Zana replied, "The exact origin is still unclear, but I heard that it suddenly appeared in the Fairy Coffin when the Black Death Emperor sent troops to attack the investigation team."

"He devoured the original soul, became the newly born Fourth Progenitor, and then... killed Demitorie."

"Dimitriel?"

Qi Yi thought for a moment: "If I remember correctly, he's that little guy who plays with snakes, right?"

"Yes, the one that can fuse with familiars."

Zana replied, "I heard that during that battle, Demitorie summoned a serpent tree that was hundreds of meters tall."

"If nothing unexpected happens, then that should be the form of the nine familiars he has been hiding after their fusion."

"Hundreds of meters? That's pretty impressive."

Qi Yi stroked his chin thoughtfully: "This level of familiar has surpassed ordinary True Ancestor familiars."

"Even if the newly born Fourth Progenitor retrieved Number Twelve, he only had one familiar. How did he defeat Demitriel?"

"That's the key point."

Zana took a deep breath, a serious expression on her face.

"Let me correct one of your wrong guesses first. That man named Lin Que did not retrieve Number Twelve."

"According to eyewitness reports near the port of Gozo Island, the Fourth True Ancestor Lin Que boarded the ship with the Twelfth and left."

The familiar inside Number Twelve was not retrieved?

Qi Yi paused for a moment, seemingly guessing something, and asked first, "Zana, where was the location of that burst of magic not long ago?"

Just as you think.

Zana replied, "The source of that astonishing magical power is near the research team's camp on Gozo Island."

"If the intelligence from the investigation team is true, the terrifying magical power appeared as soon as Demitoris's fused familiar appeared."

Qi Yi's face showed understanding: "I see, no wonder you suddenly brought up the Fourth True Ancestor."

Although Zana kept saying she wasn't sure, all these factors combined basically confirmed one thing.

The source of that astonishing magical power not long ago was the newly born Fourth True Ancestor.

"I originally thought it was a special weapon like the Elf Furnace, but now it seems it might be more troublesome than I imagined."

Qi Yi thought for a moment and asked, "You just said that the Fourth True Ancestor boarded the ship, where did he go?"

Itogami Island.

Itogami Island?

Recalling the special nature of that demon-controlled special zone, a subtle expression appeared on Qi Yi's face.

"It doesn't feel like a coincidence."

"I think so."

Zana replied, "What do you think? Should we go and check it out ourselves?"

"No, there's no rush."

Qi Yi shook his head: "Since he didn't retrieve the familiar inside Number Twelve, it means he doesn't intend to take action against Number Twelve."

"While I don't know if this is a coincidence, perhaps he can achieve Cain's goal. Let's wait and see."

Zana asked, "What about Dimitrios?"

"Dimitrière should not have been present on Gozo Island."

Qi Yi remained remarkably calm about this: "If nothing unexpected happens, he must have received the message and proactively sought out the Fourth Progenitor."

"Since you made the wrong decision, it's not surprising that you died."

"But the news of his death had already spread."

Zana cautioned, "Those people down there are making a huge fuss right now. They even held a meeting to say they want to restore the face of the War King's Domain."

To regain face for the War King's Domain?

How to find this?

Should we go and fight that newly born Fourth Progenitor?

Qi Yi pondered for a few seconds and suddenly felt that this might be a good opportunity to get to know Lin Que.

"Send out the information about the Fourth Ancestor."

Qi Yi ordered, "If they still want to make a move, then send a representative over."

......

Time passed slowly, and a day went by in the blink of an eye.

At the port of Itogami Island, a special zone for demons, a huge ship slowly sailed in from afar.

"Lord Lin Que, we have arrived at Itogami Island."

The blonde girl in the swimsuit ran onto the deck and reported to Lin Que, who was enjoying a massage.

"However, we haven't received a response from Itogami Island since we sent the notification. Should we just barge in?"

.......

Chapter 173 Since they're unwilling to cooperate, let's all get on our way.

"Break in?"

Wearing a plaid shirt and shorts, with sunglasses on, Lin Que, dressed like he was on vacation, sat up.

"No need, no need, Natsuki has already come to pick us up."

"You seem to be going too far."

The space trembled slightly, and Nangong Nayue, dressed in a formal gown, appeared not far away.

Holding up the parasol, she frowned and looked at Lin Que with some displeasure.

"It's fine if you just call me by my name, but why do you have to add 'little' to it now?"

"Because it makes it seem like we have a good relationship!"

Lin Que waved to the two maids beside him to leave, then smiled and walked towards her.

"Isn't this great? Don't you like it?"

"I do not like."

Nangong Nayue replied without hesitation, "So please don't add 'small' before my name."

"Okay, Natsuki."

Lin nodded slightly: "I'll listen to you, Xiao Nayue."

Nangong Nayue: "......"

I'm so angry, I really want to hit someone, but I can't beat them.

Taking a deep breath, Nangong Nayue suppressed her anger and looked at the ship that had just arrived yesterday.

"How did the Tomb of the Deep Ocean end up in your hands? When I received the news just now, I thought I had misheard."

"Do you even need to ask?"

Lin Que casually replied, "Of course it's because I killed Demitorie, and this ship is now my spoils of war."

"You killed that snake charmer?!"

Due to Guy's orders, most of the members of the Gozo Island Survey Team have now been taken to the War King's Domain.

Due to the information blockade, Nangong Nayue only knew that a terrifying magical power had erupted yesterday.

As for other matters, Nangong Nayue is currently completely unaware of them.

Upon hearing Lin Que's words, Nangong Nayue couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

"Are you crazy? That snake charmer is from the War King's Domain."

"Hey hey hey~ No need to talk about such trivial things~"

Lin Que reached under Nangong Nayue's armpits and lifted her up.

"Thank you for your concern, Natsuki. I'm very happy! ~"

"Don't worry, I'll handle this."

"Who cares about you! Let go of me!"

Suddenly lifted high, Nangong Nayue pulled out a folding fan and patted Lin Que's head twice.

"Put me down! Did you hear me?!"

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

"Too much of a good thing is bad," Lin Que teased, putting down the furious Nangong Nayue.

"Is Natsuki being tsundere? There's really no need to be shy. On this ship..."
