After conquering Baiyue, the cultivators of the Three Realms had gained a foothold on the Three Realms Island. If the cultivators had stayed on the island, nothing would have happened.
However, as a cultivator, there were always some reasons to leave the island. It was normal for them to encounter a battle on the chaotic Ten Thousand Manifestations Sea and die.
The Three Realms Island was not the only one to face such a problem. Any force that came to the Ten Thousand Manifestations Sea would encounter a similar situation. Therefore, although there were only a few dozen people on the list, it was still acceptable for all the cultivators on the Three Realms Island.
What made Lu Ye feel strange was the newly promoted Yue Yao called Wei Po. Looking at the time next to his name, Wei Po had met with an accident a year ago. However, his name was different from the others. Everyone else's names were blood-red, but Wei Po's was blue.
"What's going on?" Lu Ye asked.
Luan Xiaoe said, "Other than Wei Po, everyone else on the list has died. Only Wei Po is still alive, and he's in the Ten Thousand Manifestations Sea!"
"Where?" Lu Ye asked.
"I'm not sure!" Luan Xiaoe shook her head. "We suspect that Wei Po has been captured alive and imprisoned on a spiritual island in the Ten Thousand Manifestations Sea. Junior Brother Wei Po's sound talisman can still be contacted, but no one responded to the message!"
Lu Ye couldn't help but frown.
Although Wei Po was a newly promoted Yue Yao, he was still a Yue Yao. On the Ten Thousand Manifestations Sea, under the premise that Rizhao wouldn't make a move, the only person who could capture him alive must be Yue Yao. Moreover, the other party's strength was far above Wei Po's, otherwise, it would be impossible for them to do this. Therefore, the person who captured Wei Po was most likely a late-stage Yue Yao.
The other party had captured Wei Po but didn't kill him. This was very thought-provoking. Judging from the current situation, the person who had secretly attacked didn't seem to want to take Wei Po's life. Otherwise, Wei Po wouldn't have been able to survive for a year.
"Do you have any suspects?" Lu Ye asked.
Luan Xiaoe nodded. "The Ten Thousand Manifestations Island!"
Lu Ye was stunned. "It can't be, right?" The Ten Thousand Manifestations Island was a signboard. It was a top-grade spiritual island in the local star system and had never participated in the conflicts between the various forces. This was because the local star system had several Sunshine Protectors on the island. Thousand Manifestations Island, so no matter what kind of storms on the Ten thousand Manifestations Sea, they remained unmoved.
But from another point of view, if the Island of Versatility were to make a move, Wei Po wouldn't be able to stop it …
"Yuan Du?" Lu Yeyin seemed to understand.
...... Thousand Thousand Island's Sunshine Island. and Yu Huan Island, Yu Huan, Yu Huan. was Island island island's Yu Huan.. was of the Hundred Thousand island's island master was Island's Yu Yu Yu was Thousand Island Island...
"I also guessed that it was him."
Lu Ye found it hard to believe. "He's Sunshine. Why would he bother Three World Island over such a small matter?"
Luan Xiaoe sighed, "You underestimate the impact of that incident on Yuan Du."
"What do you mean?" Lu Ye asked.
Luan Xiaoe explained, "Originally, there were only three Sunshine Guardians in the Wanxiang Sea. However, ever since a powerful cultivator arrived that year and killed one of them and successfully escaped, the number of Sunshine Guardians in the local star system increased to five. Yuan Du was one of them. He had just arrived and was in urgent need of a Spiritual Island to submit to him. Baiyue was the first to submit to him. After we defeated Baiyue and killed Baiyue and Yueyao, Yu Huan escaped. Yuan Du was even willing to step in personally to protect his life. He was not only protecting Yu Huan's life but also his own prestige. In the end …"
... But............ "Lu Ye's words forced Yuan Du to kill Yu Huan in front of everyone.
In this way, Yuan Du seemed to have maintained the rules of fairness, but it was a fatal blow to his prestige. This was because everyone knew what had happened.
Baiyue joined him, but Baiyue was conquered. Even the Island Master was killed by him. Once this was out, who would dare to visit him? Even if they were interested, they would change their minds.
In this way, in the entire Ten Thousand Manifestations Sea, other than the few spiritual islands that Yuan Du had visited in the beginning, he had no other gains after so many years. This directly caused the cultivators from the Yi Yuan Realm to not be able to obtain enough places to cultivate in the Ten Thousand Manifestations Sea.
After listening to Luan Xiaoe's explanation, Lu Ye understood that the incident that year had a huge impact on Yuan Du's prestige. It was normal for him to hate the Three Worlds Island. If it were not for the rules, he would have done it himself.
Although he could not do it openly, he could do some small tricks in the dark.
"Besides Junior Brother Wei Po, we have investigated the other cultivators who died. There are some clues that point to the Ten Thousand Manifestations Island. Unfortunately, there is no conclusive evidence."
If Yuan Du was really behind this, he would not have left any clues. Besides Wei Po, the list of dead cultivators was full of constellations.
In this vast Ten Thousand Manifestations Sea, the death of constellations was a common occurrence. Even if the Three Worlds Island wanted to investigate, they could not find any concrete information.
"They captured Wei Po but did not kill him. What do they want?" Lu Ye asked.
Luan Xiaoe shook her head. This was also what she did not understand. If the other party wanted to use Wei Po to threaten the Three Worlds Island, they were obviously wrong.
The Three Worlds Island was a spiritual island shared by all the cultivators of the Three Worlds. Although Luan Xiaoe was the Island Master, she could not sacrifice the interests of all the cultivators for Wei Po.
What puzzled Luan Xiaoe even more was that it had been a year, and the other party had not taken the initiative to contact them.
"Is Old Tang still running around outside?" Lu Ye suddenly asked.
Luan Xiaoe smiled, "Don't worry about him. He has a top defensive magic treasure. Even if he encounters any enemies, he can hold on for a while as long as the sun does not come out. He has a lot of friends. In this vast Ten Thousand Manifestations Sea, he has friends everywhere. As long as they are not stupid, they will not be stupid enough to attack him."
Lu Ye nodded and was slightly relieved. Old Tang knew that he was not strong enough, so he put in a lot of effort to protect his life. When he was surrounded by Yue Yao of Baiyue, he also held on until Lu Ye came to his rescue.
Now, Old Tang's defensive magic treasures were even stronger than before. After all, he did not lack money.
At this moment, Luan Xiaoe suddenly turned her head and looked in a direction, "He's here."
Lu Ye also sensed Tang Jun's aura. Looking at the direction he was moving in, he was coming here.
After a few breaths, Tang Jun rushed into the bamboo house with a ruddy face. He glanced at Lu Ye in surprise, "You're really back?"
Lu Ye had been back for a few days. However, he went straight to the mermaid territory after returning, so he did not show his face on the island, nor did he contact Old Tang.
"Where did you come from?" Luan Xiaoe frowned, mainly because Old Tang reeked of alcohol.
"Socializing, socializing!" Tang Jun explained casually. He turned to look at Lu Ye, then took out a storage ring and handed it to Lu Ye, "Someone asked me to give this to you."
Lu Ye took it, puzzled, "Who?"
"I don't know," Tang Jun shook his head, "But that guy's Demonic Qi is very strong. It seems he's a monster."
Actually, he didn't know that Lu Ye had already returned, because he hadn't been on the Three World Island for a while. But today, he had been stopped by the Yao. After asking about Lu Ye's identity, the Yao tossed the storage ring to him and told him to give it to Lu Ye.
After hearing Tang Jun's explanation, Lu Ye fiddled with the storage ring in his hand. Using his Divine Sense, he found that there were no restrictions on the storage ring, so it could be opened easily.
"Be careful!" Luan Xiaoe reminded.
No one knew what was inside the storage ring. If there was something vicious inside, it would be inappropriate to take it out rashly.
Lu Ye nodded, "It's fine." Using his Divine Sense, he already knew what was inside.
He immediately took it out.
A fragrant pouch and a jade slip.
"This is …" Luan Xiaoe's eyes immediately focused on the fragrant pouch.
Lu Ye was curious about the fragrant pouch's name, but he looked up at Luan Xiaoe and asked, "Senior Sister, have you seen this before?"
"Let me see." Luan Xiaoe reached out and picked up the fragrant pouch. After examining it carefully for a while, her face darkened. "That's right. This belongs to Junior Brother Wei Po. I saw him carrying it with him all the time. It was a parting gift from a girl he liked in his early years!"
"Wei Po's item?" Lu Ye raised his eyebrows.
This matter was interesting. He was just talking to Luan Xiaoe about Wei Po's matter and was still guessing who had killed Wei Po. He never thought that in the blink of an eye, Tang Jun would actually bring back Wei Po's sachet.
Needless to say, the monster that gave the storage ring to Tang Jun was the one who did it!
Luan Xiaoe realized this and quickly asked, "Senior Brother Tang, what is the background of that monster?"
Tang Jun shook his head. "I don't know. He left after giving me the item. He did not tell me his background, so I did not think of tracking him down." He changed the topic and said, "However, he is a monster. It is not impossible to investigate him. There are not many Spiritual Islands on the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea with monster cultivators."
"There is no need to investigate," Lu Ye suddenly said.
Both of them looked at him.
Lu Ye passed the jade slip in his hand to Luan Xiaoe. "Take a look. He has already stated his background."
Luan Xiaoe took a look and was in disbelief. "Purple Jade Island! How could it be Purple Jade Island? "
There was no other information in the jade slip except for the three words, Purple Jade Island!
Based on her previous deduction, it should be Yuan Du from the Ten Thousand Elephant Island who secretly targeted the cultivators of the Three World Island. He was not the one who did it, but he must have secretly instructed them.
Since that was the case, the few Spiritual Islands that sided with Yuan Du were all suspects.
She did not think of Purple Jade Island!
This was because Purple Jade Island was famous in the entire Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. Behind Purple Jade Island was the Purple Jade Demon Star, which was a top realm!
Generally speaking, Spiritual Islands that were occupied by top realms did not need to be worshipped. This was because they were confident enough to stand on the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. No matter how the other Spiritual Islands changed their ownership, no one would pay attention to them.
If Yuan Du held a grudge against the Three World Island because of what happened in the past, it was understandable. However, why would Purple Jade Island do this? This did not make sense at all.
