Chapter 2664: Lending a Hand

At this moment, everyone had already taken the opportunity to congratulate Lin Xiaoxiao, expressed respect to Ye Liuyun, and seized the chance to ingratiate themselves.

Several women also acted coquettishly, leaning straight onto Ye Liuyun's body; if it weren't in a public setting, they would have likely directly hugged Ye Liuyun and not let go.

In the end, it was Lin feng zhi who lifted the siege on Ye Liuyun, summoned everyone to assemble outside, preparing to start the hunt, and only then did the crowd gradually walk out.

The competing teams numbered over a hundred, each consisting of twenty to thirty people surrounding a young person.

Behind Lin Xiaoxiao was a unit of city-defense soldiers led by Lin Moyu.

Behind the Sixth Prince and the princess were units of Imperial Guard soldiers.

Additionally, several dynasty powerhouses followed them as well.

Ye Liuyun took a look; the two were wearing splendid attire, utterly unlike those going hunting, apparently having no intention to act.

"The competition lasts one month, hunting methods are unrestricted."

Whoever hunts a ferocious beast of the highest realm wins.

For beasts of equal realm, whoever returns first wins.

The winner will receive a ferocious beast tamed for free by Master Ye! But I must remind you, there are ferocious beasts of the Zhuanzai Jingjie realm here; when hunting, consider your own strength!

Lin feng zhi also announced the competition rules and ordered each team to set out.

Lin Xiaoxiao now had a brown lion as her reliance; riding it, she charged ahead first, leaving everyone envious.

The other teams also set out one after another.

The young people were indeed quite interested, obviously very interested in this kind of competition.

Although many knew they could not win, especially with the Sixth Prince and the princess present, the point was being able to communicate with some noble offspring and have fun, so their enthusiasm remained high.

After all the teams had set out, the Sixth Prince returned to the tent to change into a set of armor, emerging in armor.

His retinue also each released a Celestial Being First Tier ferocious beast, mounted them, and sped away.

"This method is actually quite good!"

After seeing that, Ye Liuyun also secretly thought he could use this method later to shake off others' surveillance.

Now only the princess's entourage remained on the field.

The princess, however, directly told Lin feng zhi, "I'm feeling unwell, so I'll trouble Leader Lin to let me rest here; let my maid go in my place!"

"Of course!"

Lin feng zhi dared not say anything, immediately issued orders for his soldiers to protect the princess well.

The princess merely nodded, returned to her warship to rest, and did not stay at the encampment.

Only the princess's maid and Ye Liuyun remained at the original spot.

Lin feng zhi also dared not ask why the maid didn't set out, so he could only ask Ye Liuyun, "Master Ye, won't you join in?"

Ye Liuyun smiled and shook his head: "I have something to attend to first; I'll return before the competition ends!"

Lin feng zhi hadn't expected Ye Liuyun to stop capturing ferocious beasts here.

He still wanted to see what realm of ferocious beast Ye Liuyun could bring back.

But Ye Liuyun obviously did not want to reveal his strength here.

"Alright then! I'll wait here for Master Ye!"

Lin feng zhi could only let him go, after all their prior agreement was that Ye Liuyun could go wherever he wished.

Ye Liuyun directly released a Hunting Falcon, mounted it, and flew toward Xingkong.

The princess's maid nearby saw this and also released a ferocious beast, a Celestial Being Second Tier Golden Peng.

Ferocious beasts of this realm are already quite strong, especially the Golden Peng's flight speed being even faster.

However, after Ye Liuyun flew into Xingkong, he also noticed her pursuit, but merely curled his lip and made the Hunting Falcon speed up.

The Hunting Falcon's realm, Spatial Power, and speed were far beyond what that Celestial Being Second Tier Golden Peng could chase.

Thus, when the maid chased into Xingkong, Ye Liuyun had already flown far away; after she pursued a while, he vanished completely.

"A single Hunting Falcon can have such speed?"

Although she wondered in her heart, she truly could not catch up to Ye Liuyun and could only give up and return.

Ye Liuyun, meanwhile, smiled and urged the Hunting Falcon toward a nearby Xingqiu.

A few days later, before he reached that Xingqiu, Ye Liuyun scanned with his Golden Pupil: "Leader Lin's map is really accurate!"

This Xingqiu, shown on Leader Lin's map as undeveloped, is relatively dangerous.

In Ye Liuyun's view, this Xingqiu is not only a relatively bright planet, but resources are spread across it; although there are some dangers here, for a powerhouse of Ye Liuyun's realm, it's hardly a concern.

Ye Liuyun immediately used his Golden Pupil to locate this world's Primordial Power, then directly had the Hunting Falcon charge down.

Afterwards, Ye Liuyun completely took in this Xingqiu, and it vanished directly.

As for A Xing and the others, they were inside Ye Liuyun's Space World, all heading to that Xingqiu to explore.

Then Ye Liuyun again urged the Hunting Falcon, rushing toward the next target.

After capturing another world, Ye Liuyun felt it was time to return.

Time was tight; if he went farther, he might not make it back before the hunt competition ended.

"Better to return early, then go catch a few ferocious beasts!"

Ye Liuyun again rode the Hunting Falcon back, returning to the Xingqiu where everyone was hunting, with seven days left until the competition ended.

Ye Liuyun first surveyed Xingkong, observing everyone's positions and conditions.

But he discovered that the princess's maid was being pursued and killed.

The seven pursuers were all black-clad masked men, and five of them were actually of the Celestial Being Second Tier realm.

The maid was leading them toward the lair of a Celestial Being Third Tier ferocious beast, apparently intending to use the beast's power to oppose them.

Ye Liuyun stowed the Hunting Falcon and first charged toward that Celestial Being Third Tier ferocious beast.

That ferocious beast was a lion-tiger beast; before it even noticed Ye Liuyun, he implanted a Slave Seal on it, then rode it to meet the maid.

Although they weren't acquainted, since he had seen her, he naturally would help if he could.

The maid kept running, but upon seeing Ye Liuyun and the lion-tiger beast, she immediately stopped.

She didn't know Ye Liuyun had come to rescue her, and instead thought he would also attack her.

She immediately waved both hands, beginning to draw a formation.

"Oh, drawing a formation from afar—you've got some skill!"

Seeing that she had a means of self-defense, Ye Liuyun immediately stopped to watch the spectacle.

The seven black-clothed people chasing the maid from behind, seeing her drawing a formation, also dared not rush forward rashly.

They also saw Ye Liuyun and the lion-tiger beast he was sitting on, which was at the Heavenly Human Triple level, and didn't know whether he was friend or foe.

"Who are you?"

A black-clothed person asked Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun replied with a smile: "Me?

Just passing by! I originally wanted to play the hero and save the beauty, but seeing this, it seems I don't need to intervene, so I'll stay and watch the fun!"

Hearing that, the maid also looked at Ye Liuyun, uncertain whether he had truly come to rescue her.

However, a few of the black-clothed people were unwilling to let Ye Liuyun go; they exchanged transmissions, then moved to surround him.
