Nine Revolutions Star Technique

”Immediately seal off Hidden Dragon Island, no one is allowed to enter or exit, violators will be killed without mercy!”

”Yes!”

”Send troops to surround Zhou Xu’s mansion, capture all his family members and relatives, if anyone escapes, kill them without mercy!”

”Yes!”

”Thoroughly investigate his followers and see how many have defected to the Thirty-Six Sects!”

”Yes!”

...

Orders were rapidly issued from the City Lord’s Mansion.

Once the situation stabilized, Luo Lin’an immediately summoned her subordinates. Those who heard the commotion came and saw the Isle Master’s Mansion as if a hurricane had swept through, only then did they realize a rebellion had just occurred.

An enraged Luo Lin’an issued several strict orders to thoroughly investigate Zhou Xu’s remaining forces.

”How is Mr. Ye?”

After giving the last order and stabilizing the situation on the island, Luo Lin’an finally raised her head and asked.

A servant respectfully replied, ”Mr. Ye is in the backyard!”

”Good, take me there!”

Luo Lin’an nodded slightly.

A moment later, she saw Ye Qingchen again in the small courtyard.

At this moment, Ye Qingchen was sitting in a chair, a faint smile on his face. He looked nothing like the legendary Celestial South Fierce God, not like a great warrior who single-handedly stirred the Thirty-Six Sects into chaos.

At his feet, a small black snake was trembling and lying prostrate. This was Su Moran’s Black Dragon Flood Dragon. Luo Lin’an had seen it before, and even before Su Moran, this Black Dragon Flood Dragon had never been so respectful.

Su Moran and Bai Ji were sitting on either side.

Seeing Luo Lin’an enter, Su Moran showed a trace of a smile:

”Ye Qingchen, this is Luo Lin’an, my close friend and also the Island Master of Hidden Dragon Island.”

Ye Qingchen nodded slightly, looking at this valiant woman from the East Sea, dressed in armor with a ponytail, bronze skin, nearly the complete opposite in personality to Su Moran, and slowly said:

”Island Master Luo, Hidden Dragon Island’s calamity arose because of us, naturally I came, and I will certainly take action to resolve it for Master Luo.”

”No need to be so polite, just call me Lin’an!” Luo Lin’an lifted a bowl of tea and drank it all in one gulp, only then saying after a moment of contemplation: ”Earlier Zhou Xu said, Mr. Ye went to the Enchanting Sea Region, and I also sent people to investigate in many places...”

Su Moran couldn’t help but look over.

They were extremely curious, in the eyes of outsiders, Ye Qingchen staying behind to cover was almost certainly a death sentence. Although he luckily left the East Sea, facing the endless pursuit of the Thirty-Six Sects plus the vast ocean, survival seemed bleak.

So as time passed, even Su Moran, no matter how reluctant to believe, had to admit from the bottom of her heart that Ye Qingchen had fallen.

”That’s right, I did enter the Enchanting Sea Region, but I unexpectedly found an island and shook them off.”

Ye Qingchen smiled and said, ”I originally planned to drag it out with Flor and them, but later found Jiang Ran and others gone. I deduced they detoured to the Star Gathering Scattered Island, so I came!”

Even though Ye Qingchen spoke very lightly, everyone was aware that the experience must have been life-threatening.

Luo Lin’an sighed inwardly.

Fortunately.

Ye Qingchen judged correctly.

If he had been half a day late, Hidden Dragon Island would definitely have changed hands, and by that time, Ye Qingchen would have faced the entire island’s backlash. But Zhou Xu’s rebellion revealed cracks in Hidden Dragon Island, even she did not know what to do.

Thinking of this, Luo Lin’an said:

”Mr. Ye, what do you plan to do about Jiang Ran and the others?”

”Su Moran and I discussed this!” Ye Qingchen responded, putting down the tea bowl in his hand, saying: ”Jiang Ran, Hong Feiping, Chao Tian, the three Half-Step Celestial Immortals, plus Xingluo Island, Flowing Light Island, Profound Cloud Island... and other eight islands, about twenty-six top-level Earth Immortals!”

Luo Lin’an’s ears perked up.

One must know.

With Hidden Dragon Island’s strength, opposing any one island was already difficult. Let alone facing challenges from eight islands at once, with the additional backing of three Half-Step Celestial Immortals.

She wanted to hear how this Celestial South Fierce God would deal with this situation.

”No need to worry, I’ll just go and kill them!” Ye Qingchen said with a hint of a sneer on his face, ”No matter their extraordinary means, I will break it with one sword!”

After speaking.

Amid Luo Lin’an’s shocked gaze, Ye Qingchen had already stood up tall, without even looking back, heading towards the void outside:

”Wait here, let me meet these eight island masters!”

”The calamity of Hidden Dragon Island is mine to solve!”

”Before dawn, I will bring back the heads of these twenty-six top-level Earth Immortals and Jiang Ran and his two!”

Even before the words fully fell, in the blink of an eye, he had disappeared from everyone’s sight, leaving Luo Lin’an standing dumbfounded in place, seemingly unable to believe it.

Su Moran came over, patted her on the shoulder, and smiled lightly:

”Since he said it, he will certainly accomplish it.”

She looked into the void, a trace of cold light in her beautiful eyes. The Thirty-Six Sects had humiliated them for such a long time, now it was finally their turn to fight back!

...

Meanwhile.

Star Gathering Scattered Island remained calm, tranquil as an ancient well.

Ye Qingchen’s sudden arrival had not even spread to Hidden Dragon Island, leaving many still unaware. One of them being Xingluo Island, which was likewise oblivious, especially as the mansion was buzzing with excitement.

”Great Island Master, when things are done, we can completely divide up Hidden Dragon Island. By that time, not only will we lose a strong enemy in the Star Gathering Scattered Island, but our own strength will advance further!”

Xingluo Island’s Second Island Master, Song Xin Hua, raised his cup with a smile.

The conspiracy to incite rebellion was his idea, after all, the high and mighty Thirty-Six Sects waged war, but it’s them who bore the brunt. Taking Hidden Dragon Island without bloodshed was naturally the best choice.

”Indeed!”

As the Great Island Master of Xingluo Island, Song Qiyi managed to maintain composure, but could hardly conceal his joy. Unlike Southern Heaven and other places, the Star Gathering Scattered Island had dispersed islands with extremely scarce resources.

Hidden Dragon Island, as one of the large islands, had abundant resources; taking a share would save Xingluo Island decades of development. The only pity was having to split with seven other families.

”Great Island Master, spies just sent back news saying Ye Qingchen appeared on Hidden Dragon Island.”

At this moment, someone below reported.

Instantly.

The once lively banquet quieted down, all at once they felt this name was very familiar but couldn’t recall who it was.

Only Second Island Master Song Xin Hua slightly frowned:

”Really, wasn’t that kid said to have entered the Enchanting Sea Region, probably already dead at the hands of the Thirty-Six Sects. How could he appear! Even if he luckily didn’t die, knowing the circumstances would only hide like a turtle, how could he appear on the Star Gathering Scattered Island...”

Everyone hearing this was about to burst into laughter.

Just saw a flash of sword light.

Song Xin Hua’s body suddenly trembled, a blood line appeared on his throat, and with blood spraying out, his entire head flew up. In the shocked eyes of everyone, a man in a green robe had unknowingly appeared in the main hall.

In the eyes of those present, whether in fear or shock.

Ye Qingchen slowly raised the Star Sword in his hand, grinning:

”Disappointed you, didn’t I!”
