In fact, if it were somewhere else, Han Fei would have directly killed the Yang family’s Venerable.

However, not on the Scattered Stars Island.

Firstly, if he really tried to kill him, the others would definitely not sit idle. Secondly, if a Venerable died on the Scattered Stars Island,the weather would change and the sea demons would definitely take action.

Therefore, Han Fei knew that the grand plan of the human race was more important than his own honor.

At this moment, after the Venerable of the Chu Sect left, the Venerables of the Yang and Ye families naturally left. Only the two Venerables of the Grand Void Academy and Jade Fairy Palace stayed behind.

After all, the seven major academies were still somewhat related to the Thug Academy and weren’t hostile to them.

Xue Shenqi said indifferently, “Okay, now that things have come to this point, let’s go to the Mayor’s Mansion to talk!”

…

In the Mayor’s Mansion.

As soon as the four of them sat down, Xue Shenqi said, “The three people just now are Chu Qing from the Chu Sect, an intermediate Venerable. Yang Kun from the Yang Family, a junior Venerable. Ye Kai from the Ye Family, an intermediate Venerable. Now, there are nine Venerables on the Scattered Stars Island, including me. There are three intermediate Venerables. The other intermediate Venerable is from the Heavenly Sword Sect.”

As he spoke, Xue Shenqi glanced at Han Fei indifferently, implying, Don’t worry, the big clans aren’t completely without opponents. The Heavenly Sword Sect has always been strong and won’t let the Venerables of the big clans run rampage.

Han Fei nodded slightly and looked at the two people from the Jade Fairy Palace and Grand Void Academy.

Xue Shenqi said, “Elder Bingyun of the Jade Fairy Palace has just reached the Venerable realm and her strength is on par with mine. Patriarch Six Swords of the Grand Void Academy is a peak-level junior Venerable. He may break through to the intermediate Venerable realm at any time.”

Han Fei cupped his hands. “Greetings, Seniors.”

The two returned the salute.

In fact, they also knew that Han Fei called them seniors because he was too young.

However, Han Fei’s growth was so fast that they dared not underestimate him.

Han Fei asked, “There are others?”

Xue Shenqi said, “Sun Baisheng from the Sun Family, Cao Shuang from the Cao Family, and Jian Sanqing from the Heavenly Sword Sect. Most of the people here are figures who have lived in seclusion for a long time. The only person you know is probably Sun Baisheng.”

Han Fei was slightly surprised. “Sun Baisheng has become a Venerable?”

Xue Shenqi said, “He became Venerable two years ago.”

Han Fei didn’t really care. He had just become a Venerable. With his current strength, he should be able to kill him in one fell swoop.

Even in a head-on battle, Sun Baisheng couldn’t easily resist his attack.

However, there were too many Venerables on the Scattered Stars Island.

At this time, the battle hadn’t started yet, but a lot of Venerables had come. Since the Scattered Stars Island had summoned some Venerables over, the sea demons would send their strong masters over too.

Therefore, if he guessed right, these people’s target was not the Scattered Stars Island but the Empyrean Waterfall.

Elder Bingyun of the Jade Fairy Palace said, “You are both new strong masters. We don’t know much about the situation. Since one of you has controlled the Scattered Stars Island alone for many years and the other has the potential to become a king, we’ll leave you two alone!”

In the Grand Void Academy, Patriarch Six Swords also nodded slightly. “I’ll take my leave first.”

After the two of them left, Xue Shenqi waved his hand and sealed the Mayor’s Mansion.

Seeing this, Han Fei hurriedly asked, “Where are the other Venerables?”

Xue Shenqi said, “Jian Sanqing of the Heavenly Sword Sect is confronting a sea demon Venerable on the ancient battlefield. Sun Baisheng is guarding the periphery of the Twisted Jungle. He probably knows that you have returned and doesn’t want to meet you. Cao Shuang of the Cao Family is indifferent to others’ affairs. But when there is a big battle, he will appear.”

Han Fei frowned. “Has the situation reached the point where even the big clans of the Thousand Star City and the seven major sects have to send people over?”

Xue Shenqi looked into Han Fei’s eyes and said, “What do you think?”

Han Fei’s heart sank. “The Empyrean Waterfall?”

Xue Shenqi nodded. “It’s not just the big clans. Do you think the seven major sects have no such intentions? They do too. However, they are slightly better than the big clans and are also considerate of humans.”

Han Fei said, “What’s the situation on the sea demons’ side now? They sent over so many Sea Spirits and Venerables this time. A few years ago, more than 5,000 sea demons died on the ancient battlefield. Have they recovered after only a few years?”

Xue Shenqi said, “About two years ago, a huge earthquake near the Ten Thousand Demon Valley set off a tide that even hit the area within 50,000 kilometers of the Scattered Stars Island.”

Han Fei raised his eyebrows. “The range of the shock is more than 500,000 kilometers?”

Xue Shenqi shook his head slightly. “I’m not sure. When the tide came to the Scattered Stars Island, it wasn’t very strong. However, after that incident, four explorers died on the Scattered Stars Island. They all went to investigate in different directions, but none of them came back.”

Han Fei frowned. “Explorers’ perception range is limited after all. Since there are Venerables in the Ten Thousand Demon Valley, it’s normal that they died there.”

Xue Shenqi nodded. “Yes. Since that time, I knew something must have happened in the Ten Thousand Demon Valley. Because of a strong hunch, I found a strong master from the Heavenly Sword Sect to guard me to enter the Venerable realm. Later, I guessed that the Ten Thousand Demon Valley and the Sea Demon Royal City should have established a direct connection.”

Han Fei didn’t pay much attention to the Royal City, but was quite curious about Xue Shenqi’s strength. He asked in surprise, “You could become a Venerable at any time?”

Xue Shenqi said, “The longer it takes to nurture the Great Dao, the smoother the path of the Great Dao will be.”

After a pause, Xue Shenqi said, “Later, three sea demon venerables came to attack us, and the Thousand Star City butted in at that time. At that time, your father and the Thug Academy had already gone into hiding. Therefore, I had to accept the people from the Thousand Star City. The good thing was that there were many Venerables, but the bad thing was that these people were not sincere and their goal was the Empyrean Waterfall.”

Han Fei took a deep breath. “Can’t we find the location of the Royal City?”

Xue Shenqi said with a straight face, “It must have appeared, but we can’t find it. The Scattered Stars Island doesn’t have enough manpower to find it. Besides, even if we find it, so what? What do you think will happen if a junior Venerable finds it?”

Han Fei certainly knew what would happen.

The Scattered Stars Island needed to be guarded, and if they found the Royal City, there must be many strong masters there. Besides, the Royal City was called the Royal City because of the existence of Deep Sea Giant Demons.

Although in the Yin-Yang World, with the Heavenly Dao Dharma Eye, it might be impossible for a king to be born, it was still possible for a half king to appear.

Han Fei couldn’t help but think of the Old Monster of the Chu Sect.

That guy was probably already a Half-King. The Sky Dissecting Finger, the owner of the Heavenly Sword, and Old Han were all blocked by him, which showed his strength.

If the Scattered Stars Island also had a strong enemy at the Half-King realm, it would probably be wiped out in the blink of an eye.

Not appearing now? It didn’t mean it wouldn’t appear in the future.

Han Fei couldn’t help but remember that the Venerable he killed had a map in his Sun-Moon Shell.

Other people were afraid that if they found the Royal City, it was impossible for them to come back alive, but he was different. He had the ability to come back.

Even without the Twin Divine Technique, he had a personal bodyguard now, didn’t he?

These thoughts flashed in Han Fei’s mind, and he immediately said, “Shall I go find it?”

Xue Shenqi shook his head slightly. “Even if you find it, so what? Besides, do you think there are still unknown places in this sea area? If there are, I’m afraid I have to tell you one thing. This sea area has a range. We are trapped within this world as if a huge seal is locking us here. Its range, roughly estimated, is about 8 million kilometers. In the past, many Explorers tried to walk out of that seal. However, no one ever came back after entering…”

Han Fei’s heart did a flip. “Wait a minute! Are you saying that we can enter the Wall of Death here?”

“The Wall of Death?”

Xue Shenqi’s eyes suddenly narrowed. “You mean this seal is called the Wall of Death?”

Han Fei didn’t keep it a secret. “The Wall of Death is also known as the Rampant Sea. There is indeed a barrier there, like a circular band, in which there are ancient creatures and some ferocious beasts and demons that might never have appeared in this world. It’s not only in our world, but also in the Water-Wood World, but we can’t even enter it in the Water-Wood World.”

Xue Shenqi frowned. “What is it like on the other side?”

Han Fei wanted to explain a little bit about the Water-Wood World. In fact, he didn’t need to keep it a secret, just like the people of the Water-Wood World had long known that there was a Yin-Yang World next door…

However, just as Han Fei was about to say it, suddenly, the entire Mayor’s Mansion was enveloped by a powerful pressure.

Xue Shenqi felt that his body suddenly tightened, and he couldn’t even stand up.

“A great Venerable?”

According to Xue Shenqi, the so-called great Venerables were at the level of advanced Venerables or even peak-level Venerables.

Han Fei tilted his head and looked at the void, saying, “Jing’er, there’s no need to make such a big noise, right?”

Ning Jing was hiding somewhere, but her voice was echoing, “The queen said that you can’t say anything until the two worlds are connected.”

Han Fei shrugged. “Okay! Remove the pressure first, okay?”

Shua!

Xue Shenqi was already covered in cold sweat. He suddenly felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders, and the pressure on his body was relieved.

As the supreme commander of the Scattered Stars Island, the Guardian War God, he didn’t get up or look for Jing’er. Instead, he raised his eyelids and stared at Han Fei’s eyes. “Did someone come over from that world?”

Han Fei nodded. Xue Shenqi knew what was going on. He had already guessed it. Why bother to keep it a secret?

Therefore, Han Fei said, “Don’t worry. There’s only one person, who is on my side. Under normal circumstances, she won’t do anything.”

Xue Shenqi pondered for a long time. There was no king in the Yin-Yang World. The existence of a great Venerable was enough to change many things. Sure enough, Han Fei didn’t go there for nothing. He had returned with such a strong master hidden behind him!

Xue Shenqi asked, “How strong is she?”

After all, he was the supreme commander. Xue Shenqi’s first thought was not fear, but how to make use of this person.

Han Fei said, “She’s already a Half-King, but don’t think too much. She won’t do anything unless it’s necessary.”

Xue Shenqi clenched his fists even more tightly in his sleeves.

Obviously, the level of a Half-King had stunned him.

However, he quickly analyzed the pros and cons. Behind Han Fei, there was already the Thug Academy, Han Guanshu, and Ren Tianfei. Now there was also a Half-King.

It seemed that no one could stop him from becoming a king.

Slightly relieved, Xue Shenqi said calmly, “Okay, no third person will know this.”

With that, Xue Shenqi raised his head and looked at the void, saying indifferently, “I hope you don’t release your suppressing power at will. The situation here is complicated. The sudden appearance of a Half-King will change many things. It might not be good for Han Fei.”

After that, Xue Shenqi looked at Han Fei again.. “From today on, you take my position.”
