Chapter 409 - 143 -Inadequacies in the Water
Looking at the people around him, who were greeting him with cupped hands and flattering words, Xu Bai expressed that he just wanted to keep a low profile.
“We have to speed up the disguise. We keep forgetting about this matter.”Xu Bai grinned and thought to himself.
In a situation like this, if there was a way to disguise himself, this situation would not have happened. He could have kept a low profile, but he could not keep a low profile at this time.
“I didn’t expect the Ye family to have a relationship with Lord Xu. It seems that we have to interact more often!”
“I didn’t expect Lord Xu to be so interested in music. Why don’t we accompany Lord Xu and tour the Zhile Ship?”
“Lord Xu, my daughter’s age is just right. She’s peerless and beautiful. It’s when Yunying is not married. Why don’t we…”
Voices rose and fell in the surroundings. At this moment, the music was no longer important. What was important was that Xu Bai was already conspicuous enough.
The Ye Family Head was extremely cautious at this moment. He scanned the surroundings with a vigilant gaze, afraid that something unusual would happen.
She was not afraid of the people around her, but she was afraid that these people would lose their minds and say Xu Bai’s nickname in the Jianghu. If Xu Bai got angry, it would not be fun.
Fortunately, this group of people had some knowledge. They did not say Xu Bai’s title and only called him Lord Xu.
As the saying went, one should not hit a smiling person. Xu Bai could not bring himself to be flattered by these people.
“Everyone, I don’t want to be too eye-catching. Let’s just do what we need to do. “Xu Bai cupped his hands and said.
The people present were all smart people. The greeting just now was just to get familiar. They couldn’t guarantee that they would have a second chance to interact with each other.
Seeing that Xu Bai didn’t seem to care much, they understood that now was not the time to talk, so they gradually dispersed.
“Lord Xu, I don’t think the rest of the journey will be easy. “Kong Xu watched the group of people leave and revealed a bitter smile.
They were originally here to investigate, but because of Xu Bai, their identities had been exposed.
If the other party really wanted to cause trouble on this ship, they would definitely dodge at this moment. Otherwise, they would be too stupid.
Xu Bai naturally understood the current situation. He turned around and looked around. Although the people around had already left, there were still people who looked over from time to time.
“Let’s keep looking. What if we can find some information?”
After being in this industry for so long, this was the first time that something unexpected had happened, and it was in such a place.
No one was perfect. He was not 100% sure that he could consider everything. He really did not consider the value of his face.
Just like what Kong Xu said, the other party must be on guard now. The commotion he caused just now was too big, so he might not be able to find anything.
But since he was already here, he had to take a look.
Even if there is no new discovery, being able to appreciate this annual festival is also a kind of harvest.
Since Xu Bai had said so, everyone did as he said.
They continued to follow their original plan and looked around the ship. The first level was quickly completed, and they did not find anything different.
During the search, Xu Bai had been observing the surroundings with his Soul Consciousness. After making sure that there was nothing unusual on the first floor, he led the group along the stairs at the end and slowly walked to the second floor.
Compared to the first floor, the second floor was not much different in terms of layout or other aspects. The reason why it was divided into the first, second, and third floors was to make rational use of space.
Of course, when Xu Bai walked into the second floor, it caused a different commotion, just like the first floor.
It was impossible for him to cover his face. After covering his face, he felt like he was deceiving himself.
After all, in this matter, for example, it might be normal for Ye Zi to cover her face with a veil. However, it was not normal for a man to cover his face with a veil.
The few of them searched again, but still found nothing.
“Kong Xu, try and see if you can calculate anything.”Xu Bai rubbed his chin and asked.
If they wanted to perform divination, they would definitely have to find something related. At this moment, they were on the ship, so they could be considered to be connected.
Therefore, Xu Bai asked Kong Xu to give it a try. If it worked, it would be a good thing. If it didn’t, he would go to the third level to take a look. Kong Xu nodded and took out a copper compass from his waist.
A faint glow appeared on his finger.
He pressed his finger on the copper compass and closed his eyes.
From the outside, this process did not seem to have changed much. Other than the light on his finger, everything was normal.
But in fact, Kong Xu had already started his divination.
The white light followed Kong Xu’s finger and slowly entered the compass. Then, a shocking scene appeared.
The needle on the copper compass began to spin rapidly. It was not rotating at a constant speed, but sometimes it was fast, and sometimes it was ordinary fast. It looked a little obsessive-compulsive.
After a few breaths, Kong Xu opened his eyes and said solemnly,””Lord Xu, I didn’t calculate the exact information, but combined with our current location, I can sense some information.
Look at the needle on the copper plate. It’s moving quickly, which proves that there’s still a connection here. However, there’s too little information, so I can’t calculate the exact situation.”
For his sect, the higher the grade, the fewer clues he needed to divine. However, he was only at the Fifth Stage now, so he naturally needed more information..
