Chapter 201: Smooth City Capture

A few Monster Beasts heard the news and became excited; at last they could unleash themselves!

They let out a simultaneous roar, each revealing their true forms, and charged toward the saint and the fifty thousand soldiers.

Their oppressive aura was released, and the soldiers were all terrified, trembling all over.

Qiong Qi and Bai Hu, each over five zhang long, were already massive beings. After a flash of fire and a tiger's roar, large groups of soldiers were either burned to ash or fell to the ground, spitting blood and dying.

Lei Ming's body was even larger, and it flickered with blood‑colored lightning. Wherever she went, it was like a Blood Thunder hell; the surrounding soldiers were instantly reduced to ash by the Blood Thunder, without her needing to strike them. She sprinted through the formation, and a large number of soldiers perished.

As for Shi Yuan, it was even more exaggerated: a body over fifty zhang tall, three heads and six arms; each weapon he slammed down killed a swath of enemies, and the ground became riddled with craters. Even a single step he took would crush a group of soldiers.

The saint opposite them had his Soul first wounded by Ye Liuyun, then pierced by five beams of Golden Light released by Bai Hu. He couldn't even withstand a glance and fell directly.

Ye Liuyun did not waste time and began voraciously devouring Souls.

His Soul devouring had already reached saturation, so he stored the absorbed Soul power into the Sea of Consciousness, first letting the Ten Thousand Gods Command purify it, then later gradually absorbing it.

But the others were all deeply moved.

Ning Wang of Sea Transformation, third rank, killed him with a single glance!

Without even needing to act, the saint was struck, spitting blood, then killed by a single move of Bai Hu!

The fifty‑thousand‑strong army was instantly shattered by these Monster Beasts, completely unable to resist!

How powerful is Ye Liuyun really!

These Monster Beasts, except for Lei Ming, have all advanced to the Holy Realm!

Everyone, hearing the venting roars of the Monster Beasts on the battlefield, were all terrified.

Only Ye Liuyun remained calm as usual.

He also told King Tianyun and the Ye Clan elder the location and entry method of the Treasure Vault in Ning Wang's mansion, letting them arrange people to retrieve it.

After the Monster Beasts eliminated those soldiers, he led the group into the city.

The Monster Beasts cleared the way ahead, no one dared to block them, and they smoothly entered the city. Afterwards, King Tianyun began assigning the Golden Armor Guard to handle city defense, the Treasure Vault, and other matters.

He had long wanted his own territory, and unexpectedly that wish was easily fulfilled by Ye Liuyun.

With a city, they were much safer.

Ye Liuyun also had Qiong Qi set up a defensive formation around the city and Chengzhu Fu to guard against attacks.

Once everything was arranged, Ye Liuyun led the group and the Monster Beasts to settle down. They lived alone in a Side Courtyard within Chengzhu Fu.

Lin Xueying called Yu Er into a room alone and gave her two weapons: a sword of the False Holy Artifact and a sword of a Holy Artifact. She also gave her a set of purple scale armor she had forged herself, along with some high‑grade pills, Transmission Talismans and other items.

Then she sent a set of purple scale armor to Lin Xueying, and Lin Xueying stopped being angry with her. Otherwise, she would have remained resentful about Ye Liuyun's failure to save lives.

Although she knew Ye Liuyun acted for her sake, she was still upset. After receiving the purple scale armor, her anger vanished instantly, and she put it on at once.

Yu Er and Lin Xueying, both clad in purple armor, looked dashing. Lei Ming envied them greatly.

So she also transformed into human form, covering herself with her own scale armor. Her armor flashed with Blood Thunder arcs, making Yu Er and Lin Xueying envy her in return.

While they were admiring each other, someone reported that a large horde of Corpse Demons had arrived outside, gnawing the corpses of the soldiers beyond the city; the intense blood scent must have attracted them.

Ye Liuyun and his group immediately left the city to slay those Corpse Demons.

Lei Ming and the other women in purple scale armor instantly drew everyone's attention, making all the Ye Clan's female disciples envious.

Their vanity was greatly satisfied; they walked with heads held high, chests out, exuding an overbearing air.

Ye Liuyun laughed, "In a moment, you all will have to give it your all! All the men in the city are watching you!"

"Don't worry, little brother, I'll kill all those evil things in a moment!" Lei Ming said proudly.

"Don't just focus on killing! Remember to dig out the Crystal Core!" Ye Liuyun instructed them, then led them to leap onto the city wall.

At the same time, he secretly told Qiong Qi to look after Yu Er, and Bai Hu and Shi Yuan to protect Lin Xueying.

Below the city wall, over three thousand Corpse Demons rushed in, converging from different directions.

The stronger Corpse Demons sprouted fangs and upright ears. Those newly corrupted still kept human shape, but all were wrapped in skin over bones, resembling skeletons.

They cannot speak or understand human language, only craving blood and slaughter.

"Kill!"

Ye Liuyun drew the Demon Slaying Sword, let out a loud shout, and charged forward first.

Then three figures in purple armor followed, charging down. One of them, mid‑air, revealed the true form of a Thunder Dragon, spitting several arcs of Blood Thunder that shattered several Corpse Demons from afar.

Next, the three‑headed Monster Beasts transformed into their true forms and rushed out.

Although there were only seven of them, their combat power was unmatched.

Normally, soldiers dread facing Corpse Demons. These demons have hard bodies and feel no pain, fighting recklessly. Thus, Martial Cultivators of the same realm usually cannot defeat them; they must be one or two realms higher to eradicate Corpse Demons.

But at this moment, the Corpse Demons were like paper, collapsing in a single crushing blow from Ye Liuyun and his group.

Over three thousand Corpse Demons, in less than a quarter of an hour, were almost all gone!

Yu Er's cultivation level was the weakest, yet she fought without any fear. Moreover, she wielded a False Holy Artifact; against Corpse Demons of the same level, she could break their defenses. The False Holy Artifact sliced ordinary Corpse Demons as easily as cutting wood.

Qiong Qi also protected her well; any enemy of higher level was incinerated by his burst of fire.

Qiong Qi had communicated with Ye Liuyun via Divine Sense; he sensed Yu Er's bloodline was special and should be nurtured. So he took great care of her, giving her training without any harm.

Moreover, Qiong Qi was also tasked with burning corpses and extracting Crystal Cores, continuously spitting fire onto bodies and beckoning the Corpse Demons' Crystal Cores to come over.

When Bai Hu and Shi Yuan fought, they completely forgot about Lin Xueying, only caring about their own enjoyment.

Fortunately, none of these Corpse Demons were of Sea Transformation realm, so Lin Xueying could handle them herself.

The Golden Armor Guard on the city wall never entered combat. Their orders were to guard, not attack. They watched Ye Liuyun's group slaughter all around, their blood boiling with excitement.

"Too exhilarating! It's my first time seeing Corpse Demons killed so joyfully!"

"Who's those two women in purple armor? Not only are they beautiful, they're also ruthless against Corpse Demons!"

"You kid, don't even think about it. Those are all people of Holy Son Ye! Didn't you see Holy Son Ye wipe out Ning Wang's mansion because of one of them? How many heads do you have to dare to make a move on his women!"

The Golden Armor Guard on the wall, watching the spectacle, chatted endlessly.
