Lu An frowned slightly when he heard this.
Guo Pingxian smiled bitterly and said, "Since this happened, I have been here and haven't gone anywhere. Gao Shuhan and Jiang Zhou went to contact people who could save them through their connections. They didn't have time to go back and see, and they didn't even think about going back."
Lu An was silent when he heard this. Indeed, with Guo Pingxian's temperament, it was likely that he wouldn't go anywhere. He then asked, "So, Head Guo didn't send anyone to find out who the other party was?"
Guo Pingxian knew that Lu An was asking about the people who drove them away that day. He nodded and said, "I didn't ask. This kind of thing is too common in the ocean. The other party didn't directly attack us and just let us go."
Lu An had also stayed on the ocean, so he naturally understood the cruelty of the ocean. However, the other party let them go, so he had to track down the whereabouts of the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stone. He immediately said to Guo Pingxian, "Let's go back together and see what is in the Array Core of the island."
Guo Pingxian was surprised to see Lu An so concerned. Generally speaking, people who almost died in that kind of place didn't dare to go back. It seemed that this young man's courage was greater than he thought.
But since he said that he would die for it, he naturally wouldn't refuse this kind of thing. He immediately nodded and said, "Since Young Hero Lu wants to go, we will naturally accompany you to the end!"
Soon Jiang Zhou and Gao Shuhan returned. Two days of rest had allowed them to fully recover their strength. The two of them didn't refuse, and the five people once again set off to the eight islands.

Eighty thousand miles away, the transmission array opened, and the five people appeared in the sky one after another.
However, when the five people looked around, they were stunned and then frowned.
So many people.
So many strange beasts.
In the vast sky before, there were countless humans and strange beasts. However, everyone gathered together and didn't fight with each other. After all, there was no benefit to fighting in this kind of group fight. It was meaningless. Whether it was humans or strange beasts, they came here for only one purpose, and that was these eight islands.
When Lu An looked down, he suddenly frowned and his eyes became dignified.
He saw that among the eight islands, seven were still intact, but the eighth island in the south had collapsed. The island, which was originally tens of thousands of feet long and wide and several thousand feet high above sea level, was now no more than two thousand feet high. The peaks of the two mountains had been razed to the ground, and there were huge holes everywhere. Even now, there were countless people and strange beasts on the island.
Seeing this scene, other than Lu An, the other four people were also dumbfounded. They obviously didn't expect this to happen.
"These people … What are they doing?" Gao Shuhan asked in confusion. "Looking for treasures?"
"I'm afraid that's not all." Jiang Zhou said in a deep voice, "At this point, even if there were treasures, they would have already been excavated. I'm afraid these people are studying how the island's array formation is formed. That way, they can enter the other islands first."
As soon as he said that, Guo Pingxian frowned and turned to Lu An and asked, "Young Hero Lu, what should we do?"
Lu An's eyes narrowed slightly. He took out two veil hats and put them on himself and Yang Mu. He looked at the center of the island and said, "Let's go down and take a look."
The other four nodded, and everyone immediately flew downwards. Soon, they all landed on the island.
The five people were less than ten feet away from the array formation, but at this moment, the ground around the array formation had many deep holes. Guo Pingxian and the other two kept looking left and right, but Lu An didn't even look at it. His eyes were focused on the array formation.
Finally, the four people stood at the edge of the array formation. At this moment, there were many people and strange beasts gathered around the array formation. These people were also studying it, and kept pointing inside.
Lu An stood at the edge and looked at the array formation that was hundreds of feet deep. He frowned and jumped down from the edge.
The others saw this and followed, and soon the five people fell to the bottom of the pit. The bottom of the pit was also full of people and strange beasts. Lu An walked to the most central position and looked at the empty ground and the empty walls around, and his brows became more and more tight.
He could feel that the aura of death had not completely dissipated here.
He had confirmed that it was the aura of the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stone. He was very familiar with this kind of aura after fighting with the people who had the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stone.
The Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stone had been taken away, and most likely it had fallen into the hands of the group of people they had met before. Lu An immediately turned to Guo Pingxian and said, "Brother Guo, you are more familiar with this place. I want you to help me find the information of the group of people from before, no matter the cost. I will pay for all the expenses of the investigation. If you need anything, just tell me. This matter must be done as soon as possible! "
Guo Pingxian and the other two were surprised. They didn't expect Lu An to value the things here so much. For a Tier 8 Alchemist to care so much about something, it was enough to show how valuable it was.
However, Guo Pingxian didn't have any disloyalty. With the financial support of a Alchemist like Lu An, he immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I will help you find it as soon as possible!"
Lu An nodded. There was no point in staying here any longer, and he didn't want to stay any longer. He immediately got up and prepared to leave.
However, just as Lu An was about to leave, a few tall Strange Beasts in the distance suddenly said, "Just a few humans and they want to come here looking for benefits. They are simply delusional!"
"Are you stupid? You used the wrong word!" A Strange Beast on the side laughed and said, "You should have used 'asking for humiliation'."
"You also used the wrong word. It should have been 'overestimating themselves'!" Another Strange Beast said.
Their voices were very loud, and soon it reached the ears of many Strange Beasts in the deep pit. These Strange Beasts followed the line of sight and looked at Lu An's group of five. They all let out a burst of laughter and boos.
It wasn't just the Strange Beasts. Even the three or four groups of humans in the deep pit revealed mocking smiles. These five people dared to come here looking for treasures. They were simply a disgrace to the human race.
Among the five people, Jiang Zhou's temper was the worst. Just as he was about to say something loudly, he was stopped by Gao Shuhan. He said in a low voice, "We have fewer people. If we make a move, we will be at a disadvantage. Let's just forget about it."
Guo Pingxian's face was also very gloomy. An honest person didn't mean that he wouldn't get angry. He clenched his fists, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
Yang Mu frowned and didn't move. Lu An looked at the surrounding Strange Beasts calmly. There wasn't any anger on his face. Instead, he turned his head and said to Guo Pingxian, "Let's go. This place has already been taken by someone else. There's nothing to see here. We will directly enter the second island three days later."
Lu An's voice wasn't loud, it was even very soft. The Level Seven Heavenly Masters who were far away definitely couldn't hear it. However, the people and Strange Beasts in this deep pit were very powerful. Level Eight Heavenly Masters and Level Eight Strange Beasts accounted for at least half of them. Level Seven Heavenly Masters and Level Seven Strange Beasts couldn't hear it, but he heard it clearly!
Three days later? What does that mean?!
Guo Pingxian and the other two were also clearly stunned. Guo Pingxian quickly made a 'shh' gesture to Lu An. In his opinion, Lu An's strength wasn't good enough, resulting in him not being able to control the strength of his voice. If the plan was heard by someone else … …
In fact, under the attention of the ridicule just now, Lu An's voice had already been heard by everyone and Strange Beasts.
Just when Lu An was about to leave with the four people, suddenly, a Strange Beast not far away took a step forward. In an instant, the entire deep pit trembled. Countless stones from the hundred zhang tall walls fell down, making a loud noise.
"Hey! What do you mean by three days later? "This tall Strange Beast asked loudly.
"Did I say that?" Lu An's face was flustered. He didn't admit it and said, "I didn't say anything. What are you talking about?"
"You human, stop acting crazy and playing dumb with me!" This tall Strange Beast immediately roared loudly, causing Lu An's ears to hurt. "You clearly said three days later. If you don't tell me why, I will immediately kill all of you!"
"This … …" Lu An's face was pale. Seeing all the Strange Beasts surrounding them, he could only say in fear, "Three days later is the day of the full moon. Under the full moon, the sun and the moon will exchange, and the yin and yang will combine. It will be a rare moment of balance in a hundred years. I have received information that the yin and yang of this array is constantly changing, and it is related to the sun, moon, and stars. Three days later, the second island will be weakened to the greatest extent. It will be the best time to enter. "
These Strange Beasts couldn't help but be stunned after hearing Lu An's words. They looked at each other. What sun and moon exchange, yin and yang combination, and the sun, moon, and stars, they didn't understand these at all. These were all human knowledge. Every race had a different grasp of the laws.
However, human's grasp of this kind of knowledge was definitely stronger than other races. This was also something that other races couldn't help but acknowledge. So when they heard these words that they didn't understand at all, these Strange Beasts were half confused and half confused, but in their hearts, they actually believed most of it.
Not only them, even the two or three groups of humans were the same. This person was wearing a veil hat and had a mysterious style. In addition, he said that the yin and yang of the array was related to the sun, moon, and stars. This point was indeed reasonable. It was also something that many people had thought of before. It was just that they didn't understand the specific laws.
While everyone and the Strange Beasts were pondering, Lu An's group of five didn't stay for long. They immediately flew into the sky and opened the teleportation array, disappearing into the eight islands. Soon, the five of them returned to the Drifting Moon City in Outré Prefecture and sat in the hall again.
"Young hero Lu, is what you said just now true?" Guo Pingxian didn't even sit down and hurriedly asked. Even Jiang Zhou and Gao Shuhan looked at Lu An in a daze.
Lu An took off his veil hat and looked at the three of them. He smiled and said, "It's just nonsense."
