Chapter 1675
The martial cultivators of the City Lord's mansion stood dumbfounded on the spot, unable to recover for a long time.
"What the hell is this?! Just let it go like that? What about our dead comrades? Did they die for nothing?"
One martial cultivator, being straightforward, asked the people nearby in confusion.
"Sigh! Let's go!"
A strong expert of the ninth level of Heavenly Venerable spoke embarrassingly and took the lead in leaving.
The remaining people could only follow back.
Huowu watched them walk away with a smile, then exclaimed, "The master is still amazing!"
Ye Liuyun also sent a voice transmission to everyone and the monster beasts: "What do you mean I'm amazing? It's because I didn't arrange things well. If I had arranged it properly, this problem wouldn't have arisen. From now on, this team will be led by Lin Feier, and everyone and the monster beasts must obey her commands!"
He directly changed the team leader to Lin Feier.
Although Huowu's scheming and strength are not lacking, she cannot command all the monster beasts.
Jin Yuanhui's temperament is similar to Lei Ming's, somewhat playful; Piao Yun, on the other hand, lacks a firm character and is somewhat weak.
Lin Feier has commanded the Dark Night Demon Hall before, so she certainly has the ability to lead these people and monster beasts.
The monster beasts will also obey her commands because she is Ye Liuyun's woman.
Ye Liuyun also explained this to Huowu, fearing she might misunderstand.
Huowu also replied, "Thank you, master, for understanding!"
She actually also had a headache dealing with high-level monster beasts like the Black Panther and Little Blue Ice. Since beastkind respect strength, their high level naturally means they won't obey her commands.
Afterward, Ye Liuyun also communicated with the Black Panther and Little Blue Ice, making them obey Lin Feier's commands.
Lin Feier did not refuse to lead the team. She also realized that these monster beasts lacked unity, and having her manage them would actually be simpler.
This team of theirs is actually strong enough; they just haven't brought out their strength.
Ye Liuyun also didn't take extra care of them; he only instructed Lin Feier: "Don't have any reservations, act boldly, and lead everyone to acquire more resources."
Lin Feier also replied with a smile: "With you backing us, what is there to fear?"
Afterward, Ye Liuyun no longer cared where they went or how they left; he simply returned to Yi Cheng to cultivate. The rest was up to them.
Lin Feier had no trouble adapting; martial cultivators everywhere are the same—survival of the fittest.
With Ye Liuyun backing them, if they still dared not act, that would only show their own inadequacy.
Thus they frequently took action afterward; under Lin Feier's leadership, this team not only gained more combat opportunities but also acquired more resources.
Moreover, this team actually acted more ruthlessly than the team led by Man Shu.
Lin Feier, coming from a demon cultivator background, fundamentally disregards any rules and shows no mercy to opponents.
Furthermore, these monster beasts are each ferocious and bloodthirsty, which also suits Lin Feier's approach.
Only A Xing and Jin Yuanhui are the least inclined to kill among them. Piao Yun, on the other hand, can fully carry out orders, doing exactly what is told.
Among Man Shu's team, only Feng Wanru is capable of exterminating the root.
However, Lin Feier acts very covertly and often leaves no survivors, so after a long time, Zhongyang Dalu received another report: a few women leading monster beasts were acting even more ruthlessly than Lei Ming's group.
After returning to Moyu Yi Cheng, Ye Liuyun had just advanced to the mid-stage of the eighth level of Heavenly Venerable when he received a distress message from Lei Ming and Long Nv.
The voice transmission only said they were trapped in a secret realm, with Man Shu seriously injured, and then only the location information remained.
Moreover, the transmission carried the rumbling of True Essence, as if they were in battle. She also heard Wu Qingcheng shouting for Lei Ming to withdraw.
Ye Liuyun immediately realized the situation was serious. But when he tried to contact them for details, neither the Divine Soul Contract nor the Transmission Talisman could reach them anymore.
He guessed these women had already entered some secret realm, so he immediately rushed to Xinghe City according to the location Lei Ming had left for him.
However, when he arrived at the teleportation array, the guards there told Ye Liuyun that the guards of Xinghe City's teleportation array had not responded, and the array there had been shut down.
"When can we get in touch?" Ye Liuyun asked immediately.
"I will immediately dispatch the guard team nearest to Xinghe City to check the situation; the earliest it will take is two days!" the captain of Yi Cheng's guard team replied.
"Send me to the teleportation array nearest to Xinghe City! Then, through Lan Ruobing, bring more people over for reinforcements." Ye Liuyun directly commanded.
Ye Liuyun could not wait two days.
The information in the Transmission Talisman already showed that Lei Ming and the others were in great danger.
Rather than waiting for the array guards to go to Xinghe City, it would be faster for him to teleport himself there and then rush to Xinghe City on a Flying Shuttle.
"Yes!" The guard captain did not dare delay, immediately teleporting Ye Liuyun away and then notifying Lan Ruobing to bring people for reinforcements.
After Ye Liuyun teleported, he immediately took out his Flying Shuttle and rushed to Xinghe City at full speed.
Lei Ming's side of the encounter must start from when they crippled a man named Li Xiaoyu.
The Li family is an emerging clan in the southern region of Zhongyang Dalu.
After the foreign tribes were driven out, southern migrants returned in large numbers, and some clans seized the opportunity of rebuilding the south, rapidly rising. The Li family is one of them.
Because the Li family returned to southern Xinghe City a step earlier, and acted decisively and ruthlessly, they quickly took control of the later migrants and their forces.
Li Xiaoyu, as the sole heir of the Li family, was spoiled rotten by the family and ran amok in Xinghe City.
When Man Shu's group passed through Xinghe City, Li Xiaoyu took a liking to them, actually wanting to possess these women for himself, brazenly harassing them, which naturally led to no good outcome.
Since his cultivation was not high, it was Xia Lingshuang who made the move. Her strike wasn't decisive enough; she merely abolished his elixir field as punishment.
It is obvious that this spoiled rich scion lacks such awareness.
After Li Xiaoyu was carried back home, he clamored for the family to take revenge. Meanwhile, the Li clan chief, Li Haoran, having only this son who was now crippled, naturally refused to let it rest.
Thus he took out a secret realm the Li family had just obtained, spread the news, and lured Man Shu and the others to come explore it.
This secret realm was also inadvertently obtained during their return migration to the south. Since he already controlled its primordial power, he could freely take it in or out.
He originally intended to lure Man Shu and the others in, then seal or destroy the secret realm, killing them all inside.
But what he didn't expect was that Man Shu is a Divine Realm powerhouse. With a Divine Realm expert present, this secret realm actually cannot be taken back by him.
