Chapter 372: Both Righteous and Evil

Ye Liuyun himself also continuously familiarizes himself with the power of Yuan Dan Sixfold, the attacks of Golden Pupil, the Blade‑Intent Seed and his space‑crossing ability, and occasionally thinks of practicing Divine Dragon Claw and Air‑Soaring Finger.

After Bai Hu obtained the prestige‑rank bone spear, he was like a tiger with added wings, almost able to fight across the Fourth Realm. The others now can fight across two or three layers, and their combat experience has become very rich.

These people each have fought countless battles, and unconsciously they all exude an iron‑blooded, killing aura. Even the several women appear heroic.

Just as Ye Liuyun and his group were approaching the next Altar, his Divine Sense suddenly spotted some women in black in the distance.

"Su Miaoyin of the Demon Sound Hall?" Ye Liuyun thought to himself. "If the Demon Sound Hall has allied with the Corpse Demon, then this is a perfect chance to eliminate them."

Thus his Golden Pupil constantly monitors those Demon Sound Hall women. But Ye Liuyun finds that the people from Demon Sound Hall—whether Corpse Demon or Demon Cultivator—are all killed on sight, with decisive slaughter, and the battle traces are later concealed.

"What's going on?" Ye Liuyun was a bit puzzled. "Isn't the Demon Sound Hall on the Demon Cultivator side?"

At that moment, an Elder of the Alliance who is a First Layer of the Heavenly Gang Realm rushed toward Ye Liuyun, accompanied by some Yuan Dan Realm disciples. Their arrival also caught the attention of the Demon Sound Hall crowd, who immediately followed.

Ye Liuyun sensed hostility on these people, inexplicably. The Alliance should be his own people!

The Heavenly Gang Elder, upon arriving, fixed his gaze on Ye Liuyun.

"You are Ye Liuyun!" He examined Ye Liuyun's realm, then disdainfully curled his lip.

And more than a dozen people behind him, eager to try, shouted that they wanted to fight Ye Liuyun.

"Ye Liuyun, don't think that because we wiped out the Jin Family that we Central Region people are afraid of you! Dare you not use your Kuailei to fight us?"

"Fine, the twelve of us are Central Region Alliance members ranked on the Holy List. Dare you accept the challenge? If not, kneel and admit your mistake!"

"So you're only at Yuan Dan Sixfold, it seems you're only famous because of your Kuailei! I don't even feel like striking…"

They blustered arrogantly, full of swagger.

At this moment, Su Miaoyin and others also followed, and upon seeing the scene, they watched the spectacle.

These Alliance members, upon seeing their attire, recognized them as Demon Cultivators and instantly grew nervous.

Su Miaoyin deliberately greeted Ye Liuyun: "Young Master Ye, I didn't expect we'd meet again! Since our parting at the East Sea, I haven't had a chance to chat properly with you! I truly missed you!"

She deliberately set a trap for Ye Liuyun, revenge for him snatching items from her at the auction.

The Heavenly Gang Elder immediately seized the opportunity to target Ye Liuyun.

"Ye Liuyun! As an Alliance member, you colluded with Demon Cultivators? Confess and submit!"

"A bunch of idiots!" Ye Liuyun muttered internally, then sarcastically said, "Since you claim such a sense of justice, why don't you act? Weren't you just shouting joyfully one by one earlier? Why do you wilt at the sight of Demon Cultivators? Or do you only bully your own?"

"Hmph! You think you can trick us into dealing with Demon Cultivators, think again! Ye Liuyun, we will report your collusion with Demon Cultivators to the Alliance truthfully! Just wait for your punishment!" The Heavenly Gang Elder only threatened Ye Liuyun, but dared not strike Su Miaoyin and the others.

The other disciples also dared not act against Demon Cultivators, but all crowded Ye Liuyun.

"Ye Liuyun, if you don't dare act, just kneel and beg for mercy! No more empty words!"

"Fine. If it weren't for your Kuailei, you would be nothing at all!"

Ye Liuyun ignored them, instead looked at Su Miaoyin: "Miss Su Miaoyin, hope you're well! Since we missed a proper chat last time, why not treat this as a chance encounter, sit down and share some grilled meat?"

He was curious about what Su Miaoyin and her group intended, but the Alliance idiots before him were of no interest. They were just fame‑hungry people hoping to make a name by beating him, and Ye Liuyun was too lazy to bother.

"Fine!" Su Miaoyin didn't care about them. "Since Young Master Ye extends such a generous invitation, I shall gladly accept!"

Saying that, she glided forward gracefully, walking toward Ye Liuyun and his group.

Ye Liuyun immediately produced plenty of grilled meat and wine dishes, and began to host them. "It's a bit simple, but sisters, please don't mind!"

"No problem! In a place like this, being able to eat is already good enough!" Su Miaoyin generously led her companions to sit down on the spot.

This scene made the Alliance members even more furious, and they began to berate Ye Liuyun.

"You bunch of idiots, if you want to fight, act now; if not, get the hell out! Your clamor is deafening!" Ye Liuyun didn't even bother to look at them.

"How arrogant! Ye Liuyun, I am Liu Tianxin, a disciple of the Liu Clan from the Central Region, ranked fifty‑sixth on the Holy List, and I formally challenge you." He then summoned a Metal Puppet as a referee.

The Metal Puppet stared at Ye Liuyun, awaiting his reply.

"Are you all here to challenge me?" Ye Liuyun looked at them and asked.

"Exactly! We want all Alliance members to see your true face! Apart from the Kuailei, you are nothing!"

"Ugh! Challenge you? You don't deserve it! I'm nineteenth on the Holy List! I'm only here to see how you get exposed when others beat you!" a young disciple sneered.

Ye Liuyun ignored him and said to the Metal Puppet, "I've accepted all of these people's challenges. As for those who haven't challenged me, I will challenge them as well, including that Heavenly Gang Elder. I can take them all on together, okay?"

"Fine!" the Metal Puppet replied directly.

"That kid must have gone mad, right?"

"He probably wants to kill himself."

"Hahaha! That's the funniest joke I've ever heard…"

The young men opposite burst into laughter at Ye Liuyun's words, and even the Heavenly Gang Elder twitched his beard and gave a slight smile.

"Fine! The challenge begins!"

Ye Liuyun said little, directly launching a Spiritual Soul Attack; the Thunder Fire Domain enveloped them all, and his Golden Pupil activated, releasing thunder fire to blast them one by one, annihilating both body and spirit.

After more than ten breaths, only a pile of Storage Rings and weapons remained on the ground.

Ru Yue ran over, collected them one by one, and handed them to Wu Qingcheng.

"Congratulations! Your ranking on the Holy List is nineteenth!" the Metal Puppet confirmed. Then it said to Ye Liuyun, "An Alliance Elder asks you, what's the story behind your collusion with Demon Cultivators?"

"Whoever asked, go investigate themselves!" Ye Liuyun said indifferently.

"If you don't explain, the Alliance may issue an unfavorable ruling against you!" the Metal Puppet continued.

"A righteous man fears no crooked shadow! Just take that phrase back with you!" Ye Liuyun tossed out casually, then focused on grilling the meat.

The puppet kept babbling, "I've already recorded that you were with Demon Cultivators. Anything else you need to explain?"

"You're as stupid as those people I just killed. Stop stalling me, it makes me look stupid too! Get lost!" Ye Liuyun shouted.

【55】 The Metal Puppet didn't argue and vanished on the spot.

That Metal Puppet also didn't argue, and vanished instantly on the spot.
