“Cough, cough! What just happened?”

Just as Xu Yiren felt she was about to be burned to death by the intense flames, she twitched violently and broke free from the illusion.

Gasping for breath and her chest heaving, she reached for her Magic Artifact. She fumbled her waist, only to find her storage bag was missing.

Suddenly, Xu Yiren’s face turned unspeakably ugly.

“Damn it!”

Xu Yiren cursed under her breath, then squeezed the Finger Jue in her hand, releasing a ball of light. Using this light, she looked around alertly.

She was still hovering above the altar in the center of the stone forest, but the mask-shaped stone sculpture below her had been shattered into rubble, and she had no idea who did it.

She did not see Whale Falling Chen, Xu Mu, or Shen Gai.

Yang Wanshou, Wang Yin Xian, and Zhang Tianluo were still floating around her, their eyes closed and their faces fraught. They were clearly still trapped in the illusion.

Xu Yiren looked at their waists and noticed that their storage bags were also missing, which oddly relieved her a bit.

She controlled her movements, landed on the altar, and was about to decide whether to investigate her surroundings or leave immediately when Yang Wanshou and the others broke free from the illusion and landed on the altar.

“Friend Xu, what just happened? Where are Friend Shen and Friend Xu?” Yang Wanshou asked, his white eyebrows furrowed.

Zhang Tianluo and Wang Yin Xian, who also just came to, looked at Xu Yiren.

At that moment, Zhang Tianluo suddenly screamed.

“My storage bag!”

Hearing Zhang Tianluo’s voice, the other two quickly checked and found that their storage bags were also missing.

Especially Wang Yin Xian, her face flushed with shame and anger.

Because besides the storage bag she carried on her, she had one hidden inside her lower body.

No one would have thought of that.

But when she checked, it was gone too.

Which means that the thief definitely searched there thoroughly.

The three of them looked at Xu Yiren again, suspecting that she might have stolen their storage bags.

Xu Yiren shook her head with a bitter smile.

“Stop looking, mine is gone too!”

Right then, Xu Mu and Shen Gai walked out of the palace.

“Friend Xu!”

“Friend Shen!”

The four hurried over and asked, “Do you have any idea what just happened?”

“And our storage bags!”

The two looked at each other, both shook their heads with a bitter smile.

“When we woke up, what we found was no different than what you found. As for the storage bags, we both woke up at almost the same time and have already searched each other!” Shen Gai said.

“What about inside the palace?” Xu Yiren asked urgently.

Even though not all her wealth was carried on her, a large part of it was in her storage bag, and losing it for no reason was devastating.

“There’s nothing inside. If you don’t trust us, you can go in and check it yourself,” said Xu Mu.

Shen Gai nodded, affirming what Xu Mu said.

Seeing their reactions, the other four felt as if they had lost flesh from their bodies.

This time, they didn’t just fail at their endeavour, it was more like a chunk of flesh was cut off them.

“Whale, where is Whale Falling Chen?”

Xu Yiren asked with difficulty.

Even though the events before falling into the illusion made it clear, Xu Yiren was still a bit unwilling to accept it.

She had followed the other party for so long, and she couldn’t believe that they would do something so ruthless.

“We don’t know, he was already gone when we woke up,” Xu Mu shook his head and looked at the shattered stone on the high platform, adding, “Perhaps he’s dead!”

The crowd turned to look and immediately understood his point.

If Whale Falling Chen hadn’t had an accident, they wouldn’t have survived.

Although they suspected someone had secretly saved them, the chances of this seemed low.

It made more sense that something unexpected happened to Whale Falling Chen.

“What do we do now?” Xu Yiren asked.

She was feeling very anxious and at a loss.

Without Whale Falling Chen, could the Whale Sea Gang still exist?

If the Whale Sea Gang ceased to exist, where should she, the Deputy Gang Leader, go?

“Let’s go back first. Regardless of what happened, we can discuss it slowly after we return,” Shen Gai said.

Compared to Xu Yiren’s panic, Shen Gai was much more composed.

Hearing his words, the other three nodded unconsciously.

Xu Mu’s eyes flickered, but he said nothing.

Xu Yiren was a bit unwilling. She wanted to stay and check, but the others didn’t want to linger, so she had to follow the crowd.

After everyone returned to Black Tide Island the same way they came, they didn’t leave immediately, but gathered to discuss what to do next.

“Firstly, we should confirm whether Friend Whale had an accident or not. If he did, we should elect a new Gang Leader. If not, well…”

Still, it was Shen Gai who spoke first. He had completely taken control of the situation. Except for the dissatisfaction on Xu Yiren’s face, no one protested.

Considering the events leading up to the illusion, if they weren’t fools, they’d know all this was a trap set up by Whale Falling Chen.

It was just that none of them called him out on it.

If Whale Falling Chen was dead, then so be it.

If he was alive, they certainly couldn’t maintain a peaceful coexistence. Considering Whale Falling Chen’s strength, he probably wouldn’t fear them even if they teamed up against him, so their only option was to leave.

“If no one objects, let’s make it a month,” he proposed..
