Lord of All Gods

Chapter 1303: Chapter 1303 Negotiating Face-to-Face

Ye Liuyun would rather sacrifice some puppets than let his last set of Formation Flags be destroyed.

Even though they were somewhat damaged, it didn’t affect the functionality. He planned to take the flags to the Weapon-Refining Alliance for possible repairs when he returns.

Repairing it should be much simpler than making a new one.

After packing up the Formation Flags, he released his clone and together, they fought their way out.

The metal puppets continued to stay on the city walls with the soldiers, using crossbows to eliminate the Corpse Demons attacking the city.

Below the city walls, the Sacred Majesty level experts were causing tremendous havoc with their every move.

Their actions caused substantial destruction. Many of the Corpse Demon soldiers also suffered as they were caught in the crossfire.

The reinforcements brought by Ye Liuyun greatly outnumbered the foreign race troops, with often two experts fighting one foreign race soldier, and they quickly gained the upper hand.

Some of the Sacred Terra level devil cultivators, who initially intended to assist the foreign race, switched targets when they saw Ye Liuyun’s presence and rushed to fight him.

He only shot with his bow and arrow. As for his avatar, while the clone wielded the Seal of Suppression, crushing large numbers of enemies with a single strike.

"This thing is really suitable for a brawl!" The clone exclaimed.

Whether it was the Sacred Terra-level devil cultivators or the other Corpse Demons, as long as they were covered by the Seal of Suppression, most of them couldn’t escape.

Only those on the edge of the Seal, who reacted quickly, could get out of the attack range.

In fact, Ye Liuyun could also have used the Devil-sealing Stele to suppress them. Although it had a smaller area than the Seal of Suppression, its effect was not far off.

However, he didn’t want to expose the Devil-sealing Stele, so he used his bow and arrows to keep the approaching enemies at bay, not allowing them to get too close.

Soon, the Sacred Majesty-level experts began to join in after dealing with the foreign race.

With the addition of these Sacred Majesty-level experts, Ye Liuyun immediately felt much more relaxed. freёwebnovel.com

A single strike from a Sacred Majesty expert could destroy a large number of Corpse Demons and devil cultivators.

When the foreign race’s Sacred Majesty-level experts were eliminated, they knew the battle was lost and began retreating like a receding tide.

Ye Liuyun led his side’s experts to chase them for a while before returning to the city.

Half a day later, Zuo Mu rushed over with his troops.

"It really is strange. Why isn’t there any reinforcements from the imperial army?" Zuo Mu asked Ye Liuyun in confusion the moment he arrived.

"It’s better that they didn’t come!" Ye Liuyun took out a lot of resources that he had prepared for the other armies and gave them to Zuo Mu!

"Haha! Let them stay away!" Zuo Mu also laughed and didn’t hesitate to accept the resources.

A day later, Qin Peng also returned with his troops. He came back and immediately started blaming himself.

"It’s not your fault. Someone deliberately allowed the foreign race to invade!" Ye Liuyun comforted Qin Peng.

"Those damned traitors! How dare they plot against my lord!" Qin Peng, with his fiery temper, couldn’t contain his anger upon hearing this.

"What’s the rush? It’s not like we didn’t gain anything!" Ye Liuyun handed over the remaining resources to Qin Peng. freewebnoveℓ.com

"Notify the other armies, we’re retreating. This city has fallen. All their resources were taken by the foreign race!" Ye Liuyun instructed Qin Peng.

Upon hearing this, Qin Peng also laughed, "Haha, this is a good move! If they want to mess with us, we won’t play along!"

After giving the order, Qin Peng arranged for the troops to retreat, while Zuo Mu led his forces back to the Devil Clan.

When the other armies received the news, the commanders who had remained idle were left speechless.

"Ye Liuyun did it on purpose!"

"Even if he did it on purpose, what can we do? Do you dare to go to him and ask for compensation? It’s our fault for not sending anyone in the first place. Just endure it!"

"Can we be blamed for this? We were just following orders!"

"Sigh, what are we going to eat next month?"

Some of the commanders complained and chatted with each other using Sound Transmission Talismans.

After returning to Yicity, Ye Liuyun immediately had Zhuge Feiyu take the damaged Formation Flags to the Weapon-refining Alliance to find someone to repair it.

Upon his return, Zhuge Feiyu informed Ye Liuyun, "Your set of Formation Flags has complex Formations on them. It will take at least two months to repair after some Formation masters have studied them. Will it be in time?"

Zhuge Feiyue was asking about the next time when Ye Liuyun would leave.

Ye Liuyun told him, "It’s not too late. I have more time now, about four months!"

Each time he teleported, he led the Burial God further away, giving him more time.

"Then, do you want to take this opportunity to talk to Emperor Xia? You can’t always let them sabotage us behind our backs!" Zhuge Feiyu suggested.

"Their methods don’t seem to be particularly clever," Ye Liuyun replied.

"They may not be clever, and they might not pose a direct threat to you. However, it’s better to deal with them sooner rather than later. I suspect they might be assisting the foreign race."

Zhuge Feiyu analyzed, "Apart from the foreign race, I don’t think any other factions would be in such a hurry to kill you. Moreover, that person must have no real power in his hands. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be doing things that are essentially useless, causing you some trouble without being able to harm you."

"So you mean that person might be a lackey of the foreign race?" Ye Liuyun asked.

"It’s a possibility. My main point is that I don’t see why other factions would make such foolish moves! That person likely doesn’t understand your true power," Zhuge Feiyu explained.

"Alright, I should talk to Emperor Xia," Ye Liuyun agreed.

"Where do you want to have this discussion?" Zhuge Feiyu blinked at Ye Liuyun.

"Haha, of course, I’m going to have a face-to-face negotiation in the Imperial City! If we can’t reach an agreement, I’m not leaving!" Ye Liuyun laughed and used the Conveyor Formation to teleport directly to the Imperial City to find Emperor Xia in the palace.

Ye Liuyun’s presence in the palace immediately made the entire imperial family nervous.

Immediately, some ministers suggested sending him away quickly to avoid attracting the Burial God.

Only Emperor Xia understood why Ye Liuyun had come.

He had finally figured out that Ye Liuyun was not one to take losses lightly.

After having been schemed against, he not only took military resources but also came to the Imperial City. It was clear that if Emperor Xia didn’t give him a satisfactory explanation, he wouldn’t leave easily.

At this point, Ye Liuyun’s actions were intentional, there was no way he would be easily dismissed.

"Please meet me in my study!"

Emperor Xia let out a sigh.

He had already hinted to the former emperor about this.

He hadn’t expected the former emperor to provoke Ye Liuyun again before he had fully recovered from his injuries.

Emperor Xia didn’t understand the former emperor’s actions.

However, he couldn’t simply hand over the former emperor, nor could he tell Ye Liuyun that the former emperor was responsible.

He had already made up his mind to thoroughly investigate the situation in front of Ye Liuyun and ultimately shift the blame onto Xiao Yuhong.
