#6696 - No matter who you are
Within the valley, the roars of beasts and shouts of battle shook the heavens.
Rakshasa stood dumbfounded, having never seen such a large-scale battle before, and even more unable to comprehend where these mercenaries had come from.
Moreover, looking at the cold gazes of these mercenaries, the bloody aura on their bodies, and their perfect coordination, they were definitely different from ordinary mercenaries.
At this moment, the Antelope Clan's chieftain had already gathered all the Mixed Origin Realm experts and charged towards the valley's exit.
"Kill!"
With Ye Tiandao's order, the puppets beside him immediately shot out several arrows.
Before those demon beast experts could even get close, more than half of them were shot down.
Only the Antelope Clan chieftain, relying on the horn-blade on his head, managed to block the incoming arrows.
But the next moment, several Netherworld Puppets charged towards him together, their various weapons working in perfect coordination, all attacking him.
The Antelope Clan chieftain, unable to defend both front and back, was severely wounded by several weapons in the blink of an eye.
He also immediately entered a berserk state, lowering his blood-red eyes and exposing his horns to ram into the puppets.
But immediately, a puppet with a shield blocked his attack, and then several spears pierced into the antelope's body.
The Antelope Clan chieftain could only let out a mournful cry before falling to the ground, his breath gone.
The demon beast experts who had charged out with him were also almost simultaneously felled.
Ye Tiandao then led the Death Legion's soldiers to press forward,堵得死死的 blocking the exit tightly, and steadily advancing into the valley.
After half a day, the valley finally quieted down, with demon beast corpses lying all over the ground, blood flowing like a river.
But the Death Legion's soldiers suffered almost zero casualties and had already begun to clean up the battlefield.
Rakshasa watched the entire battle, without even having a chance to take action. She had not yet recovered from the shock.
Tens of thousands of demon beasts, enough to form a beast tide, were easily slaughtered by these mercenaries.
They didn't seem to have high cultivation levels, but their cold killing intent and coordination were too unexpected.
Moreover, these mercenaries' attitude towards Ye Liuyun was extremely respectful.
Rakshasa couldn't understand when Ye Liuyun had met so many mercenaries, and with such high status.
Ye Liuyun had already begun to recover his strength with the people around him, not going to clean up the battlefield, leaving the demon beast corpses to the Death Legion.
The Death Legion, after collecting all the corpses, immediately retreated, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Only Ye Liuyun and his group were left in the valley.
Rakshasa, feeling a mix of emotions, took the initiative to assume the responsibility of guarding, allowing Ye Liuyun and the others to recover in peace.
The commotion from Ye Liuyun's battle was too great, attracting the attention of martial cultivators hunting demon beasts in the surrounding area.
Rakshasa frowned upon seeing the martial cultivators gradually approaching from afar.
In the wilderness, martial cultivators were not as law-abiding as in the city; killing and plundering were common occurrences.
They had killed so many demon beasts here; those martial cultivators would definitely be tempted.
Although Ye Liuyun didn't take a single demon beast corpse, those martial cultivators wouldn't know.
They definitely wouldn't be able to explain this situation, and another battle would be inevitable.
Seeing that more and more martial cultivators were gathering, Rakshasa didn't dare to delay, and could only interrupt Ye Liuyun's cultivation, informing him of this news.
Ye Liuyun raised his eyes and looked outside with his Golden Pupils, but didn't get up.
"Don't worry about them; anyone who dares to come in will die!"
He casually instructed Rakshasa, and then continued to cultivate, secretly releasing the Demon Vine.
As soon as the Demon Vine came out, it disappeared into the ground. So many demon beasts, yet he didn't get a chance to attack; he could no longer restrain himself.
However, Ye Liuyun hadn't allowed him to act yet, so he could only lie in ambush for now.
Rakshasa, watching the Demon Vine disappear into the ground, couldn't help but sigh at how many tricks Ye Liuyun had.
Then, a young man stood out, with several Mixed Origin Initial Stage guards beside him.
This setup clearly indicated that he was a young master from a large family out for training.
"Everyone, I am Xiao Mingyi, the young master of the Xiao family of White Tiger Pass. I am willing to lead everyone to explore the valley ahead. Do you have any objections?"
The young man spoke proudly, then scanned the entire area.
"The Xiao family? That's a well-known power in White Tiger Pass!"
"This Xiao Mingyi is also a direct descendant of the Xiao family, heavily nurtured and highly valued!"
The martial cultivators hunting demon beasts here, whether mercenaries or not, all knew the situation within White Tiger Pass.
Who didn't know about large families like the Xiao family? Moreover, Xiao Mingyi was followed by several Mixed Origin Realm experts.
These rogue cultivators had no ability to object, whether in terms of status or martial strength.
So, after a brief silence, flattering voices immediately rang out, all willing to follow Xiao Mingyi's lead.
Although they also knew that they definitely wouldn't get the lion's share of the benefits, they hoped to get a little something.
Xiao Mingyi also had a look of triumph on his face, waving his hand and leading the martial cultivators at the scene towards the valley.
Only a few martial cultivators were unwilling to join in the fun, staying outside the valley to continue watching the show.
Entering the valley, Xiao Mingyi and the group of martial cultivators were shocked.
Just by looking at the bloodstains all over the ground, they could infer how many demon beasts had been killed here.
If these demon beast corpses all belonged to them, it would definitely be a windfall, and many people's eyes gleamed with greed.
"They're here!"
Rakshasa also spoke to remind everyone, causing them all to stop cultivating and look at the newcomers.
Ye Liuyun then stood up and sized up these martial cultivators. With his experience, he could tell what these people were like at a glance.
"How is everyone's recovery?"
He asked the crowd.
"I can fight another battle without any problems!" Lei Ming said eagerly.
The others also nodded, understanding what Ye Liuyun meant by asking.
"The leader is Xiao Mingyi, the young master of the Xiao family. The Xiao family is a well-known family in White Tiger Pass, with considerable strength.
Moreover, the Xiao family also has a Mixed Origin Fourth Level ancestor sitting guard…"
Rakshasa also understood Ye Liuyun's intention, immediately telling him about the Xiao family's power, fearing that he would recklessly kill Xiao Mingyi.
Before Ye Liuyun could finish listening, he asked the people around him: "Can you handle those two Mixed Origin Realm martial cultivators?"
"No problem!"
"Leave it to me!"
Chi Lian and Lei Ming spoke together. Long Nu also stood next to Lei Ming, obviously wanting to help Lei Ming.
Rakshasa sighed in her heart: "This guy is now going crazy with killing, daring to touch anyone!"
It's just that she had no say with Ye Liuyun, and could only helplessly follow.
Xiao Mingyi's group's gaze also fell on Ye Liuyun and his group at this moment.
Xiao Mingyi glanced at Ye Liuyun's group's clothes, and judged their status, his expression becoming arrogant again.
"I am Xiao Mingyi, the young master of the Xiao family. What happened here? Did you collect all the demon beast corpses? Tell me the truth!"
He spoke in a tone as if he were treating his slaves, not putting Ye Liuyun and his group in his eyes at all.
"Hmph, I don't care who you are; I'll kill you all the same!"
Ye Liuyun snorted coldly, brandishing his blade and taking the lead in the attack.
The people behind him immediately followed, and Rakshasa could only sigh and follow the attack.
Their group of seventeen, with fierce momentum, charged towards the nearly hundred people opposite them.
