The next morning.
Ye Cangtian was eating breakfast in his room when hurried footsteps were heard from outside.
The next moment, Wei Xiaofeng rushed into the room.
He arrived beside Ye Cangtian, panting, and said urgently, "Mr. Ye, something's wrong, people from Feiyun Pavilion are here."
Huh?
Ye Cangtian's brow immediately furrowed. Feiyun Pavilion's reaction was too fast.
Thinking this, he looked at Wei Xiaofeng and asked in confusion, "Didn't they say there were still two days left before the deadline they gave?"
Wei Xiaofeng shook his head and said, "I don't know! Maybe people from nearby islands retreated, attracting their attention..."
Ye Cangtian nodded in understanding and then left the room with Wei Xiaofeng to go to the beach.
Chixia Island Beach.
When Ye Cangtian arrived in front of the observation building on the beach, more than a dozen small warships had appeared on the sea in front of him.
Each warship didn't seem to have too many people, only twenty to thirty, totaling three to four hundred.
"What's the situation now?"
As Ye Cangtian asked, Wei Gu's face was frighteningly grim.
He looked at Ye Cangtian and said in a deep voice, "Feiyun Pavilion just shouted. They already know you're here..."
Wei Gu stated that Feiyun Pavilion's attitude was extremely tough.
This time, they not only demanded that Chixia Island agree to all previous demands but also that they hand over Ye Cangtian.
If they refused, Feiyun Pavilion would order the annihilation of Chixia Island.
"Heh, so few people, knowing I'm here, and they still want to annihilate Chixia Island. It seems they really don't take me seriously!"
Ye Cangtian sneered coldly, then looked at Wei Gu and said, "Don't mind them. If they dare to come, I'll make sure they never return..."
There weren't many people from Feiyun Pavilion in front of him, and coupled with the illusion array Ye Cangtian had set up in advance, he was confident he could annihilate them all on the beach.
Now, Ye Cangtian's biggest concern was the transfer situation of Chixia Island, so he inquired.
The next moment, Ye Cangtian realized that the transfer of other islands was not yet complete overnight; at least one-third of the people had not been transferred to Chixia Island.
Now that Feiyun Pavilion's warships were blocking the way, the transfer had to be halted.
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian fell silent. Transferring two-thirds of the people overnight was already very fast.
If Feiyun Pavilion hadn't interfered, it would have taken at most another half a day to complete the transfer at this rate.
Thinking this, he glanced at Wei Gu and said lightly, "Please prepare a fast boat for me. I want to personally meet the people from Feiyun Pavilion!"
"Absolutely not!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Gu quickly stepped forward and said, "Mr. Ye, you don't know, but the leader of the opposing side this time is a供奉 (Gongfeng) from Feiyun Pavilion! His cultivation has already reached the Heaven level!"
In Wei Gu's opinion, both sides were at the Heaven level, and the opponent also had a large number of Feiyun Pavilion disciples, giving them a clear advantage.
If Ye Cangtian went rashly, there would be considerable risk, and he absolutely could not let Ye Cangtian be in danger.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!"
His voice came. Seeing Ye Cangtian's full confidence, Wei Gu finally nodded after a moment of silence, then quietly gave his orders.
On the sea.
On Feiyun Pavilion's main warship, an old man sat in the ship's cabin, meditating with his eyes closed.
His expression was not very good. Dealing with a force like Chixia Island was supposed to be easy.
But now that Ye Cangtian had arrived, things were different.
Ye Cangtian had been famous for a long time and had repeatedly thwarted Feiyun Pavilion's actions, indicating that Ye Cangtian's strength and strategy were outstanding.
With such a person helping Chixia Island, even if Feiyun Pavilion could achieve final victory, it would only be a Pyrrhic victory.
"Report!"
Just then, a hurried figure approached the old man.
"Fourth Gongfeng, a fast boat has been spotted heading from Chixia Island!"
Huh?
The old man frowned, his eyes showing a look of confusion.
What did Chixia Island mean by this?
If they surrendered, they could have simply sent a message asking them to board.
But if they didn't surrender and were to start a war, how many people could a single fast boat carry?
Thinking this, he still asked in confusion, "How many people are on the fast boat?"
"Two. One is the boatman driving the boat, and the other is a man. I can't see clearly from this distance, but he seems to be Ye Cangtian of the Hidden Division!"
Hearing his subordinate's reply, the old man was stunned for a moment, and then his expression turned grim.
If it were really Ye Cangtian, then the other party was too disrespectful to Feiyun Pavilion!
Thinking this, he got up and went onto the deck to observe.
As the distance between the two sides closed, everyone could see Ye Cangtian's figure clearly.
At this moment, a subordinate walked up to the old man and asked, "Fourth Gongfeng, should we launch an attack directly?"
"Give him a chance to board!"
The Fourth Gongfeng looked coldly at the other party and reprimanded him.
Ye Cangtian was a Heaven-level expert and also possessed long-range attack capabilities.
If the two sides truly engaged in combat, except for the main warship, the other warships would have difficulty withstanding Ye Cangtian's attacks, resulting in heavy losses.
Besides, he wanted to see the purpose of Ye Cangtian's solo arrival.
Soon, the fast boat arrived below the main warship. Seeing that the other party had not launched an attack, Ye Cangtian smiled faintly, then sprang up and landed directly on the deck.
What greeted his eyes were forty to fifty Feiyun Pavilion disciples and an old man with graying hair.
"I am the Fourth Gongfeng of Feiyun Pavilion. I am leading all the disciples on this ship to welcome Ye Cangtian of the Hidden Division!"
The old man spoke first, a strange smile on his face.
On the surface, Ye Cangtian clearly looked like he had not recovered from his injuries, which would affect his combat power.
Coupled with the disciples on this ship, Ye Cangtian was now like meat on a chopping block in his eyes.
Ye Cangtian looked at the old man and smiled slightly, "You are much stronger than the other useless people in Feiyun Pavilion for daring to let me board."
As his voice fell, the Fourth Gongfeng's face obviously darkened, and a hint of killing intent appeared in his eyes.
"Ye Cangtian, how dare you be so arrogant? In the past, you only dealt with some of Feiyun Pavilion's juniors. What's so glorious about bullying the weak!"
Heh heh.
Ye Cangtian scoffed disdainfully and said, "Juniors? It seems that the so-called juniors you speak of should be considered seniors to me! And dealing with them isn't bullying the weak, but eliminating harm for the people!"
Hmph!
The Fourth Gongfeng snorted coldly. Seeing that Ye Cangtian was so sharp-tongued, he decided not to argue with him.
So he asked, "Ye Cangtian, what is your purpose in coming here alone!"
"I just finished the auction and trading fair and planned to come here for a vacation to relax."
"But I ran into you dirty bugs, so I came to warn you. Either scram quickly, or prepare to be buried at sea!"
After speaking, Ye Cangtian lit a cigarette, leaned against the railing, and took a leisurely puff.
He paid no attention to the increasingly angry eyes on the other side.
Huh?
With those words, the Fourth Gongfeng's expression changed instantly.
This place was far from Yanyu Tower, so he didn't know the situation there.
But he did know that Feiyun Pavilion was preparing to act against the forces near Yanyu Tower to start its path to dominance.
And if Ye Cangtian really came from Yanyu Tower, it could only mean that Hun San's mission had failed.
Otherwise, Hun San would never have let Ye Cangtian go.
Thinking this, the Fourth Gongfeng calculated the time. It seemed that only half a month had passed since the auction and trading fair.
In such a short time, the other party could at most have used the time to travel, and that too directly from Yanyu Tower to Chixia Island.
How was this possible!
After all, even Hun San didn't know about his actions here!
Thinking this, he looked grimly at Ye Cangtian and said, "Ye Cangtian, why are you appearing here? Is there an informant of yours within Feiyun Pavilion!"
After much thought, the Fourth Gongfeng could only come up with this one plausible answer.
Uh?
That question stumped Ye Cangtian.
How could he have thought that the Fourth Gongfeng would suddenly ask such a question?
However, Ye Cangtian reacted quickly.
A sinister smile instantly appeared on his face, and he said, "Old man, you are indeed very smart, but think about it with your clever mind, will I tell you who he is?"
Since the other party asked, Ye Cangtian decided to go along with it.
After all, the old man in front of him was only the Fourth Gongfeng. If even the Fourth Gongfeng had Heaven-level cultivation, then it seemed that the entire Feiyun Pavilion had at least six Heaven-level experts.
This was a terrifying combat force.
If he could stir up trouble within Feiyun Pavilion, his chances of victory in the future would be greater...
