The effect was immediate. In three months, he was "robbed" several times.

The first time was an old man walking alone. He looked skinny and had eyes like poisonous snakes. He jumped out from behind a pile of rocks and wanted to make a sneak attack. Kraken felt bored walking, so he crushed his dark claws with his backhand and pressed his other hand on his Tianling Cap. The fierceness in the old man's eyes instantly turned into panic, and then deflated like a popped balloon.

The second time there were three people, and they cooperated very skillfully. One controlled the vines to wrap around his feet, one held up a big knife and slashed from the front, and the other went around behind and wanted to stab him. Kraken felt a little annoyed, like being surrounded by three mosquitoes at the same time and then being swatted to death with a "buzz" sound.

Kraken summarized the "dining experience" of the past few months: Star Luo Empire Soul Master The folk customs in this place are quite "warm and hospitable". Regardless of whether it is Lone Wolf or a group of dogs, they dare to come up and take a bite.

That day he wandered to a place called Black Rock City in the west of the Star Luo Empire, entered a noisy pub, sat in the corner, ordered a cup of the cheapest ale, and listened to the commotion around him.

The Soul Masters were loudly bragging about their recent gains, cursing and complaining about their enemies, or exchanging information with twinkling eyes about where another treasure had been found and where Soul Bone had appeared. At this moment, the hushed conversations of some guys at the table next to him drifted into his ears.

"... Have you heard? Speed Clan, something seems to have happened over there!" A man with a scar on his face said mysteriously.

"Speed Clan? That family full of birdmen? What could happen to them? Didn't they keep hugging Clear Sky Sect and Tang Sect's legs tightly and live a comfortable life?" Another thin man didn't care.

"Thigh hugging? That was before!" Scarface took a sip of wine and wiped his mouth, "I have a cousin who works in Heaven Dou City and is well-informed. He said that Speed Clan is the extremely fast Bai Chenxiang. He seems to have been missing for several months!"

"Missing?" The thin man was stunned for a moment, "Isn't she Titled Douluo? Can she still disappear? Did she go to some secret place to practice again? It's normal for them to disappear in a flash at that speed."

"It's different!" Scarface shook his head, his voice lowered, but his tone was very sure, "There is really no news this time! Speed Clan and Tang Sect are going crazy! It is said that even Clear Sky Sect was alarmed and sent people out to look for her! No one alive, no one dead... bah bah, she just disappeared anyway! The last time someone saw her for sure, it seemed to be Forgotten Gobi in the deserted area to the west of us!"

Kraken held the rough ceramic cup with his fingers and paused almost imperceptibly. The turbid wine in the cup created a circle of extremely fine ripples.

Bai Chenxiang... is missing?

A few months ago, he spent 10,000 Gold Soul Coin and went to Forgotten Gobi, where nothing was shit, and blew seventy-eight pieces of sand from the sky. He found some traces of a fight between her and an underground Soul Beast, and concluded that the winged woman had disappeared long ago. After that, he ate at the "buffet" at the Star Luo Empire for three months and never cared about it again.

According to common sense, at that woman's speed, Tang Sect or Speed Clan should be back in a few days, not to mention a few months. But now, she has actually "disappeared"? She even alerted Clear Sky Sect and Tang Sect to look for her together?

This isn't right.

Kraken took a slow sip of the ale, and the bitter taste of poor quality melted in his mouth. Thoughts were running through his mind. Either, at Forgotten Gobi, she suffered some kind of troublesome injury or curse that affected her speed or even hid her whereabouts. Or, she encountered something else after the fight?

No matter which kind of Titled Douluo is missing, this matter is definitely not a big deal. Speed Clan, Tang Sect, Clear Sky Sect... These forces will definitely take action, send people, and look for clues. Maybe some old guys who usually hide their faces, or Titled Douluo who are strong enough and want to take advantage of the opportunity to sell favors or reap benefits, will also be involved.

The water is getting muddy.

It is easy to fish in muddy water. No, it is in muddy water that it is easy for "big fish" to swim by themselves.

Kraken put down the wine glass, and a few Copper Soul Coin fell gently on the greasy wooden table without making any sound. He stood up, and his black robe swept over the edge of the table, like a moving shadow, quietly blending into the noisy flow of people outside the door and the dust of the street.

Star Luo Empire's Soul Master are very "simple", and they dare to fight for Soul Bone. He has to change places to "wait". Go around the Speed Clan? Or, Tang Sect, check out these places?

There will always be "big shots" who think they are strong enough and capable enough, want to try the waters, or want to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune!

Kraken was walking on the dusty streets of Black Rock City. His ice-blue eyes were under the shadow of his hood and showed no emotion, but the corners of his mouth seemed to be almost imperceptibly curved upward in an extremely subtle, almost non-existent arc.

Black Rock City's dust fell behind him, Kraken's pace was still unhurried, but the direction was clear.

The news of Bai Chenxiang's disappearance, like a drop of water thrown into boiling oil, stirred up violent waves in the Star Luo Empire and even Soul Master World throughout the continent. Ordinary people may only know that Bai Chenxiang of the Speed Clan has not returned for several months, but in some circles, the meaning behind this is enough to keep many people awake at night.

Kraken spent a few days in several underground intelligence points, black market taverns where Soul Master gathered, and areas where Tang Sect and Clear Sky Sect were active. He did not inquire directly, but just listened, occasionally throwing in a few words that seemed unintentional but were actually precise guidance. Soon, a vague but direction gradually emerged.

The reactions of the Clear Sky Sect and Tang Sect were faster and more direct than he expected. Several Soul Douluo level experts who are good at concealment and tracking have secretly sneaked into the west of the Star Luo Empire, with Forgotten Gobi as the center, radiating the search in all directions.

More importantly, Clear Sky Sect directly dispatched strong men within the sect. According to sporadic information from Concealment, it was Fourth Elder of the Clear Sky Sect who personally came to take charge of the situation and was responsible for exploring the most dangerous areas.

Fourth Elder of the Clear Sky Sect! This is also a resounding name. Clear Sky Sect is reclusive, and its elders rarely appear in the outside world. Each one of them has unfathomable strength and powerful existence. Being ranked among the four elders, his cultivation, qualifications, and practical ability are by no means comparable to the ordinary newcomer Titled Douluo.

The aura that Kraken Simulation emits may be able to hide it from most people, but facing an elder Clear Sky Sect who has profound cultivation and experience, the risk of being discovered at close range is extremely high. He must arrive in the area in advance, choose a location that is inconspicuous enough and can observe the whole area, and make a complete disguise.

"Disguise..." Kraken stood on a deserted sand dune, looking at the twisted, slowly squirming gray-yellow area at the junction of heaven and earth in the distance. There was Forgotten Gobi. He looked down at the eternal black robe on his body, and felt the energy essence in his body that was as vast as the abyss, but completely different from the Soul Power system.
