Chapter 3481: Black and White Impermanence
Black Impermanence Wu Mengyu also stood up then, using a slightly milder tone to say to Ye Liuyun: "The Thousand Spirits Sect isn't as petty as you imagine, and the Holy Son wouldn't casually speak up for just anyone!"
However, the Holy Son values talent and merely wishes to promote you a bit. Since you don't want to serve the Holy Son, we certainly won't force you, nor will we use force against you because of this.
As for those disciples, the Holy Son merely felt compassion, thinking the punishment had been enough; their crime didn't warrant making them your slaves forever.
Of course, since you haven't violated sect rules, you have the right to decide their fate. But whether to release them should be up to Chen Yueying, not you, right?
Wu Mengyu's words dispelled Ye Liuyun's suspicions, and even made the disciples present think the Holy Son had done well; if Ye Liuyun persisted, he would appear not only ungrateful but also petty.
Moreover, she threw the matter back to Chen Yueying instead of letting Ye Liuyun decide, letting them themselves become embarrassed.
"'This woman is not simple at all; not only is she strong, but her handling of affairs and speech is flawless!' Ye Liuyun admired Black Impermanence Wu Mengyu in his heart."
"'What should we do?' Chen Yueying indeed didn't know how to handle it. If it were someone she captured, she would release them immediately. But now involving Ye Liuyun, she dares not act on her own, fearing Ye Liuyun would be displeased."
"'Just say we never intended to enslave them long-term; we'll release them after taking them on a few tasks. Let the Holy Son rest easy!' M.."
Ye Liuyun also used transmission voice to tell Chen Yueying. This would solve the problem without releasing them on the spot, which would look like fear of the Holy Son.
Chen Yueying immediately followed Ye Liuyun's intention, speaking politely, at least appearing to give the Holy Son and Black and White Impermanence plenty of face.
Black and White Impermanence had nothing more to say. If they kept pressing, they'd have to resort to force. After all, they were using superior cultivation to oppress others in public; spreading that would harm the Holy Son's image. So she immediately took Black Impermanence and left.
Yu Lianhao still puzzled asked Wu Mengyu: 'Are we just leaving like that? How will we explain to the Holy Son when we return? If that brat gets killed outside, those people probably can't be saved either, and we'll have lost face for nothing!'
Wu Mengyu replied via transmission voice: 'Of course we can't just go back and report like that! Even if those people died, it wouldn't matter, but if they can't be saved, it would show the Holy Son's words lack force, which would make him lose face.'
We also can't let this brat toy with us for nothing. He's recently gathered a lot of resources; the Holy Son sent us here, naturally intending to help us, so how could we let our trip be wasted?
"'You mean, if the open way won't work, we'll go covert?' Yu Lianhao also asked via transmission voice."
Wu Mengyu gave him a sideways glance, thinking he was rather stupid.
"'Of course! Otherwise, how could we loot his resources in public? At most we could just abduct people. Are those few nobodies worth us making a move openly?'"
Yu Lianhao nodded repeatedly upon hearing that: 'You really have a plan! Then we'll follow them and strike after dark!'
Wu Mengyu sighed in her heart: 'This idiot, once outside the sect we could act as long as no one's around—why wait for night? Do you think they won't recognize us in the dark?'
However, she didn't say those words, merely muttered to herself inwardly, then took Yu Lianhao around in a circle, left the sect, and chased after Ye Liuyun and the others.
Ye Liuyun also knew this was only a temporary fix. Those people are usually arrogant and certainly won't let him off easily. Moreover, by refusing to ally with the Holy Son, he has become the Holy Son's enemy.
He guessed the Holy Son would surely retaliate against him in passing, then rescue the people as well, to show that the Thousand Spirits Sect has experts and won't let a mere guard take away the disciples.
If he didn't return those disciples, he'd be opposing not only the Holy Son but also the Thousand Spirits Sect. So he will certainly return them and won't make Chen Yueying embarrassed.
However, he doesn't want to, in the arrogance of Black and White Impermanence's att
down to lower his head, that's all.
Release is possible, but only when he's in a good mood.
"'Let's also leave quickly!' Ye Liuyun also sent a transmission voice to the others, leading everyone to immediately leave the sect and board Chen Yueying's flying boat."
"'What a pity, we didn't manage to hit them!'"
Xiong Tianchuan also felt a bit regretful. He actually really wanted to exchange a few moves with Black and White Impermanence to see just how big the gap was.
"'Don't rush, they won't let us go. I estimate that once we reach a deserted place, they'll catch up and attack—get ready for battle!'"
Ye Liuyun then reminded them not to be careless.
"'Then we shouldn't keep these people!' Chen Yueying also advised Ye Liuyun."
Ye Liuyun also nodded: 'They will definitely be released. But now it's no longer about these people; rather, Black and White Impermanence will surely act against us. Then it will become a matter between us and the Holy Son, and also between me and the Thousand Spirits Sect.'
"'Is it that serious? Then you shouldn't fight Black and White Impermanence to the death; why not just hand the people over to them?' Chen Yueying also worried that Ye Liuyun would provoke the Holy Son and the sect."
"'How could it be that simple!' Ye Liuyun said helplessly: 'These people are used to being above others; how could they lose to me? I reckon some elders in your sect think the same way. They probably now must kill me no matter what!'"
Chen Yueying also sighed: 'If you agreed to join the sect under the Holy Son, that would be fine. Then you'd be a sect disciple, and they wouldn't target you; they might even nurture you.'
Xiong Tianchuan then interjected: 'Joining the sect would mean becoming that Holy Son's dog! If the boss agrees, I won't follow him!'
Ye Liuyun also confirmed: 'Good! Joining the sect openly is fine, but letting me be lower than the Holy Son is absolutely impossible!'
"'The Holy Son's status in the sect is naturally higher than that of ordinary disciples!' Chen Yueying said helplessly."
"'That's a different matter! Their way of inviting me is wrong!' Ye Liuyun explained."
Xiong Tianchuan also nodded and said: 'Boss, I support you!'
"'Alright, you two both have points, that's fine! Anyway I'm not interfering; I came out exploring with you, so I'll just follow your arrangements!' Chen Yueying also knew their tempers, so she simply stopped advising."
She then proposed: 'Let me go cultivate inside your Space World? If I stay I can't beat them anyway, and it would spare you from having to protect me.'
"'Good!' Ye Liuyun agreed, so as not to risk hurting her if a fight broke out later."
He also had Chen Yueying put away the flying boat and replace it with the sixth-grade flying boat he had previously seized.
His divine sense had already detected many flying boats ahead and behind, staring at them in the starry sky; Black and White Impermanence also launched their flying boats now, seeking to catch up.
