Across the island, people whispered among themselves. But before they could say much, they recalled the status and standing of the person they were discussing and immediately fell silent again.
There were quite a few Nascent Soul Stage elders on Medicine King Island.
Among them, the Four Great Elders who controlled the four great laws held the highest status.
Even though the Island Master stood above all the elders in rank, she had always behaved with utmost respect before the Four Great Elders.
Elder Qian was one of those Four Great Elders.
Such an elder was naturally not someone ordinary people could afford to offend.
As the crowd fell silent and all movement ceased, three cold flashes streaked through the air and leaped into the sky. Powerful divine senses swept across the distance toward Su Shi'er and the others.
The aura they gave off alone was enough to reveal that these three were also Nascent Soul Stage cultivators of Medicine King Island.
However, the three merely observed from the shadows and did not show themselves.
Within the courtyard, Su Shi'er, Li Piaoyue, and the other two, along with Jiang Xueyan and the Fish-Patterned Old Man, bore the greatest pressure. All six were directly imprisoned by an immense force and could barely move.
Jiang Xueyan and the Fish-Patterned Old Man looked even more horrified, as though they had seen something terrifying.
In an instant, Jiang Xueyan raised her voice and screamed sharply.
"Elder Qian, you... you've gone mad!!! Brother Su and this senior are guests of Medicine King Island. They are friends of my master."
"You... how could you recklessly activate Medicine King Island's Forbidden Formation Array and attack them?"
Elder Qian slowly rose into the air as an enormous force descended from the colossal cauldron, settling upon and empowering him.
