Gongsun Haoyue led the way, with Flowing Cloud Matriarch, Han Yi, and Han Yue following behind. The four raced toward Yunzhou.
As they traveled, Gongsun Haoyue explained the reason behind what had happened.
The truth was that things were not as simple as Murong Yin had explained to Feng Yue and Zheng Yunshang.
The mysterious land Jiang Liu had discovered in that mountain range outside Yunzhou City could now be described as a dead zone.
Any martial artist or exotic beast that approached it either disappeared or went mad before vanishing without a trace.
Earlier, Jiang Liu had asked Murong Lie to search for similar mysterious lands in hopes of finding more Cultivation Pearls.
However, after Murong Lie was injured, the matter had been put aside and never pursued further.
Later, Jiang Liu no longer needed the Cultivation Pearls' assistance, so he completely forgot about it.
Afterward, Jiang Liu even distributed the Cultivation Pearls among several women so that they could cultivate a little faster.
Still, he had instructed Wind Hall to keep an eye on information from that area and see whether any changes occurred.
After Jiang Liu left the Human Realm, Lin Chi had never dared to slack off regarding the matters Jiang Liu had entrusted to him. He continued sending people to keep watch.
Yet no one had expected that, for some unknown reason, the mysterious land would suddenly undergo a tremendous change in the past few days.
The incident had only begun a few days ago.
When the first signs appeared, the people from Wind Hall had already reported it to Lin Chi.
Lin Chi later sent people to investigate as well. However, no matter how many he dispatched, every single one vanished without returning.
At that point, Lin Chi no longer dared to continue investigating.
