Of course, there is also another possibility.

The enemy Mong Jie is fighting against might not be some intelligent lifeform, but a star beast. If that's the case, then there's no need to be too nervous.

Because star beasts generally don't descend upon domains; they usually roam freely in stellar space.

But given all the possibilities, one must be cautious. Lu Ye here can only prepare for the worst and respond in the most appropriate manner.

The orders were communicated. Lu Ye stood up and walked out from his place of seclusion.

Two people hurriedly approached him; they were the two Nine Provinces Constellation cultivators who returned from stellar space a few days ago to review the information in the many jade slips.

It was clear they had also received the news.

After exchanging a glance, Lu Ye nodded, indicating he already knew the situation. He said aloud, "Please wait a moment, you two."

The Mental Consciousness surged as he sent a message: "Number Nine, how many Constellations are currently within the domain?"

Number Nine's voice sounded by his ear: "Only Nian Yuexian."

In the past six months, Lu Ye had been cultivating at the Governor's Hall, while Nian Yuexian stayed at the Righteous Blood Sect. Since she had enough spirit jade, she hadn't rushed back into stellar space.

As for the other Constellations, they came and went in haste. Even if they returned to Nine Provinces, they didn't stay for long.

For them, stellar space is the main stage unless they gather enough spirit jade and return for seclusion and cultivation.

"Grant Nian Yuexian the Heaven's Augury Pillar transmission permission." While giving the command, Lu Ye also sent a message to Nian Yuexian, asking her to use the Heaven's Augury Pillar to teleport to the Governor's Hall.

He inquired Number Nine again: "If I fly straight from Nine Provinces to the Unparalleled Continent, how many Constellations can respond in time along the way?"

Number Nine can sense the precise locations of those Constellations, as long as they're within sensing range.

Thus, asking Number Nine was the most convenient and quickest option.

A moment later, Number Nine provided an answer.

Lu Ye understood and, based on Number Nine's answer, contacted each of them, asking them to rush to the designated locations and wait silently.

It's uncertain what happened on the Unparalleled Continent. If Mong Jie is indeed just fighting a star beast, then it's not a big problem. Even if he were losing, as a physique cultivator, Mong Jie isn't someone who would die so easily.

The fear lies in him encountering some intelligent lifeform. If so, then Nine Provinces must urgently support.

All of Lu Ye's current arrangements are preparation for support, striving to bring the most people to the Unparalleled Continent in the shortest time!

Nian Yuexian's figure suddenly emerged from the Heaven's Augury Pillar nearby.

"Let's go!" Lu Ye called out and was the first to dash out of the great hall, with three figures following closely behind.

The Silver Fish starboat was summoned, transforming into a two-zhang-long ferry form. Lu Ye swiftly entered the canopy and took control of the array hub.

Nian Yuexian, familiar with the setup, and the other two Constellations followed in.

In the next instant, the Silver Fish trembled slightly and soared into the sky.

Currently, there are about a thousand Nine Provinces Constellations. However, because they're scattered, not many can be picked up along the way. As support is the priority and time is pressing, Lu Ye can't afford to make detours to pick them up.

Moreover, the capacity of the Silver Fish is limited, and it can't carry many people.

While controlling the Silver Fish in flight, Lu Ye also managed many incoming messages. Many Constellations had received the news concerning the situation on the Unparalleled Continent and wanted to inquire further. Presently, the acting Governor Lu Ye was the best person to consult, but Lu Ye himself had yet to fully understand the situation and couldn't provide accurate or effective responses.

Several Constellations expressed their intent to set off for the Unparalleled Continent immediately, only to be dissuaded by Lu Ye. After all, the journey was long, and without a starboat, the time required was too lengthy. Rushing there that way wouldn't be timely enough for support.

Even though he persuaded them, the effect was unclear. Judging from the messages sent by various Constellations, they truly wanted to contribute, and some might have verbally agreed but were likely already on their way to the Unparalleled Continent.

This wasn't something Lu Ye could effectively discourage. They were all Constellations with their own way of doing things. Lu Ye could only offer suggestions but wouldn't interfere in their actions.

After two hours, a sword light suddenly shone up ahead, swiftly followed by the sound of a soul-stirring sword cry.

It wasn't an attack but a signal.

Lu Ye directed the Silver Fish to glide over to the sword light, and Jian Guhong shadowed onto the deck.

He was preparing to return to Nine Provinces. Having heard that the Governor's Hall had acquired some new items, he wanted to check them out. He happened to encounter the current situation and was picked up by Lu Ye.

They continued forward, occasionally picking up a person or two along the way.

A day later, Jian Guhong suddenly sighed and said to Lu Ye, "We need to prepare for the worst."

Lu Ye nodded.

They both understood that what Mong Jie encountered over there was most likely not a star beast. If it were a star beast, there should have been new developments from the Unparalleled Continent by now. The ongoing silence meant the crisis wasn't yet resolved.

Of course, it's also possible that Mong Jie perished in the battle and couldn't relay messages.

However, the news earlier conveyed that Mong Jie roared in anger during the great battle, which was most likely a warning to the Nine Provinces cultivators on the Unparalleled Continent.

A few days later, the Silver Fish picked up the last two people.

It was Feng Wujiang and his wife Qiu Min.

At this point, the Silver Fish was already at full capacity, with Lu Ye there were a total of nine people, and no more cultivators could be accommodated.

On the starboat, everyone was using spirit jade to cultivate. Although it was impossible to significantly increase their strength in such a short time, any improvement was better than none.

After picking up the senior brother and sister-in-law, Lu Ye took out the remaining purple and white Jade Talismans and distributed them. Under his guidance, everyone nourished these Spirit Talismans within themselves, ready to use them in battle at any time.

Lu Ye kept his mind constantly tense, constantly discerning the surrounding stars, ensuring that he wouldn't go off course.

In astral space, even a slight deviation was unacceptable. Fortunately, he had served as the governor of the Governor's Hall for half a year, becoming very familiar with the star map around the Nine Provinces, able to quickly correct any minor navigational errors during the flight.

His heart was actually quite anxious and uneasy.

Because most of his few family and friends were on the Unparalleled Continent, and he had no way of knowing what was happening there, nor was he aware of their safety, which was undoubtedly a torment.

But he showed nothing on the surface, because he understood that the more critical the situation, the calmer one must remain.

Incompetent frenzy would only ruin things.

The Silver Fish swept through the stellar space, getting closer and closer to the Unparalleled Continent.

About a month later, just as they reached the stellar space surrounding the Unparalleled Continent, Lu Ye suddenly felt something and turned his head to look in a direction.

At the same time, everyone on the starboat opened their eyes.

"There's the sound of a fight!" Feng Wujiang spoke.

"It's Mong Jie's aura!" Jian Guhong followed up.

Having been with Mong Jie for decades, he was more than familiar with his aura.

Mong Jie wasn't dead yet! This was undoubtedly good news, bringing a sigh of relief to those who had waited in torment for a month. This meant one thing: the enemy Mong Jie encountered wasn't strong enough to cause despair, so it's highly likely they were also of the Constellation level; otherwise, Mong Jie would not still be alive after all this time.

As Jian Guhong finished speaking, Lu Ye halted the starboat. Without needing any further instructions, the group silently disembarked and used the Concealment Technique to hide their auras and spirit forces.

It must be said, in comparison, the Nine Provinces cultivators' expertise in combat far surpassed that of the Dwarf Race. Because of their different upbringing environments, the Dwarf Race might possess better domains and more favorable cultivation conditions, but they lacked the numerous trials of the growth process.

The Nine Provinces cultivators were different; each of them had survived through storms and battles countless times, and those who had lived to ascend to the Constellation were all seasoned combat veterans.

At this moment, a simple exchange of glances was enough for them to devise a combat strategy.

The nine of them dispersed quietly like nine fish diving into the sea.

Lu Ye, moving like a specter, slowly approached the battlefield, and after a moment, finally saw the situation clearly.

Indeed, it was Mong Jie, but his condition was dire. His upper garment was already in tatters, and his pants were stained with blood, with hideous wounds crisscrossing his body, some healing, some newly acquired.

For a Constellation Realm, as long as there was timely recovery, superficial wounds didn't really count as injuries, but Mong Jie still appeared battered, indicating his dire state.

This was thanks to his physique cultivation; otherwise, the situation would have been far worse.

He was fighting against two people, both of mid-stage Constellation cultivation, one a magic cultivator and the other a combat cultivator. The magic cultivator attacked from a distance, while the combat cultivator engaged directly, coordinating well.

Mong Jie was mostly on the receiving end, with little strength to fight back.

He attempted multiple times to escape the encirclement but was tangled up by the combat cultivator, unable to break free.

Lu Ye didn't know how long Mong Jie had been holding on, but it clearly couldn't have been a month. In such a disadvantaged situation, Mong Jie couldn't possibly have held on for that long.

He was just thankful that he had decisively led the rescue team upon receiving the message; otherwise, if they had been even half a day late, Mong Jie would have been dead here.

From the opposing side, a flash of sword light suddenly burst forth, aiming at the magic cultivator's vital spot while the latter was casting spells to attack Mong Jie.

The magic cultivator was shocked. He and his companion had been chasing Mong Jie for a month, yet the enemy's thick skin meant that minor injuries didn't matter, repeatedly letting him escape, and this guy even kept provoking them from time to time.

They finally seized the opportunity, about to kill him, but unexpectedly got ambushed themselves.

One month...and there was no sign of anyone else. Where did this attacker come from?

Realizing the danger, the magic cultivator immediately summoned a spirit treasure, transforming it into a protective shield, but at the next moment, he sensed multiple killing intents locking onto him from all directions.

He was thrown into a panic!

As Jian Guhong acted, the people who had come from the Nine Provinces also made their move simultaneously.

Lu Ye transformed into a streak of light, directly charging toward the combat cultivator who was grappling with Mong Jie.
