Ye Zhen moved, but it was not his physical body that moved—it was his divine sense!
A wisp of Four-colored Innate Soul Light emerged from Ye Zhen's body and silently entered the cluster of Void-Slaying Light from its far end, injecting his divine sense into it.
He began refining and claiming this cluster of Void-Slaying Light.
This was killing two birds with one stone in Ye Zhen's plan.
He would prevent Yuan Hongying from refining and claiming this cluster of Void-Slaying Light, while obtaining it for himself.
Both objectives had to be fulfilled for the plan to succeed. If even one was missing, neither could be accomplished.
Thus, when Ling Qianbi and Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit Ah Chou worked together to pull Yuan Hongying into the illusion formed by Ah Chou with the Origin Mirage Qi of the Primordial Mirage Dragon, the plan before them was only half complete.
Only once Ye Zhen had completely refined and claimed this cluster of Void-Slaying Light could his plan be considered successful.
Otherwise, the moment Ye Zhen left, or Eunuch Fu inspected the situation here, Ye Zhen would have to flee at once, and Yuan Hongying would immediately awaken.
In the end, Yuan Hongying would still refine and claim this Void-Slaying Light anew.
Unless Ye Zhen took away the Void-Slaying Light.

However, Yuan Hongying had previously left an extremely faint Soul Imprint within this cluster of Void-Slaying Light. It could be said that he had refined less than half a percent of it.
If Ye Zhen wanted to claim this cluster of Void-Slaying Light completely, he would ultimately have to take over
