Ning Xuan reacted in an instant. The mobile apartment remained steadily suspended in mid-air.
"There's someone there!" As Ning Xuan stood up, You Ruo pointed down below.
Ning Xuan's eyes narrowed. He saw a boundless sea, a solitary boat, and on it, a person wearing a bamboo hat and a straw raincoat. Yet, he hadn't sensed any trace of a living being.
Ning Xuan was very confident in his Spiritual Sense. At this distance, especially with the person in plain sight, it should have been impossible for him not to sense their aura. Unless... they were a dead man!
Just as the thought crossed Ning Xuan's mind, the person spoke.
"Forgive my failure to greet such distinguished guests from afar. My apologies, my apologies!"
You Ruo's body tensed. She hadn't sensed the person's aura either, and her thoughts mirrored Ning Xuan's. Yet, the figure had just spoken! A chill ran down her spine.
CLANG!
