The trio's speculation is not actually that far off.
Because, the young master of the Blackwood planned this scenario after he realized that there is a possibility that the representative, the first target they made contact with might have been kidnapped from right under their noses.
He actually contacted the Purple Sky merchant group to warn and keep an eye on their representative and for some reason, they took his suggestion seriously without any resistance. But they don't know exactly where the secret location of the space gate was.
That guy already went on the trip this time before they could even think of informing or protecting him.
And before they could even find the proper location, Sam already arrived with his teammates and directly kidnapped him.
As soon as this happened, there is no way they could sit still.
