Chapter 2579: Unfavorable First Impression

Meng Qingyin and his group, although capable of damaging the Foreign Tribe outposts, thought that even destroying one or two outposts would be of little significance and would alert the Foreign Tribe, so they restrained themselves and focused on finding Ye Liuyun.

They kept moving forward and finally noticed a change in the Foreign Tribe outposts.

In the forward Foreign Tribe outpost, the number of Foreign Tribe elites had decreased, and the remaining elites were devouring the weak to hasten their own power growth.

The Foreign Tribe soldiers on these Dao xu were few and highly scattered, making them hard to eliminate en masse.

They realized this was the Foreign Tribe's strategy against Ye Liuyun, felt pleased, and thought they would finally get to see him.

However, it was not until two months later that they actually met Ye Liuyun.

This Xingkong journey took them over seven months.

And the group they encountered happened to be the team of Magic Vine and Hong Guang.

At that time Magic Vine was fighting with its true form, while Hong Guang was a Foreign Tribe member; although Mu Sai and others were invisible, the emitted Technique and Black Light allowed them to discern they were Foreign Tribe.

So for a moment they could not be sure whether these were Ye Liuyun's people.

Yet these Foreign Tribe members were indeed killing other Foreign Tribe.

Thus they observed from a distance until Magic Vine finally extracted the Primordial Power of this world; only then did they confirm these must be Ye Liuyun's people, for otherwise they would not have dug out the Primordial Power and completely destroyed that Foreign Tribe outpost.

Facing these Foreign Tribe members and Magic Vine, they were at a loss, not knowing how to approach and greet them.

Fearing attacks from those Foreign Tribe.

Finally, after Magic Vine reclaimed the Primordial Power and restored a human form, they immediately came over to greet them.

But Magic Vine, without a word, immediately called Hong Guang and the others to strike.

Magic Vine and these Foreign Tribe individuals are bloodthirsty species, instinctively treating Ye Liuyun and anyone not by his side as enemies.

So Magic Vine sensed that these people's Sea of Consciousness lacked the Slave Seal imprint planted by Ye Liuyun, and then struck directly.

Moreover, their attacks were brutal, each move a killing technique.

While Lie Du was speaking, Magic Vine's vines immediately coiled around him.

Hong Guang, together with two Gold-armored Alien Tribe Elders, simultaneously attacked Meng Qingyin, while the invisible Foreign Tribe members like Mu Sai directly fired a Technique that killed Meng Qingyin's soldiers.

Lie Du couldn't react in time and was immediately ensnared by Magic Vine.

"We are here to seek an alliance with Ye Liuyun!"

Lie Du shouted it at once.

Meng Qingyin swiftly used Spatial Power to evade the attack, wielded a spear, and released an ice bear from the Space World to counterattack.

The ice bear turned out to be a Zhuanzai Jingjie ferocious beast, Meng Qingyin's combat partner.

"Hmm?"

Upon hearing Lie Du's shout, Magic Vine actually stopped draining his power and immediately halted the other Foreign Tribe's attacks.

"What did you just shout?"

Magic Vine asked Lie Du again for confirmation.

Magic Vine's spiritual intelligence has been rising steadily.

He knows Ye Liuyun is searching for alliance partners everywhere, so he paused to verify.

In Magic Vine's mind, Ye Liuyun's affairs are more important than its own safety.

"We are from the Alliance World, fighting the Foreign Tribe on the Southern Battlefield.

Specifically came to find Ye Liuyun and form an alliance with him."

Lie Du replied immediately.

Although Magic Vine halted the attack, it did not release Lie Du.

It was merely using the Slave Seal to contact Ye Liuyun, to first confirm with him how to handle the situation.

After receiving the message, Ye Liuyun immediately emerged from his duplicate's Space World and rushed here with Spatial Power.

He also told Magic Vine not to attack them any further and to wait until he arrived here.

"Our leader is on his way; let us cease attacking you and wait until he arrives to speak!"

Magic Vine replied to Lie Du and cautiously released him, evidently also lowering its guard against them.

At this moment, Meng Qingyin's ten subordinates had already been annihilated by Mu Sai's three-eyed Foreign Tribe members.

These soldiers were only at the Heavenly Person Third Rank, unable to evade the Technique of those three‑eyed Foreign Tribe.

Meng Qingyin was furious over the soldiers' deaths, seeking justice for them.

"Qingyin, hold back; wait until we meet Ye Liuyun before speaking, we must not lose the big picture over a small matter!"

Lie Du immediately asserted authority over her to prevent a rift with Ye Liuyun's side.

"Our leader is rushing from a Foreign Tribe outpost and should arrive in two or three days.

Wait for his arrival and then negotiate with him!"

Magic Vine also told them, and then they stared intently at Lie Du and Meng Qingyin, watching their movements cautiously.

Clearly they would not let them leave and were also on guard against a counterstrike.

Meng Qingyin suppressed her anger, waiting to settle scores with Ye Liuyun, so her first impression of him could not be good.

After a day of waiting, Meng Qingyin felt somewhat annoyed by the Foreign Tribe's stare.

"Stop staring at us like you're watching a prisoner, will you?"

Meng Qingyin scolded Magic Vine.

"That won't do; our leader said we can't let you go, so I have to watch you!"

Magic Vine replied.

Lie Du, also of the Demon Race, immediately understood that Magic Vine's spiritual intelligence might not be as high as a human's.

So he tested Magic Vine with a few remarks, and indeed that was the case.

Thus he immediately sent a Transmission Voice to Meng Qingyin, telling her not to engage with those people on equal terms.

"A group of foreign tribes, a monster beast with low intelligence—you'd better not talk to them, lest they misunderstand."

"They only carry out death orders, just a bit stronger than puppets; speaking to them is useless."

"Hmph!"

"After receiving the Transmission Voice, Meng Qingyin understood in her heart, but she still snorted angrily and said, 'Wait until Ye Liuyun comes, then I'll settle the score with him.'"

"If you dare to make a move against our boss, we'll kill you!"

"The Magic Vine also said."

"He was just speaking the truth."

"But to Meng Qingyin's ears, it sounded like a threat."

"So the Magic Vine would have been better off not speaking; but after saying that, Meng Qingyin's temper flared, and she felt compelled to act."

"Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

"Meng Qingyin brandished her spear and was about to stab the Magic Vine."

"The Magic Vine was momentarily dazed, unsure whether to act."

"Because Ye Liuyun had told them not to act."

"But now she actually wants to attack him, so he hesitates."

"Lie Du also immediately moved to block Meng Qingyin."

"Qingyin, why won't you listen to advice! What he meant by saying that is exactly what he himself thinks."

"He didn't mean to threaten you!"

"As an Elder of the Demon Race, Lie Du knows that many demons have low intelligence, and when expressing themselves to humans, such misunderstandings often arise."

"Fierce beasts are the same; they have this problem too."

"Meng Qingyin also suddenly realized this problem, which is why she refrained from acting."

"Stop!"

"Suddenly, a shout came from afar."

"Ye Liuyun saw from afar that Meng Qingyin was about to act, and then sent a transmission voice to stop her."

"His and the Magic Vine's attack base were originally adjacent."

"The distance between them, he used Spatial Power to its fullest, Bing Shi, and he could reach there in just a few days."

"After learning the situation from the Magic Vine, he also feared they would mishandle it, so he immediately brought the Purple Unicorn, and the two of them took turns using Time Stasis."

"This not only allowed them to shorten the time even further, but also served as practice for Spatial Power."
