She wore a veil, making her face impossible to see clearly. In the night, her whole figure seemed as mysterious and ethereal as moonlight.
She was merely standing at the stern, but Tang Changsheng had not even noticed when she appeared. That alone was enough to shock him so badly he nearly broke out in a downpour of sweat.
"Only a Heavenly Immortal could make me tremble like this..." Tang Changsheng said with a wry smile.
That tired joke made the woman at the bow laugh.
It was a strangely subtle feeling. She wore a veil and smiled faintly.
He should not have been able to see her smile at all, yet somehow he could feel it. It held an incomparable beauty, but Tang Changsheng did not dare look for long.
"Let me ask you something. Sailing out to sea alone took some nerve. Did you see anything unusual?"
"Anything unusual?" Tang Changsheng was slightly startled. "No. The wind and waves have been calm all the way here. I haven't seen a thing!"
The woman nodded. "Keep this. If you encounter a streak of red light, remember to tell me!"
With that, she tossed Tang Changsheng a pearl.
It was a Message-Transmitting Pearl. Once shattered, it would immediately send out a signal.
Whether across ten million miles or across the three realms and the Netherworld, the signal would still reach its destination.
But such things were exceedingly rare. Tang Changsheng had only heard of them from others.
At the very least, it was something Immortals used among themselves. Tang Changsheng's heart tightened again.
Yet the woman had already vanished without a trace, as though she had never appeared.
This time, Tang Changsheng did not dare speak carelessly. He stood quietly for a while before finally letting out a soft breath.
