Chapter 2493: The Greatest Winner

The Warship suddenly vanished, instantly exposing the assassins hidden behind it; the guards immediately rushed forward and killed those assassins.

Moreover, the guards acted with great speed, leaving the assassins greatly surprised.

The assassin who had just attacked Ye Liuyun was severely wounded by the intercepting guard.

The assassins concealed around the area also emerged at this moment, all charging at Ye Liuyun; only Mo Sha and another Black Kill Elder held back.

That Elder was responsible for monitoring the battle results and reporting to Xiao Muan.

Mo Sha was following Ye Liuyun's order not to intervene.

Ye Liuyun, however, paid no attention to their fight and focused on gathering the Divine Crystals on the ground.

Xiao Muan smiled, tossed a Formation Flag into the air, and many assassins trying to hide in the void were immediately forced to reveal themselves.

After that, a guard also charged at Ye Liuyun.

"Ah!"

Ye Liuyun pretended to be scared, shouted, draped on the Invisibility Cloak, and vanished before the guard.

The guard, stunned for a moment, felt a coldness on his neck as Ye Liuyun silently slit it with a soundless dagger.

"Invisibility treasure?"

Xiao Muan did not expect that Ye Liuyun would not try to flee, but instead hide using the Invisibility treasure.

However, as long as Ye Liuyun cannot escape the area covered by the Formation Flag, he is not worried.

In his view, Ye Liuyun is now a turtle in a jar.

He immediately summoned a few guards to stay by his side.

At the same time, his Divine Sense also noticed that the Divine Crystals on the ground were still decreasing.

"That greedy bastard!"

Xiao Muan chuckled inwardly, paid no attention to Ye Liuyun, and focused on the battle against Black Kill.

Their numbers exceeded Black Kill's, and because of the void ban, Black Kill had nowhere to hide, so for a time Black Kill was at a great disadvantage.

But as the fight continued, a guard suddenly vanished.

"Soul fluctuation!"

Xiao Muan's Divine Soul Power is the strongest in this void zone, second only to Ye Liuyun.

Thus he also sensed the Soul fluctuation generated when Ye Liuyun launched a Spiritual Soul Attack.

But he could not lock onto Ye Liuyun's location and did not know where Ye Liuyun was.

The assassin fighting that guard was also stunned, but another guard immediately struck him, forcing him to fight back at once.

Then, another guard suddenly disappeared.

"Damn!"

Xiao Muan knew it was Ye Liuyun's doing, yet he felt helpless against Ye Liuyun.

"Ye Liuyun, I am helping you deal with Black Kill, and you dare strike at me?"

Xiao Muan shouted directly into the air.

"If you want me to stop, you must pay the price.

Otherwise, whether you destroy Black Kill or Black Kill destroys you, it's still uncertain!"

Ye Liuyun, to avoid revealing his position, sent a Transmission Voice directly to Xiao Muan.

But Xiao Muan, using Ye Liuyun's Transmission Voice, quickly locked onto Ye Liuyun's location and immediately launched a Spiritual Soul Attack at Ye Liuyun.

"Ha ha, you just walked right into my hands!"

Ye Liuyun's Soul laughed within the Sea of Consciousness.

Actually, he had not intended to capture Xiao Muan, only some Martial Cultivator strongmen.

He did not expect Xiao Muan to come to him voluntarily.

Now Xiao Muan has learned the secret of the Ten Thousand Gods Command in his Sea of Consciousness, so Ye Liuyun naturally could not let him go and immediately placed a Slave Seal on him.

Then he began a Soul Search, learning all of Xiao Muan's plans.

Xiao Muan's mother was originally a princess, but she was framed in a harem power struggle and was ordered to die by the Holy King.

Therefore, Xiao Muan harbored a grudge and constantly plotted to usurp the throne.

Thus he joined Black Kill, ostensibly helping them while actually exploiting them.

Now his influence has grown, and he prepares to stir a larger conflict between the Holy King and Black Kill.

Moreover, after years of restraint, he cultivated a Soul secret art and has already controlled many forces.

Especially his Soul secret art, which can transform his Soul into a watery substance that envelops and devours the opponent's Soul, thereby strengthening his own Divine Soul Power.

It yields a result similar to Ye Liuyun's Soul secret art, but the method differs.

If Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness did not contain the Ten Thousand Gods Command that instantly fixed him, he might not have been a match for Xiao Muan's technique.

Ye Liuyun returned his Soul, and together with his clone, began to control Black Kill.

Black Kill's assassins had already lost seven lives; Ye Liuyun seized the remaining five, and the battle ended immediately.

Then Xiao Muan deployed a Flying Boat, Ye Liuyun also appeared, withdrew his clone, nine-headed demon dragon, and Magic Vine, and boarded the Flying Boat with Xiao Muan.

"Hand over the Martial Cultivators you control to me; keep ten yourself to guard against Black Kill, and that will be enough."

Ye Liuyun ordered him.

"Yes."

Xiao Muan did not expect this outcome; he released the Martial Cultivators beside him one by one, handing them to Ye Liuyun to place Slave Seals on.

Even several renowned Alchemists and Artificers he controlled were swept away by Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun now has as many as forty of these Martial Cultivator strongmen.

"And your Storage Ring!"

Ye Liuyun left him absolutely nothing, even taking away most of the resources in his Storage Ring.

As for that massive warship, Ye Liuyun left it to him so that he wouldn't have trouble reporting back.

"When you return, you still need to find a way to reduce the consumption of Black Kill and the Holy Land Dynasty, and focus on dealing with the Foreign Tribe."

Ye Liuyun gave Xiao Muan a detailed explanation of the Foreign Tribe's characteristics and their methods.

Ye Liuyun also handed over the captured Foreign Tribe and that Nuo Lin to Xiao Muan.

"This Foreign Tribe also serves as evidence for you.

Just say that I discovered the Foreign Tribe in the Holy Land, that I'm tracking them, so you didn't capture me.

The specific details, you can just write them as you see fit."

After briefing Nuo Lin, Ye Liuyun also deleted the memory of capturing Nuo Lin from Nuo Lin's Sea of Consciousness, so that no one would detect any irregularity.

Xiao Muan now also realizes the seriousness of the problem and immediately takes Nuo Lin back to the Royal Palace.

Liu Kui and the others also received the retreat order and all withdrew.

Ye Liuyun then summoned a nine-headed demon dragon and, together with his clone, launched an attack on the Elder that Black Kill had left for observation.

"Roar!"

The nine-headed demon dragon let out a roar, causing Black Kill's Elder to reveal his form.

Its current Soul-Shaking Wave Secret Technique can already wound a Martial Cultivator.

Ye Liuyun and his clone also struck at him together.

He now has captured enough Martial Cultivators, but just wants to use this Elder to hone his skills.

He and his clone both wield swords; together they managed to strike the Elder so that he was left with only defensive power.

But killing him is not easy for Ye Liuyun.

After finally depleting the Elder's True Essence, he still used Divine Soul Power to plant a Slave Seal on him, without wasting a single Martial Cultivator.

Ye Liuyun also became the biggest winner of this chaotic battle.

He not only obtained a large amount of Divine Crystals, but also captured many Martial Cultivators.

With forty‑one Martial Cultivator strongmen, he will no longer fear the threats of the Holy Land Dynasty and Black Kill.
