"So you're Su Fei!"
Hearing Ye Yunfei's words, the high-level members of the Corpse World were all taken aback.
They had, of course, heard of Su Fei!
In fact, not long ago, when three of the Corpse World's old corpses had vanished near the Land of Life and Death, their headquarters had sent word for the Corpse World forces stationed here to be on the lookout for a youngster called Su Fei.
Who would have thought he was standing right before them now!
"Now you know why I destroyed your Corpse-Nourishing Lands and Corpse Nurturing Pools.
You of the Corpse World dared provoke me. Naturally, I won't be polite."
Ye Yunfei said with a cold laugh.
"Boy, our Corpse World has stood tall in the Primordial Continent for endless ages. No junior has ever dared challenge us like this!
Today, the Land of Life and Death will be your burial ground.
Don't worry, I'll leave your body intact. I'll refine you into a walking corpse, to be enslaved for all eternity, forever denied the chance of rebirth and Samsara!"
Elder Yin said through gnashed teeth.
"Brother Su, the strength of those two old men is formidable. We may not be a match!
Mind Star Realm experts are terrifying. We should find a chance to slip away quickly."
Situ Kong'er gazed at the two Corpse World elders and sent a Sound Transmission to Ye Yunfei.
It wasn't just Situ Kong'er; the green-robed elder and the old corpse also seemed deeply apprehensive of the two Corpse World elders.
"Don't worry. I'll deal with those two old fogies myself.
And even if we can't defeat them, I'm confident in getting all of us away safely.
Just trust me."
Ye Yunfei replied via Sound Transmission.
Hearing Ye Yunfei's words, Situ Kong'er, the green-robed elder, and the old corpse felt somewhat reassured.
Right at that moment.
"Attack!"
Elder Qiu waved his hand, and dozens of Tribulation Birth Realm experts surged forward.
"The three of you, attack together."
Ye Yunfei commanded softly.
Situ Kong'er, the green-robed elder, and the old corpse charged out simultaneously to meet the Corpse World's Tribulation Birth Realm experts.
With a thought, Ye Yunfei teleported eleven old corpses out from the Phantom Tower. They charged towards the Corpse World's Tribulation Birth Realm experts with astonishing speed.
Ye Yunfei had subdued three old corpses before entering the Land of Life and Death, and had just gained control of eight more within the Number One Corpse Refining Grotto, making a total of eleven!
The combat strength of these eleven old corpses was astounding, each equivalent to a mid-stage or even late-stage Tribulation Birth Realm expert.
Moreover, they possessed immense strength, abnormally tough bodies practically unimpeded by common weapons, and fought without regard for life or death. Their battle prowess far exceeded that of ordinary experts at the same level.
With the addition of these dozen-odd old corpses to the fight, the Corpse World's Tribulation Birth Realm experts were forced to retreat step by step, falling into a disadvantageous position.
Since Ye Yunfei had killed many of the Corpse World's Tribulation Birth Realm experts earlier, few remained now.
"Elders, look! Those are our Corpse World's three previously missing old corpses, along with the eight from the Number One Corpse Refining Grotto! They've all been controlled by this brat!"
"This kid actually knows corpse control techniques!"
...
Witnessing this, the Corpse World experts were both shocked and furious.
"Everyone, attack together!
Let's see how many they can fight!"
Elder Qiu's face darkened as he roared.
"Kill!"
Hearing the order, the Corpse World forces surrounding them shouted in unison and surged forward like a tide.
"Want to win by numbers? Pity my forces have arrived as well."
Ye Yunfei sneered coldly.
"Master, we are here!"
"Master has ordered us to attack together!"
...
At that moment, wave after wave of troops charged forth from all directions, their battle cries like thunder.
These troops were also from the Corpse World, except they had all become Ye Yunfei's slaves.
In moments, vast swathes of troops, like a locust swarm, densely packed, tightly sealed off the entire swamp area.
The newly-arrived Corpse World forces madly encircled and attacked the troops brought by the two elders.
It looked as if the Corpse World's own forces were fighting each other.
Moreover, since both sides' attire, aura, and cultivation techniques were practically identical, they were now mixed together, making it hard to distinguish friend from foe.
Those among Ye Yunfei's slaves who kept shouting "Master" could easily recognize each other.
The original Corpse World forces suffered. At a glance, everyone around them seemed to be on their own side. They simply didn't know whom to attack. And before they could react, a group of 'allies' around them would launch frenzied surprise attacks.
On top of that, Ye Yunfei's slaves vastly outnumbered the enemy, several times their count!
So, before the two Corpse World elders could even grasp what was happening, more than half of the troops they had brought were slain!
"Stop! What are you doing? Why are you killing your own people!"
Seeing such a scene, the two elders were both shocked and enraged, roaring furiously.
"What are you two old fools yelling about!
Who said we're your people? We all belong to the Master!"
Some of Ye Yunfei's slaves pointed at the two Corpse World elders and cursed loudly.
"You dare betray the Corpse World!
I'll kill you damn traitors!"
The two Corpse World elders finally understood—these people before them had betrayed the Corpse World. Shock and fury washed over them.
For so many to betray the Corpse World together was utterly bizarre!
And to think, all these Corpse World forces stationed in the Land of Life and Death belonged to these two elders' command!
Having so many of their own subordinates rebel made the two elders turn livid with rage, their fury reaching the heavens!
Boom!
Elder Qiu swept his palm outward. A pitch-black palm seal brimming with thick corpse energy materialized and annihilated a group of Ye Yunfei's slave forces in the blink of an eye.
Bang!
Elder Yin produced a strange, black-and-white staff. Sweeping it out, wherever it passed, Ye Yunfei's slaves shattered upon impact, large swathes killed instantly.
These two Corpse World elders were Mind Star Realm experts, their combat power terrifying. Dealing with ordinary Corpse World forces was like two ferocious tigers slaughtering a swarm of ants.
"All forces, retreat!"
Seeing this, Ye Yunfei immediately issued the command.
He knew that if he let these two Corpse World elders continue, all the slaves he had painstakingly subdued might be wiped out in moments!
"Let's kill Su Fei first. He is the core of this!
After killing him, we can settle the score for these traitors' betrayal!"
Elder Yin said to Elder Qiu.
"Good!"
Elder Qiu nodded.
Now calmer, both Corpse World elders fixed their gazes on Ye Yunfei.
With such a massive number of defectors, the two elders understood that slaughtering them all would be a tremendous loss for the Corpse World.
Moreover, for so many to betray together was far too bizarre, practically impossible.
These two elders understood: the core of the matter lay with Ye Yunfei!
By now, all the slaves had gathered behind Ye Yunfei.
Situ Kong'er, the green-robed elder, and the twelve old corpses were still locked in fierce combat with the Corpse World's Tribulation Birth Realm experts.
The Corpse World's Tribulation Birth Realm experts were being forced back step by step, in a sorry state.
"Boy, prepare to die!"
Elder Qiu took a step forward, advancing towards Ye Yunfei, murderous intent thick in his voice.
