After such a great battle, there were many things that needed to be taken care of. However, the first thing to do was to return to Three World Island and defend it.
Three World Island had mobilized all of its forces to attack Zi Xuan. Five Yue Yao were registered and two thousand cultivators had arrived at Zi Xuan through the Azure Sea Snail's door.
It could be said that the Three World Island was in a completely defenseless state.
Although no one would dare to cause trouble on Three World Island due to the might of this battle, there were still some things that needed to be taken precautions.
In fact, when they realized that Three World Island had mobilized all of its forces to attack Zi Xuan, there were already many factions that were ready to make trouble and secretly dispatched troops.
This was because if Three World Island's attack on Zi Xuan failed and their losses were too great, they could immediately attack and take over Three World Island.
Although there were still a few newly promoted Yue Yao guarding Three World Island, they hadn't been registered. Even if someone came to attack, they could only watch helplessly and not effectively resist.
Of course, now that the Three World Island had won, and it was an unbelievably crushing victory, the other powers that had been itching to make a move had all given up.
Half a day later, a central warship slowly rose from Zi Xuan. Two large warships accompanied it. The decks of these three warships were filled with berthed Tiger Shark Warships.
This was originally Zi Xuan's huge fleet. A few days ago, it had aggressively attacked Three World Island. Now, it had become spoils of war.
Eight hundred of the two thousand cultivators, most of whom were injured, rode the three warships and arrogantly set off from Zi Xuan.
This scene caused the spectating cultivators to feel incomparably envious.
Disregarding everything else, just that huge central warship was extremely valuable. The value of the entire fleet was difficult to estimate.
However, what was strange was that the three warships didn't seem to be sailing toward Three World Island. No one knew where they were going.
After more than half a day, the destination of the three warships was finally made clear.
Giant Blade Island!
It was actually Giant Blade Island. No one knew why.
However, the three warships were indeed parked outside of Giant Blade Island.
At this moment, on the central warship, a Jade Conch cultivator said, "Senior Martial Brother Ma, why didn't we return to the main island? Why did we come here instead?"
Ma Shangsi scratched his head. "I don't know."
The questioning Yu Conch was confused. You don't know? Then why did you bring us here?
Ma Shangsi continued, "Since Third Island Master has instructed us to do so, we'll just have to take a detour."
He really didn't know why Lu Ye wanted him to wander around Giant Blade Island. This order was given by Lu Ye before he left Zi Xuan, so he didn't ask.
The Jade Conch cultivator couldn't help but have a pensive look on his face. He was naturally no stranger to Giant Blade Island. Last time, when they were fighting the Hundred Yue, Giant Blade Island had intervened. As a result, the cultivators of the Three Realms had stopped in front of Giant Blade Island for a while on their way back. Then, Giant Blade Island had given them some spiritjade and other resources as compensation for breaking Three Realms Island's protective array. Only then had the cultivators of the Three Realms left.
This time, he actually came to stay outside Giant Blade Island. Was it because of what happened last time?
The Third Island Master was too vengeful …
Three battleships were stationed outside the island. Even though Three World Island had no intention of attacking, the entire Giant Blade Island was in chaos.
Zhao Yunqi's face was extremely pale. As he listened to the reports of his subordinates, he couldn't help but recall what had happened a few days ago.
Ma Shangsi didn't know why Lu Ye wanted him to stay here, but Zhao Yunqi knew very well.
It was because on that day at Zi Xuan's banquet, he had gloated over their misfortune and shouted that a murderer must pay with his life!
At that time, he had been overjoyed and felt that Zi Xuan was so powerful that Three World Island's Shi Wei wasn't a match for her. In a moment of excitement, he had spoken without thinking. How could he have imagined that today's situation would occur?
In fact, he was more concerned about Zi Xuan's battle than anyone else. When he heard that Zi Xuan's protective array had been broken, that Yue Yao had been killed one after another, and that Three World Island's cultivators had arrived at Zi Xuan, he had almost fainted.
He had hoped that Three World Island's Lu Ye wouldn't remember such a trivial matter, but now it seemed that the other party was truly vengeful and hadn't forgotten.
She had just dealt with Zi Xuan, and now the enemy was at the city gates.
Fortunately, Three World Island had no intention of attacking Giant Blade Island, so Zhao Yunqi naturally knew what he had to do.
"Hurry up and check the treasury. Take out everything you have." He immediately ordered.
Yue Yao couldn't help but widen her eyes. "Senior Martial Brother Zhao, why are you doing this?"
Zhao Yunqi scowled miserably. "Pay to avoid disaster."
Yue Yao said angrily, "Our Giant Blade Island didn't provoke Three World Island this time. Why are they bullying us like this?" Last time, Giant Blade Island had provoked them first. However, it was different this time. Why was Giant Blade Island the one who got hurt every time?
"Senior Martial Brother, this is intolerable. Let's fight it out with them. They didn't send many cultivators, and Yue Yao seems to be alone. They're no match for us!"
"That's right. Three World Island is too arrogant. We definitely can't compromise this time."
"Please give the order, Senior Martial Brother. We pledge our lives to follow you!"
Amidst the clamor, Zhao Yunqi shouted angrily, "What's there to fight about? Do you think it's easy for our galaxy to occupy a high-grade spiritual island in the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea? That's the legacy of our ancestors. There really aren't that many cultivators from Three World Island outside. We might be able to win, but what happens after that? Everyone, the Violet Jade has been broken! Of all the people on the Moon Jade Continent, only Lionheart managed to escape by hiding in the Island of Versatility. More than half of the Star Constellations are dead. That Lu Ye from the Island of Three Worlds … is not human!
When Lu Ye's name was mentioned, all of the Yue Yao cultivators' morale plummeted.
The title of number one cultivator under the sun was quite intimidating. That guy had killed Yue Yao like they were little chicks. They really couldn't understand how he could be so powerful. They were all Yue Yao.
Zhao Yunqi's expression was full of guilt. "Today's situation is my fault. When I went to Purple Jade's banquet that day, I said something wrong in a moment of anger. Three World Island's arrival was not without reason."
Zhu Yueyao stared at Zhao Yunqi in shock. Only now did they understand the whole story.
As for what Zhao Yunqi had said that day, there was no need to ask. He had definitely said something that had angered Lu Ye.
"Let's take inventory of the treasuries," Zhao Yunqi said with a dispirited expression as he waved his hand.
No one said anything else.
Last time, Giant Blade Island had used up all of their wealth to force Three World Island to retreat. After that, the Solar System had sent them a large amount of resources, which had finally resolved their desperate situation.
Unexpectedly, however, they were forced to tighten their belts again after just a few days of peace.
The Yue Yao cultivators were exasperated. Just go and attend the banquet. Eating and drinking was one thing, but no one would treat you as a mute if you talked too much.
After the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, Zhao Yunqi led a group of cultivators out of Giant Blade Island and landed on the central battleship with a smile on his face.
"Who are you?" Ma Shangsi barked.
Zhao Yunqi hurriedly introduced himself.
Ma Shangsi frowned. "What is it?"
Zhao Yunqi waved his hand, and the cultivators behind him began to move and carry, piling countless resources in front of Ma Shangsi. Very quickly, a small mountain of resources had been piled up.
The reason why they didn't use storage rings was because that would be more impactful and show Giant Blade Island's attitude.
Ma Shangsi was confused. He couldn't understand what was going on.
Zhao Yunqi cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Daoists, you must be tired from the journey. Since you are passing by this island, this island is willing to offer some resources as a host. I hope that Fellow Daoists won't mind."
Ma Shangsi was dumbfounded.
He secretly thought to himself, How could there be such a good thing? Staying outside a Spiritual Island for a while would give him such benefits. If he could visit the other major Spiritual Islands, wouldn't he become the richest person in the world?
Moreover, wasn't the things Giant Blade Island was giving out a bit too much? Although he didn't count them carefully, he roughly knew the value of these resources with just a glance.
There must be a demon behind this abnormality. Ma Shangsi pondered for a moment and said, "Wait a moment!"
He immediately sent a message to Lu Ye.
Soon, he received a reply. Ma Shangsi roughly understood the situation. He looked at Zhao Yunqi indifferently and truthfully conveyed Lu Ye's words. "Island Master Zhao, you can do it twice, but not thrice! If there is a next time, the fate of your island will be unknown. "
Zhao Yunqi let out a long breath, knowing that he had passed this hurdle. He immediately nodded and said, "This Zhao understands. There definitely won't be a next time!"
Ma Shangsi nodded and raised his hand to order, "Return to the island!"
After a short while, the three warships returned with a full load. Zhao Yunqi led a group of Giant Blade Island cultivators behind and shouted, "Farewell, Fellow Daoists!"
After a long time, he raised his head and looked at the three warships that were gradually disappearing into the distance. His face was full of annoyance. With one sentence, he had caused Giant Blade Island to lose tens of millions of spirit jades. He wished he could slap himself a few times.
He turned his head and looked at Yue Yao in a daze. "Junior Martial Brother, return to the star system again and ask for material support."
When Yue Yao heard this, his expression immediately became uncomfortable as if he had eaten shit … Last time, he had gone back to ask for material support. As a result, he had been reprimanded by Rizhao. Why was it him again this time?
Inside Purple Jade Island, Lu Ye put away the sound talisman and ended the communication with Ma Shangsi.
He didn't plan to exterminate Giant Blade Island. There was no need to do so. Not to mention that the Three World Island had defeated Purple Jade. Their cultivators were physically and mentally exhausted, and many of them were injured and needed to recuperate. Moreover, what good would conquering Giant Blade Island do?
Conquering Purple Jade was enough to make the various forces in the Myriad Sea fear the Three World Island. If they attacked Giant Blade Island without stopping, it would only make people think that the Three World Island was arrogant and despotic.
Moreover, that day, Zhao Yunqi had only agreed with a few words of indignation. He hadn't done anything to harm the Three World Island's interests.
That was why he had Ma Shangsi lead the fleet outside Giant Blade Island. Zhao Yunqi was a smart person and naturally knew what to do.
Now that the other party had lost money to avoid disaster and apologized, the matter was over.
Feng Wujiang flew over and shouted to Lu Ye, "Junior Martial Brother, we found the entrance to the spirit jade mine."
"Let's go take a look." Lu Ye immediately became spirited and flew towards the entrance of the spirit jade mine with his Senior Martial Brother. (End of Chapter)
