Yun Xingyi had made up his mind. He decided he would take all the Yun Family’s secrets and pledge his allegiance to Tianshu—whether Tianshu accepted him or not, he would tell him every single secret of the Yun Family that he knew!
This shift in Yun Xingyi’s thoughts happened in an instant, yet he still didn’t forget to express his gratitude toward Yun Shaoping.
He had already become quite natural at feigning compliance.
Yun Shaoping didn’t even spare Yun Xingyi a glance, treating him completely like a dog—a dog that no longer had any value.
Sima Xuyan witnessed this unfold and felt a strange sense of empathy, an indescribable sorrow welling up in his heart.
"Which way?"
After the group landed in a Teleportation Array within the Heaven-Reaching Tower area of the Blood-Colored Ancient City, Yun Shaorong immediately demanded to know.
Without hesitating, Yun Xingyi and Sima Xuyan began to point the way.
...
After leaving the cave, Ye Tianling hadn’t actually gone far. He found a place to set up a Concealment Talisman Array and manifested his main body.
Having both identities present at the same time was a strange feeling, like his left and right hands had suddenly separated yet were still part of a single whole.
Ye Tianling spent nearly half an hour getting used to it, gradually adapting to this state of existence.
Then, he ’escorted’ ’Ye Tianling’ back toward the cave.
At this point, Ye Tianling discovered that during the time he was away, the cave’s Talisman Array had been broken open from the outside.
As soon as Ye Tianling stepped into the vicinity of the cave, he sensed a huge commotion inside.
’Well now, they certainly are fast. It hasn’t even been half an hour. Have the Yun Family’s Cultivators already come to slaughter?’
Ye Tianling was slightly surprised.
He hadn’t expected the Yun Family to be in such a hurry to serve themselves up on a platter.
Escorting his ’main body’, Ye Tianling’s figure gradually drew closer to the cave.
Instantly, his Eye of Celestial Secret saw the scene unfolding before him.
A mocking expression couldn’t help but spread across Ye Tianling’s face.
...
"Where is Tianshu? Are you two deceiving us?"
Yun Shaorong’s expression was grim, his tone filled with chilling murderous intent.
Yun Xingyi glanced around, his heart sinking to the pit of his stomach.
"No, we didn’t lie! He—he really did tell us to do this."
Yun Xingyi’s face was pale, and cold sweat was already trickling down his forehead.
"That’s right, we... we’re just ants, like running dogs. How would we dare use our own Cultivation to deceive you? Young Master Rong, that Tianshu said he wanted the Yun Family to offer up Cultivation Resources in exchange..."
Sima Xuyan had no choice but to step forward and plead their case.
At this moment, he had to stand with Yun Xingyi. If Yun Xingyi were punished, he would not escape either.
"Exchange? What right does he have? Looks like he’s fled! Fine. You lot, seize these two bitches. If they resist, suppress them directly, but don’t kill them! We’ll use them for Absorption later!"
Yun Shaorong’s aura was sinister, his eyes flashing with a wicked light.
His gaze was exceptionally perverse and sinister as it landed on Liu Xu’er and Ye Tianyun.
Even Liu Xu’er and Ye Tianyun couldn’t help but shudder when they saw that look, finding it difficult to resist its profound and bizarrely mysterious charm.
This was a type of wicked, soul-corroding Energy.
WHOOSH—
At that moment, two powerful Male Cultivators stepped out from among the hundred or so Cultivators behind Yun Shaorong.
Once the two men locked their gazes on Liu Xu’er and Ye Tianyun, their cold and merciless aura made the women feel a terrifying pressure, like death itself was looming over them.
"It’s over."
Liu Xu’er and Ye Tianyun exchanged a glance, a hint of regret visible in their eyes.
This time, two top-tier experts from the Yun Family were making a move. Moreover, one of them, the woman Yun Shaoping, was a true genius Spiritualist at the True Spirit Level.
With such a figure present, they clearly had no chance of resisting.
But even if they were powerless to resist, Liu Xu’er and Ye Tianyun refused to just sit there and await their doom.
"You think you can take us?!"
Liu Xu’er shouted in a cold, low voice, her eyes filled with grim resolve.
Ye Tianyun, meanwhile, had already summoned her Battle Soul, activating all of her Bloodline Power.
"Still trying to resist? A couple of ants!"
A look of contempt appeared in Yun Shaoping’s eyes. With a cold wave of her hand, the two Male Cultivators who had stepped forward immediately summoned their Battle Souls and charged forward to crush Liu Xu’er and Ye Tianyun.
A terrifying and grim Battle Intent roared wildly, suddenly manifesting as two incomparably burly and majestic Lions.
Lion Battle Souls!
After manifesting, the two Lion Battle Souls transformed into two streams of Slaughter Sword Intent. Carrying a cold and suffocating pressure of Destruction, they shot directly toward Liu Xu’er and Ye Tianyun.
CH-CHH—
Liu Xu’er manifested her Thundercloud Beast Battle Soul. The Battle Beast Soul, which rode upon thunderclouds, had only just appeared when it was instantly struck by this Power of Destruction and almost collapsed immediately.
Meanwhile, Ye Tianyun’s attack also met the Sword Intent formed from the Lion Battle Souls.
However, the instant they collided, Ye Tianyun’s attack was utterly routed, completely powerless to resist.
"Since Shaorong wants you, you should submit obediently instead of struggling, understand? This was supposed to be your good fortune!"
An even colder look appeared in Yun Shaoping’s beautiful eyes. As she gazed at Liu Xu’er and Ye Tianyun, her killing intent became palpable.
"Good fortune? How about you kneel, kowtow, and lick my boots? That can be your good fortune!"
Just then, Ye Tianling pushed his ’main body’ inside, speaking in a clear voice as he did.
"Hm?"
Hearing this, Yun Shaoping’s eyes suddenly turned extremely vicious and icy.
But she didn’t explode. Instead, her cold gaze swept past Ye Tianling’s main body and landed on his Dao Body, ’Tianshu’.
"You’re Tianshu?"
Yun Shaoping stepped forward, walking closer and closer to ’Tianshu’.
As for ’Ye Tianling’, she completely ignored him.
"Ye Tianling, what are you doing here?"
When Ye Tianyun saw Ye Tianling appear, her voice trembled as she complained.
Getting involved now... there was likely no chance of survival.
The situation was simply too dire.
"I’m here to get you out. Tianshu said that as long as I’m willing to pay a certain price, he’ll let me exchange for you."
The main body, Ye Tianling, said ’obediently’.
"You—what do you know? You—"
Before Ye Tianyun could say more, the hundred powerful Cultivators had already closed in, surrounding Ye Tianling, Tianshu, and everyone else.
"I am Tianshu."
The Dao Body, Ye Tianling, looked calmly at Yun Shaoping and added, "I mentioned the conditions for an exchange before, but it seems you’re not prepared to pay the price. A moment ago, I made another demand, and you’re still unwilling, correct?"
The Dao Body Ye Tianling’s tone was light, yet it carried a terrifying aura.
