Chapter 3652: Inciting Public Outrage

Some of the nobles watching from outside, upon seeing Ye Liuyun again send people to kill the other squads, couldn't help shouting curses, all worrying about their own offspring.

There were originally some people who had a grudge against Chen Haisheng; now that their family's heirs can survive, they all became angry.

But Chen Haisheng couldn't open the Secret Realm, so they could only curse, powerless. In the end, those people were all slain by those Ye Liuyun had sent; none escaped.

Thus Ye Liuyun immediately incited the public anger of the Western Region nobles; many whose offspring were killed by Ye Liuyun promptly left the Royal Mansion, returned to actively contact each other, preparing to eliminate Ye Liuyun.

Only Marquis Jingyu, believing his own strength great and his eldest son already a marquis, thought he could kill Ye Liuyun without cooperating with anyone.

Inside the Royal Mansion, Chen Haisheng at this moment no longer cared about the battle inside the Secret Realm. He knew Ye Liuyun was unquestionably victorious, so he began to allocate personnel to scout each family's movements, preparing intelligence for actions against Ye Liuyun.

Chen Yueying had guarded here for over twenty days and was tired; seeing no more danger in the Secret Realm, she immediately returned to her residence to cultivate.

The demon concubine, for her safety, also etched some Formations with runes around her Cultivation Room, and with Kuailei stationed day and night outside, daring not to relax for a moment.

After Ye Liuyun seized control of the Secret Realm, he suddenly discovered that his Space World could now be opened at will.

However, he did not reveal this; instead he directly found a Cave to hide in, lest outsiders notice he could return to the Space World to cultivate.

Then he returned to his Space World to cultivate in peace, also avoiding idleness these days. The few Monster Beasts with him naturally followed him into the Cave to cultivate, and were also drawn into the Space World.

Outside the Cave, Gu Changhong and others guarded the outside with those Martial Cultivators.

Ye Liuyun first ransacked the Storage Ring, pulling all the loot into the Space World, then absorbed the Bloodline Power of Xue Wu Hen from the Sea of Consciousness, using that Bloodline Power to refine three drops of pure blood.

Then he went to discuss the Kuailei army with Sun Que. Upon learning that Ye Liuyun had captured a large number of Martial Cultivators, Sun Que no longer worried about lacking powerful Souls.

However, those Souls still require special refinement to bind more tightly with the Kuailei, so some Divine Soul Power is lost. After refinement, the Kuailei's realm will be one layer lower.

It was then that Ye Liuyun understood why Sun Que insisted on seeking Kuailei with strong Divine Soul Power.

Afterwards, Sun Que continued forging Kuailei, while Ye Liuyun returned to the Space World, absorbing the Golden Egg's energy to cultivate, and continuously replenishing the Chaos Azure Lotus with energy.

This time he still relied on the Chaos Azure Lotus to defeat Li Yuan; otherwise he truly would not be Li Yuan's match.

"Indeed there are mountains beyond mountains, people beyond people. Yet someone can skillfully wield Spatial Power!"

He sighed inwardly, feeling a sense of pressure.

Lately he has relied on the Chaos Azure Lotus and talismans in battle too often; he must hurry to strengthen his own power.

The Golden Egg's energy quickly propelled his realm to break through to Taixu Liu Chong. Ye Liuyun no longer suppressed himself; he directly broke through, then used the Condensed Dew Divine Core to fill the Divine Core vacancy left by the breakthrough.

Afterward he recharged the Golden Egg, allowing it to recover and then refine a Soul Source. This time he entered the Secret Realm, harvesting a substantial amount of Divine Soul Power.

Just the Soul Power of that Underworld God alone was enough to let him remake a Soul Source, though it requires time. Now time is short, so he can only use the Golden Egg's energy to accelerate.

While seven days passed outside, he had seventy days inside the Space World, just enough to condense a Soul Source, restoring his Divine Soul Power to the state before he divided it among his clones.

His clone, since entering the Secret Realm, has also been cultivating Divine Soul Power, using the Golden Egg to accelerate; thus the clone's Divine Soul Power, though not as strong as the original, possesses three powerful Soul Sources, at least surpassing ordinary Ninth Realm Martial Cultivators.

"The rest can be cultivated slowly!"

Time was about right, so Ye Liuyun halted cultivation, led Lei Ming and other Monster Beasts out of the Cave for a barbecue break, awaiting departure from the Secret Realm.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun was destined to be the top winner of this martial matchmaking tournament; no one could surpass him.

Inside the Grand Hall of the Royal Mansion, most people had already left. The remaining ones, seeing Ye Liuyun no longer killing or allowing the ferocious beasts to attack them, felt relieved.

Li Yuan also stopped pursuing Ye Liuyun; instead he released the ferocious beasts he controlled, and, with six Kuailei, prepared to leave the Secret Realm.

Outside the Royal Mansion, numerous spies of major powers had already gathered, waiting for Ye Liuyun to emerge. Even many Martial Cultivators and Mercenaries teamed up to storm the residence where Ye Liuyun had been, trying every method to break the Formation, intending to ambush Ye Liuyun inside.

Outside Xingqiu, five warships carrying a hundred thousand troops are already battle‑ready in the Xingkong.

Now everyone in the Western Region knows a turmoil is about to erupt. The one who sparked this unrest turns out to be the same person who caused the previous uproar in the Western Region.

Ye Liuyun's name spread again throughout the Western Region.

Jing Tao's elder brother Jing Yuan, at this moment, did not follow Marquis Jingyu into battle: "Father is busy leading troops to encircle Ye Liuyun; that kid is extremely cunning— the two marquises previously dispatched large armies to intercept him, but he escaped."

"Since he is already destined to be the Prince Consort of the Heavenly King, perhaps I should meddle with the princess; maybe I can gain more benefits from it!"

This Jing Yuan, using some despicable schemes, secured the Sword‑holding Marquis position for himself, obtained his own Xingqiu and army, and later was still unsatisfied with the marquisate.

Although outwardly he cooperated with his father, claiming to help his father seize the throne, secretly he was also building his own power.

Therefore he cared little about avenging his brother, even feeling that his second brother's death gave him one less rival.

And this time he did not cooperate with Marquis Jingyu in sending troops, but chose to act covertly against the princess, hoping to lure Ye Liuyun to appear.

"Act immediately!" Before the contest between Ye Liuyun and others concluded, he had already dispatched elite from his mansion to capture Chen Yueying.

But he did not expect that Chen Yueying's residence not only had layers upon layers of Formations, but also great power, and moreover a demon concubine guarded it with several Kuailei. These Kuailei also possessed Souls, making them highly agile in combat, not merely obeying blind orders.

Thus the people he sent went out in batches, never to return.

"Useless, a bunch of useless!" Jing Yuan was furious at his subordinates' repeated defeats.

Just as he felt helpless, the Jing family, backed by the Central Dynasty—specifically the Mu family where his mother belongs—sent reinforcements, and they were all strong ones of the Cave Heaven Realm.
