Chapter 3828: Eradicating the Branch Institute

When the battle ended, Ye Liuyun immediately ordered everyone to clean up the battlefield, then led them all to charge toward the Jin Feng Sect.

The local branch institute of the Jin Feng Sect had no more than ten thousand people, with no real masters, and nearly half were outer disciples of the sixth and seventh layers of Taixu, easy to deal with. Ye Liuyun could take advantage of their lack of preparation and launch a massive strike.

On the way to Jin Feng Sect, he had already made arrangements: he had Ye Tiandao ready his troops for battle, and had Zhan Kong take some Skeleton Puppets to ambush in advance, preventing anyone from escaping during the fight.

The Director of the Jin Feng Sect was at this moment gathering many Elders to discuss a plan. They also discovered that the life talismans of the Deputy Director and others had successively shattered, realizing they were being surrounded and slaughtered.

"Who are these people, daring to attack our Jin Feng Sect, are they bored with life?"

"I think it's because we are too merciful to these troublesome people in everyday life that they dare to provoke us!"

Seeing that many Elders failed to grasp the seriousness of the problem and were using a lofty attitude to pontificate, the Director had to speak: "I have already applied to the Main Institute for assistance, but their troops won't arrive any sooner than a day later.

"I think anyone capable of slaying the Deputy Director is not weak; we must devise a countermeasure to prevent them from coming straight to the branch institute."

But his caution failed to earn the Elders' attention.

"Daring to come to our Jin Feng Sect is pure courting death. With so many of us and so many disciples, even a mere attrition could kill them."

"Exactly, Director, don't be fooled by how loudly they cause trouble outside; even if they borrowed a hundred of their courage, they wouldn't dare come to our Jin Feng Sect to seek death!"

Most Elders shared this view. They also didn't think any faction possessed the strength to attack the Jin Feng Sect.

"What if they are outsiders?" the Director voiced his concern.

But his words were quickly refuted by an Elder: "Outsiders act more cautiously in new territories and are even less likely to become enemies of our Jin Feng Sect; that would mean declaring war on our entire Xing Xi, wouldn't it? Which Martial Cultivator has the power to take on an entire Xing Xi alone?"

The many Elders all nodded in agreement, thinking the Director was over‑worried.

They believed that once the Main Institute sent its people, they could investigate the true culprits, and their branch institute need not worry about being attacked; instead they should consider the selection of a Deputy Director.

Thus, a meeting originally meant to guard against enemy raids turned into a power‑struggle debate among the Elders, causing them to miss the optimal warning window.

Ye Liuyun arrived swiftly, and upon arrival he immediately released Ye Tiandao's female soldiers, then led the Monster Beast and Kuailei straight toward the inner‑gate Council Grand Hall, without a moment's delay.

He left Gu Changhong and Qian Meng to Ye Tiandao; their safety was well assured. The outer disciples here were at a level similar to the female soldiers, perfect to serve as whetstones for them.

What Ye Tiandao and Yue Ying did not anticipate was that these Jin Feng Sect outer disciples were utterly unfit for combat; their cultivation solidity and battle experience were far inferior to those of the female soldiers. The mere killing aura emanating from the female soldiers already intimidated them into surrender.

When the battle cries reached the Council Grand Hall, Ye Liuyun and his Kuailei arrived as well. He released Magic Vine, dragon beast, and Little Witch, focusing them on the inner disciples.

The Clone Puppet swung a single strike that cleaved the Council Grand Hall in two. Elders who rushed out to meet the fight were each cut in half by Ye Liuyun's blade, their Souls ripped into the Sea of Consciousness.

Long Nv's coiling dragon staff, Lei Ming's thunder god hammer, the Nine‑Headed Demon Dragon's demon blade, Bai Hu's bone spear, and the attacks of the Monster Beasts all thundered into the hall. Half of the Elders inside were eliminated at a single glance.

"They're far too easy to kill!"

Ye Liuyun also noticed that these people were outwardly strong but hollow inside; their power was far weaker than their cultivation levels suggested.

"You go handle the inner disciples; I'll take care of this place with the Kuailei!"

Ye Liuyun immediately ordered the Monster Beasts to slay the inner disciples, saving time; his presence with the Kuailei here was sufficient.

Then the Clone Puppet used Red Pupil Illusion Technique to plant a Slave Seal on the opposing Director. The remaining Elders simply gave up without a fight, immediately surrendering.

After Ye Liuyun and the Clone Puppet individually placed Slave Seals on them, some thought it unbelievable, that it was too fast. A whole sect had been taken down like that.

"Kuailei, go help the Monster Beasts!" Ye Liuyun immediately ordered all the Kuailei to assist in guarding the Monster Beasts.

He and the Clone Puppet then seized the captured Directors and Elders, stripping them of all resources, even taking the planets within their Cave Heaven World.

"These people are far too wealthy!" Ye Liuyun and the Clone Puppet were amazed at the resources they possessed.

These Elders had concentrated most of the surrounding region's wealth into their own hands.

"Now the female soldiers have enough cultivation resources!" they were quite pleased with the haul. With these resources, the female soldiers could quickly advance their cultivation levels.

Ye Liuyun immediately used Transmission Voice to tell the Monster Beasts and Kuailei that the Jin Feng Sect disciples were either rich or noble, urging them not to indulge themselves and not to forget to gather resources.

"First, go to the Treasure Vault!"

Ye Liuyun immediately sent those Directors and Elders to the Treasure Vault, looted it completely, then led them to join the Monster Beasts in slaying the inner disciples.

It wasn't until they encountered the inner disciples here that Ye Liuyun realized some of them still possessed strength; a few even had cultivation reaching the first and second layers of the Cave Heaven World, though they were still deemed insufficient in the eyes of the Monster Beasts and Kuailei.

However, that was only a fraction; the majority of inner disciples were wealthy, influential families who bought their way in for prestige. Yet they truly were affluent—none of them were poor.

At that moment, Ye Liuyun suddenly spotted another group also slaying Jin Feng Sect disciples. These people wore tattered clothes, looked gaunt, bore wounds, and some carried half‑broken chains, clearly just severed.

Moreover, these individuals killed Jin Feng Sect disciples with even greater frenzy, employing brutally cruel methods; after decapitating a head, they would add a few more cuts to dismember the body.

"Who are those people?" Ye Liuyun asked the Director accompanying him.

"They are all war slaves, taking the opportunity to cause trouble!" the Director sighed.

Those war slaves only killed Jin Feng Sect disciples; even when they encountered Ye Liuyun and his group, they immediately avoided them.

Ye Liuyun promptly told the Monster Beasts and Kuailei to avoid conflict with them and focus on killing Jin Feng Sect disciples first.

Then, while fighting, he chatted with the Director: "I think these war slaves, though low in cultivation, are far stronger in combat than your worthless disciples!"
