In a few hours, the ship covered thousands of miles and docked at a large island where more people were waiting for them.
Commander Frugal appeared, and all the soldiers perford a salute except Riana and Abner. He nodded before commanding, "Where is Mr. White? Go fetch him out."
A human soldier quickly acknowledged his command and hurried toward White's room.
However, the soldier quickly appeared again, but his face was filled with panic as he quickly shouted, "H-he's gone!"
Everyone's expression changed, and Frugal was flabbergasted for a mont before he raged, "What do you an gone?"
"He's not in his room. It's completely empty!" The soldier didn't dare to face Frugal as he trembled and replied.
"How is that possible?! Did soone forget to activate the formation?" Frugal's expression was dark as he swept through all the soldiers with an icy glare.
"The formation was active all the ti. If soone tried to move around, I should've known." It was Riana who spoke. She was also shocked, but a hint of curiosity was present in his eyes as she rembered that mysterious, handso man who seed too calm in front of her as if she was just a normal girl in his eyes.
"Could it be he was really from the other side and tricked us? But it shouldn't be possible! How did he get that information on us?" Frugal muttered as a chill ran down his spine since the implications of this matter were extrely threatening to Sky Heart Plains.
Because they were also trying to get past the four world boundaries for thousands of years but to no avail. Yet, now soone suspicious to be from the other side has appeared, and he knows about them and even escapes their grade-8 formation. Didn't this an the other side knew about their existence while they didn't know anything? This was a huge threat as they were now under threat of invasion.
This matter suddenly beca so huge that it would shake the entire Sky Heart Plains' powers, and they had to find this person and get information out of him quickly, or no one would be able to sleep in peace.
"Quickly scatter and start searching. I want any anomaly report to . I'm going to request for reinforcent. We can't let him get away!" Frugal gravely ordered as he was about to leave when Abner moved forward.
He said gloomily, "I'm going back to the capital to report this blunder to his imperial crown prince. Alert the Formation Guild, and close off all the teleportation altars. No one to leave without confirming their identity!"
No one found his interference and issuing a command, despite Frugal's presence, offensive. Everyone knew who he was, and Frugal couldn't fully command him. Furthermore, this matter was very important.
Frugal nodded, "Give my regards to his imperial highness and ask for forgiveness. It was my fault. I hope it won't affect the Kingdom."
He was taking all the responsibility for White's escape. This matter has blown out of his reach, and this might also affect the Golden Lion Kingdom as a whole since he escaped in their watch. Frugal was very loyal, so he was willing to accept all the bla on himself.
As long as they had a marriage alliance with the imperial family, they wouldn't make things too difficult for the Golden Lion Kingdom.
Abner didn't refute as he nodded, "I know it's not your fault. We were all tricked. I'll make sure Golden Lion Kingdom won't take all the bla. Now, ti is very pressing. The more we wait, the more we are under the threat of invasion. Until we conform to that person's background, we should use all of our power to search the Great Sea."
Frugal was very moved since Abner was always overbearing and didn't give anyone face, but now he was speaking out for them, so he was very grateful. Both of them quickly left for the island.
Riana's eyes shimred with uncertainty as she looked at all the soldiers preparing for a mass search and glanced at Frugal and Abner heading into the city built on this island.
'Could it be he ran away because of my warning? Who are you?' She thought before she prepared for a search.
The Sky Heart Plains were far more advanced when it ca to alchemy or runes from the Golden Sky World. Their biggest advantage was their space runes. They had developed space teleportation channels all over the sky heart plains, and as long as soone paid a handso fee, they could go anywhere and cover huge distances within a few minutes.
That's why they were able to react quickly to any kind of danger, and this also made them scared. Because if they destroy these teleportation altars, no one will be able to infiltrate the mainland quickly, and they will be well-prepared by the ti danger arrives.
These kinds of island cities with teleportation altars were set all over the sea or to cover such a distance by ship. It would take years to reach the Sky Heart Plains. That's why they were quite confident in finding White before he could reach the mainland. At least they have ti to gather a huge force to search for him.
As Ace entered the small city, he found it was filled with powerful cultivators, no commoner or unidentified people were allowed in here.
Frugal quickly bid farewell as he headed toward the headquarters in the city while Ace directly headed to the center of the city, reaching a small building guarded by the Qi manifestation realm.
This place was known as the Space Highway Building, controlled by Formation Guild, which was a terrifying existence that controlled almost all the runic inheritance in the Sky Heart Plains.
Seeing Abner's armor, those guards won't stop him from entering, and a young lady receives Ace from the elf race.
"Which teleportation altar do you want to use?" She asked smilingly without any attitude, but she wasn't respected as well. Anyone in this place belonged to Formation Guild, and they won't interfere with the power struggle of Sky Heart Plains.
"I want to use a Middle-Level Teleportation Altar." Ace directly replied with extre familiarity.
There were three types of teleportation altars: Low, Middle, and High levels. The low-level teleportation altar could teleport soone to tens of thousands of miles. At the sa ti, the middle level could cover distances of hundreds of thousands of miles.
But the high level one could teleport soone to millions of miles away. However, these kinds of teleportation altars were located in the capital cities of Sky Heart Plains since they were extrely hard to build. So, this place only had a middle-level one.
Furthermore, the teleportation fee also beca greater the higher the platform you use. The Formation Guild's 50% inco cos from these Space Highway Buildings.
The elf replied, "It would be 10,000 Low Grade-7 Qi Stones, and 1,000 Low Grade-7 Soul Crystals. You also have to register through your identification tile."
Ace didn't even blink before paying and through a triangular violet tile with a formation symbol on it.
The elf quickly scanned the tile with a formation device before handing him back, and then she led him to the inner part of the building where a 50-ter large circular platform was located, and an elder was sitting cross-legged on a prying mat on the side.
He was also an elf, and sensing Ace and the lady elf entering, he opened his eyes and impassively asked Abner, "Your destination?"
Ace coolly replied, "As closer to the Sky Heart Plains."
"Stand in the middle." The elder replied, and Ace complied.
When he was in position, the Elder's expression beca solemn, and he ford a few hand seals before the entire formation lit up in runes. With a blink, Ace's figure vanished, and he reappeared in another identical place.
But the man in charge here was a demon as he beckoned him to leave. However, Ace rely paid another fee for another teleportation.
Just like that, he used the teleportation altars eighteen tis before finally reaching the Sky Heart Plains' Golden Lion Kingdom's Space Highway Building, which was far grander than the previous one.
However, he didn't go to the empire's capital yet and left since he needed to release his house mbers and issue so missions to help them with their house mission.
No one knows the Sky Heart Plains were about to beco very lively!
