Chapter 3318: Voluntary Negotiation

Xuan Yuan Ling and Wu Qingcheng and several other women were all laughing at Ye Liuyun.

But they all knew that this matter didn't count if they said so; it had to be decided by Ye Liuyun. These female soldiers also amount to ten thousand high‑end combat power, but they also require resources and time to cultivate.

At this moment, Liang Xue sent a Transmission Voice to Ye Liuyun: "If you want to accept them, accept them all; don't leave Moon Ying alone. Otherwise, accept none."

Wu Qingcheng also sent a Transmission Voice: "It seems Ye Tiandao really likes taking these female soldiers."

Although they were displeased that someone was offering women to Ye Liuyun, they all knew that these ten thousand female soldiers were more than just women, and Ye Liuyun certainly would not put these ten thousand women into a harem.

So they only gave Ye Liuyun some advice, letting him weigh the pros and cons himself.

Ye Liuyun immediately composed himself and said to Yue Tianyang: "Moon Leader, this proposal is too sudden; let me consider it first. Do you have any other proposals? You can state them together and we will listen."

After speaking, Ye Liuyun promptly asked Ye Tiandao, Xiao Yunfang, and Meng Qingyin among others how many resources and how much time it would roughly take to train these ten thousand female soldiers, and whether it was worthwhile.

Yue Tianyang also thought Ye Liuyun should be given some time to consider, and immediately continued: "I see that among your great army almost all are male soldiers, so you probably need women and maidens. In our several tribes the number of women is abundant, and their cultivation levels are not too low."

Therefore these Clan Chiefs want to trade women for resources. I'm just mediating; Ye Leader doesn't need to worry, the soldiers can choose the women themselves and negotiate what resources to exchange. As long as Ye Leader agrees, that's all.

After hearing her finish, Ye Liuyun's first reaction was that it was similar to slave trading. But he also thought that both sides were voluntary and the price was negotiated, which made it different from slave trade.

So he handed the decision over to Yu Xiaofeng. Yu Xiaofeng thought for a moment and also felt the soldiers should decide themselves, so he agreed and would convey it for them. Whether the soldiers go or not is their own business.

But they didn't expect that, aside from the Demon Race legion, the other soldiers were all very eager; even if they didn't want to exchange for women, they would still join in to see the conditions.

So Ye Liuyun also released the Death Legion, letting them choose for themselves. The tribal Clan Chiefs, outside the main camp, lined up the tribal women in rows, allowing both sides to negotiate, and they helped finalize the Divine Soul Contract.

However, because the locals demanded very little resources and there were many male soldiers, the women they brought were soon insufficient. Yue Tianyang immediately sent someone to inform other tribes that any who wish to trade resources can continue sending women here.

They only tried this idea, not expecting such good results. Thus each tribe could exchange for many cultivation methods, pills, and treasures.

After consulting Ye Tiandao, the refinery masters, and others, Ye Liuyun decided to accept this ten thousand combat power, appointing Ye Tiandao as Leader, Moon Ying as Deputy Leader, to command the ten thousand female soldiers.

After all, these female soldiers have strong Bloodline Power, high cultivation levels, learn new things quickly, and are easy to train.

Then Ye Liuyun selected one person each from the Formation Masters, refinery masters, and Alchemists to stay voluntarily.

Ye Liuyun promised them to stay here for ten years, helping to train some Alchemists, refinery masters, and Formation Masters, after which they would be freed. Moreover, the resources for Bloodline cultivation here are abundant, so they can also increase their Bloodline Power; it's not without gain.

As for the alchemy, refinement, and formation materials they need, in the future Yue Tianyang can trade them with Xuan Yuan Ling using the Teleportation Array Disc.

These three Alchemists, refinery masters, and Formation Masters exchanged for a thousand female soldiers and their mounts.

The remaining nine thousand soldiers and mounts, Ye Liuyun directly converted their combat power together with Kuailei's combat power, giving Yue Tianyang one thousand True Ninth Grade and one thousand True Eighth Grade Kuailei.

Those two thousand Kuailei, after Yue Tianyang returned, were equipped with Void‑grade armor and weapons, making their combat power even more terrifying, enough to defeat twenty thousand guardian warriors.

After accepting the ten thousand female soldiers, Ye Liuyun immediately had his clone usher them into the Space World, letting Ye Tiandao and others lead them to begin cultivation and improvement. All ten thousand are newcomers, and he still has to train them from scratch.

Yue Tianyang, after signing contracts with the Formation Masters, refinery masters, and Alchemists, bid farewell to Ye Liuyun, took them and those Kuailei back, and assigned them disciples.

As for the matter of soldiers outside the camp exchanging resources for women, they did not intervene, leaving the Clan Chiefs and soldiers to handle it themselves.

Outside the camp, the bustle lasted half a month, and people gradually thinned. The resource‑senders from Yue Tianyang's side also arrived at the camp; after both sides tallied the resources, Ye Liuyun prepared to depart.

Yu Xiaofeng also gave the soldiers a final day to prepare, then the whole force would evacuate.

One day later, Ye Liuyun's entire army was pulled into the Space World, and after taking away this Xingqiu that belonged to them, they traversed the void and completely left the Burning Blood Star System.

After Ye Liuyun left, he immediately summoned Yue Hong, asking her to help boost Bloodline Power. But as soon as he appeared, the women surrounded him.

"Our King Ye now has ten thousand more women; I wonder how he'll arrange them?" a woman directly teased Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun immediately understood that the women were looking for an opening, so he stopped mentioning cultivation and focused on chatting with them.

The women pulled him down, ate a meal with him, chatted for a while, and seeing his decent behavior, finally let him go cultivate.

"You have so many women; it's a huge distraction from cultivation!" Yue Hong pretended to be all grown‑up, reminding Ye Liuyun, leaving him both amused and embarrassed.

But once he started cultivating, Ye Liuyun no longer thought about other matters.

Yue Hong's effect on Bloodline condensation truly shocked Ye Liuyun. According to Yue Hong, his current Bloodline concentration requires at least three condensations before it can be considered fairly solid.

Yet after just this first condensation, Ye Liuyun's Bloodline was already compressed by a factor of two, better than the result of a year of his own cultivation.

"This effect is amazing!" Ye Liuyun couldn't help praising Yue Hong.

"Of course, swapping me over, you won't lose a thing!"

Yue Hong also pretended, then extended a small hand, asking Ye Liuyun for the Primordial Power that carries Bloodline Power.

"You must first give me resources to recover, then I can help your clone condense its Bloodline!"

Ye Liuyun immediately produced a blood‑colored Primordial Power and handed it to her: "You absorb once; how much Bloodline Power do you need to absorb?"

Yue Hong gave Ye Liuyun a blank stare: "If you don't understand, ask; don't guess wildly. Who said I'm going to absorb? I'm like Sister Ye Ling; although I also need to absorb, I also release Bloodline Power, so in the end you won't lose anything!"

After speaking, she took the blood‑colored Primordial Power and ran off to find Ye Ling.
