If everything goes as expected, the one with the highest cultivation level on this Whalewatcher Boat is the Wailing Wanderer of the Fake Pill Realm.
Besides him, there are Ye Zhiqiu, who has already broken through to the Peak of Foundation Establishnt, and the captain of this large ship, a Peak Foundation Establishnt Cultivator nad Luo Sifu.
Without a Golden Core Cultivator, no one would be able to detect my Divine Sense.
Therefore, Ji Yuan, sitting cross-legged on the cushion in the cabin, silently released his Divine Sense.
The first thing he saw was naturally the corridor outside this room, but when his Divine Sense attempted to penetrate other cabins, he felt a faint hint of resistance.
He could break through it, but there was no need to expend his Divine Sense on this.
Furthermore, he could see that the restrictions in the cabins of this Whalewatcher Boat could only prevent Divine Sense below the Golden Core level, for those above... it couldn’t withstand them.
To set up asures that could resist a Golden Core Cultivator, naturally, it would take a Golden Core Cultivator to set them up.
But clearly, the ancestor of the Luo Family wouldn’t take action for such trivial matters.
When Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense spread to the top cabin, he happened to see Ye Zhiqiu walking out of the Wailing Wanderer’s room and returning to her room with an expressionless face.
Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense followed her in just like that.
At the mont Ye Zhiqiu closed the door, Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense was even severed for a mont, but fortunately, it quickly reconnected.
After Ye Zhiqiu returned to her room, she pasted a few talismans on the doors and windows, then started... changing clothes!
Sensing the inappropriate situation, Ji Yuan hurriedly transmitted a ssage into Ye Zhiqiu’s sea of consciousness.
"Long ti no see, Daoist Ye."
Ye Zhiqiu, who was just about to undress, quickly put her clothes back on, and in the next instant, a Flying Sword was already hovering in front of her, while a string of Treasure Pearls on her wrist shimred with a faint green light, protecting her whole body.
"Who is it!"
Ye Zhiqiu found the voice sowhat familiar but couldn’t believe it.
That’s why she assud a combat stance, although there weren’t any significant Spiritual Qi fluctuations from her. Otherwise, the Wailing Wanderer in the next room would have sensed sothing was off.
"It’s , Qiu Qianhai of the Great Love Sect. Has Daoist Ye forgotten ?"
Ji Yuan’s voice carried a hint of sadness, as if sowhat hurt.
"No, how co you’re here too, Daoist Qiu? And you can even transmit ssages to ?"
After confirming she wasn’t mistaken, Ye Zhiqiu put away the Green Bamboo Flying Sword in front of her, only asking in a sowhat puzzled manner.
"I never expected to encounter you here either. As for the ssage transmission... it was just a coincidence that I could break through the restrictions inside this cabin; there’s no need for Daoist Ye to panic."
Ji Yuan casually concocted a reason, and whether she believed it or not was up to Ye Zhiqiu.
"I see... By the way, Daoist Qiu, where have you been all these years? I saw the Blood Demon seed to be looking for you when I was at the Ghost Seeking Cave previously, and later I couldn’t find you despite looking for a long ti."
Ye Zhiqiu eagerly asked.
"Sigh."
Ji Yuan sighed. "Don’t ntion it. Back then, I exhausted my only escape treasure and narrowly saved my hide. It’s been hard to get so peace before the world began descending into chaos again."
"I originally intended to stay away from the continent to cultivate on Ice and Fire Island for a while, but I ended up eting Daoist Ye and the Sect Leader here..."
"It seems like destiny indeed."
"How are Daoist Ye and the Sect Leader lately? If everything is fine, I’ll go pay my respects to the Sect Leader and then return to the sect."
"No..."
Ye Zhiqiu, who just sat down, hurriedly refused.
"Hmm? Why is that?"
Ji Yuan asked, puzzled.
Ye Zhiqiu fell silent, not imdiately answering Ji Yuan’s question this ti but rather deeply pondering sothing. After a good while, she finally replied:
"Daoist Qiu, can I trust you?"
Recalling the character of "this Qiu Qianhai," Ji Yuan rembered him as quite straightforward, unrestrained, and unconcerned about minor matters, so he didn’t hesitate at all and chuckled.
"Anyway, old Qiu trusts Daoist Ye, but it’s up to you whether you trust ."
"Alright, listen to , and you’ll understand."
Ye Zhiqiu spoke with her inner voice: "After leaving the Ghost Seeking Cave, I left Great Love City, fled far west, and eventually hid in a small town.
I thought I would be safe after escaping, but unexpectedly, three months following my escape from the Ghost Seeking Cave... the Sobbing Zhenren suddenly appeared at my doorstep."
"He attacked without a word, severely injuring before asking if I was willing to continue following him. I didn’t know his intentions, so I nodded in agreent. He then asked to hand over a wisp of my Divine Soul. When I hesitated for just a mont, he attacked again."
"He even said he had given a chance and that I shouldn’t be ungrateful."
"He ntioned that when he found Deng Pinghai, he didn’t even offer a chance before he killed Deng Pinghai."
"I had no choice but to hand over a wisp of my Divine Soul, barely surviving."
After listening, Ji Yuan remained silent for a long ti before continuing, "So..."
"So if you reveal yourself now, he’s most likely going to demand your Divine Soul as well; otherwise, he won’t trust anyone." Before Ji Yuan finished, Ye Zhiqiu had already proactively completed his thoughts.
"Most likely."
Ji Yuan feigned a sigh, as if disappointed and saddened by the prospect of not being able to return to his sect.
"Then what about that Blood Demon who was chasing us back then? What happened to it? Did the Wailing Wanderer manage to kill it?"
