After putting everything into the ring, Lu An set up a teleportation array and left safely.
When he returned to Ice Fire Island, the four rescued people had already returned. Liu Yi stood in front of the teleportation array and waited for him. She heaved a sigh of relief when she saw him return.
Lu An walked in front of Liu Yi and said, "Quickly send someone to inform Brother Bian to come back."
"I have already sent someone," Liu Yi said.
"That's good." Lu An nodded. There was no need for Bian Qingliu to continue attracting people. Once the people from the Holy Ocean Alliance found out that Bian Qingliu had been taken away, it was very likely that Bian Qingliu would be implicated.
Sure enough, Bian Qingliu returned in less than half an hour. Now, everyone from the Ice Fire Alliance had returned. Just as Lu An was about to take out the things in the ring and show them to Liu Yi, another teleportation array suddenly opened.
Everyone turned to look and saw that the person who walked out was none other than the fat manager of the Holy Ocean Alliance!
In order to maintain the business of the Lone Moon Alliance, Liu Yi did not let people destroy the original teleportation hall of Lone Moon Island. People of a higher realm could sense the teleportation arrays set up by lower realm Heavenly Masters. They could also destroy them. This fat manager had obviously been to Lone Moon Island before, which was why he could come here directly.
Lu An saw the fat manager. If this person appeared …
"Something happened!" The fat manager exclaimed. However, when he saw Lu An standing in front of him, he was shocked and said in disbelief, "You … you really escaped!"
"The people from the Holy Ocean Alliance found out that we escaped?" Lu An frowned and asked.
"That's right!" The fat manager quickly nodded and said, "Now, the entire Holy Ocean Island group is looking for you. Moreover, the Great Elder of Execution Island is very angry. It's as if he wants to kill someone!"
Execution Island?
Lu An laughed in his heart. It seemed that they had found out that he had lost his things.
Liu Yi sized up the fat man in front of her and asked, "Is this the manager of the trading company who is working as a spy in the Holy Ocean Alliance?"
The fat manager quickly nodded. He didn't know Liu Yi. Seeing that Lu An and Liu Yi were talking like husband and wife, he quickly said, "Greetings, Mrs. Lu!"
Mrs. Lu?
Liu Yi was stunned when she heard this. Then, she smiled and said, "You have a sweet mouth."
Lu An bitterly smiled and said to the fat manager, "This is the deputy leader of the Ice and Fire Alliance, Liu Yi. By the way, what's your name? "
"My name is Guan Peng, but those who are familiar with me can just call me Fatty," the fat manager quickly said.
Lu An nodded and said to Liu Yi, "I agree that he should join the Ice Fire Alliance. It's up to you to decide whether to give him a position or make him an ordinary member."
Join the Ice and Fire Union?
Liu Yi looked at Guan Peng and frowned slightly. She said, "I'll consider your position."
Seeing that Liu Yi was not very interested, Guan Peng's heart tightened. He quickly said, "In order to show my sincerity, I'm willing to tell you all the business dealings of the Holy Ocean Alliance. As long as I'm here, I promise that the Ice and Fire Alliance can take at least half of the business!"
"Hmm?" Liu Yi raised her eyebrows. Her eyes finally brightened. She said, "That's a good suggestion."
Then, Liu Yi sent someone to call Xu Yunyan. The trading company of the Ice and Fire Alliance had always been managed by the two sisters, Xu Yunyan and Xu Yunlian. Although Xu Yunyan was not a member of the family, Liu Yi could trust her after experiencing those things.
After Xu Yunyan arrived, Liu Yi told her about Guan Peng. Xu Yunyan immediately understood Liu Yi's meaning and said, "Don't worry, I'll definitely make the Holy Ocean Alliance feel the pain."
"By the way, I also brought back a lot of things from the Holy Ocean Alliance." Lu An said to Liu Yi and Xu Yunyan, "It's a unique space under the prison. It's exactly the same as the coffin of the Sky Thief that day. I'm guessing that the Sky Thief stole this space ability book from the Holy Ocean Alliance."
With that, Lu An took out all the things he had brought back from the ring. There were just enough things to pile up to the height of an adult. However, when Liu Yi opened the brocade box, the value of the things inside surprised even Liu Yi.
"This … is the collection of the Great Elder of the Execution Island!" Guan Peng sucked in a breath of cold air. He didn't expect Lu An to steal these things back. His whole body was trembling as he said, "Others might not understand, but I know the Great Elder's personality very well. He is an extremely greedy person! Every month, he wants me to make fake accounts and sneak some things out for him. He also hides a portion of the things we bring back from missions. His collection can be considered half a warehouse! "
Lu An frowned. The Great Elder of the Execution Island was a very important position. For such a high ranking person to become a thief, it seemed that the Holy Ocean Alliance was rotten to the core.
After Liu Yi roughly looked through the goods, she handed them all to Xu Yunyan. However, she did not arrange any position for Guan Peng. She only made him an ordinary member of the Fire Island for the time being.
After everyone left, only Lu An and Liu Yi remained. The two returned to the palace and sat down. Liu Yi personally poured tea for Lu An. She looked at Lu An with her beautiful eyes and said, "Now you know why I gave all the core positions in the Ice Fire Alliance to my own people, right?"
Lu An's body trembled and he nodded.
The general manager of the trading company betrayed them and the Great Elder of the Execution Island embezzled. If more of these things happened, the entire Holy Ocean Alliance would collapse.
"How do you want to deal with Guan Peng?" Lu An asked.
"…" Liu Yi looked at Lu An and said seriously, "If I deal with it too ruthlessly, will you be afraid of me?"
"No." Lu An shook his head and said with certainty, "I know you won't harm me."
Liu Yi revealed a beautiful smile and said, "Actually, you instigated the general manager of the Holy Ocean Alliance to betray them. This matter is somewhat shady and will cause the other alliances to worry. After all, you are the champion of the Alchemist Conference. It is too easy for you to use pills to instigate a rebellion. If this matter is not handled properly, our Ice Fire Alliance will be isolated. "
Lu An's heart tightened when he heard this. He had never thought about this. Sure enough, he was too careless. He quickly asked, "Then what should we do?"
"We can't let Guan Peng stay." Liu Yi's eyes narrowed and said seriously, "Even if he doesn't die, we can't let him stay in the Ice Fire Alliance. If we let Guan Peng stay, the surrounding alliances will be even more worried. At the same time, we have to fabricate a reason that Guan Peng has a blood feud with the Holy Ocean Alliance. Only then will it be logical. As for the pills, we can't mention a single word about it! "
Hearing Liu Yi's words, Lu An hesitated and said, "But I have already promised Guan Peng to let him stay in the Ice Fire Alliance."
"I'll get Xu Yunyan to talk to him. I'll still give him the pill, and I'll even give him more benefits. After all, the things you brought back are worth far more than a single pill. We won't lose anything by giving him more," said Liu Yi. "If he really refuses to leave, I'll have no choice but to kill him."
"…"
Lu An frowned and finally nodded. "You decide."
Liu Yi nodded slightly and said, "The Holy Ocean Alliance will definitely not let this matter go, but it will also give us a chance to make an example out of him. I will speed up and hold the meeting within seven days. At that time, the Holy Ocean Alliance will definitely come uninvited. We can also settle this with him. "
"Okay." Lu An nodded and said worriedly, "Arrange it carefully. It must be foolproof."
"Don't worry!" Liu Yi said with a smile.

Lu An left the Ice Fire Island and returned to the Immortal Island. Yao left with him.
Going to the Holy Ocean Alliance to save people was just an accident in Lu An's cultivation. Lu An's original plan was to go to Sengoku to learn more immortal techniques. When Yao heard that Lu An was preparing to cultivate immortal techniques, she was naturally very happy. The Death Energy in Lu An's body had always been her concern. When she saw that Lu An had taken the initiative to cultivate immortal techniques, she knew that Lu An had not forgotten her words.
Although Yao had already mastered many immortal techniques, they were still far from the Sutra Depository. The two of them directly opened the Gate of the Immortal World and returned to Sengoku.
When Yuan and Jun heard that Lu An wanted to cultivate immortal techniques, they naturally did not stop him. Now, Lu An's position in their hearts was completely different from when they first arrived. The Sutra Depository's door was completely open. They had even given the Immortal Techniques to Lu An, so the other immortal techniques were not worth hiding.
Just like the first time he came to the Sutra Depository, Lu An began to check the bookshelves bit by bit. He looked at the names of each immortal technique and took out a few pages of each book. Now that he had limited time to cultivate, he could not waste time on powers that were not suitable for him. He had to make sure that every power was compatible with him.
Yao was also helping Lu An look. Just as Lu An finished reading the first bookshelf and was about to look at the second bookshelf, Yao suddenly came to Lu An's side and placed a book in front of Lu An.
"What do you think of it?" Yao asked seriously.
Lu An looked and saw four big words written on the book.
Immortal Essence Technique.
