Chapter 428: I Will Assume Office as the Leader of the Great Xia Alliance Today

“What is this?”

Ye Xuan walked out of the spiral and looked up. He instantly saw a boundless vast continent hanging over the remote horizon. It seemed to be existing in another dimension of the world, yet could be seen clearly.

Shrouded in a fog, it looked endless. It was so ancient that it seemed to have witnessed many vicissitudes of life. It appeared to be eternal, hence would never collapse.

“What is that? Is it from another world, too?”

Ye Xuan was very surprised. He did not expect to see the last thing he had seen on the Ancient God Planet again after leaving there.

“The Immortal Ancient Continent!”

At this moment, a creature that looked like a white puppy walked out of Ye Xuan’s Beast Lair and jumped into his arms. It looked at the remote sky where the continent from a different dimension of the world was. Its eyes were shining brilliantly.

“The Immortal Ancient Continent?”

Ye Xuan’s eyes lit up. He looked at the Seal Beast with doubt.

However, the Seal Beast shook its head as a way to tell him it did not know much about the continent, either.

All it knew was that the continent was the centre of the imperial world. It was where numerous big forces were located, and it was also where the Seal Beast was born.

However, some big shot of its clan took the Seal Beast away as soon as it was born. Then soon, some big change happened in that world.

That big shot went missing, and the Seal Beast arrived in this world.

“That is what happened?”

Ye Xuan shook his head regrettably.

Then he shifted his consciousness to open the Tidal Treasure Snail’s Real-Time Map.

He glanced at the map and found his parents were with Lin Shiru at the moment, and they were all safe.

That made him feel relieved.

However, when he glanced at the map again, he found Qi Liangcai and Li Yanting had disappeared just as he had thought.

“Did they go to the Ancient God Planet or a different Secret Realm? Or, did what happened to Wu Tian also happen to them…”

Ye Xuan felt worried.

He extended his hand out to call the Tree of World out.

At the same time, all guards in that valley were still gazing at the sky in shock and feeling astonished.

They even did not see Ye Xuan walk out of the spiral.

Whoosh!

Not until the Tree of World had waved a branch in the wind and taken Ye Xuan into the opening it had created in the air did a guard in the valley vaguely feel he had seen a giant thing flash by.

However, he saw nothing when he had turned his head to look around.

The Tree of World could travel thousands of miles at one go. Therefore, Ye Xuan arrived at Jiangzhou University very soon.

However, Ye Xuan was even more worried after returning to Jiangzhou University.

Because after checking out the whole country through the Tidal Treasure Snail’s Real-Time Map on his way, he found one thing.

He found Qi Liangcai and Li Yanting were not the only two people that had gone missing in the Xia.

Besides them, many people he knew were also missing.

Fang Shenzhou, Fang Xianmin, their wives, and Fang Luotian, Fang Luohong, and Fang Lan were all missing.

It was not normal at all.

Even if they had gone into some Secret Realm or gone to the Ancient God Planet, it was simply impossible that the family had disappeared together.

In addition, Xia Houji and his wife Ling Miaotong were not on the Cerulean Planet, either.

He wondered what had happened to them.

Whoosh!

In front of Ye Xuan’s house, he flashed by and then showed up in front of Lin Shiru, Su Yunmeng, and Ye Guotao immediately.

“Ye Xuan, you are back!”

Lin Shiru walked over to Ye Xuan as soon as she saw him. She was excited and beaming.

The vision a minute ago was too shocking. She could not help but worry about Ye Xuan, but since she had to soothe Su Yunmeng and Ye Guotao, she could not show how she was feeling.

At this moment, seeing Ye Xuan come back, she could no longer restrict her emotions.

“Yeah, I am back.” Ye Xuan smiled at Lin Shiru and grasped her hand.

“Ye Xuan, do you know what that was?”

Su Yunmeng asked Ye Xuan, pointing at the horizon. She was also relieved at the sight of Ye Xuan.

“No, I really don’t.”

Ye Xuan shook his head.

That vision was too shocking. Even he had no idea at all what would follow. Neither did he know where Wu Tian and others had gone and what would happen to them.

“Shiru.”

Looking at Lin Shiru, Ye Xuan said, “Many people have disappeared since the appearance of that continent. Could you ask around and see who those people are?”

“Many people have disappeared?”

Lin Shiru was very surprised. Then something seemed to occur to her. She said immediately, “Do you mean the star-like flowing lights that fell from the sky just now? I saw three of those fall into Jiangzhou University and take three people away.”

“Three people were taken away?” Ye Xuan was surprised. “I know Qi Liangcai and Li Yanting were taken away, but who else?”

“I don’t know his name, either. He is a teacher always wearing a mask. He is a good friend of my eldest brother. Actually, you’ve also seen him.”

“I’ve seen him?”

“Yep. When you were still a student of Jiangzhou University, you did several fights in an ancient arena. That arena is his.”

“It’s him?”

Ye Xuan was struck dumb.

Ring!

Lin Shiru’s cell phone suddenly rang at this moment.

Lin Shiru took her cell phone and answered the call. Wang Tianshan’s voice came right away. “Shiru, bad news. The Eternal Aucuba Tree is missing.”

“What?”

Lin Shiru sounded anxious. Her hand grasping the cell phone trembled.

“The Eternal Aucuba Tree?”

Ye Xuan turned pale, too. He took the cell phone from Lin Shiru. “Mr. Wang, what happened? Is it because of those star lights?”

The Eternal Aucuba Tree left Jiangzhou University for a Secret Realm after the wedding of Ye Xuan and Lin Shiru.

That Secret Realm was not far away from the Tianshan Base, where Wang Tianshan was.

It was exactly the Secret Realm where Lin Shiru’s eldest brother had got trapped.

But to their surprise, even the Eternal Aucuba Tree had disappeared.

Ye Xuan had not expected that, either.

He had thought only some humans had gone missing, so he did not go to check up on the Eternal Aucuba Tree.

However, he knew the soul of Lin Shiru’s father was living in the Eternal Aucuba Tree, so that tree was extremely important for her.

Lin Shiru must be very upset about its disappearance.

“Ye Xuan, you are back?”

Wang Tianshan was dumbfounded when he had heard Ye Xuan’s voice. Then, he answered with a nod, “Yes, it is because of those star lights exactly. One of them fell from the sky and took the Eternal Aucuba Tree away. And…”

He added with hesitation, “I’ve just heard that Fang Shenzhou, his family, Xia Houji and his wife, and some other people from the Xia all disappeared after the incident just now.”

He was very sorrowful while saying that.

The Xia had just started its heyday. However, to everyone’s surprise, such a weird thing suddenly arose.

By then, the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets had got many new Legend-legend-level Beast Tamers since it had got the Sacrifice Spell, so it was rising again. However, the Xia was losing so many strong people at this point. Wang Tianshan was afraid it would be very hard for Xia to go through this crisis.

No matter how talented Ye Xuan was, he would not be able to turn the tide under such circumstances.

“Okay. I see.”

Ye Xuan’s voice was very deep. He talked with Wang Tianshan a little longer and then hung up the call.

“Shiru!”

Then he turned his head to look at Lin Shiru, who was as pale as a ghost at the moment. Hugging her, he said, “Don’t worry. What happened this time is just too odd. It’s not necessarily a bad omen that your father, Qi Liangcai, and others disappeared.”

“As far as I know, all of those missing people had a foreboding that this would happen.”

“Both Qi Liangcai and Li Yanting mentioned this to me.”

“What we need to do now is to deal with the current crisis. When the crisis is over and we have become strong enough, we will be able to find out the truth sooner or later!”

“Yes, I agree!”

Lin Shiru nodded. Looking at Ye Xuan, she said, “Mr. Wang just mentioned that Xia Houji and his wife had gone missing, too. Are you going to assume office as the leader of the Great Xia Alliance now?”

She was not a little girl. She knew sadness would not help at all at this point.

They had to be strong. That was the only way to resolve the problems.

“That’s right!”

Ye Xuan nodded. Looking into the distance, he said, “It has been a long time. I really should do it now.”

He had been considering assuming office as the leader of the Great Xia Alliance in thirty days, but this incident had changed his mind.

He was going to assume office right away!

He would do it this day!

He did not want to wait anymore, not for even one second.

So many changes had happened in this world.

He had to become stronger as quickly as possible.
