Chapter 2167: Haphazardly Tying Red Threads
Zhao Ming Cheng now also cannot tell them Ye Liuyun's identity, only saying he is a friend she already knew, and his status is very eminent.
He merely disguised himself to evade the Zhongxing Wangchao's pursuit, so she didn't recognize him at first.
"No wonder! I said no one would help us without reason! So it turns out he's already the young lady's friend."
"To hold a Space World that can contain so many people, it certainly can't belong to an ordinary person!"
"Exactly, a piece of gilded armor—if it's given as a gift, it's definitely not for an ordinary person!"
At this moment, an Elder deliberately asked her about Ye Liuyun's age and marital status.
"He's a few years older than me, but he should have many women!"
Zhao Ming Cheng, upon saying that, also felt a bit regretful.
The last time she refined her body with Ye Liuyun, she saw that many women were by his side.
"A man with power and status naturally has many women!"
The Elder then urged Zhao Ming Cheng further.
"Exactly! As long as he truly treats you well, you don't need to mind so much!"
Another Elder also advised.
"Eh?"
Zhao Ming Cheng finally understood what the Elders meant.
"What's that?"
"He treats you so well, and you're still not ready to give yourself in marriage?"
"I think he's also interested in you; otherwise he wouldn't give you such a valuable gift!"
The Elders, one after another, kept urging her.
"It's not that, Elders have misunderstood! Though the gilded armor is precious, it shouldn't mean much to him!"
Zhao Ming Cheng hurriedly explained.
"If it means nothing, then why does he have not a single Martial Cultivator by his side?"
An Elder retorted.
"This...," Zhao Ming Cheng had no answer to that.
"Miss, we old fellows might never see you again after this battle! If we can be sure you have a good match, we can also go peacefully."
These Elders took turns bombarding her, insisting Zhao Ming Cheng marry Ye Liuyun.
Finally, pressed by them, Zhao Ming Cheng could only say, "Even if I'm willing, it still depends on his attitude!"
"You don't need to worry about that; we'll take care of it!"
An Elder said.
Thus, the Elders spared Zhao Ming Cheng and went to persuade Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun was also left bewildered by them, and looked at Zhao Ming Cheng.
"Don't look at me; they've been grinding me for half a day! I have no idea what madness they're spouting!"
Zhao Ming Cheng used Transmission Voice to explain to him.
Ye Liuyun also understood their feelings, wanting to find a stable backing for the Zhao family and Zhao Ming Cheng.
So he didn't blame the Elders, merely placated them: "We'll talk after we eliminate Chen Bà Tiān's group!"
But those old fellows wouldn't be so easily brushed off; they insisted he confirm on the spot.
In their view, taking another woman is just something Ye Liuyun could nod to.
Liu Yang, Yuan Bin and others watched the joke from the side, gloating.
"Why does the master make a fuss? A beauty who comes to the door, why push it away?"
"I think this woman looks pretty good too!"
Liu Yang, having followed Ye Liuyun for a short while, only knows that Ye Liuyun has many women, but he has only seen Wu Qingcheng.
"Then you haven't seen the master's other women."
"Each one is as beautiful as a celestial maiden, and each can hold her own!"
Yuan Bin, having followed Ye Liuyun longer, knows more.
"Mm!"
Liu Yang also nodded.
He thought his words made sense; the other women were probably not much worse than Wu Qingcheng.
"Having many women is also a hassle!"
Liu Yang sighed.
Even Zhao Ming Cheng found it funny to see Ye Liuyun awkwardly surrounded by the Elders.
She also felt a bit nervous.
She both hoped Ye Liuyun would agree, yet didn't know how to get along with him after he did.
Ye Liuyun, pressured by them, felt extremely irritated, thinking he shouldn't meddle in such trivial matters.
"Master, a Ninth Layer Late Stage strong one is approaching!"
It was Liu Yang who first used Divine Sense to spot the distant enemy and alerted Ye Liuyun.
"Prepare to meet the enemy!"
Ye Liuyun let out a sudden roar, startling the Elders nearby, and finally they stopped pestering him.
At this moment, Ye Liuyun released his Divine Sense and saw ten Ninth Layer Late Stage Martial Cultivators approaching.
"You stay back, prepare for battle!"
Ye Liuyun ordered, releasing an invisible clone, and together with the clone charged forward.
"Finally we got rid of those Elders!"
Ye Liuyun finally let out a sigh of relief.
But there were ten Ninth Layer Late Stage Martial Cultivators opposite us, and they weren't easy to handle.
These Martial Cultivators immediately used Spiritual Sense Lock on Ye Liuyun.
"That's the kid! He captured Young Master Chen Tao; you must be more restrained, capture him alive!"
A leading Martial Cultivator gave the others a command.
Ye Liuyun rushed forward, flicked his hand, released Chen Tao, and grabbed Chen Tao's throat with one hand.
"If you dare strike, I'll snap his neck right away!"
Ye Liuyun threatened.
These Martial Cultivators hadn't expected Ye Liuyun to use this move.
They unleashed realm pressure, but it had no effect on Ye Liuyun.
"Spiritual Soul Attack! Each of you release a Soul, and attack together!"
The leading Martial Cultivator ordered.
They knew Ye Liuyun's Divine Soul Power was strong enough to control Martial Cultivators, yet they thought even that couldn't match a combined assault.
Now Chen Tao was held in Ye Liuyun's hand.
With a split second, he could choke Chen Tao to death.
Thus, besides realm pressure and Spiritual Soul Attack, they had no way to instantly control Ye Liuyun.
So each Martial Cultivator released a Soul, charging into Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness.
Ye Liuyun immediately placed a Slave Seal on each of those Souls.
His invisible clone, seizing the chance, began launching Spiritual Soul Attacks on them, placing Slave Seals on their remaining Souls.
"Puff…"
Several Martial Cultivators' Souls lost connection and they coughed up blood.
At that moment, the clone had already controlled three Martial Cultivators, and Liu Yang was summoned by Ye Liuyun to help control another one.
The remaining six, seeing the unfavorable situation, turned to flee.
Ye Liuyun, however, retrieved Chen Tao, drew the Great Wilderness Bow, aimed at them one by one, but didn't actually fire.
These Martial Cultivators, having lost half their Divine Soul Power, could no longer resist the Great Wilderness Bow's pressure; once aimed at, their Souls trembled, they couldn't even run fast, and finally the clone caught up and placed Slave Seals.
Ye Liuyun re‑placed Slave Seals on the Martial Cultivator Liu Yang was controlling, and reclaimed all ten Martial Cultivators back into the Space World.
Chen Tao was now awake.
At first, seeing so many powerful Martial Cultivators come to rescue him, he thought he was saved and shouted, cursed, and threatened Ye Liuyun within the Space World.
But soon, those ten Martial Cultivators were also pulled into the Space World by Ye Liuyun.
And after entering, they all glared at him resentfully.
If not for him, they wouldn't have become Ye Liuyun's slaves.
A Martial Cultivator leapt up, shot arrows left and right, slapped Chen Tao twice, and immediately knocked him out.
Chen Tao's Nascent Core is now ruptured; even though he restrained his True Essence, he still battered Chen Tao until his skin was torn.
If Ye Liuyun hadn't kept Chen Tao for a purpose, he would have slapped Chen Tao flat into a meat patty!
