Chapter 2163: Evading Pursuit

Ye Liuyun's reminder came at just the right time, effectively saving Mo Shaowen once again.

Mo Shaowen was also puzzled—how did Ye Liuyun know about his affairs?

「Linyuan City is now plastered with notices to capture you.

The central dynasty will definitely block you from all sides! 」

Ye Liuyun told Mo Shaowen.

「You also came?

Still in Linyuan City? 」

Mo Shaowen was also astonished.

「Yes! I was also preparing to photograph the Divine Blood Fruit! 」

Ye Liuyun replied.

He still didn't know that Mo Shaowen was the one who had captured it for him.

「Haha, you didn't get a shot, did you?

No worries, this fruit in my hand is the one I captured for you! Come find me, I'll give it to you directly, so I don't have to send it to the Dongyun Dynasty! 」

Mo Shaowen said.

「What?

You captured it for me? 」

Ye Liuyun asked in surprise.

「Yes! Who saved my life! I happened to be involved in this matter, so I repaid you on the spot! 」

Mo Shaowen said lightly.

「I'm endlessly grateful! 」

Ye Liuyun also felt moved.

Although Mo Shaowen spoke casually, Ye Liuyun still understood his gratitude.

So Ye Liuyun quietly slipped out of the city to meet up with Mo Shaowen.

The moment they met, Mo Shaowen immediately handed the Divine Blood Fruit to Ye Liuyun.

「No need to thank me for such a great favor! 」

Ye Liuyun accepted with a smile, unreservedly.

His clone was missing a Divine Blood Fruit, so now the clone could also be upgraded synchronously.

The effect of this Divine Blood Fruit was obvious; after refining, the Bloodline Power was enhanced and purified.

Though the impact on cultivation speed wasn't yet visible, it was certainly harmless and beneficial to Ye Liuyun.

His Bloodline Power was already strong; now it became unmatched.

「Don't be so formal! I was hoping to be on equal footing with you, but you pulled me back from the edge of the abyss.

I guess once I entered the city, I'd be discovered right away! 」

Mo Shaowen also started chatting with Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun analyzed: 「I reckon the dynasty's Martial Cultivators will definitely pay close attention to you.

Because you're not only from the Spirit Clan, but also connected to Du Hun Mountain and the Chengzhu Fu of Jing Hun City.

Soon they'll leave the city to hunt you! 」

「Indeed! So I don't plan to run; I'll just hide using your Space World. 」

Mo Shaowen knew Ye Liuyun possessed a secret technique to alter his appearance, so he didn't hold back and slipped straight into Ye Liuyun's Space World.

After Ye Liuyun refined the Divine Blood Fruit, he emerged to replace his clone, letting the clone go back to refine another Divine Blood Fruit.

He then used the Thousand Illusion Technique to assume the guise of a wealthy family's disciple, leading Liu Yang and Yuan Bin back to Linyuan City.

He got along reasonably well with the two, having company on the road to avoid boredom.

Yet before they even entered Linyuan City, they encountered Martial Cultivators conducting a search.

These people thoroughly inspected Ye Liuyun and his companions; fortunately Liu Yang and Yuan Bin handled it smoothly, and since they were heading toward Linyuan City, the inspectors thought they had no reason to fall into a trap.

So after the inspection, the Martial Cultivators continued searching elsewhere and didn't trouble them further.

When Ye Liuyun and his group entered Linyuan City, they were inspected again before being allowed inside.

However, they found the Teleportation Array here still hadn't been activated.

「Mo Xiaotian really put a lot of effort into the treasure I hold! Too bad, both Divine Blood Fruits are now in my hands, yet he has not a single clue! 」

Zhongxing Wangchao's attempts to snatch failed and backfired; after several attacks on Ye Liuyun, they lost many Martial Cultivators, had Zhenhun Mountain reclaimed by Ye Liuyun, and this time added two Divine Blood Fruits, forging a grudge with Ye Liuyun.

They now didn't care about Ye Liuyun's strength, but didn't expect they'd raise a formidable opponent for themselves.

Ye Liuyun, seeing the Teleportation Array still inactive, originally considered using the Black Tower to teleport back to the Dongyun Dynasty, but then thought it unnecessary.

The city interior had been turned upside down by Zhongxing Wangchao's Martial Cultivators; now they also knew no clues could be found inside, so there should be no danger.

Ye Liuyun and his companions cultivated daily at the inn, and leisurely visited the merchants' guild in spare time, causing no delay.

The two twin pills Ye Liuyun plundered from Shi Lianfu were each consumed by him and his clone.

He then went to the Ten Thousand Merchants Alliance, bought many high‑grade body‑refining materials, and returned to continue cultivating.

But after a few days, the Martial Cultivators of Zhongxing Wangchao, unable to locate anyone, started a new round of screening.

「Aren't you all heading to the Boundless Sea?

Why haven't you left yet? 」

A Martial Cultivator asked Ye Liuyun and his group.

Ye Liuyun's original excuse for entering the city was that they were heading to the Boundless Sea, passing through Linyuan City.

「Before we go, we wanted to make one final boost here! 」

Ye Liuyun explained to those Martial Cultivators.

"I see you staying here; you must have some other purpose, right?"

The Martial Cultivator pressed further.

"What purpose could we possibly have?

You handle your affairs, we run our inn; what does it have to do with you?

Even if you have official business, Lin Yuan City shouldn't prevent normal travel, right?"

Liu Yang then began to argue with that Martial Cultivator.

"Are you courting death?"

"Believe it or not, I'll just seize all of you right now?"

The Martial Cultivator also threatened them.

"Don't get angry, don't get angry; let's speak calmly!"

Yuan Bin immediately stepped forward to mediate.

Liu Yang said angrily, "Since we arrived here, we've been inspected countless times! Not to mention the left and right checks; after staying two more days, will you still intervene?"

He and Liu Yang, one putting on a red face and the other a white face, actually coordinated quite well.

In fact, these Martial Cultivators were also tired of the inspections.

They had come to know almost everyone staying at the inn.

"Enough!"

Someone beside the Martial Cultivator also urged him.

He also said to Ye Liuyun and the others, "You have three days to leave Lin Yuan City, or you will be treated as accomplices of rebels!"

"Fine, fine, can't we just leave now!"

Yuan Bin immediately went down the steps.

"If we're leaving, then leave; I'll never come back to this wretched place!"

Liu Yang, fuming, turned around and slammed the door shut.

After the inspectors left, Ye Liuyun decided to head to Wuya Sea first, lest they really capture us and use us as numbers.

If they can't catch Mo Shaowen, they might just grab a few people to impersonate his comrades.

Since we can't leave now anyway, we might as well use the chance to learn about Wuya Sea.

Ye Liuyun immediately had Yuan Bin purchase a nearby map from the merchants' guild.

Before reaching Wuya Sea, they still have to pass through more than ten small towns.

One of them, a city called Wuxiang City, caught Ye Liuyun's attention.

"Zhao Ming Cheng!"

Ye Liuyun recalled a woman he had met while refining his body on the Alien Battlefield.

It was because of her that the Spirit Clan's Guan Shan Yue was subdued.

"We'll see; if convenient, we can meet her, if not, just have a look and leave! She might not even be home!"

Ye Liuyun didn't have much hope.

With Liu Yang and Yuan Bin, Ye Liuyun set off at once toward Wuya Sea.

At first, the two cities they passed through were still subject to checks, but once they went farther, everything returned to normal.

Ye Liuyun only occasionally saw a few Martial Cultivators of hidden realms using Divine Sense to probe within the city; no one directly questioned them anymore.
