In the Eight Ancient Continents, on an inconspicuous official road, two people were riding horses in the heavy snow. They were Han Ya and Wei Tao.
In the past few days, at least half of the cities they passed by had fallen in the flames of war. After asking around, the two finally understood what had happened.
The world was in chaos, and the world was suddenly swept by the flames of war. Although they did not understand why, even if their strength was not low, it was impossible for them to survive in such a war, so they had to escape.
At this moment, they were fleeing in the southeast direction, and their destination was South Sea City.
Yes, even the mountains were not necessarily safe now. The one they wanted to seek refuge was none other than Lu An!
Last time, they met in South Sea City. At that time, Lu An was already very strong. Maybe Lu An was still in South Sea City. Han Ya thought that Lu An must have a way to protect them.
Han Ya took the initiative to suggest to Wei Tao that they go to South Sea City to find Lu An. Wei Tao knew that Han Ya had feelings for Lu An. Han Ya loved him, but she had a special sense of dependence on Lu An. This could not be helped. After all, every time something happened to Han Ya, it was Lu An who risked his life to stay by her side. Wei Tao did not mind too much. What's more, for Han Ya's safety, these things were not worth fussing over.
"It will take a long time to get to South Sea City from here." Wei Tao said loudly, "Even if we rush day and night, it will take at least half a month."
Han Ya nodded. As long as they could survive this half a month, she believed that everything would be over.

Four Southern Seas, Icefire Island.
After Xu Wei left, only Liu Yi and Princess Yan Yi were left in the hall. Without waiting for Yan Yi to say anything, Liu Yi turned to Princess Yan Yi and said, "I'm sorry, I took advantage of his feelings for you."
"… …"
Princess Yan Yi was startled and lowered her head. She wanted to talk about this matter. Although she didn't have any romantic feelings for Xu Wei, she still saw how well Xu Wei treated her. What Liu Yi said just now was as if she was threatening Xu Wei with her safety, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
Taking advantage of other people's feelings was a very dirty thing to do.
Liu Yi also knew that with Princess Yan Yi's character, she was very concerned about these things, but as a decision-maker, she was very thirsty for information about the entire continent. She originally would not let Princess Yan Yi go out to fight with others, but since Xu Wei was willing to deliver it to her, she would definitely want it.
With this kind of information, the Ice and Fire League could save a lot of trouble and people from dying. To Liu Yi, this deal couldn't be more worth it!
"The next time he comes, find a chance to talk to him alone. Tell him that I'm the one who used him, not you." Liu Yi said, "What I need is just information. As long as he is willing to continue providing us with information, I can take out a lot of treasures in exchange for it."
Looking at Liu Yi, Princess Yan Yi actually knew what kind of person Liu Yi was. Liu Yi had no relatives. She only had Lu An in her heart, so she had no scruples in doing things. As long as she treated Lu An well, she could even do all kinds of bad things.
"I know." Princess Yan Yi gently nodded and didn't say anything else.
Time passed little by little. The entire Ice and Fire League was very busy every day. Liu Yi and Princess Yan Yi stayed in the same room almost every day. The two of them didn't rest or sleep, sorting out information, discussing matters, and jointly making decisions. Princess Yan Yi was, after all, the princess of Southern Cloud Empire. She had a very high perspective on many wars and could accurately see things from the perspective of the sect. Therefore, her predictions of the sect's actions were usually very accurate.
On the other side, Lu An continued to cultivate in the whirlpool at the bottom of the sea. Every day, Prince Qi went to see him and was even a little tired. Originally, Prince Qi was very shocked that Lu An could hold on for so long without any changes. But as time passed, Prince Qi became numb. She even felt that if Lu An could continue to sit like this, her daily visits were completely unnecessary.
The chaos in the world was constantly intensifying. Facts proved that the chaos on the first day of the new year was really just a small beginning. The fighting now far exceeded the situation on the first day. With so many sects fighting for territories, and with the addition of the Deep Sea Alliance, every force wanted to obtain more resources as quickly as possible. And the faster they fought, the more ruthless they would be.
Wherever the people of the sects went, they didn't say anything and directly destroyed a few important cities. The people in the country were plunged into misery and suffering. They beat the people in the country until they were scared. Then, they directly entered the capital and captured all the members of the royal family and executed them on the street, including the nobles and ministers. They quickly supported those who were willing to serve them to become the new ministers and sent people from the sects to become the kings.
It was extremely fast. Almost one-sixth of the countries in the entire Eight Ancient Continent were covered by this war. These countries were all rich in resources. The Eight Ancient Continent was really too big. Even if all the people of the sects moved out, they couldn't occupy too many places. They only occupied the most important areas, which were under their direct control. As for the other territories, they would have to slowly fight for them later. Even if they conquered them, they wouldn't manage them personally. They would just let the countries become their subordinates.
However, although the sects and the Deep Sea Alliance only swept one-fourth of the countries, the other countries were also affected by the chaos. Many hidden experts and bandits rebelled and used this tide to overthrow the governments of the countries. At least half of the countries in the world fell into a huge riot. For a time, the people couldn't make a living. Corpses were everywhere, and blood soaked the earth. The population sharply decreased.
At this moment, more than one hundred countries under the control of the Ice Fire Alliance knew how lucky they were. They originally wanted to resist the rule of the Ice Fire Alliance, but now they surrendered and even begged the Ice Fire Alliance not to leave, which led to them being engulfed in the flames of war. However, the Ice Fire Alliance wasn't just a backer for these people. All the Heaven Masters above Level Six in the Holy Lands had to join the Ice Fire Alliance and be managed by the Ice Fire Alliance. Otherwise, they would be killed without mercy.
After occupying these countries, the Ice Fire Alliance didn't hurry to expand. Instead, they just watched the chaos of the entire continent. From this huge chaos, Liu Yi could get a lot of information, such as the real alliances and hostile relationships between the sects, and which sects had deep grudges against the Deep Sea Alliance. These were all valuable things that she could use.
However, no matter how powerful Liu Yi was, she could only speculate a part of the situation in the world. There were more things that Liu Yi couldn't see through, including the conspiracy against the Ice Fire Alliance.
Seven days later, it was the thirteenth day of the first lunar month.
Thousand Light Sect, Eight Ancient Continents.
At this moment, many people were gathering in the Sect Master's Hall of the Thousand Light Sect. Song Tianhua, the Sect Master of the Thousand Light Sect, was sitting high on the throne. The others were standing in the hall, reporting to him a lot of information.
Among the four great empires, the Heavenly Dragon Empire was occupied by the Thousand Light Sect and its allies. They had occupied more than two hundred countries in the Eight Ancient Continents, and all of them were rich middle-level countries. The Thousand Light Sect's strength was definitely above the middle-level among the sects. Everything was within Song Tianhua's expectation.
At this moment, the seven core members of the Thousand Light Sect were all present. Besides the Sect Master Song Tianhua, there were two Vice Sect Masters and four Elders. They were the Great Elder of the Heaven's Sect, the Great Elder of the Earthchild Sect, the Great Elder of the Punishment Hall, and the Great Elder of the Scripture Depository Pavilion. Among them, the Great Elder of the Heaven's Sect, Liao Ao, had brought people to the Ice Fire Alliance to ask for people. The Great Elder of the Earthchild Sect was Xu Yunyan and Xu Yunlian's mother, Xu Lin.
The seven of them were all present, listening to the Elders reporting about the situation in the continent. After an Elder finished reporting, the next Elder said, "Sect Master, I've found the information about the Ice Fire Alliance in the Eight Ancient Continents."
As soon as he said this, the seven core members present trembled. Although the Ice Fire Alliance was weak, its existence was absolutely not something that any sect could ignore. More importantly, the Thousand Light Sect had a piece of information that the other sects didn't know. That was, the Ice Fire Alliance had a Level Nine Heaven Master!
The Level Nine Heaven Master in their hearts was the woman who had followed Liao Ao to the Ice Fire Alliance and injured their disciples — Yuerong.
Not only that, the Ice Fire Alliance also had the two daughters of Song Tianhua and Xu Yunyan. Although Song Tianhua had many children, Xu Yunyan and Xu Yunlian were the most talented. No matter what, he had to catch these two daughters and bring them back.
"Speak!" Song Tianhua immediately said, "What did they do?"
"Sect Master, we found that the Ice Fire Alliance has occupied six countries. However, their actions were very secretive and they didn't abolish the royal families of these countries." The Elder immediately said, "The one in charge of managing these six countries is Ceng Ping of the Ice Fire Alliance. She's an important person in the Ice Fire Alliance."
"Ceng Ping …" Song Tianhua's expression was cold. He naturally didn't know who this person was. However, it didn't matter to him who she was. As long as she was important to the Ice Fire Alliance, it was enough.
"Sect Master." Liao Ao looked at Song Tianhua and asked, "I'm going to take people and kill them all now to relieve the hatred in my heart."
"No!" Song Tianhua raised his hand and said in a deep voice, "It's just Ceng Ping. Killing her won't do us any good. If we want to do it, we have to do it big!"
Liao Ao was stunned and asked, "Sect Master, you mean …"
Song Tianhua sneered and said, "No matter what, I have to take this opportunity to force the Ice Fire Alliance to hand over my two daughters!"
