Chapter 1935: Power Transfer

After Ye Liuyun finished stating his request, Mu Changtian was also puzzled, not understanding Ye Liuyun's true intention.

"After conquering the Southern Region, you won't take the throne yourself, and you have me gather information on the central area—do you also intend to seize the central area as well?"

Mu Changtian retorted.

"Swish!"

Suddenly a flash of blade light flickered.

Ye Liuyun's Yi Dao sliced straight out, appearing in front of Mu Changtian.

At that moment he was powerless to resist, and Ye Liuyun's Yi Dao cut off his left arm.

"Ah!"

Mu Changtian let out a loud scream, his face turning ashen.

Ye Liuyun's strike also employed flame power and Demon Qi.

He now cannot even attempt to heal the wound.

Although a Martial Cultivator can use True Essence to recover injuries.

but if a severed limb is not restored for a long time, later recovery becomes difficult.

Ye Liuyun clearly intended to leave a mark, to make him remember this lesson.

"Do you think I'm just chatting with you?

What I intend to do is something you have no right to ask about?"

Ye Liuyun said coldly.

Mu Changtian was in such pain that beads of sweat dripped continuously.

At that moment, Ye Liuyun had already drafted a Divine Soul Contract, waiting for him to sign.

When Mu Changtian hesitated even slightly, Ye Liuyun gently raised his hand.

Ye Tiandao immediately pressed Mu Lianqing with one hand, while raising his other blade to strike down.

"I sign, I sign!"

Prince of South Fu Mu Changtian gritted his teeth and signed the Divine Soul Contract with Ye Liuyun.

After the Prince of South Fu finished signing the Divine Soul Contract, Ye Liuyun continued, "Mu Lianqing, go open the Defense Array.

At the same time announce outward that a ceasefire agreement has been signed with the Death Legion.

The agreement stipulates that the Prince of South Fu transfers the throne to Mu Lianqing, who from then on becomes the Prince of South Yong, continuing to govern the Southern Region.

Mu Lianshi and Ye Liuyun both accepted the role of Grand President of the Southern Dynasty.

Mu Lianshi commands the Imperial Guard.

Ye Liuyun oversees the borders, the garrisons of each city, and the Death Legion.

The royal seal left on the table was casually tossed by Ye Liuyun to Mu Lianqing.

"From now on you are the Prince of South Yong! As for how to convey orders, ask your father! I will leave the city first to take the Death Legion away!"

After speaking, Ye Liuyun healed Mu Changtian's wound, then gave him a Healing Elixir to accelerate recovery.

Then he ordered the Royal Mansion's Formation to be opened, and, leading the spearhead squad, strode out of the city flamboyantly.

The city's garrison stared with wide eyes!

"When did the enemy forces enter the city?

and why are they strolling out so flamboyantly?"

Inside the Royal Mansion, the partially recovered Mu Changtian immediately used True Essence to send Transmission Voice throughout the city.

broadcasting Ye Liuyun's words outward.

At this point, the garrison and the townsfolk finally realized that the battle had already ended!

"We've replaced the Prince, but at least it's still a member of the Mu family! There shouldn't be any major changes!"

People began speculating one after another.

Yet some thought that Ye Liuyun exerted such effort, likely not satisfied with merely a Grand President's position.

But no one knows the details of the negotiations.

Afterwards, Mu Lianqing went to summon the Imperial Guard Leader, ordering him to bring troops back to the city.

After Ye Liuyun left the city, he also released Mu Lianshi, told him the outcome, and instructed him to return to assist Mu Lianqing in maintaining order, then ordered the two hundred thousand troops on the Eastern Border to return to the Eastern Border on standby.

Afterwards Ye Liuyun returned to the Death Legion, seized the nearest major city with his troops, garrisoned there, and told Pei Yong to use the time to reorganize the Reinforcement Troops.

He also had Yu Xiaofeng select and train a reserve corps, perfecting the echelon structure.

Henceforth they could replenish the Death Legion's manpower at any time.

Xiao Yunfang led troops to eradicate the rampant bandits around the Royal City, maintaining stability in its vicinity.

Afterwards they headed north to subdue the military authority of the Northern Border.

Because this time, the Northern Border sent no reinforcements and remained silent.

Ye Liuyun feared those people might refuse to be governed.

Meanwhile, his clone immediately informed the Demon Race, urging them to advance swiftly to the Broken Demon Pass to end the war sooner.

Of the two hundred thousand border troops stationed at Broken Demon Pass, only twenty thousand fresh soldiers were left to guard the frontier.

The rest were transferred to the Eastern Border.

Ye Liuyun's next objective was the Eastern Border battlefield.

On the Western Border battlefield, there are one hundred thousand guards from the City of Death, along with some of the original border troops' Reinforcement Troops, all kept by Pei Yong at the border awaiting reorganization.

Once these soldiers are reorganized, holding the Western Border will be sufficient.

On Ye Liuyun's side, the entire power transition proceeded very smoothly.

With his massive army at the forefront, no one dared voice opposition.

The Demon Race side no longer had the threat of a large army; dealing with just some city-defending forces was much simpler.

In just a few days they fought to the outskirts of Demon Break Pass.

The cities they captured would henceforth be their territory, so they did not destroy them; they simply appointed new city lords, replacing human soldiers with Demon Race soldiers.

At first everything went smoothly, but the Demon Race people were dazed by this easy victory.

The Demon Race clan chief and most leaders advocated that after passing Demon Break Pass, they should go to the Southern Region cities to loot some resources and bring them back.

Anyway, they were not prepared to occupy such a large territory, because while occupation was easy, their forces were insufficient to hold it.

Ye Liuyun urged the Witch to do her utmost to dissuade them.

But few of the Demon Race were as clear-headed as the Witch; the arm cannot twist the thigh, and ultimately, with the Demon Race clan chief's support, the Demon Race army boldly advanced into Demon Break Pass.

The twenty thousand soldiers defending here were all new recruits, and they never expected the Demon Race to come attack them.

The city gate was directly breached.

Afterward, the Demon Race left only twenty thousand troops to guard the city, while the remaining 180,000-strong Demon Race army split into three groups and rushed to various human cities to burn, kill, and loot.

"I'm really sorry; I can't help at all!"

The Witch repeatedly apologized to Ye Liuyun's clone.

"Are you in position?"

Ye Liuyun contacted He Lian Xiu.

"In position, ready to strike at any moment!"

He Lian Xiu replied.

"Give me the coordinates; I'll bring the Spearhead Team over as well!"

Ye Liuyun said.

Immediately, he summoned the Spearhead Team, gathered them into the Space World, used the Black Tower to teleport, and arrived near He Lian Xiu's warship.

He Lian Xiu's warship, which had only just arrived here not long ago, was also hidden deep in the mountains and forests.

"Let's go, straight to attack Demon Break Pass!"

As soon as Ye Liuyun arrived, he immediately led the troops out.

Ye Tiandao led the Spearhead Team ahead, launching an assault on Demon Break City.

The Demon Race soldiers inside Demon Break City were also engaged in burning, killing, and looting.

But they did not expect to encounter fierce resistance from the Martial Cultivators here.

Once these Demon Race soldiers entered the city, they could not maintain their formation, and their strength greatly diminished.

Thus they also suffered heavy losses.

Finally, the officer in command of the troops, the Vice Leader, in a fit of rage, ordered the Demon Race soldiers to slaughter the city, killing anyone they saw, leaving none alive.

When Ye Tiandao led his forces to attack the city, they had just finished fighting and were gathering resources.

Upon seeing this horrific scene inside the city, all of whom were Demon Race soldiers, Ye Tiandao naturally showed no mercy and immediately began killing.

When Ye Liuyun brought the main force to arrive, another great battle ensued, directly wiping out those twenty thousand Demon Race soldiers.

"Clean up the battlefield, impale the corpses of all Demon Race soldiers on weapons, and toss them beneath the city to be left exposed."

Ye Liuyun directly ordered.
