Forced to become a pure and innocent female pharmacist in order to cultivate immortality.

Wu Bingyuan looked at Ye Liuyun and then at the Reincarnation Saint Lord and the others. He didn't know how to put it.

The other Holy Lords also had their own thoughts and knew exactly what was going on. The five Holy Lands deliberately brought this matter to the Dao Alliance so that they could put pressure on the Immortal Realm of Longevity.

After thinking for a moment, Wu Bingyuan finally spoke.

"Lord Ye, congratulations on emerging from seclusion. During your five hundred years of seclusion, the world has undergone earth-shattering changes," Wu Bingyuan said to Ye Liuyun with a smile.

Ye Liuyun replied, feigning embarrassment.

"Ah! I have indeed been in seclusion for quite a while. I didn't expect it to be this long. By the way, what is the purpose of summoning us here by Alliance Leader Wu?"

Seeing Ye Liuyun feigning ignorance, Wu Bingyuan knew that this matter would not be so easy to resolve.

“Ahem! Something big has happened. The Samsara Holy Land, the Ziyang Holy Land, the Xingyao Holy Land, the Zuoqiu Family, and the Liancheng Family all say that fourteen major forces within their territories vanished overnight. The five families suspect that some evil force is secretly undermining the unity of the human race, so I invited you all here to ask if you have any clues?” Wu Bingyuan asked.

Ye Liuyun found Wu Bingyuan's roundabout way of speaking amusing, but at the same time felt a little sorry for him. She knew that the five holy lands couldn't find any evidence, so they sent the Dao Alliance to be the pioneers.

Such a big thing was already known to the other holy lands. Their first reaction was that Ye Liuyun was responsible. But they also knew that the five major alliances deserved it. Back then, fourteen people from Yunduan were surrounded and killed by unknown cultivators in their territory. Xue Qingwu asked Wu Bingyuan to help investigate. Wu Bingyuan found out that the five major holy lands were responsible, but they just said one thing: "I don't know. It has nothing to do with me."

They just refuse to admit it, and without evidence, it's difficult to even condemn them.

"Oh, really? Now that Alliance Leader Wu has mentioned this matter, I happen to have something on my own. I hope Alliance Leader Wu and all the Holy Lords can help judge this." Ye Liuyun claimed to know nothing about it and even tried to turn the tables.

After Ye Liuyun finished speaking, he didn't care about the reactions of the crowd. He simply raised his hand and started playing more than a dozen projections.

The projection was showing the conversation between the dozen or so leaders of the various factions and the envoys of the five holy lands, along with the audio. Everyone knew exactly what they were saying.

When the five holy land lords saw the projection, their pupils contracted, and their faces turned a deep liver color.

These projections were naturally related to the conspiracy between the five holy lands and fourteen major forces to assassinate the fourteen disciples of Yunduan.

"It's fake, it's a forgery, it's a frame-up!" After looking at it for a while, the Star Radiance Saint Master couldn't hold back any longer and stood up on the spot, shouting angrily.

This Starry Saint Lord is quite an impatient person.

The four members of the Samsara Saint Lord were speechless at the Star Radiance Saint Lord's anxious appearance.

They thought to themselves, "You're acting so anxious, isn't that a tacit admission that you did it?" They felt that this Star Glory Saint Lord was a terrible teammate.

Ye Liuyun didn't say much, but continued playing until all the projections were finished before speaking.

"Alright, that's all. Everyone, tell me, are the fourteen projections I obtained real or fake? As soon as I came out of seclusion, Sister Qingwu told me that fourteen of our outstanding disciples were ambushed and killed on their way to visit relatives. They reported it to the Dao Alliance and asked them to investigate, but they found nothing. So I couldn't help but investigate it myself and that's how I obtained these things."

Now that things have come to this, the Reincarnation Saint Lord and the others can no longer simply listen to what Ye Liuyun says. They know that Ye Liuyun must have used various methods to extract this information after capturing these fourteen forces.

“Lord Ye, these things must have been done by someone with ulterior motives. We didn’t do anything so despicable. You can’t just believe one side of the story. Oh, and these images I’m looking at are exactly the images of those fourteen disappeared sects, right? I’m very curious, how did you get these things? Did you capture the people from those fourteen sects?” the Reincarnation Saint Lord asked.

Ye Liuyun knew that the other party had begun to attack, so he said with an innocent look on his face.

"Huh? I caught it? I don't have that ability. This thing was secretly given to me by a mysterious person. As for who that person is, I can't tell you."

Ye Liuyun's ability to lie through his teeth made Wu Bingyuan's face twitch involuntarily.

"Everyone, don't you want to share your thoughts? With the return of the demon race, the major forces of our Flying Immortal Domain cannot afford to fight amongst themselves at this time. If we both suffer heavy losses and give the demon race an opportunity to take advantage, then we would be sinners against the human race." Wu Bingyuan put a heavy label on everyone.

Since Wu Bingyuan has made it clear, the holy masters of the other holy lands will definitely have to say something in return.

"Alright, alright, Venerable Ye, and Fellow Daoist Samsara, all five of you, stop pretending to be ignorant. We are actually aware of the conflict between your two families. If it were five hundred years ago, we might have turned a blind eye, but given the current situation, I simply cannot pretend not to see it."

"I think if you have anything to say, why don't you just say it all today and settle it here once and for all? There's no point in scheming against each other like this," said the Holy Lord of the Nine Luminaries Holy Land.

Subsequently, the other neutral Holy Lords also spoke up to persuade Ye Liuyun and the Five Holy Alliance to speak frankly and openly.

If you want war, just say so; if you want peace, just say so. If you say nothing at all, aren't you just making fun of them?

Seeing that the Holy Lords had expressed their opinions, Ye Liuyun no longer tried to hide anything.

"Alright, I admit it. I'm the one who arrested these fourteen forces. But don't worry, none of their members are missing and they're all alive and well. As you all know, ever since my Immortal Realm moved to the Flying Immortal Domain, these five forces have never been friendly to us. Star Radiance Saint Lord, have you been thinking about how to destroy our Immortal Realm? Now that we've come this far, stop hiding your intentions. It's pointless." Ye Liuyun provoked him on the spot.

The Starry Saint Lord is an impatient person by nature. If he didn't respond when Ye Liuyun provoked him to his face, it would definitely not be in line with his character.

"Hmph! Young girl, that's right, we killed those people. They were traitors among our five major powers. What, can't we kill them? Can't we clean house? Who told them to be so stupid? They had already joined the Immortal Realm of Longevity, yet they still accepted the invitation from their original sects. Such stupid people deserved to die." Star Radiance Saint Lord sneered.

"That's right, Ye Liuyun, you greenhorn, you used some tricks to first seize the Taiji Holy Land ruins, and then you used unreasonable reasons to seize the territory of our five families. Do you really think that our five holy lands are afraid of you?" The Zuoqiu family head also stood up and snorted coldly.

Once these two families spoke up, the three families, including the Holy Lord of Reincarnation, had no room for compromise. They hadn't expected Ye Liuyun to obtain evidence so quickly, making it difficult for him to deny it. After all, if they were willing to investigate, they would definitely be able to find out that those people were elders of their holy land.

They couldn't possibly go back and kill these elders just to play dumb, could they? They wouldn't do something so self-serving.

"Since Lord Ye has made things clear, we have nothing more to say. Alliance Leader Wu, starting today, our five families will withdraw from the Dao Alliance and declare hostility towards the Immortal Realm of Longevity. This way, you won't have to make things difficult for us," the Holy Lord of Reincarnation announced as he stood up.

Wu Bingyuan and the others' expressions immediately changed, but they did not continue to persuade him. Even Wu Bingyuan did not try to persuade him, because the two families were already at odds. Rather than letting them scheme in secret, it would be better to have a fair fight.

"Well! Since all five of you have said so, then I have nothing more to say. Do as you please," Wu Bingyuan said.

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun burst into laughter.

"Fine, let's fight. You think my Immortal Realm is afraid of your five families? We'll see. Alliance Leader Wu, we'll head back now." Ye Liuyun said goodbye, then turned and left with Xue Qingwu.

After Xue Qingwu and Ye Liu left, the five families handed over their Dao Alliance core member tokens and left without looking back.

The war between the six families certainly wouldn't reach the territories of the other holy lands, because these five families formed a five-cornered encirclement of the Immortal Realm.

After the families from the Immortal Realm of Immortality and the Holy Land of Reincarnation left, the Wang family and the Jin family exchanged glances.

"Now that we have a result, we'll head back. This is a big deal, and we need to go back and discuss it with the higher-ups." The Wang family head left with these words.

The rest of the people also left one after another, but before leaving, the head of the Jin family came to Wu Bingyuan with a smile.

"Alliance Leader Wu, I have something good to show you. After you see it, you definitely won't want the Immortal Realm to lose to those five families." The Jin family head placed a jade slip in front of Wu Bingyuan.

Wu Bingyuan was taken aback. After everyone left, he picked up the jade slip and glanced at it. As soon as he saw it, his expression turned ugly.

"Damn it." Wu Bingyuan crushed the jade slip on the spot.

As for the five holy lands, as soon as they returned home, they immediately convened a meeting of their leaders to discuss how to destroy the Immortal Realm of Immortality and declare it a mortal enemy.

This is a legitimate declaration of hostility. Once the declaration is made, the two sides and their affiliated forces will fight each other without anyone stopping them.

After Ye Liuyun and Xue Qingwu returned, they also announced this matter.

The Holy Lord's Palace in the Immortal Realm of Immortality.

"Everyone, we, the Immortal Realm of Longevity, have already broken ties with the Five Saints Alliance at the Dao Alliance Conference. From now on, we are enemies. Notify the affiliated forces within the Immortal Realm of Longevity to activate the mountain-protecting formations at any time starting today and patrol the border. Their losses will be replenished by the Immortal Realm of Longevity," Ye Liuyun commanded.

When this news came out, some people were saddened while others were happy.

"Great! Finally, we can take action openly. For the past few hundred years, those five families have been restricting the development of our Immortal Realm. If it weren't for our good relationship with the Jin family, our Immortal Realm would have been short of resources long ago," an elder said.

"This? One against five? Your Majesty, are you perhaps overthinking this? If things really come to a head, what are our chances of winning?" the Grand Elder asked.

They didn't know much about Ye Liuyun's background, so they lacked confidence.

Because they had never heard of any holy land winning against five opponents in a one-on-five battle. Even the current Wang family dared not say that they could win against the five families of the Samsara Holy Land in a one-on-five death match.

Ye Liuyun understood their concerns, so he spoke up.

"The Reincarnation God of the Sacred Land of Reincarnation is no longer here."

This news is quite explosive.

"What? The Heavenly God of the Sacred Land of Reincarnation is gone? This? How did you know, Your Excellency?" Everyone was extremely surprised.

The reason they were worried was that the Sacred Land of Reincarnation had a flawless celestial being, while their strongest being in the Immortal Realm of Longevity was Xue Qingwu, who was in the mid-stage of the Celestial Realm.

Although they also possessed imperial weapons, the opposing five families all had them. Moreover, the opposing side also had two slumbering celestial gods, making this a confrontation with no suspense whatsoever.

But now that this flawless god is gone, their confidence has naturally increased.

"Hehe, you don't know, do you? Five hundred years ago, the Samsara Holy Land invited me to participate in their Samsara Secret Realm. They sent the Samsara God to kill me in the secret realm. Unfortunately, I have some tricks up my sleeve. Not only did they not kill me, but I also killed them instead. Of course, you probably don't believe me, so I'll show you the evidence." Ye Liuyun waved his hand.

Then, several divine weapons and the Samsara Scripture from the Samsara Holy Land flew to the crowd. Many of these items were iconic of the Samsara Holy Land, and any cultivator who had spent a thousand years in the Flying Immortal Domain should be familiar with them.

"This? My god, this is the Reincarnation Pearl, the Rebirth Diagram, and the Netherworld Tower! Tsk tsk, these are all famous divine weapons from the Reincarnation Holy Land. I never expected that you, Venerable One, would obtain them." Well, these people basically believed what Ye Liuyun said.

After showing it to them, Ye Liuyun immediately put it away.

"Alright, now you know where my confidence comes from. Anyway, don't worry, the resources of our Immortal Realm are more than this. You just need to do as I say," Ye Liuyun said.

As Ye Liuyun issued his orders, all forces within the Immortal Realm immediately sprang into action.

For small and medium-sized forces without Nirvana cultivators to oversee them, Ye Liuyun directly relocated them to the Immortal Realm of Longevity. Large forces, on the other hand, prepared for their own defenses. Ye Liuyun equipped each of their forces with multiple Heaven-Rank magic treasures, and for important positions, he also dispatched powerful figures from the Immortal Realm of Longevity, carrying valuable treasures, to oversee them.

After arranging these matters, Ye Liuyun immediately contacted the Wang and Jin families.

The Jin family naturally offered unconditional support to Ye Liuyun, but Wang Tongtian did not immediately agree to help the Longevity Immortal Realm, because this was no small matter and could easily ignite a major war in the cultivation world of the Flying Immortal Domain.

Therefore, Wang Tongtian invited Ye Liuyun and Xue Qingwu to visit the Wang family.

Ye Liuyun and Xue Qingwu naturally had no objections, so under Xue Qingwu's guidance, she and Ye Liuyun left the Immortal Realm of Immortality and arrived at the place where the Wang family was located.

The place where the Wang family lived was an entire city, and almost the entire city was inhabited by people with the surname Wang. In other words, it was all people from the Wang family.

Xue Qingwu was certainly not visiting this place for the first time, so when she and Ye Liuyun arrived at the Wang family's headquarters and looked at the magnificent city before them, she couldn't help but sigh.

"Ah, it's been so many years since I've been here."

Ye Liuyun surveyed the city. It was quite grand, with a huge "King" character above the main gate.

"Master, this city is a top-grade divine weapon," the spirit of the Time-Space Mirror said.

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun was taken aback. Using a top-grade divine weapon as a base camp, the defensive strength was probably the strongest among all the holy lands.

The royal city is a private city, and outsiders are not allowed to enter at will.

Xue Qingwu immediately notified Wang Tongtian.

A moment later, a figure flashed, and Wang Tongtian appeared out of thin air in front of Ye Liuyun and Xue Qingwu.

After reaching the Divine Realm, Wang Tongtian no longer needed the power of space. With a single thought, he could appear anywhere he wanted to go, as long as the distance was sufficient.

"Haha, little sister, Sister Xue, welcome to the Wang family." Wang Tongtian was still the same as always.

Ye Liuyun chuckled.

"Congratulations, brother, on achieving the Divine Realm." Ye Liuyun congratulated him.

"You little rascal, you've been in seclusion for five hundred years, and you've gained quite a bit. Putting everything else aside, just look at the strength of your soul; I feel like it's already at the Nirvana level," Wang Tongtian said with a smile.

After saying that, Wang Tongtian led Ye Liuyun and Xue Qingwu through the main gate.

Since we're here as guests, we should definitely take a look at the sights inside the royal city.

As the two followed Wang Tongtian inside, they saw rows of houses and buildings. The city looked much like any other city in the mortal world, and there were even many ordinary people living there.

The Wang family has existed for so many years, there must be some members who are unable to cultivate, that's for sure.

"Huh? Why does it feel so much like a secular city?" Ye Liuyun said, looking at the bustling streets and alleys.

“This outer perimeter is where clansmen who cannot cultivate live, while the inner perimeter is where the Wang family cultivators reside. Sister Xue, how do you feel? Is it similar to what it was back then, with no changes?” Wang Tongtian said with a smile.

Xue Qingwu nodded.

"Yes, it's exactly the same as it was thousands of years ago."

Chapter 731 Rumors Spoil the Deal (5000 words)

This place is, after all, a magical treasure space, unlike a city in the mortal world. If it were a city in the mortal world, it would change even in a few years, let alone a thousand years.

Ye Liuyun glanced at it casually, then turned her gaze to Wang Tongtian, who was smiling. She wasn't there to play around, so she naturally didn't have the patience to wait for Wang Tongtian to keep her in suspense.

"Brother, what is the Wang family's attitude? I've fallen out with the five holy lands this time. Will the Wang family help me or not? If you help, I'll be extremely grateful. If you don't, it's fine. To be honest, I don't take these five families seriously at all. At most, it'll just be a little troublesome," Ye Liuyun asked.

Seeing Ye Liuyun's confident demeanor, Wang Tongtian didn't doubt Ye Liuyun's words. However, this matter was too big for him to make a decision on. The main reason was that the current situation was not good. If they fought against the five holy lands, the Wang family would inevitably suffer losses. And don't forget, the Burial God Star was no longer a place where humans could rule alone. They also had to guard against the demon race.

At the same time, the Wang family's higher-ups wanted to know what benefits they would receive if they helped Ye Liuyun destroy the five holy lands; this was what the Wang family's higher-ups were concerned about.

The Wang family's ancestor was a flawless god of the fifth level of heaven. Although he was not the strongest god, the title of "flawless" was enough to intimidate any force.

Because a flawless celestial being wielding an imperial weapon can unleash at least 90% of its power and fully activate the weapon, it can even fight against those at the ninth level of the Divine Path.

Not to mention that the Wang family now has two celestial beings.

“Little sister, this is one of the reasons why I invited you to our Wang family. This is no small matter. Although you are my sworn sister, if you want my Wang family to disregard the stability and unity of the human race and attack the Five Saints Alliance, you may need to make my Wang family’s higher-ups understand what benefits the Wang family would receive if we won. After all, even brothers keep clear accounts. You should understand what I mean, right?” Wang Tongtian said with a slight smile.

Ye Liuyun wasn't an unreasonable person, and that was indeed the case. Let alone getting the Wang family to help, even if Ye Liuyun went to the Nine Heavens Holy Land for assistance, the Nine Heavens Holy Land would probably have to negotiate with Ye Liuyun. That was for sure; there's no such thing as a free lunch.

"Okay, I understand." Ye Liuyun didn't ask any more questions.

Led by Wang Tongtian, they quickly entered the inner city. Inside the inner city, apart from the most senior Heavenly God-level expert, all the other high-ranking members of the Wang family were waiting at the main gate.

"Welcome Lord Ye and Senior Xue to the Wang family as guests." Wang Yinglei and the others greeted them with smiles, making it quite a grand and formal occasion.

Xue Qingwu simply nodded slightly, while Ye Liuyun greeted everyone with a smile.

Some of the younger people around were whispering about Ye Liuyun and Xue Qingwu.
