Chapter 2252: Forming the Beam

Ye Liuyun felt that Li Yuanlang didn't seem very concerned about Ruan Haotian's matter.

Perhaps he lacked experience leading a large army and didn't understand these matters.

Li Yuanlang only cared about Ye Liuyun's cultivation: "You shouldn't devote all your energy to dealing with the Foreign Tribe.

After all, your realm is still insufficient; you should focus on cultivation.

Ruan Haotian's issue doesn't require your worry; let a few of us handle it! With Yao Guangyao's Ten Thousand Merchants Alliance, he won't do anything to us!"

"Yes!"

Ye Liuyun also agreed.

Since he's there, if Ruan Haotian dares to act, we can strike him later.

Moreover, he thought the Master's words were reasonable, and with Yao Guangyao's Ten Thousand Merchants Alliance, Ruan Haotian truly couldn't do anything to them.

Next, Li Yuanlang inspected Ye Liuyun's cultivation status and was quite satisfied with his strength.

Ye Liuyun's current realm actually no longer requires much guidance from him.

He only emphasized a few key cultivation directions, then let Ye Liuyun settle for now, promising to take him to the battlefield later to grasp the real situation when the chance arose.

Afterward, Ye Liuyun released Yuan Hao and the twelve thousand ordinary soldiers, having him reorganize those troops and the previously arrived ones, issuing them black‑gold armor and weapons.

These soldiers all wore armor without gilt, yet their defensive and offensive capabilities were far stronger than before.

Yuan Hao's ability to command troops was also strong, and Ye Liuyun felt very confident in him.

Li Yuanlang had already coordinated duties with Ye Liuyun: any matter requiring soldiers to go into battle was Ye Liuyun's responsibility, while any matter needing strong fighters was arranged by Li Yuanlang.

However, before Yuan Hao finished reorganizing the troops, the minor commander Ma Tiannan whom Ye Liuyun had previously encountered arrived with a hundred soldiers at the garrison, shouting outside for Li Yuanlang to come out and answer.

Li Yuanlang and his companions immediately went out to meet them.

"Li Yuanlang, I come by the Grand Leader's command to find Ye Liuyun; have him appear before me at once!"

Ma Tiannan barked arrogantly.

Although Li Yuanlang and his group disapproved of his swagger, they could not openly defy the Grand Leader's order, so they sent someone to summon Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense had already taken notice of the outside situation.

He directly used Transmission Voice to tell Yuan Hao to lead soldiers to attack Ma Tiannan.

"Audacious! The name of the Divine Realm's God King, and you, a minor commander, dare to utter it! Take him down for me!"

Yuan Hao immediately followed Ye Liuyun's instruction, commanding his troops to strike at the men Ma Tiannan had brought.

These soldiers were all from the Death Legion; even against strong opponents, their formation attacks could easily subdue them, especially since their realms were comparable.

Once they moved, none of them could escape.

Li Yuanlang and his group could not intervene, only pondering how to handle the aftermath.

"You dare move against me?"

Ma Tiannan hadn't expected that Ye Liuyun would arrive and have his subordinates disobey, then try to take him down.

"Hum! Disobey?"

Disobey whose orders?

The God King is the ruler of the Divine Realm, overseeing the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance; even your commanders are under the God King's control! You, a petty commander, dare to utter the God King's name—don't think you can move him; even if we slay you, it's your own fault!"

Ma Tiannan's realm was not low; after Yuan Hao finished speaking, he coordinated with the soldiers to strike him, wounding and knocking him down.

Then he sealed their True Essence and bound them all.

"Defying the Grand Leader's command like this will be punished!"

Ma Tiannan was not yet resigned and still tried to use the Grand Leader as a shield.

"One hundred palm slaps, then cut out his tongue!"

Ye Liuyun's voice suddenly came, not particularly cold, even a bit lazy, yet it made Ma Tiannan shiver all over.

"Yes!"

Yuan Hao replied with a "Yes," then immediately ordered the soldiers to carry it out.

Ma Tiannan's True Essence was sealed, leaving him defenseless; the hundred palm slaps smashed his face, and the soldiers then cut away his stone with a knife, leaving him only to howl in pain.

At that moment, Ye Liuyun's lazy voice sounded again: "Go back and tell your Grand Leader that I am outside his jurisdiction."

Yuan Hao also threatened: "Consider yourself lucky, kid! If you dare again to utter our God King's title, I'll take your life outright.

Got that?"

Ma Tiannan had no room to argue and kept nodding.

"Scram!"

Only then did Yuan Hao have the soldiers release their bindings, but he did not lift the seal on their True Essence, and simply drove them back.

"Ha ha! Little Ye, that move was so satisfying to watch!"

Zhao Hu immediately burst into a loud laugh.

"Hmm!"

Li Xianying also nodded repeatedly: "The God King's title is indeed intimidating! But he's right; now that he heads the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance, he truly need not obey Ruan Haotian's commands.

In fact, Ruan Haotian should be the one following his orders!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun, Ma Shan gave the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance strongmen still by Ruan Haotian's side orders to spread the news, making everyone know that the Alliance's authority supersedes Ruan Haotian's, seizing the narrative high ground so Ruan Haotian could not retaliate directly.

These old guys, though weak in combat, had extensive connections, so disseminating the information was easy for them.

Li Yuanlang shook his head helplessly: "He doesn't know the situation; his nonsense is one thing, but you all stop adding to the chaos! Ruan Haotian will definitely come looking for trouble, maybe make us complete another mission!"

"It's just a mission! Not the first time; are we scared?"

Zhao Hu said nonchalantly.

Li Yuanlang didn't argue with him, instead telling everyone to return and rest.

He didn't go to Ye Liuyun to say anything, just let Ye Liuyun continue his cultivation in peace.

When Ma Tiannan brought the soldiers running back to the base, only then did everyone know that the God King had also arrived at the Alien Battlefield.

Many Martial Cultivators were discussing whether the God King or the Leader was greater.

At that moment, the strong ones of the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance took effect, telling the Martial Cultivators that the entire Alien Battlefield was under the management of the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance, and Ye Liuyun was the Alliance Chief of the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance, so of course Ye Liuyun was greater.

So many Martial Cultivators felt for a moment that what Ye Liuyun did was not wrong.

A God King, the Alliance Chief of the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance, being summoned and dismissed by a little Leader, getting beaten up is considered light.

Not killing him outright is already considered merciful.

Ruan Haotian originally still wanted to send some experts to strike back.

But after hearing this news, he also dared not act recklessly.

Although he is the Great Leader, he is indeed under the management of the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance.

Although the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance has never interfered in his decisions as Leader, he still has to rely on the resources of the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance.

The supplies from the Ten Thousand Merchants Alliance are all ordinary resources.

Some especially top-tier resources also come from the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance.

But Ruan Haotian's subordinates were publicly slapped in the face, making his dignity as Leader unbearable.

Thus he and Ye Liuyun also formed a grudge.
