Chapter 1412: Demon's Name
"Prince Consort, retreat quickly, or if you don't go now, once the great army disperses, you won't be able to leave even if you want to!" The Great Leader beside Xie Tianqi also knew they were surely defeated, only wanting to hastily lead the troops in retreat, so perhaps they could still retain a few soldiers.
Xie Tianqi was also frightened out of his wits, immediately boarding a flying boat, under the cover of the central army, breaking out outward.
Charge!
Qujing and Wen Chenggang also came to their senses at this time. They led troops to launch a frontal assault on the Empire's great army.
The Empire's soldiers already had thoughts of fleeing, and they all looked backward to see how the battle was progressing.
This time, upon receiving another frontal impact, they had no ability to resist at all, directly dropping their weapons and scattering to flee.
What's worse, some didn't even flee but directly surrendered!
Seeing this, Qujing also did not let the great army advance deeper. He was worried that the monsters released by Ye Liuyun could not distinguish friend from foe.
He merely had the troops form a semicircle, encircling the Empire's great army.
The two wings were driven by packs of fire wolves, herding the fleeing soldiers back.
However, Xie Tianqi's opponent was none other than the battle-hardened Asura.
As soon as they moved, the Asura knew they intended to break out! It immediately adjusted a large amount of forces to intercept them head-on.
Even the flying boat that Xie Tianqi was riding in was destroyed.
Fortunately, Xie Tianqi and that Leader both carried treasures defending against Spiritual Soul Attack, escaping the Yin Soul's attack. Moreover, Xie Tianqi also changed into ordinary soldier's clothing, concealed his realm, and mingled among the soldiers operating the flying boat, narrowly escaping disaster.
But next, the fire wolves blocked the way ahead.
Xie Tianqi also released all the ferocious beasts from his storage space to block the fire wolves for a moment, while he himself sneaked away.
He no longer had time to worry about that Leader; he would first save his own life.
The entire battlefield was in utter chaos. The fire wolves also thought he was just an ordinary foot soldier, not paying much attention.
That Leader, because he hadn't changed clothes, was singled out by the fire wolves and bitten in half.
Seeing the Leader flee and be killed, the Empire's soldiers lost all will to resist and began to surrender en masse.
Seeing this, Qujing immediately withdrew his troops, handing them over to the Yin Souls to take over, fearing they might be mistakenly killed by them.
The Asura, leading the Yin Soul army, encircled the remaining over 200,000 Empire soldiers.
On the battlefield, the ferocious beasts had already begun to fight over the corpses on the ground.
After Ye Liuyun and his clone eliminated the few Martial Cultivators bearing the Foreign Tribe's aura, he then retrieved Liang Xue and the others back into the Space World.
He also didn't bother with the ferocious beasts, just letting them store food.
"There are still over 200,000 alive!" the Asura reported to Ye Liuyun.
"That many?" Ye Liuyun also worried. If he released them, they would still be his enemies in the future; if he didn't, he couldn't afford to support so many people.
He glanced at the ferocious beasts fighting over the corpses. After thinking, he issued an order to the Asura.
"Kill!"
Even someone as ruthless as the Asura was stunned for a moment upon hearing that.
"How ruthless!" she thought to herself, immediately going to issue the order.
Ghostly wails and wolf howls quickly rang out again. Only this time, they were not emitted by the Yin Souls, but by those soldiers.
They now didn't even have weapons in their hands.
However, even if they had weapons, it would make no difference to those Yin Souls.
Qujing and Wen Chenggang, seeing this from afar, were also shocked speechless.
"Over 200,000 people, you just killed them all like that? That's too ruthless, right?" Wen Chenggang sent a voice transmission to Qujing.
If it were him making the decision, he might ultimately release all these captives.
Qujing then said tremblingly: "I told you before, he is more terrifying than the Xie Family. Do you believe it now? You should be glad he is not our enemy!"
Upon hearing that, Wen Chenggang immediately decided in his heart that he absolutely could not doubt Ye Liuyun again, and must absolutely avoid provoking him.
Just killing those over 200,000 soldiers took the Yin Souls more than half an hour.
Afterward, Ye Liuyun recalled the Yin Souls into the Soul Banner, leaving the corpses to be fought over by the ferocious beasts.
Qujing then ordered the troops to withdraw and return to the warship to await Ye Liuyun.
One day later, the battlefield was completely cleared by Ye Liuyun's ferocious beasts. The ground was littered with armor and weapons, yet not a single corpse remained.
"A 400,000-strong great army, and not a single corpse left!" Wen Chenggang, seeing the scene before him, also couldn't help but sigh.
After Ye Liuyun gathered up the ferocious beasts and the puppets, he then handed over the battlefield to Qujing.
Those weapons and armor were exactly the resources Qujing and his group needed.
Thus, Qujing again dispatched troops to clean up the battlefield once more.
Ye Liuyun returned to the warship to rest. But he discovered that all the valuable soldiers he knew had completely changed their attitudes toward him.
Each one became extremely cautious, as if he were terribly frightening.
Only Qu Wanying and Fan Gang remained as they were before, still as carefree as ever.
"Your demonic name is truly not empty! So many people, and you dare to kill them?" Upon seeing him, Qu Wanying began to scold Ye Liuyun.
"Not kill them and leave them for you to raise?" Ye Liuyun asked with a laugh.
"Then wouldn't releasing them be enough?" Qu Wanying argued with him.
"Don't forget, you are now rebels. Those soldiers are your enemies. If you let them go this time, perhaps next time they will become the main force attacking you!" Ye Liuyun reminded her.
"But killing so many people, aren't you afraid of having nightmares?" Qu Wanying sneered.
"War is just this cruel! If it weren't for me today, those 200,000 of you would be the ones dead!" Ye Liuyun said leisurely.
On this point, Qu Wanying was also unable to refute.
"Hmph! Then do you still have any justification?" She asked indignantly.
"On the battlefield, there's no room for reason; only strength speaks!" Ye Liuyun replied with a sentence, leaving Qu Wanying finally with nothing to say.
After a while, Qu Wanying again asked about the evil dragon, yin souls, demon beasts, and puppets, being curious about everything, she surrounded Ye Liuyun and kept questioning him.
Ye Liuyun, however, no matter how she asked, simply refused to tell her, making her so angry she stomped her feet, yet she could do nothing to him.
Not long after, Qujing cleared the battlefield and wanted to give half the supplies to Ye Liuyun. In this battle, they basically contributed nothing.
Even if they did nothing, Ye Liuyun would still win just as easily. Those yin soul armies were simply too strong.
"You keep it; those things are useless even if I wanted them! Just feed those corpses to the ferocious beasts!"
Ye Liuyun, however, didn't want any of it at all. He basically looked down on those supplies.
Afterwards, the warship set sail, continuing to rush toward Luanfeng He.
At this moment, the flying boat that had gone to seek help returned at top speed.
"Reporting to the Prince, the West Phoenix King refuses to send troops!" a minor leader who had gone to seek help reported to Qujing.
