A few months ago, Ao Zhen used the Blood Essence Stone collected in Jiangnan to unlock several Youyun Jellyfish. As the master of the Divine Path Style, Chen Qing would be able to possess the abilities of those who joined the Divine Path Style, including the powerful tracking and hiding abilities of the Youyun Jellyfish.
Even so, Chen Qing couldn't find a single trace.
Could such methods be used on a three-month-old baby?
Chen Qing's heart darkened. This was something even Kagura, who had retained her memories, couldn't do. Samsara meant that no matter how talented one was, physical limitations still existed. A three-month-old baby couldn't do it, no matter how powerful the reincarnation was.
That leaves only one possibility.
We have foreign aid!
A group of outside helpers had been waiting here for a long time. They found an opportunity to take away those reincarnated people from the West and also sealed the Underworld here.
He had been targeted for a long time.
"My lord?" Wei Gongcheng's heart skipped a beat when he saw Chen Qing's slightly gloomy expression. He rarely saw Chen Qing like this. This matter was probably more serious than he had imagined.
"Thank you all for your help. It's nothing serious, so please go back and rest. Where is the witch doctor? I'll go check on him."
" King of Qin Highness, can you save Lord Lich?" the middle-aged man beside him asked hurriedly.
The clan chief immediately rebuked, "How dare you be so rude!"
"It's alright." Chen Qing waved his hand. "I'll do my best, but I can't guarantee I can save them."
"Thank you so much!" The clan chief quickly changed his tune, and everyone around him also looked grateful.
Chen Qing observed this without speaking. Although the local natives had temporarily submitted, they clearly trusted their own people more, and the status of the witch doctor remained very high.
Once outside, Chen Qing first dismissed the others, then spoke to Wei Gongcheng privately via telepathy, "Things have become complicated."
"My lord, what exactly happened?" Wei Gongcheng asked, frowning.
"Someone has plotted against me. Among the Reincarnator brought here, there are very important figures, whose importance probably exceeds my imagination. They even went so far as to seal the Underworld here to hide this secret. They are a group of people who are even more dangerous than the Ancient Demon of Cloud Capital."
While on the ship Wei Gongcheng heard Chen Qing explain the situation in Cloud Capital. He never expected that the legendary Warlock Dynasty was actually established with the support of a group of demons, and that the so-called most brilliant era of human sorcerers was a complete deception from beginning to end.
The thought that those insects might be lurking around him at any moment sent chills down his spine, a feeling of fear he had when his brothers were replaced by puppets.
And now, Chen Qing is actually saying that there is something more dangerous than the Ancient Demon on this island.
"My lord, shall we leave here first and wait for the army to arrive before making further plans?"
"I'm afraid it's too late," Chen Qing shook his head.
Upon hearing this, Wei Gongcheng immediately sensed his surroundings warily, but he did not detect any danger.
"There was no ambush; those people should have left."
"Left?" Wei Gongcheng was taken aback. "Sealed the Underworld and left?"
In his view, sealing away the Underworld should be an extremely troublesome act, right? Was it really necessary just to take away a few children? But in the next instant, he probably understood.
"They were trying to hide the children's whereabouts?"
Chen Qing nodded. Wei Gongcheng was the earliest Underworld. Having served for so long, he must understand how the Underworld works. Anyone who Samsara in the Underworld once will have their whereabouts recorded there, like a diary. This is why there are very few cases of rebellion among the lower ranks in the Divine Path Style Underworld.
What you do will be recorded in the Underworld, but only if you have Samsara at least once.
Tian Heng and his group were outsiders who had not yet undergone the Samsara in the Underworld, which gave them the opportunity to act. Normally, after three generations, the Divine Path Style Kingdom would be a perfect system that could largely prevent wrongful convictions, because everything you do is recorded and you cannot escape it.
This design was not created by Chen Qing, but by the original chief designer, whose ideal Divine Path Nation was such a perfect kingdom.
This matter has never been publicized to the outside world. Even many clerks in the Underworld are unaware of it. The register is kept by the Lord of the Underworld. In order to prevent it from being leaked, no outsiders know about it except for the Shen Family family and the great Lords of the Underworld like Wei Gongcheng.
Since this kind of thing will be recorded throughout one's entire life, there's no need to publicize it immediately.
The fact that this group of people, who were making arrangements overseas, knew about this setup almost completely confirmed Chen Qing's conjecture.
Those guys behind the scenes have finally made their move!
Only that group of people knew this secret and chose to seal the Underworld, because only by sealing the Underworld could Chen Qing not find out where those children had gone.
But at this moment, Chen Qing had a question: what was so important about those reincarnated Westerners?
Theoretically speaking, if it's so important, why bring people in through your own channels?
The fact that they can set up a presence here, and possess such considerable power, means that group of people have a way to get in. If that's the case, why go through their own channels? Wouldn't that alert them?
If one wants to infiltrate their own Divine Path Style kingdom, it shouldn't be difficult to sneak in first, then disguise themselves as a commoner and blend into Jiangnan as a refugee, right?
With the large influx of people into Jiangnan, wouldn't it be incredibly easy for an organization like this to infiltrate?
Why make it so complicated?
Chen Qing's thoughts raced, considering all the possibilities, but he ultimately came to only one conclusion: the other party had to use his passage to fully enter this world, otherwise, problems would definitely arise.
Who exactly is this person so important?
Who were the people who came to meet that guy?
Why choose this time?
There are too many mysteries to count.
"My lord, since it's to conceal your whereabouts, it means you don't want to be investigated by me, which also means those people can't do anything to you, right?" Wei Gongcheng immediately judged.
Chen Qing remained silent. Theoretically, that was true; such a roundabout approach was only taken when there was no other way to deal with him. If they had overwhelming power, they could simply ambush him after he landed on the island and take him down. So why not do that?
Not enough strength?
No.
Chen Qing felt it wasn't that simple.
Before going to Cloud Capital, his strength had not yet broken through to the King Level. If it were a very powerful force, they would not be unable to defeat him unless they could see through all the intelligence and knew that he had made a major breakthrough in Cloud Capital, which is why they were going to such lengths to avoid him.
Chen Qing thought it was unrealistic. There weren't many important figures going to Cloud Capital, and only Ziyue knew the extent of his power. It couldn't be that Ziyue had betrayed him, could it?
Therefore, it is more likely that this group of people intended to avoid him from the very beginning.
Since they're not afraid of me but are avoiding me, they must have something on their mind. But do I have anything that they could possibly want?
Chen Qing could only think of one thing: the Jiangnan he had painstakingly built, and his Divine Path Style kingdom.
Those people are different from ordinary people who want to occupy Jiangnan. Ordinary people who want to occupy Jiangnan only see the good things about Jiangnan, but they don't know that the current state of Jiangnan is all thanks to the Divine Path Style. Just occupying the land will not allow them to obtain all the essence. But those who know the information are different.
Those people must know the benefits of Divine Path Style.
" Ziyue... they're in danger." Having considered all the details, Chen Qing came to this final conclusion.
" Lord Ziyue?" Wei Gongcheng was taken aback. "Why?"
"They deliberately created an opening, letting me find this place, just to separate me," Chen Qing said, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath. "They... want to take away the Divine Path Style!!"
