Chapter 2289 Hidden Strength
Ye Liuyun's clone rushed directly to the city lord's palace and looted his treasure house. Then he called the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Regiment in the city and went out of the city together to join Ye Tiandao and others to dig the veins together.
Ye Liuyun was standing outside the palace of the Zhongyuan Dynasty at this time, observing the movement.
After the royal city and formations here were closed for a month, no sign of Yun Mengyi was found, so they could only be opened again and the ban was lifted.
People in the city now have no restrictions on their movements. Ye Liuyun came out to monitor the palace to see if any strong martial arts cultivators would come out of the palace to reinforce Cuiyuan City.
Ye Liuyun estimated that they would not transfer the strong martial arts experts from Lingquan.
There are only more than a hundred strong men stationed in Lingquan. If the three families are evenly distributed, the Zhongyuan Dynasty will only have more than thirty people, which is not enough to deal with the emergencies in Cuiyuan City.
Sure enough, a team of martial arts cultivators, numbering more than a hundred, came out from the palace. And one of the leading young men is actually a prince.
Ye Liuyun heard his subordinates call him the eighth prince.
According to the information heard from the royal city before, the eighth prince Xue Jinling should be at the early stage of the eighth level.
But Ye Liuyun's golden eyes discovered that his true realm was the late ninth level. It’s just that he wears a treasure from a hidden realm.
It can also be seen from these circumstances that the Zhongyuan Dynasty was probably really hiding its strength.
The clone also learned the information at this time, and asked everyone to clean up the traces as quickly as possible, then took them all into the space world and returned to the city with Qiongqi.
This time they entered the city as the alchemist of the Cuishan City Lord's Palace in the Xingjin Dynasty. They first went to the local chamber of commerce and ordered a batch of medicinal materials before returning to the inn to rest.
When Xue Jinling arrived, he also found nothing in the veins. The veins had been dug to pieces. He immediately returned to the city, occupied the city lord's palace, and asked Wu Xiu to search the city. At the same time, he reorganized the defenders to seal the city and began to search for the rebels in the city.
When Ye Liuyun and Qiongqi were found in the inn, they easily passed the inspection because of their identities.
Xue Jinling couldn't find any trace of the troublemaker at all, so he could only repeat the screening.
At this time, the medicinal materials ordered by the clone and Qiongqi had been prepared. After the two of them obtained the medicinal materials, the clone took Qiongqi into the space world, put on an invisibility cloak, sneaked into the city lord's mansion, and killed a man. After escorting him, he pretended to be the guard and lived in seclusion in the city lord's palace, monitoring Xue Jinling's movements at close range.
During the second inspection, the garrison also discovered that the clones and Qiongqi were missing. They searched the city but could not find them. I went to the Chamber of Commerce to confirm that two people had taken away the medicinal materials.
The city has been under lockdown. How did these two people leave?
Moreover, the clone and Qiongqi checked into the inn just when Xue Jinling arrived, so he immediately became suspicious.
He immediately sent someone to Cuishan City to inquire. The master of the Cuishan City Lord's Mansion has been controlled by Ye Liuyun, and only his people do not need the intervention of the Zhongyuan Dynasty.
Xue Jinling's men were also strong men from the palace. They were originally very arrogant. When they saw the city lord talking like this, they became angry and said a few harsh words. As a result, the city lord ordered someone to beat him up and put him to death. After being seriously injured, he was thrown directly out of the city lord's mansion.
The man insisted on climbing to the teleportation array and went back to complain to Xue Jinling in a more jealous manner.
"What? A city lord dares to hit my people! You really rebelled against him!" Xue Jinling was furious when he heard this. He immediately called twenty martial arts cultivators and rushed to Cuishan City through the teleportation array.
But as soon as he arrived, the city lord of Feiyun City from the Shengyun Dynasty also arrived at Cuishan City, and two groups of people entered the city lord's mansion in Cuishan City.
Xue Jinling was also very arrogant. When he arrived, he asked his men to take action and started fighting against the city lord's mansion.
But he didn't expect that he, who was originally the one who raised an army to investigate, would be besieged by these two groups. Fortunately, his men tried their best to protect him and wanted to send him away.
However, a large number of defenders appeared at the teleportation array. In desperation, they could only send Xue Jinling out of Cuishan City. But his men did not escape.
After Xue Jinling left the city, he reported the situation here to the Zhongyuan Dynasty while rushing to Cuiyuan City.
The city lords of Cuishan and Feiyun City also reported to their respective dynasties at this time, saying that Xue Jinling of the Zhongyuan Dynasty led people to attack Cuishan City for no reason. Cuishan City asked Feiyun City for help, and together they repelled Xue Jinling.
But at this time, the clone sent soldiers from the Sharp Knife Regiment to attack the strong men in Cuiyuan City.
The clone took the opportunity to touch the residence of the injured martial artist, swallowed his soul, and died without evidence.
Then he released Qiongqi and went with his clone to help the sharp knife group to destroy all the strong men in the city.
Some strong men escaped, but the clones did not chase them. They just planted a slave mark on the last strong man and took him into the space world.
Then let the martial artist who was planted with the slave mark contact Xue Jinling. After confirming the location, he changed into the appearance of the martial artist and went to meet Xue Jinling.
Qiongqi followed him out of the city with the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Regiment, and was then taken back to the space world by his clones.
It has to be said that Ye Liuyun has thousands of illusions and space worlds, and the Zhongyuan Dynasty will never be able to find traces of him and the Sharp Knife Group.
One day later, the clones and more than a dozen other martial arts cultivators also gathered with Xue Jinling one after another, protecting him as he returned to Cuiyuan City.
This time, the Zhongyuan Dynasty also sent two hundred martial arts masters and ten thousand forbidden troops to Cuiyuan City to support them. The leader was Xue Rongwu, the famous Yum Victory King of their dynasty.
As soon as Xue Jinling and his men entered the city, they were first surrounded by Xue Rongwu and his men.
"Sorry, Eighth Prince!" Xue Rongwu said politely: "This matter is now very involved. I need to check your souls to make sure that you are not controlled by anyone."
The clone didn't expect that he would do this. But he has already seen that Xue Rongwu's soul power is not as strong as his.
But he still used the slave seal to let the martial arts cultivators from Cuishan City and Feiyun City come here through the teleportation array.
"What? King Yum is suspicious of me?" The eighth prince was obviously not satisfied. He didn't want to open his knowledge to others casually, lest his secrets be discovered.
"This is an order from King Zhongyuan. Prince, please rest assured, I just want to confirm that your soul is fine, and I will not search for any information!"
Although Xue Rongwu spoke politely, his tone was unquestionable, and he also quoted the order of King Zhongyuan.
"Your Highness, let me come first! Your Majesty, please!"
The martial artist dressed as Ye Liuyun stepped forward and said.
He knew that Xue Jinling would definitely not refuse King Zhongyuan's order, so he might as well take action first, and it seemed that he had a hint, helping Xue Jinling find a place to get off.
Moreover, other martial arts cultivators will soon come through the teleportation array, and they will take this opportunity to control Xue Rongwu.
"Okay!" As expected, Xue Jinling walked down the steps and agreed to the clone's request.
Xue Rongwu was also very satisfied with the clone's performance and felt that the guard was very sensible.
