Chapter 2253: Slaying the Overseer

Ruan Haotian began to ponder how to retaliate against Ye Liuyun.

"Since the obvious way doesn't work, we have to use the old method! Aren't you here to join the battle?

Then I'll let you have enough fighting!"

After studying the battlefield information, he sent a messenger to Li Yuanlang, ordering Li Yuanlang to lead twenty thousand soldiers to the western front to block a foreign tribe's fifty‑thousand‑strong army.

Upon receiving the order, Zhao Hu immediately started swearing: "That shameless Ruan Haotian is obviously coming after little Ye!"

Ye Liuyun merely gave a faint smile: "No problem, I'm just about to contribute to eliminating the foreign tribe! I'll take this mission!"

Li Yuanlang, knowing Ye Liuyun's true strength, was untroubled and said in front of everyone: "Fine, the trouble you caused yourself, you should resolve yourself!"

"I'll have Xianying and Zhao Hu follow you as guides."

"The military order is as firm as a mountain; set out with your troops at once!"

After speaking, Li Yuanlang also sent the battlefield map to Ye Liuyun.

"Yes!"

Ye Liuyun replied with a nod and immediately ordered Yuan Hao to lead the troops out.

But as soon as they left the base, Ye Liuyun slowed the marching speed, having Yuan Hao spend half the time training and half the time marching.

This unit had just finished reorganization and still needed cohesion training.

Even though Ye Liuyun was confident, he still wanted to integrate the army to avoid any loss among the soldiers.

He even deployed Ye Tiandao to serve as their training instructor.

Ye Liuyun also brought out plenty of game meat to reward the soldiers, and personally grilled meat for Zhao Hu and Xianying, earning them endless praise.

"Is our marching speed a bit too slow?"

Xianying worried that problems might arise.

Ye Liuyun drew a map on the ground to analyze the situation for them.

"There is no major battle on the central front right now.

And the foreign tribe's fifty‑thousand troops on the western front are merely recuperating there.

So if we attack them, there will be no coordination and it won't affect anyone else.

Ruan Haotian actually wants me to lead twenty thousand men to a death march.

At that time, not only will there be no reinforcements, but once we annihilate his fifty‑thousand army, their forces will encircle us from the central and western routes.

Thus after we defeat those fifty thousand, continuous battles will follow, and the soldiers must be fully prepared,

When Ye Liuyun finished speaking, Xianying and Zhao Hu were relieved and quietly continued to eat and drink.

That day, Ye Liuyun was grilling meat with the soldiers when Ruan Haotian sent two little Leaders and a squad of soldiers to chase after them.

One of the little Leaders was Ma Tiannan.

Ma Tiannan's injuries had fully healed.

When a Martial Cultivator's True Essence is unsealed, the injuries quickly recover under the combined effect of pills.

Therefore, for a Martial Cultivator, the humiliation of punishment outweighs the physical damage.

Ruan Haotian sent Ma Tiannan again to act as the Overseer, seizing the chance to disgust Ye Liuyun.

When Ye Liuyun saw Ma Tiannan return, he couldn't help but laugh: "Does Ruan Haotian have no one left by his side?

I knew you'd send just you?"

"Enough chatter! We are acting on the President's orders, as Overseers, to supervise your combat here.

Ye Liuyun, I ask you, why are you delaying the advance…"

"Puff"—before Ma Tiannan could finish speaking, a long spear pierced straight through his chest.

"You…" Blood seeped from Ma Tiannan's mouth corner as he tried to turn and see who had stabbed him, but the spear held him in place, preventing him from turning.

From behind came Yuan Hao's voice: "I warned you, the God King's name is not to be uttered by a dog like you! Do you think I truly dare not kill you?"

After Yuan Hao finished speaking, he pulled the spear out in one swift motion.

A gush of fresh blood poured from Ma Tiannan's chest as he collapsed weakly to the ground.

"You…" The other little Leader immediately drew his weapon in warning.

They were all quite frightened.

Before arriving, they already knew Ma Tiannan had been beaten last time; Ye Liuyun is hard to deal with.

They thought that since they were Overseers this time, Ye Liuyun wouldn't do anything to them.

Unexpectedly, these people were even harsher than before, actually killing people outright.

For a moment they didn't know what to do.

If a fight broke out, they would be certain to die.

At that moment, Death Legion soldiers, all wielding shields and spears, surrounded them.

When the Death Legion soldiers gathered, the intense killing aura made their legs tremble with intimidation.

Yuan Hao gave no order to attack, quietly leaning on his spear as he watched them.

Ye Liuyun remained focused on grilling the meat, ignoring them.

But under this pressure, the little Leader could no longer bear it and bowed to Ye Liuyun, saying: "God King, please calm your anger; we are merely following orders and have no intention of targeting anyone!"

Ye Liuyun glanced at the meat, gave him no direct look, and calmly said: "I think the God King title doesn't really remind you of that President who is the true master here.

It's the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance's Alliance Leader who can make him clearly understand his status!"

"Yes, Alliance Leader, we will report to Leader Ruan when we return!"

The little Leader said immediately.

"Do you know why I have to kill Ma Tiannan?"

Ye Liuyun asked lightly again.

"That is because Ma Tiannan was disrespectful to the Alliance Leader, and should be killed!"

The junior commander replied with a trembling voice.

"Hm," Ye Liuyun nodded, looked at the junior commander with a teasing smile, causing cold sweat to bead on the commander's forehead.

"Your attitude isn't bad, so I won't make things difficult for you.

Since you've all been ordered to supervise the army, don't come here in vain.

Just stay then!"

Ye Liuyun then said lightly.

"We wouldn't dare, we wouldn't dare, how could we supervise the Alliance Leader's troops.

We'd better not get in the way here!"

The junior commander didn't dare stay any longer; if he said the wrong thing, a spear might pierce him.

"Take them away!"

Ye Liuyun only had Yuan Hao lead them away.

"Come with me! We, the Death Legion, are a place where you come when you want and leave when you want?"

Yuan Hao called out, found a spot for them, let them march with the main army, and collected their Transmission Talisman and Storage Ring.

Then he stared at the junior commander, ordering him to report to Ruan Haotian that they had entered Ye Liuyun's army and everything was fine.

After the arrangements, Yuan Hao tossed them aside and ignored them.

They still didn't dare run, fearing a barrage of arrows would turn them into hedgehogs, so they stayed trembling.

Watching the Death Legion Term (exclude) eat roasted meat, laughing and chatting, they felt resentful inside.

Others who become supervisors are treated to fine food and drink, lest they speak ill.

Coming to Ye Liuyun's side, not even being offered food and drink, and first one was killed, and any report is decided by Ye Liuyun.

They remain nervous, not knowing how Ye Liuyun plans to deal with them, whether they'll be used as cannon fodder.

After returning, how to explain to Ruan Haotian and whether they'll be punished are both unknowns.

In an instant, these Term (exclude) regretted taking the assignment.
