The speed of this large spaceship was extremely fast; in just a single day, it had returned to the Xuanhuang Star Domain.
At this moment, the Five-Domain Allied Army and the Star Nation's Expeditionary Army were still locked in a stalemate within Horn Star Domain. However, Ye Yunfei was simply not interested in any of that anymore.
The majority of the high-ranking members of the Five-Domain Allied Army had once tried to join forces to capture Ye Yunfei and hand him over to the Star Sky Pang Clan.
That alone made Ye Yunfei want nothing more to do with the affairs of the Five-Domain Allied Army.
Moreover, Ye Yunfei's only concern now was to find his father as quickly as possible. Everything else was insignificant!
"You three, return to the Ancient Demon Realm. Lead your Demonic Tribe forces and garrison there," Ye Yunfei transmitted the three Demon Kings out of the Phantom Tower and instructed.
"Understood," the three Demon Kings replied.
Then, the three Demon Kings headed back in the direction of the Ancient Demon Realm.
Ye Yunfei, meanwhile, returned towards Northern Barrens Domain.
Soon, Ye Yunfei was back within the Underground Cave Complex in Northern Barrens Domain.
"From now on, you will all stay here and protect everyone's safety," Ye Yunfei transmitted all 142 Imperial Realm slaves out and gave them instructions.
"We understand, Master," all the Imperial Realm slaves respectfully replied in unison.
"So many Imperial Realm experts!"
Elder Tang Wu, Elder Tang Biao, the Houtu Sect Master, and many other high-ranking members of the Tang Clan and Houtu Sect were stunned speechless upon seeing Ye Yunfei bring back such a large number of Imperial Realm experts.
"Elder Tang Wu, the situation outside has been chaotic lately. Make sure everyone stays here; no one is to go out. These cultivation resources are for you to safeguard and distribute according to need."
As he spoke, Ye Yunfei took out several dozen spatial rings and handed them to Elder Tang Wu.
During this period, Ye Yunfei had killed many Star Bridge Realm experts and amassed a vast amount of wealth. The quantity and quality of the possessions owned by Star Bridge Realm experts were truly staggering.
"I understand," Elder Tang Wu nodded, accepting the spatial rings.
"Young Master Ye, are you going to venture out again?" Elder Tang Wu asked.
"Yes," Ye Yunfei nodded.
"Young Master Ye, you mentioned last time that you were looking for someone. Whom were you seeking? Did you find them?" Elder Tang Wu inquired further.
"Not yet. I'll tell you all about it in detail another time when I have the chance," Ye Yunfei said.
Next, Ye Yunfei took out a batch of formation materials and once again laid down another series of formations across this Underground Cave Complex.
Furthermore, Ye Yunfei had Hu Miao help set up numerous illusion formations.
In this way, the Underground Cave Complex was now tightly protected by several hundred formations of various kinds, making it incredibly sturdy.
Moreover, there were now more than a hundred Imperial Realm slaves personally stationed there.
The Eightfold Dragon Formation that these hundred-plus Imperial Realm slaves could form had combat power equivalent to a mid-stage Star Bridge Realm cultivator!
"Alright, I'm leaving."
Finally, after giving a parting word to Elder Tang Wu and the others, Ye Yunfei left the Underground Cave Complex, boarded his spaceship, and headed out into the depths of the starry sky.
"Young Master Ye is always coming and going in such a hurry. He must have urgent business," Elder Tang Wu couldn't help but sigh as he watched Ye Yunfei's departing figure.
"We are too weak. We can't help the Holy Son Ye with anything at all. That's why he hasn't even told us what exactly is going on," the Houtu Sect Master also sighed.
"The Holy Son's strength has increased far too rapidly. We have fallen far behind him," Elder Tang Wu shook his head with a bitter smile.
"Young Master Ye is a dragon among men, destined to become a major power who shakes a region of the starry sky in the future. Old fogeys like us could never hope to keep up with Young Master Ye in this lifetime," Elder Tang Biao said.
"That's right," Elder Tang Wu and the Houtu Sect Master both nodded.
Meanwhile...
Ye Yunfei's spaceship sailed through the vast starry sky.
According to the information provided by that Pang Clan elder, Ye Tianpeng had been taken away by an expert named Pang Di.
Pang Di was also a Sea Splitting Realm expert!
Furthermore, Ye Yunfei also possessed the star chart detailing Pang Di's intended return route.
Ye Yunfei pushed the spaceship to its limit, racing ahead at full speed along the starry sky route indicated by that elder.
This spaceship belonged to the Pang Clan, and its quality was excellent.
Along the way, they encountered quite a few hazards of the void, such as stellar storm turbulence, meteorite swarms, and more. This spaceship traversed them all with ease.
It could even detect and avoid cosmic black holes and stellar abysses in advance.
The headquarters of the Star Sky Pang Clan was located in a star domain quite far from the Xuanhuang Star Domain.
Actually, star domains in remote locations like the Xuanhuang Star Domain, composed of only a handful of stars, didn't truly qualify to be called 'star domains'. At most, they could be called star systems.
The title 'Xuanhuang Star Domain' was simply how the inhabitants of this star region referred to it.
Along the way, the spaceship Ye Yunfei was on passed through several star domains.
Time passed quickly.
Soon, seven days had gone by.
On this day, the spaceship passed through another star domain.
"This star domain is called the Qianlin Star Domain. The Pang Clan has a branch stronghold within it. Pang Di might stop here to rest."
Ye Yunfei thought to himself.
Therefore, Ye Yunfei piloted the spaceship towards the primary star of the Qianlin Star Domain.
Generally speaking, a star domain had one primary star.
The Pang Clan's branch stronghold was located on the Qianlin Star Domain's primary star.
It was a relatively large celestial body, about ten times the volume of Xuanhuang Star!
It was a very prosperous star, rich in spiritual energy, with its own complete set of natural laws.
"What's the approximate location of your Pang Clan's branch stronghold?"
Ye Yunfei transmitted that Pang Clan elder out of the Phantom Tower and asked.
"In the east. A city called Pang City is our Pang Clan's branch stronghold in the Qianlin Star Domain," the Pang Clan elder replied.
"Pang City."
Ye Yunfei's gaze turned towards the eastern part of this star.
A moment later, the spaceship landed in the east and quietly proceeded towards Pang City's location.
Pang City was a vast, magnificent, and imposing megacity, crouching upon the land like some colossal beast.
Ye Yunfei stowed the spaceship away and walked into Pang City.
Inside the city, the streets teemed with activity, bustling and prosperous.
Walking the main roads were humans, demonic beasts and monsters, and a number of other peculiar races.
Moreover, many of the races retained their original racial appearances and had not shapeshifted into human form.
For instance, there were many demonic lions, demonic tigers, and crocodile dragons swaggering down the streets in their beast forms.
There was even a huge white serpent, over a hundred meters long, radiating a powerful aura as it slithered swiftly down a main avenue, causing all living beings in its path to scramble out of its way.
The area of this city was truly enormous. Within its walls were rolling mountain ranges, rivers, plains, and valleys.
Ye Yunfei employed his movement technique, heading towards a complex of resplendent, golden and jade-green palaces in the very center of the city.
That was the heart of this Pang Clan branch stronghold!
