Chapter 2006: Eradicate the Garrison
By the time Feng Hong Xiu and the werewolf arrived, the battle had already ended.
The two waited until the watchers withdrew, then leisurely made their way over.
Feng Hong Xiu originally wanted to see how Ye Liuyun attacked Chengzhu Fu.
She had already sensed the Seventh Layer strongman's duel that just occurred.
She didn't expect that the over seven hundred Martial Cultivator masters who had just returned would be slaughtered in an instant.
When Feng Hong Xiu reached Chengzhu Fu, she only saw it reduced to a ruin.
Ye Liuyun's clone, Magic Vine, and the people around him, even the Martial Cultivators he had just captured, including Wang Tianqing, had all been pulled back into Space World.
The Spearhead Corps was also released by Ye Liuyun.
Three thousand black‑armored soldiers stood in orderly ranks, awaiting Ye Liuyun's command.
"Take your troops and eliminate all the garrison soldiers, and kill Wang Yuxing!"
Ye Liuyun directly ordered Ye Tiandao, handing him the Ox Lion and Demon Wolf, and also sent Shadow to covertly protect her.
He originally wanted to send Zhu Que, but feared it would be coveted by the strong, so he wouldn't let it leave his sight.
"Yes," Ye Tiandao replied, immediately marching his troops toward the city gate.
"You're moving way too fast; I was a step behind, and you've already cleared the field! Were all these soldiers you brought with you?"
After Ye Tiandao left, Feng Hong Xiu was surprised and asked Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun nodded, saying nothing was hidden.
After all, they have a Divine Soul Contract, so they won't betray each other's secrets.
But any secret Feng Hong Xiu hasn't seen, Ye Liuyun won't voluntarily tell her.
"What's the situation with this mastermind?"
Feng Hong Xiu stopped asking, already knowing it was Ye Liuyun's Space World.
So she turned to the Wang Yufei who was hiding nearby.
Ye Liuyun immediately told Feng Hong Xiu how Wang Yufei caused Ling Er's tragic death.
After listening, Feng Hong Xiu angrily said to Ye Liuyun, "That woman has no humanity; killing her won't satisfy the hatred.
Hand her over to me; I'll deal with her in kind!"
"I thought the same! Sigh! Had I known it would bring such disaster to that guide, I wouldn't have told her that information!"
Ye Liuyun sighed.
"This can't be blamed on you."
If she knew nothing, after being captured by Wang Tianqing, she might have died at his hands!
Feng Hong Xiu comforted Ye Liuyun, saying
Ye Liuyun thought it reasonable and stopped the discussion.
However, he couldn't let Feng Hong Xiu act herself, so he summoned Qing Yan to do it for her.
"This kind of trash doesn't belong in Red Luan Tower.
Sell her to Qing Ling Kiln, so she'll spend her life serving worthless men.
Tell the owner of Qing Ling Kiln what I said, don't let her have too much free time! Then spread the word; those who've been bullied by him will soon come to patronize her!"
Feng Hong Xiu told Qing Yan.
Ye Liuyun felt his hair stand on end hearing Feng Hong Xiu's arrangement.
"It seems when a woman gets ruthless, it's truly deadly!"
After Feng Hong Xiu finished her instructions, before Qing Yan left, Ye Liuyun erased Wang Yufei's memory to prevent her from revealing Feng Hong Xiu's identity.
"You're quite meticulous!"
Feng Hong Xiu praised.
She, too, was angered by Wang Yufei and hadn't thought that far.
"Not at all! Your methods of dealing with people are more clever!"
Ye Liuyun said deliberately.
"Oh?
Are you feeling sorry?
Or should I keep her for you, train her, and have her serve you in the future?"
Feng Hong Xiu asked with a smile.
Ye Liuyun quickly replied, "Please spare me! That woman is too vicious; I wouldn't dare keep her nearby!"
"You call her vicious, yet blame me for being too harsh on her?"
Feng Hong Xiu then retorted.
"Fine! Your arrangement is correct!"
Ye Liuyun didn't argue, just discussed with her how to use Wang Tianqing to contact the Grand Master.
At this moment, shouts of battle came from the city gate.
Ye Tiandao's Spearhead Corps also clashed with the defending troops.
Although the garrison's combat strength was weak, some were Martial Cultivators of the Sixth Layer Realm.
If Ye Liuyun hadn't sent Shadow to protect Ye Tiandao, she would have suffered.
Ox Lion and Demon Wolf simply couldn't keep up.
Fortunately, the Spearhead Corps had newly incorporated the slave Martial Cultivators Ye Liuyun just bought, many of whom were Sixth Layer, giving them overwhelming advantage.
The garrison wasn't large, only twenty thousand, but their realms were generally higher.
The Spearhead Corps leveraged formation advantage to defeat the defenders, and Wang Yuxing was killed amid the chaos.
In this battle, although the Spearhead Unit captured more than five thousand people, they also lost over three hundred soldiers.
When Ye Tiandao reported the situation to Ye Liuyun, Ye Liuyun was somewhat surprised.
He had not previously expected that, when dealing with twenty thousand garrison troops, the Spearhead Unit would suffer such heavy casualties.
"It seems the soldiers of the eastern city, though few in number, have high realms!"
Ye Liuyun thought for a moment and ordered Ye Tiandao to report this situation to Yu Xiaofeng, He Lian Xiu, and Xiao Yunfang, among others, so that they would not be careless.
As for those five thousand captives, Ye Liuyun also had Ye Tiandao keep them, have them sign loyalty contracts, and then select the best among the best.
"The Spearhead Unit's composition should retain three thousand men, and keeping an additional three hundred reserves is sufficient.
The selection can be even stricter.
All other surplus people should be assigned as training partners for the soldiers!"
Ye Liuyun also told Ye Tiandao.
"Yes.
But how should we take these people away?"
Ye Tiandao asked Ye Liuyun.
"We eliminate them as we go; we are not in a hurry!"
Ye Liuyun replied, "If an emergency truly arises, we will bring them all into my Space World."
Afterwards, Ye Tiandao proceeded to arrange a preliminary screening of those captives, and then led the group out of the city to await Ye Liuyun.
After Ye Liuyun, Feng Hong Xiu, and Qing Yan returned, they left Blood Cloud City together.
After exiting the city and rendezvousing with Ye Tiandao, Ye Liuyun merely transferred the original Spearhead Unit soldiers into the Space World, while the others were left for Ye Tiandao to train as they moved.
Wang Tianqing was also released by Ye Liuyun, and, following Ye Liuyun's instructions, contacted the Grand Master.
"Tell the Grand Master that the city‑garrison soldiers were incited to rebel by the soldiers I previously sent, and that they also captured you.
You have now been taken out of Blood Cloud City by me.
The City Lord's residence has also been breached by the soldiers.
I am now leading the soldiers back to the border battlefield.
If he wishes to learn my whereabouts promptly, have him contact you via a Transmission Talisman."
"Master, if I say that, will he believe it?"
After Wang Tianqing was marked with a Slave Seal, he indeed began to consider Ye Liuyun's interests.
"Whether he believes it or not! Even if he doesn't, he'll ask you for my location, at least he'll send someone to verify.
That is enough.
After you transmit the message to him, go handle logistics and training partners for those soldiers.
If the Grand Master contacts you, directly tell him our position, and then give me a word."
After Ye Liuyun finished speaking, without hearing his reply, he immediately sent him to Ye Tiandao.
