Chapter 3752: Some Reservations

~7 min read 1,252 words

Ye Liuyun felt that because these people could state their identity outright, it showed they didn't want to make a fuss about it and weren't inclined to act.

It should be that Shào Dōnglái and the others worry their strength is insufficient, fearing that after Ye Liuyun's identity is exposed they would be killed to silence them, hence their nervousness.

However, since these people can state it directly, it at least shows they aren't scheming villains and aren't planning to trap him in secret.

Actually they were discussing this. They think Ye Liuyun and his group are decent and want to give them a chance to explain; at least they don't want to use any underhanded tricks.

So Ye Liuyun immediately told Long Nv and the others not to be nervous; he won't fight them.

"Then why did you say you came from the Mortal Realm before?" Xiāo Qíng asked directly.

"I was just trying to hide some aspects of my identity to avoid trouble; I had no ill intent. Moreover, we really are from the lower realm, so it's not a lie," Ye Liuyun said frankly.

"What is your purpose in coming here? To ally with the Dragon Clan and fight the central dynasty together?" Fù Yúntáng asked on behalf of Wàn Xīnghǎi the question he cared most about.

"Whether an alliance is possible depends on the Dragon Clan's attitude. Even if we don't ally, as long as the Dragon Clan doesn't attack us, that's fine!" Ye Liuyun didn't even hide his own goal, appearing very candid.

"So you approached us to attract Wàn Xīnghǎi's attention?" Shào Dōnglái followed up.

"Meeting you was pure coincidence. Even if we never meet Wàn Xīnghǎi, with the ancient dragon pearl and the Dragon Clan members with me, we could still directly request an audience with the Dragon Clan Clan Chief."

Ye Liuyun's answer was indeed frank, which left Shào Dōnglái and the others a bit at a loss.

The few of them immediately used Transmission Voice to discuss.

Previously they thought Ye Liuyun intended to deliberately deceive them.

Xiāo Qíng, while watching Ye Liuyun's expression, sent a Transmission Voice to the others: "It sounds like he's telling the truth. His meeting with us must be a coincidence! Our battle was arranged at the last minute; he couldn't have known in advance."

Wàn Xīnghǎi said, "What he says does make sense; even without the ancient dragon pearl, that true dragon, our Clan Chief would meet them. So they have no reason to lie to me!"

"I think they have no ill intent. Given their status, a bit of concealment is normal, right? Moreover, with their strength, we are nowhere near their level. If they wanted to act, they could already control us!" Fù Yúntáng analyzed.

"I'm afraid he's targeting our family! He has such a big background yet wants to mingle with us; we must be extra cautious," Shào Dōnglái voiced his concern.

Ye Liuyun, knowing they were discussing, said directly: "If I intended to attack you, I wouldn't have needed to help you out of the bind just now; I could have taken the opportunity to seize you."

"Therefore you don't need to worry about your safety; feel free to continue exploring or leave. I just think our meeting is fate, we get along, so we can travel together for a stretch."

His words left the people opposite even more clueless about what to do.

Xiāo Qíng, Jīn Biāo, and Wàn Xīnghǎi leaned toward trusting Ye Liuyun and wanted to keep exploring together. Shào Dōnglái and Fù Yúntáng were uneasy about Ye Liuyun causing trouble in the East and targeting their family, and didn't want further contact.

After all, the East is still under the central dynasty's jurisdiction; Ye Liuyun is a dangerous rebel here. If they mingle with him, they could bring disaster to their family.

At that moment, Wàn Xīnghǎi suddenly asked Ye Liuyun: "What you said earlier, that there are Dragon Clan members in your Space World— is that true?"

"Yes!" Ye Liuyun confirmed.

"You're only at the Taixu Seventh Layer, and your Space World can contain the Dragon Clan?" Fù Yúntáng immediately pinpointed the issue.

Ye Liuyun smiled: "Everyone has secrets, don't they?"

Then he looked at Wàn Xīnghǎi: "The Dragon Breath I carry was given to me by the Dragon Clan Clan Chief

. Though it's not powerful for you, you should be able to feel it, right?"

Wàn Xīnghǎi nodded at the words. He had long sensed the Dragon Clan on Ye Liuyun, but thought it came from Long Nv.

"I can sense the Dragon Breath, but how can I prove it was given by the Dragon Clan Clan Chief?" Wàn Xīnghǎi asked.

Ye Liuyun thought it over and thought he could let him meet the Dragon Clan Clan Chief. However, the Dragon Clan in his Space World haven't reached the Taixu realm, so they can't be released.

He told Wàn Xīnghǎi, "The best proof is for you to see with your own eyes. But my Dragon Clan friends haven't reached the Taixu realm, so they can't exit. You'd have to enter my Space World and look yourself."

Before Wàn Xīnghǎi could decide, Shào Dōnglái spoke up to warn him: "That's not allowed! If he controls you inside, or uses illusion techniques, you still wouldn't be able to tell."

Ye Liuyun heard that and spread his hands.

"At the moment I really have no good way to prove it!"

In fact, he didn't want these people to enter his Space World.

Thus, the conversation on both sides fell into a stalemate.

Ye Liuyun waited a while, seeing they were motionless, thought they couldn't stay stuck, and said: "Then you can think here at your leisure; we'll go ahead for a bit."

The few were stunned, but Jīn Biāo nodded.

"Alright, you go first!"

So Ye Liuyun led his companions to continue treasure hunting, while the others looked at Jīn Biāo.

"Why are you looking at me? We can't just stand here forever, can we?"

The other few had nothing to say.

After Ye Liuyun walked away, Wàn Xīnghǎi suddenly said: "I'll go catch up with them. Since they're heading to the Dragon Clan, they shouldn't harm me!"

He thought Long Nv wouldn't deceive him, being of the same kind. Moreover, he knew the ancient dragon pearl was crucial and didn't want to miss out with Ye Liuyun's group.

"Then I'll go with you; I don't feel comfortable sending you alone!" Jīn Biāo, carrying a black iron staff, stood beside him.

"I'll go too; I think they're telling the truth!" Xiāo Qíng stepped forward.

Though she's a woman, she acts more casually. She has been a Mercenary, so she has more experience dealing with people. For a Mercenary, newcomers don't always speak truthfully, so Ye Liuyun hiding his identity is quite normal.

At this point Shào Dōnglái spoke: "I received a message from the family ordering us to monitor him; they'll send people to capture Ye Liuyun. I have no say in this. Following him could be dangerous."

In fact he had already received the message earlier, but he still felt the conversation with Ye Liuyun went well and wanted to give them a break.

Moreover, Ye Liuyun had just rescued them from the Yin Soul's grasp. So he directly clarified his identity just to warn them to stay away. Recently the transcoding is severe, giving us more motivation, faster updates, please click to exit reading mode. Thank you.
