Before Gongsun Haoyue could react, Jiang Liu's figure flashed and flew towards the ship that was coming from there.
Soon, Jiang Liu's figure appeared above the ship.
Jiang Liu sensed that there were four Grandmaster on this small ship, so it must be this ship.
Immediately afterward, Jiang Liu Liuxian revealed himself and used his Divine Sense to lock onto everyone on the ship.
At this moment, Dongyang Hu, a Grandmaster on the ship, felt uneasy ever since they approached the strait.
Suddenly, he looked up and saw a person suddenly appear in mid-air.
He immediately sensed something was wrong, because he discovered that the person appearing in mid-air was none other than Jiang Liu.
As the person who has been stationed on the mainland for the longest time to collect intelligence, he has an extremely deep understanding of Jiang Liu, the current Holy Lord of the Star Cloud Holy Dynasty.
The reason they wanted to escape this time was because they heard rumors that Jiang Liu was about to advance to the Saint Realm, so they wanted to go back and report it.
In fact, he did want to escape the mainland and didn't want to go back.
After all, he didn't want to provoke the prestige of a Saint Realm warrior.
However, it seems that his plan is likely to fail.
After locking onto everyone on the ship, Jiang Liu rapidly approached the large vessel.
As Jiang Liu approached the large ship, the other three Grandmaster on board finally spotted Jiang Liu and immediately flew out.
Each of them held a weapon and attacked Jiang Liu.
However, Dongyang Hu was clearly lagging behind, and it's unclear what he was planning.
Jiang Liu reached out and grabbed forward, causing the space in front of the ship to compress.
The weapons that the men were attacking stopped abruptly, then Jiang Liu grabbed them and flung them all towards the ship's deck.
The weapons stuck in the deck trembled, intimidating everyone on board.
At this moment, one of them flickered, seemingly trying to escape.
Before he could make any further moves, he lost consciousness in mid-air and then fell headfirst into the sea.
It turned out that Jiang Liu had already noticed his unusual behavior and was taking special care of him.
"If you don't want to die, obediently return to the ship and answer any questions I ask," Jiang Liu said coldly, looking at the remaining three Grandmaster.
The three of them were terrified when they saw Jiang Liu, who showed no signs of vitality.
Because they know that only when someone's strength far exceeds their own will they be unable to sense their opponent's vital energy.
Without a doubt, this is exactly the situation of the person in front of us.
Once Jiang Liu got closer, they were finally able to see clearly who the person in front of them was.
In that instant, their faces turned ashen.
Recently, there has been a lot of information and rumors about Jiang Liu throughout the world.
The reason they were in such a hurry to flee the mainland was because they heard the rumor that Jiang Liu was about to advance to the Saint Realm.
They were in a hurry to get back and report, and dared not linger on the road for even a moment.
If they weren't waiting for the messenger, they would have already gone ahead.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Liu has caught up with them again.
Previously, they joined the Assassination List under concealment in order to secretly gather intelligence about the mainland.
After completing the Assassination List mission, they spent some time gathering information in Qian Province.
At that time, Qian Province was already the center of the world, and all kinds of news were flying around, making it the best time to gather information.
Moreover, the conflict between the Star Moon Sect and the Flowing Cloud Sect is gradually escalating.
But later, they discovered that they seemed to be being watched.
At that time, they felt they had gathered enough intelligence and had also received news that Jiang Liu was about to advance in rank.
That's why they decided to flee the mainland.
However, the messenger who controlled the communication channels happened to be out at that time.
When they finally received the messenger and rushed to the beach, they realized something was wrong.
They thought they had shaken off their monitors, but when they went out to sea, they discovered that the surveillance had never stopped.
Jiang Liu had no idea that in that instant, they had figured everything out.
Seeing that the three were still in a daze, he waved his hand repeatedly, and three streams of energy shot out, entangling the three and throwing them onto the deck of the large ship.
Then, with another grab, the large hand pulled Dongyang Hu, who had fallen into the sea, up with him.
Thus, all four Grandmaster from unknown forces fell into Jiang Liu's hands.
Jiang Liu remembered that Lin Chi had said before that there were only three assassins listed on the Assassination List.
In other words, this fourth person has been active outside all along.
He must have gathered a lot of intelligence or made contact with some forces.
Jiang Liu darted onto the deck.
Looking at the four people on the deck, and the many shipwrights huddled to the side, trembling with fear.
Jiang Liu discovered that most of the boatmen were ordinary people, so it seemed that they had directly rented the boat.
However, Jiang Liu felt a little strange. Weren't there no ordinary people left in Sea Gazing City? So where did these boatmen come from?
The four people on the deck, including Dongyang Hu who had just fallen into the sea, had now regained consciousness.
They all watched Jiang Liu nervously, wondering how Jiang Liu would torture them next.
"Now you can tell me where you came from, and where you plan to go?" Jiang Liu said calmly.
"Sir, we are just ordinary people from the Jianghu, and we are now preparing to go overseas to find a way to make a living." Before anyone else could answer, one of them spoke first.
The person who rushed to answer was their messenger.
"Oh? Is that so?" Jiang Liu glanced at him, grabbed him with his large hand, pulled him close, and then controlled his dantian energy.
Then, Jiang Liu directly probed his Divine Sense sea with his Divine Sense.
Then, under Jiang Liu's questioning, he began to honestly and thoroughly explain the situation.
The remaining three stared in disbelief, never expecting Jiang Liu to have such a trick up his sleeve.
They originally thought that with the messenger's deliberate bluff, they should be able to get past Jiang Liu's questioning.
As it turned out, they were overthinking things.
It turns out that Jiang Liu was questioning them to give them a way out.
If they don't know what's good for them, they'll probably really sink to the bottom of the sea.
After the messenger finished giving his instructions, they rushed to give their own accounts before Jiang Liu could even ask.
Jiang Liu looked calmly at the Grandmaster had voluntarily confessed.
He was quite satisfied, not expecting these people to be so pragmatic.
Through this interrogation, Jiang Liu finally learned who these people were and where they came from.
It turns out they were all from the Wheel King Palace.
Their ancestors were among the first to escape from the mainland from the Halls of Yama.
After escaping from the mainland, they continued to flee southward across the sea.
They only settled down there after encountering several huge islands.
These people had no idea what had happened to the Halls of Yama back then.
Because their ancestors had always kept silent about this matter, never mentioning it.
