Chapter 3821: Disobeying Military Regulations

Ye Liuyun, in battle, truly paid little attention to the women, handing them all over to Kuailei and the Monster Beast. He was constantly, together with his clone, capturing the Martial Cultivator's Soul.

As their Soul power further strengthened, they can now act alone and are very confident even when facing Martial Cultivators of the Cave Heaven sixth and seventh layers.

As for Martial Cultivators of the Cave Heaven third and fourth layers whose Soul power is weaker, he can directly control them with the Red Pupil Illusion Technique, forcing them to release their Soul into his Sea of Consciousness, where he absorbs it into the refining soul cauldron for immediate refinement.

Thus in this battle, most of the Cave Heaven realm bandits' Souls were captured by the two of them. Yet after refinement in the cauldron, those Souls retained little soul essence, enough only for Ye Liuyun and his clone to use for temporary cultivation, far short of a reserve.

After clearing the battlefield, everyone returned to cultivate and recover. When Ye Liuyun got back onto the Flying Boat, Mengfei hurried Lan Ruo Bing to ask Ye Liuyun for armor.

Ye Liuyun does have spare armor, but hadn't thought of giving it to Mengfei. Primarily because she hasn't undergone soldier training nor has combat experience, Ye Liuyun fears she might err.

Yet, considering that only Mengfei would lack the same armor and thus stand out, he agreed. He then had Lan Ruo Bing brief her on some rules and precautions.

After Mengfei received the armor, she promptly put it on. Regarding the rules Lan Ruo Bing mentioned, she listened but thought they were trivial, intending simply to obey orders when the time came.

On the road ahead, they encountered no more bandits and smoothly reached the Xiufeng Star System. At the docking point they disembarked and swapped the Flying Boat for a Warship.

Ye Liuyun incorporated the nearby Monster Beast and the women into the female soldier corps, placing them all under the command of Ye Tiandao and Chen Yueying.

However, Ye Liuyun did not lead the troops directly to the battlefield, but let the soldiers rest on the spot for the time being.

"Young Master Ye, aren't we going to the battlefield?" Mengfei asked Ye Liuyun directly in front of all the soldiers.

The entire formation fell silent, all eyes fixed on Mengfei. Even Ye Liuyun stared at Mengfei with a composed expression, then turned to Lan Ruo Bing beside her.

Lan Ruo Bing, flushed, immediately sent a Transmission Voice to Mengfei: "You are now an ordinary soldier and must obey the army's rules. This is not something you should ask about."

"Did you forget the rules I told you? Before speaking, you must report to the squad leader first. You've overstepped!"

Mengfei awkwardly stuck out her tongue.

Yet at that moment Chen Yueying directly scolded: "Shut up, you who have no sense of rules!"

Then she walked over and snapped a whip at Mengfei, giving her no respect.

Ye Liuyun had already handed them over to Ye Tiandao and Chen Yueying, so at this moment even Liang Xue and Wu Qingcheng dared not act rashly, lest they be subject to military regulations.

Yet Mengfei instinctively reached out and seized Chen Yueying's whip. Her realm was higher than Chen Yueying's, making Chen Yueying no match for her.

Yet her daring to defy Chen Yueying shocked all the female soldiers.

"Stop!" Ye Liuyun barked coldly, immediately applying Soul Pressure toward Mengfei.

He scolded Mengfei: "Now you are an ordinary soldier. Though temporarily assigned, you must obey orders. If you can follow the rules, stay; otherwise get lost! In the army, no one has any privilege."

He then asked Lan Ruo Bing: "Lan Ruo Bing, I told you to brief her on military discipline; did you? How did this situation arise!"

Mengfei was startled by Ye Liuyun's Soul Pressure; seeing Ye Liuyun scold her directly made her feel aggrieved. In all her life, no one had ever rebuked her so directly.

Ye Liuyun had always given the impression of being easy to talk to, so she was momentarily taken aback. Seeing Ye Liuyun also blame Lan Ruo Bing, she hurried to explain for Lan Ruo Bing: "Young Master Ye, it's not Sister Lan's fault; I just wasn't used to it..."

Lan Ruo Bing was at a loss for words, quickly sent another Transmission Voice: "Shut up immediately! The officer didn't ask you anything, what are you grabbing for!"

Mengfei was momentarily stunned, not expecting Lan Ruo Bing to scold her too. Thus she froze halfway through her words.

Lan Ruo Bing stepped forward and replied to Ye Liuyun: "Reporting to Leader, my instruction was insufficient; I request Leader's punishment!"

Ye Liuyun said nothing, merely looking at Chen Yueying.

Chen Yueying did not hesitate, immediately ordering: "Pull them out, each receive twenty lashes as a public example!"

Nearby, Lei Ming and Long Nv rushed forward, instantly sealing the two's True Essence, then stripped the armor from their bodies and pushed them to be bound to the execution pillar.

When Lan Ruo Bing stepped forward, Lei Ming had already anticipated they would be subjected to military law, so he promptly coordinated with Long Nv, each taking charge of one.

Lei Ming assigned Long Nv to handle Mengfei. Long Nv, being pragmatic, did not hold back, fully sealing her True Essence. This was also because Lei Ming despised Mengfei for breaking the rules and dragging Lan Ruo Bing into it, deliberately sending Long Nv to deal with her.

When Lei Ming sealed Lan Ruo Bing's True Essence, he left a slight opening. Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil immediately noticed, but he only glared at Lei Ming without a word.

Mengfei hadn't expected that a single question would earn her a beating and also implicate Lan Ruo Bing. She was tearful, pleading on Lan Ruo Bing's behalf.

"It's not Sister Lan's fault..."

Long Nv directly sealed even her breath, leaving her utterly unable to speak.

"Shut up! Are you trying to ruin Sister Lan?" Long Nv also sent a Transmission Voice threatening Mengfei.

"Stop talking now; you can speak later if you have something to say!" Lan Ruo Bing also sent a Transmission Voice to Mengfei.

Then two female soldiers arrived, brandishing whips, lashing both women twenty times, causing Mengfei to be pained into a fainting death.

Lan Ruo Bing still had some True Essence to draw upon, thus she weathered the twenty lashes without severe injury.

Afterwards the two had their True Essence seals lifted and were carried back to the Warship for treatment. For Martial Cultivators, once True Essence recovers, wounds heal rapidly.

This scene was witnessed by three newcomers who had just arrived: Wàn Xīnghǎi, Xiāo Qíng, and Jīn Biāo.

"Ye brother, why are you fighting the women?" Jīn Biāo asked Wàn Xīnghǎi, puzzled.

Wàn Xīnghǎi shook his head, also not understanding.

"This is a military camp, so naturally there are army rules," Xiāo Qíng, who understood a bit more, explained to them.

When Xiāo Qíng saw so many dashing, heroic female soldiers, his eyes lit up, feeling he had found his calling. Especially seeing Lei Ming and Long Nv among them made him even more eager to join.

Ye Liuyun, seeing the three had arrived, promptly ordered Ye Tiandao to set out.

Ye Tiandao immediately had the soldiers board the ship, while the three of Wàn Xīnghǎi ran over to find Ye Liuyun.

"Brother Ye."

"Ye King!"

Their forms of address differed, and for a moment there was no unified way to address him.
