Hearing Yao's words, Lu An couldn't help but be startled.
Enter the ocean again?
Lu An looked at the pier in the distance. Because Nanhai City was originally the largest port city in the southern part of the Tiancheng Country, it had a very important impact on the economy of the entire southern part of the Tiancheng Country, so the Great Yue State did not cause any damage when occupying it. The ships at the pier were as orderly as before, even more frequent than before.
There were indeed ships, and in the distance, there was also a luxurious ship similar to the one Lu An used to go out to sea. However, Lu An's first thought was to refuse, for two reasons. First, it would delay his cultivation, and second, he was afraid of the ocean.
Yes, Lu An was indeed afraid of the ocean. After all, the last time he went out to sea, even now, Lu An still felt a lingering fear. In the ocean, the means he could use were pitifully few, and there were too many powerful creatures in the ocean. Even now, he did not feel that he could fight against them.
Especially the last time he encountered a huge creature in the sea, the Ninth Heaven Sacred Flame, which he had always been proud of, could only burn the internal organs of the creature very slowly, which was completely beyond Lu An's expectations.
Lu An slightly frowned, took a light breath, looked at Yao and said, "It's too dangerous, in case something happens, it won't be good."
"We are not going deep into the ocean, just a few days on the sea." Yao saw that Lu An didn't agree, so she took a step forward to get closer to Lu An. She hurriedly said, "Moreover, our strength isn't what it was in the past. If something really happens, we can fly at the very least!"
Lu An frowned when he heard this. Indeed, Yao could fly now. This was much better than before. But for some reason, Lu An was very worried about going out to sea.
He still remembered that when he was near the pier, he had dived into the water, but when the sailors on the sea kept waving and calling him back, he was shocked to find that he had gone far away. At that time, when he looked back, there was only endless darkness behind him, and he even heard some kind of voice calling him from the ocean. These things were still fresh in Lu An's memory.
Coming to Nanhai City again, it was as if everything had happened yesterday.
It was precisely because of this that Lu An had a lingering fear. However, while he was afraid, he was also very curious about what was calling out to him in the ocean. He believed it wasn't his misperception, he really wanted to enter the ocean to try again, if there wasn't any danger to his life.
"Just like last time, we'll go out to sea for half a month." Looking at Lu An from afar, her beautiful face was filled with anticipation as she said, "After returning to South Sea City, I will immediately set up the Celestial World Gate and return."
Hearing Yao's words, Lu An glanced at her and frowned. After pondering for a long time, he finally took a deep breath and said. "Alright, but you have to listen to me when you're at sea."
"When did I not listen to you?" Yao suddenly laughed happily. She pulled Lu An's sleeve and said, "The ship over there is about to depart. Let's board it quickly!"
Since they decided to go out to sea, Lu An didn't hesitate any longer. Together with Yao, they arrived at the luxurious ship and asked for the two best rooms. Regarding Lu An And Yao not staying in the same room, the ship's staff was very surprised.
Sure enough, they didn't have to wait for long. When it was close to noon, the ship set sail and set off towards the ocean. This ship's level of luxury was not inferior to the previous ship. There were many rich people on board, as if the war had nothing to do with them.
Lu An didn't ask for any maids, he sat cross-legged in his room and cultivated. Yao also sat in Lu An's room. Although she couldn't disturb Lu An's cultivation, she was still very happy to be in the same room as Lu An.
Lu An cultivated, she also cultivated. The two of them were completely different from the other guests, they didn't play around on the ship. Until the banquet, Lu An finally opened his eyes and stopped cultivating. At this moment, Yao also felt Lu An standing up, she also stood up.
"Let's go get something to eat." Lu An said.
Yao nodded. After waiting for an entire day, she finally got to have some alone time with Lu An. Together with Lu An, she went to the banquet restaurant to eat. There was a good performance on the stage, and the guests in the Sky Room were all given the best seats. The others looked at the two people at the table and couldn't help but cast curious gazes.
At this moment, a woman's voice suddenly appeared beside Lu An. There was obvious surprise in her voice as she said, "Young Master Lu?"
Lu An was startled when he heard this. When he turned his head to look, he was also stunned.
He remembered this woman. This woman was none other than Xu Li, the ship's supervisor when he came to South Sea City last time.
Seeing Xu Li, Lu An frowned. He didn't have a good impression of this woman. At that time, after landing on the island, he offended a playboy from South Sea City because of Yao. That playboy plotted to kill him, and this woman was one of them. Although he knew that this woman was forced by power and he didn't kill her, it didn't mean that he didn't care.
Not only did he remember, but Yao also remembered. Looking at this woman, Yao's eyebrows slightly furrowed.
"It's really you, Young Master Lu, and Miss Yao. I didn't expect to see you in South Sea City!" Xu Li said happily.
However, compared to Xu Li's excitement, Lu An didn't respond at all. He even said coldly, "So it's Supervisor Xu. I'm very curious. How did you survive?"
That's right. Lu An was indeed very curious. That day, the Heaven Fiend Pirates attacked, and the island was full of snakes. It could be said that almost all the tourists died. If he didn't remember wrongly, this woman wasn't a Heavenly Master. How did she survive?
"This …" Xu Li looked at Lu An's indifferent eyes. She knew that she had done something wrong to them. She could only say apologetically, "At that time, something happened on the island. The Heaven Fiend Pirates immediately ran away, and I was captured by them. Later on, their people came ashore, and I escaped by myself."
Lu An's eyebrows deepened. It wasn't because he was angry at Xu Li, but because a charming woman like Xu Li was captured by pirates. It was imaginable what would happen.
When he thought of this, Lu An didn't want to pursue the past anymore. He said, "Then why are you on this ship?"
"I'm now the supervisor of this ship." Xu Li quickly smiled and said, "Not only me, Xiaotong is on this ship too!"
"Xiaotong?" Lu An was startled. Naturally, he remembered Xiaotong. She was the maidservant who took care of him when he went out to sea. All the disasters on the sea were overcome by him, Yao, and Xiaotong. However, he left Xiaotong in the care of Liu Hongchang's family. He thought that since the Liu family left, Xiaotong would also leave, so he didn't continue to look for her. Why was she on this ship?
Xu Li saw Lu An's confusion and quickly explained, "Xiaotong was indeed taken care of by the Liu family. However, after the war, because Liu Hongchang was a disciple of the Mastery Sky Mountain, he left with his family because he was afraid that others would investigate. Initially, he wanted to bring Xiaotong along, but Xiaotong insisted on staying behind. She stayed behind … to wait for you, Young Master Lu. "
Lu An was startled. He didn't expect Xiaotong to do that. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
Naturally, he was happy that someone cared about him. However, Lu An felt that he was a sinner if she delayed her own future because of him.
Seeing Lu An in a daze, Xu Li thought that Lu An was simply shocked. She quickly said, "Young Master Lu, don't worry. I've taken good care of Xiaotong. She's not a maidservant on this ship, but a manager second only to me. Wait here for a moment, I'll call her over right now! "
After saying that, Xu Li quickly turned around and left, jogging towards the outside. Lu An looked at Xu Li's departing figure and frowned slightly. His hand that was holding the chopsticks was motionless, as if his entire person was frozen.
Looking at Lu An from afar, she was different from Xu Li. She knew what Lu An was thinking about. However, even so, she didn't know what to say. At a time like this, anything she said would be wrong. This was because she and Xiaotong were the same type of people.
Sure enough, the two of them didn't have to wait for long. Not long after, Xu Li appeared in the banquet again. Behind her, there was a delicate and pretty lady. This lady's face was filled with urgency and anticipation. It was as if nothing could be more important than what was going to happen next.
When Xu Li brought her to Lu An And Yao, Xiaotong stood in front of Lu An. Her body was completely frozen, and many people looked over curiously.
They knew Xu Li and Xiaotong's status on this ship. Who was this young man? How could he make these two ladies stand in front of him?
Just when everyone was curious, Xiaotong suddenly knelt down. At the same time, she said with a choked voice, "Xiaotong greets Young Master …"
