Chapter 3143: Eliminate the After‑effects

Jiang Yunmo just smiled, indicating she understood that the Magic Flood Dragons' consumption was relatively large, and then continued to ask Ye Liuyun, "Were these two Magic Flood Dragons captured from the barren sea?"

"No. They were found in a Secret Realm! The sea‑dwelling Magic Flood Dragons are still somewhat different from the land‑dwelling ones, right?" Ye Liuyun brushed it off lightly, not telling her the truth, and instead changed the subject.

"Has Young Master Li ever seen sea Magic Flood Dragons?" Jiang Yunmo asked again.

"No, I haven't. I just asked some friends, and they also said the scales and the dragon horns are slightly different." Ye Liuyun said naturally.

Jiang Yunmo nodded, then inquired about Ye Liuyun's family and background, found nothing, and politely took her leave from Ye Liuyun.

After she left, Ye Liuyun also said goodbye to the Administrator, and took Qingyu back to his residence.

"Master, that kid must have a shielding treasure; I can't see his realm or Soul. Moreover, his illusion techniques are strong, so his Divine Soul Power is probably not weak either. If I didn't have a purple eye, he might have controlled me." Zi Ao reported to Jiang Yunmo on the way back.

Jiang Yunmo didn't care about Ye Liuyun's Divine Soul Power. Her own Divine Soul Power was already far stronger than that of a Gu Yi Ninth Layer Martial Cultivator, so she thought that even if Ye Liuyun were stronger, he still wouldn't surpass her; he only knows some illusion techniques.

"Hmm, his probing you both did doesn't really explain anything. But I still feel he's not simple. Did you remember his scent? We can't act inside the Royal City and draw others' attention." She intended to have Zi Ao track Ye Liuyun, then act on him after leaving the city.

"Got it, he can't escape!" Zi Ao confirmed.

"Alright, after he leaves the Royal City, we'll follow! Then you find a chance to act and subdue him." Jiang Yunmo instructed.

"Is this kid that important? Worth the master leaving the city personally?" Zi Ao asked, somewhat surprised.

"Of course. If he truly is Ye Liuyun, or one of Ye Liuyun's group, he'd be valuable. Even if not, bringing back that many resources and two Ninth Layer Late Stage Magic Flood Dragons isn't a wasted trip."

"That's true!" Zi Ao nodded in agreement.

On Ye Liuyun's side, he was discussing tactics with the Monster Beasts: "The Gu Yi Seventh Layer Mastiff Monster Beast has a pair of purple eyes that can see through, dispel illusion techniques, and perceive the Soul; perhaps it can even directly attack the Soul."

"The mastiff's sense of smell is very keen, and with its penetrating eyes, it's hard to shake off," the Monster Beasts all thought, noting this opponent would be difficult to deal with.

"If his purple eye can directly annihilate the Soul, that's even more dangerous! We should strike first and eliminate it." Lei Ming was worried that the special purple eye might harm Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun also wanted to get rid of that mastiff. The Sacred Fire Trade Association sells slaves and corpses, as well as many resources he could use, and he plans to purchase those resources again later. He isn't comfortable letting others handle it; if he doesn't eliminate that mastiff, his future visits will surely be exposed.

"I'm just afraid that later many strong individuals will cooperate with that mastiff."

What he feared was being unable to leave the Royal City, with the dynasty or Jiang Yunmo acting on him inside the city. Once outside the Royal City, he could act freely, and dealing with that mastiff wouldn't worry him much.

Since that mastiff's purple eye can't see through his Sea of Consciousness, it shouldn't be a match for the Ten Thousand Gods Command; the Ten Thousand Gods Command has never failed to guard his Soul.

After returning to his residence, he released the two guards dispatched by his primary clone, captured the four elders into the Space World, then used his Soul Red Eye to control Qingyu, having her escort him out of the city quietly, trying to keep the Trade Association unaware as long as possible.

Under the effect of illusion techniques, Qingyu, just as before, took Ye Liuyun out of the Trade Association and then directly left the city.

As soon as Ye Liuyun left, Jiang Yunmo's side already noticed something amiss. Previously Ye Liuyun left accompanied by newly bought slaves; this time he gathered the slaves back and went out with guards instead.

So he immediately sent people to keep an eye on Ye Liuyun. After receiving the news that Ye Liuyun would leave the city, Jiang Yunmo also promptly took Zi Ao and also brought twenty

Gu Yi Ninth Layer guards followed out.

Qingyu kept escorting Ye Liuyun out of the Royal City; only after Ye Liuyun lifted the illusion technique did he let her go back.

Once he left the city, he began accelerating his escape, and after a while released Wu Xiang's Void‑step Flying Boat. The Flying Boat's exterior had already been modified by Chen Huoyang, so it wouldn't be recognized.

The primary clone also piloted a Flying Boat, flying opposite him. When the two met, he seized the Flying Boat and entered the primary clone's Space World to avoid being tracked by that mastiff.

The Flying Boat flew for a while, then changed direction, and released the two Ninth Layer Late Stage strongmen from the Leng Jia and Wan Hua Sect, letting them scout whether anyone was trailing him.

After flying a bit more, the primary clone landed the Flying Boat and dispatched an assassin outside to monitor the area. If that mastiff could still track Ye Liuyun, it would likely pass through here.

Ye Liuyun, without fully confirming whether Jiang Yunmo was tracking him, dared not take further action, lest they suddenly intervene and cause trouble.

Moreover, he estimated that with the Void‑step Flying Boat's speed and their changing direction, ordinary Martial Cultivators wouldn't be able to catch up. Unless the mastiff Monster Beast personally pursued him, others would have been left behind by now.

But less than two hours after he left, the assassin he had sent to monitor discovered Zi Ao leading the way ahead, with a Void‑step Flying Boat following behind, and leisurely pursued toward the direction Ye Liuyun had departed.

"Zi Ao's sense of smell is indeed extraordinary. Even though I used the teleportation Black Tower to leave this time, if I ever encounter that mastiff Monster Beast again, it will still be detected. Better to take the chance when it pursues and eliminate it!"

When Ye Liuyun thought of this, he had the assassin follow Zi Ao from a distance, reporting its movements, then ordered his Flying Boat to full speed, pulling away from Zi Ao, and later found an uninhabited mountain range to stop, letting Wu Xiang help set up a Formation.

Now that he has a Great Array Master, dealing with these people gives him more confidence and he no longer worries about them escaping.

He guessed that the Flying Boat following Zi Ao must contain many strong individuals; otherwise they wouldn't need a Void‑step Flying Boat. He intends to capture them all in one net.

Wu Xiang's formation‑setting ability far surpasses Qiong Qi's. He also made a special arrangement based on the purple eye's traits, not only preventing the purple eye's probing but also deploying an Illusion Array, causing Zi Ao to see only the original terrain, unable to perceive what lies within.

Yet Ye Liuyun could see Zi Ao and those opponents within the Formation. Moreover, the Formation was very sturdy; even if they fought fiercely inside the trapped array, outsiders could not detect it nor probe its interior.
