Chapter 1723: Being Robbed

Ye Liuyun showed this trick; although he himself thought it was nothing, it was enough to show that his understanding of the Dao of Alchemy was very deep.

Liu Dan Shi wanted to stand up immediately and go out to chase Ye Liuyun to have a good talk with him.

So he wanted to explain a sentence to the old man opposite.

But when he raised his head, he found that the old man opposite had disappeared.

He had been too shocked just now, and actually didn't notice when that old man left.

"Huh, how did he leave?"

He still felt a bit strange.

But he didn't have time to worry about that now, and directly headed toward the City Lord's Manor.

After Ye Liuyun and Li YuanYang came out of Mysterious Origin Pavilion, they walked and talked, not in a hurry to go back.

Li YuanYang was still introducing Ye Liuyun to the other major powers in the city.

But they hadn't gone far when a piercing cold wind swept over them from behind.

Li YuanYang and Ye Liuyun both turned warily, and discovered that it was actually the old man who had been beside Liu Dan Shi just now, expressionlessly approaching them.

"Senior, may I ask for your guidance?"

"I am Li YuanYang, the City Lord of Ice Spring City!"

Li YuanYang still thought this person had been summoned by Liu Dan Shi to educate Ye Liuyun.

He had just spent a lot of money on Ye Liuyun, so of course he wanted to protect him.

But the opponent's strength was obviously much greater than his, and he couldn't beat him, so he could only use his identity as City Lord to intimidate.

That old man expressionlessly looked at Ye Liuyun, paying no attention to Li YuanYang.

He just coldly said: "This kid, we, the Profound Ice Palace, are taking him! I am the Grand Steward of the Profound Ice Palace, Xiao Bingxin!"

Saying that, he flashed and appeared beside Ye Liuyun, grabbed his neck with one hand, and walked off carrying him.

"Eh?"

"Eh? You Profound Ice Palace don't go too far..." Li YuanYang wanted to step in to save Ye Liuyun, but before he could finish speaking, he was frozen in place by a palm strike from Xiao Bingxin.

Although they were both at the Second Realm of the Divine Realm, one was early stage and the other late stage, their strength differed vastly.

If it weren't for his hesitation because Li YuanYang is the City Lord, Xiao Bingxin's palm could have directly turned Li YuanYang into an ice sculpture.

"Don't worry, I'm just letting you go to the Profound Ice Palace to refine pills; I won't mistreat you!"

Xiao Bingxin also sent a mental transmission to Ye Liuyun, comforting him with a sentence.

Ye Liuyun originally wanted to release the Magic Vine or use poison to kill Xiao Bingxin, but upon hearing "Profound Ice Palace," he didn't rush to act.

Anyway, he had memorized the prescription, the herbs were on him, and refining pills anywhere would be the same.

However, he is currently being held hostage, so he surely feels unhappy.

"The experience of going to the Divine Realm is really different."

"I actually got robbed!"

Ye Liuyun also felt utterly helpless in his heart.

If he were to clash head-on with Xiao Bingxin, he would definitely not be a match.

"Is this how the Profound Ice Palace invites people to refine pills?"

Ye Liuyun asked aloud.

He wanted Xiao Bingxin to put him down.

If Xiao Bingxin's reasons were sufficient, he would actually follow along.

After all, the Profound Ice Palace has resources like Ice Spring, and he really wanted to see if there was a chance to cultivate there.

"Hmph! I could just kill you outright!"

Xiao Bingxin thought Ye Liuyun was mocking him, and replied coldly.

Seeing him threaten himself, Ye Liuyun also felt dissatisfied.

But he still patiently said: "Just let me go, and I'll follow you!"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Bingxin completely ignored his words and directly used Ice Power to freeze Ye Liuyun.

He was afraid that freezing Ye Liuyun would kill him instantly, so he didn't use too much Ice Power.

But he didn't know that Ye Liuyun also possessed Ice Power.

So those Ice Powers were quickly absorbed by Ye Liuyun as energy.

"Huh?"

"You can absorb Ice Power?"

Xiao Bingxin found it strange and conducted another test.

Immediately he strengthened the Ice Power a bit more, freezing Ye Liuyun again.

But soon, Ye Liuyun absorbed those powers again.

"Haha!"

Xiao Bingxin suddenly burst out laughing.

By then he had already taken Ye Liuyun out of Ice Spring City, and also let him down, but his hand gripping Ye Liuyun did not loosen.

"You still have Ice Power, making you perfect to be my Profound Ice Palace disciple! Swear allegiance to the Profound Ice Palace now! I guarantee your treatment and resources will be absolutely better than what that damn City Lord gives you!"

Xiao Bingxin's face finally showed a hint of a smile.

Originally he just wanted to kidnap an Alchemist, but he didn't expect to end up capturing someone suitable as a disciple for the Profound Ice Palace.

Ye Liuyun couldn't laugh; although he had absorbed some Ice Power, being treated like this and having his dignity trampled, he naturally felt angry.

"Why should I join the Profound Ice Palace?"

"And swear allegiance?"

"Just based on the conduct of these bandits of your Profound Ice Palace, I'd pledge loyalty to you?"

Ye Liuyun asked back, one sentence after another.

At this moment, he was already using the poison source, invading Xiao Bingxin's body.

Because my strength is stronger than yours!

Xiao Bingxin, however, paid no heed.

He again used Ice Power to freeze Ye Liuyun, and this time continuously poured Ice Power into him, wanting to see Ye Liuyun's limit of endurance.

Ye Liuyun's strength was far inferior; soon his Ice Power could no longer endure.

However, he did not sit idly waiting for death.

He directly had everyone inside Space World help absorb it, even having Man Shu control Xuecheng to jointly absorb Xiao Bingxin's Ice Power.

"I'll let you pretend! I'll see how much Ice Power you have—enough for us to absorb!"

Ye Liuyun cursed resentfully in his heart.

Inside Space World, Ye Liuyun's clone, Man Shu, and Lei Ming were all fully absorbing Ice Power.

Xiao Bingxin was also greatly surprised.

He continually increased his Ice Power, but now he couldn't even freeze Ye Liuyun.

Your Ice Power is actually this strong?

Xiao Bingxin asked doubtfully.

But no matter what, Ye Liuyun's Alchemist skill and Ice Power made him determined to make Ye Liuyun a disciple of the Profound Ice Palace.

Since Ice Power couldn't subdue Ye Liuyun, he directly launched a Spiritual Soul Attack.

"I will directly implant the Profound Ice Palace's mark on your soul! The more you don't want to join, the more I will force you to join! Haha!"

Xiao Bingxin actually laughed out loud.

Turns out he's a pervert!

Ye Liuyun secretly thought.

But he now cannot speak, unable to retaliate at all.

Xiao Bingxin slowly released a Soul.

His Divine Soul Power was indeed much stronger than Ye Liuyun's.

The Soul's form was nearly double the size of Ye Liuyun's Soul.

Moreover, he deliberately slowed his speed, letting his Soul slowly approach Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness, increasing pressure on Ye Liuyun.

It seemed the more he tormented people, the happier he became.
