The people of the Green Rain Race had never dreamed that they would have this kind of opportunity.
Could it be that there were still people who would repay evil with good?
When they heard Ye Zichen's words, the Green Rain clansmen grew suspicious.
It seemed that the other party had made a request of him, but this request was based on him keeping his promise. If the Green Rain Clansmen agreed verbally, then once they returned to their clans, they'd ignore his request. Ye Zichen wouldn't be able to do anything to them.
If there really was an invasion from other races in the universe, they probably wouldn't have the energy to care about the Green Rain race's betrayal!
Perhaps when the time comes, she might even have to beg him!
He didn't think that everything would be as perfect as he imagined. Perhaps Ye Zichen wanted to use some sort of method …
Soul Gem!
Suddenly, the hearts of the Green Rain Tribesmen trembled.
Now that the gem was in Ye Zichen's hands, if he wanted someone to truly be unable to betray him, he naturally had to control their soul.
He wanted to …
"You want to leave an imprint on my soul? Don't even think about it!" The Green Rain Clansman shouted furiously.
"Hey, do you see the situation clearly?"
Yang Jian raised his three-pointed, double-edged sword. The silver sword light drew an arc, and the tip of the sword brushed past the tip of the Green Rain clansman's nose, stopping between his eyebrows.
As long as Yang Jian willed it, he could instantly pierce through the forehead of a Green Rain clansman and shatter his soul sea of consciousness, turning him into an idiot.
"Do you have the right to choose?"
The cold blade was pressed against his forehead. The heart of the Green Rain Clan member fiercely contracted, and his stiff body didn't move at all.
He licked his lips and forcefully suppressed the fear in his heart.
"Then I would rather die!"
The Green Rain Clansmen, who had once used soul gems to control others, knew better than anyone else the result of being branded.
The power of life and death was completely in the hands of the other party. Even if he lived, he would be like a walking corpse, unable to have his own consciousness. Whatever the other wanted him to do, he would do it!
Perhaps it really was the time for the universe to be invaded by alien races.
Ye Zichen wanted to use his soul imprint to command the Green Rain clansmen to serve as cannon fodder.
If he really did it …
He might as well die now!
The members of the Green Rain Race glared at Yang Jian, refusing to budge an inch. Yang Jian squinted his eyes and lightly pushed his blade forward.
"Don't …"
A pair of hands abruptly appeared on his shoulders. This abrupt slap caused Yang Jian's hand, which was holding the weapon, to shake violently.
Puchi.
Blood splattered through the air. Yang Jian glared at Ye Zichen, then at the blade that had sunk into the Green Rain clansman's forehead.
"…"
The eyes of the Green Rain clansmen were wide open. Even in the face of death, they still maintained an expression as if they were facing death calmly.
"Ye 'zi, this … this isn't my fault, right?"
"So you want to say that it's my fault?" Ye Zichen glared at him.
"If you didn't pat me, I wouldn't have been scared."
Yang Jian helplessly spread his hands. Immediately, the two of them looked at each other and saw a speechless expression in each other's eyes.
"Forget it, just die."
Ye Zichen didn't dwell on the matter. He glanced at the lifeless Green Rain clansman, then couldn't help but walk up to him and gently stroke his eyes.
"Your life is really bad. I really want to let you go!"
Ye Zichen shrugged, then turned to the powerhouse.
"Take care of it and send the corpse back to the Green Rain Race. Also, send some more resources to the Green Rain Race. Raise a new leader from among the clansmen and have them serve Era. "
"No problem. Leave it to me," said Gu Xuande.
"You …."
"It was all thanks to you that Qingli was able to escape. Leave it to me. Just consider it my way of repaying my debt of gratitude. "
"Alright!" Ye Zichen nodded. "Then I'll leave it to you. But don't think this is enough to repay you. Qingli is priceless to you, isn't she?"
Gu Xuande, who was just about to leave, couldn't help but stiffen. When he recalled Ye Zichen's words, he couldn't help but curse inwardly.
"That scoundrel!"
No one would've guessed that the Green Rain clansmen, who'd once held soul gems and posed a great threat to both the God Race and Era, would meet such a fate.
Dying was one thing, but he'd died in such a blunder. Without the threat of the Green Rain clansmen, the God Race experts had already begun exploring the area around the entrance to the secret realm. However, due to the appearance of the Green Rain clansmen, their exploration was limited to within a thousand meters of the main force.
They didn't dare advance rashly.
Yang Jian and the Great Sage naturally didn't just stand around. They called out to Ye Zichen, then left to explore the surroundings. Now, only Elder Lin, the War Goddess, and Ye Zichen remained at the entrance.
"Elder Lin, this is a treasure, right?"
Ye Zichen placed the soul gem in Elder Lin's hands. A purple light swirled around it.
"It was just a treasure before!"
Elder Lin nodded with certainty. After fiddling with it a few times, he handed it back to Ye Zichen.
"Treasures like this can only be found by chance. Since it's in your hands now, you have to make good use of it!"
"Of course. I've already thought of how to use it!"
As he spoke, Ye Zichen explained his plan to Elder Lin and the War Goddess. Long after Ye Zichen finished speaking, both Elder Lin and the War Goddess furrowed their brows.
"If we do that, then the soul gem's effects …."
"I know it'll be greatly reduced, but isn't our goal here to prevent others from entering the Milky Way?" Ye Zichen smiled. "We'll use the soul gem as the eye of the formation and set up a bewildering formation …."
"We can try," Elder Lin nodded.
Although the War Goddess still couldn't agree with Elder Lin, she could only nod and shrug.
"Then let's try it."
With that, she squinted her eyes and looked Ye Zichen up and down. Ye Zichen, who had been paying attention to the soul gem, felt his hair stand on end.
"How did you break free from the soul gem's imprint?" The War Goddess raised her eyebrows. "When you transmitted your voice to me and Elder Lin, I felt that you were very confident. However, even if the Green Rain Clan hadn't used even a tenth of its power, it shouldn't have been so easy.
You should have been able to break free in a short amount of time, right? "
"That …. It's all thanks to him," Ye Zichen laughed.
Ye Zichen laughed. Suddenly, an elegant young master appeared in front of him. This Young Master looked exceptionally handsome, and the smile on the corner of his mouth gave people a feeling of being bathed in the spring breeze. Both Elder Lin and the War Goddess were attracted by him. Just as Ye Zichen was about to introduce him to them, the young master walked in front of the War Goddess. His gem-like eyes revealed a hint of struggle, as well as a hint of doubt.
Confusion.
