Lu An narrated the resurrection of the Black Bear King and the conversation that happened just now. The girls didn't expect that the Qi King and the Black Bear King would have a conflict, but fortunately, they didn't fight. When the girls heard the Black Bear King's last request, their expressions became serious.
Obviously, the Black Bear King's request would become an important mission for the Ice Fire Union in the future.
"Is there any news about the Black Bear Tribe in Sengoku?" Lu An looked at Yao and asked.
"No." Yao shook her head and said softly, "Last time, father and mother said that the Black Bear Tribe was extinct ten thousand years ago. They don't know if there's a troop left behind."
Beauty Yang also said, "The Black Bear Tribe's population isn't large. The troop left behind is probably very small. That year, the Hachiko Clan was able to force all the strong tribes to flee to the ocean. This means that their methods were very cruel. Also, they searched very carefully. Maybe the troop left behind was already killed. "
"That's right." Yang Mu nodded and said, "Even if they were lucky enough to survive, it's a serious problem whether they can survive after ten thousand years. Compared to being alive, the possibility of being dead is higher. "
That's right. Without a doubt, everyone predicted that the Black Bear Tribe was extinct. Otherwise, the news would have spread long ago. Searching would be a waste of time and energy.
"We still have to search. We can only assume that the Black Bear Tribe still exists." Liu Yi said. She took a deep breath and said seriously, "If the Black Bear Tribe really exists, and there hasn't been any news about them for ten thousand years, it means that they're hiding very deeply. Following this train of thought, where could they be hiding? "
Deep in the mountains?
This was basically impossible. Even if it was deep in the mountains, it should have been discovered after ten thousand years. The Hachiko clan and the thirty-one sects would definitely not let go of any place.
"Inside the mountains." Kong Yan said, "And underground."
Hearing this, all the girls nodded. They had the same thought. If it was in a very high mountain range, the Black Bear Tribe could indeed hide inside a hollowed out mountain. Or they could hide underground, just like the Celestial Azure Yu Snake that had been dormant for five thousand years. The underground space was much wider and harder to find.
However, if they were really hiding inside the mountains or underground, it would be really hard to find. The Ice Fire Union couldn't turn the entire Eight Ancient Continents upside down. No one had that ability.
"There are two more places," Liu Yi suddenly said.
All the girls were stunned, including Lu An, and asked, "Where?"
"The Hachiko clan." Liu Yi looked at her husband and said seriously, "And the 31 sects."
The girls were shocked, and Lu An's eyes turned cold as he asked, "What do you mean? Are you saying that someone captured the Black Bear Tribe and raised them in captivity? "
"That's right. It's not impossible." Liu Yi said, "The Hachiko clan is the most likely. They definitely have the ability to hide a clan for tens of thousands of years."
"No." Yao suddenly spoke up. "It's definitely not the Hachiko clan."
Liu Yi was slightly startled as she turned to look at Yao. Her understanding of the Hachiko clan was far inferior to Yao's, and she asked, "Why?"
"The Hachiko clan is really arrogant. They never use other forces because they think that other forces aren't good enough for them." Yao said, "Including the Hachiko clan's weapons and pellets, they are only related to heaven and earth treasures. None of them are related to strange beasts. Moreover, it's impossible for them to raise strange beasts to help them."
Hearing this, Liu Yi pondered seriously and said, "If that's the case, then the sect is the most suspicious. Under the protection or restraint of the sects, the Black Bear Tribe, which has a small population, could be completely covered. It's not realistic to search the entire Eight Ancient Continents. We should start with the sects. Whether it's to check if the sects have the Black Bear Tribe, or if the sects can collect information from the entire continent, it's much faster than us searching blindly. "
"If the sects have hidden the Black Bear Tribe, we need to think about which sects would do that. Moreover, it could be some sects with a long history," continued Liu Yi.
"Heavenly Wonder Sect?" Liu Lan suddenly asked.
Hearing the three words' Heavenly Strange Sect, 'everybody in the room was shocked.
That's right. The Heavenly Strange Sect was the biggest suspect!
As the only sect among the thirty-one sects that specialized in taming and studying strange beasts, the Heavenly Strange Sect was much more likely than the other sects. Now that he thought about it, when they were fighting for the Regenerative Crystal Core, the Heavenly Strange Sect actually sent out their 'Thunder Dome' instead of trading with the Mystical Beasts in the deep sea. This showed how determined they were to get it!
Could it be that they already knew it was the Black Bear Tribe?
Or … Because they had the Black Bear Tribe in their secret captivity, they wanted the Black Bear King so much?
However, without any evidence, everything was just speculation. They wouldn't take the initiative to ask. Without a doubt, the Heavenly Strange Sect was the biggest suspect. Even if they didn't, the Heavenly Strange Sect must have collected the most complete information about strange beasts. Perhaps they could get some information from them.
After pondering, Liu Yi took a deep breath and turned to Lu An. "Husband, I think we need to … visit the Heavenly Strange Sect!"
Lu An was bewildered. He immediately asked, "What do you mean?"
"Many sects sent invitations to invite you and me, but I rejected most of them. The Heavenly Strange Sect was one of them. " Liu Yi said, "We just visited the Yin Yang Divine Sect, the Six Paths Sect, and the Misty Rain Sect. Even if we go to the Heavenly Strange Sect, they won't be suspicious. We can take the opportunity to ask around. Maybe we can get some information."
Hearing this, everyone immediately thought about it. This was indeed a good opportunity. If they investigated the Heavenly Strange Sect outside, they might be discovered by the Heavenly Strange Sect. If they didn't find anything, they might be alerted instead. It was better to take the opportunity to go to the Heavenly Strange Sect. With Liu Yi's wit, they might be able to get some information.
"Okay." Lu An nodded and said, "Then we'll listen to you. Let's go to the Heavenly Strange Sect!"
"Okay." Liu Yi turned to Shuang 'er and said, "Shuang' er, communicate with the Heavenly Strange Sect and set a time as soon as possible."
"Okay!" Shuang 'er immediately nodded and said.

Twelve hours later, at noon.
In the morning, Shuang 'er first sent someone to communicate with the Heavenly Strange Sect. They were very excited when they heard that the Ice Fire Alliance had accepted the invitation and immediately agreed to hold the banquet as soon as possible. After the person she sent returned, Shuang 'er personally went to the Heavenly Strange Sect to set a time for the banquet.
The banquet was set for the day after tomorrow. The Heavenly Strange Sect had a long history and a lot of experience in hosting banquets. There was no need to plan anything.
After the Heavenly Strange Sect agreed, Liu Yi gathered her think tank for a meeting. This time, there would be a big change in the people going to the Heavenly Strange Sect. Instead of the previous elders, everyone in the think tank would go. There was no doubt that the people in the think tank were very smart and good at communication. Liu Yi might not be able to get anything out of them alone. However, if so many people worked together, they might be able to get something out of the core elders of the Heavenly Strange Sect.
At this moment, in the Southernmost Sea Region, Heavenly Tiger Island.
Lu An came here again and stood inside the mountain. King Qi was also here. Of course, the Black Bear King was also here.
After twelve hours of rest, it was obvious that the Black Bear King's body had recovered a lot. One had to admit that the recovery and self-healing abilities of the top mystical beasts were terrifying. The wounds on the Black Bear King's head and chest had almost completely healed. Even its fur was almost growing out.
Of course, in addition to the Black Bear King's powerful self-healing abilities, King Qi also didn't treat it unfairly. He gave it a lot of natural treasures to eat. At this moment, a small mountain of trash was piled up on one side of the cave. It was all leftover fruit peels and bones from the Black Bear King.
King Qi frowned and looked at the Black Bear King. "Clean this place up yourself. If there's even a little bit left behind, I'll beat you up!"
"…"
Lu An looked at King Qi in astonishment, then at the Black Bear King. What surprised him was that the Black Bear King didn't reply.
Could it be that … living under someone else's roof … really tasted good?!
The Black Bear King could now move. Although it couldn't move vigorously, it could at least move slowly. At this rate of recovery, it wouldn't take long for its body to fully recover.
"How many days will it take to fully recover?" Lu An asked King Qi.
"Two days." King Qi frowned and looked at the Black Bear King with disdain. "After it recovers, hurry up and take it away. Don't pollute my territory!"
