After Lu Ping captured He Xiyun alive, the sounds of fighting could be heard on the surface of the sea. Zhenling's cultivators were fighting with the scattered Cang Hai Sect cultivators.
Unfortunately, He Xiyun was alert and knew that there might be an ambush. Otherwise, the operation would have been much smoother.
After a while, Zhong Jian and Ma Yu arrived together. Lu Ping smiled and said to Ma Yu, "I thought it would be enough if Senior Brother Zhong Jian led the team this time. My nephew has just reached the age of 100. He can't leave sister-in-law's side."
After Ma Yu became a mother, she had a mature charm. She smiled and said, "Since you, Water Sword Immortal, have spoken, all the third generation disciples of Zhenling will give you face!"
Lu Ping chuckled and listened to Zhong Jian's account of the encirclement. He said, "Because He Xiyun was prepared in advance, half of them managed to escape. The remaining half only managed to capture a dozen or so of them. The rest were all killed in the battle!"
Lu Ping nodded and said, "Casualties are inevitable in the battle. How are the casualties of our disciples?"
Zhong Jian said, "A few fourth generation Blood Condensation disciples died. More than a dozen people were injured, including four or five Core Forging cultivators."
Lu Ping took out a dozen jade bottles from his storage artifact and said, "These are some healing pills I refined. Senior Brother, please give them to them!"
Zhong Jian smiled and took the jade bottles. "I wonder if they will be willing to eat them if they know they are refined by you!"
At this time, Zhong Jian suddenly thought of something and waved behind him. An early Core Forging cultivator was brought over.
Zhong Jian saw Lu Ping's questioning expression and explained, "Although this person's cultivation base isn't high, he seems to have a high status among the cultivators from Cang Hai Sect who ambushed our sect's mine. When I found him, he was being escorted by several Cang Hai Sect Core Forging Realm cultivators. Your Senior Martial Sister Ma and I joined forces to kill them and capture this person alive. Only then did we discover that this person seems to be a mine seeker like Senior Martial Brother Xuan Wei."
"Oh?"
Lu Ping looked at the unconscious early Core Forging cultivator and said, "We can use this to make a fuss."
At the same time, in the southeastern part of the North Sea, three cultivators were patrolling this area.
"Senior Brother Wu, are those two cultivators from Middle Earth really the ones who killed Uncle-Master Kun Yu?"
Wu Shihuan nodded. "The North Sea doesn't seem to be peaceful recently. From the information we received from Xuan Ling Sect, it seems that there are many external forces trying to intervene in the North Sea. Not long after Uncle-Master Kun Yu was killed, these two cultivators from the Central Plains appeared in this region, accompanied by the leader of the Four Seas Sect. They even killed several Xuan Ling Sect disciples and spies from other sects. Based on the timing, these two cultivators from the Central Plains seem to be the most suspicious."
Ma Shifang, who was at the side, nodded and said, "There's also the Four Seas Sect Leader. That person used to have dealings with the Overturned Seas Sect. He once used the Overturned Seas Sect's secret teleportation array to travel between the East Sea and the North Sea cultivation world. After that, there seemed to be some small misunderstandings between him and the Overturned Seas Sect because of the uneven distribution of loot. However, that person knows some of the Overturned Seas Sect's secrets.
"That's not all." Wu Shihuan paused and said, "From the looks of the Xuan Ling Sect disciples who managed to escape and saw these two people from afar, it is highly likely that these two Dharma adepts from Middle Plains are from the top family in Middle Plains, the Yuwen family."
As soon as Wu Shihuan finished speaking, Ma Shifang and Zhang Shijie looked at each other. Both of them could see the surprise in each other's eyes. If it was really the Yuwen family who did it, then this matter was not as simple as they had imagined.
"No matter what, anyone who dares to kill a cultivator from the Crystal Palace, even the five holy lands of Middle Earth will have to pay the price!"
Wu Shihuan said coldly.
"Of course!"
Ma Shifang and Zhang Shijie said in unison. Water Crystal Palace had always been protective of their own. Regardless of who their opponent was, Water Crystal Palace would always be supported by an uncompromising spirit. This was also because Water Crystal Palace was one of the six most powerful leviathans of the cultivation world to begin with.
"Senior Wu, we have been in North Sea for a few days now. We have yet to find the two cultivators from Middle Earth. Could it be that they are no longer here?"
Wu Shihuan looked at Ma Shifang and said, "That is possible. What do you think, Junior Zhang?"
Zhang Shijie thought for a while and said, "It is not a good idea to continue searching like this. I heard that the Ping, Ping, Four Seas Gang, had accompanied these two on a patrol in this area. Now, the most important thing in the world of North Sea is undoubtedly the fight for the spirit stone mine on Frost Island. I heard that the Four Seas Gang is also one of the twelve small forces in North Sea. Could the disciples of the Yuwen family be on Frost Island?"
"Only in the North Sea can a low-level gang like the Four Seas Gang be able to form a small force!"
Wu Shihuan looked at Ma Shifang and said with a smile, "But Junior Brother Zhang is right. Let's make a trip to Frost Island. Xuan Ling Sect had asked us for help before, but I rejected them. Now, let's go and meet the big shots of the North Sea's cultivation world!"
It was not easy to defeat a Dharma adept, but it was even harder to kill a Dharma adept. However, the hardest part was to capture a Dharma adept alive.
Just as Lu Ping had easily knocked He Xiyun unconscious and captured her alive, the situation on Frost Island had reached a point where it could explode at any moment.
Strictly speaking, it was an extremely delicate and dangerous moment. And all of this was because of the two people who were chatting in the Central Ice Palace.
"I did not expect Young Master Yuwen to be here. No wonder Chief Zheng of the Four Seas Gang is so high-profile. I am Bai Jishan of the Taixuan Sect!"
A cultivator walked out from behind Dongkun Laozu. At first, they thought it was a disciple of the Canghai Sect, but they did not expect it to be a Dharma adept Laozu who had hidden his cultivation.
Taixuan Sect? Could it be the Taixuan Sect of the plains, one of the large sects in Middle Earth?
Although North Sea was isolated, they were still familiar with the names of the five holy lands of Middle Earth and the large sects.
Wait, there was also "Young Master Yuwen"?
Who was this person? Could he be the number one family in the cultivation world, the Yuwen clan, which was on equal footing with the five holy lands?
The cultivators who had been whispering because of the sudden appearance of a Taixuan Sect cultivator in Canghai Sect all followed Bai Jishan's gaze and looked at the two cultivators, one old and one young, behind Chief Zheng of the Four Seas Gang.
The young man who was originally wearing the ordinary clothes of the Four Seas Gang turned his hand gracefully and a folding fan appeared in his hand. As he opened the fan, a graceful and elegant aura burst out of the young man's body. Even the tacky clothes of the Four Seas Gang could not conceal it.
"So it is the head disciple of the third generation of the Taixuan Sect. No wonder you know this young master. What, the Taixuan Sect is not going to deal with your old rival, the Heavenly Profound Sect, but is interested in this North Sea?"
The status and strength of the Yuwen family in Middle Earth were higher than that of the Taixuan Sect, but there was no need for Bai Jishan to lower himself in front of the disciples of the Yuwen family. Earlier, he was just showing respect to the Yuwen family out of etiquette.
At that moment, Bai Jishan also smiled and said, "Didn't Young Master Yuwen also come to the North Sea?"
After saying that, he glanced at Chief Zheng of the Four Seas Gang. What he did not say was clearly: Also, you found such a fool to be your tour guide. Aren't you afraid of disgracing the reputation of the Yuwen family?
The old man saw Bai Jishan's eyes and immediately became angry. A mid Dharma stage aura suddenly burst out of the old man, and the cultivators in the Ice Palace were shocked.
Unexpectedly, Young Master Yuwen reached out his hand. Seeing this, the old man immediately withdrew his aura, just like a late Core Forging cultivator who was at the end of his life. However, at this moment, no cultivator in the Ice Palace dared to look down on this old man.
Young Master Yuwen ignored Bai Jishan's words and said with a smile, "I came to the North Sea just to travel around the world. Coincidentally, Chief Zheng took care of me a lot, so I have to return the favor. I came to the Frost Island to support Chief Zheng, and also to see the talents of the North Sea. I have no intention of meddling in the affairs of the North Sea!"
Young Master Yuwen's words seemed to be talking to Bai Jishan, but in fact, he was telling the sects in the North Sea that this had nothing to do with the Yuwen family, and was just his personal matter.
Hearing this, many cultivators in the North Sea secretly let out a sigh of relief. The pressure on the Yuwen family was too great. If they really wanted to meddle in the affairs of the North Sea, even the Crystal Palace would have to give them some face.
But even so, no one in the North Sea dared to turn a deaf ear to Chief Zheng of the Four Seas Gang's seemingly overconfident request. They even mocked and ridiculed him. There were even people who were secretly thinking if they should support the Four Seas Gang to get a bigger share.
"Alright!"
Bai Jishan clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Since Young Master Yuwen has no intention of meddling in the affairs of the North Sea, then I will talk about the distribution plan of my Taixuan Sect and Blue Sea Sect …"
"Wait!"
Liu Tianling sternly interrupted Bai Jishan's words and said, "Since this is a matter of the North Sea, what right does Fellow Bai have to comment on it? In this sect master's opinion, Fellow Bai should just watch from the side."
Bai Jishan's expression changed, and he said, "You must be Chief Liu of Zhenling. You are indeed tyrannical. I have long heard that Zhenling is known as the number one sect in the North Sea, and its sect is arrogant and domineering. You should know that the world of cultivation is very big. What do you, Zhenling, count for?"
Liu Tianling snorted coldly and said, "Zhenling naturally does not dare to be arrogant in the world of cultivation, but we also know that this Frost Island mine belongs to the cultivation world of the North Sea. The Taixuan Sect you belong to may be a large sect in the Middle Earth, but you do not have the right to stretch your hands into the cultivation world of the North Sea. If you are determined to do this, you must ask the sects of the North Sea if they agree!"
As soon as Liu Tianling finished speaking, Xuan Ling Sect's Ancestor Daoxuan suddenly said, "Our sect agrees with Sect Leader Liu's opinion. The north sea's cultivation world has the final say. Fellow Daoist Bai, it's best if you don't interfere!"
The unexpected alliance of Zhen Ling and Xuan Ling Sects was unexpected, but after thinking about it carefully, it was reasonable.
The spirit stone mines of Frost Island occupied a quarter of the total. They were the strongest of all the great forces. This time, Blue Sea Sect and the Profound Profound Sect were helping to redistribute the spirit stone mines. Naturally, these two sects were the first to be provoked.
Under such circumstances, although Xuan Ling Sect and Zhenling had never been on good terms, they had no choice but to temporarily ally for the sake of common interests.
Although the sects of the North Sea had not expressed their stance due to Bai Jishan's identity as a disciple of a large sect in the Middle Earth, Bai Jishan could also sense the rejection of him by the cultivators of the other sects.
However, Bai Jishan did not care and turned to look at Blue Sea Sect.
