Chapter 1578

After everything was arranged, Yan Tu and Yi Dao pretended to panic and ran toward the direction the Nether Ghost Ship was coming from.

Ye Liuyun then took out the Black Tower, preparing to return inside the Formation Flag.

He prepared to rely on the Formation to hold the position and resist the Underworld God's attack.

Even if the Formation Flag couldn't hold, he could still use the Black Tower to transmit to several other coordinates inside the Fog Sea.

As for how well the Formation could defend against the Underworld God, and when to release the Yin Souls to besiege it, everything would depend on the situation at the time.

He now also dared not set a concrete plan.

The Underworld God's realm is too strong, with too many variables.

He could only wait and see the situation before making a decision.

Ye Liuyun estimated the time, and as soon as Yan Tu and Yi Dao were supposed to meet the Underworld God, he immediately used the Black Tower to transmit back inside the Formation Flag.

To be safe, he also placed that Side Courtyard treasure in the periphery covered by the Formation Flag.

He himself then hid his figure using the Formation Flag.

He also stationed more than ten Yin Soul guards at the entrance of that Side Courtyard to lure the Underworld God inside.

Because the distance is close, if the Underworld God mistakenly thinks Ye Liuyun is inside and enters that Side Courtyard, he could possibly be trapped.

He also wasn't sure whether this thing could trap the Underworld God, but delaying for a while would still allow him to fully cast his spell.

Meanwhile, the Underworld God, accompanied by three Nether Ghost Ships, rushed toward Ye Liuyun's position and happened to encounter Yan Tu and Yi Dao on the way.

These two pretended to have seen the Nether Ghost Ship and originally intended to rush up and plunder a Warship.

But when they saw the Underworld God also present, they immediately turned and fled, only to be caught up and intercepted by him.

"I thought you two were dead, but I didn't expect you're still alive!"

The Underworld God was also curious how they had erased the Divine Soul Contract, so he didn't kill them right away.

Seeing he couldn't escape, Yan Tu immediately told the Underworld God about their ordeal.

Of course, they were speaking exactly as Ye Liuyun had prepared for them beforehand.

The Underworld God was half-believing, half-doubting, and asked: "Why did Ye Liuyun tell you he wants to return to the Formation?"

"Did you personally see Asura and its Yin Soul army?"

"Ye Liuyun wanted to persuade us to surrender, and told us that himself!"

Yan Tu explained: "He said he has the strength to fight you one-on-one!"

Yi Dao also immediately added: "Not bad, Asura is also something we personally witnessed.

Their strength is far greater than what you previously estimated!"

"You two wouldn't also have surrendered to Ye Liuyun, would you?"

The Underworld God asked with a cold smile.

Although he had never used the Hundred-Refined Soul Banner before, the idea that a single suction from it would erase the Divine Soul Contract was something he had never heard of.

"Hmph, our strength is not something Asura can compare to!"

Yi Dao gave a cold snort, speaking disdainfully.

The Underworld God also thought that the two of them together would likely not be captured by Ye Liuyun.

But the two of them now have many suspicions.

But after thinking, if Asura really had turned traitor and brought many Yin Souls, then it would be perfect to use those two to eliminate Asura and her subordinates.

As for whether those two have become traitors, that will naturally be known in time.

As long as he is a bit careful about their actions, those two aren't something he worries much about.

Capturing those two and sending them to Purgatory would be troublesome; killing them outright would be much simpler for the Underworld God.

So he said to the two of them: "To make me believe you, it's actually not hard.

"Just sign another Divine Soul Contract with me, and that'll do!"

"Don't even think about it!"

Yi Dao immediately refused outright, even putting on a posture ready to fight.

"Underworld God, we're not just afraid of you! Even if we join forces, you might not be able to keep us.

Do you want to deal with Ye Liuyun first, or fight us first?"

Yan Tu also changed color upon hearing it, warily stepping back two steps.

Ye Liuyun's guess was correct; seeing this, the Underworld God instead felt that this matched the two's personalities, making it more believable.

One must say, these two's acting is spot on.

"Haha! If you don't sign, you don't sign—why are you so nervous? But after all, we had an agreement before; I let you out, and you didn't help me, so you might as well lend me a hand against Asura—consider it not wasting my release of you."

"We're not not helping you; it's just that this kid's treasure is too strong.

We also did our best."

Yan Tu also added a sentence.

The Underworld God had long seen the wounds on their bodies.

Yet this did not affect his suspicion.

At this moment, Yan Tu also pretended to consider it a bit, seeming accepting, then he looked toward Yi Dao to see his opinion.

Yi Dao calmly asked the Underworld God: "If we don't agree, will you then attack us?"

The Underworld God sighed and said faintly: "That wouldn't necessarily be the case.

However, I have set up a heavenly net and earthly trap here, already covering the entire Fog Sea, and I won't withdraw the net just for you two.

Anyway, you can't get out, so you might as well do me a small favor!"

He was also trying to intimidate them.

If those two insist on leaving, the Underworld God now wouldn't attack them either.

Ghost Hand Yi Dao, however, coldly smiled and retorted: "You've already set up the Heavenly Net and Earthly Trap; how could we not agree?"

Yan Tu also eased the atmosphere, saying: "Let's cooperate first! We'll help you out; after you finish your business, you let us leave, no one hindering anyone, how about that?"

Good!

The Underworld God also agreed.

As long as he can obtain the Mourning Bell and the Hundred-Refined Soul Banner, those two will eventually be killed by him; he's not in a hurry about this moment.

Seeing the Underworld God agree, the two of them said no more and immediately followed him back to the Nether Ghost Ship.

At this moment, the Underworld God also sensed that Ye Liuyun's position had changed.

He immediately had the Nether Ghost Ship adjust its course.

"You say that Asura is leading an army of Yin Souls at the Earth Sovereign realm?"

After returning to the Nether Ghost Ship, the Underworld God began inquiring again about Ye Liuyun's strength over there.

"Not bad! He also has some Tianzun realm feral beasts! In my view, he likely still has Yin Souls of the Tianzun realm in his hands!"

Yan Tu helped analyze.

Ghost Hand Yi Dao, as before, remained mostly silent, only occasionally adding a sentence.

Since the two of them had seen the Yin Souls that Ye Liuyun released, their description was very detailed.

They merely lowered the realm to Earth Sovereign.

Thus, their behavior was quite normal; although the Underworld God was on guard against them, he had no particular suspicion in this regard.

He also, based on Yan Tu and Ghost Hand Yi Dao's descriptions, arranged how the Yin Souls under his command would cooperate in the attack when the time came.

Thus, Yan Tu and Ghost Hand Yi Dao, as two Yin Souls, misled the Underworld God's judgment, luring him into Ye Liuyun's trap.
