Xu Sheng was somewhat puzzled, "Send people to Aquipeia Forest to search for those from Xingluo Empire? Why would Your Holiness do such a thing?"
Yueguan and Gui Mei exchanged a glance, seeming to realize the former hadn't heard the news...
The former quickly reminded, "Xu Sheng, don't you know that ever since the people of Xingluo Empire entered Aquipeia Forest, there hasn't been a trace of news for a week?"
Xu Sheng's brow furrowed slightly, "I didn't expect such a thing to have happened, I thought the Xingluo Empire team had already reached Tiandou Empire Palace!"
This matter, he indeed just found out now!
Xu Sheng quickly began to ponder...
"A week...without any news, either the people of Xingluo Empire encountered an accident and were completely wiped out"
"Or, they got lost in Aquipeia Forest"
Yueguan's mouth twitched slightly, "Xu Sheng, the latter possibility is extremely unlikely, isn't it? For the mighty team from Xingluo Empire to lose direction in Aquipeia Forest is simply unbelievable"
Perhaps, this matter might even become a laughing stock?
But Xu Sheng shook his head and earnestly said, "Nothing is impossible, since the last interaction between the Tiandou Imperial Family and the Xingluo Imperial Family, it's been unknown how long, the environment of Aquipeia Forest cannot remain unchanged"
"If following the old route, they are very likely to get lost"
"Moreover, the most important thing is, Aquipeia Forest has already gathered numerous soul beasts and abyssal creatures, their mutual slaughter would greatly damage the surrounding environment!"
Gui Mei responded with a serious expression, "Xu Sheng...based on what you've said, then indeed the people from Xingluo Empire might have gotten lost"
"But if that's the case, it's a good thing, at least they weren't wiped out!"
This represents that the cooperation between Tiandou Empire and Xingluo Empire could still be salvaged!
Xu Sheng nodded slightly, then indicated, "Hmm...then Elder Gui, Elder Ju, you go ahead, I will discuss this with Your Holiness myself"
Gui Mei and Yueguan didn't say much more, nodded, and quickly left...
Then, Xu Sheng directly entered the grand hall...
Upon his arrival, Bi Bidong was somewhat surprised, "Xu Sheng, you've returned"
Xu Sheng pursed his lips, "Hmm, just came back, I heard the news from Elder Gui and Elder Ju"
Bi Bidong nodded slightly, "Is that so, then do you think what I'm doing is right?"
Xu Sheng responded with words of affirmation, "What Your Holiness is doing aligns with my thoughts, if the people from Xingluo Empire encountered an accident, then certainly the cooperation between Tiandou Empire and Xingluo Empire would be interrupted"
"It could even exacerbate conflicts, causing both sides to go to war without considering the consequences!"
"If that happens, abyssal creatures will likely be the ultimate victors!"
Bi Bidong breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, I thought the same way, so I let Gui Mei and Yueguan send people to search, but even though I don't want to admit it, the chances of finding them are slim"
Aquipeia Forest is so vast, even if we send all of Martial Soul Hall's people to search, it would take at least several days to scour it!
Of course, it is impossible for me to issue such an order at such a great cost!
Xu Sheng glanced at her, speculating, "I think the people of Xingluo Empire should not have perished yet"
Bi Bidong was somewhat surprised, "Why do you say that? Did you enter Aquipeia Forest when you previously left?"
Xu Sheng shook his head, "No, I just think that people from the royal household should all have something like a Life Plate, and once someone perishes, it will be discovered immediately"
"And until now, the royal family of Xingluo Empire hasn't made any move, which means Davis and others most likely aren't dead"
Though he couldn't be certain, he had this premonition!
Bi Bidong, hearing him, believed somewhat, "Hmm, what you say makes sense, the royal family of Xingluo Empire dares to send their most valued Prince so easily, perhaps there really are means to ascertain life or death"
"But, if the people of Xingluo Empire indeed faced an accident, what do you plan to do?"
Xu Sheng sighed, "If such an accident indeed happens, then...we may need to rely on Sea God's Island"
Bi Bidong was a bit puzzled, "Sea God's Island?? That's quite a distance from the Continent, why rely on there?"
Especially the residents and guest elders of Sea God's Island, they hold a grudge against the Continent, how could they possibly lend a hand!
"Don't look at the residents of Sea God's Island having no goodwill toward the Continent, but if the human world truly faces a crisis, they won't sit idly by"
Bi Bidong frowned slightly, "You trust the people of Sea God's Island?"
She still couldn't understand where the other party's confidence came from!
Xu Sheng denied this, "No, I trust the Great Priest Poseidon of Sea God's Island"
Bi Bidong didn't continue to argue, "Alright, since you say so, I will also temporarily trust in Sea God's Island"
Xu Sheng's expression remained unchanged, "Your Holiness trusting me is my honor!"
Bi Bidong also smiled, "Even if I wanted to distrust you, it's difficult, from every word you say, I sense no deception"
"Of course, more than that, it's your ability to foresee the future"
Upon hearing this, Xu Sheng's eyes revealed a trace of complexity, "Foresee the future? That's only because I'm not from this parallel world!"
It's unknown how long it has been since I left the world I was once in!
Whether that world changed due to my departure!
Bi Bidong noticed his emotional shift and asked curiously, "Xu Sheng, you looked very troubled just now, were you reminiscing about..."
The former didn't deny it and openly admitted, "Hmm, it's been a long time since I came to this world, I do miss my original world somewhat"
Bi Bidong too became intrigued, "Was the original world so enchanting to you?"
She wanted to know about the future world too, had she led Martial Soul Hall to dominate the entire Continent?
Xu Sheng explained, "It's not about enchantment, that world...to be accurate, is far from safe compared to this world, of course, without the intervention of abyssal creatures"
Bi Bidong's eyes burned with interest, "If so, why don't you try staying? In this world!"
If he could dismiss the thought of leaving, with his help, Martial Soul Hall dominating the Continent would be a breeze?
Xu Sheng was stunned for a moment, "Stay? I have thought about it, but...this is not the place I should stay"
"Because of me, this world will experience many inexplicable events"
He had never forgotten the fact that tens of thousands of years, millions of years ago, he transmigrated from that place to this novel world!
That place, called Blue Star!
