Above the skies of the Outer Domain Dead Sea, over a hundred Establishnt Kings had ford a square formation, advancing swiftly.
At the front and back of the formation, a Martial Artist stood out, each holding a Ferocious Beast Bone, with Divine Light shooting from their eyes.
Once a Demon Beast was spotted approaching, they would imdiately activate the Ferocious Beast Bone in their hands, unleashing an indescribable nacing aura, causing any pursuing or obstructing Demon Beast to imdiately scatter and flee.
Occasionally encountering swarms of Demon Beasts rushing in like a deluge, the group would swiftly descend toward the sea surface to avoid the threat.
This is the peril of the Outer Domain Dead Sea, where even a Dao Entrance Realm expert cannot recklessly charge through. The dangers here that can kill a Dao Entrance Realm expert are too nurous.
And this group was precisely the Stars Tower elders who had planned to capture Ye Zhen alive and ambush him halfway.
"Old Three, of the people you have stationed along the way, have any of them spotted any trace of Ye Zhen recently?" asked the Second Tower Chief Huang Tan during the flight.
"Apart from the first day after departure, those stationed along the route have found nothing!" Ou Tu shook his head.
"Nothing?"
The Fifth Tower Chief Yan Wudi’s expression shifted, "Could we be chasing after nothing?"
"Little Five, after all these years, you’re still as impatient!" The Ancestor of the Ning Family, with a head full of silver hair, said with a chuckle, "How vast is the Outer Domain Dead Sea! Even the Dragon Alliance, which has dominated the Outer Domain Dead Sea for so many years, cannot fully control it. How much less could our mainly land-focused Stars Tower manage it?"
"It’s incredibly difficult to track a person’s whereabouts in the Outer Domain Dead Sea! But I trust your third brother won’t let you go empty-handed!"
"Fourth Uncle is right. If we can’t ambush him midway, we’ll head straight for the agreed eting place on Wilderness Island. We have Ye Zhen’s parents in our hands; he’s bound to co!
Otherwise, dealing with Ye Zhen alone would only require the three of us. The reason we brought the Ancestor and so many others is to prevent Ye Zhen from calling for reinforcent!" Ou Tu said.
Hearing this, the Ning Family Ancestor chuckled softly, "See, I was right..."
Suddenly, a purple talismanic ssage descended from the sky, landing in the hands of the Ning Family Ancestor, interrupting his words.
With just a glance, the figure of Ning Shiyi, the Ning Family Ancestor, halted abruptly, and his face turned ghastly pale. His hand gripping the ssage trembled violently, "This... this... how is it possible?"
"Fourth Uncle, what happened?" Seeing Ning Shiyi’s unusual reaction, the Second Tower Chief Huang Tan, the Third Tower Chief Ou Tu, and the Fifth Tower Chief Yan Wudi simultaneously stopped and inquired with concern.
Gazing at the content of the talisman ssage, Ning Shiyi gritted his steel teeth and, after sending out several talisman ssages, his gaze towards the Fifth Tower Chief Yan Wudi suddenly turned sowhat unfriendly.
This unfriendly feeling was also sensed by Huang Tan and Ou Tu, and their expressions beca extraordinarily strange, with a vague sense of foreboding rising in their hearts.
As the three were puzzled, in the distant sky, purple streaks suddenly appeared, resembling a sudden purple teor shower.
Upon closer inspection, this purple teor shower was composed of fast-flying purple talisman ssages crossing through the air.
The group had only departed from Star Island for less than a day, and given the number of people, they had only flown over two hundred thousand miles and were still within the transmission range of the ssages. Had they gone over five hundred thousand miles, the chaotic Star Island wouldn’t be able to reach them until they rested.
Seeing the purple talisman ssages flying through the air, Ou Tu, Huang Tan, and Yan Wudi’s expressions all tensed up, and the atmosphere suddenly beca extrely solemn.
Judging by the montum of the talisman ssages, everyone knew—sothing major had happened!
The purple talisman ssages were received by each, and within a few breaths, Huang Tan, Ou Tu, Yan Wudi, and Ning Shiyi each received no less than fifty urgent ssages.
These ssages ca from family mbers, trusted insiders within the Stars Tower, and no matter who they were from, they all talked about one thing—several Tower Chiefs had died violently, throwing Star Island into chaos!
This was not the most shocking of all. When they saw the final few talisman ssages, their bodies involuntarily shook a few tis; Ning Shiyi almost fell from the sky.
Each one’s complexion turned deathly white in an instant!
All this stemd from the sa news—five Young Tower Chiefs had simultaneously gone missing!
Huang Tan, Ou Tu, Yan Wudi, and Ning Shiyi were all accustod to life-and-death situations, possessing incredibly strong nerves. Even suddenly receiving a ssage that the Tower Chief Lord Gaishan, the Fourth Tower Chief Ning Chun, or the Yan Family Ancestor Yan Tu had fallen
was shocking, but with their resilient nerves, they could handle it.
Only the simultaneous disappearance of the five Young Tower Chiefs was unbearable for them.
Because the five Young Tower Chiefs were the Achilles’ heel of their Stars Tower!
If the Tower Chief or the Fourth Tower Chief fell, it didn’t matter, because the Stars Tower had long prepared, and the Young Tower Chiefs were almost grood to take over at any ti.
But now with the simultaneous disappearance of the five Young Tower Chiefs, it’s as if the lifeline of the Stars Tower has been cut off.
After reading the batch of talisman ssages, the Fifth Tower Chief Yan Wudi tossed the pile of ssages in his palm, his voice trembling, "Is this real?"
"Is it even possible?"
"Who in this world could silently take down three Dao Realm experts on our Star Island?"
Upon hearing this, Ou Tu revealed a smile more miserable than crying, "But the contents of the ssages cannot be wrong, and we’ve received hundreds of them. Who could possibly force all the high levels, butlers of Star Island, and even our won to send such ssages..."
By the end, Ou Tu’s voice grew softer and softer.
In truth, everyone realized it wasn’t that Yan Wudi doubted the authenticity but that he couldn’t believe everything the ssages conveyed.
The ancestor of the Yan Family was assassinated, and the young Tower Chief of the Yan Family disappeared.
It was still on Star Island, and without any signs of fighting; it’s simply astonishing!
"Return to the island!"
The ancestor of the Ning Family spat out these two words from between his teeth and then turned around without saying a word.
In an instant, his figure transford into a flash of thunderous radiance, shooting towards the distance at a speed more than twice as fast as when he arrived.
At the sa mont, the Second Tower Chief Huang Tan and Fifth Tower Chief Yan Wudi also flickered their figures, pursuing Ning Shiyi with all their might.
At this point, each of them wished they had wings to return to Star Island as fast as possible.
The Third Tower Chief Ou Tu also rushed out but swiftly returned in front of those hundred Establishnt Kings, opening a Spirit Beast Bag without a word, the intention clear.
These Establishnt Kings couldn’t match their speed, but they must be brought along during such a major change.
Many Establishnt Kings glanced at each other, reluctantly filing into the Spirit Beast Bag.
The Spirit Beast Bag, though capable of holding people, is extrely suffocating, requiring conversion to Inner Breathing to exist long-term, very uncomfortable.
But at this mont, they have no choice but to go inside.
Stuffing nurous Establishnt Kings into a bag, Ou Tu flickered his figure and pursued the three figures ahead, anwhile, continuously sending out Talisman Lights to remotely command the chaotic Star Island.
.....
On Star Island, the Stars Tower Grand Elder Gai Zhishi, who fainted skyward, was revived amidst everyone’s efforts of pushing palace and bleeding, and opened his eyes.
The eyes opened slightly hollow, filled with indescribable sadness, "Could this be the heavens forsaking my Stars Tower......"
"Get up, old man! This heaven.... cannot collapse!" A white-haired Martial Artist landed beside Gai Zhishi with a swoosh.
"Greetings, Ancestor!"
"Salutations, Ancestor!"
Seeing this elder, whether Gai Zhishi or Chief Inspector Huang Mian or other Establishnt Kings, they all stepped forward and respectfully saluted.
The visitor was none other than the ancestor of the Stars Tower Gai Family, who governed the Stars Tower for over four hundred years, the forr Tower Chief Gai Jun!
"Put your minds back in your bellies; with old man Gai Jun here, this heaven won’t fall, this Star Island won’t be in chaos!" This sentence was sent by Gai Jun using a mix of Divine Soul Power and Spiritual Power to every corner of Star Island.
Especially the core of Star Island, nearly every Martial Artist heard this extrely domineering statent.
The next mont, the Martial Artists on Star Island, who were extrely worried prior, imdiately responded loudly, as if the entire Star Island suddenly had a backbone!
"Transmit my command, from now on, no one is allowed to move freely.
From this mont, Star Island only allows entry, no exits!"
"Led and commanded by Chief Inspector Huang Mian, investigate any abnormal situations on the island, any movents by all personnel including maids and slaves, and check if other personnel have disappeared,
every person in the five mansions on the island, regardless of status or height, must undergo disguise inspection, any refusal to cooperate or resistance will be killed without rcy!
anwhile, check the island’s properties, buildings, and all conditions.
Report imdiately upon any anomaly!" Gai Jun shouted.
"Yes, we comply!" After responding loudly, Huang Mian imdiately led his team away!
"Gai Zhishi, imdiately divide the Establishnt Kings on the island into three groups, one group to strengthen patrols within the island to ensure safety,
choose another group of reliable people, fully deploy them outside the vigilance grand formation, I suspect the perpetrator hasn’t left, and once there’s any anomaly in the vigilance grand formation, attack imdiately, do not relax before the Tower Chiefs return!"
"Additionally, select over a hundred Establishnt Kings skilled in speed, form teams of three, radiate searches centered on Star Island, once suspicious individuals are found, capture if possible, if not, carefully track and report via Dao Talisman Communication!"
"Yes!" After responding loudly, Gai Zhishi imdiately took his team and left!
"Ning Qi, gather two thousand Vein Forging Realm Martial Artists, teams of twenty, for old man to conduct a dragnet search of the entire Star Island, mountain forests, lakes, any possible hiding places, leave nothing unchecked!
Check all personnel outside the core area of Star Island, anyone must be inspected for disguise, dare refuse or resist, kill without rcy!"
"Yes!" Ning Qi, the Stars Tower’s Ten Elders, responded loudly.
A dozen breaths later, the previously chaotic Star Island imdiately operated like a precision machine, no longer in previous chaos.
However, scattered cries still echoed from various corners of the mansions.
Fifteen minutes later, shadows flickered across the entire Star Island, filled with Killing Qi!
anwhile, Ye Zhen hiding underground, was utterly amazed.
