Chapter 2462: Greedy and Insatiable

After clearing out the onlooking Martial Cultivators, Zhong Feng drew the long sword from his back and challenged Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun, inside the courtyard, also brandished the Demon Slaying Sword.

"If you want to fight, come in! With so many of you, I can't go out! If you have the skill, break through this Side Courtyard!"

Before acting, Zhong Feng reiterated to Ye Liuyun: "We are all here to avenge our junior brothers.

Whatever you discussed with the Elders doesn't concern us!"

Hearing that, Ye Liuyun immediately laughed: "Understood, your Elders have already prepared to agree to my proposal.

But you all are unwilling to accept it and insist on revenge.

Right?

They're just a group of dying men, why bother fretting for the living?

Act quickly, let me see what your Divine Sword Villa is truly capable of!

"Arrogant!"

"We go up, and slay him together!"

The disciples who followed Zhong Feng surged forward as one.

"Hold on, let me fight him alone! Then you can act afterward!"

Zhong Feng immediately shouted them to stop.

He wanted both to avenge his junior brothers himself and to see for himself how strong Ye Liuyun truly is.

"Fine, come in!"

Ye Liuyun also wanted to see how strong Zhong Feng's sword intent truly was.

Zhong Feng immediately leapt, jumped into the Side Courtyard, and before he even landed, swung his massive iron sword from the air, slashing at Ye Liuyun mid‑air.

This sword intent differed entirely from others' sharp sword intent; it was a simple, heavy pressure that felt unstoppable.

Ye Liuyun felt this sword intent was somewhat similar to his own blade intent.

Only that his sword intent centered on the notion of weight, imparting a sense of forceful oppression.

Yet Ye Liuyun's domineering blade intent focused more on psychological suppression.

Zhong Feng's sword intent had already reached Great Achievement.

This made him a little uneasy.

If the disciples are like this, the master must be far stronger than them.

In other words, if the Sword God himself were present, his blade intent would certainly be unmatched.

However, facing the current Zhong Feng, he still admired his courage and decided to unleash his own blade intent fully, to let him die with his eyes closed.

So his blade intent erupted completely, and both Heaven and Earth Power and Mysterious Origin merged into this single strike, meeting Zhong Feng's sword as it sliced outward.

This blade and sword, both parties gave their all.

Ye Liuyun's realm was slightly lower, but the quality and quantity of his True Essence were both high.

Adding his Heaven and Earth Power, he could match Zhong Feng in other forces.

In the end, the two contested with blade intent versus sword intent.

Ye Liuyun's full‑force eruption also let Zhong Feng feel Ye Liuyun's blade intent.

"His blade intent is actually stronger than my sword intent!"

He immediately realized that this revenge could no longer be avenged.

The opponent's strength truly surpassed his.

Moreover, Ye Liuyun's domineering aura had completely suppressed his fighting will; at this moment he had no other thoughts, knowing that continuing would only lead to certain defeat.

He now only thought of going to accompany his two junior brothers.

"Boom, boom, boom…"

The full forces of blade and sword collided in the air, erupting with successive booming sounds.

The blade light gradually gained the upper hand, pressing toward Zhong Feng.

Ye Liuyun's strike did not incorporate Spatial Power, so those outside could see clearly as his blade sliced directly at Zhong Feng.

And Zhong Feng, merely holding his sword without resistance, was split in two by Ye Liuyun's blade.

"Senior Brother!"

The waiting disciples outside roared, eyes blood‑red, and surged into the Side Courtyard.

"Your spirit is commendable, but unfortunately I cannot keep you!"

Ye Liuyun sighed, used a Formation to separate them, then fought them with blade intent, as a sign of respect.

These people were no simple foes; Ye Liuyun had already exhausted the Mysterious Origin within the Storage Yuan Stone before finally wiping them out completely.

He himself was also exhausted to the point of gasping.

He immediately sent a clone to replace him, while he returned to the Xuan Kong Shi to cultivate.

The Mysterious Origin inside the Storage Yuan Stone is his life‑saving resource; he must quickly cultivate it back.

Otherwise, if another great battle occurs, he would be in danger.

Even if the Storage Yuan Stone absorbs faster, it still takes time.

And in a great battle, any delay of even a moment could cost a life.

The Elders of the Divine Sword Villa waited a day, found none of the dispatched disciples could be contacted, and thus knew they were all annihilated.

So they sent another Elder to negotiate with Ye Liuyun.

In this negotiation, they were ready to directly accept Ye Liuyun's terms and let him set the price.

When that Elder arrived, he immediately stated his purpose.

The clone naturally began the lion's big opening.

He already knew from the captured prisoners how wealthy Divine Sword Mountain Villa was.

So as soon as he spoke, he almost demanded half of Divine Sword Mountain Villa's resources.

That Elder naturally tried to bargain with him: "You're simply asking for a lion's big mouth..."

However, Ye Liuyun didn't let him finish, and directly used the Golden Pupil's Technique to slay that Elder outright.

"Yeah! Knowing I'm asking for a lion's big mouth, you still want to negotiate with me?"

He smiled, took that Elder's Storage Ring, and threw the corpse to the Magic Vine.

The people of Divine Sword Mountain Villa were all wealthy as well; just from them, Ye Liuyun had already obtained a large amount of resources.

"There are still three Elders; if next time they come to deliver resources and I kill another, they should also let the Sword God take action!"

Ye Liuyun was speculating in his heart.

"Too excessive!"

The three remaining Elders of Divine Sword Mountain Villa were also furious beyond control.

Of their five Elders, Ye Liuyun had actually killed two.

"He's got us figured out, not even giving us a chance to bargain!"

One Elder said helplessly.

"Forget it, give it to him.

If we let him keep causing trouble, we'll really have to go apologize to the Villa Lord!"

Another Elder said.

In the end, the three agreed to send another Elder to directly deliver resources to Ye Liuyun.

Unexpectedly, after Ye Liuyun received the resources, he told that Elder that the resources he delivered were at the previous price, but now the price has risen.

"You're insatiably greedy!"

That Elder again began to argue with Ye Liuyun.

Likewise, he was again directly slain by Ye Liuyun using the Golden Pupil's Technique.

The two remaining Elders of Divine Sword Mountain Villa waited half a day but saw no one return.

"Unbelievable! He killed another person!"

"Now he's trying to force us to ask the Villa Lord to come out of seclusion!"

Finally, the two Elders consulted and felt Ye Liuyun was insatiably greedy; they could no longer tolerate it.

Thus the two Elders could only kneel outside the cave where the Sword God was in seclusion, begging the Sword God to come out.

"What's wrong?"

From the cave came the Sword God's markedly impatient figure.

He was in meditation; this sudden disturbance indeed affected his state of mind.

After hearing them out, a sword light shot directly from the cave and pierced the Elder who had initially promised to take the blame.

"You bunch of trash! You've lost all face for Divine Sword Mountain Villa!"

The Sword God in the cave also roared.
