Chapter 2871: Delivering Heads!

After the war, Nanqi Giant City entered a rare period of peace.

Under the cover of night, several figures silently landed in the city lord's mansion.

“Are you sure Ye Yuan is in the side courtyard?” a man in black said in a deep voice.

“Yes, master! In the past few days, Ye Yuan has frequently visited Feng Xiaotian’s residence. Just this evening, this slave saw with his own eyes Ye Yuan enter the side courtyard and never come out! That big yellow ox never leaves his side, and today was no exception!” a human knelt and said.

“Heh heh, this kid can be proud even in death! To kill a mere Saint Emperor Heaven like him, our Dark Night has dispatched four Emperor Hao Tian and seven Emperor Yun Tian this time!” the man in black laughed eerily.

“Master is wise! Feng Xiaotian seemed to anticipate our attack on Ye Yuan, so he sent an Emperor Hao Tian expert to protect Ye Yuan closely,” the human said.

“Heh, no matter how much Feng Xiaotian calculates, he can’t foresee that we have planted so many blood slaves in Nanqi Giant City!” the man in black laughed.

The man in black, Lan Hui, was a high-ranking Emperor Shi Tian of Dark Night!

In Dark Night, every expert was extremely precious!

Every time these Dark Night members were transported into the Tianyi Continent, it came at a terrible cost.

Because the city’s grand formation was connected to the Absolute Heaven Barrier.

To enter, they had to pass through the city.

Therefore, to transport Dark Night members, a large-scale war had to be launched.

Imagine how difficult it was for Dark Night to break through the city-guarding formation and the Tianyi army!

The blood race and other races were clearly distinct.

Just as humans could not simulate the blood race’s aura, the blood race could not simulate the human aura.

However, the blood race could plant a blood mark on humans, turning them into blood slaves.

These Dark Night members gathered intelligence through these blood slaves.

But the screening in Nanqi Giant City was extremely strict, making it hard for blood slaves to infiltrate.

There were few blood slaves in Nanqi Giant City, and Dark Night had expended great effort to get them into the city.

Yet these blood slaves were not strong and held low status, unable to gather core secrets.

But this time, they finally came in handy!

Through a special formation, the blood slaves could directly summon the blood race into the city, bypassing the city-guarding formation’s detection.

Of course, they would only resort to such measures as a last resort.

Once exposed, they would be utterly destroyed!

Thus, to kill Ye Yuan, the Dark Night had truly spared no expense this time.

One Emperor Sakyamuni, four Emperor Haotians, seven Emperor Yuntians—they were assembled for a single fatal strike!

This was the full strength of a dark branch!

Lan Hui made a gesture, and the eleven Emperor-level experts stealthily made their way toward the detached residence where Ye Yuan was staying.

Ye Yuan's detached residence was utterly silent.

In the side room, a powerful aura enveloped the entire courtyard.

Lan Hui signaled one of the Emperor Haotians to go to the side room and engage that Emperor Haotian.

The other three were to deliver the killing blow to Ye Yuan.

As for Lan Hui, he was there to ensure everyone's safe retreat!

Although his strength was inferior to Feng Xiaotian's, after killing Ye Yuan, leading these people away would be a simple task.

Three!

Two!

One!

"Now!"

Lan Hui gave a cold shout, and the three Emperor Haotians instantly unleashed their full power.

When an Emperor Haotian strikes, how terrifying the momentum!

Before the blow even landed, the entire detached residence had already turned to dust.

The Emperor Haotian protecting Ye Yuan was immediately pinned down.

Boom!

With one strike, Lan Hui leveled the detached residence to the ground!

But the next moment, his eyes went wide.

Because Ye Yuan was standing there, perfectly fine and unharmed!

His full-force strike didn't even scratch a single hair!

"This... how is this possible!" Blue-Gray said in disbelief.

Ye Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Blue-Gray with a faint smile, and slowly spoke: "The Dark Night really went all out! One Emperor Sakra, four Emperor Hao Tian, seven Emperor Yun Tian. If all of you die here, even Dark Night would be crippled, wouldn't it? I wonder if the Throne will be hopping mad?"

As he spoke, "Ye Yuan's" appearance and aura underwent earth-shaking changes.

His momentum soared straight up, directly reaching Emperor Sakra!

Blue-Gray's pupils contracted sharply, and he exclaimed, "Feng... Feng Xiaotian! Impossible! What I sensed just now was clearly... clearly..."

"Clearly Ye Yuan, right?"

Feng Xiaotian smiled, and with a gentle flick of his fingertip, a tiny ethereal sword hovered in his palm.

The aura of that small sword was exactly the same as Ye Yuan's!

At Blue-Gray's level, one naturally wouldn't recognize someone by appearance, but by the unique aura each person carried.

Everyone's Dao is different, so everyone's aura is completely different.

Perfectly mimicking another person's aura was impossible.

But Ye Yuan could!

Before leaving, Ye Yuan forced out a wisp of Dao sword and gave it to Feng Xiaotian.

This Dao sword could perfectly conceal Feng Xiaotian's own aura, making him become Ye Yuan!

The purpose was to lure the enemy in.

Sure enough, Blue-Gray took the bait.

Blue-Gray's whole body trembled, and he said in disbelief, "This... how could it be?"

For this assassination, he had been as careful as possible.

He never expected to fail!

He never dreamed that Ye Yuan could have someone else perfectly disguise themselves as him!

Just how many tricks and trump cards did this guy have!

Feng Xiaotian laughed, "Your expression now is exactly the same as mine back then! Heh, since you're here, all of you stay!"

...

"What the hell is going on? Can someone tell me what the hell is going on!"

From the Blood God Hall came the roar of the Throne.

Yes, he was furious!

An entire hidden stronghold, completely wiped out!

One Emperor Sakra, four Emperor Hao Tian, seven Emperor Yun Tian!

How much had he spent to get these people into Tianyi?

And now, they were gone!

The key point was that Ye Yuan wasn't dead!

The next day, Ye Yuan was swaggering around Nanqi Giant City again.

His demeanor clearly told the Blood Clan: I'm not dead!

Even from billions of miles away, the Throne felt slapped in the face.

Because the order to kill Ye Yuan was his!

If not for his order, Blue-Gray wouldn't have sent out all his forces.

But the result was total annihilation!

What was more infuriating was that after the next day, Ye Yuan became even more arrogant, directly leaving the city!

And he only brought one Emperor Hao Tian guard.

It was as if he was saying, come on, kill me!

The Throne's order hadn't been revoked, so of course they had to kill!

Thus, several more waves of Dark Night came to assassinate Ye Yuan.

The result was still total annihilation!

However many came, that many died!

In just half a month, Dark Night lost two Emperor Sakra, twenty Emperor Hao Tian, and over seventy Emperor Yun Tian!

The Throne had completely gone mad!

He had no choice but to order the chief to stop the assassinations against Ye Yuan.

This was simply feeding the enemy!
