Chapter 3284
"Young Master Ye, we meet again!"
Jiang Yunmo proactively greeted Ye Liuyun, but her expression and attitude were those of a princess loftily looking down.
Ye Liuyun looked at her and couldn't fathom where Jiang Yunmo got her confidence. He dared to kill princes, so what stopped him from killing her?
"Could it be just because she's a woman that you think I should cherish and pity her?" he thought to himself, and he didn't respond to Jiang Yunmo.
He was too lazy to respond to such a lofty attitude.
Actually his guess was correct; Jiang Yuantang indeed had this consideration. He thought that Ye Liuyun had previously saved Jiang Yunmo and cooperated with her, and regardless of the purpose, he wouldn't treat Jiang Yunmo as he did other princes.
Jiang Yunmo could talk with Ye Liuyun; even if the talks broke down, Ye Liuyun wouldn't go so far as to kill Jiang Yunmo.
And as long as Ye Liuyun hesitated even a little, Jiang Yunmo would have a chance to release the fire spirit or escape.
Seeing Ye Liuyun ignore her, Jiang Yunmo awkwardly cleared her throat and continued: "Since Young Master Ye doesn't want to catch up, let's get straight to business!"
"Hand over that cultivation method, withdraw your troops, and from now on leave the Huo Yin Star System; the dynasty will no longer pursue you!"
"Is this the attitude of your Fire Seal Dynasty?" Ye Liuyun coldly retorted.
Jiang Yunmo lifted her head and said arrogantly: "You don't understand the strength of our Fire Seal Dynasty. Our true strength far exceeds your imagination."
"The dynasty not wanting to kill you doesn't mean it lacks the ability! Father King no longer wishes to endure; if you continue opposing the dynasty, you're truly walking a dead end!"
Ye Liuyun snorted disdainfully. Jiang Yunmo's words made it seem as if Jiang Yuantang had been tolerating him all along. He didn't believe that if Jiang Yuantang had the capability, he would let his army ransack the planets of the Huo Yin Star System everywhere.
But he also didn't want to waste words with Jiang Yunmo, and directly said: "Then show your strength; empty talk is useless!"
The Demon Lion had silently ransacked Jiang Yunmo's storage ring, taking everything inside, not even leaving her clothes. However, Jiang Yunmo, while negotiating with Ye Liuyun, hadn't noticed the state of her storage ring.
"Boss, the woman's storage ring only contained a fourth-rank Void-tier armor; I found no trace of the fire spirit, nor any other treasure! The storage rings of the two peak experts were the same—each only had a first-rank Void-tier armor, with nothing else discovered. I've taken everything!" the Demon Lion reported to Ye Liuyun.
"Then hide behind me; when the fire spirit appears, I'll help you block its flame power, and you use the wind-thunder fan to help me deal with the fire spirit."
Ye Liuyun also immediately used the slave seal to send a mental transmission to the Demon Lion, telling him to hide behind him so that even if danger arose, he could still recall him in time.
Jiang Yunmo's side was still making a final effort: "Young Master Ye, once the bow is drawn there's no turning back; if we start fighting, you'll likely have no room to maneuver!"
"Please!" Ye Liuyun, however, was utterly unmoved by her threat.
Jiang Yunmo bit her lip and made a decision: "Alright, since Young Master Ye insists on seeing it, we'll have to act."
"If you change your mind, you can tell me anytime!"
She still felt a bit regretful for Ye Liuyun in her heart. Although Ye Liuyun was opposing the dynasty, achieving his level already showed he was a talent.
However, their positions differed; she now represented the Fire Seal Dynasty, so when it was time to act, she had to act and couldn't let other emotions interfere.
As for whether those two fire spirits should kill Ye Liuyun, she didn't know how Jiang Yuantang had instructed them. Anyway, she had already given Ye Liuyun a chance, so there was no need to delay further.
So she immediately took out a fiery-red gourd from the Space World.
"So it was stored in the Space World, no wonder I couldn't find it!" the Demon Lion exclaimed upon seeing the fire gourd taken from the Space World.
"Ready the wind-thunder fan!"
Ye Liuyun merely reminded the Demon Lion, then let those martial cultivators he had released attack.
At this moment Jiang Yunmo also pulled the stopper off the fire gourd, intending to release the fire spirit.
Even before the flames emerged, a surging wave of heat had already spread.
Immediately, a golden and a azure flame surged out together from the fire gourd.
The surrounding temperature shot up, and the military tent beside Ye Liuyun was instantly burned to ash. Ye Liuyun also released his own flame power, shielding himself and the Demon Lion within.
But just then, Jiang Yunmo should have put on that fourth-rank Void-tier armor to defend against the flames, yet she hadn't realized her storage ring was empty.
The two Ninth Layer Summit experts behind her were the same; they had been on guard against Ye Liuyun's sneak attacks and ambushes, hadn't paid attention to their storage rings, and hadn't imagined someone could empty them.
They knew well how powerful that fire spirit was. Being so close to its realm, even if they weren't burned to death, they'd likely be scorched badly.
Meanwhile, the ten Imperial Guard soldiers had already donned their armor.
The twenty martial cultivators Ye Liuyun had arranged had also finished putting on their defensive armor and charged at them.
In her haste, Jiang Yunmo could only take out a spare first-rank Void-tier armor from her Space World and activate a defensive shield to protect herself.
The two Ninth Layer Summit experts hadn't expected items in storage rings to be stolen either; unprepared, they could only temporarily put on ninth-rank True-tier armor to block a bit.
Thus their three defenses were far insufficient. They also hadn't anticipated that before Ye Liuyun could act, they themselves would be in trouble.
Yet the fire gourd kept spewing out surging flames; the surrounding fire had already spread, the golden and azure flames enveloping everyone.
The two colored fire spirits also immediately rushed out of the fire gourd.
As soon as those two fire spirits emerged, the temperature surged again, and everything nearby was burned to ash.
"Retreat!"
The more than twenty martial cultivators Ye Liuyun had dispatched, after just killing a few Imperial Guard soldiers and feeling this terrifying flame power, immediately fled at full speed, even blasting backward at the flames and the escaping Imperial Guard soldiers.
And Jiang Yunmo and the two Ninth Layer Summit experts also immediately retreated, striving to get as far from the fire spirits as possible; if they were far enough, they might still preserve their lives.
"Sure enough, it's a Golden Crow fire spirit!"
Ye Liuyun saw that the golden fire spirit rushing out of the fire gourd was indeed a Golden Crow, while the azure one resembled a blue-faced, fanged demon.
Ye Liuyun didn't care what kind of flame it was; as long as it was yin fire, that was enough.
He merely noticed that these two fire spirits were somewhat stronger than the previous fire phoenix.
