Chapter 745: A Fox Borrowing the Tiger's Might

As a shaft of Golden Light pierced Blood Fang's body, even his Soul was pierced through.

Moreover, from the hole the Golden Sword made, the Golden Light kept expanding, soon covering his entire body.

He himself immediately dissipated.

Ye Liuyun was barely holding back the black aura. Without Hunting Demon Armor, his own strength certainly couldn't have lasted this long.

Fortunately, after Blood Fang died, the black aura lost control and eventually faded away.

Ye Liuyun retrieved the Hunting Demon Bow and Hunting Demon Armor before emerging from the void.

The Witch's entire power had by now been almost completely absorbed.

She stared blankly at Ye Liuyun, wanting to say something but held back. Finally she sighed, and the Yin Soul gradually was absorbed by the Sealing Demon Tablet.

She had just sensed the horror of that arrow, but didn't know how Ye Liuyun had fired it.

She had originally been curious to ask, but felt that as a Yin Soul she was also about to dissipate, so there was no need to know.

Unexpectedly, on a single mission, their whole team was wiped out due to carelessness!

Such a thing hasn't happened in the Nether Hell for many years.

If Blood Fang hadn't been overconfident, they might have launched a full assault at once and perhaps still had a chance to capture Ye Liuyun.

But now the battle is decided; no matter how much she regrets, it's useless—she can only gradually dissipate under the Sealing Demon Tablet's absorption.

Ye Liuyun didn't idle; he tossed the Mourning Bell above the Nether Ghost Ship and began striking it with the Divine Artifact Fragment.

"Boom, boom, boom," the Mourning Bell kept buzzing,

Each time it rang, a large swath of Black Shadow inside the Ghost Ship was drawn into the Mourning Bell. Only after all the Yin Souls were fully absorbed did Ye Liuyun stop.

Looking at the massive Ghost Ship before him, Ye Liuyun happily summoned Lei Ming and brought the others back.

Soon, everyone returned.

A group stood before the Ghost Ship, hesitant.

"Using this Warship is too conspicuous, right?" Li Sanniang asked with a hint of insecurity.

Du Yan nodded, "There are pros and cons! The advantage is that ordinary people dare not provoke us. The drawback is that once discovered, someone will scheme to seize this Warship. Moreover, we don't know whether the Nether Hell can locate this Warship!"

In fact, Du Yan really liked this Warship. But he worried that the Nether Hell might find it.

Ye Liuyun, however, didn't care at all. As long as he was present, the Nether Hell would surely be able to locate him.

So having a top‑grade Warship right before us shouldn't go to waste.

"Feel free to use it, and we'll deal with any problems later!" Ye Liuyun urged Du Yan.

"Indeed! With such a fine Warship, I'd regret it for the rest of my life if I didn't use it once!" Du Yan finally couldn't resist the temptation.

Thus the group boarded, first familiarizing themselves with the Nether Warship's controls; Tuozi then re‑established a shielding Formation to block others' Divine Sense probing, and only then set sail.

The energy on the Nether Ghost Ship was only half remaining, which saved them a lot of resources.

Moreover, the Warship's own death aura caused travelers along the route to avoid it; no one dared approach.

"Ha ha," Du Yan said proudly in the control room, "With this Nether Ghost Ship, we can roam beyond the domain!"

At the same time, the Qian family erupted into chaos!

When the Nether Ghost Ship appeared near the Qian family, the entire clan grew tense and imposed full martial law.

The Elders guarding the Mineral Vein and the spiritual marrow were all fully focused on the outside situation.

Only after the Nether Ghost Ship left again did the Elder guarding the spiritual marrow discover that the marrow had been swapped.

He dared not conceal it and immediately reported to the Clan Chief.

After analysis, they all felt it had nothing to do with the Nether Ghost Ship, since the ship never actually approached the Qian family.

The Elder protecting the spiritual marrow, after recounting the whole incident, led everyone to unanimously conclude it was Qian Yuan's doing. So the first target was to hunt down Qian Yuan.

Thus a group of Elders split onto several of the fastest Warships, racing in all directions to capture Qian Yuan.

The spiritual marrow is the foundation of the Qian family's Mineral Vein.

The Qian family patriarch had already issued a strict decree: anyone who could not retrieve the Spirit Stone, and anyone guarding or entering the Mineral Vein that night, would be sacrificed.

Unlucky Qian Yuan hadn't even returned to Five Sun Yi Cheng when he was seized and taken back.

But in his Sea of Consciousness, there was no memory of taking Ye Liuyun into the Mineral Vein.

During interrogation, he was nearly beaten to a cripple, yet he still didn't admit ever having taken Ye Liuyun into the Vein.

However, faced with the many Elders' accusations, he was somewhat stunned.

The Qian family also had experts; they examined his Soul and found nothing abnormal. Ye Liuyun had already lifted the Slave Seal, leaving no trace to investigate.

The Qian family patriarch was at a loss for what to do.

"Keep searching! Find that Golden Pupil kid!"

The spiritual marrow wasn't on Qian Yuan; their only hope now was to locate Ye Liuyun.

To prevent Ye Liuyun from escaping the Five Sun Domain, they dispatched the fastest Super Warship and nearly a hundred Elders toward the direction he fled.

At the same time, some Elders were sent to Five Sun Yi Cheng to verify whether Qian Yuan's statements were true.

The Qian family indeed lived lavishly; this Super Warship's speed surpassed even that of the Nether Ghost Ship.

Along the way, any Warship they caught, regardless of size, was immediately scanned with Divine Sense.

Soon, they saw the Nether Ghost Ship far ahead.

The death aura of the Nether Ghost Ship could be felt from afar; various Flying Boats and Warships in its channel promptly steered clear.

The Qian family leading Elder ordered directly, "Swerve around it!"

"Elder, aren't we checking it?" a young disciple asked in confusion.

"Snap!"

The Elder gave him a sharp slap.

"Fool! Losing the spiritual marrow, the Qian family's Mineral Vein could still sustain many years! But provoking the Nether Ghost Ship would mean the Qian family should dissolve! Change course immediately!"

"Yes, yes!" the disciple answered repeatedly, daring not to nag any more. He altered course to steer far away from the Nether Ghost Ship and kept chasing forward.

Inside the Nether Ghost Ship, Du Yan had already noticed that the Qian family's Super Warship was chasing them.

"Should we accelerate and flee, or fight it out?" he asked Ye Liuyun.

"No!" Ye Liuyun immediately stopped Du Yan.

He, however, was very confident about this Warship.

"Now we have the Nether Hell behind us, I don't believe they'll dare block us. Don't panic, maintain course and speed, and watch their movements before deciding!"

"Then… alright!" Du Yan let go of the hand that had been ready to accelerate.

Yet he still clenched his fists nervously, as if ready to battle at any moment.

The others also gathered in the control room, waiting tensely, not even daring to breathe.

This situation was no different from when they were previously smashed by a Nether Ghost Ship.

"They're gone! They veered away!" Du Yan's nervousness finally eased.

Seeing the Qian family's Super Warship change course, smiles appeared on everyone's faces.

"My goodness! That scared me to death!" Li Sanniang finally dared to speak up. "This tiger skin really works!"
