Chapter 2739: Making Friends

The other mercenaries watching the spectacle from afar were also shocked by Ye Liuyun's strength, watching with great curiosity.

Ye Liuyun was now one against two, both Zhuanzai Wuchong-level strongmen, so he was even more cautious, especially when attacking the golden lion; he also employed his Golden Pupil, releasing lightning and flame from a distance, scorching several patches on the golden lion's body.

He also clashed blades with that golden lion; although he was blasted away by the aftershock, he was unharmed and immediately drew his knife to fight again.

If he hadn't activated his bloodline's internal circulation, suppressing the golden lion's power even more, he truly couldn't have blocked that lion's strike.

The golden lion's attacks were fiercer than Ling Yuan's.

Against the golden lion, Ye Liuyun's Golden Crow Holy Fire and lightning power exerted great suppressive effect, consuming a lot of the lion's True Essence.

"You kid's combat power is way too strong!"

Ling Yuan was also very curious about Ye Liuyun's limits.

If he kept it up, his golden lion's True Essence would be exhausted.

So he released another Zhuanzai Wuchong-level giant python.

"These are the only two ferocious beasts I have; if you win, you win!"

Ling Yuan said directly.

Ye Liuyun merely smiled faintly, sheathed his knife, and launched a Spiritual Soul Attack.

When his soul was released, it surged into the giant python's Sea of Consciousness, and the python immediately recoiled.

But its speed was insufficient, far slower than the Spiritual Soul Attack.

Yet Ye Liuyun only frightened it; after all, he couldn't destroy Ling Yuan's beast, so he withdrew at once.

"Good! You win!"

Ling Yuan did not cheat, conceding honorably.

The moment he saw Ye Liuyun's soul, he knew he was no match.

At this moment, the leader of their mercenary corps approached, bowing to Ye Liuyun: "I am Xue Liang, commander of the Chang Liang Mercenary Corps; we were short-sighted, failing to see that you are a master.

Our mercenary corps truly cannot accommodate someone like you!"

He thought that even a single Ye Liuyun possessed such overwhelming soul power, that even he was no match.

Therefore, they felt they couldn't retain a talent like Ye Liuyun, and feared he might seize the commander's position, so they promptly apologized to him.

"No need for formalities, commander!"

Ye Liuyun immediately returned the gesture: "I'm new here and unfamiliar with this place; if you don't mind, let's become friends.

Even if I don't join the mercenary corps, I will certainly lend a hand whenever they need it."

He also understood Xue Liang's meaning.

His soul power earlier was too strong, so he knew Xue Liang feared his own position being insecure.

But as a friend walking alongside them to learn the situation, Xue Liang naturally wouldn't refuse.

"Very well! With friends arriving, we of course welcome them!"

Thus Xue Liang agreed.

"Haha, alright kid, didn't expect to have you under control!"

Ling Yuan scratched his head and gave an awkward smile.

He actually liked Ye Liuyun a lot.

Unfortunately the boss spoke up, leaving him no choice but to first become friends with Ye Liuyun.

Later, Ye Liuyun boarded their Flying Boat and headed back with them.

Ye Liuyun also asked Ling Yuan about the situation here.

"I didn't notice your Flying Boat earlier; how did it appear all of a sudden?"

"That's a feature of our Flying Boats here.

Each Flying Boat has an accelerator; once activated, the boat traverses a long stretch of void and then suddenly emerges at the other end.

It's suitable for long-distance travel or to frighten unsuspecting outsiders.

But using the accelerator consumes a lot.

So we are now strolling back slowly.

This time we used the accelerator at a loss!

Moreover, these Flying Boats can not only accelerate through void but also become invisible.

The downside is the price is relatively high.

Our shabby one is already our most valuable asset, worth three Primordial Powers!

Ling Yuan explained to Ye Liuyun.

"That expensive?"

Ye Liuyun hadn't expected a Flying Boat could fetch such a price.

Ling Yuan laughed: "You don't know, we rely on this thing for traveling across Xingkong! Don't be fooled by its shabby exterior; even if sold, it can still fetch two Primordial Powers!"

Ye Liuyun thought about buying a secondhand Warship and giving it to Tong Xin and the other artificers for study.

Later, Ye Liuyun asked about this star system.

"This place is called the Star Disk System; we simply call it Star Disk, created by the leader of the Star Disk Empire on the basis of the original system.

There is only this one empire here, and all Xingqiu are under its jurisdiction.

Don't underestimate the Xingqiu's Primordial Power, but our Martial Cultivator resources are scarce, so we could only form a mercenary corps for mutual support.

To obtain resources, we have to raid everywhere.

Here, aside from the city interior where looting is prohibited, the outskirts are unregulated.

But to enter the city, one must pay an entry fee of one hundred thousand Top-grade Divine Crystals.

Even after entering, without a patron, one is often extorted by the city's soldiers.

So there are many people outside the city, and the people inside are pitifully few.

If nothing's urgent, we wouldn't go into the city.

But if we want to go to the guild to buy things, then we have to enter the city.

There are trading places outside the city as well, but they're a mix of good and bad, and the variety is incomplete.

Currently the Empire is resisting the Foreign Tribe's invasion, so most Martial Cultivators have gone north.

We who don't want to sell our lives to the Empire can only make a living here.

He said this place, and Ye Liuyun recalled, no wonder there are few people in this Xingkong, while the north is bustling.

Nevertheless, Ye Liuyun still plans to first come here to see the situation before deciding whether to go north.

"What is the strength situation of the Martial Cultivators here?"

Ye Liuyun intends to inquire through Ling Yuan.

"It is said the Empire has Martial Cultivators who are Dominant of the Eighth Layer; who knows, we haven't seen them."

On our Xingqiu, even a senior who has reached the Sixfold Sovereign realm already has few rivals.

Don't think that because we are few, we aren't influential here!

If you encounter trouble here, you can invoke the name of our Chang Liang Mercenary Corps, so that no one will dare offend you! I also suggest you change your clothes; your attire is obviously foreign.

Ling Yuan adds the suggestion.

"Fine then!"

Ye Liuyun, not wanting to cause trouble, immediately transforms his golden-plated armor into Mercenary attire.

"You still have a treasure like golden-plated armor?"

This thing is valuable here; it could be exchanged for a Flying Boat like ours, and it's brand new!

Ling Yuan, enviously, reminds Ye Liuyun.

"I only have this one; if I exchange it, I won't have anything to wear!"

Ye Liuyun says so.

But in his heart he thinks that one golden-plated armor for a Flying Boat is an extremely good deal.

"What realms are the soldiers here in?"

Ye Liuyun continues to inquire of Ling Yuan.

"The soldiers here are at the Dominant of the First and Second Layers; ordinary Leaders are only at the Dominant of the Third and Fourth Layers."

But they rely on the Empire's backing and often bully people.

They can't be beaten, yet the local Chengzhu Fu has experts to stand up for them.

You'd better stay away from them; there's nothing good about them!
