"Why don't we just kill them all? They're all mbers of the sa organisation anyway." Lei Ming posed his question.
"Yes! Let's just kill them all!" Ye Liuyun agreed.
At this point, Man Shu unleashed her Power of Ice, instantly freezing the guards charging towards them.
"Huh? This little girl does have sothing! I enjoy training strong people, hehe!" The city lord chuckled heartily.
Ye Liuyun and the others prepared their swords and began slaughtering without regard for etiquette. Ye Liuyun even released his clone to join the fight.
However, the city lord casually watched the conflict ensue while he embraced a woman.
The executor charged forward to strike Ye Liuyun.
He had achieved the early stages of the Third Realm and believed he could easily defeat Ye Liuyun.
However, with a single slash imbued with Spatial Force from Ye Liuyun, his body was severed in half.
"Sword Intention infused with Spatial Force isn't bad at all! But your power is still lacking!" The city lord enjoyed the watch as he praised from the side.
Ye Liuyun had long recognized his mid-stage developnt in the Fourth Realm. However, as he was not moving, Ye Liuyun decided to take advantage of this opportunity to practise with his group.
Then, over ten Third-Realm level guards charged forward, encircling Ye Liuyun and his n.
These guards were perfect for Ye Liuyun and his group to practice. They exerted all their strength in the combat.
After eventually eliminating these guards, Ye Liuyun and the others' genuine energy were almost depleted.
However, there were still a lot of soldiers outside the big hall. Within seconds, they were surrounded by yet another squad of almost ten guards.
Ye Liuyun could only recall Man Shu and the others returning to the Xuankong Stone, allowing them to recuperate while unleashing the Devil Vine.
The Devil Vine imdiately extended its tendrils, twining its way towards the city lord and his guards.
At this mont, soone within the city lord's mansion rang the alarm bell. Upon the sound of the bell, Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense detected the martial practitioners within, rushing toward them.
These people ca in all kinds and sizes, including the tavern's manager and servers, small business owners, patrolling troops, and regular civilians. Even beggars joined the crowd, who hurried over to defend the city lord's mansion.
"D*mn, no wonder the city lord said that the entire city was his! What's wrong with the civilians here?"
Ye Liuyun only knew about the city lord's involvent with the trade union but hadn't expected everyone in the city to be the city lord's accomplice.
Intrigued, Ye Liuyun drew out the city lord's soul for a quick search before the Devil Vine devoured him.
It turned out that the living conditions on the border were extrely harsh. The civilians needed to rely on a powerful force to maintain a stable living environnt.
Back then, the city lord, who had hundreds of bandits under him, was a notorious bandit leader.
As ti passed, more people relied on him, and he saw an opportunity to strike and seize control of the city. With it, the city's citizens ca to depend on him.
They usually relied on looting for profit, with so bandits' families establishing small businesses locally.
As a result of their sloth and gluttony, so people chose to be beggars, while won sold their bodies to make a living. The city lord benefited from the situation by setting up brothels here, which earned him a substantial amount of Alora crystals.
Ye Liuyun searched for the secret location where the city lord hid his resources before absorbing his soul.
"Kill! Kill as many as you can, the people in this city are all yours," Ye Liuyun adamantly instructed the Devil Vine.
With his granting, the Devil Vine ecstatically crawled rapidly and expanded throughout the city.
Fortunately, the city's population was negligible, covering only a small area. Otherwise, the vine wouldn't be long enough to engulf the entire region.
Ye Liuyun and his clone proceeded imdiately to the trade union they had recently visited to claim its resources.
After looting all the resources at the trade union, he and his clone moved their way to the brothels and restaurants. Alcohol, at reserves at the restaurants, and all of the Sacred Crystal inco were taken by him.
The city housed more than tens of thousands of civilians. They could never overco every citizen's resistance if they launched an attack from the outside. But it proved easier to attack from the inside out.
Despite being horrified by the vines, only a few civilians bolted out of the city in terror.
They knew the danger outside was just as great as the one inside. They would die anyway if they tried to flee the city by themselves.
Thus, most of them frantically fought against the Devil Vine and their resistance slowed down the Devil Vine's invasion.
"Every person here is just as desperate as the last, and it is terrifying. What a tragedy!"
Ye Liuyun was helpless, he had no choice but to continue his killing spree. Every person he t was bent on fighting him to death. He was forced to kill or he would be killed instead.
While the battle in the city was still ongoing, fighters like Lei Ming and the others had recuperated and regained their powers.
Once again Ye Liuyun released them to let them rejoin the fight.
After so ti, he returned to the city lord's mansion and, with the help of the Devil Vine, opened the basent door.
All sorts of valuables that the city lord had looted were stashed in the basent.
The city lord had robbed many trade unions, and the majority of the items were still present.
He couldn't keep track of how many Sacred Crystals there were. But it filled up multiple Interspatial Ring.
Everything in the city now practically belonged to Ye Liuyun.
Based on Ye Liuyun's estimations, they could sustain themselves for quite a while with the looting from this city.
Unfortunately, Ye Liuyun had only discovered three of the Alora Crystals here.
Lan Xin and Hua Xiangyuan, who helped him organize his Spatial World, were stunned.
"Who did we just rob? There are so many sacred crystals!" Hua Xiangyuan exclaid.
They even found an Interspatial Ring that was filled up with dium-grade Sacred Crystals.
In Immortal Realm, Ye Liuyun had seen this kind of dium-level sacred crystal. The energy it contained was equivalent to the power of a hundred lower-grade Sacred Crystals.
Ye Liuyun let out a frustrated sigh. "I bet this city lord is the richest person in the zone! How wealthy of him!"
Soon, Lei Ming and the others exhausted their genuine energy and had to return to their cultivation.
Ye Liuyun then conjured the Skeleton Golem to scour a few local stores for cultivation resources.
The city lay in ruins, ravaged by the Devil Vines, which had torn and grounded several business establishnts. Ye Liuyun was determined not to squander the few resources that were left.
"I discovered a batch of elixirs, master!" Ye Liuyun received word from the Devil Vine. Ye Liuyun sped over to find a facility designed to produce Spelling Elixir.
With so many corpses lying around, the air was heavy with the stench of blood.
Many elixirs were seen bagged and ready to be sold.
"Can you absorb these? Are there toxins inside?" Ye Liuyun asked the Devil Vine.
"That won't harm !" the Devil Vine confird.
"Then go ahead and consu it!" Ye Liuyun didn't concern himself further with it.
Ye Liuyun had no interest in selling them because he knew how destructive it would be to others if they got out. Thus, he rather not profit from it.
Gradually the city cald down, With indications of fighting diminishing until it ca to utter serenity.
After consuming a great deal of energy, the Devil Vine returned itself to the Xuankong Stone to hibernate.
In the Spatial World, Lan Xin and Hua Xiangyuan were busy dealing with piles of Interspatial Rings, sorting out the newly acquired cultivation resources.
Ye Liuyun's divine Divine Sense detected a great influx of starving refugees from outside the city.
They were mostly attracted by the pungent stench of blood.
