Lu An didn't stay long after setting up the Teleportation Formation at Prince Qi's residence.
Eight Ancient Continent, Ice and Fire City.
It was still early. It was just past noon, and the sun was shining brightly. Lu An went straight to Liu Yi when he came back. Yao and Beauty Yang were also there. He told them about what had happened, including the matter of going to Sky Tiger Island.
When the three women heard about the Watercloud Clan, they were a little confused. Even Yao had never heard of this clan. It couldn't be helped. Sengoku had basically lost contact with the ocean thousands of years ago. They were imprisoned by the Hachiko clan on the continent and couldn't leave. When the three women heard about the arena, they were a little worried. However, they also knew that it was impossible to persuade Lu An not to participate.
To be honest, compared to letting Lu An fight on the arena and letting Lu An cultivate on his own, they preferred the former. After all, Lu An's number was limited, and his strength was controllable. If they let Lu An cultivate on his own, they didn't know what kind of trouble he would cause.
The three women didn't object to Lu An fighting on the arena. At this moment, a figure suddenly flew into the pavilion from the sky. It was none other than Kong Yan.
After Kong Yan entered, she quickly said, "Karmic Fire Sect sent someone here!"
Karmic Fire Sect?
Immediately, the four people in the room frowned. Even Liu Yi was the same. Karmic Fire Sect suddenly sending someone here was beyond her expectations.
"Is it because of the Guang You Sect?" Beauty Yang said, "Did they find some clues?"
"I don't know." Liu Yi was also worried about this. She immediately stood up and said, "I'll go take a look!"
"I'll go with you." Lu An also stood up and said.
Immediately, Lu An, Liu Yi, and Kong Yan left. Yao and Beauty Yang stayed behind to wait for news.

In a pavilion in the City Lord's Residence that was specially used for receiving envoys, the core elder of the Karma Fire Sect, Du Kong, was sitting upright in the room. His eyes were tightly shut, and the prayer beads in his hands were spinning non-stop as if he was silently reciting scriptures.
Not long after, the door on the side of the house opened, and two people walked in. They were Lu An and Liu Yi.
The prayer beads in Du Kong's hand stopped moving. He opened his eyes and stood up to salute the two people politely. "Greetings, Chief Lu and Madam Lu."
Of course, Lu An and Du Kong knew each other. Although there had been some unpleasantness in the Hellfire Sect, it was not to the extent that the Ice Fire Union and the Hellfire Sect had become hostile. Lu An cupped his hands politely and said, "Master Du Kong, please sit."
Both parties sat down, and the maids served them tea. Lu An spat lightly and put it down. Without any unnecessary greetings, he went straight to the point, "Master Dukong, what can I do for you this time?"
"I don't dare to give advice." Du Kong's expression and words had always been orthodox. He said, "I'm just following orders to pass on a message."
"Oh?" Lu An smiled and said, "Master, whose message are you delivering?"
"My sect master, Holy Monk Jue Nian's words …" Du Kong's voice was extremely forceful as he spoke.
Jue Nian?
Lu An and Liu Yi's hearts tightened. They naturally knew that Jue Nian was the sect master of the Hellfire Sect. Furthermore, he was either the deputy sect master or the sect master!
"I have never seen the Holy Monk before. I didn't expect him to have a message for me. May I know what it is?" Lu An asked.
"There are evil people causing trouble in the First Beihai Sea," Du Kong said in a deep voice. "The people in the 600,000-kilometer coastal area are in a terrible situation, and blood is flowing like a river. My Hellfire Sect will coordinate and work with the other six sects to kill the evil people. The sect master would like to invite the Ice Fire Union to help the people of the world. "
Evil people?
Lu An and Liu Yi's eyes flickered. It was difficult to determine the identity of the enemy just by looking at an 'evil person'. No matter how they thought about it, this matter was very strange. Liu Yi said directly, "With the six sects taking action, do you still need the help of a small Ice Fire Union?"
"There's no such thing as too many people," Du Kong said. "Moreover, Alliance Master Lu is Sengoku's son-in-law. Sengoku has always been responsible for eliminating evil people. I'm sure Alliance Master Lu won't ignore it, right?"
"If it's evil people, I will naturally do my best." Lu An paused for a moment before he said, "However, the Otherworldly Evils mentioned in the Immortal Domain are very different from villains. I wonder what exactly the villains we're targeting this time are?"
Du Kong's eyes were obviously hesitant when he heard this. However, after thinking for a while, he said, "It's a force that can control people's minds."
Controlling people's minds?
Lu An's eyes narrowed. If that was the case, it was indeed one of the 'evil people' that Sengoku mentioned.
"Master, please elaborate," Lu An said.
"In the 600,000-kilometer coastal area, most of the destruction of the cities is due to internal strife." Du Kong said in a deep voice, "Whether it's the civilians or the local Heavenly Masters, they all kill each other. Even husband and wife turn against each other and kill each other."
Lu An and Liu Yi were shocked when they heard this!
This incident immediately reminded them of something — the Bloody Mountain Lunar Red Stone!
Lu An's long period of cultivation and incidents had caused him to temporarily put the Bloody Mountain Lunar Red Stone in the depths of his sea of consciousness. He had not remembered it for a long time. However, he had dealt with the Bloody Mountain Lunar Red Stone several times. Even if there was a slight possibility of a connection, it would immediately alert him!
Lu An couldn't think of any other possibility other than the Bloody Mountain and the Moon Red Stone that could cause a massacre within a radius of six hundred thousand li!
Immediately, Lu An made up his mind to go. No matter what, he would not forget Sengoku's mission. He must retrieve the Bloody Mountain Lunar Red Stone and place it in Sengoku's palace in the sea.
However, Lu An did not show too intense or abnormal behavior. Instead, he pretended to think for a moment before nodding slightly and said, "When do we depart?"
"10th of July," Du Kong said directly, "We'll depart at 7 a.m. sharp."
Lu An nodded and said, "Okay, I'll be there on time."
"Alliance head Lu is indeed kind-hearted." Du Kong stood up, bowed towards Lu An and said, "Since that's the case, I'll be waiting for alliance head Lu's arrival four days later."
After speaking, Du Kong did not linger and directly turned to leave the pavilion.
After Du Kong left, Lu An's eyebrows became tighter and tighter. Liu Yi was the same too.
Immediately, the two returned to the pavilion and informed Yao and Beauty Yang about this matter. As expected, the two women immediately thought of the Bloody Mountain Lunar Red Stone. Yao immediately said, "I'll go too!"
Lu An looked at Yao, his eyebrows tightly knitted. To be honest, Yao's current strength was much higher than his. Even if she went, she would have more ability to protect herself. However, for some reason, Lu An did not want her to go.
Danger.
Lu An had a faint feeling in his heart. This mission would be very dangerous, even far more dangerous than he imagined!
More importantly, Lu An could not distinguish whether this sense of danger came from the evil forces in the coastal area or from other places. Liu Yi had the same idea as him. She had always been suspicious of the purpose of Karma Fire Sect's visit today.
Why?
Why did they have to find the Ice Fire Union?
Last time, Lu An and Karma Fire Sect did not have a good relationship. However, Karma Fire Sect suddenly came to find them because of this matter. No matter what, it gave people a feeling that they had bad intentions. It was even … killing with a borrowed knife!
"I want to go by myself." Lu An frowned and said in a deep voice.
Yao was startled and quickly said, "But this matter is related to the Bloody Mountain Lunar Red Stone. If it really exists, how is husband going to snatch it from the hands of the six sects?"
Beauty Yang was slightly startled and looked at Yao with some astonishment. Yao also immediately realized that she had said something wrong. The words she said in a hurry did not give Lu An any face.
Of course, Lu An did not care about this at all. He looked at Yao and said seriously, "Listen to me. I'll go check out the situation first. If I'm sure there's no special danger, I'll come back to pick you up. It won't waste much time."
Just when Yao was about to say something anxiously, Liu Yi also spoke. She looked at Yao and said, "I also agree with husband's words."
Yao was startled, and looked at Liu Yi anxiously.
"Carrying out a mission is not something that can be completed with just strength." Liu Yi said seriously, "Although your strength is high, you don't know how to deceive others and can't deal with danger. Even if Karma Fire Sect doesn't have any other intentions, if you use your methods to snatch the Bloody Mountain Lunar Red Stone from everyone's hands, we will directly offend the six sects. Let Lu An handle this matter first. If the time is right, I guarantee that I'll let you take action. "
Since Liu Yi had already put it this way, there was no way Yao could fight for anything else. She could only seriously say, "To the Immortal Domain, the Bloody Mountain's Crimson Moon Stone is the most important mission. I do not wish for any piece to fall into the hands of others."
"I understand." Liu Yi nodded and said, "Don't worry."
