In the next seven days, the news spread crazily in the Four Great Empires.
It was worth mentioning that even after the rearrangement of the camps, the Four Great Empires didn't have much trouble. To the thirty-one sects, they needed a place to gather information, and the Four Great Empires were the best places. Essentially, the Four Great Empires didn't have anything that the thirty-one sects wanted. Thus, until now, besides the time when the world was in chaos and the royal family was killed, the civilians were peaceful.
In the next seven days, the news about the Lu family of the Ice and Fire Union was everywhere. Whether it was the hearsay or the secret gossip, the news about the whereabouts of the Lu family was spread everywhere. However, the news wasn't the same. Quite the contrary, it was very messy.
Some said that the Lu family was hiding in the sea. Some said that they were hiding in the allied sects. Some said that they were hiding in the Yin Yang Divine Sect. Some said that they were hiding in some remote mountain or forest. At the same time, some said that the Lu family was in the Outré Prefecture. Some said that the Lu family had never been to the Ice and Fire City.
Of course, a part of the fake news was spread by the Ice and Fire Union. However, most of it was made up by the civilians who thought it was funny. Some said that the Lu family was in their hometown. Even the name sounded weird.
The news spread everywhere, which was very painful for the spies of the sects. They had to collect every kind of news and report it accurately. After reporting it, the sects would send people to check and verify the authenticity of each piece of news. With so many pieces of news spreading everywhere, one could imagine how much work it was. Moreover, they couldn't just take a look. They had to leave someone to watch over the news for a while. Thus, all the sects had to spend a lot of energy.
Anyway, all the sects wanted to know where the Lu family was, let alone the Guang You Sect, who had declared war on them. In the past seven days, the four sects had to check the news one by one. They had to send out many Elders. To maintain the number of Elders, they had to send out disciples to carry out missions. However, until now, they hadn't found anything. Everything was just a rumor!
Eight Ancient Continent, Guang You Sect's headquarters.
Boom!
Su Ke Ming's face grimaced. He slammed the table. A murderous light flashed in his eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, "Cunning!"
They had just sent back a message confirming that the news about the Lu Clan in Ice and Fire City was false. The damned Ice and Fire Union actually sent people to wear clothes that were very similar to Lu An and the seven women's clothes to walk around the Ice and Fire City in order to pass off the fake as the real thing. It took a lot of effort to determine the truth of this matter, but in the end, this was the result!
Fortunately, their own Level Nine Heavenly Masters did not act rashly. Otherwise, it was very likely that they would fall into the enemy's Level Nine Heavenly Masters' trap! This Ice Fire Alliance, this Lu An, and this Liu Yi were more cunning than any opponents he had ever met!
On the side, Core Elder Liu Tang's expression was quite unsightly, but he still said, "Sect Leader, there's simply too much information. What should we do now? The three allied clans are also having headaches and are asking for our advice. "
Su Ke Ming took a deep breath and calmed his anger. He looked at Liu Tang and said, "There are only two possibilities for the enemy to do this. The first is to distract us, and the second is that their information has really been leaked. Therefore, they are trying to cover it up, which is why they suddenly made such a big commotion. We can't give up the investigation easily. At least, we have to persist for a while. Since the enemy wants us to be busy, we can't let them watch the show so calmly! "
Liu Tang was stunned and asked, "Sect Leader, do you mean … we should attack the Ice Fire Alliance first?"
"Yes, we should attack first. But why should we attack the Ice Fire Alliance?" Su Ke Ming sneered and said, "Since the Ice Fire Alliance has allied with the other clans, the effect will be the same no matter who we attack. The Ice Fire Alliance has the protection of the array, so it's hard to find any flaws if they hide themselves. However, the other four clans are not so cautious. "
Then, Su Ke Ming looked at Liu Tang and said, "I remember that something happened to Li Qingyue, the Core Elder of the Flower Moon Sect, right?"
Liu Tang was stunned and immediately realized what the Sect Leader was talking about. He said, "Something happened, and it was very big at that time. Even the Flower Moon Sect's Sect Leader, Li Tang, was alarmed."
"That's good." Su Ke Ming said, "All Level Nine Heavenly Masters will clear themselves of everything, but Level Eight Heavenly Masters don't have this ability. You know what to do."
"Yes!" Liu Tang immediately said, "I'll do it right away!"

At the same time, in a remote area of the Eight Ancient Continents.
This was a grassland located at the border of a small country. However, although it was called a grassland, the grass here wasn't lush. Therefore, there weren't any nomads living here.
In such a place, beside a river in the forest, there were a few wooden houses. It was hard to imagine what kind of people would live here. There were no fruit trees in the forest and no fish in the river. There was no food source at all.
Therefore, when the two Elders of the Guang You Sect came to the forest and discovered these wooden houses while hiding in the dark, their eyes instantly lit up!
With such a sudden appearance of these wooden houses, it was very likely that the two of them had obtained the correct information and found the right place. As long as they reported back, they would receive a great reward!
The two of them were still rational. They didn't rashly approach the wooden houses. Instead, they sent someone back to report and called for more people. However, just as they were about to move, suddenly an aura appeared behind the two of them, causing their bodies to tremble!
The two of them hurriedly turned their heads to look behind them. Appearing in front of them was the target of all the sects – Lu An!
The target they had been searching for so long was right in front of them. However, the two of them didn't feel any joy. Instead, their faces turned pale and they were so frightened that they almost fainted!
The two of them were at the middle and late stage of the eighth level respectively. Although Lu An was alone, they had heard that Lu An had defeated the core elder of the Yin Yang Divine Sect, Cui Yan. How could the two of them be his match?!
Run!
The two of them immediately ran. At the same time, they circulated all the energy in their bodies. The rings on their hands lit up as they prepared to release the poison.
However, how could Lu An let them run away?
In order to end the battle quickly and avoid unnecessary trouble, Lu An's eyes instantly turned red. The aura of death swept out and engulfed the two of them. Feeling the aura of death at such a close distance, coupled with the fact that they were already frightened to death, the two of them lost their momentum in an instant. Their bodies trembled and their strength and speed decreased drastically!
Then, Lu An made his move.
At such a close distance, the two of them had no chance to retaliate. Under the circumstances where the two of them were defenseless, Lu An slapped each of them with his palm. The cold air directly entered their bodies, freezing their blood vessels. Immediately, the two of them lost their strength and fell to the ground, shivering. Their bodies were covered in frost.
To Lu An, dealing with opponents of the same level other than the Hachiko clan was simply too easy.
The two of them didn't die. Lu An also didn't intend to kill them. After all, he could obtain a lot of information from them. After dealing with them, Yao walked over from the side. The surrounding cold air didn't affect her at all. She said gently, "Let's go back."
"En." Lu An nodded.
Not only Lu An, there were many others doing the same thing on this day. But only on this day, in case the Guang You Sect found out and sent out experts. Furthermore, the Ice Fire Union chose to take action in very remote places. This way, ordinary sects wouldn't spend the effort to send people to such places. Only the Guang You Sect who had declared war would do so.
In a short day, the Ice Fire Union had captured more than 30 people from the four sects. Most of them were Level 8 Heavenly Masters, while the rest were Level 7 Heavenly Masters. Under interrogation, these people gave out a lot of information about the four sects. Although there wasn't any core information, it was still very valuable to the Ice Fire Union. From it, they could deduce many things.
At this moment, the Lu Clan's people were sitting in an underground meeting to discuss how to deal with the enemy. Kong Yan gave her suggestion.
"We can't make a move on Level 9 Heavenly Masters, nor can we make a move on the core elders. However, we can make a move on people related to the core elders." Kong Yan said seriously. "This way, we can force the enemy to fall into chaos and find an opportunity."
Liu Yi looked at Kong Yan. There wasn't any blame in her eyes. Instead, there was a trace of appreciation. In a war, it was either you die or I die. Even life and death didn't matter. It was meaningless to talk too much about morality. After all, Kong Yan had stayed in the underground world before. She understood this point more clearly.
However, Liu Yi shook her head and said to Kong Yan, "Remember, the reason why evil people are stronger is because their bottom line is too low. They care too little about things. Even if we really catch the relevant people, they can generously give up. Instead, it would be us wasting our efforts. It is also because of this that I informed the four sects on the day of the declaration of war. I told them to handle their own matters to avoid being caught by others. "
As she spoke, Liu Yi paused. She frowned slightly and said, "I hope they will take this seriously and not get into trouble."
