Demon Path doesn't necessarily require Demonic Cultivation! That doesn't prevent me from becoming the leader of the Demon Cultivators."
"Demon Cultivators were originally part of this Human Martial Cultivator world, as were Demon Beasts! Yet you alone aren't! Just a Foreign Tribe's Alien Evil Artifact, how can you claim leadership in the human world?"
"If you're gathering slaves, just say you're gathering slaves; don't dress yourself up so prettily!"
Ye Liuyun was not at all courteous to the Foreign Tribe.
The Foreign Tribe also guessed that Ye Liuyun must have a way and had communicated with Man Shu.
He glanced at Xie Tianhong and instantly thought he was a complete waste.
Man Shu would hand over the crucial Xuecheng key to Ye Liuyun!
If he weren't still useful, he would have slapped Xie Tianhong to death by now.
Under his glance, Xie Tianhong broke out in a cold sweat.
"Were you tempted by that Snow Tribe woman?"
"The Snow Tribe are masters of deception! Moreover, to us humans, the Snow Tribe are the Foreign Tribe, aren't they?"
"Yes, both are Foreign Tribes, but the gap is huge! One lives in seclusion, yet suffered annihilation, while the other roams, seizing resources, treating humans as livestock, as slaves…"
Ye Liuyun, upon saying this, shook his head with a sigh.
He spoke to the Foreign Tribe without any courtesy, immediately countering point for point, each sentence a rebuttal.
"Audacious! Who gave you the nerve to spout such words before me?"
The Foreign Tribe, angered by him, also became somewhat furious!
Mainly because Ye Liuyun learned his secret.
Thus the choices he offered Ye Liuyun were only two.
Either Ye Liuyun voluntarily absorbs the evil aura and becomes his slave, or he tears Ye Liuyun apart to make him his food.
"In our human world, the ones who are audacious are you Foreign Tribe's Alien Evil Artifacts!"
Ye Liuyun shouted back loudly.
The Foreign Tribe, burning with anger, stared at Ye Liuyun, and after a while, suddenly laughed.
"Ha ha, you kid want to die?
Not that easy!"
Speaking, he produced a Foreign Tribe Primordial Pill.
Inside the Pill was filled with Foreign Tribe energy and an evil aura.
Holding the Pill, he told Ye Liuyun, "Absorb the energy inside, and you'll survive; otherwise, you'll become their dish!"
The Foreign Tribe pointed at the Demon Beast beside them, threatening Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun, hearing this, also laughed, "Is this another good thing?"
"Since you're giving me energy, I'll of course absorb it!"
"Fine!"
The Foreign Tribe was also bewildered by Ye Liuyun, not knowing what to say.
Given Ye Liuyun's realm, it was impossible not to perceive the strong evil aura within the Pill's energy.
"Could it be that he is feigning restraint, deliberately appearing upright, while already prepared mentally?"
He thought to himself.
He also threw the Foreign Tribe's origin pellet to Ye Liuyun, and at the same time remained ready to strike, in case Ye Liuyun destroyed it.
Unexpectedly, after receiving that origin pellet, Ye Liuyun directly began to absorb and cultivate it on the spot!
This left everyone present stunned!
Xie Tianhong simply couldn't figure out what was going on with Ye Liuyun!
He now couldn't say whether he felt disappointed or pleased with Ye Liuyun.
Because Ye Liuyun did not, as he had expected, die gloriously in battle or surrender meekly.
It seemed as if, after venting his inner dissatisfaction, the whole person had become stupid.
The Foreign Tribe also closely monitored Ye Liuyun, seeing that he was indeed absorbing it with no tricks, and they too were utterly puzzled.
But just to be safe, he simply let Ye Liuyun absorb it a bit longer.
Moreover, he was also curious whether Ye Liuyun was playing a trick or truly stupid.
He wanted to see how Ye Liuyun would end things.
The demon cultivators and demon beasts on either side also stared at Ye Liuyun in dumbfounded bewilderment.
Ye Liuyun had actually begun using his Divine Sense to spread the Nine Nether Prelude from the moment he saw those demon cultivators and demon beasts.
Now those demon cultivators and demon beasts had become Ye Liuyun's puppets.
So their bewilderment was genuine.
Even someone used Divine Sense to remind Ye Liuyun.
"Master, that origin pellet contains an evil aura; once absorbed, it will turn one into a Foreign Tribe puppet!"
But Ye Liuyun never responded.
「Could it be that the Demon God Master also wants to ally with the Foreign Tribe? 」
Controlling us, just to raise their status above ours? 」
Some demon cultivators even speculated in this way.
Thus, everyone silently watched Ye Liuyun, with no one disturbing his cultivation.
And Ye Liuyun was indeed taking the opportunity to cultivate.
Resources that come to one's door should not be wasted.
Anyway, the surrounding demon cultivators and demon beasts have all become his puppets, so he doesn't worry about the Foreign Tribe suddenly attacking him.
Moreover, he is truly absorbing the Foreign Tribe's origin pellet, and the Foreign Tribe has no reason to kill him!
「That's about enough, right? 」
After half an hour, the Foreign Tribe finally couldn't hold back and spoke up to stop Ye Liuyun.
At this moment, he also felt much more relieved about Ye Liuyun.
But the Foreign Tribe's origin pellet he had left was originally not much; he couldn't give it all to Ye Liuyun to absorb, and needed to save some for later use!
