Chapter 3809: Bandit Leader

Ye Liuyun, leading the group, was eating happily when Dream Family Elder suddenly reported again, saying that bandits were blocking the road ahead.

"It's still the same group of bandits as last time; they're using the same emblem!" Dream Family Elder said.

"Alright, I'll lead people to deal with them then!" Ye Liuyun immediately agreed, asking the Dream Family to nudge the Flying Boat forward a bit.

"This time, capture a bandit leader and ask how they got our emblem," Lei Ming suggested.

"Good! They must have sent stronger people this time; we can capture them and ask," Ye Liuyun also thought the situation was too coincidental.

At that moment, aboard the opposing bandits' Warship, a swaggering bandit leader was instructing his subordinates.

"Since you all have decided to follow me, you must obey the rules from now on. My boss is also your boss. Anyone who dares disrespect the boss... or anyone near the boss, I'll be the first to smash their skulls."

"Yes!" The bandits under him each answered obediently.

The boss they referred to as "the boss" had been mentioned by him many times. He was a remarkable figure, leading a pack of Monster Beast and an army of the Death Legion, sweeping across the Mortal Realm.

Now that they've entered the Taixu World, a single battle wiped out over a thousand of them. That combat power alone earned their respect.

"Alright, everyone stay orderly on the Warship; I'll go greet the boss myself!"

Their boss gave the bandits a command, then alone leapt down from the Warship and walked forward from a distance to greet. It seemed he still greatly respected the boss he spoke of.

The Dream Family's Flying Boat, after approaching, also came to a halt.

"So it's him!"

Ye Liuyun hadn't stepped onto the Flying Boat yet, but through it he saw the person arriving from the opposite side.

Lei Ming and a few Monster Beast with Golden Pupil also saw.

Lei Ming curled his lip: "That guy is back to being a bandit? Little brother, later let Zhan Kong beat him up hard! The Wolf Hunting Legion's emblem can't be used casually by others!"

What they saw was Cui Daoran, who had arrived in the Taixu World early. Back in the Mortal Realm, Cui Daoran had been the Grand President of the Wolf Hunting Legion.

However, his cultivation realm is now Sevenfold Cave Heaven. At this pace, he's advancing far faster than Ye Liuyun and his group. Lei Ming couldn't defeat him; otherwise she wouldn't have let Zhan Kong step in.

Ye Liuyun also didn't release the other Kuailei first; he simply led the Monster Beast toward Cui Daoran. He wanted to see what attitude Cui Daoran would show them.

"Boss!" Cui Daoran, from afar, saluted Ye Liuyun, performing the military salute he used previously in the Wolf Hunting Legion.

"These bandits are all your subordinates?" Ye Liuyun nodded, asking as he walked.

"Yes! After I arrived here, I was bullied everywhere, had no cultivation resources, could only wander, and happened to rescue a bandit chief. After he died, he handed this bandit group over to me, and also helped me raise my cultivation a lot!"

Cui Daoran immediately explained, fearing Ye Liuyun would blame him for resorting to robbery again.

Ye Liuyun, hearing this, could understand his situation. After all, those who came from the Mortal Realm were not even regarded as people.

So he had no intention to blame. After arriving here, the relationship between them was gone, and he had no right to dictate how Cui Daoran lived.

"You really have a knack for the bandit trade!" Lei Ming said casually upon hearing it.

Cui Daoran scratched his head awkwardly, saying: "Isn't that right! I don't know what happened; I rescued someone and became a bandit chief!"

But after I took power, I began to restrain these bandits, no longer killing indiscriminately; we only seize some resources. That's unavoidable, otherwise they couldn't survive.

"So what do you mean now? The ones we killed before were also your subordinates?" Ye Liuyun directly asked Cui Daoran.

"Yes, they're all my subordinates. They offended the boss, so they deserved to die. However, we also followed orders from the Inspection Department. If the boss needs it, I can lead people to eliminate the Inspection Department for you!" Cui Daoran immediately stated.

"As long as you don't blame us. We didn't know they were your subordinates at the time. As for the Inspection Department, I've already dealt with it, no need for you to act. But why are you still using the old banner?"

Ye Liuyun declined Cui Daoran's offer, not wanting to drag them into it. After all, with only a few of them, they're far from being able to contend with a dynasty.

Cui Daoran immediately said: "The reason I'm still using the Wolf Hunting Legion's banner is that I hope you and the friends from the Mortal Realm, upon seeing this banner, can contact me.

Taixu World is huge; I don't dare roam recklessly, so to locate the boss you can only temporarily use this crude method. I haven't engaged in large-scale killing, otherwise, leading bandits to slowly attack a Xing Xi using your previous method wouldn't be impossible.

I was just worried that after you, the boss, arrived, you'd be dissatisfied with my methods, so I hadn't acted yet..."

Cui Daoran talked on and on without stopping, but Ye Liuyun understood his general meaning.

So he asked directly: "Do you mean you still want to continue following me?"

"Of course, boss, I've been waiting for you! As long as you accept me, it's fine to continue planting the Slave Seal!" Cui Daoran immediately said excitedly.

"Well... you're already free, no need to follow me. Besides, you know, following me doesn't guarantee an easy life as a bandit leader here; you might meet a powerful opponent and lose your life!"

Ye Liuyun said this also for Cui Daoran's sake.

Cui Daoran was already free, no longer needing Ye Liuyun's control. Yet if Cui Daoran wanted to follow him, he truly wasn't comfortable and would indeed need to have a Slave Seal planted.

"Boss, I truly think following you offers a future. As for danger, I'm a bandit here too, I still face risks, and anyone who comes dares to step on me!"

"Just accept me; I can still be useful, selecting soldiers, training, anything!"

Cui Daoran was determined to follow Ye Liuyun. Although Ye Liuyun's cultivation realm is low, even in the Mortal Realm Ye Liuyun was similarly low, yet he still managed to subdue him. Since Ye Liuyun has come here, he will surely achieve great deeds in the future.

He knew clearly that only by following such a person could he have a better future.

"..." Ye Liuyun was still a bit hesitant.

He was pondering how to phrase it without awkwardness to plant a Slave Seal on Cui Daoran, when Cui Daoran released both Souls and rushed into Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness.

Cui Daoran knew Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness contained the Ten Thousand Gods Command. So upon entering, he excitedly shouted: "Boss, let me plant the Slave Seal; I'll keep following you!"

"Um... you're quite skilled!"

Ye Liuyun laughed at him, and immediately took the opportunity to plant the Slave Seal, then released his Soul again.
