“Solving this issue with guesses will not be helpful, we need to identify the origin of these sea creatures and confirm the reasons.”
“Friend Lu, your usual main practice is cultivating Spirit Plants which may make you slightly less powerful than us, but you have the ability to detect abnormalities in the spiritual fish in the sea.
“Here’s the plan, you search around Changfeng Island and see if you can find any other fish that has been attacked and polluted.”
“Zhou and I will patrol the nearby sea areas around Changfeng Island to see if we can find traces of the Demon Envoy or Evil Cultivators.”
“Okay.”
Even though Shi Zhong seems to underestimate him with this task arrangement, Lu Xuan doesn’t mind and is happy to help.
Shi Zhong and Zhou Bing Yu each controlled sword light, speeding low over the sea surface.
Lu Xuan took out the Water Movement Bead from his storage bag, held it in his mouth, and jumped into the sea.
In the deep water, he moved as if he was on flat ground, unlike his playful tone when fishing, he moved quickly approach each first or second-grade sea fish and sea beasts.
He then used the Immaculate Jade on his chest to judge whether the sea fishes have been invaded and polluted based on its reaction.
After circling around Changfeng Island, Lu Xuan came back to shore with a black spiky sea turtle demon beast, and two fish of different species.
These are the three abnormal sea fish and sea beasts he found after long searching.
After waiting for about an hour, Shi Zhong and Zhou Bing Yu each controlled their swords light and returned to the island one after another.
“Friends Shi Dao and Zhou Dao, I searched around Changfeng Island again and found three more polluted demon beasts, have you found anything on your side?”
Both of them shook their heads.
“I searched carefully within 300 li around the island and found no traces of any Demon Envoys or Evil Cultivators.”
“However, since a few more abnormal demon beasts have been discovered, it means that this is not an accident. There is a high chance that a Demon Envoy or Evil Cultivator is lurking on this island.”
Shi Zhong said with a serious face.
Lu Xuan and the others nodded.
“Our backgrounds are similar, all of us have been sent here by our Sects to guard an island, so the safety of the islands we are responsible for is closely related to us.”
“Let’s do this, each of us will be responsible for a region and notify the corresponding forces, asking them to be vigilant and prepared.”
Shi Zhong brought out a large map with detailed information of multiple islands.
Since the islands were vast and hundreds to thousands of miles apart from each other, reporting to them would require their joint efforts.”
“I’ll take this area then.”
Lu Xuan made his choice and selected a region that included Song Family of Kongming Island and Ning Family of Chongning Island.
“Good, in this way, if you find traces of the Demon Envoy, remember to inform me.”
Shi Zhong said seriously.
They both nodded and left one after another.
Upon returning to Kongming Island, Lu Xuan didn’t rush to his courtyard but went to see the Song Family.
“Uncle Lu, you’re back? How was your fishing expedition at sea?”
After receiving the news, Song Yu hurried over to meet Lu Xuan.
He had learned from Song Yun that Lu Xuan was previously invited to fish for sea fish and sea beasts.
“The results are mixed, the good harvest is mine and the bad one is yours.”
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
“I’d like to know what’s wrong, would Uncle Lu please inform us?”
Hearing this from Lu Xuan, Song Yu was a bit anxious and hurriedly asked.
“During fishing, I accidentally discovered several demon beasts that were invaded and polluted by filthy substances, and after investigating nearby, we speculate that there is a high possibility of Demon Envoys or Evil Cultivators lurking on these islands.”
Lu Xuan slowly explained.
“What should we do?”
A trace of worry appeared on Song Yu’s face.
“It’s just a possibility, don’t worry too much.”
“However, we still need to take precautions. From today onwards, you should ensure that the Void Nether Spirit Fish’s habitat is well protected, and try to keep them from wandering far from Kongming Island to avoid getting invaded and polluted.”
“At the same time, regulate the actions of the cultivators within your family and reduce the number of times they go outside to explore.”
“Lastly, be on the lookout for any unusual happenings on Kongming Island. If you discover traces of Evil Cultivators or a Demon Envoy, inform me immediately.”
Lu Xuan commanded.
“Yes, I will ensure that the protection is in place, restrain our people, and carry out regular patrols every day.”
Song Yu felt more at ease after listening to Lu Xuan’s instructions.
“By the way, the factions on the other islands probably don’t know about this yet, could you remind them for me.”
Lu Xuan told Song Yu about the factions under him and added:
“You can leave out the Ning Family of Chongning Island. Considering their deeds with the Invisible Algae, they wouldn’t believe it anyway.”
He casually set a trap for Ning DeShan.
“Yes! We will try our best to keep them in the dark.”
Having the Invisible Algae threat over the Void Nether Spirit Fish that Song Family depended on for survival, Song Yu would love to see the Ning Family take a big hit and quickly agreed.
“That’s good, then I will go back to my courtyard now. If there’s any urgent matter, you may contact me using the Communication Talisman.”
Lu Xuan said to Song Yu before returning to his own courtyard.
The harvest from the auction organized by the Aurora Business Association was sensational.
He won a Tier-3 Rockshell Turtle Egg and a bottle of the Profound Origin Heavy Water, a Tier 3 Spiritual Liquid, he had been longing for.
He made acquaintances with two senior Cultivators from great Sects and his initial impressions were pretty good. Simultaneously, during the fishing process, he caught a young different species of Dragon Carp.
The only unfortunate event was the discovery of traces of Evil Cultivators and a Demon Envoy, which heightened his vigilance.
Although his current strength is close to Foundation Establishment Mid-term, he has many treasures and diverse means of offence that make him one of the highest level fighters in these islands, he still needs to be cautious.
After all, the reputation of Evil Cultivators and Demon Envoys is based on their insidiousness and unpredictability, and no one knows what strange methods they could use.
He carefully considered his future actions.
“First of all, I need to stop fishing.”
“The closer to the outer sea, the higher the danger, and the greater the possibility of meeting Evil Cultivators and Demon Envoys. Those polluted Demon Beasts prove this.”
Although fishing brings him the same sense of achievement as opening a light cluster, Lu Xuan extends safety first and avoid putting himself in danger.
“I will not only stop fishing but also reduce all outward activities, stay in the courtyard cultivating Spirit Plants and raising Spirit Beasts.”
Thought Lu Xuan.
“Of course, if Evil Cultivators or a Demon Envoy invades Kongming Island, I will try to solve them as long as it’s within my capacity.”
Lu Xuan would naturally not forget where his duty lies – to guard Kongming Island, and must ensure the safety of the Cultivators on the island.
However, this must be able preserved his own safety.
“For now, these plans should do, if I discover traces of a Demon Envoys, I’ll deal with it accordingly.”
He said to himself, laying out his actions for the upcoming period.
” I will retreat to my courtyard, ignoring the Demon Envoy or Evil Cultivator.”
He can stay in the courtyard planting Spirit Plants and raising spirit beasts in peace.
