Chapter 489: Wang Family’s Forbidden Place

The Star Regional Lake was a high tier lake, and could at least be ranked in the top five, if not top three, in the region. Its coverage reached millions of miles, which was way bigger than the whole of South Rudra Region.
Being a huge lake, there were many islands present in it. They were like stars in the sky, as one could spot them every now and then constantly.
Wavy Wind Island was a small island that was ten thousand miles away from Snake Island. There were millions of humans on that island, so it was rather busy.
A population in the millions was rather a lot for a small island like this.
Inside one of the fancy restaurants, Ye Chen sat next to the windows and drank tea. He wanted to obtain some information from the warriors' chatters.
”Did you hear? Everyone in the Wang family from the Snake Island near the Black Dragon Emperor has been killed…every single one of them! Even the dogs and animals had been killed. It was like the top of the Snake Island had been destroyed altogether.”
”Entire family! Who can be so brutal? They were at least a rank 9 family after all. How could it happen so easily? I heard that in recent years, two young warriors had emerged in the Wang family who were both at the Astral Reaching Realm. It would take more than a rank 8 martial school to take them both down.”
”You still haven't traveled enough after all. The Wang family is powerful for us, but to those of who are truly mighty, they were still nothing but ants. It would not have taken them much effort to kill them all.”
”…”
Ye Chen did not hear what they were talking about next, because he had already left the place.
In the sky, Ye Chen rode on his flying puppet at ten times the speed of sound.
”Who did they piss off to get killed? How is Wang Snake now?” Many questions flew past Ye Chen's mind. He did not expect to get this kind of news just as he was about to go there. Although he was not that close to the Wang family or Wang Snake, they had still given him three three-thousand-years old Blood Sun Flowers, and he had protected Wang Snake as well.
Without knowing why, Ye Chen had thought of that group of men in hats. He did not even know why he would have this kind of thought.
”Wang Snake, when I have met you before, you did not look like someone with a short life. You should still be alive, right?” If he had died, then there would be literally nothing left for their family. Ye Chen was very sure about Wang Snake's potential. He was able to know a lot from Tuo Baku, and Wang Snake was even slightly younger than him
Shoo!
The flying puppet shot across the sky, fast like a flashing light.
…
From far away, Ye Chen was able to see the Snake Island which had lost the top level, as if it had been shaved off with a blade. But, looking from far away, it was more like it had been done by a claw than a blade.
There were a lot of warriors on that not-so-smooth edge.
”You did not see what had happened that day. A group of men in white robes and hats surrounded the Wang family and killed everyone, even the children. Before they left, the leading man waved his hand and the whole top level just disappeared!”
”So brutal! Leaving not even corpses behind.”
”Ah! This is a world of power. If a powerful warrior wants to kill you, you will die without a chance to argue.”
”Eh? A peak level Late Astral Reaching Realm warrior is here.”
A lot of people had noticed Ye Chen, who had a powerful qi.
Ye Chen had heard them, especially the description of the men in hats. If it were no coincidence, then those people he had run into in the Blue Rock town would be the ones who had done all this. It was not a baseless conjecture — firstly, although there were other warriors who liked to dress in white robe and hats as well, having a group of them at the time place would be rare. Secondly, the leader of the men had the Blue Eyed White Wolf bloodline, and the Wang family had many snakes bloodline; there must be some kind of connection for sure.
Therefore, Ye Chen was quite certain that it was them who had killed everyone in the Wang family.
”So tricky! That group of men in white robes did not look like they would be easy to take on, especially the leading one… He seemed to be just as powerful as Yu Youtian.” Ye Chen frowned seriously. He knew how powerful Yu Youtian was. Perhaps if it were just that leading man in hat, he might not have worried this much. But, with that group of them, he would have to be extra careful. Plus, people with this kind of special bloodline would have even more powerful battling power. Ye Chen did not have one hundred percent confidence in winning against that leading man alone, not to mention the group together.
”Enough about this for now. Let me search for some clues.”
The centre of his eyebrows raised up a bit as he secretly released his soul power.
Thirty miles!
Fifty miles!
Eighty miles!
Ninety miles!
He continued to push his soul power down onto and under the Snake island until he could not push it any further.
”Eh? There is a slight space vibration that I can sense. It is weak, but it is present there nevertheless.”
His expression changed, and he rushed to arrive onto the peak of the snake island so that his soul power could dive down even further. After he realized that there was nothing suspicious, he dove down into the bottom of the lake.
”Is it a transporting stone door over there?”
