The development of the Martial Arts Meet's situation has always been closely monitored by the Sun Blaze of the three factions. Through the change in positions of those light points, the Sun Blaze can easily deduce the specific situation inside the Black Abyss.

Seeing the East faction smoothly securing the second Spirit Orb, Chen Xuanhai and the others were greatly amazed.

In previous Martial Arts Meets, the process of the East faction fighting for Spirit Orbs has never been so smooth. Usually, the East would take advantage of the other two factions being distracted during their transport of Spirit Orbs to snatch them. Many times, they would only gather two orbs after the last orb appeared, because by then, the other two factions would have already obtained three and four orbs and had no spare power to seize more. In such a situation, the last orb inevitably belonged to the East.

But this time, the development of the situation is inexplicable. The first orb was understandable as it was given up by the Southern and Western factions, but what's the situation with this second orb?

Clearly, the cultivators of the Southern and Western factions were closing in on the Spirit Orb's position, but somehow they started fighting midway, allowing the East faction to pick up the second one without risk.

This situation left not only Chen Xuanhai and others bewildered, but also the Sun Blaze from the Southern and Western factions completely baffled, not knowing what their little ones were up to.

Before the Martial Arts Meet, they did advise not to suppress the East too harshly. The East had already suffered enough, and although the three factions are divided, they are ultimately one family and must work together against external enemies. But not suppressing doesn't mean being so lenient.

Although they could deduce the situation in the Black Abyss, they were unclear about the specifics of what happened inside and were powerless to intervene.

In silence, Chen Xuanhai grumbled, "If you have something to say, spit it out quickly. Don't hold it in and harm yourself!"

A Sun Blaze from the Western Region laughed and said, "Brother Chen, regardless of what happened, congratulations to Brother Chen, for the East faction has completed their task ahead of time. The Constellation of this generation in the East is... quite impressive!"

The implication being that the East should be content with securing two Spirit Orbs and need not intervene any further.

Huang Li from the Southern Region understood tacitly and chuckled lowly.

Chen Xuanhai snorted coldly, a bit regretful for speaking up. The incompetence of the younger generation left them seniors unable to retort against being mocked, causing a stuffy feeling in the chest.

Not only did the Sun Blaze think the East faction completed their task early, even within the Black Abyss, the Constellations involved from the East faction thought so too.

When the second Spirit Orb was safely placed, everyone showed joyful expressions, with some even bursting into laughter.

Even Hai Tang let out a long sigh of relief.

Now with two orbs in hand, they wouldn't lose too embarrassingly even if they didn't gain more later.

Lu Ye seeing this wanted to stir them up a bit, to not be so easily satisfied, after all, he still had the task of seizing the second. But if everyone was satisfied, what would he do? He couldn't fight alone.

But before he could speak, Hai Tang spoke first: "With such a perfect start, we should press on and seize more. If we can get three Spirit Orbs, we can wash away our past shame and uplift the majesty of the East. What do you all think?"

Hai Tang's words boosted the morale of the already delighted crowd, as the number of Spirit Orbs determined the strength of the domain's foundation for the next fifty years. They were carrying this sacred mission with an opportunity to achieve what their predecessors failed to accomplish, which would earn admiration from future generations if achieved.

Thus they all said, "We will follow Sister's arrangements!"

Hai Tang turned to Lu Ye: "Didn't Junior Brother Lu agree to assist the Southern faction? Now that the two factions are fighting over the Spirit Orbs, it's time to fulfill that promise."

Just as the East was transporting the Spirit Orb, the fifth orb had already appeared, and the Southern and Western factions were surely contending for it.

If the East rushed over at this time to assist the Southern faction, the Western faction would definitely lose!

Lu Ye nodded: "Since it's a promise, naturally it should be kept, to avoid people saying the East doesn't keep its word." He shifted his tone: "But I suggest we don't go to where they are fighting, nor directly participate in their confrontation."

Hai Tang asked: "Then what should we do?"

Lu Ye turned his head towards a direction: "We'll go over there!"

Everyone followed his gaze, temporarily stunned on the spot, and then looked at Lu Ye again, their faces full of shock, never expecting him to propose such a plan.

If such a thing were done, it would truly be an irreconcilable dispute with the Western faction!

After all, that direction is where the Western Region's camp is located!

This was a plan to raid the camp.

Such things had happened in history, but usually couldn't succeed because once the cultivators on the other side realized the movement of Spirit Orbs, they would immediately understand what was happening. With a swift retreat, they could easily reclaim the Spirit Orbs.

Seeing the expressions on their faces, Lu Ye knew what they were thinking and shook his head: "Not raiding the camp, raiding people!"

If they actually raided the camp, the Western faction would inevitably react immediately, likely abandoning the struggle with the Southern faction and retreating to defend, thus fulfilling the previous agreement with the Southern faction. But Lu Ye wanted to achieve more than just keeping the agreement with the Southern faction.

He wanted more to delay time!

Let the Southern and Western factions fight longer, this way it will facilitate the next plan! If these two factions no longer fight, his schemes cannot be implemented.

Hai Tang understood: "Junior Brother Lu means to intercept those Western cultivators who are reborn and rushing to the battlefield after dying?"

"Exactly!"

Hai Tang nodded: "This is good too, not directly interfering in the fight between the two factions, so we don't completely offend them."

Lu Ye knew that Hai Tang's thinking was still too simple. She thought this would not completely offend them, but in reality, as soon as the Eastern faction starts intercepting people, it would have the same effect as raiding the camp, and the Western faction will definitely harbor resentment towards the Eastern faction, likely leading to various oppressions.

But there was no need to explain these considerations to Hai Tang.

Ultimately, they had to offend one side, and previously the Southern faction agreed to Lu Ye's condition, so the only option left was to offend the Western faction.

The plan agreed upon, the group immediately headed in that direction.

As they reached the center between the Western Region Camp and the Spirit Orb that was being contested, Lu Ye and the nine others immediately dispersed, hiding on the nearby meteorites, concealing their forms and containing their aura.

It wasn't long before a stream of light hurriedly approached from the direction of the Western Region Camp, clearly a Western cultivator reborn and rushing to the battlefield.

Judging by the other party's spirit force fluctuations, he was only at Constellation Early Stage. This was expected, as in such a war, those with lower cultivation inevitably suffer more and are in greater danger.

This person only concerned himself with hurrying on the road, never imagining that in such a place, there would be a group of ill-intentioned individuals ambushing him.

As he entered the ambush circle, Han Molong was the first to jump out and block him, only then did he realize something was wrong, but it was already too late to run, as Han Molong's squad of three easily entangled him.

No intention to kill him, mainly because Lu Ye had instructed Han Molong beforehand to just engage him.

In such a situation, the person was infuriated, yelling loudly, spewing venomous words continuously, vowing to make the Eastern faction pay dearly later, yet unable to shake Han Molong and the others' determination.

Once decided, they wouldn't hesitate.

As the fight raged on, another stream of light approached from the direction of the Western Region Camp, and Lu Ye sensed the person had a Constellation Mid-Stage cultivation from a distance.

Clearly, the fight between the two factions was terribly brutal, with even Constellation Mid-Stage cultivators dying in battle.

A squad of nine, with one Constellation Mid-Stage cultivator, can play a significant role. He naturally rushed back to the battlefield, but from afar, he saw Han Molong and others surrounding his comrade, immediately halting with a serious expression.

The Eastern cultivators appearing at this location were undoubtedly intriguing, and he didn't approach hastily to rescue, mainly because he hadn't spotted other members of the Eastern faction.

However, just then, three figures suddenly emerged from the side, surprisingly Hai Tang's squad.

The person was startled, instantly understanding the Eastern faction's intention, and was about to escape from the side when Lu Ye led Huang Li and Xu Xinghe leisurely to confront him.

Without much hesitation, he charged straight at Lu Ye's squad.

The situation was clear: surrounded by two squads, one with a mid-stage expert and one without, he naturally chose the one without a mid-stage expert, making it easier to break through.

Simultaneously shouting: "Eastern faction, are you colluding with the Southern faction, conspiring together?"

Lu Ye ignored him, rushing forward towards this person.

As their spirit forces collided, Lu Ye's long blade unsheathed from his waist, and for an instant, a chilling intent flashed in the Void.

The Constellation Mid-Stage cultivator exclaimed and staggered backward, a deep wound was visible on his waist, flesh turning and blood gushing.

Before he could steady himself, Hai Tang's squad had already arrived, bringing him within their attack range.

Like Han Molong's squad, Hai Tang's squad only aimed to entangle, not kill. Even with the assistance of two tribal members, it was not easy to bind him, as in terms of expertise at the Constellation Mid-Stage, the other had many more years of experience than Hai Tang and was much more formidable.

But after being wounded by Lu Ye's slash, it was impossible for him to escape.

Adding that Lu Ye's gaze intentionally or unintentionally fixated on him, making him cautious.

Behind Lu Ye, Huang Li and Xu Xinghe were shocked, as they previously had no idea about Lu Ye's strength, only assuming that since their cultivations were similar, their power must be comparable. It wasn't until that slash that they realized Lu Ye's strength was by no means something they could compare with.

A Constellation Mid-Stage cultivator was actually wounded by his slash, even with their leverage and aid, their own foundation wasn't strong enough to achieve this level.

The external aid invited by the headquarters this time seemed remarkably extraordinary!
