Back then, when Little Jiu had shown Lu Ye the scene of the Land of the Nine Prefectures being besieged by various experts, Lu Ye had seen the shocking scene of starships of all shapes and sizes gathering in the sky. Although he had not been in the Myriad Phenomenon Galaxy for a long time, he had seen some starships sweeping across the starry sky.
If it was just a Planetary Boat blocking his way, Lu Ye could ignore it. After all, they were both using Planetary Boats. Even if his Planetary Boat was the cheapest one, the other party would not be able to forcefully stop it.
However, it was a different story if it was intercepted by a starship. If it insisted on resisting, the starship might not be able to withstand an attack from the other party.
After stopping the Planetary Boat, Lu Ye immediately sensed a Divine Sense spreading out. Three figures walked out of the Planetary Boat opposite him. Two of them stood on the left and the other on the right, blocking the possible escape routes of the Planetary Boat. The last person landed directly on the Planetary Boat.
Lu Ye didn't panic, because in the Myriad Phenomenon Galaxy, strategic weapons like starships generally belonged to the major forces of the galaxy. They wouldn't make things difficult for an outsider like him, so as to avoid ruining their reputation. The most likely reason was that they wanted to do something. Sure enough, after the late-stage Constellation cultivator landed on the Star Boat, he stood still and cupped his fists towards Lu Ye, "Fellow Daoist, sorry for disturbing you!"
His tone was very polite.
"What's the matter?" Lu Ye asked.
The man was a little surprised. "The Young Master of Che Ling Realm's Thousand Sunset Sect has run away from home again. We are under orders to assist in the search, so we want to check your Planetary Boat to see if it is hiding anything."
Lu Ye waved his hand. "My Planetary Boat is only so big. You can check it yourselves."
The Planetary Boat he bought was only worth thirty thousand spirit jades, and it could only carry two to three people. It was obvious at a glance that it was impossible to hide anything.
The late-stage Constellation Cultivator nodded. "Please forgive us for disturbing you, Fellow Daoist. Also, I want to inform you that the Thousand Sunset Sect will reward you with twenty thousand spirit jades if you can provide any useful clues. If you can bring the Young Master back, you will be rewarded with a hundred thousand spirit jades!"
It was true that the Thousand Sunset Sect had offered such a generous reward just because the Young Master had run away from home. It was obvious that the Thousand Sunset Sect was a sect that did not lack spirit jades.
Come to think of it, the local forces of the Wanxiang Galaxy relied on the mountains and the sea for their livelihood. With such a large Wanxiang Ocean here, there was probably no one who lacked money.
"This is the young master's image, as well as some relevant information about his physical characteristics." As the late-stage Constellation Master spoke, he handed Lu Ye a jade slip.
Lu Ye took it and looked at it briefly before nodding slightly. "I understand."
Suddenly, he realized that the cultivators he encountered on the way back had most likely received the news and were searching for the Young Master of the Myriad Dawn Sect. For any Constellation, the Ten Thousand Sunset Sect's reward was extremely generous. Just providing effective clues was worth twenty thousand Spirit Jades. If they could bring that Young Master back, it would be worth a hundred thousand Spirit Jades. Compared to finding work on Zhao Lei Island, this was undoubtedly more attractive.
"Sorry to disturb you!" The late-stage Star Constellation Realm cultivator apologized and was about to leave.
Lu Ye muttered to himself for a moment before calling out, "Fellow Daoist, please wait!" The man turned around and asked, "Is there something else?"
Lu Ye said, "Since this Young Master ran away from home, he probably won't go back with others willingly, right? If we really find him, won't we have to fight him and subdue him with force? If we injure him … "
The late-stage Star Constellation Realm cultivator smiled. "Fellow Daoist, please don't worry about this. Senior Jiuyan has already said that as long as we don't kill him or leave him with untreatable injuries, it doesn't matter how we punish him. Oh, Senior Jiuyan is that Young Master's birth mother. She's also a Sunshine Realm cultivator, so Fellow Daoist, you don't have to feel burdened."
After a pause, he continued, "However, if you really want to fight with that Young Master, you still have to be careful because he has a lot of treasures on him. I heard that he also has the red talisman that Senior Jiuyan gave him. If he activates the red talisman and kills you, you'll have died for nothing!"
Lu Ye nodded slightly. "Different people have different lives. With a Sunshine Realm cultivator as his birth mother, he can indeed do whatever he wants."
The late-stage Star Constellation Realm cultivator smiled and left without saying anything else. After a while, he and his companions boarded the starship and left.
Lu Ye stopped in place and pondered for a moment. Then, he turned around and went back the way he came.
Although the image of the Young Master recorded in the jade slip was different from the one he saw on the desolate star, some of the characteristics were the same.
Especially the cultivation. According to the jade slip, the Young Master's cultivation was at the early-stage Star Constellation Realm. The young man he saw was also at the early-stage Star Constellation Realm.
Originally, he only suspected that the young man might be the guy who ran away from home. However, when the late-stage Star Constellation Realm cultivator mentioned the red talisman, Lu Ye was almost certain that the young man he saw was the Young Master of the Thousand Sunset Sect.
As for the appearance … It was very common to have treasures that could change one's appearance. When Lu Ye was active in the Nine Prefectures, he even bought some face masks.
That Young Master had a Sunshine Realm cultivator as his backer. What kind of treasures couldn't he get?
He also didn't expect that the young man he met by chance was actually a walking 100,000 spirit jades! Since the birth mother of the Thousand Sunset Sect had said that as long as the young man wasn't killed or left with untreatable injuries, there was no need to hesitate.
Moreover, Lu Ye also noticed that the Young Master of the Thousand Sunset Sect had run away from home again …
This meant that he had done this more than once.
He probably had the experience of being beaten up and brought back.
One day later, Lu Ye returned to the desolate star.
With a glance, he saw traces of cultivators entering and leaving the desolate star. Obviously, they were looking for the Young Master. However, it was obvious that they didn't find anything. Ran away?
Lu Ye frowned slightly.
Since the young man ran away from home, it was obvious that he didn't want to be found again. Previously, he accidentally bumped into Lu Ye. Fearing that his whereabouts would be exposed, it was normal for him to leave quickly. However, at that time, Lu Ye didn't know about this at all. How could he have thought that he would capture him on the spot?
Instead, he missed out on a windfall.
However, since he was already here, Lu Ye decided to search for him.
He flew over the surface of the desolate star at a low altitude. He spread out his Divine Perception and searched carefully. However, he didn't find anything.
That Young Master of the Thousand Sunset Sect called Chu Shen might have really run away.
The desolate star wasn't big. With Lu Ye's cultivation at the mid-stage Star Constellation Realm, it would take him at most four hours to search the entire place.
He thought that there was no hope.
Who knew that when he passed by a place, he would see some clues with a glance.
This was the place where he chatted with Ma Bin previously. There was originally a cave here, but when he passed by it now, he realized that the cave had disappeared.
There was no reason for such a big cave to disappear for no reason. Even if it was destroyed, there should be some traces left behind.
However, in reality, there weren't any traces left behind.
Lu Ye floated in the air at the original location of the cave. He understood that there was probably some kind of formation set up here to conceal it.
Moreover, the method of setting up the formation was quite brilliant. Otherwise, the Star Constellation Realm cultivators who came here to search wouldn't have noticed it.
This meant that Chu Shen was hiding here.
He was a smart guy. However, it was a pity that he was too smart for his own good. He naturally thought that Lu Ye wouldn't return after leaving. However, he didn't know that when Lu Ye saw him, he didn't know about the Thousand Sunset Sect's reward at all.
He lowered his head and looked down. He observed the structure of the Spirit Veins carefully. After a while, he saw a flaw.
Lu Ye said softly, "Do you want to come out yourself, or do you want me to drag you out?"
There was no response.
Lu Ye didn't waste any time. He directly pulled out his Mountain Saber and slashed down fiercely.
There was clearly nothing in front of him. However, when the long saber landed, a layer of ripples suddenly appeared. A protective light screen blocked Lu Ye's attack.
An exasperated voice sounded, "You promised me before, but now you're back. Do you still have any shame?"
Obviously, he saw Lu Ye's face.
Lu Ye ignored him and continued to slash. To him, it wasn't difficult to break this formation. Although the method of setting up the formation was ingenious, it was still inferior to his. With the Spirit Veins of Insight, the nodes of the formation could be seen clearly.
After three slashes, accompanied by a cry of surprise, the formation collapsed.
The other party obviously didn't expect that the formation he set up would be so weak.
The original cave was revealed, and Lu Ye directly landed at the entrance.
The exasperated voice became more and more manic. It even sounded fierce. "I'm warning you, don't come in. Otherwise, I won't be polite!"
Saying so, a mysterious light suddenly shot out from the cave. Lu Ye was caught off guard and was hit by it. His body suddenly stiffened, as if he was bound by some inexplicable shackles.
"Hahaha!" Loud laughter rang out. As the voice got closer and closer, the owner of the laughter gradually appeared in Lu Ye's vision. It was the young man he had met before. He was holding a mirror in his hand, and the mysterious light was coming from this mirror. This mirror clearly had the power to slow down a person's movements. He first used words to lure Lu Ye into lowering his guard, then suddenly attacked. Sure enough, it was effective. Just from this point alone, it could be seen that he was also a cunning guy.
This was normal. If he was really an inflexible person, he wouldn't have run away from home.
He walked up to Lu Ye and said proudly, "If you left, then you left. Why did you come back and ask for trouble? Just for a little reward? Tell me, should I kill you or not? After all, you found me. If I let you go, you'll definitely go to my mother to claim the reward. "
"You want to kill me?" Lu Ye looked at him indifferently.
Chu Shen showed a difficult expression. "We have no grievances, so I don't really want to kill you. But letting you go is not appropriate. How about this, you become my subordinate and obey my orders from now on!"
Saying so, he took out a long needle-like treasure and poked it at Lu Ye's forehead. "Bear with it, it'll hurt a little. It'll be fine in a while."
Lu Ye didn't know what this long needle was, but from what he said, it seemed that it could make Lu Ye obediently obey.
Just as the long needle was about to poke Lu Ye's forehead, Lu Ye suddenly raised his hand and grabbed his wrist.
Chu Shen's expression became stunned. "How did you …"
It didn't make sense. After being hit by his mirror's mysterious light, a mid-stage Constellation Realm cultivator would be unable to move for at least ten breaths. How could he recover so quickly?
