Chapter 1913: Temporary City Seal

At this moment, except for a few high‑armor‑level Foreign Tribe members, the rest had already been surrounded and killed by Corpse Demons.

Ye Liuyun and his duplicate rushed over, eliminated the last few Foreign Tribe who could devour Soul power, and then the two of them picked up the bodies of the Foreign Tribe and Corpse Demons while withdrawing.

They did not dare to stay any longer.

The strongmen emerging from the Foreign Tribe were powerful both in strength and combat experience.

If they stayed longer, the two of them might also be in danger.

Just as Ye Liuyun and his duplicate were about to retreat back into the Human Race city, the duplicate suddenly noticed that hundreds of sixth‑ and seventh‑layer Foreign Tribe strongmen emerged from inside the Foreign Tribe city and began scouting the battlefield.

Ye Liuyun immediately returned to Xuan Kong Shi and sent his duplicate racing to the Exchange Grand Hall to report the situation to Wu Administrator.

The duplicate displayed the Gold‑armored Alien Tribe's Yuan Pills and corpses, as well as the Yuan Pills of those sixth‑ and seventh‑layer Foreign Tribe, outward, then told Wu Administrator: "Before I entered the city, I saw the Foreign Tribe dispatch over a hundred sixth‑ and seventh‑layer strongmen out of the city."

"Prince?"

Wu Yongyuan also realized the situation was serious.

He immediately ordered the garrison to temporarily seal the city, then promptly summoned the city's strongmen to rush to the walls to assist the defense, and also prepared to activate the city‑protecting formation.

"What happened?"

The Martial Cultivators inside the city, seeing the strongmen in strict formation, immediately began to discuss heatedly.

Soon, the roar of numerous Foreign Tribe strongmen echoed from outside the city.

Having seen the city's guards already prepared for defense, they could only vent their anger by roaring for a while, then all retreated back into the mist.

Wu Yongyuan also asked Ye Liuyun to help observe the Foreign Tribe's movements.

"They really are retreating."

The duplicate confirmed as well.

Finally, the duplicate also told Wu Yongyuan that two Seventh‑layer Martial Cultivators remained at the central position of the battlefield, while everyone else had returned to the city.

"Hmm!"

Wu Yongyuan then relaxed, but he still took out a Transmission Talisman and reported the information to the Martial God Alliance.

Then he ordered the guards to tighten security, temporarily seal the city, and not let anyone go out to be killed gratuitously by the Foreign Tribe.

He said to wait until they calmed down before taking further action.

Wu Yongyuan also assigned additional defensive troops, ready to activate the city‑protecting formation at any moment, before allowing the others to retreat.

After returning to the Exchange Grand Hall, Wu Yongyuan burst into hearty laughter.

"You kid, you're really capable! You even managed to kill a Foreign Tribe prince!"

Wu Yongyuan praised.

"That was just luck!"

Ye Liuyun said modestly.

"This time there were so many sixth‑ and seventh‑layer Yuan Pills! Leave these corpses to me as well; the Gold‑armored Alien Tribe's armor also has value!"

Wu Yongyuan said.

"I also collected quite a lot this time!"

Ye Liuyun said, handing Wu Yongyuan several Storage Rings; one contained a large amount of Yuan Pills from the Foreign Tribe and Corpse Demons, and the others held various seized supplies from the Foreign Tribe and Human Martial Cultivators.

Wu Yongyuan was stunned.

After a pause, he said to Ye Liuyun: "Once you finish exchanging the resources this time, you can leave here! Staying any longer won't serve as training! Moreover, with your killing style, continuing could provoke a major move from the Foreign Tribe."

"Indeed! That's exactly what I was thinking!"

Ye Liuyun also nodded in agreement.

Wu Yongyuan nodded satisfactorily: "What you want to exchange this time, just tell me!"

This time, besides exchanging some cultivation resources and Intent Crystal Stones for everyone, Ye Liuyun exchanged most of them for Divine Crystals.

Because the people he brought, after this battle, now have no shortage of armor and items that defend against Spiritual Soul Attacks.

Though they are not eighth‑tier, they are sufficient for their current use.

Apart from those special cultivation resources, he truly has nothing else to exchange.

However, Ye Liuyun is not leaving for now; instead, he has his duplicate help Wu Yongyuan observe the battlefield daily.

He, meanwhile, is inside Xuan Kong Shi, filling the Storage Yuan Stone with Mysterious Origin.

At the same time, he is planning what to do after leaving.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun received a message from Yu Xiaofeng and others: "The Demon Race's witch has disappeared; the Demon Race suspects the Human Race kidnapped her and is preparing to dispatch troops to the Southern Region Royal City."

Yu Xiaofeng, on the border battlefield, captured many Foreign Tribe prisoners, most of whom he sent to the southernmost Demon Race territory to gather intelligence.

Originally they intended to seize the Royal City first, unify the Southern Region Human Race, and then attack the Demon Race.

Now the Demon Race is preparing to send troops to the Southern Region Royal City, and Yu Xiaofeng suggested they wait a while, letting the Demon Race clash with the Southern Dynasty first.

At the same time, have Ye Tiandao lead a spearhead unit to raid some garrisoned cities near the border, reducing resistance for the future advance.

This news caused Ye Liuyun to abruptly change his plan.

He naturally agreed with Yu Xiaofeng's suggestion.

Yet he thought that King Nanfu shouldn't be that foolish as to kidnap a witch.

To the Human Race, a witch is neither attractive nor powerful, so kidnapping her is useless.

He suspected that some Foreign Tribe was meddling, inciting war between the Human Race and the Demon Race.

So he decided that after leaving here, his duplicate would investigate the Demon Race, while he would rush to the Royal City to investigate, tackling both fronts.

Half a month later, the two Foreign Tribe strongmen remaining on the battlefield withdrew, and Martial Cultivators of various Foreign Tribe realms began hunting outside the city; Wu Yongyuan then released the newly arrived batch of Martial Cultivators and lifted the city‑seal order.

At once, Martial Cultivators of all realms left the city, having been cooped up for half a month, eager to go out and obtain some resources.

The Foreign Tribe battlefield gradually returned to its previous state.

Only then did Ye Liuyun bid farewell to Wu Yongyuan.

Wu Yongyuan gave Ye Liuyun a Token.

"This token is proof that you have already completed the mission."

You can later return here to exchange for some resources not available outside, bring some friends over, or come to take refuge.

As long as you go to the Teleportation Array in the Royal City and show this Token, you can be teleported here at any time.

Ye Liuyun kept the Token.

After thanking Wu Yongyuan, he then rushed to the Teleportation Array and returned to the Southern Region Royal City.

Guan Shan Yue then took Ye Liuyun's newly bought Transmission Talisman, returned to the Spirit Clan, and went to deliver it to Liang Xue.

In this way, Liang Xue and Ye Liuyun will no longer need to contact each other through him.

He also served as a hidden piece planted by Ye Liuyun, staying here first to help Ye Liuyun earn money.

When Ye Liuyun marches to the Spirit Clan, Guan Shan Yue will return to the Spirit Clan to act as an internal agent for him.

As for Zhao Ming Cheng, Ye Liuyun also didn't have time to go over and greet her.

After arriving at the Royal City, Ye Liuyun gave the Invisibility Cloak, Magic Vine, and Sealing Demon Tablet to his clone, letting him go to the Demon Race to investigate the matter of the Witch being kidnapped and to understand the Demon Race's strength.

He himself then booked an inn, and then used the Black Tower to teleport Wu Qingcheng and the others back to the City of Death, leaving them sufficient cultivation resources for Ye Tiandao to take them to train and improve.

He also handed the Magic Leopard, Magic Ape, Long-tailed Kite, Blue-spotted Snake, and two Ghost Tigers respectively to Wu Qingcheng, Su Miaoyin, Feng Wanru, Xia Lingshuang, Xia Tianqiong, and Yu Er.

Let these demon beasts guard their safety.

Afterward, he then returned to the Royal City to first ask Tong Xin about the situation.
