If they continued to chase in the direction they had previously deduced, then the area to the west would be another area of influence, White Stone City.
White Stone City was an extremely difficult bone to chew, not at all comparable to Yongling Island. It might even be more difficult than Golden Island.
White Stone City could be described as a piece of metal, and there was almost no possibility of infiltration. It was an existence that gave both major powers a headache, but they just couldn't provoke it.
White Stone City's strength was very powerful, especially that mysterious old city lord who rarely showed himself. He was unfathomable, and no one dared to provoke him.
From this point of view, in a sense, if the Purple Thorns Chamber of Commerce and Cloud Sky Pavilion could obtain White Stone City's support, it would greatly change the power comparison between the two sides. This was very important.
But now, the problem came. White Stone City also knew this.
As a result, White Stone City didn't express its stance in the face of the two major powers. It didn't refuse, nor did it agree. This was very uncomfortable, but at the same time, doing this was also the most advantageous method for White Stone City.
To be able to have the capital to sit back and reap the benefits... Why did he have to personally go up and fight to the death? From this point, it could be seen that the four families on Yongling Island were short-sighted and that they were not united.
Of course, the reason was very complicated, but the result was very sad.
Just like that, Yan Jue searched the bottom of the sea for a while. In the end, he still got nothing, except for the two other auras besides the sand in the wind. After memorizing them, there was nothing else. It seemed that the murderer was very cautious and even cleaned up the traces before leaving.
Thinking of this, Yan Jue's frown deepened, because this meant that the opponent this time would be a very troublesome person. It was not good news for him, and it was very uncomfortable.
"Sir, we were ordered to rush over, please show yourself."
At this moment, a shout came from the surface of the sea. Yan Jue paused and immediately left the bottom of the sea to return to the surface.
He saw three groups of people rushing over from the surroundings. Each of them carried a flag belonging to the Cloud Sky Pavilion.
Yan Jue did not hide his aura at all. When the three groups of people saw him, they immediately became obedient and lowered their heads to bow.
"Greetings, sir."
"Greetings, my lord."
"May I know why you summoned us here, my lord?" One of them asked.
Yan Jue's expression was very serious as he directly said, "Let me ask you, did anything happen here just now? Did anyone notice the situation here?"
"This, there didn't seem to be any activity, right?"
"Yeah, we didn't see anything. Could it be that something happened here just now?"
"Sir, we didn't see any movement."
After thinking for a while, the three groups of people responded at once.
Although Yan Jue had already mentally prepared himself, after hearing these replies, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
This also meant that no one would know what had happened here just now, much less know how Feng Lisha had died.
Up until now, Yan Jue's heart was filled with incomparable doubt. Logically speaking, even if Feng Lisha was no match for him, he could still escape. With Feng Lisha's movement technique, his opponent definitely wouldn't be able to easily trap him. However, he had never imagined that Feng Lisha would actually die like this. No one knew what happened to Feng Lisha.
He sighed in his heart. His eyes turned cold as he said, "Alright, get lost. It's none of your business."
Hearing this, everyone was a little dumbfounded. They did not know what had happened. It turned out that he had only called them over. He had casually asked them a few questions and they were fine?
Although they couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved in their hearts, once they thought of the fact that the other party was a genuine Tribulation Transcender, the tiny bit of dissatisfaction in their hearts instantly dissipated, and it no longer existed.
They even felt a wave of relief. Fortunately, they only came to ask a few questions and everything would be fine. If there was really something else, they might even lose their lives. That would be a huge loss.
When they thought up to here, everyone felt as if they had been granted amnesty.
"Yes, yes, yes."
"Yes, milord. Let's get the hell out of here."
Everyone came dejectedly and left dejectedly. They came quickly as well, and they left even faster as if they were fleeing for their lives.
Yan Jue merely watched this scene silently, and he didn't say a word.
He naturally knew that he couldn't blame these people. After all, these people were all ordinary cultivators. The strongest among them was only at the late Prominent Divine stage, and there were even people at the early Prominent Divine stage. It was still acceptable to let these people do some dirty work, and they wanted to get down to business... It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
To put it bluntly, they were just a bunch of motley crew members.
No matter how many of these people there were, it was basically useless. If Cloud Sky Pavilion wanted to rely on these people to achieve the idea of unifying the West Sea, it was no different from a pipe dream. It was even more impossible.
Yan Jue silently sighed. This result also woke him up. He now had a clearer understanding of the great victory of Yongling Island's night battle.
If it wasn't for the sudden attack earlier, the final outcome would still be unknown.
Now that the Redbud Chamber of Commerce had more defenses, it was virtually impossible to obtain such a great victory again.
Especially when it came to Tribulation Transcenders of the Redbud Chamber of Commerce, it was even more difficult to deal with them.
The path in the future might be even more difficult, and it could even be said that experts like Feng Lisha would die.
"Looks like any Tribulation Transcender will die after this great battle. I thought it was too simple before, so I'll have to be more careful in the future. As for Feng Lisha's death..."
Yan Jue muttered to himself.
He had a certain responsibility for Feng Lisha's death, but it wasn't something he should worry about who would investigate.
Right now, the only thing he could do was wait for the headquarters of the Cloud Sky Pavilion to send someone to assist him. After that, it would be safer to act together.
"White Stone City!"
As he thought of this, he looked towards the west.
At this moment, in the western sea region.
At the bottom of the sea.
Chen Xiao and Xiaolong were quietly hurrying along. For the sake of safety, the two of them didn't even dare to show their faces on the surface of the sea, fearing that they would be seen by the spies of Cloud Sky Pavilion. That would be dangerous.
Along the way to the west, Chen Xiao's Divine Sense had been carefully observing the surface of the ocean and the surrounding situation.
As they got closer and closer to White Stone City, the number of rogue cultivators began to increase. Occasionally, there would be one or three to five rogue cultivators. They quickly flew over their heads, but Chen Xiao was very careful. There were no traces of him being discovered.
