Li Yin didn't hit Ceng Ping hard, just enough to knock her out. After two hours, Ceng Ping woke up.
After waking up, the memories in her Sea of Consciousness emerged quickly. She remembered Dong Huashun's disappearance and her being knocked out. She immediately lifted the quilt and got off the bed. Then, she saw a woman sitting in the room.
It was none other than Kong Yan.
Liu Yi had sent Kong Yan to calm Ceng Ping down and prevent her from doing anything stupid. Seeing Li Yin sit up, Kong Yan immediately got up and walked to the bed, asking with concern, "How do you feel?"
Ceng Ping knitted her brows, looking at Kong Yan. "How's Dong Huashun?"
"... No news yet." Kong Yan could only tell her the truth. "But the Hegemon has tried his best to find him. The Sect Union will also help. We can only wait."
Hearing Kong Yan, Ceng Ping's frown deepened. She lowered her head. After several breaths, she said heavily, "Hegemon, don't worry. I won't do anything that will trouble the Union."
Kong Yan was bewildered. She didn't expect that Ceng Ping could see the big picture. In fact, Liu Yi had guessed it. That's why she had sent Kong Yan alone to calm her down. Otherwise, if Ceng Ping wanted to leave, Kong Yan couldn't stop her.

Headquarters of the Union, Eight Ancient Continents.
Since they had returned from the mission, everyone's mood was heavy. Although the mission didn't have any problems and everything went smoothly, the capture of the Ice Fire Union's member still made them nervous. Although Dong Huashun wasn't strong, everyone knew that he was one of the core elders of the Ice Fire Union. Now that he was captured, it was obvious that they were targeting him.
Not only that, it meant that the entire mission had been exposed. However, the strange beast clan didn't tell the other clans but carried out their own mission. From this point of view, it was almost certain that the sect had leaked the information and cooperated with the strange beast.
Liu Yi came to the headquarters of the Union personally. Before she had concrete evidence, she couldn't question any sect. However, it didn't mean that she couldn't pressure the sect that had done this. The representatives of all the sects were in the top floor. Everybody was silent. Liu Yi looked around and then said coldly, "I hope that the Union's not behind this."
Hearing this, everyone trembled slightly and looked at Liu Yi. Under everyone's gazes, Liu Yi's expression was still cold. She turned to look at the Earth Sect's Sect Master Huang Ding and said, "But if it really was done by someone from the sect, how should we deal with this matter?"
"This …" Huang Ding hesitated, not knowing what to say. This matter definitely had nothing to do with the Great Earth Sect, but he didn't know how severe the trial would be for the other sects.
"Sect Master Mo, what do you think?" Liu Yi looked at Mo Ce and asked.
Mo Ce frowned and pondered for two breaths before saying, "Only we, the Level 9 Heavenly Masters, knew about this mission in advance. To be able to unite the strange beasts of the Second North Sea, this is definitely not something a Level 8 Heavenly Master can do. This blame cannot be pushed to the Elders. It must be a Level 9 Heavenly Master's plan."
"If we can really find evidence and find out which Sect did it …" Mo Ce paused, looked around, and said, "I suggest that we all join forces to punish them. If it's light, they will pay with their lives. If it's heavy, they will be exterminated."
Hearing Mo Ce's words, everyone present gasped! Coming from Mo Ce's mouth, one could imagine the impact!
"I also agree."
Everyone was shocked and turned to look. The one who spoke was Chen Kuang of the Yin Yang Divine Sect. Chen Kuang's expression was very serious as he said, "It has only been a month since the Sect Alliance, but things keep happening. If this continues, the alliance will be meaningless. It's better not to have an alliance than to have internal and external troubles. If the alliance still wants to continue, we must clean up the atmosphere and serve as a warning to others! "
After hearing Chen Kuang's words, everyone nodded lightly. It was too tiring to defend against the strange beasts and also be on guard against their enemies. They could either cooperate or fight their own battles, which would make them feel more at ease.
Seeing that both of them had spoken, Huang Ding naturally wouldn't fall behind. He immediately said, "I also agree! I don't know which camp or sect doesn't agree. If no one objects, when the truth comes to light, let's not waste any more time! "
Huang Ding, Mo Ce, and Chen Kuang all spoke. They represented the Earth Sect, the Heaven Devouring Sect, and the Yin Yang Divine Sect. Including the Ice Fire Union, there were already four camps that agreed, more than half of them.
If it wasn't their doing, no one would object to this suggestion. Everybody looked at the remaining three camps. One of them agreed readily, leaving only the Guang You Sect and the Ye Fire Sect.
Under everyone's gazes, the representatives of the Guang You Sect and the Ye Fire Sect didn't show much hesitation. They all nodded to show their agreement. After they agreed with this plan, they immediately discussed the next step.
However, there were too few ways to save people, and the chance was too slim. After chatting for a while, they didn't have anything else to say. Liu Yi didn't want to waste time here. She stood up, which attracted everybody's attention.
"I still have something to do." Liu Yi's voice was cold. She looked around and said, "If Dong Huashun can return to the Ice Fire Union today, I won't pursue this matter!"
Then, Liu Yi flew away, disappearing from people's sight. What Liu Yi said in the end was no doubt meant for the murderers. It seemed that … the Ice Fire Union was worried that the secret would be leaked!
Ice Fire City, Eight Ancient Continents
The representatives of the big sects were right. As the Hegemon of the Ice Fire Union, Liu Yi's biggest worry was that Dong Huashun would leak the secret. As one of the core elders, or even the leader of the core elders, Dong Huashun had a lot of information. He even knew about the Life and Death Union. If this matter was exposed, the Ice Fire Union would be in danger. They could even become the enemy of the entire human race.
Liu Yi wasn't worried about Dong Huashun. She believed in her own eyes. She knew that Dong Huashun wasn't someone who would yield. Otherwise, she wouldn't have let him know about this matter. What she was worried about was the method. If the enemy used illusions or other soul consciousness attacks, it would affect Dong Huashun's soul consciousness and trick him. At that time, she wouldn't be able to control whether he told her the secret or not.
Liu Yi had asked the Life and Death Union to go to the Second North Sea to ask for information. However, the sea was so vast and there were so many strange beasts. It was like finding a needle in a haystack. They couldn't find it in just a few days. Liu Yi didn't have much hope. She only hoped that Dong Huashun could survive.

Second North Sea, in the mountain of an island.
At this moment, the interior of the island had been completely sealed. The powerful force could even make a late stage Level Eight Heavenly Master feel great pressure. At this moment, near the corner of the mountain, a figure was kneeling on the ground. His hands and feet were chained, and he couldn't move at all.
There were four other people in the mountain. Two of them were real humans, while the other two were clearly transformed from strange beasts. After the two sides communicated, the two strange beasts left the mountain. The two humans walked towards the person who was chained.
Pa.
The two stopped in front of the kneeling figure. They looked at the large pool of blood on the ground and then looked at the lowered head of the person in front of them. There was no sympathy in their eyes.
"Don't play dead." One of them squatted down and grabbed the figure's hair. He pulled his head up and said, "If you don't say something useful today, I will let you die for real!"
The head was pulled up, and the face covered with blood was immediately exposed. It was Dong Huashun.
The two humans standing in front of Dong Huashun didn't reveal their faces. Instead, they covered their faces with a veil and wore black clothes. Only their eyes were exposed. The strength of the two was higher than Dong Huashun. In addition, Dong Huashun was seriously injured when he was taken away by the strange beasts. They didn't need to be on guard.
Under the threat of this person, Dong Huashun didn't say anything. His eyes were obviously white, and his consciousness was muddled. He couldn't even understand what was being said, let alone answer the question.
Seeing this scene, the two men in black looked at each other and frowned. One of them nodded slightly and moved. The wood attribute slowly instilled into Dong Huashun, healing his injuries little by little.
