"What do you intend to do? Hahaha, I'm here to kill you, Ye Liuyun. Today is your death day." The man in black laughed sinisterly.

Ye Liuyun rolled her eyes and then asked a question.

"People from the Reverse Immortal Alliance?"

"Of course. Since you've been hit by my Myriad Manifestations, I won't hold back anymore. Anyway, you're going to die today. We can't do anything about your woman, but you were too careless. Your dojo didn't have any defensive measures at all." The woman readily admitted.

Seeing how confident this woman was, Ye Liuyun couldn't help but smile.

"So confident, huh? You should know my abilities, right?" Ye Liuyun said with a smile.

The woman chuckled upon hearing this.

“I am aware that you possess the fighting power to contend with someone at the first level of the Nascent Soul realm. After all, I have witnessed it with my own eyes. Since you dared to come and kill me, you must have made thorough preparations.”

"I'm not afraid to tell you, I specialize in illusion techniques and am skilled at destroying people's souls within illusions. Moreover, my soul power is stronger than my cultivation level, and you are currently trapped in my illusion. Here, I possess the power of the third level of the Nascent Soul realm, so killing you is naturally a piece of cake," the woman said confidently.

Indeed, with Ye Liuyun's current abilities, if she relies solely on herself and other means, she can at most contend against those at the second or third level of the Nascent Soul realm. She has no chance of winning.

Don't assume that the difference between the nine levels of the primordial spirit realm among human cultivators is not significant; in reality, the difference is substantial.

For example, a second-level Nascent Soul cultivator is more than twice as strong as a first-level Nascent Soul cultivator in every aspect. The Transformation Realm cultivates soul power, so the soul power of Transformation cultivators is precisely their advantage.

Ye Liuyun may have power comparable to the first or second level of the Nascent Soul realm, but he may not necessarily possess soul power comparable to that of someone in the Mystic Transformation realm.

Of course, this is only under normal circumstances. This woman does not know that Ye Liuyun's soul strength is stronger than his physical strength. If Ye Liuyun does not use other methods, his soul is probably at the second level of the Primordial Spirit Realm.

But it seems he still can't beat this woman.

"Alright, that's enough of the explanation. Let's get going. Who told you to be the husband of someone our Reverse Immortal Alliance is determined to kill? Killing you might not do much to Xuanmiao, but it will at least make her suffer for a while, and then we'll break one of her arms." As the woman spoke, she raised her hand, and a black aura began to spread from all directions toward Ye Liuyun's position.

This is an illusion, there's no way Ye Liuyun can escape it.

"Rest in peace, buried by darkness." The woman's eyes glowed red as she watched the black mist rapidly engulf Ye Liuyun.

Once this myriad phenomena are unleashed, only the living can awaken.

But it's strange that Ye Liuyun could fall for this illusion. After all, with Lin Qingyou on her side, spiritual attacks and illusion attacks shouldn't have any effect on her.

The woman watched as Ye Liuyun was swallowed by darkness and burst into wild laughter. In her mind, Ye Liuyun was doomed and had no hope of survival.

As the darkness faded, Ye Liuyun's figure vanished, as if swallowed by the darkness.

After confirming that Ye Liuyun no longer existed, the woman gave a cold laugh.

"Haha, don't blame me. If you had been more low-key and not so open with Xuanmiao, you might not have come into the sights of our Reverse Immortal Alliance. You are a typical example of 'the tallest tree in the forest catches the most wind.' Remember not to be too arrogant or high-profile in your next life." After saying this, the woman disappeared into the illusion.

Looking outside, the woman standing at the door slowly opened her eyes. She glanced at Ye Liuyun, who was no longer breathing in the room, and after confirming that Ye Liuyun had no vital signs, she turned and left.

However, what the woman didn't notice was that the moment she turned to leave, Ye Liuyun, who had previously shown no signs of life, suddenly opened his eyes.

She glanced at the woman who was leaving, and then immediately followed her.

Normally, a target attacked by this woman's methods would be annihilated in the illusion, but unfortunately, Ye Liuyun is a monster. Not only is her body immortal, but her soul is also indestructible.

"Master, what is this woman's actual cultivation level?" After Ye Liuyun consumed various hidden pills, and with Lin Qingyou's divine sense, she was able to follow the woman without her noticing.

"With the cultivation of the second level of the Nascent Soul Realm and the soul power of the third level of the Nascent Soul Realm, how about that? You've seen the power of a Nascent Soul cultivator, haven't you? If I hadn't reminded you, you wouldn't have had a chance to use the pills at all," Lin Qingyou said.

Lin Qingyou had already noticed the woman who had sneaked over, but she wanted Ye Liuyun to experience the power of a Nascent Soul cultivator and not be so confident, so she didn't tell Ye Liuyun, since there was no danger involved.

Besides, Ye Liuyun could only kill this guy by using Earth-rank and Heaven-rank magic treasures, or even the Illusion God Pill.

Even with Lin Qingyou's reminder, Ye Liuyun wouldn't be able to defeat this woman on his own. On the contrary, he might even expose his immortality and other tricks.

Unable to handle the situation himself, Ye Liuyun decided to use his immortality to confuse the woman.

This woman is a Nascent Soul cultivator, so she must be an elder of a certain faction within the Supreme Response Sect, and definitely a major traitor hidden within the sect.

If we could figure out this woman's identity and then follow the clues to find all the traitors within the Supreme Response Sect of the Rebellious Immortal Alliance, that would definitely be more worthwhile than simply eliminating her.

Ye Liuyun followed the woman all the way and finally arrived at the territory of the Supreme Response Sect's Heavenly Illusion Peak.

Tianhuan Peak belongs to the top 30 peaks of the Supreme Induction Sect. It is very powerful. The peak master is a cultivator at the sixth level of the Nascent Soul stage. In addition, there are three other Nascent Soul experts. The Supreme Induction Sect has more than 108 Nascent Soul cultivators.

The woman who assassinated Ye Liuyun should be one of the three elders of Tianhuan Peak. As for who she is, we'll have to wait until tomorrow. It's impossible for Ye Liuyun to come to Tianhuan Peak to kill someone so late at night.

However, she didn't want to reveal too much territory for the time being, so the best way was to find a way to stop it quietly and then use the Truth Pill to interrogate her.

Lin Qingyou has such abilities, but she doesn't have much spiritual power left and can't use it anymore, so Ye Liuyun has to use his own brain.

"Tianhuan Peak? Master, you've already memorized this woman's aura, haven't you?" Ye Liuyun asked.

"Yes, although this woman used a magic item to conceal her aura, unfortunately, this magic item is only of a level that can block the divine sense of a ninth-level Nascent Soul cultivator at most, but it can't stop me. As long as I see her again, I will definitely be able to recognize her," Lin Qingyou replied.

After receiving Lin Qingyou's nod, Ye Liuyun immediately turned around and left Tianhuan Peak to return to Medicine Peak.

As for the woman who assassinated Ye Liuyun, once she returned to her residence on Tianhuan Peak, she removed her disguise and revealed herself to be a charming and alluring woman.

This woman is the youngest elder of Tianhuan Peak, but not a core elder; she is just an ordinary elder. Her name is Liyue, and she has been an elder of Tianhuan Peak for nearly a thousand years.

She was an inside agent who infiltrated the Reverse Immortal Alliance a thousand years ago. Li Yue rose from a disciple to an elder step by step, and her background was clean. In addition, she had been a disciple for a thousand years, so no one would suspect her.

The Reverse Immortal Alliance will not activate her unless absolutely necessary.

Because once it's started, there's a risk of exposure, or at the very least, it will alert the enemy.

However, the Reverse Immortal Alliance was truly helpless. Ye Liuyun's performance was too outstanding, and they dared not let her live for too long. If they did not take advantage of the current gap in Ye Liuyun's defenses to kill her, she would only become a major enemy of their Reverse Immortal Alliance.

Li Yue felt she had successfully completed her mission, so she immediately took out her exclusive communication artifact with the Reverse Immortal Alliance.

"Alliance Leader, I have fulfilled my mission perfectly. I can confirm that Ye Liuyun has been completely annihilated, both in body and soul," Li Yue said into the communication device.

Meanwhile, at the headquarters of the Reverse Immortal Alliance, Tianyuan was overjoyed upon receiving the news. This was arguably the best mission they had accomplished among the spies infiltrating the Supreme Induction Sect.

"Liyue, you did a good job. Continue to lie low, and do not take any further action without orders," Tianyuan said happily.

And so the two lost contact. Li Yue immediately destroyed the communicator in her hand. This thing definitely couldn't be left on her person. Their Anti-Immortal Alliance was very strictly managed, and communication was always handled by temporarily dispatching peripheral members to place the communication artifacts in designated locations.

They didn't know who they were contacting, so Ye Liuyun didn't get any useful clues from those peripheral members last time.

Chapter 523 A Visit (5000 words)

Ye Liuyun returned at lightning speed, and upon her return, she began to ponder how to lure this traitor out of the Supreme Response Sect.

She had three reasons for wanting to lure people out.

First, she doesn't know who assassinated her. Even if she identified the target, there's no evidence to prove it was them. Tianhuan Peak is unlikely to believe her story alone. Besides, she's not dead yet. She can't very well tell the people at Tianhuan Peak that their elders killed her, can she? If she said that, the higher-ups at Tianhuan Peak would definitely think she's crazy.

Secondly, she currently has no way to kill him silently without making a fuss. If she were to forcefully use her treasure to kill him, she would probably put herself in a passive position, because it would definitely cause a great commotion.

Third, if this news is told to the higher-ups of the Supreme Response Sect, even if the Heavenly Ancestor and the others believe her because of Lin Aoxue, without any evidence, why should they believe her? Can she really confirm the identity of a Nascent Soul cultivator as an internal traitor with just a few words?

So after much thought, there are only two ways to resolve this matter: either find a way to control it privately, or lure out the Taishang Ganying Sect and eliminate it.

After experiencing this guy's methods, Ye Liuyun was very uneasy about him. If she had the chance to get close to Lin Aoxue, then Lin Aoxue would be in danger.

"Hey, I've got it! Doesn't this woman think I'm dead? It just so happens that a disciple from Tianhuan Peak is visiting me today and invited me to visit Tianhuan Peak. I might as well use this opportunity to have a reason to go to Tianhuan Peak. If this woman finds out I'm not dead, she'll definitely look for another chance to make a move. That way, the initiative will be in my hands." After thinking for a while, Ye Liuyun finally came up with a foolproof plan.

As for whether to kill or spare, that needs to be considered after we catch the person.

"Hehe! Tomorrow I'll show you what a real shock like a zombie coming back to life looks like." Ye Liuyun chuckled and then closed his eyes to sleep.

And so, the night passed, and no one knew that Ye Liuyun had been assassinated the night before; it seemed as if there had been no word of it at all.

If Ye Liuyun hadn't possessed immortality, this day next year would have been her death anniversary.

The next day, under the bright sun, Ye Liuyun comfortably stepped out of his room and stretched.

"Ah! It's almost time, the show is about to begin." Ye Liuyun sighed, then called Liusu and flew to Tianhuan Peak.

Then look at Li Yue on Tianhuan Peak. Li Yue has been waiting for news of Ye Liuyun's death. Ye Liuyun is Lin Aoxue's husband. If she dies, it will definitely be a major event that will shake the Supreme Response Sect.

It could even damage Lin Aoxue's relationship with the Taishang Ganying Sect, which would be killing two birds with one stone.

What puzzled Li Yue was that, under normal circumstances, news of such a big event should have been available by seven or eight in the morning.

It's already 10 a.m., and there's still no news.

"Strange, this shouldn't be the case. Why haven't we heard anything yet? Could it be that the matter is of great importance and the sect has blocked the news?" Li Yue had been waiting for the results at her residence since six in the morning.

The problem is, we waited from six o'clock to ten o'clock, and it felt like nothing had happened.

Meanwhile, Ye Liuyun was already on her way to Tianhuan Peak. She took out her identity token and contacted Xuan Shan, a direct disciple of Tianhuan Peak who had visited her yesterday.

"Miss Xuan Shan, I am Ye Liuyun. I am quite interested in illusion techniques and would like to come to your Tianhuan Peak to see what it's like. Is that feasible?" Ye Liuyun sent a message to Xuan Shan.

Xuan Shan, who was cultivating at her residence on Tianhuan Peak, was taken aback when she received the news.

She drank half a pot of spiritual wine yesterday, and was almost able to advance from the mid-stage of the Divine Intent Realm to the late-stage. So as soon as she returned, she went into seclusion to cultivate, planning to drink the other half of the spiritual wine in a few days. At that time, she should be able to break through her realm.

They just didn't expect Ye Liuyun to say he was coming to visit their Tianhuan Peak today.

This is definitely a big deal, and Xuan Shan certainly won't refuse. After all, her master said that Ye Liuyun is very likely to become the Grand Elder or Vice Leader of the Supreme Response Sect in the future, so she can only befriend him and not offend him.

Xuan Shan agreed without hesitation and immediately went to inform her master.

A few minutes later, in the main hall of the faction where Tianhuan Peak Master Tai Shu was located.

A young and beautiful woman dressed in a pink dress was quietly listening to Xuan Shan's story.

"Oh? Junior Brother Ye from Medicine Peak is coming. Strange, why did she suddenly decide to come to our Heavenly Illusion Peak?" Tai Shu's beautiful face showed considerable confusion, because her arrival was so sudden.

Upon hearing this, Xuan Shan quickly offered an explanation.

“Master, it was I who took the initiative to invite Martial Aunt Ye to visit our Tianhuan Peak yesterday. Didn’t you say that Martial Aunt Ye will have a very high status in the sect in the future, and that we need to be on good terms with her? In addition, Martial Aunt Ye said that she wanted to come to Tianhuan Peak to observe our illusion techniques, so I agreed,” Xuan Shan said.

Tai Shu was taken aback again after hearing her apprentice's explanation.

"Observe illusion techniques? No way, this Junior Brother Ye's combat strength is already strangely strong, could he also be skilled in illusion techniques?" Tai Shu looked surprised.

Xuan Shan didn't know, and she didn't need to think about it so much.

“Master, this is a great opportunity to get closer to Senior Uncle Ye. I think our Tianhuan Peak needs to take this seriously. I know that although our Tianhuan Peak is among the top thirty peaks, we are actually at the bottom. According to the current situation, we will probably fall to the middle thirty peaks sooner or later. If we can befriend Elder Ye, he might be able to help us if anything happens to Tianhuan Peak in the future.” Xuan Shan reminded him with a serious expression.

After hearing this, Tai Shu fell into deep thought. It was indeed a true statement.

Originally, Ye Liuyun was just an ordinary elder of Medicine Peak. When he came to Tianhuan Peak as a guest, it would have been fine for him to be received by an ordinary elder or disciple. But Ye Liuyun's identity was extraordinary, and he also had great potential.

Therefore, Tai Shu also needs to take Ye Liuyun seriously.

"Alright, I understand. Go and greet Elder Ye. I'll summon the other elders and important disciples right away." After thinking for a moment, Tai Shu decided to receive Ye Liuyun with the highest level of hospitality.

Upon hearing this, Xuan Shan immediately smiled, bowed, and turned to leave.

After watching her disciple leave, Tai Shu picked up her identity token and contacted the other elders, including Li Yue.

Li Yue is currently anxiously awaiting news, and she feels that every minute that has passed since this morning has been torture.

"Damn it, this can't be! Why haven't Tai Shu and the others notified me yet? Has something happened?" Li Yue couldn't understand at all.

But just then, her token finally responded.

She quickly picked up the token with a happy expression and checked the message, but upon seeing it, Li Yue froze, her pupils shrinking as if she had seen a ghost.

The information she received was not news of Ye Liuyun's assassination, but rather that Ye Liuyun, the second elder of Medicine Peak, had come to visit their Tianhuan Peak, and that Li Yue was to entertain the guest in the sect's main hall.

"How is this possible? Didn't I already kill her? What the hell? Could something have gone wrong?" Li Yue's face was extremely pale.

Although she was very confident that she had killed Ye Liuyun, the information Tai Shu sent her told her that Ye Liuyun might not be dead, and that this couldn't be fake.

Li Yue's heart tightened instantly, because if Ye Liuyun had managed to evade her killing move, then his sudden appearance at Tianhuan Peak today meant he was looking for her. This was the question that Li Yue was currently struggling with.

However, after thinking it over, she carefully read the message sent by Tai Shu.

"Could it be a coincidence? The person is still alive? And wants to come to our Heavenly Illusion Peak to observe illusion magic? This is too sudden, there must be something wrong with this." A huge sense of crisis arose in Li Yue's heart.

After a moment of hesitation, she suppressed her nervousness and walked toward the faction's main hall.

Because she didn't think she had left any flaws or evidence. Besides, even if Ye Liuyun knew that she had assassinated her last night, Li Yue could completely deny it without evidence.

She didn't believe that Tai Shu could conclude that she was the one who did it just based on Ye Liuyun's words, nor did she believe that the Supreme Response Church would deal with her without evidence, after all, she was a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Therefore, she must remain calm at this moment and not show the slightest bit of nervousness.

"Hmph! I'll see if you're a human or a ghost, or if someone is impersonating you to trick me." Li Yue took a deep breath and then went to the faction hall.

Looking at Ye Liuyun again, she had already arrived at the main gate of the Tianhuan Peak sect by speed, where Xuan Shan was currently waiting.

Ye Liuyun remained calm and composed, as if nothing had happened yesterday.

"Uncle Ye, you've arrived! Xuan Shan has been waiting here for a long time." Xuan Shan saw Ye Liuyun land and quickly stepped forward to greet him.

After landing, Ye Liuyun gave a polite reply.

"I'm sorry to bother you. To be honest, if you hadn't told me yesterday that your Tianhuan Peak is skilled in using soul power to cast illusions and invited me to visit Tianhuan Peak, I really wouldn't have had any reason to come to your Tianhuan Peak. I'm not afraid to tell you, besides being a body cultivator, I can also use illusions, but illusion techniques are very rare." Ye Liuyun said with a smile.
