Chapter 2453: Luring the Snake Out of Its Hole
Ye Liuyun had just entered the chamber of commerce when he met two people buying medicinal herbs, an old man with a young girl.
"Master, how much of this medicinal herb do we need to buy?"
That female disciple was asking her master.
Ye Liuyun immediately sensed that their sword intent was obviously much stronger than others'.
So he couldn't help paying attention, glancing at them twice more.
Unexpectedly, the female disciple scolded Ye Liuyun: "What are you looking at?"
"Look again and I'll gouge out your eyes!"
Ye Liuyun was also stunned by the rebuke.
He wasn't the kind of lecher who stares at women.
He had only given a normal two glances, yet they wanted to gouge his eyes—he wasn't used to this.
"If you're afraid of being seen, don't go out!"
He retorted offhandedly.
But Ye Liuyun's offhand retort scared the steward who was selling goods so much his face changed color.
He hurried over, pushing Ye Liuyun outward: "You're from out of town, right?"
"If you don't know better, don't talk nonsense—the alchemist of Divine Sword Mountain Villa isn't someone you can provoke!"
The steward said this while repeatedly giving Ye Liuyun looks, urging him to leave quickly.
"You want to court death, don't you?"
At that moment, the girl's master also shouted angrily at Ye Liuyun.
"Master Pei, calm down—he's just an outsider youth; why bother arguing with him?"
The steward then hurried over to mediate with the alchemist.
"Bullying with power! He's just an alchemist of Divine Sword Mountain Villa! Believe it or not, I'll destroy your Divine Sword Mountain Villa!"
Seeing this situation, Ye Liuyun immediately had a plan and at once confronted them.
The steward and the nearby shop assistants were so shocked their mouths couldn't close.
They had never before seen anyone dare to speak to Divine Sword Mountain Villa people like that.
Upon hearing Ye Liuyun's words, the girl snorted coldly: "You want to destroy my Divine Sword Mountain Villa?
"Fine, I want to see how you'd do it! If you can't destroy it, you're not leaving!"
"Heh, whether you can return to Divine Sword Mountain Villa today is uncertain! You might not even get to see the day it falls!"
Ye Liuyun pressed the attack even more, refusing to yield an inch.
At this point the steward also reacted, pleading with a choking voice to the alchemist and his female disciple: "Master Pei, the chamber of commerce's rules forbid fighting here! Please calm down, let's go to a private room for tea."
Seeing Ye Liuyun speak so arrogantly, he didn't bother checking whether Ye Liuyun really had any backing—he simply decided not to intervene further.
As long as they don't fight inside the chamber of commerce, that's fine.
Master Pei snorted twice: "No need, I'm giving your chamber of commerce face.
"A Qian, let's go!"
Afterwards he glanced at Ye Liuyun again and taunted: "Divine Sword Mountain Villa awaits you anytime!"
Then he flicked his sleeve and left the chamber of commerce directly.
"You're dead!"
As the girl named A Qian walked past Ye Liuyun, she also threatened him hatefully.
Ye Liuyun merely curled his lips, completely unfazed.
The steward bowed and scraped as he saw the master and disciple out.
Turning around, he saw Ye Liuyun actually picking up the medicinal herbs that A Qian had been looking at, and hurried over.
He now didn't dare offend Ye Liuyun, merely saying politely: "Sir, Divine Sword Mountain Villa isn't easy to provoke.
Even members of the royal family wouldn't dare not give them face.
You've really stirred up big trouble this time!"
Ye Liuyun couldn't be bothered with him, instead using his divine sense to probe where the master and disciple had gone.
"Master, are we just leaving like this?
Wouldn't that damage the prestige of our Divine Sword Mountain Villa?
A Qian asked Master Pei.
Master Pei shook his head and laughed: "Of course we can't just leave like that.
"There aren't many in the Holy Land Dynasty who dare say they'll destroy our Divine Sword Mountain Villa! Even if he's a royal offspring, we'll kill him if we want!
I just don't want to cause trouble for the chamber of commerce, since we'll still need to do business with them later.
If they really cut off our supplies, it'll be a hassle later.
We'll wait for him to come out and then act—this way it won't involve the chamber of commerce!"
So they immediately stopped and waited for Ye Liuyun to come out.
Seeing this, Ye Liuyun felt pleased inside.
He had been worrying about how to get into Divine Sword Mountain Villa, preparing to lure the snake out of its hole.
Now that an opportunity has come knocking, he'll definitely use it to lure the people of Divine Sword Mountain Villa out.
"I'm not telling you! They're waiting for me outside!"
Ye Liuyun said a sentence to the steward, put down the herbs, and walked straight out of the chamber of commerce.
"..." The chamber of commerce steward also didn't dare make a sound.
He also didn't know how Ye Liuyun's outcome would turn out.
As long as you don't fight inside their chamber of commerce, it's none of his business!
Seeing Ye Liuyun come out, A Qian voluntarily asked Alchemist Pei: "Master, I'll go kill that arrogant guy!"
"Good! Don't be careless, his cultivation level is higher than yours!"
Alchemist Pei also reminded her.
"Master, don't worry! What's the use of a high cultivation level? I've always been able to challenge above my rank!"
A Qian said confidently.
After Ye Liuyun walked out of the chamber of commerce's main gate, he walked straight toward them, and with a flick of his hand the Demon Slaying Sword appeared in his hand.
"I've long heard that the sword intent of Divine Sword Mountain Villa declines generation after generation; I don't know if it's true or not."
He said to A Qian indifferently, deliberately provoking her to act.
"Bold madman! How dare you slander my Divine Sword Mountain Villa! Watch me not cut off your head and kick it like a ball!"
Ye Liuyun's contemptuous words and expression indeed stimulated A Qian.
If she cannot kill Ye Liuyun today, then Divine Sword Mountain Villa's reputation will be completely ruined by her.
She immediately strode toward Ye Liuyun, and a green long sword suddenly appeared in her hand.
The crowd on the street immediately scattered.
Ye Liuyun actually dared to openly insult Divine Sword Mountain Villa here; in their view he is surely dead!
"Still like that! But I think it's just for show, useless!"
Ye Liuyun again mocked A Qian.
"Hmph, even with death imminent you still wag your tongue!"
A Qian was also angered by Ye Liuyun; her green sword flicked, and instantly a cold sword intent stabbed toward Ye Liuyun.
"Too slow!"
Ye Liuyun contemptuously waved his blade, arriving first despite striking later.
A black light flashed, annihilating the green light A Qian thrust out, and continued straight for her neck.
A Qian's sword intent only equals the Minor Achievement stage of his blade intent; such sword intent is nowhere near enough for Ye Liuyun.
However, for ordinary people, such sword intent is already extremely rare.
"You dare!"
Upon seeing Ye Liuyun draw his blade, Alchemist Pei knew it would be bad, shouted loudly, and had a long sword in hand—but it was already too late.
A Qian's head had already flown into the air.
She only felt a wave of dizziness and vertigo, even seeing her master's long sword suddenly appear in his hand.
She wanted to speak, but could not make a sound.
Immediately after, her vision rapidly dropped, and the light in her eyes gradually faded.
"I've said before, you have no chance to witness the day Divine Sword Mountain Villa falls!"
Ye Liuyun said indifferently, holding his blade and continuing to walk steadily toward Alchemist Pei.
"I've already killed the person, what are you going to do about it?"
"Old bastard!"
Ye Liuyun shows no mercy in his words.
