Chapter 787: Posing as the Demon Race

Afterward, the Demon Race retreated, and no one paid them any further attention.

But the Warship still turned around and headed outward.

The Demon Race Team Leader went to check the situation of the Flying Boats on the perimeter.

Outside the cell, only a Yin Yang Yi Chong Demon Race guard was visible, and Qiong Qi gave Ye Liuyun a subtle signal.

Ye Liuyun immediately pulled both the primary and secondary Souls of that Demon Race guard into his own Yin Yang Realm.

At the same time, Qiong Qi swiftly produced the broken fire furnace and set the cell's chains ablaze.

It was also Ye Liuyun's first time seeing Qiong Qi wield this artifact.

The broken fire furnace looked ordinary, yet when activated it proved remarkably extraordinary.

In the blink of an eye, it burned through the specially forged chains.

Qiong Qi and the others emerged from the cell as well.

"Lei Ming, you take the others and hold the hatch. Ye Liuyun and I will split up and charge toward their control room and cargo hold."

Qiong Qi had just scouted the interior of the Warship and immediately assigned tasks to everyone.

Then Qiong Qi rushed to the control room, while Ye Liuyun released a Skeleton Puppet to storm the cargo hold and slay the Demon Race inside.

As soon as they left the cell, two Demon Race guards at the door tried to raise an alarm, but Ye Liuyun and Qiong Qi struck them with Spiritual Soul Attacks, erasing their Souls.

Qiong Qi then entered the control room, eliminated the strongest Demon Race, and halted the Warship.

With the Skeleton Puppet, Ye Liuyun faced no opposition; Demon Race below Yin Yang Jiu Zhong were no match for them.

Ye Liuyun's Soul attacks, Blade Intent, Yin Yang grinding disc, and Yin Yang Realm took turns, while the Skeleton Puppet cycled its two weapons rapidly, soon slaughtering nearly a hundred Demon Race in the cargo hold.

Afterward, the Skeleton Puppet stayed behind to collect the Demon Race's Yuan Dan and Storage Ring, while Ye Liuyun went to rendezvous with Lei Ming and the others in the cockpit.

The entire Warship had been cleared; not a single Demon Race remained.

"How about we take this Warship, pose as the Ju Li Tribe, and charge straight at the Mo Niu Tribe?" Ye Liuyun asked Qiong Qi.

"Fine. But I need to set up a Formation to block Divine Sense detection!" Qiong Qi agreed with Ye Liuyun's plan.

He etched the Formation much faster than before—drawing it midair, then slapping the Warship, causing the Formation to settle onto it.

This time Ye Liuyun personally took the helm, piloting the Warship.

Warships are controlled with Divine Sense, which isn't hard per se; the difficulty lies in evading danger and coordinating the various functions.

Lei Ming, accompanied by Long Nv, fiddled with the Warship's attack devices, occasionally bombarding outward to test the effect.

Bai Hu and Shi Yuan gathered energy, handling the Warship's power replenishment.

Soon after, the Skeleton Puppet returned with the loot and handed it all to Wu Qingcheng.

Qiong Qi, ignoring the Warship's piloting, continued hammering away at the armor.

"Why is it taking so long?" Ye Liuyun, with a lull in activity, chatted with Qiong Qi, asking about his armor's progress.

"I'm trying to forge a Respect Rank armor!" Qiong Qi replied.

"When did you learn to refine artifacts?" Ye Liuyun hadn't expected Qiong Qi to have mastered refining.

He previously only knew Qiong Qi could make simple things; he didn't expect him to craft Supreme Rank treasures!

"I've been studying all along, alright!" Qiong Qi laughed.

He then asked Ye Liuyun, "How's your alchemy technique?"

"Uh… I've abandoned it for ages! It's probably only at the Super Saint level!"

Ye Liuyun indeed hadn't touched elixirs in a long time.

Lately they've all been taking fewer pills, busy absorbing energy to advance their realms.

"Yes, the higher the realm, the less need for pills. Yet each realm requires a few crucial elixirs. For example, the Zao Hua Pill when advancing to the Zao Hua Realm can make breakthroughs far more efficient."

Qiong Qi reminded Ye Liuyun, "Alchemy skills are still vital. Find time to brush up!"

"Alright, I'll improve it when I have time." Ye Liuyun also acknowledged the importance of alchemy.

However, his cultivation time is insufficient, leaving no room for alchemy.

"A Demon Race fleet ahead!" Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense stretched far, suddenly detecting a Demon Race fleet approaching.

Qiong Qi also paused his work and looked over.

"Charge forward and see what they say!" Qiong Qi was bolder than Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun immediately charged forward.

"These two together dare to do anything!"

Wu Qingcheng and several other women were extremely worried, discussing Ye Liuyun together.

"Meng Fan, weren't you on guard duty? Why did you come here?" the opposing Demon Race Warship asked via Transmission Voice.

Qiong Qi cut in before Ye Liuyun, replying, "It's safe outside, no one's entered, so I came to see if help is needed."

"Since you have nothing to do, come with us to the Mo Niu Tribe's lair and launch a rear assault. The front is in a heated battle now, so you wouldn't be of any help there."

"If we succeed and capture the Mo Niu Tribe's Mineral Vein, those dumb cows will be finished. You'll have earned a merit!"

"Fine!" Qiong Qi pretended to agree. Ye Liuyun immediately turned his ship around, slipping to the tail of that fleet.

"That really fooled them!"

Wu Qingcheng and the others breathed a sigh of relief for the moment.

They hadn't expected the Demon Race to be so careless.

"Don't worry, the bolder you are, the less likely you'll arouse suspicion!" Ye Liuyun reassured them.

"But how will we get out later?" Su Miaoyin asked, puzzled.

"Hehe, just say we're under Lord Meng Fan's command, sent out as cannon fodder!" Qiong Qi chuckled, opening his mouth to speak.

"You're truly cunning!" Lei Ming stuck out his tongue beside them.

Qiong Qi laughed, "Haha, it depends on who you're dealing with!"

Ye Liuyun and a group of Monster Beasts, inside the Warship, chat and laugh, completely unafraid of being exposed by the Demon Race.

Wu Qingcheng remains relatively calm, while Yu Er, Su Miaoyin, Ru Yue and others are extremely nervous.

In less than a day, Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense far away sees Adao xu emitting Demon Qi; at a glance it is the Demon Race's territory.

"Meng Fan, you all prepare, lead the charge! It's time for you to earn merit!"

"Yes!" Qiong Qi replied, urging Ye Liuyun to accelerate, charging toward the Bull Demon Tribe's territory.

"This Meng Fan, today you didn't make me waste my words!"

The fleet's leader, seeing Meng Fan's Warship rush straight ahead, seemed rather satisfied.

Previously his relationship with Meng Fan wasn't great either. He thought Meng Fan only followed because he wanted to earn merit.

Meng Fan is not his direct subordinate. He brought Meng Fan here actually to use him as cannon fodder.

He also knows this mission is arduous, destined to kill many of his subordinates. He doesn't want too many of his own people to die.
