Chapter 1690: Strange Formation

Qiong Qi can't stand the habit, and immediately snapped back: "Are we giving you any face?"

Do you think I have a temper as good as his?

Even if all the humans here were wiped out, it wouldn't concern me! I don't have that kind heart that wants to rescue everyone at a glance.

If you don't trust us, you can go your own way! No need to follow us!

They were scolded back by Qiong Qi, but they didn't notice the words "the humans here" he said.

Ye Liuyun heard this and was somewhat displeased; he recalled his clone directly into the Space World and said to them, "Since that's the case, let's each go our own way."

Ye Liuyun's clone, clad in armor that concealed its face, was indistinguishable to them.

He didn't want to expose the secret of having a clone to some irrelevant people.

He also wasn't compelled to take these people along.

Since others don't believe him, he sees no need to cause himself trouble.

Mu Yuqing immediately tugged at Feng Biao's sleeve, signaling him to keep quiet.

Then she explained to Ye Liuyun, "Young Master Ye, don't mind my senior brother; his brain sometimes doesn't work well.

Since you just now allowed me to verify, that already shows you're trustworthy.

How could we still distrust you!"

Ye Liuyun heard this and had to pause: "Since that's so, let's leave immediately; you relax, I will pull you into the Space World!"

Ye Liuyun also didn't want to waste more words with them.

If they continue to resist or doubt, Ye Liuyun can only abandon them.

However, Mu Yuqing and the others cooperated this time, and were directly pulled back into the Space World by Ye Liuyun.

Within the Space World, Ye Liuyun also isolated a separate space, preventing them from seeing the overall situation of the Space World.

"You saw it, right?

This person is low, just begs to be scolded! I think you should show less kindness in the future, don't bring trouble onto yourself!"

Qiong Qi complained to Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun smiled helplessly, "Alright, I'll meddle less in the future!"

Qiong Qi, however, didn't care what he said: "You still can't change!"

The two kept talking while rushing back toward the Corpse Demon encirclement.

Their Divine Sense was strong; they could still transform before encountering the Corpse Demon.

These Corpse Demons are foolish; even if they spot them from afar, once they get close and assume the appearance of a Foreign Tribe, the Corpse Demons obey their commands.

Mu Yuqing and the others also realized that Feng Biao's remark had provoked Ye Liuyun's displeasure.

"You, your words really lack a sense of weight! You yourself said he let me examine the secret technique and the Soul; if that's still not trustworthy, how could anyone be trusted?"

Mu Yuqing complained about Feng Biao.

"We could have become close friends, but your single remark offended them!"

Mu Yuqing was also at a loss for words,

She thought that those who could still rush here to confront the Foreign Tribe at this moment were people with great righteousness and a sense of responsibility.

Such people are definitely worth befriending.

Feng Biao, repeatedly apologizing after being scolded, said, "Junior sister, you know my brain doesn't work well.

I suppose once Young Master Ye spends more time with us, he'll understand this flaw of mine.

By then, he naturally won't mind."

"Hope there's still a chance to make amends later!"

Mu Yuqing gave him a white-eyed look; now she was also helpless.

She now only hopes Ye Liuyun can smoothly pass through the Corpse Demon encirclement and locate the resisting human forces.

Although they didn't know whether they could ultimately defeat the Foreign Tribe, it was still better than merely surviving by scraping by.

In the past year and a bit, they had also encountered some selfish Martial Cultivators; no matter how they were persuaded, they refused to join the battle, and eventually were all wiped out by the Corpse Demons, none escaping.

The saying "no uncracked egg under a broken nest"—these people never grasped that truth even unto death.

After Ye Liuyun and Qiong Qi approached the Corpse Demon encirclement, they dared not impersonate the Foreign Tribe for fear of being discovered, so they simply transformed into Corpse Demon forms and blended into the Corpse Demon Army.

Then, relying on their strong Divine Sense, they tried to avoid those Foreign Tribe members as much as possible.

The further forward they went, the stronger the Corpse Demons' realms became.

To blend in more closely, they displayed their realm as Heavenly Sovereign Eightfold.

Soon, the two of them had mixed into the front line.

At that moment they also saw that the place where the Human Martial Cultivator garrisoned was a pocket‑shaped valley, protected by a powerful Light Curtain Formation that repelled the Corpse Demon assault.

Coincidentally, the Foreign Tribe sent a squad of Corpse Demons over; Ye Liuyun and Qiong Qi didn't know their purpose, but seeing them head toward that Formation, they immediately ran after them.

When this squad of Corpse Demons reached the Formation, they began bombarding.

After a while of fighting, they withdrew.

Soon after, another squad of Corpse Demons arrived, continuing the bombardment of the Formation.

During this interval, after the main Corpse Demon force withdrew, only Ye Liuyun and Qiong Qi remained, and both sides found the two of them odd.

The Foreign Tribe members wondered whether these two Corpse Demons were being controlled by some method of the Human Martial Cultivator.

Being controlled with Divine Sense, they surprisingly showed no reaction.

The Human Martial Cultivator also wondered what scheme the Foreign Tribe had this time.

Thus, what was originally a routine Corpse Demon attack on the Formation drew attention from both sides.

After studying the Formation, Qiong Qi, via Transmission Voice to Ye Liuyun, confirmed, "This Formation is ineffective against us; we can just walk straight in."

"Hmm?"

Ye Liuyun didn't understand what this meant.

Qiong Qi continued to transmit voice to him, explaining: "This formation is not completely useless; it has a certain discriminatory ability, able to automatically identify Corpse Demons and Foreign Tribes, yet it will not attack humans and fierce beasts!"

"'Then, in our current appearance, can we enter?'"

Ye Liuyun meant that they currently appear as Corpse Demons.

"'The formation doesn't care about appearance; it only looks at essence!'"

Qiong Qi said, stepping directly in, disappearing into the light curtain.

Ye Liuyun saw this, immediately followed, also entering the formation.

The Foreign Tribes outside were shocked.

"'Could it be that the formation has failed?'"

They immediately sent out Corpse Demons to try; the result was that those Corpse Demons daring to rush straight through were directly annihilated by that light curtain.

The humans inside the formation, seeing two Corpse Demons actually enter, immediately became tense, all rushing forward to block them.

And after Ye Liuyun and Qiong Qi entered, they immediately restored their original appearances, shocking those martial cultivators into standing frozen on the spot.

At this time, Ye Liuyun also released Mu Yuqing and the others.

Mu Yuqing, seeing several dozen human martial cultivators before her, was also extremely excited, never having felt that seeing human martial cultivators could be so intimate.

Ye Liuyun and Qiong Qi both noticed that the martial cultivators here were mostly of the Tianzun Realm, with very few of the Earth Sovereign Realm.

Within the space enclosed by this formation, there are not many martial cultivators; altogether only about five or six hundred.

The two of them released their Divine Sense, also discovering the strangeness here.

Many elderly martial cultivators were scattered, sitting cross-legged in various places, already in a near-death state.

On one hand they were absorbing the spiritual energy here; on the other hand they were outputting True Essence to the formation.
