Chapter 2384: Unified Objective
Yuan Hu said, meaningfully handing Ye Liuyun a Storage Ring that contained fifty thousand sets of military uniforms and armor, along with a large amount of resources.
However, the colors were all blue, not the Holy Land Dynasty's uniforms.
Ye Liuyun immediately understood that by wearing these blue uniforms, they would be bandits, rebels, and would have to bear all the risks themselves.
Yuan Hu's mind was focused on assessing Ye Liuyun and having him carry out a secret order.
Yet Ye Liuyun, taking advantage of Yuan Hu approaching him while no guards were nearby, launched a Spiritual Soul Attack on him directly.
His Golden Pupil could see the strength of Yuan Hu's Soul, so together with the four Soul clones, he surged in, to guard against any mishap.
The sudden attack also startled Yuan Hu.
His Divine Soul Power was also far from being a match for Ye Liuyun's Soul.
He was immediately marked with a Slave Seal by Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun hadn't expected that Yuan Hu's Soul had not signed any contract.
That means, even if Ye Liuyun controlled Yuan Hu, others wouldn't notice.
Ye Liuyun promptly performed a Soul Search to understand Yuan Hu's true intentions.
He discovered that Yuan Hu was indeed very loyal to the Holy Land Dynasty.
The deeds he performed were also orders from the Holy Land Dynasty.
However, Ye Liuyun's actions were too conspicuous, and Yuan Hu had already begun suspecting that Ye Liuyun was linked to the rebel force that had suddenly vanished earlier.
So he planned to, while Ye Liuyun went to eliminate Marquis Wanwei and Zhenxing Wang this time, observe Ye Liuyun's combat methods to see if they differed from before.
Once he found a clue, he would later capture Ye Liuyun for interrogation.
He just hadn't expected Ye Liuyun would strike him first.
Yuan Hu knew that the Holy Land Dynasty was now training troops in preparation for future resistance against the Foreign Tribe.
Yet Ye Liuyun also found that Yuan Hu shared the same thoughts.
He also believed the Holy Land Dynasty should dispatch troops to reinforce Watchtower Island and Outpost Island, preemptively defending against the Foreign Tribe's invasion.
However, his ideas could not influence the Holy Land Dynasty's decisions.
And the Holy Land Dynasty transferred him here deliberately to sideline him, not wanting his ideas to affect other Leaders.
Ye Liuyun also searched some of Yuan Hu's previous battle experiences, feeling that Yuan Hu truly was a rare talent.
"From now on, work with me! I share your thinking; I also want to unite against the Foreign Tribe."
"Our overall goal is still the same!"
Ye Liuyun immediately disclosed his identity directly to Yuan Hu.
He did so to get Yuan Hu to cooperate better, after all, voluntary cooperation and control via a Slave Seal are entirely different matters.
Yuan Hu was also quite surprised that Ye Liuyun came from Watchtower Island: "Those two small islands improved their refining equipment capabilities so quickly?"
He hadn't expected Ye Liuyun could forge the Xingkong Flying Boat.
Ye Liuyun nodded: "Refining technology is one aspect; we also found a new source for refining materials!"
Yuan Hu, feeling emotional, still said to Ye Liuyun: "I don't want to betray the Holy Land Dynasty."
"After all, this is where I grew up!"
"Of course, I also don't want to oppose the Holy Land Dynasty."
"After all, our enemies are all Foreign Tribe."
"But whether we can cooperate in the end depends on the Holy Land Dynasty's attitude."
"If you work with me, it's also fighting the Foreign Tribe."
"Working for the Holy Land Dynasty is also preparing to resist the Foreign Tribe."
"However, we're a bit weaker, so we just need to borrow some troops from the Holy Land Dynasty."
"If they refuse, we have to figure it out ourselves."
"On the contrary, you can fight the Foreign Tribe in advance."
"But you have wiped out many great armies of dynasties!"
Yuan Hu retorted.
Ye Liuyun, holding the paper Yuan Hu gave him, replied: "Aren't you yourselves also exterminating them?"
"Wouldn't it be better to let me take a portion, form a great army to resist the Foreign Tribe?"
Yuan Hu thought for a moment and had nothing to say about it.
In the end, Yuan Hu also compromised, at least Ye Liuyun was still aiming for an alliance to resist the Foreign Tribe; no matter the process, as long as the Foreign Tribe comes, Ye Liuyun will certainly oppose them.
After dealing with Yuan Hu, Ye Liuyun reminded him: "Black Kill has already issued a mission to assassinate you; be more vigilant."
"If you encounter danger, use the Slave Seal to contact me, and I will come to rescue you!"
Ye Liuyun, by both persuasion and Slave Seal control, finally managed to temporarily settle Yuan Hu.
"Yes!"
Yuan Hu also agreed.
Afterwards, Yuan Hu led his large army away from Wanwei City to other small towns to recruit soldiers, while Ye Liuyun, on the way, led his own team away from the main force, letting the soldiers change into blue armor.
"Remember, from now on our blue army will be called the Shangwu Corps, carrying out some secret missions assigned by the Dynasty."
"I will take you to acquire more resources, boosting your strength."
"When we switch to black armor, we become the Holy Land Dynasty's main army."
"We must conceal the Shangwu Corps' banner."
The soldiers immediately understood that Ye Liuyun intended to lead them to raid resources.
For these Martial Cultivators, the most important thing was advancing their realm, and they didn't care whose war they fought in.
Especially under the effect of loyalty contracts, they would have no thoughts of opposition at all.
Then Ye Liuyun led this Shangwu Military Corps and immediately rushed back to Wanwei City.
At this moment, most of the garrison troops stationed in Wanwei City had already been taken away by Yuan Hu.
Thus the remaining city defenders were all the weakest, and were easily defeated by Ye Liuyun.
The Wanwei Marquis led his several thousand guards to oppose Ye Liuyun, but was chased and slaughtered all the way by Ye Liuyun's troops, driven back to the Chengzhu Fu.
Ye Liuyun left only ten thousand soldiers to besiege the Chengzhu Fu, while the other twenty thousand went to destroy the Teleportation Array, loot the merchants' guild, and raid several major powers.
Facing this blue army, the Wanwei Marquis vaguely realized it was a force led by Ye Liuyun.
Therefore he immediately requested to meet Ye Liuyun.
Otherwise, he would have to lead his guards in a desperate resistance.
"Ye Liuyun?
"Who is that?"
The Shangwu Military Corps felt a bit strange.
"Wanwei Marquis, stop playing tricks; we don't know who you're talking about.
"We don't have this person in our army.
"Lay down your arms and surrender; I will spare your subordinates and family, otherwise no mercy!"
Ye Liuyun issued the final ultimatum.
"Not Ye Liuyun?
The Wanwei Marquis also didn't expect this to be a spirit army.
At this time, Wang Wei was also beside the Wanwei Marquis, and he confirmed: "I see their tactics; they indeed do not resemble the fighting style of the Lingyun Military Corps."
"Ah…… where did all these rebel troops come from!
The Wanwei Marquis sighed, and no longer wanted to resist.
In that recent defense of the city, he realized he was no match; if he continued to resist, even his family could not be saved.
The Wanwei Marquis led his troops in surrender, and his over a thousand guards were all absorbed into Ye Liuyun's army.
The Wanwei Marquis and Wang Wei were then brought by Ye Liuyun into the grand tent.
At this moment, Ye Liuyun finally released his clone, letting it change back to his former appearance to meet them.
