Chapter 2844: Seeing Through Reservations

After experiencing his Space World, Ye Liuyun, while his duplicate was cultivating, returned to keep Liang Xue, Wu Qingcheng and the other women company.

The women, rare to have a carefree chance to stay with Ye Liuyun, were all very happy; no one cultivated, all came to stay by his side.

Monster Beasts also manifested their true forms, leisurely resting beside them.

Ye Liuyun counted the heads and found Purple Qilin missing.

After asking Lei Ming, he learned that Purple Qilin was striving to strengthen itself in the duplicate's Space World.

It cultivates daily, saying it will emerge once it reaches the Unified Realm.

Ye Liuyun merely smiled, thinking that at its current stage, breaking into the Unified Realm would be easy.

After the duplicate refined the newly absorbed Soul and Bloodline Power, Ye Liuyun let it lead all Martial Cultivators to the Iron Horn Star System, while he took the women and Monster Beasts to cultivate and prepare for battle.

Li Kuo and over seven thousand Martial Cultivators had never been taken into his Space World by Ye Liuyun.

At most, when needed, he had Ye Tiandao gather them.

Thus the duplicate, leading these people with great momentum, would inevitably draw the attention of the Iron Horn Star System's Martial Cultivators.

The martial way in the Iron Horn Star System is highly developed.

Because of this martial development, no dynasty can control these Martial Cultivators, so dynasties gradually vanished, and the largest powers on each planet now dominate the local worlds.

These Martial Cultivator factions, unlike dynasties, are loosely managed, each enjoying considerable autonomy.

However, many of these great powers have already been conquered by Li Daoyuan.

"Master, how shall we deal with Li Daoyuan?"

Li Kuo reported to Ye Liuyun, fearing that without Fang Sihai, Li Daoyuan would strike them directly.

The duplicate casually said, "No need to worry about Li Daoyuan.

Just pick a planet, attack the local Martial Cultivator faction, then claim the planet, just like you did in the Four Directions Star System."

"But… this is Li Daoyuan's territory!"

Li Kuo's voice trembled.

"So what?"

The duplicate looked at him and retorted.

Li Kuo's heart jolted, recalling Fang Sihai's death; he dared not linger, repeatedly agreed, and led his men toward a fringe planet.

The duplicate had previously surveyed that planet and pointed out the location of the strongest faction, so Li Kuo rushed straight there.

Li Kuo still considered negotiating first, but the duplicate ordered him to strike immediately.

"No need, there's nothing to discuss.

They also have two Unified Realm strongmen; without a fight they won't surrender outright!"

"Yes!"

Li Kuo fell silent, leading the Martial Cultivators to charge the great faction.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun, with numerous Monster Beasts and the women, also rushed in to fight.

The Martial Cultivator faction immediately sent out its strongest to meet them.

However, their focus was on Li Kuo and the other Unified Realm strongman, ignoring Ye Liuyun and the duplicate.

Li Daoyuan had already received word that Li Kuo's party was causing trouble.

However, he knew Li Kuo's strength too well; even if Li Kuo had ten times the courage, he still wouldn't dare to provoke him, so it must be Fang Sihai behind the scenes stirring trouble, luring him out for a battle.

"If you want to play tricks on me, you're still green!"

Li Daoyuan smugly thought he had seen through Fang Sihai's scheme.

So he did not act himself; after they landed, he sent nearby Unified Realm strongmen to reinforce, forcing Fang Sihai out first to see his intentions.

Ye Liuyun had also realized this, understanding that the stronger the elite, the more reservations they have.

Thus he wasn't employing any hidden plot, but an open strategy, striking directly.

Li Kuo and his men's Divine Soul Power had recently increased, making them far stronger than before; with Ye Liuyun's supervision, they dared not slack, so each fought bravely.

Ye Liuyun fought alongside the Monster Beasts based on strength alone, not letting them use

any special abilities.

Having Ye Liuyun protecting them, they were not worried about safety.

In critical moments, Ye Liuyun could employ Time Power to rescue them.

He also focused on low‑realm individuals like A Xing, letting them freely grind True Essence.

And Ye Liuyun would wait until Li Kuo's group was midway, then use Time Power to ambush the Unified Realm strongmen, planting Slave Seals to enlarge Li Kuo's forces.

Hei Hu stayed in Ye Liuyun's Space World to cultivate, while Liao Tianyang concealed his realm, trailing the team as a precaution, though rarely needed to act.

Magic Vine, Black Mountain and Red Lotus were taken by the duplicate to a neighboring planet to strike in sync with Ye Liuyun.

They were far more ruthless.

Magic Vine and Black Mountain were used as food and cultivation resources to kill Martial Cultivators.

The duplicate and Red Lotus also joined the fight, but only used True Essence to grind their Physical Bodies.

After the battle, Magic Vine and Black Mountain would usually cripple some Unified Realm or Dominating Nine Heavens Martial Cultivators, allowing Red Lotus to absorb their Bloodline Power and then transfer it to the duplicate.

The duplicate then assisted them in absorbing Divine Soul Power, empowering the souls of Black Mountain and Red Lotus.

Then the Primordial Core would distribute to Black Mountain and Red Lotus.

Upon learning of Li Kuo's strike, Li Daoyuan saw Unified Realm strongmen being constantly controlled, and a squad of Demon Race experts also acting, making him even less daring to act rashly.

He also thought Fang Sihai was acting behind the scenes, having recruited Demon Race allies.

So he accelerated the purge of dissent while gathering Unified Realm Martial Cultivators to his side.

They, with Ye Liuyun's help, have already expanded the team of Unified Realm powerhouses to eight people; anyone who came as reinforcements was controlled by Ye Liuyun.

With Ye Liuyun's aid, they have expanded the Unified Realm elite team to eight; any reinforcements are seized by Ye Liuyun.

【61】 And until Ye Liuyun claimed the planet, he never saw Li Daoyuan's figure.

「Why doesn't Li Dao Yuan make a move?

Also deliberately sent several strong ones over for Ye Liuyun to catch? 」

He couldn't figure out the reason, and he didn't dare to ask Ye Liuyun, so he could only do everything according to Ye Liuyun's orders.

Anyway, the stronger their side's strength, the safer they are.

When they attack the next planet, Li Kuo and the eight captured Return-to-One Realm experts will act together, and the opponent will have no power to resist.

Ye Liuyun also no longer makes a move; those Return-to-One Realm experts capture if they can, kill if they can.

Li Kuo and the others, in order to strengthen their team's strength, naturally try to capture as many as possible, handing them over to Ye Liuyun to implant the Slave Seal.

They also helped Ye Tiandao capture many Sovereign Ninefold Martial Cultivators.

Their Martial Cultivator team became fewer and fewer as they fought; Ye Liuyun didn't let them replenish, but after each battle, he gave the corpses to the ferocious beasts as food reserves.

Ye Tiandao also followed Ye Liuyun's instructions, no longer expanding the team, only retaining Sovereign Ninefold Martial Cultivators; now she doesn't even want Sovereign Seven or Eightfold Martial Cultivators.
