One by one, they looked at each other, but none of them felt any satisfaction from the death of the Soul Dominator’s Heir.
Only a deep fear filled the air.
Even Liu Shizeng was becoming afraid; the terrifying pressure of a Holy Martial Stage expert was absolutely unable to make Overlord Comrce retreat.
Otherwise, what can Willow Leaf Saint Manor use to resist them, leading to a disastrous end?
But with the Soul Dominator’s Heir now almost confird dead, can Overlord Comrce not retreat?
No, their retreat would still be a good thing.
Perhaps they would even put up a fierce fight against Willow Leaf Saint Manor, directly seizing the Domineering Soul Fragnt, and even Murong Jianyun ntioned they would co for them if sothing happened to the Soul Dominator’s Heir.
And then...
It’s now almost certain that the person who destroyed Willow Leaf Holy Tomb was an expert from Imperial Dragon Mountain at the Holy Martial Stage. Losing the Soul Dominator’s Heir, they have no ans to force a conversation with Imperial Dragon Mountain.
This ans the true cause of Ancestor Han Long’s death has completely beco impossible to explain with the death of the Soul Dominator’s Heir.
Now they’re left without evidence, unable even to claim they were coerced by the Soul Dominator’s Heir.
"Manor Master, what should we do?"
The Willow Leaf Core Characters realized the importance of the matter, all anxiously looking toward Ye Wushen, hoping he could co up with a foolproof solution, hoping he could resolve the imminent crisis.
However, Ye Wushen’s complexion was even paler than theirs, practically envisioning the destruction of Willow Leaf Saint Manor.
But suddenly, he looked at the contents of the letter, his body slightly trembling as he said, "The letter states that our people have completely sealed off the ruins of the Holy Tomb, aning, apart from us, no one knows yet about the death of the Soul Dominator’s Heir."
Listening to Ye Wushen’s words, Willow Leaf Hall was extraordinarily quiet.
Ye Wushen continued speaking, "I will have our people bring back the body of the Soul Dominator’s Heir, and we will tell no one, directly deceiving those two Earth Decision Makers from Overlord Comrce."
Hearing these words, everyone looked at each other again...
At this point, Liu Shizeng stepped forward, saying, "Manor Master, the Life Lamp of the Soul Dominator’s Heir will shatter."
As he spoke, Ye Wuyu and Ye Wukui nodded heavily.
They didn’t believe Overlord Comrce wouldn’t have Sikong Jing’s Life Lamp; this matter was definitely impossible to conceal.
But Ye Wushen hoarsely said, "We must gamble, gamble that the Life Lamp of the Soul Dominator’s Heir is only in Murong Jianyun’s possession, and that the Earth Decision Makers from Batian Branch don’t have his Life Lamp."
"Then, we use the destruction of Willow Leaf Holy Tomb as a reason for full city lockdown, blocking all ssage Bird communications."
As long as we block the ssage Bird communications, then the news of the Soul Dominator’s Heir’s death won’t reach Leng Chan and the others.
If Overlord City sends people, no matter how fast, it will take more than ten days.
"This way, we can conceal the shattering of the Soul Dominator’s Heir’s Life Lamp from the Overlord Comrce people in Willow Leaf City for ten days while we continue negotiations to bind them tightly with us."
"As long as they have soone die at the hands of Imperial Dragon Mountain, they’re bound with us."
"Then they must stand with us to resist Imperial Dragon Mountain, impossible to retreat."
"Even if Murong Jianyun cos to question us in ten days, he has to deal with Imperial Dragon Mountain first, and we can argue that the Soul Dominator’s Heir was killed by the Holy Martial Stage expert from Imperial Dragon Mountain."
With Ye Wushen’s analysis, everyone thoroughly understood.
They’d bind Leng Chan, Old Xin, and others within Willow Leaf City, forcing them to take action, forcing them not to leave...
They’re creating a ti gap, ten days before Murong Jianyun can arrive in Willow Leaf City, while within those ten days, Imperial Dragon Mountain’s Holy Martial Stage expert will surely arrive, binding them.
In simple terms, before the news of the Soul Dominator’s Heir’s death appears, they’re forcing Batian Branch to stand shoulder to shoulder with Willow Leaf Saint Manor in battle.
"Of course, the premise is that Batian Branch in Willow Leaf City doesn’t have the Life Lamp of the Soul Dominator’s Heir."
"And they definitely won’t have it, otherwise they should’ve already co searching for us. The Soul Dominator’s Heir has been dead for half a day."
Hearing these words, everyone slightly trembled...
Indeed, if they had the Life Lamp of the Soul Dominator’s Heir, they would have co imdiately, and perhaps Su Yuexi and others would have co crying, regardless of other plans, definitely intending to leave the city.
But currently, Batian Branch has no intelligence, seemingly very quiet.
Thus, Ye Wushen began issuing various orders, bringing back the body of the Soul Dominator’s Heir, sealing the interior and exterior of Willow Leaf City, ensuring no ssage Bird could enter or leave, while urgently gathering Leng Chan and others for discussion...
At this mont, Ye Wuyu bewilderedly asked, "Brother, why bring back the body of the Soul Dominator’s Heir?"
Upon hearing this, the tense crowd regained awareness, sowhat puzzled...
Destroying the body directly wouldn’t be better?
Ye Wushen, however, suddenly pulled his lips, speaking lowly, "If we eventually break with Overlord Comrce, we can use the body of the Soul Dominator’s Heir to beg rcy from Imperial Dragon Mountain, and simultaneously surrender the two pieces of Qianyuan Soldier Fragnt and Ye Zhenglong’s family."
As soon as Ye Wushen said this, everyone echoed, found it reasonable, deciding that if they couldn’t win, begging for survival was the only path.
However, no matter the truth, they forgot their ancestor’s tomb was desecrated; they ought to fight to the death.
But, in their core, such resolve was absent, survival took precedence.
"Moreover, possessing the body of the Soul Dominator’s Heir might compel Ye Zhenglong to return foolishly."
Upon hearing Ye Wushen’s further insight, everyone’s eyes lit up...
Su Zhenglong is the key to their Qianyuan Soldier Fragnt; if they want to plead with Imperial Dragon Mountain, he must be present—they cannot allow him to be taken by Overlord Comrce. The body of the Soul Dominator’s Heir might play a vital role.
In summary, these are re contingencies; they don’t wish to break with Overlord Comrce yet.
...
anwhile, within the Batian Branch of Willow Leaf City.
Leng Chan, Leng Sha, and the Four Great Devils, among others, all received news of the destruction of Willow Leaf Holy Tomb, each secretly anxious, yet their assumptions differed from Ye Wushen’s.
Previously, Leng Sha received a ssage from Sikong Jing, already aware that Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall had appeared.
Thus, they suspected Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall was the one destroying Willow Leaf Holy Tomb.
"Sha’er, can you still receive your master’s ssages?" Leng Chan asked with deep concern.
Leng Sha shook his head gently upon hearing...
He also worried terribly, utterly ignorant of events at Willow Leaf Holy Tomb, knowing only of its destruction, followed by Willow Leaf Saint Manor sealing the tomb, with no further information.
And Ye Wushen speculated correctly, they didn’t possess Sikong Jing’s Life Lamp.
But then, suddenly... chirp!
A ssage Bird suddenly appeared in Leng Sha’s hand, his body shook violently as he promptly opened the letter, peeking inside; imdiately, Leng Sha let out a long breath, then smiled, "Grandfather, my master is fine."
"However, for now, this news is only for us, not to be shared with anyone."
This ssage Leng Sha received was exactly from Sikong Jing before setting off for Nidao City.
Of course, he had to report safety to Leng Sha and the others first!
At this point, with Ye Wushen’s orders freshly issued, the transmission of ssage Birds had not yet been obstructed outside the city.
