Ye Zhen didn't even need to turn around to guess who those malicious gazes came from.
The people from the Stars Tower couldn't be absent; those dozen malicious gazes coming from the same direction must be from the Stars Tower.
The gazes beside him, on the other hand, were from the Dragon Alliance members.
Without a doubt, if Ye Zhen left the island to search for spiritual medicine in the undersea canyon, these people would definitely target him.
Not to mention the ban on leaving Shuili Island being useless; even if it were effective, it wouldn't help much once in the sea.
For a moment, Ye Zhen hesitated.
To give up on this Alchemy Conference was nearly impossible; Ye Zhen had been planning and preparing for it for years, overcoming numerous obstacles to reach Shuili Island. To give up now would render all his efforts in vain.
But participating?
Just thinking about Jie Tianhe's terrifying cultivation made Ye Zhen's scalp tingle.
