With focused dedication, Ye Liuyun's strength rapidly improved.
Now, he could hold his own against the Dracaena siblings, who were at the sixth level of Sacred Terra.
In the Ghostic World, a vast space that had been eerily silent suddenly experienced a terrifying surge of Divine Sense.
Every inhabitant in the Ghostic World sensed that their ruler had returned.
The Burial God, after years of recovery and cultivation, had finally completed a significant phase in his training.
As he ca out of seclusion, his powerful Divine Sense swept through the entire Ghostic World.
The powerful divine sense fluctuation was also a warning to the group of Yin-soul to behave themselves.
Upon his return, he stepped out of his dwelling place where he had been ditating.
"Master!"
Several Yin-souls imdiately bowed and gathered around him, ready to obey his commands.
The Burial God waved his hand, dismissing them.
"I need to go out for a while. There are so matters that need to be dealt with sooner rather than later."
The Burial God said indifferently.
In fact, his injury would not make him return to his peak state so quickly.
But he felt that with his current strength, it shouldn't be a problem for him to deal with Ye Liuyun.
Even if Ye Liuyun brought so peak-level Sacred Majesty realm experts, he was not concerned.
At his zenith, he had been in the Immortal Realm.
Though he hadn't returned to the Immortal Realm yet, he still believed he was invincible in this world.
Imdiately, he reached out to his Ghostic Mark, searching for Ye Liuyun's location.
Even though part of the Ghostic Mark had been erased, he could still sense Ye Liuyun's approximate whereabouts from a distance.
Shortly after, the gates of the Ghostic Hell swung wide open. The Burial God shrouded in a sinister aura, soared into the sky without the need for a battleship. He headed straight toward Ye Liuyun's location.
Ye Liuyun, who was still on the battlefield, was in the midst of his cultivation.
Suddenly, he sensed the flickering of the Ghostic Mark.
Both he and his clone imdiately halted their practices.
"It seems the inevitable has arrived," Ye Liuyun said wryly.
His current strength was far from a match for the Burial God.
"It's been long enough! It appears the Burial God's previous injuries weren't light." His clone analyzed.
Ye Liuyun nodded. "But those injuries won't hinder him much when facing us."
"Prepare yourself quickly!" the clone stood up.
Ye Liuyun also rose, summoning the demons and the others who were with him to gather around him.
The others didn't know what was happening, but seeing Ye Liuyun's serious expression, they sensed that sothing was amiss, and their faces grew tense.
"What's going on?" Lei Ming asked.
"The Burial God is coming," Ye Liuyun said simply.
His words weighed heavily on everyone's hearts.
"All of you split up from temporarily. Do you want to stay here or return to Yicity?" Ye Liuyun asked.
"I'll stay on the battlefield to practice my swordsmanship. Co back to fetch ," Fyeng Wanru was the first to speak, without any hesitation.
"I'll stay and train on the battlefield."
"I'll go back to Yicity! The battlefield doesn't suit ."
The demons made their choices one by one.
In the end, Fyeng Wanru, Ye Tiandao, Blue Serpentine, and the other demons stayed on the battlefield.
Blue Serpentine wanted to follow Ye Liuyun, but he didn't allow her. Instead, he asked her to help protect Fyeng Wanru and Ye Tiandao.
However, Lei Ming and Dragon Lady insisted on accompanying him. They have Dragon Bones and could unleash three Immortal Level attacks, which could be helpful.
"Aren't you afraid?" Ye Liuyun asked them again.
"I'm not afraid of anything when I'm with you!" Lei Ming replied obediently.
Ye Liuyun smiled and didn't reject them.
Vespera chose to return to Yicity because the battlefield didn't suit his assassination techniques. Going back to help Xia Tianqiong or protect Wu Qingcheng and the others was a better choice.
After arranging everyone, Ye Liuyun brought them all to Qin Peng.
"What's going on?" Qin Peng felt alard seeing so many people approaching him with serious expressions.
"My sworn enemy is coming!" Ye Liuyun said with a smile.
"Your sworn enemy?" Qin Peng didn't react at first.
But then he rembered. "The Burial God?"
Most people in the Central Continent knew about Ye Liuyun being marked by the Burial God, but with ti passing, it had slipped from their minds.
Ye Liuyun nodded and then instructed Qin Peng, "I'm entrusting all military authority to you. Participate less in future battles, conserve your strength, and avoid the lilight."
Qin Peng assured Ye Liuyun earnestly, "Rest assured, my lord. I will lead the army well and protect our territories!"
"And my family, they will also rely on your protection!" Ye Liuyun clasped his hands together.
"Please don't say that, my lord! That's what I should do! Without you, I wouldn't be here today!" Qin Peng was deeply grateful for Ye Liuyun's support.
Ye Liuyun respected Qin Peng's dedication, but he still reminded him, "The elite troops should focus on defense, not offense!"
He was worried that if Qin Peng used these elite troops aggressively on the battlefield, it might alert the royal family.
"Understood! I won't let anyone know about their existence unless it's a critical mont!" Qin Peng fully grasped Ye Liuyun's intention.
After their conversation, Ye Liuyun returned to Yicity.
First, Ye Liuyun went to Lan Ruobing's place to inform them.
Then, he returned to Yicity and gathered everyone.
When they learned that the Burial God was coming, silence enveloped the group.
Several won around Ye Liuyun requested to accompany him.
Ye Liuyun refused, saying, "I can't take any of you with . Focus on what you're doing here and wait for my return."
Zhu Youfu chid in, saying, "I believe in him. He will definitely co back!"
He had great confidence in Ye Liuyun, even though they were up against an extraordinary opponent.
"How should we announce it to the outside world?" Zhuge Feiyu asked Ye Liuyun.
He was concerned that powerful forces like the royal family might seize his assets during his absence.
"No need to make any announcents. When the Burial God arrives, they'll all know. By then, you might face pressure. Hold onto your assets if you can, or let them go if you can't," Ye Liuyun advised.
Ye Liuyun was also worried that they might take a risk.
"There's no problem with this period of ti. With our current strength, no faction dares to directly attack us. Everything needs to progress step by step. But in a few years, it might be a different story," Zhuge Feiyu stated.
"A few years should be enough ti to reach a conclusion," Ye Liuyun remarked.
Everyone understood what he ant.
Even if Ye Liuyun kept hiding, in a few years, it would be ample ti for the Burial God to catch up with him.
By then, either the Burial God would be dead, or Ye Liuyun would be!
"All right! Let's all do our best to hold on to our own affairs! We await your return soon!" Zhuge Feiyu added at last.
At least, he could hold on for a few more years without major issues.
