Chapter 1407: Rebel Army Storms the City
Ye Liuyun quickly helped him up: "Grand Leader, please don't do this."
I merely stated my opinion.
Let's not stand on ceremony here; let's quickly devise a rescue plan, lest delays give the enemy time to scheme.
"Good! Young Master Ye, tell us how we can cooperate—just say it! As long as we can rescue the Prince, we won't hesitate to sacrifice any number of people!"
Wen Chenggang said excitedly.
"My suggestion is to attack the city and rescue the hostages simultaneously."
Ye Liuyun stated his suggestion: "As soon as the main army attacks the city,
many unrelated martial cultivators will withdraw, reducing the pressure on my rescue."
"Good!"
Wen Chenggang immediately agreed.
"When will we move?"
"Tonight, after midnight.
The longer we delay, the more martial cultivators will rush in from all over! Perhaps even the Empire will send troops when the day comes to deal with the Prince.
The earlier we act, the more advantageous it will be for us."
Ye Liuyun said.
"All right! I'll make the arrangements!"
Wen Chenggang immediately went to prepare.
Ye Liuyun, however, reminded him: "Make sure to mobilize.
This is a rebellion of the entire great army; it's inevitable that some will have second thoughts, so we must not leak the news prematurely!"
"I understand!"
Wen Chenggang nodded, first setting up outer perimeter sentries to prevent anyone from fleeing early and leaking information.
Then he summoned some leaders, passing the message down the ranks.
For those who did not wish to join the mutiny, he did not force them, but required that they not leak information outward and be temporarily placed under house arrest.
After we capture Suppressing Mountain City, we will release them.
Those who resist will be killed outright.
Ye Liuyun then confirmed some details inside the Royal Mansion with Fan Gang, studying how to rescue the person from the dungeon.
Fan Gang also wanted to follow Ye Liuyun to rescue the person, but Ye Liuyun refused.
"I know my strength is lacking, but at least I can block an arrow for you..."
Fan Gang hadn't finished speaking when Ye Liuyun stopped him.
"Your level—blocking an arrow for me would be superfluous!"
Ye Liuyun laughed.
"... Benefactor, saying that hurts my heart deeply!"
Fan Gang said helplessly.
"You have other important things to do! Take some brothers, and when the great army begins its assault on the city, start spreading panic to urge the martial cultivators inside to flee outward!"
Ye Liuyun began to explain it to him.
"Fine, I'll take on this task—I'll make sure it's done well!"
After Fan Gang understood, he immediately went to gather his brothers and went off in disguise.
Before it was even dark, they again entered the city with Ye Liuyun, who wore an Invisibility Cloak, to make their respective preparations.
Ye Liuyun, meanwhile, waited until nearly midnight before sneaking silently into the Royal Mansion and heading straight for the dungeon.
He first used his Golden Pupil and Divine Sense to locate the outer hidden sentries, not acting immediately but waiting for the moment the great army attacks the city.
Inside the Royal Mansion, Xie Tianqi did not come in person; instead, he sent his younger brother Xie Tianming to hold the fort here, bringing over twenty Early Heavenly Venerate martial cultivators.
Moreover, there were seven or eight who were martial cultivators bearing an evil aura.
These experts were quietly cultivating.
Nobody expected that Ye Liuyun would act so quickly.
Inside the dungeon, there were three or four Early Heavenly Venerate martial cultivators on guard.
After midnight, war drums suddenly sounded outside the city.
Ye Liuyun knew that Wen Chenggang was about to launch the assault on the city.
Thus he also immediately acted, launching a Spiritual Soul Attack that eliminated each hidden sentry one by one, then storing them in the Space World.
Thereafter he directly entered the dungeon, using Divine Soul Power to launch an attack, silently and swiftly slaying the guards.
The Early Heavenly Venerate martial cultivators' Divine Soul Power was far inferior to his.
The martial cultivators guarding inside were all silently taken out by him, one by one.
"Young Master Ye?"
Qu Wanying saw Ye Liuyun and her heart was also greatly excited.
"Have you seen my father?"
Qu Wanying, still concerned about her father, asked anxiously.
The female relatives were all held together, so rescuing them was quite easy for Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun drew the Demon Slaying Sword, split the iron prison open, and without pausing to answer his question, rushed to rescue the people.
"Who else needs to be rescued?"
He could not tell which people in the dungeon were genuine prisoners and which were the family of the Prince of Suppressing Mountain.
"That room!"
After Qu Wanying came out, she pointed him to another cell.
Ye Liuyun raised his hand and struck again with Yi Dao, splitting the iron bars; inside were all men.
Afterwards, without another word, he moved everyone into his Space World.
After rescuing Qu Wanying and the others, he felt much more at ease, and returned to outside the dungeon again.
But at this moment, the outside of the dungeon was already filled with Tianzun Realm Martial Cultivators.
The cries of the attacking army and the sounds of battle had already made Xie Tianming inside the Royal Mansion wary.
He sent someone to look, and immediately realized that someone had intruded into the dungeon.
Thus he had all the Tianzun Realm experts surround the dungeon's entrance and exit.
「You are Ye Liuyun! 」
Xie Tianming sized up Ye Liuyun and asked.
As soon as Ye Liuyun emerged, his first act was to have his clone don the Invisibility Cloak and go rescue Zhen Shan Wang.
Meanwhile, he did his best to hold these people back.
「Is it me? 」
「You are Xie Tianhong's second brother, Xie Tianming, right? 」
Ye Liuyun deliberately brought up Xie Tianhong just to pique his curiosity.
「How is my fourth younger brother doing? 」
Xie Tianming naturally cared about Xie Tianhong's life and death.
Although he also guessed that Ye Liuyun was stalling for time, he believed no one could rescue Zhen Shan Wang.
Even if he were rescued, with his family around, he would still return.
Outside Zhen Shan Wang's residence, at this moment there were also four more Tianzun Realm experts lying in ambush.
But the clone needed no appearance; a flash of the Golden Pupil sufficed to move Zhen Shan Wang into his Space World, then return to join Ye Liuyun.
Nearby, a Martial Cultivator saw Zhen Shan Wang suddenly vanish and couldn't help but stare in shock.
At the same time, Ye Liuyun instantly felt the clone's information, knowing that Zhen Shan Wang had also been rescued, and he completely set his mind at ease.
「Second Young Master, it's terrible—Qujing has disappeared! 」
At that moment, a Tianzun Realm Martial Cultivator came rushing over, staggering, to report to Xie Tianming.
Xie Tianming looked at Ye Liuyun and said: «You are quite capable. »
«But how do you plan to escape? »
Ye Liuyun gave a faint smile, recalling his clone into the Space World.
Zhen Shan Wang also met with Qu Wanying and the others.
「Why should I flee? 」
«Perhaps it's you who are fleeing. »
After Ye Liuyun finished speaking, he suddenly released all the ferocious beasts captured from Beast Mountain.
At that moment, battle cries from three sides of Zhen Shan City rose to the heavens; the defending soldiers could not withstand the impact of the 200,000-strong army, offered only a slight resistance before immediately abandoning the city and fleeing toward the side that had not been attacked.
Inside the city, Martial Cultivators also shouted in confusion, claiming that the 200,000-strong army had rebelled, killing anyone they saw, urging everyone to flee quickly.
