Heavenly Secrets Tower Couldn't Make Sense of the Runes

Hanyu was extremely quick-witted. The moment he stepped outside, he vanished into hiding. The mist spread at incredible speed, and with his practiced ease, he could leave Chen Xixi groping blindly in an instant as she chased after him.

Nowhere. She couldn't find him anywhere!

Chen Xixi looked all around, even releasing her aura to search, but he was like a stone sinking into the sea—not so much as a ripple.

She was so furious that she couldn't help revealing her true nature. She stamped her feet over and over, and the resulting surge left Thousand Illusions dazed for a brief moment.

That caused a whole group of cultivators stationed on deck to lose their senses.

As for Hanyu, he had long since slipped onto another ship.

Ji Wushi was straightening his robes on deck when a startling voice rang out of nowhere.

"No peeing over the side of the ship!"

He was so startled he nearly jumped overboard.

When he saw the figure gradually appear, he was almost rolling his eyes. His lips twitched, and he couldn't help sighing.

"Do you know how annoying you are? You've already got this kind of status, and you're still acting like a child."

He was already the idol of the younger generation of cultivators across the Central Continent, yet he still acted so frivolously.

If it were Ji Wushi, he'd have long since cultivated an immortal bearing and kept a solemn face.

Alas, he was not Hanyu!

Hanyu, meanwhile, was incredibly curious. What status could he possibly have? Was there something else he didn't know?

Ji Wushi nearly blurted out "Heavenly Emperor Hanyu," but then jolted as he remembered Quan Xiaotong and the others' instructions, and hurriedly clamped his mouth shut.

Then he changed the subject.

"What brings you over here?"
