As the Sun God Palace drove over, the middle-aged man, the pirate group leader, came back to his senses and quickly shouted at his people. "Hurry up. Let everyone go."
"Go! Go!" All the pirates shouted anxiously and started driving their ships away.
Inside the Sun God Palace, a handsome young man leaned comfortably in his chair while enjoying an exotic fruit a beautiful maidservant served him.
He seemed to notice a commotion below and asked. "What happened down there?"
The beautiful maidservant beside him glanced outside briefly and said. "It's a bunch of pirates. They were probably robbing people earlier and now fleeing."
She turned to look at the young man and asked. "What should we do, Young Master?"
The young man, Yang Zhen, waved his hand casually. "Let them disappear."
The beautiful maidservant, Dong Xiu, smiled sweetly. "As your wish, Young Master."
As her voice fell, several rays of sunlight shot out of the Sun God Palace and blasted toward everyone below, including Yun Lintian's group.
The expression of everyone changed drastically, and most of them subconsciously cried out in horror when they saw this scene.
"That bastard." Liao Fang uttered coldly and flicked his wrist, throwing a bunch of blue beads toward the incoming sunrays.
With a bang, the beads exploded, forming a giant water dome covering everyone.
BOOM!!
The sunrays smashed into the water dome and exploded directly. The impact caused everyone under the dome to fly away, but their life was pretty much safe.
However, the pirates weren't lucky as they were too far from the water dome, and the powerful sunrays killed them directly.
"Hmm?" Dong Xiu frowned slightly as her Divine Sense firmly fixated on Liao Fang.
"What is it?" Yang Zhen glanced at her and asked curiously.
"There's an extraordinary figure among them. He could defend against our sun cannon." Dong Xiu replied softly.
"Oh?" Yang Zhen was curious and spread his Divine Sense out. When he saw Liao Fang, a smile appeared on his lips. "It turned out to be Brother Shui. Please forgive me for my rudeness earlier."
His voice resounded from the palace, and everyone below could hear it.
Liao Fang's face darkened as he responded. "Brother Yang is surely domineering as usual."
"Since we are going in the same direction, why don't you come with me, Brother Shui?" Yang Zhen asked.
"Forget it. You can leave." Liao Fang waved his hand dismissively.
"Alright. I'll be ahead first." Yang Zhen chuckled and signaled his servant to drive the palace forward.
"Is he the elder young master of the Clear Spring God Emperor?" Dong Xiu asked curiously.
"It's him." Yang Zhen replied casually. "This man has a weird hobby. He likes to drift around and make friends with random strangers."
The Clear Spring God Emperor was one of the Northern Divine Region's God Emperors. His strength was mysterious, but many believed he was only second to the Everlasting Soul God Emperor.
Dong Xiu curled her lips and said. "He's so kind."
Yang Zhen chuckled and offered no further comment.
Watching the Sun God Palace drift away, everyone at the scene returned to their senses and cupped their fists toward Liao Fang. "Thank you for saving our lives."
Liao Fang waved his hand and said. "All of you better go now. Be careful on the way."
Everyone glanced at each other and drove the ships away after expressing their gratitude to Liao Fang again.
Liao Fang turned to look at Yun Lintian and scratched his head in embarrassment. "Well, I have lied to you earlier. My actual name is Shui Fang."
Yun Lintian smiled and said. "It's fine. Everyone has their own secret."
Shui Fang nodded slightly and asked. "Brother Ye has also concealed your strength, right? You didn't seem to bother against the earlier attack."
Yun Lintian shook his head and said. "How could I not bother? I planned to use my life-saving card earlier, but Brother Shui was faster. Thank you for saving my life."
Shui Fang took a deep look at Yun Lintian as if he didn't believe it.
"Let's go, shall we?" Yun Lintian asked and controlled the ship toward the destination.
Shui Fang stared at Yun Lintian's back and muttered to himself. "Look like I have found my peers."
With that, he quickly drove the ship to follow suit.
***
The crowd around the Sea of the Stars was growing bigger and bigger, and many people from the upper realms had also joined the scene.
At this moment, the Sun God Palace appeared from a distance, and everyone was surprised to see it. They didn't expect to see people from the God Realm here.
"Why did he send his son over?" In the void, Kong Hui looked at the Sun God Palace in surprise. He naturally recognized the person inside with a glance, and the "he" in his words was referred to the Sun God Emperor.
"Have you heard about him recently?" Jiang Taiyu asked.
Kong Hui shook his head. "He has never appeared in public in the past twenty thousand years. His injury wasn't light back then."
Jiang Taiyu touched his chin thoughtfully. "This is strange. He should have recovered a long time ago with the Sun God's power. Maybe something really happens to him."
Kong Hui frowned slightly and said nothing.
At this moment, the Sun God Palace stopped in the starry sky above, and no further movement could be seen. It seemed the people inside had no intention of showing themselves.
Gradually, people began to shift their focus elsewhere and no longer paid attention to the Sun God Palace.
A few hours passed unknowingly, and Yun Lintian finally arrived at the scene, with Shui Fang closely behind.
"So beautiful." Shui Fang exclaimed in admiration as he looked at the river of myriad stars in the distance ahead.
Meanwhile, Yun Lintian stared attentively at the Sea of the Stars without saying anything. However, his heart became restless at the moment as he felt a long-lost connection between him and the relic again. Undoubtedly, the Light Pole was inside this place!
"You're here, Brother Shui. May I invite you for a drink?" Suddenly, Yang Zhen's voice resounded, and everyone turned to look at Shui Fang curiously.
"Bastard." Shui Fang cursed in a low voice. This Yang Zhen obviously did it on purpose to make him the center of attention.
While everyone was looking at Shui Fang, Yu Wuying's gaze firmly fixated on Yun Lintian as if she had seen through his disguise…
