"Lord Hallmaster, according to my observations, Wu Zhengyang mysteriously disappeared last night. I searched the entire Star Dou Mountain Range, but I couldn't find him." Ying Kun carefully reported to Xi Hao, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, shortly after daybreak the next day.
"Wu Zhengyang disappeared?" Xi Hao opened his eyes in surprise when he heard Ying Kun's report. "Ying Kun, is there anything else? What are the reactions of the fellows who are on good terms with Wu Zhengyang? "Xi Hao looked at the place where Wu Zhengyang had been cultivating last night.
"Lord Hallmaster, I discovered that the two warriors who were on good terms with Wu Zhengyang were extremely anxious because of his mysterious disappearance this morning. The two of them even went around the Star Dou Mountain Range separately. They were probably searching for Wu Zhengyang's whereabouts, but they didn't find anything, "Ying Kun replied in great detail.
The Fourth Hallmaster, Bu Ze, noticed the situation. "In that case, Wu Zhengyang suddenly disappeared. This doesn't seem to match Wu Zhengyang's usual style of doing things. With Wu Zhengyang's personality, why would he abandon his followers and leave without saying goodbye? "
Xi Hao frowned when he heard that. Wu Zhengyang was one of the few half-step Zhou Tian righteous gods with great prestige. They still knew a little about him. Now that he had suddenly disappeared, it seemed a little strange.
"Ying Kun, are there any other anomalies?" First Hall Master Xi Hao asked.
The old ancestor of the Ying Clan, Ying Kun, bowed. When he was about to answer, a circle of green light suddenly rippled beside him. The figure of the Second Palace Master, Xiu Hong, suddenly appeared in the middle of the crowd.
"Big brother, according to various clues, Wu Zhengyang should have left this place silently. The invisible formation we set up to prevent outsiders from entering the Star Dou Mountain Range has already shattered. According to the reports of our Nighthawks, there was nothing unusual with the Vermillion Bird and Long An Star Palace last night. They were all under surveillance, "Xiu Hong said directly.
"That's true. Our attention was all focused on the Vermillion Bird and Long An Star Palace. We didn't pay much attention to the situation behind us. With Wu Zhengyang's cultivation, it's not difficult for him to leave this place unnoticed, "said Fourth Hall Master Bu Ze.
First Palace Master Xi Hao's brows were still tightly knitted together. "But why did Wu Zhengyang leave this place quietly? Don't they want to fight for the only chance to obtain the Godseal Stone through other channels? "
"Big brother, I actually think that Wu Zhengyang has realized that the chances of obtaining the Godsealing Stone are extremely slim. Once the Vermillion Bird leaves, there will be no chance for them to compete with us for the God Sealing Stone in Long An Star Palace. Only then did he leave this place quietly. "Second Palace Master Xiu Hong said.
"Big Brother, I think there's another reason why Wu Zhengyang left quietly. That's why he's trying to be nice to us. After all, the only way for them to obtain the God Sealing Stone is through us. He doesn't want to fall out with us and sever his last chance to obtain the God Sealing Stone. "Fourth Hall Master Bu Ze added.
Hearing his two brothers' analysis, First Palace Master Xi Hao nodded slightly. "Wu Zhengyang is also a person who knows his own limits. I think it's as you've guessed. Wu Zhengyang left because he knew that there was no chance of obtaining the God Sealing Stone."
After a pause, First Palace Master Xi Hao's expression turned solemn. "Second Brother, tell them to pay close attention to the movements of the Vermillion Bird and Long An Star Palace. Pay attention to the movements behind us as well. Otherwise, we won't know anything if someone leaves."
"Ying Kun, can your great-grandson's tracking secret technique still detect the location of the Ling Family?" First Palace Master Xi Hao asked Ying Kun, the ancestor of the Ying Family.
Hearing this, Ying Kun's face suddenly revealed an embarrassed expression, "Yesterday, my great-grandson was still able to sense that the person surnamed Ling was still in the Long An Star Palace, but today, the tracking technique he used on the person surnamed Ling has already become extremely weak. In the next few days, it will completely disappear."
"Hmm …" First Palace Master Xi Hao gave a noncommittal reply. "It's good that he was still there yesterday! Hmph, how dare you steal the Fire God Physique from under our noses. This old man will make you spit it out ten times over … "
Time passed very quickly as they waited in silence. In the blink of an eye, night had fallen. However, the Star Dou Mountain Range was illuminated by the sea of magma in the core of the planet, making it seem as if it was daytime.
However, it was only as bright as day. Under the curtain of night, the magma sea in the earth's core was covered in a layer of darkness. The layer of darkness was indistinct and could not be compared to the brightness of the day. Even if the Half-step Great Universal Gods had excellent eyesight, it was difficult to distinguish the brilliance that was intertwined with the curtain of night.
Not long after the curtain of night fell, the Vermillion Bird circling above the sea of magma casually flapped its wings. It had flapped its wings thousands of times.
However, no one expected that after the Vermillion Bird flapped its wings, the undercurrent in the sea of magma slowly surged and gradually formed a hollow passage. A shadow flowed out of the sea of magma like flowing water.
With yesterday's successful experience, Shadow and the others were even more careful today. Moreover, the person who persuaded them today was Wu Zhengyang instead of Elder Hai. Compared to Elder Hai, Wu Zhengyang was more persuasive, and it was easier for the half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods to accept.
As a result, under the curtain of night, the face of a cultivator sitting cross-legged somewhere in the Star Dou Mountain Range twitched a few times. He deliberately suppressed his shock and used the excuse of chatting with a nearby cultivator for a while before returning to his own cultivation location.
No, it should be said that he had quietly changed his cultivation location. If someone were to observe carefully, they would discover that the distance between him and the martial artists in the vicinity had increased.
A few hours later, this martial artist disappeared from where he stood without a sound. Only a figure that looked like flowing water silently flowed into the magma sea at the core of the planet. After the Vermillion Bird flapped its wings again, the flowing shadow disappeared into the sea of magma.
Afterwards, the silence of the Star Dou Mountain Range was broken by a few cultivators on the morning of the second day. They did not care about the shocking commotion they caused as they quickly flew across the Star Dou Mountain Range in search of their leaders.
Bu Zi Wen had disappeared.
Among the half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods, Bu Zi Wen had also mysteriously disappeared after a night.
"Bu Zi Wen has also disappeared? Could it be that Bu Zi Wen is also surrendering to us? I didn't expect him to leave without a sound, "the First Palace Master Xi Hao said with a sigh after receiving the report.
"I think Bu Zi Wen probably saw Wu Zheng Yang leave quietly, so after thinking about it carefully, he came up with the same idea and left quietly." Second Palace Master Xiu Hong said.
"That's true. Although we've already arranged for people to keep an eye on the movements behind us, with Bu Zi Wen's abilities, no one would be able to discover him if he wanted to leave, "the Fourth Palace Master Bu Ze said after thinking for a while.
Hearing this, the First Palace Master Xi Hao nodded lightly before instructing, "Keep an eye on the half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods who are unwilling to submit to us."
Other than the three Palace Masters of the Star Luo Divine Palace, there were still nineteen half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods. Among these nineteen half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods, more than half were following the Star Luo Divine Palace. Nine of them, including Ying Kun, were following them.
On the other hand, Wu Zhengyang, Bu Ziwen, and Zhangsun Tong were the half-step Heavenly Cycle Righteous Gods who intended to fight against the Star Luo Divine Palace. Including the three of them, there were a total of ten people on Wu Zhengyang's side.
There were three people following Wu Zhengyang, four people following Bu Zi Wen, and three people following Zhangsun Tong. Now that Wu Zhengyang and Bu Zi Wen had mysteriously disappeared, the people following Wu Zhengyang and Bu Zi Wen were also at a loss. If it weren't for the fact that they didn't have a clear conclusion, some of them would have left already.
The First Palace Master Xi Hao had instructed Ying Kun and the others to keep an eye on the remaining eight out of the ten people who didn't belong to the Star Luo Divine Palace. However, those people were like headless flies. Everyone was anxious. The First Palace Master Xi Hao and the others didn't get any useful information.
After a night of silence, the three Palace Masters of the Star Luo Divine Palace decided to wait for the Vermilion Bird to leave. On the fourth morning of the deadlock, the three Palace Masters of the Star Luo Divine Palace suddenly realized that another half-step Zhou Tian Righteous God had disappeared without a trace.
The one who had disappeared was a half-step Zhou Tian Righteous God who was close to Wu Zhengyang. Of course, in the eyes of the three Palace Masters of the Star Luo Divine Palace, this half-step Zhou Tian Righteous God must have felt terrified because their leader had left. That was why he had left without a trace.
However, although it was an explanation, the three Palace Masters of the Star Luo Divine Palace, especially the First Palace Master Xi Hao, had already realized that something was wrong.
Every day, one of them would disappear without a trace. No one had seen them leave. This was too strange.
Finally, on the fifth morning, when the fifth half-step Zhou Tian Righteous God disappeared without a trace, the three Palace Masters of the Star Luo Divine Palace, including the First Palace Master Xi Hao, could no longer sit still.
"Something's wrong. This is strange. Every day, one of them would disappear mysteriously at night. Wu Zhengyang and Bu Zi Wen didn't have the face to tell the people who believed in them. Why did the three people who left without a trace also leave so mysteriously? Moreover, under our close surveillance, how could the person who left later leave without a trace? "The First Palace Master Xi Hao was puzzled.
At this moment, the Second Palace Master Xiu Hong and the Fourth Palace Master Bu Ze also realized the problem. They all looked at the First Palace Master Xi Hao with a heavy expression. Everyone had a bad feeling in their hearts.
"Second Brother, Fourth Brother, tonight, the three of us will go out personally. Fourth Brother and I will do our best to monitor the places outside of the Long An Star Palace. We will see how those guys left without a trace. Second Brother, your power of the Law of Space is impressive. You will monitor the area around the Long An Star Palace for any abnormalities. "
When the First Palace Master Xi Hao gave the order, the Second Palace Master Xiu Hong and the Fourth Palace Master Bu Ze nodded heavily at the same time. The Second Palace Master Xiu Hong clenched his fists tightly. "I want to see what kind of demon is behind this!"
