The Deathbirth Society's ships conducted a large-scale search of the area around Crystal Island.
Yang Yi had expected this as well.
Several times, the Deathbirth Society's ships even brushed past the Nightmare Star, the closest coming within just a few dozen meters.
But they discovered nothing. The Treasured ship equipment, the Twilight Veil, had done its job, rendering the Nightmare Star completely invisible and blending it into its surroundings.
