Chapter 664: Everything Normal

However, I might need a bit more time, and I also don't know whether that injured Food Star Beast will leave the herd, and where it might run off to!

Ye Liuyun felt that if a Venerable-stage expert ran at full speed, their speed would not be slower than a warship.

"I'll wait for you half a year. If you haven't come back after half a year, we'll turn back and go look for the Cangyun Continent you mentioned." Du Yan said decisively.

"Good! Then I'm leaving now." Ye Liuyun said and was about to set sail.

He had just stepped onto the deck when he saw Lei Ming and Long Nv already waiting for him.

Lei Ming smiled proudly at Long Nv and said, "How about that? I wasn't wrong, was I? I know little brother too well—I know he won't give up."

"You little ghost girl. You even guessed that?" Ye Liuyun also didn't expect to be caught dead-on by Lei Ming.

"Hehe, I not only guessed it, I also helped you trick Qingcheng sister and the others into the entire Xuan Kong Shi. But it won't take long! Whether you bring us two along is up to you to decide!"

Lei Ming stood with hands on hips, looking like he was threatening Ye Liuyun!

Long Nv secretly laughed on the side.

It was estimated that if Ye Liuyun didn't agree, she wouldn't let him leave.

Ye Liuyun was also helpless, not daring to delay any longer. "Then let's hurry up, what are you standing around for?"

Saying that, he confirmed the direction and led the two of them to fly away from the warship under the cover of night.

After they left, the warship sailed to the previously agreed-upon point with Ye Liuyun, then stopped. It also sank a few li downward.

Then they stopped the ship and extinguished the fire, letting Aizi be responsible for the camouflage.

"You old drunk, are you crazy? Letting that kid run out on his own? And making me do the camouflage? With such a huge ship, can I camouflage it for half a year?" Aizi cursed angrily.

Du Yan said impatiently: "Enough, enough, that kid is stubborn as hell, nobody can persuade him. Don't talk nonsense—it's not like you have to keep holding it up. Camouflage by day, activate the shield at night!"

"That kid is clearly not a fuel‑saving lamp! Aizi, you've worked hard!"

As soon as Li Sanniang spoke, Aizi immediately fell silent.

His camouflage is actually quite simple: he uses True Essence to wrap the entire warship, then forms another shape.

That is his unique technique. As long as he has enough True Essence, he can keep the camouflage going.

However, the warship is too large, he consumes too much and cannot sustain it indefinitely; he also needs to keep enough True Essence for emergencies.

Wu Qingcheng and the others, as soon as they came out of the Xuan Kong Shi, noticed that Ye Liuyun, Lei Ming, and the others were missing, and immediately went to the control room to inquire.

After learning that Ye Liuyun had taken Lei Ming and Long Nv away, they all became very anxious.

But they didn't know where Ye Liuyun had gone, so they could only wait anxiously each day for news of him.

Ye Liuyun brought Lei Ming and Long Nv, rushing to the spot where he often kept watch.

"How did you know I wanted to sneak out?" Ye Liuyun asked Lei Ming midway.

"Hehe, I saw the look in your eyes and knew you weren't resigned. That last line you said was obviously just placating Qingcheng sister and the others." Lei Ming said proudly.

"You little bit of cleverness, all used on me!" Ye Liuyun sighed helplessly.

Lei Ming usually doesn't care about anything, but I never expected Ye Liuyun to have never deceived her.

"That's right, little brother is the most important to me in my heart; even if I die, I want to accompany you!"

Lei Ming said it naturally. That's what she thought, so she said it.

But Ye Liuyun, hearing that, felt warm inside.

He secretly thought: "Silly girl, how could I bear to let you die?"

But he said aloud: "Don't worry! We've been through all kinds of danger, no need to worry—I'm confident!"

"Forget it! If you were really confident, you wouldn't have sneaked out!"

Lei Ming bluntly exposed him.

"Uh... you really don't give me face!" Ye Liuyun was also completely speechless.

Before reaching his usual watchpost, Ye Liuyun stored Lei Ming and Long Nv in his Storage Ring. Having those two new faces around would arouse suspicion from the Food Star Beast.

Then he rushed to his usual watchpost and observed for a while.

The Food Star Beast saw him, just as usual, and paid him no heed.

"Everything's normal, begin the operation!"

Ye Liuyun saw nothing abnormal and immediately sprang into action.

Facing the aura of over two hundred Venerable-stage experts, if he didn't summon his courage all at once, he would still feel fear.

It would be better to simply grit his teeth and act directly, then he wouldn't be afraid.

Ye Liuyun directly took out a small mountain he had previously stored in his Storage Ring from the empty Storage Ring and hurled it at a relatively young Venerable-stage Food Star Beast.

This Food Star Beast is more active, seemingly just entered the Venerable stage not long ago, lacking experience, not as steady as other Food Star Beasts. That's why Ye Liuyun chose it, having watched it for several days.

Throwing a small mountain at it is, to this Food Star Beast, just the size of a head,

It reacted quickly, turned its head, opened its huge mouth, and directly swallowed.

Ye Liuyun, with a flash of his figure, moved himself onto that small mountain, and was entirely swallowed into the beast's mouth.

By the time the Food Star Beast reacted, Ye Liuyun had already followed the small mountain through its throat. Even if it wanted to spit, it couldn't bring anything out.

Inside the Food Star Beast's throat, a strong airflow came through, trying to blow Ye Liuyun out.

But this Food Star Beast is simply too huge—its mouth is like a giant valley. Ye Liuyun casually found a tooth to hide behind, and the beast couldn't do anything about it.

After spitting for a while, the Food Star Beast still didn't spit out Ye Liuyun, nor did it notice anything unusual.

It waited a bit longer, saw that everything was still normal, and assumed Ye Liuyun had been digested after being eaten. It then relaxed and went back to sleep.

Ye Liuyun hid between two teeth as big as small mountains, waited half a day, used his Divine Sense to probe, and found the Food Star Beast was sleeping soundly again, only then daring to continue acting.

He arrived at the Food Star Beast's throat, but dared not go further in, fearing he'd be sucked in and directly digested by the beast.

From the Food Star Beast's throat, he began to take out the Demon Slaying Sword and dig downward.

He had long memorized the Food Star Beast's internal structure, knowing exactly where to start and how to dig fastest to reach the heart; he had already planned it all.

So far, his plan has been relatively successful.

Once inside the Food Star Beast's body, the subsequent steps become much easier. The hardest part is how to get out.

Very open, Ye Liuyun dug a big pit, he also hid into the pit, continuing downwards, digging towards the heart's position.

As for the Food Star Beast, at first it didn't feel anything. Its body is too huge; the hole Ye Liuyun dug is, to it, basically nothing.
