In the blink of an eye, the stars shifted, and when Bai Yang looked again, he had appeared somewhere else.
He had set out from Iron Blood City and traveled through a teleportation array. In almost no time at all, he had arrived on Taicang Star, on the array in a small, ancient city.
Bai Yang stepped off the array. He had barely left its range when its light flickered and several more people appeared.
He understood. Because of the Fountain of Life, many people wanted to go to Great Desolate City, so they had come to Taicang Star to use it as a transit point.
In less than half a minute, more than a hundred people had stepped out of the array. Bai Yang sensed that several of them were no weaker than Blood Wolf and the others he had killed on the Barbarian Race's star. One of them was even beyond his ability to read—probably an Emperor-level expert!
These are only the powerful people I've sensed in the less than a minute since arriving. The stars closer to Great Desolate City must be the same. The Fountain of Life has drawn the world's experts together. A gathering storm indeed...
He sighed inwardly and stayed on guard. With so many powerful people gathered, one careless move could get him killed.
In a world where the strong ruled, there was no such thing as reason. Someone might simply take a dislike to you and bring down a deadly disaster.

He had already sent word to Dan Qiulin through his Divine Soul
