"This little bastard must be crazy. In such a short period of time, he actually tried to open my storage ring again. Fellow Daoist Dan Zhouzi, can we be faster?"
"No problem!" Dan Zhouzi laughed out loud. His expression was also filled with anticipation. He controlled the golden beetle with all his strength, causing its speed to increase by several times in an instant. It tore through the air and flew towards the direction that Shan Lingzi had sensed the second time!
The reason why Shan Lingzi had sensed the aura of the storage ring the second time was not Wang Baole's fault … Previously, he had already had the urge to throw away the storage ring, so how could he possibly check it again?
According to his original plan, he had planned to check the storage ring after he reached the Planet realm. However, what made him want to cry was that the storage ring actually opened on its own once again!
The paper human cutout's strange laughter still echoed in his mind. His soul still buzzed, and his cultivation still trembled. All of this happened extremely suddenly. Even though Wang Baole had experienced it once before, when he felt it again, he still almost fell while flying.
As Wang Baole's expression changed drastically, before he could let out a helpless roar, he saw in the distant starry sky … that familiar Specter Ship. As the paper human cutout on it paddled, it became blurry again and again and approached the ship again and again.
Just like before, this Specter Ship that was filled with an ancient aura stopped in front of Wang Baole. The paper human cutout on it stopped paddling and raised its left hand, summoning Wang Baole.
At this moment, the thirty-odd people on the ship all opened their eyes. Their pupils constricted as they stared at Wang Baole. The surprise in their expressions was clearly even stronger than before.
Wang Baole even discovered that there was actually an additional person among these young men and women.
The additional person was a skinny young man. He looked to be around eighteen or nineteen years old, but his exact age was unknown. At this moment, he clearly sensed the actions of the people around him. Thus, when he looked at Wang Baole, there was some curiosity in his eyes.
Wang Baole sighed and simply waved his hand to greet the people on the ship. He felt that since it was the second time they had met, it could be considered fate.
"How have you been, everyone? Heh heh …" As Wang Baole spoke, he noticed that amidst the surprised looks on the young men and women's faces, there was also a hint of impatience. That made him unhappy.
Wang Baole thought to himself, 'Why are you guys so impatient? I'm the one who's impatient. I didn't want to board the ship, but the ship just had to appear a second time.' With that thought in mind, Wang Baole couldn't be bothered to continue greeting them. He looked helplessly at the paper figurine at the bow of the ship that didn't seem to know exhaustion and was constantly waving its hand.
After weighing the pros and cons in his heart, Wang Baole still cupped his fists and bowed deeply.
"Senior, I'm not done with my business. Um … I won't disturb you any longer." With that, Wang Baole retreated quickly and then teleported away.
This time, Wang Baole was certain that his words had been effective. This was because when he appeared in another area, the ghost ship that had appeared with him the first time didn't chase after him. Instead, when it appeared a second time, it didn't magically appear around him.
When combined with the scene of the ship's first appearance, the answer was obvious.
However, this answer caused Wang Baole to sigh again. This was because he was certain of one thing, and that was … the paper figurine on the ship definitely had a mind of its own. That was why it could understand his words.
"If it has a mind of its own, then that means the paper figurine in my ring of holding also has a mind of its own." Wang Baole frowned. He had long since come to the conclusion that the ghost ship's appearance had something to do with the paper figurine in his ring of holding. When the paper figurine smiled, the ship appeared.
In his opinion, perhaps what he thought was a smile was actually a form of communication between the paper figurines.
"Forget it. For now, it doesn't seem like there's any danger. But this ship … I'm not going to board it!" Wang Baole snorted inwardly. He didn't like being forced into a corner. In a flash, he increased his speed once again and continued heading toward the Divine Eye civilization.
However, deep down, he was already prepared for the ghost ship to appear again if the paper figurine in his ring of holding were to laugh again.
"I'll just take it that the paper figurine in my ring of holding is chatting with the ghost ship's paper figurine … I can't stop them from chatting, right?" Wang Baole comforted himself. Thus, for the next ten days, every two or three days … the paper figurine's laughter would appear in his mind. The ghost ship would descend again, beckon again, and Wang Baole would reject it again …
When the ghost ship appeared for the sixth time … Wang Baole was already used to it, and his expression was extremely calm. However, the thirty-odd young men and women on the ship were all in extremely bad moods.
If it were anyone else, they would be worried that the same person would affect their journey if they kept seeing the same person and refused to board the ship. Thus, when they saw Wang Baole for the sixth time, some of them, who had been impatient at most, finally exploded in anger.
"Are you coming or not!"
"If you're not coming, then get lost!"
Even though he knew that these people had extraordinary backgrounds, Wang Baole was still angry when he heard them speak in such a manner. He thought to himself, I'm not going to board the ship. Only idiots would board. With that thought, he glared at the people on the ship.
"What, you want to hit me? Come, come, come, come. Let's fight and see who's the boss! "
"You!" The people who had just spoken angrily shot to their feet and glared at Wang Baole. Their eyes shone with cold light, but their hearts were filled with helplessness. After all, as soon as they had boarded the ship, they had realized that they couldn't disembark!
Wang Baole's eyes flickered as he realized what was going on. His words grew even more arrogant. "You what? If you've got what it takes, then come down. Let me tell you, if you don't, then you're a grandson. You can't even be a son. Come on, Grandpa is waiting for you!"
In the face of Wang Baole's arrogant provocation, the paper man's movements didn't change at all. It continued to wave at him. As for the people who had been glaring angrily at Wang Baole, they began to calm down. One of them, a horse-faced young man, narrowed his eyes and suddenly spoke up.
"Kid, do you dare to tell us your name!?"
"If you want me to say it, then I'll say it. Horse-faced grandson, come on, tell daddy your name!" Wang Baole picked at his ears. He had already been irritated by the repeated appearances of the Specter Galleon, and was also puzzled. That was why, although he seemed to be quarreling with someone, his heart was actually calm. He wanted to use the quarrel to find out more about these people, and from there, learn more about the galleon.
The words "Horse-faced grandson" caused the young man's eyes to flicker with killing intent.
"Frigid Cloud Sect, Li Linzi!"
"Qinghai Dao, Wang Yishan!"
"Beize Nation, Du Fei!"
"Teck Clan, Ye Luo!"
Li Linzi wasn't the only one who answered Wang Baole. The other people who had quarreled with him also spoke up coldly. Although Wang Baole didn't know any of their origins, based on their expressions, as well as the gazes of the people around him, Wang Baole could tell that these Sects and Nations had quite a powerful background.
"Prodigies of the various Sects?" This conjecture instantly appeared in Wang Baole's mind. There was a similarity between these people's cultivation levels. Although Wang Baole had noticed it before, he hadn't paid much attention to it. Now, he suddenly realized that something was very wrong … because they were all at the perfected Spirit Immortal Realm!
"Your turn!" Horse-faced Li Linzi said slowly before he could continue thinking.
Wang Baole glared at him. He thought to himself, 'Do you think I'm afraid of you? You just have some background, right? I have one too.'
"Xie Family, Xie Dalu!" Wang Baole said calmly. He thought to himself, 'Who doesn't know how to brag? I'm Xie Haiyang's elder brother.' That was what he thought, but on the surface, Wang Baole put on a proud and aloof expression. After he said that, the expressions of the thirty-odd people on the galleon, especially those who had spoken up before, changed abruptly. Their pupils constricted, but the shock and confusion on their faces made Wang Baole realize that they were suspicious of his identity.
That was normal. If they completely believed him, then there would be a problem.
But no matter what, perhaps out of caution, after Wang Baole said the three words "Xie Dalu", everyone on the galleon fell silent.
Wang Baole also realized that this Specter Ship was extraordinary. But the more it was so, the more vigilant he was. Therefore, he cupped his fists at the paper cutout on the galleon. After rejecting him again, his body flashed and he was about to leave as usual.
But this time … something unexpected happened!
