"If that\'s the case, won\'t the Western Continent be thrown into turmoil? If the Eastern Continent plans to help the Western Continent fight the North, doesn\'t that mean that Western Continent also intends to support them against the Southern Continent?"

"Is this the beginning of the Continental Wars?"

The crew of the Merchant Ship, largely composed of Southern citizens, were deeply concerned. Until now, the South and West had maintained a relatively peaceful relationship, allowing them to handle matters with the other two continents without much trouble.

If the rumors were true, a crack had already developed in the relationship of the continents, which could mean bad news for the Merchants.

At this point, everyone aboard wondered if it was wise to continue to the Western Continent, now that their plans had been exposed.

"The Academy hasn\'t taken any action. The border isn\'t sealed yet, so the situation can\'t be that bad. Even if the Western Continent was planning this, I doubt that would do anything against us. They already have the Necromancer Tower to deal with."

"That\'s right. Even with the help of the Eastern Continent, the Necromancer Tower will not be an easy opponent. That\'s the only place against which the number advantage doesn\'t hold any significance."

Many crew members and guests on the ship were concerned about their safety. However, there were also a few people who were calm and knew that the situation wasn\'t as bad as it sounded.

At least that was the case for the Southern Continent which was why the Academy hadn\'t ordered for the border to be sealed.

Amidst the commotion on the ship, there was one person who was silently listening to everything that was being discussed.

Eren didn\'t expect something so major to happen. What secret deal were they talking about? There was no such thing as a secret deal to fight against the Northern Continent.

As for the three envoys, he knew their purpose better than anyone else, especially since he was supposed to be one of them.

The three Elders were simply taking their youngest disciples because of the letter that was sent by the Holy Church.

He had personally seen that letter and it had nothing as problematic as it was being claimed.

The letter simply contained an invitation since the Holy Church claimed to have discovered a tomb within their borders that could only be accessed by Cultivators.

The letter also mentioned that it was just a gesture of goodwill between the two continents and nothing more.

That\'s why Feng Yu had assigned three Elders and their Youngest Disciples, believing it to be a good opportunity for training for the youngsters.

\'The Northern Continent should be busy preparing for the opening of Hell\'s Door. That\'s why they didn\'t even have time to attack the Spirit Realm even after the loss of an important tower member.\'

This entire situation felt really strange to Eren. The Necromancer Tower didn\'t even have time to take revenge on the Spirit Realm. Could they still have time to turn the Eastern Continent against them?

First the invitation from the West and then the sudden attack from the Northern Continent? It was just too coincidental, all working in favor of the Western Continent.

\'Was it really the Necromancer Tower behind this attack? I can\'t ignore the possibility but I feel like it had more to do with the Holy Church...\'

Eren wasn\'t even sure just what kind of force was sent to deal with the three Elders that they didn\'t even have time to send a message back. He didn\'t even know what to feel. Should he feel relieved that he wasn\'t on that ship?

If it was just the disappearance of the three Elders, he still would have seen the Necromancer Tower with some suspicions but the rumors about this incident were spreading too fast.

It had only been a few days and this even spread to the Southern Continent which had nothing to do with it?

If the Necromancer Tower was behind it, they wouldn\'t have left any witness. Even if the Great Demon Sect found out about the disappearance, they wouldn\'t spread this news publically.

As for the Holy Church, they shouldn\'t have known about this in the first place unless they were there. So where did this rumor spread from? It definitely couldn\'t have come from the North. Even the Necromancer Tower couldn\'t be this foolish.

It was clear that someone was intentionally trying to drag Feng Yu. If all four continents knew about it and Feng Yu didn\'t attack the Necromancer Tower, she was going to be seen as cowardly.

For someone proud like Feng Yu, this was probably the best tactic.

\'It seems the Holy Priestess is trying to use Feng Yu as a borrowed knife against her enemies.\'

Eren let out a sigh, realizing that things were quite complicated. No matter what, the Eastern Continent had already been dragged into this mess.

It was either the Northern Continent or the Western Continent who attacked the three envoys. No matter who was to blame, the Great Demon Sect was already caught in the conflict.

If they attacked the Northern Continent, the South was going to attack them while the West was going to ally with them. If they found West to be the culprit and attacked them, North was going to ally with them and South was going to attack them.

The only way to stop this was to let the death of the three Elders be forgotten but it was also impossible. Feng Yu wasn\'t going to accept the death of her people without doing anything.

Whoever planned this, already had the Eastern Continent in checkmate. No matter who was blamed, a continental war was on the horizon.
