Ao Zhen had, in the previous months, unlocked several Youyun Jellyfish thanks to the Blood Essence Stones collected by Jiangnan. As the Master of the Divine Path, as long as those people join the Divine Path Sect, Chen Qing could possess their abilities, naturally... this included the formidable tracking and hiding abilities of the Youyun Jellyfish.
However, even so, Chen Qing couldn’t find the slightest trace.
A three-month-old infant, capable of such thods?
Chen Qing felt gloomy inside. Even Kagura, who retained her mories, couldn’t achieve this. Reincarnation and gifted talents were constrained by the physical limitations, sothing impossible for a three-month-old infant, no matter how powerful the reincarnated being was.
That left only one possibility...
External support!
There was a group of external supporters who had been waiting here early, and then found an opportunity to take away those reincarnated from the Western lands and also sealed this place’s Hell Ruler.
He... had been targeted long ago.
"My lord?" Wei Gongcheng, looking at Chen Qing’s slightly gloomy facial expression, felt a sudden jolt in his heart. It was rare for him to see Chen Qing like this; this matter was probably more serious than imagined.
"Alright... thank you all, it’s nothing major, just go back and rest. Where is that Witch Doctor, I’ll go check..."
"Can His Highness King Qin save Lord Witch Demon?" the middle-aged man beside him hurriedly asked.
The chief promptly scolded, "Show so respect!"
"No matter..." Chen Qing waved his hand: "I will try my best, but I cannot guarantee a rescue."
"I really appreciate that..." the chief quickly changed his tone, and the people around him also showed faces full of gratitude.
Chen Qing saw this and didn’t speak. Although the natives here were temporarily subdued, they clearly trusted their own people more. The status of the Witch Doctor was still very high.
Outside, Chen Qing first sent the others away, then transmitted a ssage privately to Wei Gongcheng, "Things have beco troubleso."
"My lord, what exactly happened?" Wei Gongcheng frowned and asked.
"Sobody has plotted against . Among the Reincarnators brought over, there are so very important figures – their importance is probably beyond my imagination. They even sealed this place’s Hell Ruler to conceal this secret, a group more dangerous than the Yun Du Ancient Demons."
Wei Gongcheng had heard about the situation in Yun Du from Chen Qing while they were on the ship. He never imagined that the legendary Sorcerer Dynasty was actually established with the support of demons, and that so-called most brilliant era of the Human Sorcerers was entirely a scam from the beginning to the end.
Thinking about the possibility that those creatures might be hidden around him at any mont, he felt hairs stand up on his skin, just like the fear when his brothers had initially been replaced by puppets.
Now, Chen Qing actually said that there were beings more dangerous than the Ancient Demons on this island.
"My lord, should we leave here first, wait for the main army to arrive, and then deal with it?"
"I’m afraid it’s too late..." Chen Qing shook his head.
Wei Gongcheng instantly beca vigilant and sensed the surroundings but didn’t detect any danger.
"There’s no ambush; those people should have left here."
"Left?" Wei Gongcheng was startled: "After sealing Hell Ruler, they just left?"
To him, sealing the Hell Ruler seed like a very troubling act. Was it all just to take away a few children? Was that necessary? But the next instant, he probably understood.
"They did it to conceal the whereabouts of those children?"
Chen Qing nodded. Wei Gongcheng, as one of the earliest Hell Rulers, must have understood the operation of the Hell Ruler. Anyone who had undergone reincarnation through Hell Ruler once would have their whereabouts recorded in the Hell Ruler, just like a diary. This was why there were seldom rebellions within the Divine Path Sect.
What you did would be recorded by the Hell Ruler, but the prerequisite was undergoing reincarnation once.
Tian Heng and others were outsiders who hadn’t yet undergone Hell Ruler reincarnation, which provided an opportunity for action. Normally, within three generations in the state under Divine Path Sect, a perfect system would have ford, greatly eliminating wrongful convictions, since every action you take is recorded, and you cannot escape.
This design was not conceived by Chen Qing, but by the original chief designer, who envisioned a perfect nation for the Divine Path.
This matter has never been publicized externally, including many Principal Clerks in the Hell Ruler who are unaware of it. The records are kept confidential by the Lord of the Hell, and besides the mbers of the Shen Family and Wei Gongcheng, other masters of the Great Hell Ruler, no outsiders know of this.
Since one’s entire life would be recorded, there is no need to publicize it imdiately.
Yet this group of people who strategized from overseas actually knew of this setting, almost entirely confirming Chen Qing’s conjecture.
The group behind the scenes has finally made their move!
Only they would know this secret... and choose to seal the Hell Ruler, because only by sealing the Hell Ruler could Chen Qing be prevented from finding where those children had gone.
But at this mont, Chen Qing had a doubt, just what is so important about those Western reincarnates?
In theory, if they were important, why bring them in through his own channels?
They are capable of strategizing here and possess such formidable power, which ans they have the ans to enter, so why use his channel? Isn’t that alarming the enemy?
If they wanted to infiltrate his Divine Path Sect nation, couldn’t they quietly co in by themselves, then disguise as commoners and mix into Jiangnan by fleeing calamity?
Now, with Jiangnan introducing a large population, isn’t it very simple for such an organization to mix in?
Why make it so complicated?
Chen Qing’s thoughts raced, constantly pondering various possibilities, and ultimately coming to one conclusion: the other party must use his channel to co to this world completely, otherwise... there would certainly be issues.
Who exactly are these people... to be so important?
And who is eting that person?
Why choose this ti?
Too many mysteries to count.
"Master, since they intend to conceal their tracks, it suggests they do not want Master to trace them, which also ans their power is not enough to deal with you, right?" Wei Gongcheng quickly deduced.
Chen Qing remained silent, technically speaking that was true, only if they had no way to deal with him would they resort to such circumventive thods, because if they had overpowering strength, they could just ambush him upon his arrival on the island and capture him, so why not do so?
Not enough power?
No...
Chen Qing felt it wasn’t that simple.
Before going to Yundu, his strength had not yet managed to break through to King Level. If it was a very powerful force, they wouldn’t be unable to capture him unless they could foresee all information and knew that he had a major breakthrough on the side of Yundu, hence they avoided him this way.
Chen Qing found it unrealistic, there weren’t many important people going to Yundu, and only Ziyue knew the extent of his power; it couldn’t possibly be that Ziyue had betrayed him?
So, more likely, these people had intended to avoid him from the very start.
Since they are not afraid of him yet evaded him, they must have ulterior motives, but what did he possess that they could covet?
Chen Qing could only think of one thing, that was Jiangnan he had painstakingly established, his Divine Path Sect nation.
These people were different from the others who wanted to occupy Jiangnan; those rely saw the advantages of Jiangnan but did not know that the current prosperity of Jiangnan was due to the Divine Path Sect. By just occupying the place, they wouldn’t obtain all the essences, but those who knew the intelligence were different.
They must know the benefits of the Divine Path Sect.
"Ziyue... they are in danger..." Having figured out all the connections, Chen Qing reached this final conclusion.
"Lady Ziyue?" Wei Gongcheng was taken aback: "Why?"
"They deliberately showed flaws, leading here, to separate ..." Chen Qing closed his eyes and took a deep breath: "They... want to seize the Divine Path Sect!!"
