Chapter 2880: Obey the Rules

This was still Ye Liuyun's first time being laughed at like an idiot.

But he wasn't angry either. He was merely testing what attitude these locals, who usually pride themselves on being noble, would show. Now he knows, and his heart won't be uneasy when he acts.

When it comes to the rules of the martial world, he knows them far better than these people. Moreover, once he moves, his killing is decisive.

Ye Tiandao also sent a Transmission Voice to Ye Liuyun: "It seems the Martial Cultivators on this Place (maybe term) aren't all idiots like Qin Mengxi!"

Ye Liuyun laughed back: "Indeed! These people are the very foundation of their continued existence!"

After the Martial Cultivators surrounding them finished laughing, one of them scolded Ye Liuyun: "Stop stalling, hand over the Storage Ring quickly; we don't have time to waste on an idiot!"

Speaking, he also projected a pressure aura toward Ye Liuyun and his group. That Martial Cultivator was in the realm of a Ninefold Strong, believing he could intimidate Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun's smile vanished, and he solemnly told them: "Since the rules are spoken with strength, I will obey the rules. If you want my Storage Ring, you must have that strength, right?"

"Hahaha, this kid… you've made me laugh to death!"

The bandits, seeing Ye Liuyun's solemn demeanor, burst into another round of laughter. They thought that Ye Liuyun, with the realm of a Sixfold Sovereign, was provoking a Ninefold Strong, showing he knew nothing of the heavens and earth.

Everyone here was of a higher realm than Ye Liuyun, and their Buddha Light Power could also amplify combat strength. They could easily deal with him. They all thought the kid before them might truly be a fool.

The Martial Cultivator who just spoke, still laughing, kicked a nearby Eightfold Sovereign Martial Cultivator: "Go, fetch his Storage Ring. If we can't make this fool understand, don't waste time!"

The Eightfold Sovereign Martial Cultivator also laughed, nodded repeatedly, and ran toward Ye Liuyun, intending to snatch his Storage Ring directly.

Ye Liuyun saw him approach, his mouth corner lifted, and a fist blasted forward.

Within that fist, Mysterious Origin and abundant Heaven and Earth Power hadn't even struck when the arriving Martial Cultivator turned pale. He tried to dodge but it was too late, hurriedly throwing a fist to lessen the damage.

Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil saw clearly; his fist was sheathed in a layer of Golden Light, with plenty of Buddha Light Power on it.

But that fist was too hasty, while Ye Liuyun's own fist, aided by massive Heaven and Earth Power, made a 'Boom', and the Martial Cultivator was struck so that his Physical Body shattered, flesh and blood scattering.

The surrounding Martial Cultivators' smiles all froze on their faces.

"Ah! You actually killed him!" the Ninefold Strong who had sent that Martial Cultivator finally reacted, and immediately lunged at Ye Liuyun.

"I not only want to kill him, but also you!"

Ye Liuyun let out a cold laugh, and another fist blasted forward.

His Spatial Power made that fist appear instantly before the Martial Cultivator. Within the fist, Ye Liuyun also employed Bloodline Power, combined with condensed Mysterious Origin, and mobilized Heaven and Earth Power, smashing into the Martial Cultivator's chest in an instant.

The Martial Cultivator couldn't even counter in time, only using True Essence to defend. Another booming sound rang, and Ye Liuyun's strike punched a huge hole through his chest; his eyes widened in disbelief as he fell backward, looking up at the sky.

"Kill! Don't just stand there!" the Unified Realm strong leader shouted, and was the first to charge at Ye Liuyun.

Other Martial Cultivators also drew weapons and rushed at them. Ye Tiandao swung the Demon Slaying Sword, cleaving the armed Martial Cultivators, leaving the bare‑fisted ones for Ye Liuyun to spar with. Each swing cut one down, drawing the attention of the other cultivators.

Li Daoyuan just stood watching the spectacle. As long as no one attacked him, he wouldn't reveal his strength.

The Unified Realm Martial Cultivator strong one threw a fist at Ye Liuyun. A Unified Realm strong cultivator has already mastered the flow of Heaven and Earth, making the Heaven and Earth Power in his fist even stronger. Moreover, his True Essence also incorporated Buddha Light Power.

Ye Liuyun also met it with a full‑force fist, wanting to test his opponent's strength.

Another 'Boom' sounded, Ye Liuyun was blasted away, but his powerful Physical Body bore the force of the opponent's fist.

"You block him first; I'll go deal with the others!" When Ye Liuyun saw the opponent was too strong, he immediately had Li Daoyuan intercept him, while he went to spar with the others.

Now that he knows these people's strength, he began conserving Mysterious Origin, using a moderate amount of Heaven and Earth Power to attack his opponents.

After a burst of booming, several more Martial Cultivators were blasted dead by Ye Liuyun. On Ye Tiandao's side, she was faster; the armed Martial Cultivators were quickly cut down one by one, then she returned to aid Ye Liuyun.

When the Unified Realm strong one engaged Li Daoyuan, he immediately realized Li Daoyuan's realm was higher. He could only muster all his power, barely sustaining himself with Buddha Light Power against Li Daoyuan.

After Ye Liuyun blasted another Martial Cultivator to death, he promptly used a Storage Yuan Stone to replenish his Mysterious Origin, then eliminated all the remaining cultivators.

In the end only that Unified Realm strong one remained, surrounded in the center by the three of Ye Liuyun's group.

Ye Liuyun had previously blocked his fist; although he sensed Ye Liuyun's strength was inferior, even his strongest punch hadn't harmed Ye Liuyun. And Ye Tiandao's sword intent could clearly threaten him. As for Li Daoyuan, who was fighting him directly, his attacks were even more lethal.

Now he was fighting three at once, certainly nervous. In his haste, he released his Soul, charging toward Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness.

Li Daoyuan's realm was higher, so he dared not attack Li Daoyuan's Sea of Consciousness. And Ye Tiandao was clearly Ye Liuyun's maid, so he aimed to take down Ye Liuyun first.

But his Soul, upon bursting into Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness, was enveloped by the Golden Light of the Ten Thousand Gods Command.

Ye Liuyun sighed: "No chance to use you for sparring!" He then had to place a Slave Seal on that Martial Cultivator, performing a Soul Search to learn the information in his Sea of Consciousness.

Li Daoyuan and Ye Tiandao immediately ceased fighting and went straight to clean up the battlefield.

These Martial Cultivators all belonged to the same Great Clan, the Wan family; the one captured by Ye Liuyun was named Wan Congshan, a mainline disciple.

The Wan family's strength far surpasses that of the Qin family; they are a ruler of a Xingqiu, and even across the entire Demon‑slaying Xing Xi, they are the topmost force.

The four great families—Wan, Tang, Zhou, and An—almost control eighty percent of the Xing Xi's Xingqiu. Even the Xingqiu where the Qin family resides is under Wan's influence.

The entire Wan family fully understands the cruelty and rules of the martial world. They have long been sending disciples to train on uninhabited Xingqiu, and have even allied with several other major forces to form an expeditionary army, seizing resources in other Xing Xi.

Ye Liuyun noticed that in Wan Congshan's memories, an elder of the Wan family had mentioned their current expeditionary army was attacking a Demon Race Xingqiu called Mingwang.

"Mingwang Xing Xi? Or a Demon Race?"

Ye Liuyun immediately became interested.
