"Senior Shangguan, you said the Shangguan family is the leader. Does that mean there's more than one ancient family on the north island?" Lin Yi was really surprised this time. It turned out that he still didn't know much about the Heaven-Stage Island. He wouldn't know how much power they had hidden under the surface until they showed it.
"You're very smart. You've guessed the truth with just one sentence. There are three ancient families on the north island, including the Shangguan family. Their overall strength is not as good as the other islands, but their top combat strength is not inferior." Shanghai Tianhua smiled faintly. There was a hint of pride in his eyes.
Lin Yi was secretly shocked. Apart from the Shangguan family, there were two other ancient families on the north island? Their strength was absolutely shocking.
"I can't tell you too much about these things for now. When your strength reaches a certain level, you'll naturally come into contact with them. Now, you just need to have a rough idea." Shanghai Tianhua didn't want to continue, so Lin Yi didn't ask which ancient families were on the north island.
Lin Yi knew about the Okuda family on the middle island, but judging from the north island, there might be other ancient families hiding in the dark.
"Senior Shangguan, if that's the case, there should be ancient families on the west island and the south island, right?" Lin Yi thought for a moment. The Ning family on the west island must be one, but it was hard to say for the south island.
Sure enough, Shanghai Tianhua smiled and nodded. "There are indeed ancient families on the west island, but the south island is a bit chaotic. I don't know what's going on right now. When the Guardian Pact was signed, the south island was one of them. However, a long time ago, the other islands lost contact with the ancient families on the south island."
"Is it because of the spirit beasts?" Lin Yi thought this was very possible. There were many powerful warriors in the spirit beasts, especially the Azure Dragon and Vermilion Bird, who had the bloodline of Divine Beasts. Their strength was even more terrifying. They were invincible among their peers, and it was normal for them to fight against those at a higher level.
"It's possible. No one knows the real situation. Coincidentally, there's something I want to tell you about the south island." As Shangguan Tianhua said that, he suddenly hesitated for a moment.
"Senior Shangguan, please tell me what you need. As long as I can do it, I won't refuse!" Lin Yi knew that Shanghai Tianhua wanted to ask him for help, but he didn't know what to say.
"No problem. What kind of information does Senior Shangguan want me to get?" "Hmm, it's nothing important. I know you'll send Lan 'er to the East Continent, but Vice Dean Zhang Jingmiao has to wait for the Okuda Dam's fleet to complete the round trip to the North island, and then pick up the rest of the other islands in the East Continent. The fleet will depart in in a few months. If you don't, I can you help to get some information on, Shangguan. Guan, I, don. Guan," Shangguan said.
"Guan, I, I, Guan, Shangguan, I, I, I, I, I. But before that, I need to go back to the Middle Island. It won't take long. " Lin Yi agreed without hesitation. Shanghai Tianhua had done him a favor. No matter what the request was, as long as it didn't violate his conscience, he would not refuse.
What was more, even without Shanghai Tianhua's request, Lin Yi was ready to find time to go to the south island. Apart from other things, the South Island Plan of the Center had always been like a fishbone in his throat. He couldn't rest assured until he solved it.
Since Shanghai Laner's trip to the East Continent would take a few months, he had enough time to explore the south island. Moreover, he would sail with Okuda Dam this time, which put Lin Yi in a good mood.
"No problem. If you have something to do, just do it. If you can spare time to go to the south island, you can. If you can't, it's okay." Shanghai Tianhua nodded with a smile. He really wanted to ask Lin Yi for help, instead of ordering Lin Yi to do something.
After a short pause, Shanghai Tianhua continued without waiting for Lin Yi to speak. "Many places in the sea area near the South Continent are controlled by the Spirit Beast Clan, and they collect high taxes. It's becoming more and more difficult for human cultivators to survive in that sea area. This is quite strange."
"Do you want me to investigate this matter?" Lin Yi looked a little serious. In fact, he was the first to know this news. A similar thing had happened when he went to the south island. Now it seemed that the development was out of the control of the Human Clan.
"You can say that, but I don't need you to take risks. There are many experts in the Spirit Beast Clan. Although your strength is good now, it's not enough in the south island. In the past, as long as the human cultivators in the sea area of the South Continent didn't go to the Spirit Beast Forest, they basically minded their own business with the Spirit Beast Clan. This time, the Spirit Beast Clan suddenly invaded the living space of the human cultivators on a large scale. There must be something strange about it." Shanghai Tianhua frowned slightly and didn't know how to explain it to Lin Yi.
"Do you want me to find out why the Spirit Beast Clan suddenly left the Spirit Beast Forest? Or do you suspect that someone cooperated with the Spirit Beast Clan to occupy a large area of the human cultivators' territory so easily? " Lin Yi had kind of understood Shanghai Tianhua's meaning. Thinking of the center that had just been mentioned, Shanghai Tianhua was probably also suspecting that the center was behind the actions of the Spirit Beast Clan.
"Yes! Don't risk your life in the Spirit Beast Forest. All you need to do is to gather information in the areas controlled by the Spirit Beast Clan and find out who exactly is working with the Spirit Beast Clan. I'm sure you already have some guesses in your mind, but I need more concrete evidence to prove it. " Shanghai Tianhua looked quite serious. Lin Yi guessed that this matter might have something to do with the center, so he didn't dare to neglect it.
"I understand! I will definitely handle this matter. If I don't have to go back to the middle island, I even want to set off to the south island now! "If it was really the center who was playing tricks behind the scenes, maybe this was the plan of the south island! Or maybe it was just part of the plan. In any case, Lin Yi had to get to the bottom of it as soon as possible.
"Not now. It's lunchtime soon. Let's go and have a simple meal first and get to know Deputy Dean Zhang Jingmiao. She's an expert. With her support, you can also do whatever you want in the East Continent in the future!" Shanghai Tianhua was in a good mood and joked casually. Of course, he knew that even if Lin Yi wanted to do whatever he wanted, he always relied on his own strength instead of having someone to support him.
