Jiang Wang was startled.
Someone had been hiding nearby, and he hadn't even noticed?
At least when it came to concealing himself, Fu Yanqing's skill far surpassed his.
Only after Fu Yanqing called him out did Jiang Wang sense the faint disturbance.
Fu Yanqing had already closed his five fingers, and a figure was forced out of hiding, appearing before them in a sorry state.
"Chu Mi?" Jiang Wang's gaze turned icy.
"Wait, wait, don't get the wrong idea!" Chu Mi looked panicked, waving both hands. "I wasn't trying to tie you up and hand you over. I don't even have the ability to do that..."
Jiang Wang's record of fighting nine opponents alone was enough to make him afraid to even entertain the thought.
"Cut the nonsense," Fu Yanqing said bluntly. "Why were you skulking around nearby?"
"Master Qing, if I'd known you were here, I never would've followed!" Chu Mi was clearly even more afraid of Fu Yanqing, who had spent so long on Ding Wei Floating Island. He hurriedly explained, "I saw that Young Master Jiang had an extraordinary background. Island Master Ding gave him medicine and told him to go rest and recuperate. I know a little about Soul Jade Spirit Liquid. It takes effect as soon as you take it; there's no need to recuperate. So I thought..."
"Thought what?" Fu Yanqing asked, his face expressionless.
Only then did Jiang Wang notice the two nearly imperceptible black lines twisting behind Chu Mi. They were probably shadows controlled by Fu Yanqing. They had forced Chu Mi out, and now had him so uneasy he could barely stand still.
Fu Yanqing was young, yet was called "Master Qing." Clearly, he enjoyed tremendous prestige on Ding Wei Floating Island.
In the end, Chu Mi didn't dare hide anything
