Chapter 547: Different Treatment
After Ye Liuyun killed the double-headed shadow snake, he ignored Lie Hongxia and simply sent a divine-sense transmission to Meng Wentian: "The double-headed shadow snake has been killed by me; hurry up and recover your injuries!"
Meng Wentian at this moment had already metallized his entire body, shrinking into a sphere. His soul was also in a dormant state. Only a few strands of divine sense remained connected to the outside, waiting for someone to awaken him.
Upon hearing Ye Liuyun's transmission, he slowly changed back from the metallic sphere.
Ye Liuyun was not idle either; he directly dug out both cores from the double-headed shadow snake. This thing he could use for his own cultivation, or give one to Long Nv or Lei Ming.
He also crushed the token, adding its fortune to his own. The double-headed shadow snake had seized Ding Hao's token, so its fortune was much stronger than Ye Liuyun's, and now it all belongs to Ye Liuyun.
With these fortunes, Ye Liuyun had already surpassed Yu Haotian.
After Meng Wentian recovered, he looked at the corpse of the double-headed shadow snake, then at Ye Liuyun, and immediately sent a transmission to Lie Hongxia for confirmation.
At this moment, Lie Hongxia had already resolved to die. She believed Ye Liuyun would not let her go.
So when Meng Wentian asked her, she directly told him the truth, urging him to leave quickly; she also did not want to drag Meng Wentian to die with her.
"Leave quickly; you don't need to stay here and die with me. Even if you turn into a metal sphere, you cannot block his arrow."
Lie Hongxia did not want to burden Meng Wentian.
Who would have thought Meng Wentian shook his head and once again stood in front of Lie Hongxia. "Since I promised to ally with you, even if I die, I will protect you to the end."
Then he looked at Ye Liuyun, threw both his and Lie Hongxia's tokens to Ye Liuyun, and firmly said: "You may take the tokens, but I must protect the persons."
After Ye Liuyun collected the cores, he looked at the two of them. One could not even stand, the other could not lift his arm. Now killing them both would indeed be the best opportunity.
He took a step forward. This step caused the two opposite individuals and everyone outside the secret realm to tense up, holding their breath.
He merely sucked the token over, smiled at Meng Wentian, then clasped his hands: "Until we meet again!"
After saying that, he threw Meng Wentian's token back to him.
Then he only took Lie Hongxia's token, added its fortune to his own, turned around, and flew toward the approaching Lei Ming and the others.
He had originally been on his way to find Long Nv, but Lie Hongxia had delayed him. Now he must bring Lei Ming and the others and continue rushing toward Long Nv's direction.
The tokens seized by Lei Ming and the others, Ye Liuyun also let them distribute among themselves. His fortune is now far greater than Yu Haotian's.
Unless Yu Haotian seizes the tokens of Meng Wentian, Long Nv, Mo Tianheng, and the others, he also has no need to gather more fortune. It would be better to let others also absorb more, so they can together achieve higher rankings.
Meng Wentian stared for a moment, then from afar clasped his hands toward Ye Liuyun to express thanks.
Lie Hongxia also stared for a long time. But she knew Ye Liuyun spared her not because he didn't want to kill her, but out of respect for Meng Wentian's face.
Those outside the secret realm, seeing Ye Liuyun kill the double-headed shadow snake, were already dumbfounded.
At this moment, seeing Ye Liuyun not launch a killing strike against Meng Wentian and Lie Hongxia, the tense crowd all let out a sigh of relief.
"This kid is great, hates evil like an enemy, values love and righteousness! Leave a line when dealing with people!" an elder loudly commented.
"This Ye Liuyun, a newly risen heaven's pride, actually defeated three veteran heaven's prides and even directly killed one!"
"What kind of bow and arrow does this kid use, so powerful!"
Some praised Ye Liuyun's conduct, some were astonished at his strength, some coveted his divine bow.
However, upon further thought, trying to snatch something from Ye Liuyun's hands is not easy either; if mishandled, one could lose the whole family or sect.
Probably on Lingzhu Island, no one could stop him.
Even Yao Xinghai, at this moment, secretly praised in his heart: "Good kid, still having this treasure. His arrow, I dare not take head-on."
Yao Xinghai was very satisfied with Ye Liuyun's approach. Kill what should be killed, exchange what should be exchanged! He now also feels he initially underestimated Ye Liuyun; otherwise, giving him more good things might let him improve even faster.
Now everyone is anticipating the battle between Ye Liuyun and Yu Haotian to see who truly is the number one heaven's pride of the Cangyun Continent.
Actually, if we only count fortune, Ye Liuyun is already the number one heaven's pride at this moment. This stage compares fortune, and Ye Liuyun has already absorbed the fortunes of Ding Hao, the double-headed shadow snake, and Lie Hongxia—three heaven's prides—so he is already first.
At this time, Ye Liuyun was not particularly anxious to find Long Nv.
In this secret realm, those who could threaten Long Nv are now few. Basically only Yu Haotian, Mo Tianheng, and Bing Tong Leng Qing Xiao remain; given Mo Tianheng's low profile and Yu Haotian's arrogance, they are unlikely to make things difficult for Long Nv. So even if Long Nv faces Leng Qing Xiao, they could roughly fight to a draw.
Thinking that Long Nv should now be safe, Ye Liuyun began with Lei Ming and the others to collect as many tokens as possible along the way, helping them increase their fortune.
Long Nv at this moment is also gathering tokens everywhere. Thus her direction keeps changing. Given her realm and strength, she has not encountered any opponents. The light band above her head now also shows a faint golden hue.
At this moment in the secret realm, roughly half of the people's tokens have been seized. Those who were robbed, after suffering losses, also know that relying solely on their own strength is insufficient to contend with the strong.
Thus these people gradually gathered together, banded for warmth, formed alliances, and went together to counter-rob others.
Ye Liuyun's group, still using Liang Xue and Shao Jianfeng as bait, this time encountered an alliance of twenty geniuses who surrounded Liang Xue and Shao Jianfeng.
More than twenty martial cultivators ranging from the Fifth Layer to the Seventh Layer of Tiangang also constitute a considerable force. Even a heaven's pride facing them would have to think twice. They have already seized many tokens in a short time, though they have not yet distributed them.
Therefore, the two Tiangang Third Layer martial cultivators were not even on their radar. However, Liang Xue's beauty aroused their lust.
"Haha, there's actually a beauty! Kid, while I'm in a good mood, quickly leave your token and scram, or it's a dead end."
