Chapter 1604: Snaring a Nest

The man wailed miserably for a while, then turned into a puddle of rotting flesh, which the toxins ate away piece by piece.

Even his Yin Soul, Ye Liuyun, was not spared; a burst of Nether Ghost Fire was released, scattering his spirit.

This torment made everyone shiver with dread.

Ye Liuyun did it so that Fan Lie and another person could watch, causing the defenses in their hearts to collapse.

At this moment he seized another subordinate of Fan Lie and said, "Your turn. Think carefully before you give your answer! The consequences of a wrong reply are severe!"

The man trembled; under Ye Liuyun's oppressive pressure he was already under great strain, and now his mind was completely shattered.

"I speak, I speak!"

So he revealed all the details of how Fan Lie and the others betrayed the Iron Eagle Sect.

Ye Liuyun did not kill him; he tossed him to an Elder, and then seized Fan Lie again.

Fan Lie's face turned pale, blood seeped from his mouth corner, and even breathing was now very labored.

Ye Liuyun eased his oppressive pressure slightly, allowing him to speak.

"Do you want to tell me directly, or do you want me to torture you for a while before you speak?" Ye Liuyun demanded.

"I confess! What my subordinate just said was already very detailed. Give me a quick end!" Fan Lie also knew his death was inevitable.

Ye Liuyun laughed, "No, no, no. You still have information he doesn't know. Speak up! If you don't reveal it, you won't even be able to die!"

While speaking, Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil swept over his arm, and Golden Crow Holy Fire ignited. He controlled the flame, trying to burn it slowly.

Then he ripped his Soul out and struck it with Lightning Strike.

Now dealing with him, Ye Liuyun must be extremely careful, lest excessive force kill him outright.

Fan Lie endured the dual torment of body and Soul. Especially within the Soul world, his Soul was electrocuted for nearly an hour and could no longer bear it!

Meanwhile, in the real world, his arm had just been brutally burned away.

The charred smell of roasted meat had long since dissipated.

"I speak, I speak! The Qingshi Elder at headquarters is a member of the Dark Night Demon Hall. He led me into the Dark Night Demon Hall," Fan Lie confessed with a gut‑wrenching scream.

"Continue, tell me everything you know!" Ye Liuyun said calmly.

Fan Lie also named several Hall Masters and deputy hall masters, who had secretly pledged allegiance to the Dark Night Demon Hall.

Ye Liuyun nodded in satisfaction, then tossed Fan Lie to an Elder, and asked Piao Yun, "Have you memorized all these people?"

"Yes, Master!" Piao Yun replied immediately.

She truly admired Ye Liuyun. Having just returned a short while ago, she couldn't help but feel she had turned the losing situation around and uncovered a nest of traitors.

She had previously been too shy to call him Master, fearing Ye Liuyun would look down on her. But now she was determined to follow Ye Liuyun.

The Iron Eagle Sect and the Dark Night Demon Hall have been at war for years, sending agents to each other, which is normal. Yet for officials of such high rank, this was the first discovery.

Ye Liuyun uncovered it in an instant, demonstrating that his insight and ability are extraordinary.

The many members of the Iron Eagle Sect were all extremely shocked, realizing this was a major event.

The Elder in charge of overseeing Fan Lie and his subordinates carefully destroyed their yuan dan, then sealed their entire bodies with True Essence to prevent them from committing suicide.

At this time, the outer battle proceeded smoothly. The Dark Night Demon Hall's forces were flanked by Demon Beasts on both sides, destined to become food.

Ye Tiandao had long ago eliminated the Dark Night Demon Hall's strongmen and was merely watching the spectacle.

Ye Liuyun no longer dealt with Iron Eagle Sect matters, leaving the rest for Piao Yun and the others to handle themselves.

He only led the ferocious beasts to clean the battlefield, then recalled them all back to the Space World.

After Piao Yun had arranged everything, she gave a brief report to Jing Wudi. Jing Wudi also instructed Piao Yun to return to the Iron Eagle Sect Headquarters together with Ye Liuyun.

"Can we leave now?" Ye Liuyun asked when he saw she had finished.

"Can we also bring these two traitors back to the Headquarters?" Piao Yun asked Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun directly gave Piao Yun a Storage Ring capable of holding living beings, and told her to place the two of them inside.

His Space World would not let such traitors enter to enjoy it.

Then he launched a Flying Shuttle, carving a beam of light across the sky with Piao Yun, returning to the Iron Eagle Sect Headquarters.

The remaining members of the Iron Eagle Sect, watching the light fade from the sky, sighed in admiration.

"I've long heard of Ye Liuyun, and seeing him today truly lives up to his reputation!"

"Indeed, I wonder what realm he's in now! One person can subdue two thousand!"

"His greatness isn't just in his realm! His abilities and methods are also extraordinary…"

After a brief discussion, they led their troops back to their respective garrisons.

After this battle, they had fully secured the area. The remaining task was to gradually eradicate the lingering remnants of the Dark Night Demon Hall here.

Jing Wudi didn't wait for Ye Liuyun and the others to return to the Iron Eagle Sect before beginning to seize those agents one by one.

When Ye Liuyun returned, he immediately interrogated them and began the cleanup.

Ye Liuyun first took Jin Yuanhui and Piao Yun, recounting his experiences over the years and the wonders of the outside world.

"Master, as you depart this time, take me with you! I wish to follow you and serve by your side forever!" Piao Yun pleaded.

"Fine! Staying here does slow your cultivation progress; coming with me to see the world will broaden your insight and accelerate your advancement!" Ye Liuyun readily agreed.

After finishing his tasks, Jing Wudi also went to find Ye Liuyun, continuing their welcome banquet.

This time, everyone listened as Ye Liuyun described the outside world.

The crowd greatly admired Ye Liuyun's accounts. Especially the new generation of young Iron Eagle Sect members, who secretly resolved to train hard, hoping one day to venture out like Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun also told Jing Wudi about Lin Feier and Mo Ya. With the Dark Night Demon Hall now leaderless, the Iron Eagle Sect can seize the opportunity to expand its gains.

Jing Wudi, the proudest of all, said, "When I first saw you, I knew you were different. You haven't disappointed me! You constantly bring honor to our Iron Eagle Sect."

Afterwards, he arranged troops to attack the various branches of the Dark Night Demon Hall, taking the chance to enlarge the victory.

Ye Liuyun took Jin Yuanhui and Piao Yun into his Space World to cultivate, occasionally emerging to drink and reminisce with Jing Wudi.

A few days later, Ye Liuyun had had enough; having said all he needed, he bid farewell to Jing Wudi and the others.
