Chapter 2627: Inciting Public Outrage

~7 min read 1,399 words

Those who do business in places like this still have some tricks.

Elder Baro of the Han Yong Tribe, under these circumstances, can still stay calm and speak to Ye Liuyun with neither humility nor arrogance, which is rare.

Ye Liuyun heard this, nodded, and asked back, "Actually, some things, no one cares about right or wrong."

Today you kill me, tomorrow I kill you; that's the norm of the Martial Cultivator world.

In the end, it still comes down to whose strength is greater.

The rule that the weak are eaten by the strong never changes, right?

Elder Baro thought for a moment; the meaning of Ye Liuyun's words was clearly that if his strength were great, he could bully them at will.

But the reasoning Ye Liuyun gave was indeed correct, so he nodded and added, "But everything should also have its limits."

Too much evil and excessive flaunting will not lead to a good end.

His meaning was obvious: he was warning Ye Liuyun not to go too far.

Ye Liuyun, of course, understood.

"Ha ha, I actually think you match my temperament.

If the Han Yong Tribe wants to negotiate with me in the future, let you handle it! I don't want to deal with anyone else!"

After Ye Liuyun tossed out that sentence, the resources he had been eyeing here were almost fully gathered, and he intended to capture a few more people to take away.

However, he thought Elder Baro still had some merit, so he didn't want to trouble him further.

Just as he was about to leave, Wan Gang finally couldn't hold back and spoke up.

Wan Gang felt that Ye Liuyun was deliberately humiliating Baro, and thus insulting their tribe, a tone he could not swallow.

Baro just let out a sigh of relief, then grew nervous again.

He told Wan Gang not to cause more trouble.

But Wan Gang said to Ye Liuyun, "According to our tribe's rules, I can, in my own name, challenge you."

If you beat me, you can take the goods without paying.

If you lose, not only must you pay for the goods, but the Xiao Ran must also be left behind."

"Oh?"

Ye Liuyun smiled brightly at Wan Gang and asked, "Does your tribe have such a rule?"

Can a higher-realm person challenge a lower-realm person?"

Ye Liuyun was right; he had just used a Slave Seal to inquire about the Xiao Ran.

When their tribe encounters disputes, they indeed have a tradition of challenges, but those are limited to the same realm.

A higher-realm person challenging a lower-realm person would be ridiculed and bullied.

Wan Gang was choked by Ye Liuyun's words, his face turning bright red, unable to speak.

Ye Liuyun looked at his awkward expression and couldn't help laughing, "Ha ha, did I hit the mark?"

But, I can accept your challenge, yet your condition is unfair.

I'll add one more clause: if you lose, you become my slave! Dare you fight?"

"Wan Gang, don't act rashly; beware of falling into his trap!

Baro reminded Wan Gang.

"As long as you fight me based on strength, I'll agree!"

Wan Gang immediately agreed, not wanting to miss the chance to teach Ye Liuyun a lesson.

Ye Liuyun nodded and also replied, "Fine, then I'll fight you based on strength."

"It's a promise!"

Wan Gang leapt out at once.

Baro shook his head helplessly, knowing he couldn't restrain Wan Gang's hot temper.

After leaping out, Wan Gang proactively said to Ye Liuyun, "Your realm is low; I won't take advantage, you may strike first!"

He also felt embarrassed about his higher realm.

But for the tribe's resources and to rescue the Xiao Ran, he didn't want to miss this chance.

Ye Liuyun laughed, "It doesn't matter.

Since we're fighting, there's no need to distinguish realms.

Prepare yourself, I'm about to start."

"Come on!"

Wan Gang let out a loud shout and assumed his stance.

However, Ye Liuyun directly launched a Spiritual Soul Attack.

Relying on his realm or Mysterious Origin to fight Wan Gang, he certainly wouldn't be Wan Gang's match, unless he borrowed the power of the Space World.

But he felt there was no need at all.

Wan Gang's Divine Soul Power, though not weak, was comparable to the Xiao Ran's.

Yet the Martial Cultivators in their tribe have very limited ways of using Divine Soul Power, their Soul combat ability is weak, so they are no match for Ye Liuyun and are directly marked with a Slave Seal.

However, Ye Liuyun only controlled the Slave Seal to prevent him from attacking again, without controlling his thoughts.

"You're cheating!"

Wan Gang shouted immediately.

"I used Divine Soul Power to defeat you; how is that cheating?

Isn't Divine Soul Power one of the strengths?

If Divine Soul Power isn't strength, why would you cultivate it?"

Ye Liuyun directly retorted.

Afterwards, he also asked everyone present: 'Who among you thinks Divine Soul Power is not part of strength?'

As a Martial Cultivator, True Essence, Physical Body, and Soul are three-in-one cultivation; which aspect is not a manifestation of strength?

What Ye Liuyun said is indeed correct; Divine Soul Power should indeed be counted as part of strength, and it is also a very basic power, an important part.

So for a while, no one could refute it.

But what Wan Gang said about fighting with strength clearly referred to relying on True Essence strength and Physical Body, not including Soul.

It's just that the two of them hadn't made it clear beforehand.

"You..." Wan Gang was so angered by Ye Liuyun that he didn't know what to say.

Wanting to make a move, but he was again controlled by the Slave Seal, unable to act against Ye Liuyun.

"Alas!"

Wan Gang let out a long sigh, his belly full of resentment turning into a punch that blasted upward, making the air continuously explode with bangs.

"Let's go, losing means admitting it! I still have a lot of things to buy!"

Ye Liuyun, however, said it lightly, turned and walked toward the other stalls.

Xiaoran followed behind Ye Liuyun, while Wang Gang lowered his head and followed behind Xiaoran.

Baluo then controlled the tribe's people, letting them not go give Ye Liuyun any more heads.

He thought Ye Liuyun didn't really intend to go all out against Wan Gang.

Although Ye Liuyun's realm is low, relying on his cunning, if he wanted to deal with Wan Gang, there would surely be other ways.

So these people of theirs going up together would probably not gain any advantage.

The people around also followed with long and short sighs; some thought Ye Liuyun was treacherous, some felt indignant for Wan Gang.

But no one dared to block Ye Liuyun, nor did anyone dare to act against him.

They also saw the strength of Ye Liuyun's Divine Soul Power, and felt it wasn't very strong.

But he could control so many people; even the Liehu, whose Divine Soul Power is publicly recognized as stronger, was instantly controlled by Ye Liuyun, so they all thought Ye Liuyun must have some esoteric technique.

Moreover, Ye Liuyun had already subdued so many strong ones, so they dared not speak up even more.

And Ye Liuyun was also impolite; upon reaching each stall, he directly had Xiaoran put things into the Storage Ring, then left after finishing, and no one dared to stop him.

Ye Liuyun's haul that day was not small; not only resources, but also many strong Martial Cultivators.

Xiaoran's Storage Ring was also taken by Ye Liuyun into the Space World.

But his blatant robbery behavior also aroused public anger.

Each stall had already reported the information to its own tribe.

It's just that because Ye Liuyun's current strength is too strong, some tribes have not come up with a way to deal with him.

Moreover, some tribes are contacting other tribes, preparing to unite to deal with Ye Liuyun.

Some are gathering experts, preparing to act against Ye Liuyun.

Just as Ye Liuyun had made a round of looting and everyone thought he would leave, unexpectedly Ye Liuyun publicly announced that he would temporarily reside on this trade planet from now on.

Moreover, he wants to take over this place.

In the future, many forces wanting to do business here will have to accept his management.
