Chapter 2467: Hit Until It Hurts
After hiding for a few days, Ye Liuyun learned from members such as Mo Sha and You Ming who stayed in Black Kill that Black Kill was not hunting him.
"Looks like Xiao Qiwu still doesn't want to completely turn against me!"
He also thinks that now there's no need to deal with Black Kill.
However, the Holy Land Dynasty is at this moment issuing worldwide warrants for Ye Liuyun.
And they not only issue a warrant for Ye Liuyun, but also begin exterminating Black Killing Secret Realms across the lands, evidently to pressure Black Kill into handing over Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun uses a Transmission Talisman to contact the Holy Land Dynasty.
Although he is not afraid of the warrant, it greatly affects his image and is detrimental to any future alliance with the Holy Land.
Yet the Holy Land Dynasty arrogantly demands Ye Liuyun surrender immediately, also requiring him to hand over his treasures, equipment, and army.
"Are you all too arrogant?"
"To make me surrender, do you have that strength?"
Ye Liuyun, furious to the point of boiling, questions them:
"Even hundreds of thousands of Foreign Tribe aren't our opponents; do you think with that little equipment you can compete with us?"
"And you still want to ally with us? Dream on!"
The Holy Land Dynasty's reply is also resolute, believing its strength is great and it does not need Ye Liuyun's cooperation.
Ye Liuyun also feels a chill in his heart from both Black Kill's and the Holy Land Dynasty's actions.
"It seems these self‑righteous guys, unless we hurt them, probably won't take us seriously! Since they're courting death, we needn't be courteous; let's kill them mercilessly!"
Thinking this, Ye Liuyun orders Yu Xiaofeng to notify the entire army to prepare for war, ready to go out and exterminate some Holy Land Dynasty fleets or armies to curb them.
For this, he also traveled to various places to learn about the Holy Land Dynasty's army deployments.
Currently on Satellite Island, the Holy Land Dynasty still stations a million‑strong army.
Around the Holy Land Planet there are nearly two million troops, scattered to guard the surrounding Xingkong.
"Xiaofeng, you lead the Sharp Blade Corps, Demon Beast Legion, and a half‑million army to assault Satellite Island.
Yuan Hao, Man Feng, Han Mutong, Sui Fenghu, you need not commit your entire forces; just bring all Hawk Battleships to intercept the Holy Land Dynasty's fleet in the Xingkong, preventing their reinforcements.
I will take the Martial Cultivators and Formation Masters to destroy the Teleportation Array.
After Ye Liuyun finalizes the strategy, he begins to act.
He first, together with Qiong Qi, stealthily approaches the Teleportation Array on Satellite Island, devises a method to destroy it, then leads Martial Cultivators, over a hundred war wagons, and thousands of soldiers bearing Energy Cannons to smash the array outright.
When the defending forces turn back, Ye Liuyun has already teleported away via the Black Tower.
Then he releases his army, letting Yu Xiaofeng launch the attack.
Yuan Hao, Man Feng and others' Hawks are also released together, first striking the garrison on Satellite Island, wiping out most of their Flying Swallows, then they rush into the Xingkong.
Afterwards, Ye Liuyun again infiltrates the defending side's Martial Cultivators, preparing to ambush the strong Martial Cultivators coming to reinforce them.
During this time, Martial Cultivators responsible for repairing formations are either captured or slain by Ye Liuyun, preventing the Teleportation Array from being restored, and the Holy Land Dynasty cannot send strongmen or troops to reinforce.
Ye Liuyun's sudden massive offensive shocks both the Holy Land Dynasty and Black Kill.
At the start of the battle, the Flying Swallows on Satellite Island are almost completely wiped out; then Yu Xiaofeng initiates a second wave, using Hawks, war wagons, Puppet Beast, and Energy Cannons in a bombardment, and after that, the Demon Beast Legion kills the remaining troops.
The other half‑million troops are mainly used to encircle and defend the two flanks, rarely seeing combat.
During this, Tong Xin and Qiong Qi also have External Armor Warriors conduct extensive combat trials, continuously improving the External Armor.
Yet the soldiers operating the External Armor are merely Divine Crystal Qichong Martial Cultivators, yet they can unleash Celestial Being Second Tier attack power.
If Divine Crystal Ninth Layer or Celestial Being First Tier Martial Cultivators wear this External Armor, fighting Celestial Being Third Tier enemies would be no problem.
Once this External Armor is widely adopted, Ye Liuyun will no longer lack troops and can easily forge a highly combat‑effective army.
The battles in the Xingkong are total victories.
Against the formidable Hawks, Flying Swallows are no match at all.
The Holy Land Dynasty's massive warships become live targets for Hawk attacks; countless Holy Land soldiers are crushed to death by spatial pressure as their warships are blown apart.
Within a few days of the war's start, the Holy Land Dynasty has already lost five fleets of one hundred thousand each in the Xingkong.
And because of the Hawks' blockade, neither the Holy Land Dynasty nor Black Kill dare to send strongmen to capture Ye Liuyun.
Because facing the Hawks, even strongmen cannot break through their defensive circles.
If they send Flying Boats, they will all meet death.
Therefore, Black Kill's Xiao Qiwu can only contact Ye Liuyun, urging him not to act rashly.
"After all, these soldiers will eventually have to resist the Foreign Tribe; by killing them now, aren't you helping the Foreign Tribe!"
"So what?"
"Since they don't want an alliance, why should I consider them?"
"Anyway the Holy Land has nothing to do with me; if they're destroyed, they're destroyed!"
This time Ye Liuyun no longer gives Black Kill any face; Xiao Qiwu also knows Ye Liuyun is enraged, and that this is largely due to his own treatment of Ye Liuyun, so he dares not say more, only urging Black Kill to back down.
The Holy Land Dynasty, of course, does not wish to simply submit to Ye Liuyun; at first they exchange harsh words, demanding a full‑scale war with Ye Liuyun.
"Even if your Hawks are strong, you can't stand against our numbers!"
Moreover, they truly have gathered three million troops on the Holy Land, threatening to jointly attack Ye Liuyun.
They also prepared massive warships and Flying Swallows, intending to break the Hawks' blockade by sheer numbers.
Ye Liuyun is unfazed; he simply replies, "Always at your service!"
He knows in his heart that the Holy Land Dynasty cannot wage a large‑scale war against him.
That three‑million army could indeed breach Ye Liuyun's defenses, but in the end there would be few left.
Without these troops, what will they have to resist the Foreign Tribe in the future?
Meanwhile, over at Yu Xiaofeng's side, more than 400,000 troops on Satellite Island have been exterminated, and 100,000 troops captured.
These troops' equipment is no match, their combat power cannot surpass the Demon Beast Legion; the Holy Land Dynasty's reinforcements cannot get through, and even those attempting to flee aboard warships are bombarded dead by the external Hawks.
So the soldiers here had very low morale, they would collapse at the slightest touch, surrender at the first blow, the front lines kept retreating, and soon the base was seized by Yu Xiaofeng, who drove them all out.
While seizing the base, they also captured nearly 200,000 soldiers; the Holy Land Dynasty's great army suffered a complete rout and fled in all directions.
Next, Yu Xiaofeng dispatched another 500,000 troops and began capturing prisoners everywhere.
After Ye Liuyun and Yu Xiaofeng took Satellite Island, they sent out several Hawk squadrons to attack the Holy Land Dynasty's assembled forces, carrying out irregular bombardments every day to strike at the enemy's morale.
