140 The second lost group. (1/2)
Fang Ying and the others weren't idiots, seeing the thousands of blocks that filled the entire room, how could they not understand what purpose they served? Tian Zheng was the one who had the most experience with the Void Born, so his lips couldn't help but tremble slightly upon seeing all these opened cells.
”All these... it can't be...”
Tian Zheng's face paled and he lost the grand demeanor of the future Tian clan patriarch, his fingers twitching incessantly.If all these Void Born managed to make it out onto their planet, and they weren't found in time, there was no telling what sort of havoc they would wreak. Even worse, they would move on and spread throughout the rest of the universe, it would be an utter catastrophe. Fang Ying also understood the severity of the situation, her brows furrowing as she swept the blocks with a swift gaze.
”Check all the blocks, we need to know how many have actually escaped. We should also send out a message to anyone we can, the more people learn of it the better. Yang'er, you probably don't have a lot of people you can inform, but you can at least send a message to Yuan Peng, he should be able to spread it further.”
There was no one more familiar with Li Yang's mostly isolated personality than Fang Ying, it was to the point that she would be surprised if he had anyone other than her, Zhao Feng, and Yuan Peng to contact in a situation like this. And even then, the only reason he could contact Yuan Peng was due to the fact that Yuan Peng had been the one to hand over something that the two could use to communicate.
Li Yang and the others nodded their heads and the four of them then split into two groups, just in case there were still some Void Born that remained here. Zhao Feng raised his arms in defeat before anyone had to mention how the groups would be split, he knew that he didn't really have a choice in the matter.
”I get it, I get it, I'll bring along the Tian clan boy, you two run along on your little escapades. But I swear, if you end up raising more hell in the two seconds that I leave you unsupervised, I'll have to smack the both of you.”

Li Yang and Fang Ying simply rolled their eyes in response while Tian Zheng seemed somewhat against being described as a boy, but now really wasn't the time for him to protest, so he remained silent. The two groups then headed in different directions, Li Yang and Fang Ying checking the right half of the prison while Zhao Feng and Tian Zheng checked the left half.
Li Yang and Fang Ying walked up to the block closest to them, peering in through the hole while Li Yang traced the edges of it with his fingers. The inside of the block was also covered with minute runes that formed the image of countless chains coiling around each other. The inside of the block was completely empty, an apple-sized indent smashed into the back wall of the block. Li Yang frowned slightly as he looked at the inside of the cell, entering it and crouching in the top right corner of it, clicking his tongue.
”It left behind a tiny drop of slime, it's probably worried about getting killed and wanted to leave behind some insurance.”
Li Yang pointed at a drop of slime so small that it was hard to see, especially since the inside of the prison was so dark. Li Yang didn't touch the drop of slime, he simply created a flicker of golden flames in front of him and had it reduce the slime to ashes. While he was incinerating the slime, Fang Ying traced the edges of the hole, inspecting the empty prison with slightly narrowed eyes.
”Have you noticed it?”
