Ryūka's Strange Situation
"Many thanks, Qimei. I might have to return to the Far West this time. Please send my regards to the Sect Master, Yuezu, and Elder Han Yan. This is the Heavenly Domain Starry Sky Essence, please take good care of it!"
Zhuowen cupped his fists, took out a bottle of Heavenly Domain Starry Sky Essence, and handed it to Tong Qimei before leaving.
Tong Qimei silently watched Zhuowen's back as he left. She let out a soft sigh, but did not try to persuade him to stay.
After leaving the Half Moon Hall, Zhuowen took out his flying ship and left the Star Field in a streak of light.
In the Far West, the Myriad Magnet Sea was shrouded in a powerful magnetic field.
Ever since the Four Great Islands' failed crusade against Dubhe City, the Myriad Magnet Sea became the sole ruler of Ryūka.
Ryūka's fame was unparalleled, and they became the strongest force in the Myriad Magnet Sea and even the Far West.
Moreover, because Zhuowen obtained all the resources of the Luoshen Palace, Ryūka's development in Dubhe City was extremely fast.
In the far west, all the cultivators who had heard of the Long family were filled with awe. However, most of them were eager to become a disciple of the Long family.
In the Far West, who did not know that Ryūka was rich and had a deep foundation. Most of the cultivators who joined Ryūka had their cultivations greatly increased.
They were very clear that this was because Ryūka was rich in resources, and the energy in the Ryūka's territory was much denser than the other places in the Far West.
At this moment, in the Ryūka Tower in Dubhe City, Zhuo Xiaotian, Feng Xiyao, Lü Hantian, Dou Xuan, and the other Ryūka higher-ups were sitting in the hall, their brows tightly knitted, not saying a word.
The entire hall was eerily silent.
Finally, Lü Hantian spoke. He stood up and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, what should we do now?
Chen Xue has disappeared without a trace. Even if we send out many people, we have no news at all?
If Zhuowen comes back, how are we going to explain it to him? "
Zhuo Xiaotian, who was standing at the head of the table, looked at Feng Xiyao beside him. The latter also saw the look in Zhuo Xiaotian's eyes, but she just lowered her head and didn't speak.
Zhuo Xiaotian gave a soft sigh and said, "Keep searching. I think Chen Xue might have gone out to do something and will be back after a while."
Dou Xuan suddenly spoke up. He cupped his hands at Zhuo Xiaotian and said, "City Lord, Madam Chen Xue was with your wife back then. What happened to Madam Chen Xue?
Your wife should know best, right? "
Feng Xiyao's beautiful eyes condensed, and she immediately said unhappily, "Senior Dou Xuan, although you are the strongest in Dubhe City now and the most respected, my affairs shouldn't be your turn to care, right?"
Dou Xuan lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "Dou Xuan doesn't dare. I'm just voicing my thoughts. If Madam doesn't like it, Dou Xuan will apologize to Madam."
Feng Xiyao silently looked at Dou Xuan. Although she was unhappy in her heart, she didn't dare act up.
Dou Xuan's cultivation was indeed the strongest in Dubhe City. Over the past ten years, with the help of the Luoshen Palace's resources, Dou Xuan had already reached the peak of the Void Sky Seventh Step, far surpassing all the Ryūka people in Dubhe City.
Moreover, Dou Xuan controlled 25% of Dubhe City's forces. Although Feng Xiyao was unhappy with Dou Xuan's words, she didn't dare fall out with Dou Xuan.
"Ai!
Don't argue, I'll take care of this matter. As for Chen Xue's matter, Dou Xuan hopes that you can send several tens of thousands of troops to help my people look for her. "
Zhuo Xiaotian waved his hand, trying to smooth things over. He then looked at Dou Xuan.
Dou Xuan raised his head and revealed a mocking smile as he said, "City Lord, I'm very sorry. Our Dubhe City is currently being eyed by many forces. For the safety of Dubhe City, you can forget about sending several tens of thousands of troops."
When these words came out, Zhuo Xiaotian's eyes immediately became sharp. However, Dou Xuan didn't back down at all, as if he didn't put Zhuo Xiaotian in his eyes at all.
"Dou Xuan, have you forgotten Zhuowen's instructions?
You're not the City Lord of Dubhe City right now and uncle Zhuo is the City Lord. Do you plan on disobeying the City Lord's orders now? "Lü Hantian's temper was rather irritable. He immediately stood up and spoke in a cold voice.
Dou Xuan coldly looked at Lü Hantian and said, "I haven't forgotten, so I'm calling Zhuo Xiaotian the City Lord. As for orders, he, he, only I can manage my troops. Don't even think about interfering!"
After saying this, Dou Xuan stood up and left the hall. The rest of the people in the hall all revealed looks of anger.
"Uncle Zhuo, this Dou Xuan is too much. He actually doesn't put you in his eyes at all just because his cultivation is high." Lü Hantian said with a frown.
Zhuo Xiaotian sighed softly and said, "In the past, the reason why Dou Xuan was so respectful to me was all because of Zhuowen. However, ever since the news of Zhuowen falling into a fault in the starry sky, Dou Xuan doesn't put us in his eyes anymore."
"There's no one in Ryūka who can suppress this Dou Xuan. Hantian, you have a rather impulsive temper, but don't act recklessly. You're not a match for this Dou Xuan. Furthermore, this Dou Xuan controls most of the troops in Dubhe City. It's best not to offend him."
Lü Hantian frowned and said, "Uncle, if this Dou Xuan goes overboard and forcefully seizes the position, what will we do?
This Dou Xuan is simply a despicable person. It's very likely that he will do such a thing. "
"If he wants to seize the position, then I'll give it to him. As long as he can protect the Ryūka people, it's fine." Zhuo Xiaotian shook his head helplessly and said.
Lü Hantian fell into silence, but he did not refute it. However, there was a flame burning in his eyes.
"Alright, let's end this matter here. You can all leave!"
Zhuo Xiaotian tiredly waved his hand and the high level members in the hall all left. Lü Hantian also cupped his hands and left.
When there was no one left in the hall, Zhuo Xiaotian suddenly looked at Feng Xi Yao beside him and said in a soft voice, "Xi Yao, what happened?
Ever since Chen Xue disappeared, you've been acting strange. "
Feng Xi Yao turned around and Zhuo Xiaotian could clearly see the fear in Feng Xi Yao's beautiful eyes. His heart was filled with even more doubts.
"Xiao Tian, Chen Xue almost killed me in the past. She was very terrifying and powerful at that time and I couldn't resist her at all.
But in the end, I don't know why, but Chen Xue didn't make a move and just left like a crazy person. "Feng Xi Yao said in a daze.
Zhuo Xiaotian's pupils shrank as he said, "That's impossible. How could Chen Xue do something like this?
She has always been very gentle. "
Feng Xi Yao suddenly said in a low voice, "Chen Xue said before that she was not like herself. She said that there was a strong strange power in her body that seemed to be controlling her, making her do a series of strange things."
Zhuo Xiaotian fell into silence. He sat in his seat with tightly knit brows.
Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard from outside. Shortly after, the winged Wu Die hurriedly walked in. Her pretty face was filled with a panicked expression.
"Wu Die, what happened?" Zhuo Xiaotian looked at Wu Die and asked.
Wu Die quickly said, "Uncle Zhuo, quickly come out and help Hantian. He and Dou Xuan are fighting and if you don't stop them, Hantian will be beaten to death ….."
"What?"
