Inside the Sky-reaching Trading Company on Chaotic Sky Island, Master Yany, who had just received two pieces of news, furrowed his brows into the shape of the character "川". His face was so gloomy that it seed like water could drip from it.
"Useless, all of you are useless!"
"The people we’ve already captured disappeared into thin air! Eight people vanished without a trace, and you don’t have any information at all. What are you all doing?"
"Investigate. Bring a Realm King Level Tributor to lead the team and investigate thoroughly. If no results are found, don’t bother coming back!" The enraged Manager Yany scolded the steward who had previously led the capture of Big Ears, showering him with a verbal lashing.
While the scolding continued, Shopkeeper Ma was sowhat restless.
He knew all too well why his brother-in-law, the Manager Yany, was so furious.
Mainly, it was because his own matters had been ssed up, and that Sky-reaching Trading Company’s steward had beco collateral damage.
After ushering away the miscellaneous people, Yany Chi set up several barriers to prevent Divine Soul Power eavesdropping, then suppressed his anger and asked Shopkeeper Ma, "What exactly happened?"
"A group of Martial Artists from the Dark Palace Realm, tracking soone with only First Stage of Divine Communication Realm’s cultivation, and they lost him! Even I’m embarrassed for them!" Yany Chi scolded.
"Brother-in-law..."
Shopkeeper Ma wore a bitter smile. His subordinates were all trusted aides and would definitely not deceive him. Yet, the situation was just that weird. "Brother-in-law, honestly, that guy’s speed was too strange. His flying speed was much faster than the Martial Artists of the Dark Palace Realm. In the blink of an eye, he was out of sight."
After pacing in the Silent Chamber for a while, Yany Chi finally said, "No, we can’t just give up like this. Even if there’s only a glimr of hope, we must try!"
"Have your people continue to split into several teams and pursue in the direction that kid disappeared. Rember, the team’s personnel must be reasonably matched. Any team that discovers that kid must have the strength to capture him in one strike!" Yany Chi instructed.
"Furthermore, I suspect that if that kid is indeed scouting for the Little World behind him, he will probably go to other Ruins Markets after leaving Chaotic Sky Island. I will have people closely monitor other Ruins Markets’ situations, and notify you imdiately if there is any discovery!
This ti, if there’s truly an opportunity, you can’t make any more errors!" Yany Chi sternly said.
"Don’t worry, brother-in-law!" Shopkeeper Ma nodded firmly.
As Shopkeeper Ma left, it was the mont when Ye Zhen quietly infiltrated Chaotic Sky Island with Big Ears.
Along the way, Ye Zhen had witnessed the terrifying aspect of Big Ears’ Innate Divine Ability, which could almost evade all dangers ahead, with a range of thousands of miles. It was incredibly defying.
This was why Ye Zhen kept Big Ears by his side.
Relying on Big Ears’ Innate Divine Ability, Ye Zhen quickly learned the position of Manager Yany, right inside the Sky-reaching Trading Company.
After instructing Big Ears, Ye Zhen utilized the Innate Five Elents Divine Escape to silently sneak towards the Sky-reaching Trading Company. Fifteen minutes later, Ye Zhen arrived below Yany Chi’s room.
He spread his Divine Sense, carefully observing the security situation inside the Sky-reaching Trading Company, which turned out to be quite tricky for Ye Zhen.
Perhaps due to the considerable scale of the Sky-reaching Trading Company, and concerning the security of massive wealth, not only were there nurous guards, but their quality was also very high.
Within the entire Sky-reaching Trading Company, Ye Zhen discovered ten terrifying presences exuding Realm King Realm aura, and Martial Artists of the Dark Palace Realm numbering over a hundred.
Yany Chi’s cultivation in the Sky-reaching Trading Company was not considered very high, with only early-stage Sixth Stage of Dark Palace Realm, but Ye Zhen was not too confident about achieving an instant kill.
More importantly, the defensive power here was too strong. Such a powerful business valued security imnsely, and even though Ye Zhen could use the Innate Five Elents Divine Escape to enter the Sky-reaching Trading Company, it was still quite challenging.
Not to ntion, if Ye Zhen erged from underground to assassinate Yany Chi and then tried to re-enter the ground to leave the Sky-reaching Trading Company, it would take Ye Zhen at least one breath’s ti to do so.
However, in one breath’s ti, those strong Realm King Realm individuals would rush over and turn Ye Zhen into minced at.
After observing the underground of the Sky-reaching Trading Company for an hour, Ye Zhen reluctantly retreated.
Inside the Sky-reaching Trading Company, there was no chance of success unless Ye Zhen wished to die.
At this point, Ye Zhen deeply missed the Little Demon. If the Little Demon was here, with Ye Zhen’s large supply of Jade Finger Scorpion Poison, silently eliminating Yany Chi wouldn’t be a problem.
Although the Little Demon wasn’t here, Ye Zhen could also use the Yimu Spiritual Communication Technique. Ye Zhen’s Yimu Spiritual Communication Technique was suitable for waking Tree Demons, or to manipulate ordinary plants to trap or harm enemies, but for executing assassinations or stealth attacks that required special Spirit Plants, Ye Zhen’s Yimu Spiritual Communication Technique was ineffective.
"Keep a good watch on that Yany Chi, and notify imdiately if there’s an opportunity!" Ye Zhen instructed after reuniting with Big Ears.
For now, there were three people known to be aware of this matter: Big Ears, Yany Chi, and Shopkeeper Ma. Big Ears was already under Ye Zhen’s control, and Ye Zhen had saved Big Ears’ life, so Big Ears likely wouldn’t do anything extre.
But the cunning and shrewd Yany Chi and Shopkeeper Ma were hard to predict.
More importantly, Ye Zhen currently didn’t know whether Yany Chi and Shopkeeper Ma had inford anyone else about this matter.
Although the chance of that was very slim, Ye Zhen couldn’t take that risk.
The safest course of action would be for Ye Zhen to eliminate these two while conducting a Soul Search to ensure they hadn’t leaked the information, assuring Ye Zhen of its confidentiality.
Originally, Ye Zhen could go and eliminate Yany Chi’s brother-in-law, Shopkeeper Ma, first, but considering Yany Chi’s cunning and shrewd nature, Ye Zhen felt it better not to alert the target prematurely.
"Master, the Sky-reaching Trading Company is closed for business, and Manager Yany has left the premises!" Big Ears suddenly announced.
"Left the Sky-reaching Trading Company? Where is he going?" Ye Zhen hurriedly asked.
As for assassinating Yany Chi on the way, it was sothing Ye Zhen wouldn’t do unless absolutely necessary, given that the tributes on Chaotic Sky Island were no joke.
"When he left, he ntioned going to stay overnight at Xiang’er’s place!"
"Who is Xiang’er, and where is Xiang’er located?" Ye Zhen inquired.
"This..." Big Ears Nie Ting’s eyes flickered, "Master, don’t worry, I will listen closely. Perhaps there will be clues!"
Saying this, Big Ears Nie Ting’s ears began to tremble at a rapid frequency. Ye Zhen even noticed the inside of Nie Ting’s ears vibrating rapidly.
"Master, I’ve heard that there are over 130 places called Xiang’er on Chaotic Sky Island... Over 90 have been ruled out... Only three remain..."
Suddenly, Nie Ting’s expression brightened, "Central Sea Bell Lane... the fifth house, a maid is scolding the cook, saying that Master Yany is coming..."
At that mont, Nie Ting’s ears opened wide, and his whole body was drenched in sweat, as if he had been fished out of water.
"Master, no doubt about it, it’s that house. At Yany Chi’s current speed, you have no more than ninety breaths of ti..."
"Well done, here’s your reward!"
Throwing a Spirit Void Fruit, Ye Zhen’s figure vanished into thin air.
Looking at the Spirit Void Fruit in his hand, Nie Ting nonchalantly swallowed it, and a few breaths later, Nie Ting’s eyes were wide open!
