Suppressing the turmoil in his heart, Bai Ya finally realized that he had seriously underestimated Li Yu.

Li Yu's words completely disrupted his original plan.

In his original plan, he also wanted to use Li Yu's help to avoid being hunted by Xingjun, then go to Jincheng, and indirectly try to contact Zhou Xiaopeng, seeking a balance between Zhou Zhenbei and Li Yu, and looking for a way to survive.

But Bai Ya never expected that Li Yu's strength had grown stronger and stronger, and his methods were even more ruthless. He had already kidnapped Zhou Xiaopeng without saying a word!

That's Zhou Zhenbei's son! Bai Ya sighed inwardly again.

Now that Li Yu had prepared the two most crucial "materials," he had no way out and no reason to refuse.

So Bai Ya readily agreed:

“In that case, Li Yu Xingjun only needs to find a place, and I will set up the venue so that you can activate your ability immediately…” Bai Ya looked at the little infant spirit beside Li Yu: “Then I will restore its life and revive it.”

Upon hearing that he still had a chance to come back to life, the little infant spirit's eyes lit up, and it began to circle around Li Yu frantically.

Bai Ya paused, then suddenly lowered his posture, looked at Li Yu, and added softly:

"After this is done, I wonder if Li Yuxingjun would consider that there's still room for maneuver in this matter..."

A sudden pressure descended, abruptly cutting off the conditions he was about to state.

Li Yu stared at the white crow, sensing the infant spirit's joy at hearing that it was about to come back to life. After a moment, he finally suppressed his killing intent, and the flames on the phoenix bow went out.

"Alright. As long as you can successfully exchange your life for mine, I'll let you go."

Upon hearing Li Yu's reply, Bai Ya breathed a sigh of relief. After all, Li Yu had once said that he would definitely kill him, and the scene of being chased by arrows still appeared in his nightmares.

"Is there anything else you need to prepare?" Li Yu continued to ask.

"No." Bai Ya shook his head. Both of his main targets were under Li Yu's control, so he didn't need to make any extra preparations.

Sensing the energy emanating from the infant spirit, a mixture of longing and anxiety, Li Yu no longer hesitated, her tone urgent and leaving no room for delay:

"Then what are we waiting for? Come with me now, back to Kangcheng!"

After speaking, Li Yu's gaze swept towards the star array beneath Bai Ya's feet, which had not yet completely dissipated. This was undoubtedly the fastest way to move.

Bai Ya seemed to have guessed Li Yu's intention and shook his head:

"I'm sorry, I've never been to Kangcheng, and there are no sea monsters near Kangcheng, so I can't locate it."

Just then, Lu Fan's cold voice broke in:

"How about having a wind-elemental awakened one lead the way and escort them?"

Lu Fan's figure appeared not far away, and the rain automatically avoided him.

As a Star Lord, Lu Fan could not possibly fail to detect Bai Ya's arrival, as well as Li Yu's undisguised aura and actions.

Seeing Lu Fan appear silently, Bai Ya's heart tightened, but she remained calm and took the initiative to speak:

“Lord Lu Fan, my trip is not to make an enemy of Zhongzhou, nor is it aimed at you. I am only here to settle a personal matter with Lord Li Yu. Once it is settled, I will leave immediately.”

Lu Fan also noticed how much Li Yu valued that ghost. He said nothing more, but gave Bai Ya a cold glance, the warning in his eyes was self-evident.

"Wind-based escort?" Li Yu frowned; traveling back to Kangcheng was simply too slow.

Such an important matter could easily go wrong if it dragged on, and even riding Little Black felt too slow.

Li Yu suddenly noticed something and looked down at the star array at Bai Ya's feet, which had not yet completely dissipated:

"How many people can your formation teleport at most? Can this sea beast be teleported along with it?" He pointed to the enormous figure bound by golden threads next to the white raven.

Although Bai Ya didn't understand why Li Yu was so insistent on bringing the sea beasts, he still answered:

“My star array is different from ordinary space teleportation capabilities and formations. As long as it is within the star array, there is theoretically no limit to what can be teleported or how much can be teleported. I am confident in this.”

His Star Array technique originates from the legacy of ancient awakened beings and can only be activated when combined with his own abilities, naturally giving him extraordinary confidence.

Hearing Bai Ya say this, Li Yu no longer hesitated:

"Alright! Prepare to activate the star array immediately!"

He immediately turned and left, his movements incredibly swift.

Bai Ya was taken aback. Preparing a star array now? He hadn't had time to explain some limitations of the star array.

However, since Li Yu had spoken, Bai Ya naturally dared not be negligent.

He pressed his hands down, and the star array beneath his feet, which was about to dissipate, lit up again. The complex and profound lines quickly extended and reorganized, and as the light flowed, a more stable and larger teleportation star array was set up in an instant.

Lu Fan looked at Bai Ya coldly. He was ready to take action if Bai Ya tried to escape, clearly showing that he had no trust in Bai Ya whatsoever.

Li Yu woke up the dozing Xiao Hei, pulled up the still somewhat dazed Fan Meng, and then quickly rushed back.

After placing Xiao Hei and Fan Meng in the formation, he casually picked up the heavy sea beast wrapped in golden threads.

After dragging the sea beast into the star formation, Li Yu turned around and quickly said to Lu Fan:

"The situation is urgent. You can deal with those people from the Longevity Sect yourself. I don't have time to stay here."

Seeing Li Yu's urgency, Lu Fan nodded: "Okay, I'll handle things here. Be careful on the road."

He spoke succinctly, his gaze sweeping over Bai Ya again, the implication being that Li Yu should be wary.

“Let’s go to Kangcheng,” Li Yu said.

Only then did Bai Ying finally have time to remind him, and she said again hesitantly:

“Lord Li Yuxing, although the star array is complete, as I just said, I have never been to Kangcheng before, and there are no sea beasts nearby, so... the star array cannot locate Kangcheng.”

With a helpless expression, Bai Ya offered a solution: "Why don't we teleport to the place closest to Kangcheng first, and then take a detour there?"

Li Yu ignored Bai Ya's reminder, closed his left eye, and when he opened it again, it burst forth with dazzling golden light!

With the opening of his golden eyes, everything in his vision was composed of countless threads of cause and effect.

He accurately detected the core "threads" of the star array beneath his feet. At the same time, in the distant Kangcheng City Lord's Mansion, the "threads" of the throne, which were closely connected to his aura, also clearly appeared in his golden eyes.

"Connect!" Li Yu whispered to himself.

He used his golden eyes to manipulate the threads, forcibly and precisely grafting the positioning threads of the star array onto the coordinate threads of the Kang City Lord's throne!

"Buzz—!"

The star array emitted a humming sound as if it could not bear the strain, and its light flickered violently!

In an instant, Bai Ya's expression changed drastically, as he clearly felt the feedback from the star array.

A specific coordinate that he had never set foot in, or even been able to perceive before, was forcibly inserted into the star array, and the star array structure actually maintained its stability under the intervention of some higher-level force!

'What...what kind of ability is this?!'

Bai Ya was shocked. He had never encountered this situation since he learned how to use the Star Array technique!
