"Netherblood Island happens to neighbor Nine-Dragon Island, and Nine-Dragon Island is now a gathering place for wind and storm. Our sect would therefore like to ask the Sky-Supporting Tribe to investigate and inform us as soon as possible. Would the Sky-Supporting High Priest be willing to help?"
As she finished, Tianxin Yunlan gazed at Xiao Ying with bright, beautiful eyes. Where was the slightest hint of someone asking a favor? This was plainly a tactful warning. She all but told Xiao Ying to hurry back, or Nine-Dragon Island would be in danger!
"Phew..."
Xiao Ying exhaled deeply. His grave, somber expression suddenly eased, and he replied with a smile, "Of course. It's no more than lifting a hand, hardly a favor! Still, I truly must thank your sect!"
The Heavenly Heart Sect called it a request for help, but in truth, it was a well-intentioned warning to Xiao Ying.
With forbidden lands lying between them, travel between the Endless Sea and Heavenfall Sea was extremely inconvenient, and communication between the Two Seas was difficult. Xiao Ying, both the lord of Nine-Dragon Island and the Sky-Supporting High Priest, had received no word of the upheaval on Nine-Dragon Island, yet Heavenheart Island already knew. Naturally, this supposed favor was meaningless-merely an excuse!
What worried Xiao Ying most was not Netherblood Island. It was only a neighboring island, after all, and with the Dragon Mulberry Patriarch and countless demonic beasts around, it could not stir up much trouble in the short term. Rather, Tianxin Yunlan's hint about wind and storm gathering on Nine-Dragon Island meant the island was now in a dangerous situation.
Apart from the Dragon Mulberry Patriarch, Nine-Dragon Island now had only Witch King Jin Yan and six Great Witches left. The cultivation of the other tribespeople was not high enough
