Chapter 903: I Won't Keep You Company

"Pop, pop, pop..."

Ye Yuan waved his hand casually, and those bubbles burst with a soft sound, dissipating in the wind.

The two lords, Tiandang and Liehuo, saw that Ye Yuan was really going to destroy these bubbles, and their expressions changed drastically.

"Ye Yuan, are you sure you want to tear our faces apart with us?" Liehuo said with a dark face.

"Oh? Threatening me?"

Ye Yuan waved his hand again, and the bubbles burst even faster.

Tiandang quickly said, "Hold on! Five hundred it is! I'll buy six!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Yuan laughed and said, "Hehe, Lord Tiandang knows how things work. Cash on delivery."

Tiandang reluctantly took out three thousand Tianyuan Crystals and finally obtained six bubbles.

Liehuo's face was extremely ugly, but faced with Ye Yuan, he had no way out.

"Such a big appetite—be careful you don't choke!"

In the end, Liehuo very reluctantly took out five thousand Tianyuan Crystals.

"Little master here has always had a good appetite; I can digest it all," Ye Yuan said cheerfully as he took the Tianyuan Crystals, looking smug.

Lord Lengxue, watching from the side, secretly rejoiced. In comparison, his ten slots were a great bargain.

But he also knew that Lord Liehuo would not let Ye Yuan off. He would surely order his subordinates to kill Ye Yuan within the Dragon Emperor's territory.

What Ye Yuan had swallowed would eventually have to be spat out.

Lord Lengxue was no saint either; in such a situation, he didn't mind adding insult to injury.

Everything was ready, and the group of assassins was finally about to enter the Dragon Emperor's territory.

Lord Yousha struck the stone door with a stream of Yuan power, and the dragon on the stone door lit up brightly.

"Creak..."

The stone door slowly opened, revealing a pitch-black passage before everyone.

"Let's go!"

A group of assassins filed in and entered the passage.

"Ye Yuan, be careful later. I'm afraid Wu He and his men won't let you off. Although they've brought few people, they're all elites. We're no match for them," Shao Kai warned.

Ye Yuan smiled slightly upon hearing this and said, "If he doesn't come looking for trouble, he might live a while longer. But if he's asking for death, no one can stop him."

Shao Kai was stunned, not understanding where Ye Yuan's confidence came from.

Ye Yuan had only just entered the Heavenly Assassin Ranking; his strength was far inferior to these assassins.

"Better be careful! Once we pass this passage, it gets very dangerous inside. Those corpse guards are extremely troublesome. To get the treasures inside, you have to deal with them first," Shao Kai said.

Ye Yuan nodded, indicating he understood.

He had also heard that within the Dragon Emperor's territory, there were many corpse guards. These corpse guards were immortal and indestructible, with incredibly tough bodies, making them very troublesome.

Soon, everyone reached the end of the passage, and a great hall appeared before them.

"Everyone be careful! Those corpse guards will smell the living and attack soon."

Everyone summoned their weapons and advanced cautiously.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh..."

Shadows darted out and quickly surrounded the group.

The number of corpse guards was enormous, and they immediately engaged the assassins in battle.

Many of these assassins were top-ranked experts on the Heavenly Assassin Ranking, each with formidable strength.

Especially those at the front; with a single strike, they killed several corpse guards.

Although these corpse guards were strong, they were not at the ninth rank. The top-ranked Heavenly Assassin Ranking experts were mostly at the peak of the Formless Realm, so dealing with these corpse guards was naturally no problem.

Even so, casualties soon appeared.

"Ye Yuan, stay behind me and be careful!" Shao Kai said.

Si Yin had tasked him with protecting Ye Yuan, because Ye Yuan was too important to her.

Just as Shao Kai was about to charge forward and fight the corpse guards, Ye Yuan patted him on the shoulder from behind.

"Let them deal with these corpse guards. We'll go in first to find the treasure," Ye Yuan said with a smile.

Shao Kai said, "Are you kidding? There are corpse guards everywhere. How can we get in?"

Ye Yuan took out a bag of white powder and handed it to Shao Kai, saying, "Sprinkle it on our people. With this, the corpse guards won't attack us."

Saying this, Ye Yuan grabbed a handful and sprinkled it on himself. Then he swaggered into the midst of the corpse guards.

Shao Kai's eyes widened in disbelief as he watched the scene.

Those corpse guards seemed not to see Ye Yuan at all; they all bypassed him.

Shao Kai quickly came to his senses, sprinkled the powder on himself, and then sprinkled it on every one of their group.

"Ye Yuan, what... what is this powder? How can it be so miraculous?" Shao Kai asked incredulously.

The other assassins looked at Ye Yuan with admiration. While others were fighting desperately, their group of about ten people was strolling boldly among the corpse guards. It was truly miraculous.

Ye Yuan laughed and said, "This is called Corpse Powder. After sprinkling it, we emit the smell of a corpse. Those corpse guards locate their targets by the scent of the living. With the Corpse Powder on us, they'll think we're their kind and naturally won't attack us."

Shao Kai was stunned, then gave a thumbs up and praised, "These corpse guards are extremely troublesome. I heard that last time, half of the people who entered here died here. I never thought we wouldn't even have to fight."

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Fighting and killing—it's better to let others do that."

Since Ye Yuan was going to enter the Dragon Emperor's territory, he naturally asked Si Yin about the situation inside. So beforehand, he had made many preparations.

"Ye Yuan, how dare you go in first! I'll kill you!" Wu He discovered the anomaly in their group and couldn't help roaring.

But he could only shout; he himself was surrounded by three or four corpse guards and couldn't break free.

Seeing that the corpse guards didn't attack Ye Yuan at all, he was extremely displeased.

However, Wu He's shout woke everyone up, and they looked at Ye Yuan's group in surprise.

"Shao Kai, if you dare go in first, you'll be the enemy of everyone!"

"Ye Yuan, you'll die a miserable death!"

Seeing this, the crowd was both envious and afraid that Ye Yuan and his group would take all the good stuff first, so they could only threaten them this way.

But Ye Yuan didn't care about their threats at all.

Ye Yuan turned around and said with a smile, "Everyone, warm up a bit. We'll go in and scout ahead for you. Haha, as for fighting, I won't keep you company!"

With that, Ye Yuan leisurely continued walking inside.

"Ye Yuan, you'd better pray you don't fall into my hands, or else you'll die a horrible death!" Wu He roared.

But by then, Ye Yuan had already walked far away and couldn't be bothered to respond.

The great hall was filled with the sounds of battle. Although the assassins were strong, they couldn't break out of the encirclement anytime soon and could only watch helplessly as Ye Yuan and his group entered deeper inside.
