However, Yu Nantian was still cautious. He did not land the Void Traveller immediately, but instead, let it float at 500 to 600 feet in mid-air, so he could give it a thorough examination. After checking, he landed the craft.
”So meticulous but lacking in confidence, he will never achieve anything great!” Great Dark Lord Du said harshly after seeing Yu Nantian's actions. He had already lost interest in Yu Nantian, who was supposed to be the next rising star of the Yu family from Divine Wind Palace.
After carrying out a careful survey of the area for some time, Yu Nantian finally let the Void Traveller land on the island. The landing place Yu Nantian had chosen was a beach. This was an island built from volcano lava. Hence, there was a thick coat of tephra all around, and the sand was very soft and fine.
The space boat came to a halt, but Yu Nantian did not move. He just stood there, as if he was waiting for something to happen.
”Young Master Yu, we have already landed. Should we look into repairing the Void Traveller?” Seeing Yu Nantian standing motionless, Great Dark Lord Du stepped forward and asked.
”Oh, there is no rush, not everyone is here yet!”
”Not everyone is here?” Great Dark Lord Du was taken aback at first, then later he understood what he meant. He laughed, ”Young Master Yu, I don't think anyone else is coming. We have already indicated our intent to use this place temporarily to fix the boat. We are only passing by, so no one will be coming out to greet us. Situations like this happen all the time!”
”Really?” Yu Nantian apparently did not think that Great Dark Lord Du would be so blunt and did not take his word seriously.
”Yes, it's true!” An expert from the Divine Wind Palace who was listening to their conversation, opened his mouth to reiterate this point. ”The owner of the island was initially against us fixing the boat here, but he gave in on account of Zhou Bao's power. His self-esteem has already been badly damaged, why would he still be willing to appear in front of us!”
”Yu Nantian didn't believe that until he heard what the expert said. He could not conceal the blush that spread over his face and said, ”Since that's the case, let's begin the repairs!”
”After speaking, he turned around and said to those that were still on the Void Traveller, ”Everyone, I'm really sorry. The Void Traveller is a secret asset belonging to my family. Now that it needs to be repaired, there are some secrets that should not be revealed to outsiders. Hence, I hope that everyone can disembark before we proceed!”
The remaining 11 people exchanged glances with each other, each indicating that they understood what was behind the meaning of Yu Nantian's appeal. They jumped off the vessel at the same time. After that, a hazy layer of golden light covered the whole vessel, preventing all from seeing what was going on inside.
”He thinks all of us have the same attitude, that is probably due to his suspicious mind!” one of the experts from Snow Mountain Great Wheel Temple snorted coldly when he heard Nantian's request
”Shut up, this is his family secret, it is only right that we are not supposed to see it!” At these words, the leading monk's expression changed and he and snorted loudly. However, judging by his expression, this monk shared the same sentiments regarding keeping the secrets of the family away from prying eyes.
Zhou Bao was not interested in getting involved with the dispute. He left the crowd and started walking along the sandy beach.
Taking a walk along the beach was something he had always wanted to do in his past life. But he was always busy with work and never had the luxury to do so. After entering this world, he was even busier than before and still did not have the time to indulge in this sort of leisure activity. Who would have thought that he would have the time to do so now.
The thick layer of tephra on the beach was soft and very comfortable to walk on. Leaving a trail of footprints behind, Zhou Bao walked for some time. He carefully observed the island and realized that the island did not have that many visitors. There were also not many living things, either. The whole place gave off a deadly vibe. Although it had more essence of the world than the Seven-deity Regions, this place was far from being a Fairyland or Cave Paradise.
A place like this was not appealing. He had no idea why the owner of the island chose this place as his dwelling.
”He must be not a powerful person. If not, he wouldn't have chosen such a lousy place!” Zhou Bao thought silently to himself, finally getting rid of some of the fears that were dwelling in his heart.
Their coming over like this was quite dangerous. The owner may have been aware that Zhou Bao was too powerful to be his match. But he could still set up traps around the island and let them fall into it.
They had no idea how long the current owner had taken over the island, and whether there were any ambushes awaiting them. Getting off the boat like this was not safe at all.
This was a dangerous place!
