Chapter 3590: Easy Capture
"That one runs fast enough!" Li Qianjiao, though curious, still followed Ye Liuyun's words, dropped a drop of blood, letting the Evergreen Vine recognize its master.
"This vine is called Evergreen Vine. From now on you can raise it slowly; when it grows strong, it will help you fight!" Ye Liuyun also tried to talk about other things to distract her.
"Is this a gift for me? Do you have one yourself?"
Li Qianjiao had just witnessed the power of this Evergreen Vine and knew it could easily hunt even an Eighth Realm Monster Beast. That Monster Beast didn't even snap a single vine of it.
So she thought it was a good thing, but didn't expect Ye Liuyun to give it to her directly.
"I kept one too!" Ye Liuyun this time actually told the truth.
"Then thank you! Following you really has benefits!" Li Qianjiao said with a smile.
The two were chatting idly, and the Martial Cultivators who were pursuing them also came after them.
"Come with me!" Ye Liuyun led Li Qianjiao to the foot of a great mountain, carved a Cave in the rocks, and had Qiong Qi set up a Defense Array.
"Are we going to hide here? How long should we stay?" Li Qianjiao asked curiously.
"Yes, hide for a while, then hunt them once they enter the dense forest!" Ye Liuyun said deliberately.
While Qiong Qi was setting the Formation, Ye Liuyun told him his true purpose: to use Time Power to capture those Martial Cultivators, but he didn't want Li Qianjiao to know about his special ability.
Qiong Qi quickly finished the Formation, then stayed inside it to accompany Li Qianjiao. Ye Liuyun said he would go out to scout the situation and left the Cave.
Once he exited the Cave, he again used Time Power to freeze time.
That squad of Martial Cultivators was still in the Xingkong and hadn't dispersed, making it perfect for Ye Liuyun to capture them.
He flew over and planted Slave Seals on them one by one, performing Soul Search on the leading Martial Cultivator.
"Oh? There are still so many people lurking outside! And this time they even brought treasure, plus a poison‑using Demon Cultivator; their preparation is quite thorough!"
After Ye Liuyun finished gathering information and controlled all those people, he restored the Time Flow Speed.
Confronted with Ye Liuyun, these people were stunned, never expecting to be captured so easily in one fell swoop. Though each wondered how they were controlled, they could now only salute Ye Liuyun and acknowledge him as master.
"Fine, hand over the treasure!" Ye Liuyun wasn't polite and demanded the items outright.
The leading Martial Cultivator, from his Space World, produced a Blood Mist Formation Flag. This flag is a ninth‑rank ethereal treasure, and its trap can imprison over a thousand people.
Moreover, the most formidable part is the blood mist within the Formation, which can instantly melt a person into pus and blood; its power is tremendous.
After Ye Liuyun seized it, he forced those people to hand over their cultivation resources, then sent a few of the weakest Martial Cultivators to gather wood‑elemental power on this Xingqiu.
Meanwhile, the poison‑using Demon Cultivator, whom Ye Liuyun found too ruthless for killing too many innocents, was directly fed to the newly captured Evergreen Vine.
After the others went, some were killed by the local Monster Beast or plants, while others luckily obtained some wood‑elemental Primordial Power.
"Not bad!" Ye Liuyun gathered the Primordial Power, and the people were directly pulled into the Space World.
That segment of vine, after fully absorbing that Martial Cultivator, could immediately extend a branch that could wrap a person several times, though it couldn't fully encircle them yet.
Ye Liuyun, having nothing else to do and unable to explain an early return, took it to capture a few more Monster Beasts, let it absorb them slowly, and then returned to the Cave.
When he got back, Li Qianjiao immediately approached: "How's it going?"
"Most of them have been subdued! I used the dense forest to hide my form, first controlled a portion of them, then shapeshifted into their own people to control them all! Unfortunately a few died!" Ye Liuyun casually fabricated.
"That many, and you controlled them all?" Li Qianjiao was both astonished by Ye Liuyun's speed and impressed by his strength.
"Yeah, their defensive awareness is just weaker!" Ye Liuyun estimated that the time difference wasn't much; he could only say the operation went smoothly.
"You took them all out by yourself; it makes me feel like I'm useless!" Li Qianjiao didn't doubt him, but felt that to Ye Liuyun she was essentially dispensable.
"How could that be? Everyone has their own strengths, just different directions. Let's go; I've finished the mission on this Xingqiu, so we won't claim this planet. Otherwise we'd waste time fighting the plants here." Ye Liuyun suggested.
He felt he lacked the skills for that, so he didn't want to claim this planet.
"Fine." Li Qianjiao wasn't greedy, sharing Ye Liuyun's view.
"Don't go, it's such a pity to leave like this; isn't Fire Flame Power just right to suppress the plants here?" Qiong Qi was somewhat reluctant.
"Fire Flame Power can suppress, but if everything burns out, the Xingqiu is useless. Moreover, the plants here aren't simple; some aren't afraid of fire and will fight us fiercely when cornered. These things lack Divine Sense, and at a crucial moment I couldn't protect you!" Ye Liuyun explained.
"Sigh, you kid have no future, just content with small comforts!" Qiong Qi said helplessly.
It also knew that with its own strength it certainly couldn't handle the strong ones on this Xingqiu. Since Ye Liuyun didn't act, it could only withdraw together.
And until then, the Duanmu Hall personnel waiting outside were unaware that everyone inside had been wiped out. Their control over subordinates is usually the helmsman over subordinates, not including those helmsmen.
So even though those people were taken down in one fell swoop by Ye Liuyun, they didn't notice anything unusual. Moreover, he acted so quickly that they had no chance to relay any messages, which was beyond their expectations.
The next planet Ye Liuyun and his group rushed toward was the metallic Xingqiu.
This time Ye Liuyun released Bai Hu to serve as the main combat force. However, Bai Hu's strength was much weaker, and when facing many Monster Beasts, it struggled to suppress opponents solely with its bloodline.
Ye Liuyun and Li Qianjiao also joined in, assisting Bai Hu in battle.
The Demon Slaying Sword finally found a chance to test its blade. The Monster Beasts here, whose physical bodies largely surpass Bai Hu, were still cut one by one, all cleaved, even against their sharp fangs and claws.
For defending against these Monster Beasts, he delegated it as much as possible to the War God Armor, letting it be further tempered.
Li Qianjiao could only rely on the edge of her weapon and armor to barely match Monster Beasts of the same realm; against these physically strong, fang‑and‑claw sharp Monster Beasts, she had no advantage.
So later, Ye Liuyun released the Nine‑Headed Demon Dragon, Chi Lian, Demon Lion, Shi Yuan, and two Xuanwu Monster Beasts, letting them all join the fight,
