Chapter 2822: Killing the Crown Prince

Unexpectedly, the young man let out a cold snort and proudly told them, "Hmph, we are certainly not outsiders! This is the hunting ground of our Ice Snow Empire! And I am the Crown Prince of the Ice Snow Empire, Liao Xuesong."

Any Martial Cultivator who dares to trespass the Empire's hunting ground shall be killed without mercy! I saw that you all possess Ice Power, so I did not strike you down outright.

If you all kneel and submit to me, sign a loyalty contract, become my slaves, I can spare your lives!

The prince named Liao Xuesong himself is at the Dominant Eightfold realm.

And the silver‑armored soldiers surrounding them are all at the Dominant Four‑to‑Fivefold realm, their strength is not weak.

Behind him stands a Junior Leader who dominates the Ninth realm, followed by two squads of soldiers, clearly showing they do not regard Ye Liuyun and his companions seriously.

"How did you tell that we all have Ice Power?"

Ye Liuyun ignored his words and instead voiced his own question.

"Bold, still daring to question the prince! Are you getting impatient with life?"

The guard Leader behind Liao Xuesong scolded Ye Liuyun.

Several silver‑armored soldiers raised their spears, immediately pointing at Ye Liuyun, waiting for a command to thrust at him.

Ye Liuyun gave a wry smile, shook his head, instantly activated time freeze, then placed a Slave Seal on that Leader and immediately began a Soul Search.

Through the Soul Search, he learned that throughout this Xing Xi, the Primordial Power all carries Ice Power, some weak, some strong.

This is the planet with the strongest Ice Power, so the Ice Snow Empire has monopolized it as an imperial hunting ground.

The planet harbors some ice‑snow Monster Beast, and the imperial royal family often comes here to hunt these snow monsters.

And the empire's prince Liao Xuesong naturally cultivated Ice Power, even his Soul refined a special ability that can discern the strength of an opponent's Ice Power.

Ye Liuyun and his group had not even touched down when a master had already spotted them.

When Liao Xuesong saw Wu Qingcheng and the other women, he wanted to claim them, so he prevented anyone from killing them and personally led men to chase them down.

They had been staying inside a large tent built from ice blocks, clinging to a cliff; Ye Liuyun had not noticed them before.

Even if he had noticed, it would not have delayed their landing here; Ye Liuyun simply did not care whether outsiders were present.

But Liao Xuesong, though looking respectable, is full of treachery; he even dared to make advances on his women, and after probing their relationship, intended to kill Ye Liuyun, which Ye Liuyun would certainly not let slide.

He immediately released Chi Lian, letting her absorb Liao Xuesong's Bloodline Power.

As for the Junior Leader who dominates the Ninth realm, Ye Liuyun reclaimed the Space World, leaving him to guide the others.

When time resumed.

Liao Xuesong found the Leader behind him vanished, replaced by a red‑clothed woman appearing before him.

Just as he was stunned, everyone immediately felt their qi and blood draining rapidly.

"Act!"

Ye Liuyun instantly sent a Transmission Voice to the others, urging everyone to act.

Chi Lian's main task was to absorb Liao Xuesong's qi and blood, while they temporarily dealt with attacks from others.

The realms of these silver‑armored soldiers happened to be perfect for them to practice.

So they immediately struck, launching attacks on those soldiers.

When they moved, Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense instantly detected another silver‑armored Leader dominating the Ninth realm bursting out from their Ice Crystal tent, followed by over a thousand silver‑armored soldiers charging toward them.

Seeing this, Ye Liuyun also released the Monster Beast and everyone from the Space World, letting all practice together.

He assigned the Ninth‑realm Leader to the Magic Vine to handle.

The Magic Vine, being swift, emerged with a flash of white Technique, slaying that Leader, then coiled its vines to engulf it.

But the others fought with great glee; the realms of these silver‑armored soldiers were close to theirs, perfect for practice.

Even Ye Liuyun and his clone actively joined the battle.

Hei Shan also struck, specifically killing those silver‑armored elites who dominate the Seventh‑to‑Eighth realms.

At this point, Liao Xuesong lay on the ground, his Bloodline Power completely drained.

At first he tried to resist, unleashing Ice Power to attack Chi Lian, but Wu Qingcheng and Man Shu jointly blocked it.

His Ice Power was indeed strong; only Wu Qingcheng and Man Shu together could barely withstand it.

But now his entire qi and blood are drained, like an old man curled on the ground.

His Soul was jointly devoured by Wu Qingcheng, Man Shu, and Yu Er, and his Primordial Core was excavated by Lei Ming.

In the end, the remaining three‑hundred‑plus silver‑armored soldiers, seeing they could not defeat them, surrendered outright.

With Magic Vine and Hei Shan present, they simply could not win.

But Ye Liuyun did not spare them; he had Chi Lian devour all their blood qi, then let her return the Bloodline Power to everyone.

Even the remaining soldiers inside their Ice Crystal tent were eliminated by Chi Lian at Ye Liuyun's order, leaving none, so they could not report back and summon reinforcements.

After the battle, everyone helped clean the battlefield and discovered that each Storage Ring contained ample resources for cultivating Ice Power.

Later, they all returned to the clone's Space World to refine the Bloodline Power that Chi Lian had bestowed upon them.

The bodies of those silver‑armored soldiers were given to the Monster Beast and Hei Shan.

Only bloodstains remained underground; no bodies were left.

The silver‑armored Leader captured by Ye Liuyun was used to guide the clone.

He knows where this world's Primordial Power lies.

If it were ordinary Primordial Power, Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil could detect and directly harvest it.

But here the Primordial Power's Ice attribute is too strong; Ye Liuyun cannot locate it through layers of ice nor subdue it directly.

Ye Liuyun does not merely wish to take the Primordial Power; he wants Wu Qingcheng or Man Shu and others to claim the entire planet.

Thus, after locating the Primordial Power, Ye Liuyun released Wu Qingcheng, Man Shu and the others, letting everyone first help absorb Ice Power together.

They can only weaken the Ice component of the Primordial Power to a certain degree before they can harvest it.

While absorbing the Ice Power within the Primordial Power, they also communicated with it, seeing who it would accept for refinement.

However, unless the Primordial Power is weakened sufficiently, it will not readily agree to them.

But the fact that they killed the Crown Prince in the Empire's hunting grounds, the Ice Snow Empire certainly won't just let it go.

They immediately dispatched a few powerful Dominators of the Ninth Layer to investigate.

As a result, those people were either captured or killed by Ye Liuyun, none of them were sent back.

The Ice Snow Empire also promptly sent a large army to wipe them out.

Knowing they are strong, they did not underestimate them.

Ye Liuyun now has four Dominators of the Ninth Layer by his side; he released them to scout the surroundings for information.
