Chapter 2396: Recognized by All

The scout assassin died, and the four assassins behind him immediately stopped.

The assassins on the other route also heard the commotion and moved toward this spot.

Ye Liuyun immediately fired another arrow, curving it toward the other group of assassins.

The arrow swept past those four assassins, but it was aimed at the other group.

"Can this arrow still curve?"

Those four assassins were also bewildered.

But soon they heard a "bang," and the arrow struck one assassin from the other group.

It only wounded him, not killing him, as his protective garment blocked it.

But this made them both notice each other, and they quickly began to fight.

You Ming and the others listened to the fierce fighting outside, but none dared to use their Divine Sense to investigate, for fear of being discovered.

They also guessed that it was two other groups fighting.

Only from You Ming's position could they see Ye Liuyun acting, knowing he had provoked the two groups into fighting.

Those two groups, one of five and one of four, quickly sorted out who would win.

Ye Liuyun took the opportunity to fire two arrows in quick succession at the nearest assassin of the side about to win, blasting him to death.

"Anyone else!"

His companions immediately warned each other, after quickly killing their opponent, they either hid behind trees or lay in the grass to avoid the arrows.

Ye Liuyun, however, could see their positions clearly.

Seeing them hide and not attack, he immediately fired two arrows in succession at a Martial Cultivator.

Moreover, the arrows were shot in different directions.

This time, as soon as he shot the arrow, it also revealed his position, and the enemy finally spotted him.

"Surround him!"

At their leader's call, they all moved to surround Ye Liuyun.

"Ah!"

But the Martial Cultivator targeted by Ye Liuyun's two arrows let out a startled cry.

He felt the threat of the arrows.

But by the time he saw those two arrows, it was already too late to dodge.

The two arrows came at him from different directions.

He took out a Defense Artifact to block one arrow, but another arrow pierced him from the side.

He had no protective garment, and he died instantly.

"Damn it, it's that low-realm brat!"

The other three saw Ye Liuyun holding a bow and knew that the two companions who had been shot dead were his doing.

"Be careful, his arrows don't fly straight!"

One assassin also noticed the strangeness of Ye Liuyun's arrows.

But the three of them still moved to surround Ye Liuyun.

"Kid, you can't run away!"

A Martial Cultivator, seeing the three surround Ye Liuyun, called out, preparing to act against him.

But he didn't watch his step and triggered a small mechanism.

From the thickets on both sides, countless arrows shot out.

Because he was too close and there were too many arrows, he could block one side but not the other, and he was immediately turned into a porcupine.

This mechanism was the kind of treasure that You Ming had previously given Ye Liuyun, capable of simultaneously firing a large number of arrows.

Another one was a copy made by Tong Xin in the course of her research.

However, Tong Xin had already remodeled it into an energy cannon powered by Divine Crystals, so this kind of treasure that used actual arrows was now useless, and she gave it to Ye Liuyun to play with.

The remaining two assassins also charged at Ye Liuyun together.

Ye Liuyun, however, remained calm, meeting them with one person and one sword, his overbearing sword intent forcing the two to retreat straight back.

One of them then triggered a small Formation and became trapped inside it, while the other rushed into their ambush circle.

Several people around Ye Liuyun immediately prepared to act.

"Don't move, leave it to me!"

Ye Liuyun immediately spoke up to stop them, grabbing the Demon Slaying Sword and engaging that assassin in combat.

While fighting, he told the others, "There are no enemies around anymore; go clean up the battlefield! I'll take care of this one!"

Thus, You Ming led Kuang Sha and the others to go clean up the battlefield.

The Martial Cultivator trapped in the Formation was captured by them.

Meanwhile, Ye Liuyun and that assassin were fighting to a stalemate.

Under the pressure of Ye Liuyun's overbearing sword intent and Heaven and Earth Power, that assassin could hardly use any Illusion Hand.

His strength lay in his unorthodox techniques, not in head-on, forceful attacks.

Yet within the sword net woven by Ye Liuyun's sword intent, he found no chance to counterattack.

Each time he resisted Ye Liuyun's sword intent, his True Essence consumption was huge.

When You Ming and the others returned, that assassin directly surrendered.

They were in training, so they generally avoided killing and would not strike to kill the opponent.

Especially after the opponent had been captured or had surrendered voluntarily.

Therefore, Ye Liuyun and the others also released him and the other captured assassin.

Both of them also directly withdrew from the group confrontation venue.

Haha, you little brat, you took out so many people in one go! Tell us, how did you do it!

Only then did Kuang Sha and his group start chatting with Ye Liuyun.

Wait for me a moment, I'll go dismantle the traps first!

Ye Liuyun ran over again to dismantle all the traps he had set earlier, so that no one would accidentally wander in later.

Did you also make a copy of the treasure I gave you earlier?

You Ming saw Ye Liuyun go and collect two arrow cases back, and couldn't help but become curious.

Yeah!

Ye Liuyun also had no choice but to admit.

Oh my, you already knew each other before!

And you even exchanged love tokens?

Kuang Sha, meanwhile, started teasing them.

What! I exchanged some resources with him using that treasure!

You Ming hurriedly explained.

At this point, Ye Liuyun not only dismantled the traps, but also collected those corpses.

Why are you collecting corpses?

He asked, puzzled.

I have some ferocious beasts, which happen to be perfect for feeding them.

Anyway, they're dead anyway, so we shouldn't waste them!

Ye Liuyun explained.

You really know how to save!

Yi Dao and Kuang Sha also joined in mocking them.

These assassins are all wealthy, so they wouldn't even care about this bit of food for ferocious beasts.

They don't know how many mouths Ye Liuyun has to feed, so they can't understand his frugality.

So Ye Liuyun merely clasped his hands toward them, asking them to help pick up more if they get the chance in the future.

The others also agreed.

Then Ye Liuyun started leading everyone in barbecuing meat, while eating and explaining to them how he had just fought.

After he finished speaking, everyone also came to acknowledge Ye Liuyun's identity in their hearts.

Because Ye Liuyun, whether in terms of strategy, special abilities, or strength, absolutely qualifies to be their companion.

Ye Liuyun just fought a Celestial Being First Tier assassin across levels, and they all witnessed it with their own eyes.

So Tian Yan and Yi Dao secretly nodded at You Ming, indicating that Ye Liuyun was qualified.

The essence of this group confrontation training is also to let them find suitable partners.

Moreover, Ye Liuyun's personality, at least as seen so far, has no issues.

They all praised Ye Liuyun's barbecue skills without end, saying that with him around, they could feast to their heart's content in the future.

Even You Ming spoke highly of Ye Liuyun's barbecue.

Even You Ming praised Ye Liuyun's grilled meat highly.
