Chapter 2482: Rescuing Through a Curve

~7 min read 1,283 words

Xiao Muan originally thought of letting Ye Liuyun go to fight Black Kill desperately, using the chance to weaken Black Kill's power, and ideally eliminate Xiao Qiwu, so he could find a way to seize Black Kill's authority.

Even if he can't seize Black Kill's authority, he will still win the support of several Black Kill Elders.

But unexpectedly, Ye Liuyun neither went to rescue You Ming nor clashed with Xiao Qiwu; instead, they cooperated.

Xiao Qiwu also understood the dire situation and ultimately agreed with Ye Liuyun.

Moreover, the five strongmen he sent to Ye Liuyun were all people who might betray him or whom he doubted.

Even if these people, once borrowed by Ye Liuyun, never returned, the impact on him would be minimal.

As for You Ming, he knows very well that Ye Liuyun is deliberately using an excuse to take people.

But You Ming is merely a pawn in his mind.

For the greater picture, he also discarded it, treating it as a favor to Ye Liuyun and made peace with him.

And Ye Liuyun will not kill You Ming; once things settle, he can still use You Ming again.

As long as he can win Ye Liuyun's trust, there will be plenty of chances to strike at Ye Liuyun later.

After Xiao Qiwu made his decision, he contacted Ye Liuyun again and agreed to Ye Liuyun's request.

Ye Liuyun also had him send the people one by one to the locations he specified, then he directly planted a Slave Seal on them.

He said these people were borrowed, but never intended to return them.

After Soul Searching, he discovered that among the five, two were Elders of Black Kill.

Moreover, both Elders were secretly in contact with Xiao Muan.

"It seems Xiao Qiwu was also mentally prepared, sending all these potentially treacherous people!"

Ye Liuyun thought to himself.

He even uncovered that Black Kill had arranged people to train You Ming to tempt Ye Liuyun.

"No wonder they think I would go rescue You Ming.

Fortunately You Ming hasn't betrayed me!"

But since You Ming didn't bring it up, he doesn't feel right to mention it either, so he pretends not to know.

You Ming was the last one to report to her.

Seeing You Ming safe, he felt relieved; whatever the case, his goal of rescuing through a curve was achieved.

"Where are you from?"

Ye Liuyun asked You Ming.

"I'm carrying out a mission, not finished yet, when I was urgently called here.

Did you make peace with Black Kill?

How could they send me to help you?"

You Ming also harbored many doubts.

Ye Liuyun didn't answer her question, but asked, "Did you just come out of a Secret Realm in White Bear Snow Mountain?"

"How did you know?"

You Ming asked with some surprise.

Ye Liuyun then relayed to her the information Xiao Muan gave him about his request to Xiao Qiwu for people.

After listening, You Ming became relatively calm.

"They want to use me as bait, luring you into a Secret Realm to control you."

"If this happens again, you don't need to look after me; otherwise they'd keep exploiting me endlessly."

Ye Liuyun nodded, "But I can't just stand by and watch someone die!"

"It's okay; this is the fate of us royal offspring.

Which one isn't a tool of the family!"

You Ming said softly.

"You can follow me from now on; don't go back to Black Kill!"

Ye Liuyun urged her, "My Space World is vast, with many people inside!"

"Thank you for your kindness! But I still don't want to leave the holy land.

Don't worry, as long as you don't go rescue me, I won't have any big trouble!"

"Stop worrying about that for now, hurry and deal with the Foreign Tribe; the great enemy is at hand, we can discuss my matters later!"

You Ming forced a smile, reassuring Ye Liuyun.

"Alright then!"

Ye Liuyun stopped insisting, released a Hawk and sped toward Satellite Island with her.

Along the way, You Ming said little, pondering what to do next.

The family treated her like this, so she must have thoughts; she just didn't want Ye Liuyun to see them or worry.

When they neared Satellite Island, Ye Liuyun finally discussed his plan with You Ming.

"This time I intend to infiltrate the Foreign Tribe's warship and seize one of their warships."

"What would we do with a seized warship?"

You Ming asked, surprised.

"Know yourself and know the enemy; we can also learn about their warship forging techniques! Besides, I don't want to always wait for them to attack—we can strike them too!"

"Not just warships, I also plan to capture a few Foreign Tribe Leaders for Soul Search, gather more information, and locate their stronghold!"

Ye Liuyun said.

"They say the relevant data has been erased from their Sea of Consciousness."

You Ming said.

Ye Liuyun also said: "Catch a few more to try, maybe we can piece together some information.

Especially those gold and silver scaled foreign tribe members; they are nobles among the foreign tribe, possibly knowing more information."

"Then you won't send troops this time?"

You Ming asked again.

Ye Liuyun told her: "The Holy Land Dynasty will send troops.

Satellite Island is too small; even if I send troops, I can't break through, so our main goal this time is to eliminate some of the foreign tribe's strong warriors and destroy their main force.

This is also the purpose of borrowing people from Xiao Qiwu."

"Just borrow more of them! Uncle Wang has at least thirty or fifty of such strong warriors!"

You Ming also revealed some of their family's secrets to Ye Liuyun for the first time.

"That's really not few! But these few are already enough.

"We need to sneak into the foreign tribe's warship, not to fight them head-on; more would be useless."

Ye Liuyun, however, was quite content.

However, Xiao Qiwu's strength also made Ye Liuyun look at him with new eyes.

He also didn't expect that Xiao Qiwu still had so many strong warriors.

Based on this reasoning, the Holy Land Dynasty must at least be roughly this strong.

Since they have so many powerful martial cultivators, they also have the strength to fight those foreign tribes.

Ye Liuyun therefore wasn't too worried that they couldn't stop the foreign tribe.

But then, You Ming also told Ye Liuyun a lot of information about Xiao Qiwu and Black Kill.

These are things she never mentioned before.

But today she told Ye Liuyun a lot.

Ye Liuyun was also curious: "What's wrong with you today, telling me all this?"

You Ming just smiled: "Thanks for still knowing to save my life!"

Haha, I'm just doing it incidentally, don't worry about it!

Ye Liuyun thought she was joking and didn't pay much attention.

But You Ming glanced at Ye Liuyun, her eye sockets somewhat red.

But she immediately changed the topic, continuing to tell Ye Liuyun about some grudges between Xiao Qiwu and Xiao Qitian, as well as the history of these two royal families.

Ye Liuyun just listened to it as entertainment.

He wasn't interested in this brotherly feud, nor did he want to get involved in their conflict.

Who was right or wrong, he didn't care at all.

Before arriving at Satellite Island, Ye Liuyun stored You Ming in the Space World, put away the Hawk, donned the Invisibility Cloak, and entered Satellite Island.

Satellite Island has already doubled in size, the garrison on the island now exceeds 1.5 million, and the Teleportation Array is very busy, with soldiers and equipment being transmitted from time to time.
