Chapter 3925: Journey to the Demon Race

~7 min read 1,287 words

The Leader also asked Ye Liuyun: "May I ask whether our Sixth Stage of He Dao strongman is still alive? If possible, we are willing to provide resources to ransom him back."

"It didn't go back? I don't know! At the time it ran quite fast, I chased a bit but couldn't catch up, then returned to the battlefield. The battle was intense, I couldn't ignore the lives of others just to chase it!"

Ye Liuyun spoke solemnly and with righteous confidence.

The Leader didn't doubt him, feeling he wasn't speaking falsely.

Ye Liuyun indeed returned to the battlefield shortly thereafter. Moreover, even if Ye Liuyun were lying, they could do nothing with Ye Liuyun.

But Ye Liuyun added: "He ran westward at that time; you may send people to look for him. He was also injured, and if he encounters a Demon Race strongman, that would be dangerous."

He seemed to speak casually, but it was clearly incitement.

As for whether these evil beings are trustworthy, it no longer concerns him.

The Leader also relayed Ye Liuyun's words verbatim to the Clan Chief and the Elder council.

Mo Yuhan and the Elders were split: some thought Ye Liuyun was inciting, while others believed him.

Because their conflict with the Demon Race is fundamentally irreconcilable, whether they stir trouble or not, the result is the same.

And even if Ye Liuyun explicitly tells them not to hand over anyone, they can only stare helplessly.

They also analyzed that Ye Liuyun only requested cultivation resources from them. This indicates that if Mo Lin was indeed captured by Ye Liuyun, he would certainly negotiate a price with them.

In their view, captives are tradable, and Ye Liuyun has no need to keep a defeated one.

So ultimately they decided to trust Ye Liuyun's words, sending people toward the Demon Race's direction to search for Mo Lin, but received no news.

The Demon Race side indeed received news quickly.

However, the Faction reinforced its new front line with the fleeing Evil Cult army soldiers, and also dispatched several Hédào Wǔchóng Elders, temporarily re‑engaging the stalemate with the Demon Race.

Ye Liuyun soon received compensation from the Faction: Primordial Power filled several Storage Rings, along with a large amount of metal and medicinal herbs.

"These evil beings are truly wealthy!" Ye Liuyun suddenly felt he was lacking.

But he had already promised the Faction not to strike them again, so he could only keep the agreement.

The Faction finally breathed a sigh of relief; upon learning Ye Liuyun would go to the Demon Race, they were instantly filled with anticipation, hoping he would cause similar trouble there.

Otherwise, the Faction is now at a disadvantage; if they truly fight for their lives, they are no longer a match for the Demon Race.

"I think he will strike the Demon Race!" Mo Yuhan analyzed to the Elders: "At least he won't let the Demon Race become stronger than us; after all, maintaining the balance of our strength is most beneficial to the Human Race."

"What about Mo Lin? Still continue the search?" an Elder asked.

"Stop searching. If it is hiding to heal, it won't fully recover that quickly; let it return on its own. Meanwhile we must prepare for the possibility it never returns and look for the next cultivation target."

Mo Yuhan also made a decision. Going to the Demon Race's territory to look for people is extremely dangerous, would cost their troops their lives, so they simply gave up the search.

Ye Liuyun led the group toward the Demon Race's territory, pondering along the way how to weaken the Demon Race's power.

"When the time comes, we can release Mo Lin, letting him act with those evil beings."

He suddenly thought they could use the evil beings to drain the Demon Race.

However, before sending Mo Lin out again, he still needed Little Witch to lift the misfortune curse for him.

"The misfortune curse can be lifted, but its qi luck has been completely depleted," Little Witch told Ye Liuyun.

"Can its qi luck be replenished?" Ye Liuyun asked Little Witch.

Little Witch mistakenly thought Ye Liuyun wanted to use the qi luck inside that blue Crystal Stone to replenish Mo Lin, and immediately objected.

"No. The qi luck in that Crystal Stone isn't fit for that monster!" Little Witch shouted, hair standing on end.

Ye Liuyun hurriedly explained: "I don't mean that. I want to know, if I bring two evil beings, can you transfer their qi luck to Mo Lin? It doesn't have to restore his original strong qi luck; at least he won't be too unlucky in battle."

"That's doable!" Little Witch finally relaxed.

Ye Liuyun immediately went to Lei Ming's Zhenmo Tower and retrieved two lowest‑realm evil beings, having Little Witch help transfer their qi luck to Mo Lin; after their qi luck was drained, they were swept away by Magic Vine.

There were also thirty‑four evil beings in Lei Ming's Zhenmo Tower, five of which were Hédào Wǔchóng, and the remaining were of Cultivation (three to four) level, which were enough.

The Demon Race side at this moment also received the news, learning that Ye Liuyun was coming.

Although they did not know the details of Ye Liuyun's final battle, they had heard that he had a very strong Kuailei squad, which was hard to deal with.

Therefore the Demon Race Clan Chief Brahma also summoned several Demon Race Elders and Leaders to discuss how to handle Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun's side possessed Kuailei, advanced refining techniques, and Fire Flame Power and Thunder and Lightning Power capable of large‑scale attacks; these were things the Demon Race greatly coveted.

But if mishandled, or if their strength could not suppress Ye Liuyun, the result would be the same as with the Faction.

Although the Faction compensated resources, they had almost emptied their Treasure Vault. These losses could not be replenished quickly, reducing the overall strength of the entire clan.

Thus the Demon Race also had to treat Ye Liuyun with great caution.

Yan Tang does not advocate making enemies of Ye Liuyun. He now knows that Ye Liuyun's last words to him were a hint not to act rashly.

He thinks that although Ye Liuyun's realm is not high, the forces around him are many, each stronger than the last; he must have an even stronger Trump Card, otherwise he could not have defeated Mo Lin.

These days he has been leading the clan's strongmen to hunt Mo Lin everywhere, yet found no clues. Now, hearing that the Clan Chief summoned everyone to discuss dealing with Ye Liuyun, he immediately returned to the Demon Race to voice his thoughts.

"I think it would be better to directly offer some resources and honestly propose an exchange of refining technology. Perhaps he will reveal something to us."

"But what we want is not just some, but everything. After we defeat the Faction, we will inevitably clash with the Human Race. Without better refining technology, how can we confront the Human Race?" an Elder retorted.

"Thunder Dragon Beast and Nine‑Headed Demon Dragon should also return to our Demon Race!"

"If the Fire Flame Power falls into our hands, it becomes a great killing weapon."

"If we can form a Kuailei army, we would be invincible, and the clan could rest and recover…"

The Demon Race Elders chattered, laying their greedy nature bare.

Brahma remained slightly calmer, asking everyone: "If we act and fail, thereby angering Ye Liuyun, can the Demon Race endure the consequences?"

Brahma was still a bit calmer, asking the crowd: "If we act and fail, instead angering Ye Liuyun, can our Demon Race bear the consequences?"
