Chapter 2470: Lost Path, Returning

Ye Liuyun's soldiers' strength, equipment, and resources, after more than a year of preparation, made him even more confident in resisting the Foreign Tribe.

The Holy Land Dynasty hasn't been idle during this period either.

They also set up a large number of Formations on Satellite Island.

Fei Yan and their team also made improvements.

However, because their refining material supplies are limited, no matter how much they improve, they haven't produced any Warships with the defensive power of the Hawk.

The attack power and speed have indeed improved somewhat, but compared with the Hawk they are still not impressive.

As for large Warships, they haven't made any changes at all.

Yet Ye Liuyun's side even modified the large Warships, and even equipped them with some Xiao dao Primordial Power as energy, boosting their attack, defense, and speed.

At this time, Black Kill, Mo Shaowen and others sent word that a new Foreign Tribe offensive is about to begin.

So he returned to the Holy Land again and rushed to Satellite Island.

The identification cards he had previously processed and Black Kill's insignia cards have all been completely destroyed by Ye Liuyun.

The Transmission Talismans left for the royal family, Black Kill, and You Ming were all given by him; they lack any location-tracking function, so he isn't worried about being discovered.

What surprised him was that shortly after his return, he received a Transmission Voice from You Ming.

Previously, because Ye Liuyun was not in the Holy Land, they couldn't send Transmission Voices out.

However, You Ming contacts Ye Liuyun every day to confirm his whereabouts.

And now You Ming actually transmitted the information, so she immediately knew that Ye Liuyun had returned.

During these six months, Black Kill specifically trained her, finding several special mentors to teach her how to confuse Ye Liuyun.

They even refined it down to correcting her eye expression and tone when speaking.

After Black Kill repeatedly fed her the message that Ye Liuyun must be eliminated, she still harbored lingering feelings for him, yet she fully cooperated with Black Kill's plan and promptly reported to Xiao Qiwu.

"Alright, follow the plan, lure him into the headquarters, and your mission will be considered complete!"

Xiao Qiwu waited a year and finally got Ye Liuyun back, naturally feeling very excited.

You Ming then, according to what she had learned, pleaded for help from Ye Liuyun.

She said she was no longer as dead under Black Kill's watch and hoped Ye Liuyun could rescue her.

If Ye Liuyun hadn't received Black Kill's message before, he would actually have believed her.

But he didn't make it explicit, only saying his insignia cards were destroyed, he couldn't return to Black Kill, nor could he rescue her, and told her to find Kuang Sha, Tian Yan, and Yi Dao.

Ye Liuyun was deliberately hinting at her; perhaps You Ming would look up information on those three, learn they were all killed, and then have a sudden realization.

You Ming also thought of having Kuang Sha and others help contact Ye Liuyun, and after proposing it to Xiao Qiwu, she was rejected.

She immediately grew suspicious, tried to contact the three, but found she couldn't reach any of them.

So she then questioned Xiao Qiwu, who finally admitted that he had killed the three of them.

"Why did you kill those three?

What relation do you have with them?"

You Ming felt deep remorse, blaming herself for harming them.

At the same time, she again doubted Xiao Qiwu's motives.

Xiao Qiwu, however, thought such a trivial matter didn't need explanation.

He was only worried that You Ming might become soft-hearted toward Ye Liuyun, so he immediately reminded her: "I only killed three people."

"Ye Liuyun has killed hundreds of thousands! When dealing with this demon, you must never be soft-hearted!"

You Ming, angry, blurted out, "He kills openly and honorably, unlike you, who are so despicable!"

And after saying that, she suddenly realized that Xiao Qiwu's behavior might truly be impure.

Xiao Qiwu, hearing this, shouted angrily, "You scoundrel! Is this how you speak to elders?"

"Your wings are now stiff, and your elbows are about to bend outward?"

"We are a killer organization; have you never killed anyone?"

"The information on those three wasn't also provided by you…"

You Ming, watching Xiao Qiwu berate her, felt no fear; instead, she suddenly became certain that Xiao Qiwu was using her.

"I was really foolish, how could I have trusted them! Members of the royal family would never speak of feelings!"

She thought this to herself.

Xiao Qiwu saw her zoning out and stopped scolding her.

So now, to locate Ye Liuyun, You Ming's help is still needed; otherwise, he alone cannot lure Ye Liuyun into the trap.

"Forget it, go back and figure out how to contact Ye Liuyun!"

You Ming turned and left the Grand Hall, then after returning she contacted Ye Liuyun, wept bitterly, and said she had caused the deaths of Kuang Sha and the others.

Ye Liuyun felt quite gratified; at least You Ming could recognize her mistake, which counted as a return from the lost path.

He also explained his view on this matter to You Ming.

"Xiao Qiwu wants to seize my resources, wipe out the royal family, proclaim himself king, and then confront the Foreign Tribe."

"From his perspective, that isn't wrong."

"However, he overlooks the path of cooperation."

"Perhaps after his failed attempts he'll change his mind! But this also shows that both Black Kill and the royal family have ignored the Foreign Tribe's power, not treating them as the main enemy."

"This isn't something I can persuade them of through my own effort alone."

"They need to truly witness the threat of the Foreign Tribe themselves."

"Anyway, I have proposed an alliance and tried using force as a threat."

"Now we can only wait, waiting for them to change their hearts."

"What if they remain obstinate?"

You Ming asked Ye Liuyun.

"Many people are like that; if they don't suffer some losses, they cannot realize their own mistakes."

"However, for me it doesn't matter; I'm not now forced to cooperate with them!"

Ye Liuyun said.

"I heard that the Holy Land Dynasty has the idea of forming an alliance with you; I don't know if it's true!"

You Ming told Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun laughed and said: "Black Kill also said they'd ally with me! Look at their attitude, does it look like they want to ally?"

You Ming also felt Ye Liuyun's words made sense, sighed: "Alas, it's said that the Foreign Tribe's new round of attack is about to start again! Their main force will arrive in a few months, and I don't know if they can withstand those Foreign Tribe."

If they can't withstand it, the ones who will suffer are all the people.

Ye Liuyun also told You Ming: "They themselves can't unite to resist the enemy; how could they possibly win?"

"If it's just a small group of Foreign Tribe, it's still okay."

"If the Foreign Tribe this time has strengthened their attack strength, I'm not very optimistic!"

You Ming, upon hearing that, also worriedly asked: "If the Foreign Tribe succeeds, they will attack the Holy Land's homeland."

"At that time, will you lend a hand to help?"

"At that time, let's see their attitude! If they don't agree to ally, how can I join the war?"

"Not only do I have to contribute resources and manpower to fight the Foreign Tribe, but I also have to guard against them?"

"Do you think I'm that stupid?"

I've already told Xiao Qiwu and the royal family that what I do depends entirely on their decision.

"The Foreign Tribe's current invasion is not our world, but theirs."
