Chapter 1989: Challenging the National Master

Suddenly, Ji Wujian's clothes changed all over, turning into male attire, and another hole flute appeared in his hand, which he began to use as a weapon to counterattack.

Ji Wujian's voice also turned male, threatening Ye Liuyun: "Ye Liuyun, I am the senior disciple of the Ghost King National Master of the Eastern Dynasty."

Wanting to kill me isn't that easy.

This time we've lost.

Hurry up and let me and my fellow disciples go; maybe you'll still keep your lives and live a bit longer!

Ye Tiandao and the soldiers of the Sharp Blade Regiment saw this handsome young man before them and couldn't help but be greatly startled.

Ye Liuyun, however, laughed: "Not bad looking, but you're an idiot! Your two junior disciples have already been killed by me; do you think I'll still spare you?"

You killed them?

Ji Wujian, hearing this, also didn't expect that his two junior disciples hadn't managed to escape.

Immediately he then said to Ye Liuyun: "Don't indulge in fantasies."

You can kill them, but you can't kill me!

Saying that, he used a shield to defend with one hand while placing the hole flute to his lips and began to play it.

The ground instantly cracked open, and zombies were about to crawl out from underground.

At that moment, Su Miaoyin also behind Ye Liuyun began to play the flute; the two sounds intertwined, making the zombies' movements noticeably slow down.

The Sharp Blade Corps, however, were not those ordinary soldiers; in a few strikes they cleared the nearby zombies and continued attacking Ji Wujian.

Moreover, they formed groups of nine, jointly bombarding the shield, beating Ji Wujian back repeatedly.

Although Ji Wujian's realm was higher than Ye Liuyun's, under the effect of Ye Liuyun's sorcery, his True Essence consumption was relatively large.

He also had to constantly guard against the clone's stealth assassination, so after a while he showed signs of being unable to hold on.

He wanted to use Spatial Power to escape from the void, but his Spatial Power wasn't as strong as Ye Liuyun's; several attempts were all blocked by Ye Liuyun, and he couldn't even enter the void.

Helpless, he then used earth-attribute power to flee underground.

But Ye Liuyun released a Barbarian Ox, which kicked him up from the ground with a single stomp.

In the end, he was left with no recourse, only able to endure the blows passively.

Ye Liuyun, do you really want to fight to the death with me?

Ji Wujian shouted helplessly.

To fight to the death?

Do you have that kind of strength?

Ye Liuyun sneered.

Just now Ji Wujian said Ye Liuyun couldn't kill him, so he had already kept a wary eye, not launching a Spiritual Soul Attack on Ji Wujian, worried there might be a trap in his Sea of Consciousness.

Anyway, just continuing to drain him like this can also exhaust his True Essence, and when he's unable to fight back, we can still kill him.

Ji Wujian obviously also saw Ye Liuyun's intention, knowing he couldn't hold out much longer.

But facing these ordinary soldiers, he just couldn't break through.

Ye Liuyun, this is you forcing me!

Ji Wujian let out an angry roar, and suddenly a powerful Divine Soul Power burst forth from within his Sea of Consciousness.

A terrifying skeletal ghost's Divine Soul apparition suddenly appeared, that fearsome Divine Soul pressure startling the surrounding soldiers.

How dare you lay a hand on the disciple of this National Master!

After that ghostly Divine Soul swept around, it fixed its gaze on Ye Liuyun.

At least it's Eighth Layer Late Stage Divine Soul Power!

Ye Liuyun also felt the strength of this Divine Soul Power.

He hadn't expected that Ji Wujian's Sea of Consciousness actually hid a Divine Soul of the Ghost King National Master.

Fortunately he hadn't rashly launched a Divine Soul Attack; otherwise the outcome would truly be uncertain.

But now that he has revealed himself, Ye Liuyun no longer worries about him.

The clone's Golden Pupil can just destroy it.

Ye Liuyun calmly replied: "What about your disciples?"

Even if you yourself came, I'd still strike! Keep killing!

Immediately he waved his hand, and the soldiers again charged at Ji Wujian.

Arrogant junior! Let you know my might, become my Kuailei!

The Ghost King National Master said this, then directly rushed into Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness.

However, as soon as he entered Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness, he was enveloped by the Ten Thousand Gods Command, which began to absorb his Divine Soul power.

No wonder you brat are so arrogant!

The Ghost King National Master only now realized that Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness contains the Ten Thousand Gods Command.

However he showed no panic whatsoever: "To oppose me is to oppose the entire Eastern Dynasty; have you considered the consequences?"

Ye Liuyun's Divine Soul nodded affirmatively: "I've thought about it; so what?"

The Ghost King National Master also said contemptuously: "Hmph, oblivious to heaven and earth! The Eastern Dynasty will put a bounty on you, all the masters will come to kill you! You're merely a Fifth Layer Martial Cultivator; how many surprise attacks can you dodge?"

Then what do you say I should do?

Ye Liuyun feigned fear and asked back.

Your only way to live now is to become my Kuailei and work for me!

The Ghost King National Master still thought Ye Liuyun was scared, and said proudly.

Ye Liuyun, however, responded with a scornful smile: "Better forget it; I have no habit of being anyone's Kuailei."

You dare to play me?

That Ghost King National Master immediately showed a fierce look.

"I'm not just going to toy with you; I'm going to annihilate your Soul! What can you do to me?"

"You dare!"

The Ghost King Grandmaster let out a furious roar.

"I've already dared!"

Ye Liuyun smiled, then stopped paying attention to him and turned his focus to Ji Wujian's battle.

Ji Wujian is now surrounded and is barely able to defend.

He was also watching Ye Liuyun's condition, waiting for the Grandmaster to eliminate Ye Liuyun first before rescuing him.

However, what he received was Ye Liuyun's contemptuous smile.

Then, Ye Liuyun and the four Souls of his split self rushed into Ji Wujian's Sea of Consciousness, planted a Slave Seal on him, and began a Soul Search.

It turned out that although the Ghost King Grandmaster sent Ji Wujian and others here, he feared they might slip up, so he deliberately hid one of his own Souls inside Ji Wujian's Sea of Consciousness to deal with Ye Liuyun.

After controlling Ji Wujian, Ye Liuyun's Soul returned to his own Sea of Consciousness and launched a Soul Searching Technique against the already weakened Ghost King Grandmaster's Soul.

"Damn little mongrel, you treat me like this! When my true body arrives, I'll make you wish for death!"

He was still threatening Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun was too lazy to bother with him and instead sorted through the information he had obtained.

The Ghost King Grandmaster's Soul‑controlling technique is also formidable; like his Slave Seal, it forcibly makes a Martial Cultivator sign a Divine Soul Contract, turning them into a Kuailei.

Using this method, he has already controlled many masters and the heads of major forces.

Moreover, this Divine Soul Contract does not conflict with Ye Liuyun's Slave Seal.

In other words, a person can be controlled by both Ye Liuyun and the Ghost King Grandmaster.

However, when orders conflict, the Slave Seal's command is executed first.

If all those people come after Ye Liuyun, plus the Eastern Dynasty's wanted order, his pressure should indeed be considerable.

So he directly ordered Ji Wujian: "Send a Transmission Voice to the Ghost King Grandmaster, telling him that his Soul is now under my control, and you are also under my control.

If you want your Soul back, come find me directly! If you dare let the Eastern Dynasty put a bounty on me, I will annihilate his Soul together with yours!"
