But soon, Lu Xiaotian withdrew his gaze from the other party and scanned the surroundings, but he didn't find any trace of Xiang Hua or Joe Yu. Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but be a little surprised. Logically speaking, the two of them should have arrived. Why couldn't he see even a shadow of them? Could it be that some unforeseen event had occurred?
While Lu Xiaotian was puzzled, Zhao Li's expression changed and he unknowingly withdrew from the crowd and turned to a relatively remote corner of the pleasure boat.
Lu Xiaotian's mouth twitched slightly. The giant boat was very lively. The low-level cultivators all wanted to win in the competition and win the beauty. At the same time, they also wanted to rely on the big tree that was the Zhenyuan General. Although the Zhenyuan General Hou Lie was only at the Jin Dan stage, his strength was extraordinary and his chances of reaching the Nascent Soul stage were very high. It was naturally best to rely on him early.
However, Lu Xiaotian didn't come for this. His body shrank back and his footsteps were light as he quietly approached Zhao Li.
Zhao Li walked among the crowd for a while, then his figure disappeared into the pavilion on the giant boat. When he entered the pavilion, a layer of restriction automatically opened and let Zhao Li in.
This restriction wasn't very powerful, but more of a warning.
Lu Xiaotian's mind moved and the Shift Mirror in his body trembled slightly. A figure that looked exactly like Lu Xiaotian appeared as light as a feather. However, Lu Xiaotian's current sallow scholar appearance was caused by the Appearance Change Pill, but the Shift Mirror wasn't affected by the Appearance Change Pill. The figure that appeared was a copy of Lu Xiaotian's original appearance. Up until now, Lu Xiaotian had become quite proficient in controlling the Shift Mirror. The shadow was like an ordinary person, walking on the giant boat for a while before disappearing into the restriction. The restriction only trembled slightly, but it did not cause much of a disturbance.
"Huh?" At this moment, in a luxuriously decorated room on the giant boat, a man in brocade robes with a face full of wrinkles and a somewhat ruthless aura frowned, as if he had sensed something.
"Senior, what's wrong?" Zhao Li asked carefully.
"It's okay. You stay here for a while." The wrinkled man's body flashed, and he left the room. After a while, he turned back and came back.
"It's really strange. It's reasonable to say that if no one touches it, the Moon Concealing Formation shouldn't have fluctuated. Could it be that someone else on the ship accidentally touched the restriction?" The wrinkled man pondered and couldn't come up with a good answer.
Back in the room, Zhao Li was still waiting respectfully.
"Do you have any news about the person I asked you to inquire about?" The wrinkled man asked as soon as he returned to his room.
"Not yet," Zhao Li said with an unnatural expression.
"You've infiltrated the Yuan Family for so long, yet you can't even find out anything. What's the point of keeping you around?" The wrinkled man's tone carried a hint of anger.
"Ever since Yuan Jing's death, the Yuan Family has been on tenterhooks. The Yuan Family will notice if I make any unusual movements." Zhao Li smiled bitterly. Under these circumstances, it was already good enough that he was able to stand his ground and not be discovered by the Yuan Family, let alone inquire about information.
"Since that's the case, pay close attention to the young cultivators who have yet to mature and have greater potential. Record everything about them."
"Yes, senior." Zhao Li nodded.
"Try your best to find out about Yuan Ye. Your aptitude is quite good. If you can make enough contributions to the clan, you might have a chance to reach Nascent Soul." The wrinkled man smiled.
After a while, Zhao Li left the room on the giant boat. At this moment, the young cultivators on the giant boat had already entered a state of battle. The sounds of fighting filled the air, but Zhao Li had already left the boat and flew towards the vast surface of the water.
A silhouette withdrew from the barrier and entered Lu Xiaotian's body.
"Just what are the people of the Zhao Clan planning?" Lu Xiaotian frowned slightly. Ever since Yuan Jing was besieged by cultivators from various factions, Lu Xiaotian had sensed that the country was in the middle of a huge scheme. Although understanding what this scheme meant might lead him deeper and deeper into it, if he was completely ignorant, he could be crushed by these factions without knowing anything.
Lu Xiaotian was used to making plans before acting. He didn't like things that were beyond his control. Even if he wasn't necessarily interested in the other party's scheme, he didn't want to passively accept it before a great change arrived.
Not long after Zhao Li left, Lu Xiaotian also followed closely into the vast surface of the water. He followed Zhao Li's tail at a leisurely pace.
The surface of the lake was quite large. After flying for nearly five hundred kilometers, Lu Xiaotian was just about to intercept Zhao Li when Zhao Li suddenly stopped and turned around to look back.
"That's not right. A mere Jin Dan cultivator couldn't have discovered my location." Lu Xiaotian released his consciousness and a sharp murderous intent came from the water.
It seemed that he had fallen into the other party's trap. That Nascent Soul cultivator was very cunning. Lu Xiaotian's eyebrows twitched and he laughed coldly. He extended his left palm and gently waved it in front of him. A ray of sword radiance entered the water. The originally rippling surface of the lake seemed to have been cut open by a sharp blade. With the sword radiance as the center, the ripples surged to both sides, forming a huge wave that was dozens of meters tall. It was a spectacular sight.
Boom — Two completely different mana collided. Lu Xiaotian stood quietly on the surface of the lake amidst the water balls that filled the sky. Droplets of water sprinkled down, but not a single drop touched his body.
"Your Excellency's reaction is very fast. Under such circumstances, being able to calmly receive my attack is indeed something that no ordinary person can do. With your strength, you shouldn't be an unknown person. Why have I never heard of someone like you?" A man dressed in blue like fish skin jumped out of the water, revealing only a pair of sharp eyes. He looked at Lu Xiaotian and said, "Don't worry about it.
"Where's your ugly companion? Why don't I see him? "Lu Xiaotian smiled and looked around. Two small black dots shot toward him like shooting stars.
One of them was the middle-aged man with a face full of wrinkles on the giant boat just now. The other one was the skinny old woman who had participated in the siege of the Yuan Family's cultivators, Yuan Jing, in the Ice Stream Valley. Her face was about the size of a palm, and her triangular eyes were cold. She looked like a cold venomous snake, and her gray hair was covered with a thin layer of ice crystals. When this old woman appeared, a shocking chill attacked, and the surface of the lake showed signs of freezing.
"You're very skilled. You entered my restriction on the giant boat. If it wasn't for the restriction itself, I wouldn't have noticed you at all. I used a little trick to invite you here. Now, tell me, which force do you belong to and what are your intentions?" The middle-aged man with a face full of wrinkles looked at Lu Xiaotian with a smug expression.
