Chapter 3175: Rallying Sufficient Numbers
Jiang Yunmu was terrified at this moment. After being entangled by the Magic Vine, he could not resist at all, and the power within his body was quickly drained by the Magic Vine.
"What is this? Ye Liuyun, you dare to kill me?" Jiang Yunmu shouted in alarm.
"Heh heh, who gave you the nerve to be so brazen with me? I don't intend to kill you princes, but…"
Ye Liuyun paused briefly, smiling brightly as he looked at him.
"But what?" Jiang Yunmu was panicking at this moment, regretting his overconfidence.
"But I can make your cultivation level regress, turning you into a useless person!" Ye Liuyun finally said.
"You… you…" Jiang Yunmu trembled his lips, wanting to scold Ye Liuyun, yet truly could not.
He could feel that the Magic Vine was indeed absorbing his energy. If it kept absorbing like this, his cultivation level would truly regress. Once his level regressed, he would have no right to vie for the throne.
The Magic Vine had actually received Ye Liuyun's Transmission Voice, instructing it to absorb slowly, merely to scare Jiang Yunmu. Otherwise, given the Magic Vine's current strength, it could have already caused his level to fall.
"I admit my mistake. You quickly make it stop. Whatever you want, I will agree to!"
Jiang Yunmu immediately realized and promptly softened.
Ye Liuyun immediately halted the Magic Vine. He only intended to scare Jiang Yunmu. After all, Jiang Yunmu hadn't really offended him. Keeping him means he can later cause some trouble for Jiang Yuntian.
"Alright, since you're so sincerely admitting fault, I'll give you a chance. Hand over all your resources, let your army surrender to me, and I'll let you go." Ye Liuyun said directly.
"I can give you all the resources. Can I keep the army?" Jiang Yunmu tried to bargain with Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun, however, seized the chance to trap Jiang Yuntian: 'That's not allowed; I have already taken the Great Prince's resources, I must take away your army.
Not striking you is already merciful; you have no room to bargain with me. Otherwise, I will, according to the Great Prince's request, lower your cultivation level to Guiyi Seventh Layer!'
"Well done, Jiang Yuntian, you're truly ruthless, trying to ruin my cultivation!"
Jiang Yunmu could no longer stay calm, and came to utterly hate Jiang Yuntian.
Ye Liuyun smiled inwardly, but outwardly only urged him to quickly hand over the resources and let the soldiers surrender. The Magic Vine continued to coil around him, not releasing him.
So he obediently handed over all the resources he carried. Ye Liuyun saw that the resources he gave were indeed substantial; even if he kept a little, it wouldn't be much.
Jiang Yunmu's ten thousand Dynasty Army and two hundred thousand Reinforcement Troops all surrendered to Ye Liuyun. Those Leaders, controlled by Jiang Yunmu, dared not disobey his orders.
Ye Liuyun thought it over, realizing he couldn't take all those Reinforcement Troops, so he asked Jiang Yunmu: "Do you want to keep some soldiers?"
Jiang Yunmu was also stunned, not understanding what Ye Liuyun meant.
"I think you're cooperating well; if you're willing to give some resources, I can leave you some guards and soldiers. I'll take away most of the strongest soldiers, which would count as completing the Great Prince's mission, right?"
Upon hearing, Jiang Yunmu immediately understood that Ye Liuyun wanted to earn more resources and could leave him some soldiers, and he nodded vigorously, replying to Ye Liuyun: "Yes, yes, take the main soldiers away, and that counts as you completing the mission!"
However, he also immediately realized he had no resources left. So he discussed with Ye Liuyun whether he could pay him later.
Ye Liuyun thought it over and told Jiang Yunmu to immediately arrange for people to deliver all the resources to Jiang Yunmo.
He only took away eighty thousand soldiers of the mid‑late Guiyi stage, leaving the rest to Jiang Yunmu; the lower‑level soldiers and those Reinforcement Troops he took none.
Ye Liuyun also didn't take Jiang Yunmu's guard unit, leaving them to protect Jiang Yunmu. Jiang Yunmu thus expressed gratitude to Ye Liuyun, thanking him repeatedly.
He now had a Ninefold Strong guard team and a 2.2‑million army, which could hold for a while without issue. If he reinforced immediately, there would still be a chance to catch up.
After Jiang Yunmo received the resources, Ye Liuyun left at once, using the Black Tower to teleport back to the Xingqiu Jiang Yunfei had previously captured, letting Xiao Heng and Cui Daoran lead troops out to continue training until the army reached ten thousand before stopping.
He hadn't expected that the ten thousand army would be assembled so easily.
The final ten thousand soldiers, the lowest cultivation level among them being Guiyi Fifth Layer, were already relatively strong among the various armies of the Fire Seal Dynasty.
The Fire Seal Dynasty had more than just the armies of those few princes; other armies were also fighting everywhere, plundering resources.
And the army Ye Liuyun now displayed, even if the Fire Seal Dynasty wanted to annihilate them, it would be impossible without a two‑to‑three‑hundred‑thousand army. Moreover, he had hidden five thousand of the strongest soldiers.
The rest was just waiting for the Dynasty to send him resources.
To prevent the Dynasty from using the resource delivery as a chance to strike him, he would never appear himself, instead letting Xiao Heng represent him and accept the Dynasty's authorization.
When the Dynasty's people arrived here, Ye Liuyun was watching from afar in Xingkong.
The arriving party was indeed small, only a dozen Guiyi Ninth Layer strong ones, protecting a Dynasty official. Yet Ye Liuyun saw that among them were two Martial Cultivators with exceptionally strong Divine Soul Power. Moreover, one Martial Cultivator's Divine Sense detection range even encompassed Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun was also shocked by his Divine Sense detection range. He had already been two days away from that Xingqiu. With his current Spatial Power, two days could traverse two planets, yet that strong one could still detect him.
However, although that strong one could detect him, the distance was too great to launch an attack. Moreover, his own Divine Soul Power was actually not as strong as Ye Liuyun's.
So those people could only follow the Dynasty's soldier recruitment procedure, handing all resources to Xiao Heng. Xiao Heng, following Ye Liuyun's instructions, had the Dynasty register the name of this legion as Death Legion.
Ye Liuyun didn't care whether those two Divine Soul strong ones came to protect the official or to confront him; in any case, he would not give the Fire Seal Dynasty a chance to act against him.
He only mused inwardly about the strong one's power: "It seems my application of Divine Soul Power still has a long way to go!"
Previously he had used his Divine Sense from afar to monitor others; now that he had encountered someone with stronger Divine Sense detection, he immediately began to imitate and practice Divine Sense probing.
His Divine Soul Power was strong, but he only valued combat ability; his Divine Sense probing range was far inferior to that strong one's, reaching only half the distance.
And with such a large probing range, many details escaped his notice; if someone deliberately concealed their form, he might not detect them.
