Chapter 1155 - 1155: Arrival at Yudu

The next morning.

Everyone awoke from a state that was neither fully asleep nor awake. At first glance, except for Liu Zixuan, everyone seemed energetic, but upon closer inspection, most had dark circles under their eyes.

Liu Zixuan said helplessly, "Was it necessary to be like this? It's not like we're heading to the execution ground."

"Zixuan, actually the other day, I did some divination and found out…"

"How did things go with the Ai Family yesterday?"

Liu Zixuan directly interrupted Gu Yu, thinking that discussing divination at this point is useless. Even if it foretells hardship, shouldn't it be faced regardless?

Gu Yu paused, "The Ai Family followed the original plan, only lightly disturbing the people from the Netherworld Hall. Both sides suffered minor injuries, but they were superficial. It seems the Netherworld Hall doesn't really care about the Ai Family, so they didn't get too entangled."

"What about other areas?" Liu Zixuan asked again.

"After the Netherworld Hall people came in, members of the Dragon Spirit appeared. Three teams headed south, two teams headed north, all aiming at various hidden sects and families. The disciples from the Thief Sect reported that the teams heading north and south had more people than the other routes!" Mo Chengfeng spoke.

Liu Zixuan stroked his chin, "Then these two teams should correspond to the Jiang Family and the Four Elephants Sect. After all, they currently are among the strongest forces in the Star Sea."

"That's right." Mo Chengfeng nodded, "Besides these five teams, there was another group with not many people, but each has a strong aura, led by members of the Dragon Spirit, heading towards the Yudou Mountain Range."

"Was it at midnight?" Liu Zixuan asked.

"Three hours ago." Mo Chengfeng looked at his watch and said.

Liu Zixuan stroked his chin; it was six o'clock at that moment. If the Netherworld Hall started moving towards Yudou at three, they should have just arrived.

"Then we should set off too. Can't give them too much time to prepare."

"Alright!"

Everyone quickly packed and drove directly towards the Yudou Mountain Range.

There weren't many people, just Liu Zixuan, Zhao Yi, Gu Yu, and Mo Chengfeng.

Success or failure rests on today.

After more than two hours of speeding, the four finally arrived at the Yudou Mountain Range.

Looking at the cloud-wrapped mountain range, Liu Zixuan showed a face full of excitement and yearning, "This should be the most mystical place in the Star Sea!"

"Countless dynasties, countless generations, have longed for this place. Yet after thousands of years, no one has thoroughly explored it." Gu Yu rubbed his chin and looked into the depths of the mountain, exclaiming, "Even here, one can clearly feel the powerful force of the Dragon Veins. It's truly astonishing!"

"This place is the root of the Star Sea."

Liu Zixuan laughed while getting out of the car, walking towards the interior on foot.

This place is relatively close to the city. If a great battle were to occur, it would naturally affect ordinary people. So initially, it was decided upon at the peak of Yudu.

The so-called peak of Yudu isn't the summit of the main mountain in the Yudou Mountain Range but the interior of the main mountain. Fighting on the summit would be kind of boring.

"I wonder when Yunxuan and Tiger will come?" Zhao Yi mumbled.

"They will definitely come." Liu Zixuan confidently smiled, "They wouldn't miss such a significant occasion."

"Look, there are people ahead." Mo Chengfeng pointed at the mountain path ahead and called out.

Liu Zixuan followed his gesture and saw three to five figures, quickly approaching their destination. Upon closer inspection, "That should be people from a hidden family or sect."

"It seems that they did not mobilize many people!" Gu Yu sighed, "But it's understandable. They all need to guard their family gates."

"If Old Qing and the others were here, these people might not need to come!"

Liu Zixuan shook his head; some things are indeed difficult to predict in advance.

When a hundred-day battle agreement at Yudu was set, the strongest among the hidden families and sects, represented by Old Qing, were present.

Only three months have passed, and yet they have all vanished without a trace.

It reflected the old saying well: plans can never catch up with changes!

"And today in the early morning, there was some news about them." Gu Yu suddenly spoke.

Liu Zixuan halted, "Why are you only saying it now!"

"The authenticity of this news hasn't been confirmed, and even if mentioned, it might not greatly affect today."

Gu Yu smiled wryly, "Celestial Secret Pavilion sent word that someone encountered Old Qing and another mighty figure abroad. Both suffered severe injuries, following their route, they seem to be heading back to Star Sea."

"Old Qing and the others who disappeared were six in total, all the strongest of the hidden sects and families. For them to be injured, and severely so, they must have experienced a significant event. The battle is imminent, there's no time to care about them."

"Indeed."

Gu Yu nodded helplessly, pointing ahead, "We should be close!"

Liu Zixuan took out a cigarette, lit it, and activated his X-ray Vision, scanning around.

Given his current realm, he could rely on his perception to sense the surroundings. But when sensing, the aura is exposed, and might be discovered by hidden experts of the Netherworld Hall nearby. So the X-ray Vision is used instead.

The X-ray Vision has already improved along with the elevation of his realm, and scanning the mountain surroundings is not difficult.

After looking around, Liu Zixuan smiled, "It's really lively today."

"To our left-front, there are four teams, likely from sects and families; the right-front has two teams, with a larger group not far from them. Seems we're the last to arrive."

"We must be cautious. The Netherworld Hall arrived earlier and may have set up ambushes." Gu Yu furrowed his brow.

Liu Zixuan chuckled, pursed his lips, then tiptoed and jumped onto a nearby boulder, drawing in his Qi to amplify his voice several times, shouting into the mountain, "Ladies and gentlemen, since everyone is here, it's better to reveal yourselves! Although we're enemies, considering the battle agreement, let's not resort to sneak attacks or assassinations!"

"Whoa, Zixuan has gone mad!" Mo Chengfeng grinned and mumbled.

"No, this is Zixuan's style. He doesn't like enemies lurking in the dark. This shout will soon reveal everyone." Zhao Yi smiled slightly, "Bringing everyone to the same playing field makes the battle more exciting. Otherwise, constantly guarding against arrows from the dark can be unsettling!"

"But we've also set up hidden arrows here." Gu Yu said innocently.

Zhao Yi gave him a look, "That's why we need an advantage!"

"Can you not learn Zixuan's shamelessness?!" Gu Yu said, feeling annoyed.

Zhao Yi shrugged, "Can't help it, he's my Zixuan. Moreover, don't you find a bit of shamelessness quite thrilling?"
