An astonished look flashed over Shang Ye’s face. He remarked with surprise, “Pay a visit to the Forefather Dragon Clan? Brother, you were in the big spotlight during your trip to the Illusion Heavenly Lake. You suppressed Jiang Kui of the One Horned Mountain Dragon and also made the totem clan elite warriors of the Forefather Dragon Clan feel somewhat annoyed. I am afraid it will not go well if you wanted to visit the Forefather Dragon Clan.”
“Brother, I come with orders and I have no choice. If the totem elite warrior of the Xuan Yuan Mound interferes with conflicts within the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, within such a short time, my Qin Clan cannot resist. I need help to try and put out the fire in case the totem elite warrior steps out and breach the Qin Clan. This is the only opportunity I have. Regardless, I must let all major totem powerhouses learn about this. The totem powerhouses also made a promise to one another, they are forbidden from interfering with secular conflicts.”
Shang Ye nodded. “Of course, for the conflicts between that clans at the eastern sea, the Forefather Dragon Clan also pretend not to notice. They never interfere.”
Raising the corner of his mouth, Shang Ye said again, “Let’s not talk anymore and talk more when we return to the Coiled Dragon mansion. Perhaps, my father-in-law can give you some advice.”
Qin Wushuang nodded. “You should arrange this. Excuse me for disturbing you.”
“Ha ha, what are these strange words? Initially, if you had not gone out heroically to help me, I am afraid I would already be a grieving soul in the Nine Palace Faction.”
Flying was not needed at the Falling Treasure Gulf. Shang Ye’s Coiled Dragon flying boat traveled at a rapid speed and it was much safer, swifter even.
At the Falling Treasure Gulf, the flying boat of the Coiled Dragon Clan was their brand. Not to mention people finding trouble with them along the way, everyone had to stand to the side respectfully when they saw this flying boat.
In the world of beasts, their respect for the powerful were more direct than humans. Power and authority meant everything!
When they arrived at the Coiled Dragon Clan mansion, by using the identity as the Palace Master of the Coiled Dragon Clan, naturally Su Mi could make the best arrangement. She put Qin Wushuang, Mu Rong Xu, and the others at the guest houses.
Unfortunately, Long Dabao was not present at the mansion. Shang Ye and Su Mi could only hang out with Qin Wushuang temporarily.
Fortunately, the trip Long Dabao was taking would not be too long. He would return in ten or fifteen days.
“Brother, at the Coiled Dragon Clan mansion, there is no need for you to worry about anything. Even if that Heavenly Emperor Gate knows you are here, they would not dare to do anything. If they dare to stir trouble at the Coiled Dragon Clan, even if they are people of the Heavenly Emperor Gate, we would kill them one after the other without blinking an eye.”
Qin Wushuang said, “Brother, I will contact my family and colleagues.”
Although the Chief told them it was best not to use the communication jade plate before leaving the Qin Clan, Qin Wushuang couldn’t help but worry about his family. Secondly, with the words from Brother Shang Ye, he felt much more reassured inwardly.
He took out the communication jade plate and Qin Wushuang began to make the contact.
At first, he could not make contact with Qin Lianshan, his father.
Next, he could still not make contact with his Stargaze Palace teacher, Tan Zhongchi.
Qin Wushuang felt panic without a cause. How could this happen?
For this communication jade plate, unless it was sealed, it could still be used even crossing Forbidden Spiritual Zones.
“Brother, at your Falling Treasure Gulf, you did not seal the communication jade plate, right?”
Shang Ye laughed. “Why seal this? No.”
Qin Wushuang’s expression changed. “Then something is wrong… How come I cannot contact my family and colleagues?”
When Mu Rong Xu heard about this, her heart also sank as she walked over with concern. “Brother Qin, you could not contact them?”
Qin Wushuang nodded with a grave expression. “Yes, there is no word from them.”
“After you left the Aspiring Throne Mountain, didn’t you contact them?” Mu Rong Xu questioned.
“At that time, I informed them to leave the human countries and to enter the Endless Eastern Sea to avoid the emperor’s wrath. Calculating the time, they have had sufficient time. After that, there was no more contact made until today, but…”
“The Heavenly Emperor Gate could not have moved this fast right? Besides, they didn’t know you left the Aspiring Throne Mountain? When they learned about it, they had enough time to enter the Endless Eastern Sea.” Mu Rong Xu analyzed the situation and also felt that something seemed to be wrong with this matter.
“Brother, you said your people and fellow colleagues entered the Endless Eastern Sea to avoid the disaster?” when Shang Ye heard about this, he was moved inwardly as he asked.
Qin Wushuang nodded. “Yes.”
Shang Ye asked again, “Then can you verify whether or not they entered the Endless Eastern Sea?”
Qin Wushuang shook his head. “I don’t know about this. Brother, I want to take a look.”
Shang Ye nodded. “Yes, this cannot be delayed. I will accompany you guys. Su’Er, how about you stay here with the little sister?”
Mu Rong Xu shook her head slowly. “Big Brother Shang Ye, I am going with Brother Qin.”
At this crucial point, Mu Rong Xu did not wish Qin Wushuang to face it by himself. Regardless of the situation, she wished that there would be her to shoulder everything.
She hugged Qin Wushuang’s arm gently and Mu Rong Xu’s painting-like eyes dazzled with light.
“Then let’s go together.” Shang Ye was also slightly touched.
Bao Bao and Lone did not dare to goof around at this moment. They knew the degree of seriousness of this matter. They knew that if Boss’s family and colleagues were missing, it would be really unpleasant.
That was the most untouchable reversed scale in which the Boss cared about the most.
Fortunately, the Endless Eastern Sea was close to the border of the human countries and also the territory to the Falling Treasure Gulf. At this territory, the Coiled Dragon Clan possessed definite authoritative power.
The Coiled Dragon flying boat traveled for about ten days and they arrived at the bordering area.
When Shang Ye arrived at this place, he was filled with thousands of thoughts. Initially, he had charged into the Endless Eastern Sea from this area and was saved by Su Mi unintentionally. Then, he had a life changing moment that could only be found in a fantasy.
Now thinking back, he had been endlessly absent-minded.
However, now he did not have the time to recall his suffering from the old days and compare them to his present happiness. As he watched Qin Wushuang’s expression that was getting stern by day, vividly, Shang Ye was somewhat worried.
If they went missing at the Endless Eastern Sea, the problem could be light or severe. No one would dare to promise what kind of situation it would be.
“Xu’Er, let’s take a look over there.” Qin Wushuang and Mu Rong Xu jumped up and arrived at that island where they had regrouped with their people.
“There are fresh foot prints here…” Qin Wushuang said with a complicated tone. After he looked at it carefully, his expression became even more complicated.
“It’s them, they had already arrived at this Endless Eastern Sea. The good news is they didn’t get caught by the Heavenly Emperor Gate, the bad news is that there is no news and no traces of them anywhere.”
A trace of uneasiness swept across Qin Wushuang’s heart. If they have already entered the Endless Eastern Sea, unless they have encountered a difficult situation, it would be impossible for them to not be able to activate that communication jade plate.
Shang Ye and Su Mi also walked onto the island and asked with a concerned voice, “Brother, how did it go.”
Qin Wushuang explained the situation and Shang Ye also revealed a somewhat grave expression. “This way, most likely something happened to them at the Endless Eastern Sea.”
Qin Wushuang said, “An accident at the Endless Eastern Sea, this…”
Shang Ye waved his hand. “Brother, don’t worry, this is the Falling Treasure Gulf. If they did not get swallowed by a tsunami or attacked by monsters, I will ask Su’Er to send her spiritual perception to all the cave dwellings of the Falling Treasure Gulf immediately. I will ask all the leaders of the territories to collaborate in the investigation.”
Without a question, the Falling Treasure Gulf were qualified to do this.
Shang Ye and Su Mi exchanged a glance and Su Mi returned to the Coiled Dragon flying boat. She activated the Coiled Dragon commanding plate and immediately delivered the news.
Instantly, all the cave dwellings and their leaders of this Falling Treasure Gulf received the Coiled Dragon order.
“Brother, now we can only wait. If there is any news, they will surely report it,” Shang Ye comforted Qin Wushuang.
Qin Wushuang’s frame of mind became slightly moderate. Yet in the end, he could not feel at peace. With the Endless Eastern Sea being so dangerous, it’s likely that something bad could happen.
For the martial artists of the human countries, currently the strongest ones were the Head Palace Master and the Second Palace Master. In addition to his sister-in-law, Da Xi Ming, he also had the strength close to the Profound Void Martial Stage.
For other people, his father Qin Lianshan and the other three major Palace Masters had only entered the Refined Void Martial Stage.
It could be said that such a level of strength makes them invincible at the human countries.
Even at an ordinary state city in the Xuan Yuan Mound, they would be ensured with high positions. However, compared to those Prefecture lords, the elite warriors of the third and second powerhouses, the disparity was apparent.
Therefore, with such strength, even at the border area of the Endless Eastern Sea, one would not dare to speak to be one hundred percent safe.
Three days had passed and there was still no information and nothing had been reported.
Qin Wushuang’s mood was filled with haze.
Shang Ye was rather proactive as he asked Su Mi, “Su’Er, list all the powerful cave dwellings and leaders around this area, let me see who they are.”
Su Mi said, “Alright, if any of these bastards were the ones behind it, I will peel off their skin! They dare to make a move against my young brother in-law’s family, they are defying the sky!”
Soon, a list of names were listed out. Within the vast water territory surrounding this place, there were three to four powerhouses that could threaten Qin Wushuang’s family. In terms of considering a longitudinal matter, Su Mi also included a few other powerhouses that could be potential threats.
These were Soul Turtle Island, Hundred War Island, Hissing Moon Island, Quicksand Mountain Ridge, Great Thorn Cave Dwelling, and the Scarlet Bright Cave Dwelling.
In total, there were these six powerhouses. Su Mi listed the name of these six powerhouses and said, “I will send the Coiled Dragon order again and ask all of their leaders to gather here to answer my questions.”
“Sister-in-law, this is too much trouble for you,” Qin Wushuang said apologetically.
“Brother Wushuang, what are you talking about? If it’s truly related to these guys, you can do whatever you want.” Su Mi was rather straightforward.
“I only hope that everyone was alright. It’s rather less important of punishing them. They are the powerhouses of the Endless Eastern Sea, it’s reasonable for them to be hostile towards foreign martial artists.” Qin Wushuang was not an unreasonable person. Of course, he only said these words to make Su Mi feel better in terms of reputation.
“The leader of the Hissing Moon Island and the Scarlet Bright Cave Dwelling are not present?” Su Mi swore. “Where did they go? However, the leaders of the other four powerhouses are already here.”
…
At some remote and hidden place of the Hissing Moon Island, a less powerful ringleader sat with one leg over the other leisurely. As he enjoyed the beautiful lady of the whale clan, he only felt that life was incredibly beautiful.
“Why has Island Master still not returned? This time, I prepared a big present for him, ha ha ha. I hope Island Master will give me an assistant Island Master this time,” the little leader thought with happiness.
A few subordinates on the side nodded their heads as they bowed down..
