At the moment, ten warships reached the sky above the South Sea City.
However, to onlookers' disappointment, no one got off the warships.
Meanwhile, in the South Sea City, dozens of figures shot up into the sky.
The leader was an old nun in her fifties. She held a duster in her hand as she exuded the Buddhist aura. A strong pressure also surrounded her.
She was followed by a large group of middle-aged nuns and young nuns.
"Look! It is Elder Trina from the South Marine Sect, the reclusive elder of the South Marine Sect. She's here to welcome the Zhao Clan's team!"
As soon as Elder Trina appeared, everyone broke into whispered discussions.
"Ha-ha!
Respected Elder Trina, I didn't expect your welcome. It's so kind of you."
People came out from one of the ten warships after they saw the elder. The leader was a square-faced middle-aged man who wore yellow and with a serious expression.
"You are the leader of the Zhao Clan. How can we afford disrespect when such a noble person personally visits our sect?
Our sect leader has been waiting for you back at the headquarters. This way please,"
Elder Trina explained. She cast her duster into the air. It instantly grew and spread across the sky.
Members of the South Marine Sect boarded the duster and soared forward.
Then, the Zhao Clan's warships instantly followed.
The huge duster and the ten warships disappeared into the sky.
Austin stood amongst the crowd and didn't go after them.
He had already known that the Zhao Clan would definitely pass through the South Sea City on the way back.
Therefore, he decided to stay and wait until they returned. By then, he would rescue Ivy and Sue.
Breaking into the South Marine Sect's headquarters was like a suicide plan. He would be outnumbered and the possibility of facing a powerful Sect-protecting Array was high.
Thus, the best strategy was to quietly wait in the South Sea City.
On the other hand, the South Marine Sect's headquarters was in a festive mood.
Various colored ribbons filled the buildings and red lanterns hung everywhere.
The highlight was both Ivy and Sue in bright red robes who were imprisoned in a small hall. They hopelessly waited for their wedding ceremony to begin.
It seemed that they were going to get married soon.
However, instead of joy, misery painted their beautiful faces. Their eyes were swollen and lifeless.
"Little beggar, we may not meet again in this life.
I could only wait for the next life.
Maybe then and there, our roads will meet again and we can resume our relationship."
Sue raised her head and sadly gazed at the distant sky outside the window.
Ivy didn't say anything. She just silently walked up to Sue and embraced her.
"The leader of the Zhao Clan is here!"
Suddenly, someone shouted from the outside.
"Ivy, they are coming!"
They couldn't help but tightly hold each other's hands as they waited.
"Ivy, when shall we do it?"
Sue asked.
