The mercenary leader Cheng Huofeng's training was interrupted and he quickly came out to check the situation.
His mercenary group is also well-known in Lone Peak City. He has never thought that anyone would dare to knock on the door. Moreover, he has not offended any big shots recently, and he can't figure out who is attacking him.
It wasn't until he came out to check and saw Chen Yueying that he immediately remembered the unsuccessful action that night. He immediately knew that he had encountered a ruthless person.
They just had the idea but didn't implement it, but the other party came to the door because of it. Obviously these people are not easy to talk to. Even if he goes out for peace talks now, he can't make the other party stop with just a few words.
Looking at the ferocity of their attacks, he immediately knew that they could not stop these people.
"Follow me and retreat!" He immediately decided to retreat first. So he only took the twenty or so mercenaries around him and retreated through another passage to the hidden cave entrance.
Most of the other mercenaries were left by him to block Ye Liuyun and others.
Ye Liuyun had also discovered him a long time ago, but there were too many mercenaries around, so he was not in a hurry to kill Cheng Huofeng.
"The robber leader escaped towards you with more than 20 mercenaries!" Ye Liuyun immediately contacted Qiongqi through the soul contract.
"Don't worry, everything has been arranged, they can't escape!" Qiongqi also replied to Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun also felt relieved, drew out the demon-slaying knife, and accelerated the speed of killing the mercenaries. He did not need to defend himself. The sharpness of the demon-slaying knife was one cut at a time, so fast that even Chi Lian had no time to absorb much bloodline power.
Xiao Lanbing only tried his best to absorb the souls of a few mercenaries. The rest of the mercenary souls could only be left to Suzaku to absorb.
The same goes for other monsters, and they are all killed very quickly. Even Luo Yu can fight against second-level mercenaries with weapons and armor.
Chen Yueying also became fierce at this time, using all her strength, one sword at a time, and finally found a sense of accomplishment. She also felt that she was already at a high level, and if she was no longer as good as these monsters in combat, she would be such a waste.
.
So after the battle, Ye Liuyun asked her inexplicably: "They are just ordinary mercenaries, why are you working so hard?"
"I...want to practice seriously!" Chen Yueying had no choice but to make up an excuse.
Ye Liuyun didn't go into details and immediately continued the arrangement: "Luo Yu, Bai Hu, Shi Yuan, and Xiao Lan Bing stayed to clean the battlefield. The Demon Lion went to the treasure house to get resources. The others will continue to chase after me. You will follow later."
Then he took the lead and chased in the direction where Cheng Huofeng escaped.
The mercenaries also set up some traps in that passage, but he destroyed them all with white light without any hindrance.
At this time, Cheng Huofeng was asking people to push away the big stone blocking the entrance of the cave, preparing to rush out of the cave.
Qiongqi only arranged two formations outside the cave, one was the illusion formation and the other was the trapping formation. However, this illusion formation coincided with the actual situation. Anyone who entered would fall into it without any feeling.
.
Qiongqi, Shadow and the Nine-Headed Demonic Dragon were all hiding in another formation he had arranged, watching the excitement from a distance.
Cheng Huofeng and others didn't know much about formations, and they couldn't tell the difference. After pushing away the big rocks, they all rushed into the illusion formation.
Then these people started running in circles. When Ye Liuyun and the others came to the entrance of the cave, they were still running in circles.
Qiongqi and the Nine-Headed Demonic Dragon had already emerged from the hidden formation and walked over and threw a token to Ye Liuyun to facilitate his entry and exit. The shadows were always invisible and monitoring those in the formation.
Cheng Huofeng and his people were inside the formation and could not see the situation outside at all.
"Wait for me here. Don't go any further, lest you fall into the formation. I'll deal with them!" Ye Liuyun told the others and walked into the formation himself.
As soon as he entered the formation, the consciousness of Cheng Huofeng and others immediately discovered him. In their opinion, they had run far away and Ye Liuyun suddenly appeared behind them.
"You have already killed quite a few of us. Why are you still here to hunt us down?" Cheng Huofeng immediately stopped running and led his men to surround Ye Liuyun.
This Cheng Huofeng has a thin figure and face, a hooked nose, and squinted small eyes. He looks like a sinister person.
Ye Liuyun didn't talk nonsense to him, and directly used the two red pupils on his soul to cast illusion spells on the martial arts cultivators on the left and right sides of Cheng Huofeng, causing them to attack Cheng Huofeng.
Cheng Huofeng's reaction was really fast. As soon as the two mercenaries made a move, he reacted quickly and immediately used his palm to blast one away, and then dodged the other mercenary's attack.
"The reaction is very fast!" Ye Liuyun sneered and continued to use the red eyes of the soul to influence Cheng Huofeng's movements.
As soon as his movements faltered, another mercenary caught up with him and knocked him away with a palm.
At this time, Ye Liuyun also drew out his demon-slaying knife and fought with the mercenaries who were rushing towards him.
The level of these mercenaries is not high. He can withstand all their attacks with his body, but with one strike of his sword, he can take away one or two lives.
"Soul attack!" A mercenary warned the others, taking the lead in releasing his own soul and rushing into Ye Liuyun's sea of ​​consciousness.
These mercenaries were very united. One person took the lead, and the others immediately followed. Everyone's souls rushed into Ye Liuyun's sea of ​​consciousness.
Several of Ye Liuyun's soul sources also began to busy throwing their souls into the soul refining cauldron.
Cheng Huofeng and the mercenary who injured him were able to wake up without Hong Tong's control over them while Ye Liuyun was busy dealing with the souls of other mercenaries.
The mercenary immediately pulled up Cheng Huofeng and tried to escape. Unfortunately, they were in the illusion formation and could not get away from Ye Liuyun. Ye Liuyun continued to use the red pupil illusion to affect both of them at the same time.
The soul power of these mercenaries was really weak. There was no one who could cultivate the soul source, not even Cheng Huofeng. So they were quickly controlled by the illusion created by Ye Liuyun's red pupils, and they all stopped.
Ye Liuyun asked them to put their souls into his sea of ​​consciousness, throw the mercenary's soul into the soul refining cauldron, and then search for Cheng Huofeng's soul.
After searching for souls, he suddenly discovered that it was really convenient to move around the south as a mercenary. Mercenaries were everywhere here and would not attract anyone's attention.
As for Cheng Huofeng, although his character is not good, he knows a lot about mercenaries. He is even familiar with many well-known mercenary groups in other cities in the south.
"Keep him for now, just treat him as a local guide!"
Thinking of this, Ye Liuyun directly planted a slave mark on him and put his soul back to let him live for a few more days.
