Gray Valley's star chart was brought up before the surprised ship captains. Ye Chong stood in front of the star chart, facing his audience. He spoke solemnly, "This is Gray Valley. The red zones mark where red-tailed beasts were sighted. This is our current location." He pointed to the S.S. Iron Scorpion on the star chart. He then traced his finger towards the region with the most intense red color and said, "This is the front line, where we came from."
Everyone watched in silent gloom.
"Let me tell you something. The Gateway that leads from Gray Valley to He Yue Galaxy is already invaded by the red-tailed beasts. It's still unclear where these red-tailed beasts came from."
"Ah!" The people were shocked. A few even stood up. Xi Qing and Shu exchanged a look of despair. The news was a horrible blow to them all, shattering their hopes of escaping to the He Yue Galaxy.
