Chapter 566: Chapter 566: The Army Approaches

"What, you’re starting to back off as soon as you hear it’s really going to be a fight against the Undying Blood Clan?"

Seeing Ye Kurong’s hesitation, Lord Grand Minister chuckled, "If that’s the case, you might as well step down!"

"The army of the Ministry of War is not a tool for you to show off in front of others!"

"I’ll go!"

Ye Kurong’s expression darkened slightly, "The Blood Nether Sea, is it? I’ll go then!"

At worst, he could carry out the mission first and then find a way to take care of that brat Lin Yi on the return journey!

"In this Holy War, attacking one’s own is strictly forbidden! Anyone found doing so will be dealt with by military law without exception!"

"I advise you not to harbor any crooked thoughts, otherwise not only will the Ministry of War take back the troops from your hand, but you will also be severely punished!"

It seemed that Lord Grand Minister had guessed Ye Kurong’s ill intentions, his words were full of warning, "Even the Grandmaster can’t protect you!"

"Lord Grand Minister worries too much, how could I attack my own people?"

Ye Kurong smiled, "As a subject of the Holy Dynasty, of course, I know the rules. How could I knowingly break the law?"

"That would be for the best."

Lord Grand Minister nodded, then tossed a Commander’s Seal to Ye Kurong.

"Thank you, Lord Grand Minister!"

Ye Kurong received the Commander’s Seal and immediately bowed to Grand Minister before he left the tent.

However, in his heart, he didn’t take Lord Grand Minister’s warning seriously at all. Rules were only for those without backing. For a noble aristocrat like him, how could he be bound by these rules?

That little punk Lin Yi dared to steal his woman, so he had only one path left—death!

...

Ye Kurong had just stepped out of the tent when Hao Yanluo and Kongfa Venerable came up to meet him, "How did it go?"

"How could this young master fail in anything he wishes to do?"

Ye Kurong said proudly, "Even if not for him, for the face of my grandfather the Grandmaster, the Grand Minister had to agree."

"It’s Brother Ye’s might, truly worthy of being the Grandmaster’s grandson."

A smile immediately appeared on Hao Yanluo’s face, "Since this is the case, we don’t have to be afraid of Lin Yi, we can directly confront him!"

"Not yet."

Ye Kurong waved his hand, "Apart from assigning me a troop of soldiers, the Grand Minister has also given me a mission to go to the Blood Nether Sea to deal with the Undying Blood Clan there."

"This mission is urgent, and there will be much military merit, so I must go to the Blood Nether Sea first."

"What, you’re going to the Blood Nether Sea?"

Hao Yanluo frowned, "Doesn’t that mean you can’t deal with that brat Lin Yi right away?"

"We can’t let that brat continue to grow stronger."

"It only gives him a few more days to live, what’s the big deal?"

Ye Kurong neither agreed nor disagreed, "Besides, with the troops of the Holy Dynasty by his side for now, it’s not convenient to move against him!"

"We can make our move after he returns the troops."

Having said that, Ye Kurong left with the forces of the Grandmaster Mansion.

Watching Ye Kurong’s departing figure, "This fool, doesn’t he know how much trouble that kid Lin Yi could be, and he still has the mood to talk about earning military achievements?"

Kongfa Venerable beside him said, "There is no blood feud between the Grandmaster Mansion and that kid Lin Yi, so of course he’s not in a hurry, but our Jiuyou Demon Hall is different, we’ve already sworn to death against him!"

"The Hall Master has issued a death order, we must take this opportunity of the Holy War to eradicate Lin Yi!"

"Let’s go!"

Hao Yanluo nodded and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes, "We don’t need that brat Ye Kurong to interfere; our Jiuyou Demon Hall will take care of eliminating Lin Yi ourselves!"

Besides him and Kongfa Venerable, their Demon Hall had brought a Semi-Saint and several Venerables to the Eastern Domain this time; getting rid of Lin Yi would be as easy as turning over one’s hand.

Otherwise, once that kid Lin Yi finds a backing, it will not be so easy to eliminate him then.

...

Eastern Domain.

Holy Mountain.

This place was the mountain range where the Holy Mansion, once one of the superpowers in the Eastern Domain, was located.

However, the Holy Mansion Main Courtyard was no longer as glorious as it used to be; it was already engulfed in the smoke of war.

The iron hoof of the Undying Blood Clan had descended upon the Holy Mansion Main Courtyard, and the vanguard of the Undying Blood Clan’s army was none other than the Martial Arts Academy, one of the East Domain Five Great Forces!

Just as Lin Yi had predicted, the Martial Arts Academy had been infiltrated by the Undying Blood Clan; upon the breakout of the great calamity of the Undying Blood Clan, it was the first to fall. Many of its high-ranking officials and disciples had become blood slaves of the Undying Blood Clan.

Now, they were even acting as the vanguard in the Undying Blood Clan’s attack on the Holy Mansion!

The entire Holy Mansion Main Courtyard was completely surrounded, with no way out, not even a bird could escape.

"Jin Duxing, your Holy Mansion is already like a turtle in a jar. If you don’t surrender now, once the Sect Protection Array is broken, your Holy Mansion will surely become a river of blood!"

At the forefront of the Martial Arts Academy soldiers besieging the Holy Mansion, there stood Institute Master Kun Yuanzi, staring at the front gate of the Holy Mansion and laughing loudly.

Jin Duxing was the name of the Holy Mansion Supreme Elder. As the only Venerable Realm presence of the Holy Mansion, Jin Duxing was undoubtedly the pillar of the Holy Mansion.

Once Jin Duxing decided to surrender, it was without question that the resistance of the Holy Mansion would collapse instantly.

But as the Holy Mansion Supreme Elder, how could Jin Duxing possibly be weak-willed? He spoke in a deep voice, "Do you think that the people of my Holy Mansion are like those of your Martial Arts Academy, who for the sake of survival, actually joined the Undying Blood Clan and became the scum of the Human Clan? It’s truly shameful!"

"Hehe, the wise adapt; the Undying Blood Clan army will soon sweep over the Eastern Domain, and the whole Eastern Domain will become the Undying Blood Clan’s territory. My Martial Arts Academy is merely going with the flow of fate."

Kun Yuanzi laughed coldly, without any shame, "Compared to being annihilated, pledging allegiance to the Undying Blood Clan allows us to at least preserve our Daoist lineage. Why not?"

"If your Holy Mansion is willing to surrender, I can forget past grievances and report to the Emperor of the Blood Sky Clan for you, seeking clemency. What do you think?"
