Chapter 1794: Helpless City Slaughter

~7 min read 1,254 words

"Little brother, they're all in the same group, just kill them all, right?"

Lei Ming asked.

"Mm! Kill them all!"

Ye Liuyun also agreed.

At this moment Man Shu had already released Ice Power, instantly freezing the charging guards.

"Huh?"

"The little girl has some skill! I just love training those who are strong! Haha!"

The City Lord laughed heartily.

Ye Liuyun and the others were unreserved, each brandishing weapons and began slashing.

The clone was also released by Ye Liuyun, joining the fight.

The City Lord, however, grabbed a woman in his arms, fondling her while watching the melee.

The Steward also rushed forward, attacking Ye Liuyun.

He, at the early stage of the Third Layer Realm, had thought he could easily defeat Ye Liuyun.

Yet Ye Liuyun cut him with Yi Dao, combined with Spatial Power, splitting him in two.

"Blade intent and Spatial Power, not bad, not bad! But your force is still insufficient!"

The City Lord continued to comment while watching.

Ye Liuyun had long seen that he was at the mid Fourth Realm.

Seeing he made no move, he let everyone practice their skills.

Then, over ten guards of the Third Layer Realm rushed up, encircling Ye Liuyun and the others.

These guards were perfect for Ye Liuyun and the others to train with.

Ye Liuyun and the others also exerted full strength, fighting these guards.

After much effort eliminating these guards, Ye Liuyun and the others' True Essence was nearly exhausted.

Yet outside the Grand Hall, there were still many guards.

At this moment another dozen guards surrounded them.

Ye Liuyun had no choice but to pull Man Shu and the others back into the Xuan Kong Shi, letting them recover, while releasing the Magic Vine.

The Magic Vine instantly extended vines, charging toward the City Lord and the guards.

At this time, inside the Chengzhu Fu, someone rang the alarm bell.

Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense detected that a large number of Martial Cultivators inside the city were streaming here.

These people were of all sorts: the restaurant owner and his staff, small shop owners, patrolling soldiers, ordinary civilians, even beggars joining the count, all rushed to reinforce the Chengzhu Fu.

"I get it, no wonder the City Lord said the whole city is his! Everyone in this city has a problem?"

Ye Liuyun had previously only thought that the merchant guild colluded with the Chengzhu Fu, but didn't expect that everyone in this city truly were the City Lord's accomplices.

Out of curiosity, Ye Liuyun, before the Magic Vine swallowed the City Lord, pulled out his Soul and performed a Soul Search.

It turned out that the border's living conditions were extremely harsh.

These people, to have a stable living environment, had to attach themselves to a great power.

The City Lord, at that time leading several hundred bandits, was a notorious bandit leader.

Gradually, more people attached to him, and he launched attacks, taking the city.

The city's inhabitants were all his own followers.

They usually earned profit by raiding everywhere, and some bandits' families set up businesses here.

Some people, being lazy, became beggars.

Some women, to survive, sold their bodies, and the City Lord also established brothels here, earning heaps of Crystal Stone.

Ye Liuyun searched the City Lord's hidden resource locations, then directly devoured his Soul.

"Kill them; kill as many as you can, the people of this city are yours!"

Ye Liuyun could only helplessly transmit the message to the Magic Vine.

The Magic Vine grew even more excited, vines wildly sprouting, spreading across the whole city.

Fortunately the small city wasn't large and its population wasn't many, otherwise its vine gates wouldn't be long enough.

Ye Liuyun and his clone rushed straight to the merchant guild they had just visited, seizing all its resources.

After taking the merchant guild's resources, he and his clone separately rushed to the restaurant and the brothel.

The restaurant's wine and meat reserves, and the brothel's Divine Crystal income, were all taken by him.

The city housed tens of thousands; if attacked from outside, everyone would resist, making it truly hard to break in.

However, fighting from inside outward was much easier.

Many city dwellers, upon seeing the vines, were terrified yet few fled outward.

They all knew the outside danger wasn't less than inside.

If they ran out themselves, they'd still meet death.

So each person fought desperately against the Magic Vine; its advance wasn't very fast!

"The people here are truly terrifying, each a desperado! It's also very sad!"

Ye Liuyun was also helpless, only able to keep his blade and continue killing.

Everyone who saw him came to fight him to the death.

If he doesn't kill others, he'll be killed!

When Lei Ming and the others recovered their strength, the battle inside the city still continued.

Ye Liuyun then released them again, letting them fight once more.

He finally returned to Chengzhu Fu, had the Magic Vine help open the basement beneath the City Lord's residence.

Inside the basement were countless resources the City Lord had looted.

The City Lord had robbed a lot, having once plundered several merchant guilds, and most of the supplies remained.

Divine Crystals were so numerous they were uncountable, filling several Storage Rings.

Now they all belong to Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun made a rough estimate: capturing this city would let them cultivate for a long time.

However, the ambient Crystal Stones here are scarce; Ye Liuyun only saw three in total.

In the Space World, Lan Xin and Hua Xiangyuan, who were helping with the sorting, were already stunned.

"Who was robbed?

So many Divine Crystals!"

Hua Xiangyuan shrieked.

They even found a whole Space's worth of mid‑grade Divine Crystals inside a single Storage Ring.

Ye Liuyun had seen this Divine Realm before; the energy in one mid‑grade Divine Crystal equals that of a hundred Low‑grade Divine Crystals.

Ye Liuyun mused, "This City Lord must be the rich one of this border region! Truly affluent!"

Lei Ming and the others soon exhausted their True Essence and returned to cultivate again.

Ye Liuyun released a Skeleton Puppet to scout for cultivation resources in some small shops.

The entire city had been wrecked by the Magic Vine; some merchants were demolished and their resources buried.

Even with few resources, Ye Liuyun did not want to waste them.

"Master, I've found a batch of pills!"

The Magic Vine transmitted the message to Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun hurried over and discovered a place dedicated to forging Blood Slaughter Magic Pills.

A foul, putrid smell hit his nose, and a large pile of corpses was stacked inside.

Many finished pills were wrapped in burlap bags, ready for sale.

"Can you eat this thing?

Does it contain toxins inside?"

Ye Liuyun asked the Magic Vine.

"That can't poison

me!"

"We confirm," they said.

"Then you can eat it!"

Ye Liuyun ignored it.

This kind of thing, Ye Liuyun had no interest in selling for money.

He would rather not profit from it, and thought it better to keep it from harming others.

The city gradually fell silent, with no more fighting sounds.

After swallowing a large amount of energy, the Magic Vine returned to Xuan Kong Shi and fell into sleep.

In the Space World, Lan Xin and Hua Xiangyuan were busy handling piles of Storage Rings and sorting cultivation resources.

Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense also detected many hungry people streaming in from outside, drawn by the strong scent of blood here.
