Half a day later, Lu Ye brought He Baichuan and Ma Shangsi to a deserted island. This deserted island was very small, about two to three acres in size. Therefore, even the weakest forces would not be interested in such a deserted island.
Lu Ye rushed to this place and turned his head to take a look. He did not see Ma Shangsi. However, he quickly turned his head to look in a certain direction. In the crevices of the rocks, blood was flowing out. Very quickly, it formed a human shape and revealed Ma Shangsi's figure.
"Where?" Lu Ye looked at him and asked.
Ma Shangsi shook his head and said, "I am not sure where exactly. When I reached this place, the trail was cut off." Tracking two Yue Yao was not an easy task, especially when they were on the Vientiane Sea. There were not many places to hide. This was a test of the tracker's patience and skills.
Although Ma Shangsi could use some secret techniques to hide his body and aura, he did not dare to get too close. As a result, when he reached this place, the other party's aura suddenly disappeared.
However, this did not mean that Ma Shangsi's tracking had failed.
"The Spiritual Island that they are on should be nearby. The trail was cut off because they entered their own Spiritual Island and were isolated by a formation."
Lu Ye nodded and immediately took out his star map to check.
After some exploration, he confirmed two locations. These two places were both Spiritual Islands. On the star map, one was a middle-grade Spiritual Island and the other was a high-grade Spiritual Island.
These two Spiritual Islands were the most suspicious. If he was not wrong, the enemy should be from one of these two Spiritual Islands.
After all, from their previous interactions, a force that could mobilize five Yue Yao at once would not be weak. As for how strong it was, it was hard to say.
The forces behind these two Spiritual Islands were very suitable.
Choosing one of the two seemed simple, but it was actually very troublesome. Unless they sent people to keep watch near these two Spiritual Islands for a long time. However, if they did so, it would definitely raise the alarm of others. The various Spiritual Islands were very strict in their security and management of their surroundings.
After thinking about it, Lu Ye sent a message to Tang Jun. Given the current situation, he could only ask Tang Jun to think of a way to find out what was going on. If he could find out what was going on, that would be for the best. If he couldn't, he could only send someone to keep watch. That was the last option.
Tang Jun quickly replied, "I took a look at the star map. Your location isn't far from Four Corners Island. You should know something about the Four Corners Star System. Why don't you ask them?"
Lu Ye's eyes lit up. This was a pleasant surprise. He quickly checked the star map to find the location of Square Island, but no matter how hard he searched, there was no indication of Square Island on the star map.
Only then did he remember that he had bought this star chart a long time ago. When he bought this star chart, the cultivators from the Four Directions Star Systems had yet to arrive.
Square Island was obviously the name of a spiritual island that the cultivators from the Square Galaxy had taken over.
Lu Ye had the musical imprint of a few Yue Yao from the Four Corners Star System. Previously, the Four Corners Star System even had the intention of joining forces with the Three Worlds Island. This alliance was actually a form of protection. The Four Corners Star System was indebted to Lu Ye. Before they came, Rizhao from the various families had instructed them to take care of Lu Ye when they arrived at the Wanxiang Star System.
In terms of strength, the Four Corners Star System was much stronger than the Three Worlds Island. They wanted to help the Three Worlds Island conquer a middle-grade spiritual island.
However, Lu Ye declined. With the Minor Constellation Hall, the Three Worlds Island would be able to rise up sooner or later. There was no need for them to conquer other spiritual islands.
Moreover, the Three Worlds Island's cultivators were not strong enough at that time. Lu Ye did not want to rashly get involved in the Four Corners Star System's operations. He did not want to bring trouble to himself.
The Four Corners Star System obviously knew this. Hence, they did not take the initiative to contact the Three Worlds Island after that. This was not because they had grown distant, but because they realized that if they were too close to the Three Worlds Island, they might bring trouble to the Three Worlds Island.
Hence, when Lu Ye contacted them, the Yue Yao from the Four Corners Star System were very happy.
Lu Ye did not go directly to the Three Worlds Island. Instead, he waited on the deserted island.
After a while, someone came. When they saw each other, the person greeted him warmly, "Daoist Lu!"
"Daoist Zhou!" Lu Ye cupped his fists. "Sorry to trouble you."
The person who came was none other than Zhou Chuang from the Black North Star System. He was a late-stage Yue Yao. In fact, he was not the only late-stage Yue Yao. The Yue Yao from the Four Corners Star System were all at the same cultivation level.
In the Four Corners Star System, Lu Ye interacted with Apeiron the most. As he had passed by Apeiron twice, he had interacted with many of Apeiron's Yue Yao.
However, he was most emotionally biased towards the Black North Star. This was because when he was in the Unbounded Realm, Black North Star's Sunshine and Qin Yi visited him at night. She personally thanked Lu Ye and gave him a token. With this token, Lu Ye could unconditionally mobilize all forces in the Black North Star System in the Wanxiang Sea.
Although the other three star systems' Sunshine did not treat Lu Ye badly, they were not as direct as Qin Yi. After all, Lu Ye had killed Bai Jin. It could be said that he had avenged Qin Yi's dead dao partner.
Zhou Chuang chuckled. "You're too kind, Daoist Lu. Before we came, the Realm Lord had instructed us to cooperate fully with you if you need anything." As he spoke, he was stunned. He looked Lu Ye up and down and said in astonishment, "Daoist, you're … a Yue Yao?"
"I advanced by luck." Lu Ye nodded.
"Congratulations, congratulations!" Zhou Chuang congratulated him. Previously, Lu Ye was only a Star Constellation. He was one level lower than a Yue Yao. Now, they were both Yue Yao. Although Lu Ye's cultivation level was slightly lower, there was no difference in terms of cultivation level.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Chuang said, "Daoist, do you have any instructions for me?"
"You flatter me. I just want to ask you about two people." As Lu Ye spoke, he gave Ma Shangsi a look.
Lu Ye originally wanted Ma Shangsi to describe the appearances of the two people he had been tracking. However, he did not expect this guy to take out an Image Recording Stone and hand it to Zhou Chuang.
When he had been tracking the enemies, he had actually left behind some images!
He had done a good job.
Images were undoubtedly more accurate than verbal descriptions. Even if the images in Ma Shangsi's Image-Recording Stone weren't very clear, he didn't dare to get too close to Yue Yao. Moreover, recording Yue Yao's images was actually very risky.
Zhou Chuang took the Image Recording Stone and examined it carefully. Then, he frowned and said, "According to my judgment, the taller person should be Baiyue Island's Yu Huan."
"Are you sure?" Lu Ye asked.
Zhou Chuang said, "I'm 70% sure. If there are other images to prove it, it should be clearer."
Lu Ye was basically certain that Baiyue Island was the one behind the sneak attack on Tang Jun. This was because he had determined from the star map that the high-grade Spiritual Island was Baiyue Island!
Lu Ye had originally thought that it was the middle-grade Spiritual Island that was behind this. Because they were only a middle-grade Spiritual Island, they had taken a fancy to a high-grade Spiritual Island like Three Realm Island and wanted to move to a better base.
Unexpectedly, it was Baiyue Island!
This was very strange. Since they had already occupied a high-grade Spiritual Island, why were they interested in Three Realm Island? Were they not afraid that they would eat too much?
Although it was not a rule on the surface, basically, other than those worlds with a strong foundation who could occupy a Spiritual Island alone, most forces acted in groups of galaxies.
It was very rare for a galaxy to occupy two Spiritual Islands at the same time. This involved the problem of dividing the resources of the Wanxiang Sea. Many things were tacitly understood.
Zhou Chuang looked at Lu Ye in confusion, "My friend, what grudges do you have with Baiyue Island?"
Zhou Chuang and the others knew that the Three Realm Island had been promoted to a high-class Spirit Island, and they were envious. After all, not everyone could experience something like being reborn on a deserted island. The cultivators of the Three Realm had effortlessly obtained a high-class Spirit Island as their base.
Three Realm Island was already a high-grade Spiritual Island. Therefore, Zhou Chuang felt that Lu Ye did not want to attack Baiyue Island. With the foundation of the cultivators of the Three Realm, they would not be able to defend it. If that was the case, then there must be some grudges between them.
"There are some conflicts. Our people were ambushed by them previously." Lu Ye did not hide it because it was not a big deal. This kind of thing happened frequently on the Wanxiang Sea. Take Zhou Chuang for example. It was not strange for him to be ambushed when he went out.
During this period, the Four Direction Galaxy had not been idle. They had caused a lot of trouble.
"They want to attack you?" Zhou Chuang immediately reacted. Although they did not contact Three Realm Island, they knew about the situation there. The cultivators of the Three Realm had not caused any trouble recently. Since they came to provoke them, it was obvious that they had set their sights on Three Realm Island.
"That should be the case." Lu Ye nodded. "That's why I have to make the first move."
Zhou Chuang immediately said, "Count Beixuan in!"
He did not say Four Direction Galaxy because he could not represent it. He could only represent Beixuan's part.
Lu Ye smiled. "Thank you for your kindness. If Three Realm Island wants to establish itself, they have to do it themselves. They can't rely on external help. Moreover, this matter involves Rizhao."
When Zhou Chuang heard this, he roughly understood what was going on. Although he had arrived at the Wanxiang Sea later than Lu Ye, he knew a lot of things about the Wanxiang Sea better than Lu Ye. For example, the matter of visiting a mountain … because the Four Way Galaxy had been doing the same thing recently.
"Which Rizhao?" Zhou Chuang asked.
"Yuan Du!"
"Him …" Zhou Chuang immediately looked angry. "We've been in contact with his people before. This Rizhao is insatiably greedy."
Lu Ye asked curiously, "You've been in contact with him for invading a mountain too?"
Zhou Chuang sighed. "At first, we thought things were too simple. We thought that with Four Direction Galaxy's resources, it would not be a problem to take down a high-class spiritual island. However, when we started preparing, we realized that the Wanxiang Sea's waters were deeper than we thought."
After Four Direction Galaxy took over Four Direction Island, they tried to attack a high-class spiritual island. On the surface, they had a slight advantage. After all, they had a lot of constellations.
However, when they started fighting, Four Direction Island was ambushed by another group of forces.
In a panic, they hurriedly withdrew their troops to protect Four Corner Island. It was only later that they found out that the force they attacked and the second force that ambushed them were both under the same Sunshine. That was why they had such a close relationship and cooperation.
