Following Andong Ling's orders, the An Family launched a very strict worldwide manhunt, targeting Ye Feng, who was still treasure hunting at the seabed.
With such intensity in their search, once Ye Feng leaves the sea area and appears in sight, he is very likely to be discovered by the An Family, which would then launch a capture operation.
Moreover, this was because Annie made such a request, Annie being Andong Ling's beloved granddaughter. To fulfill Annie's demand, Andong Ling extended the mission indefinitely, as if he wouldn't rest until Ye Feng was caught.
Within the An Family, due to the long absence of news about Ye Feng, Annie appeared incredibly anxious. She was truly afraid that Ye Feng would vanish from her world, never to be found again.
In fact, Annie's motive was very clear: she wanted to be with Ye Feng forever, caring about nothing else. To achieve this dream, she even resorted to becoming a villain, using despicable methods to try to obtain Ye Feng.
