C923 A White Lie

0"Junior Sister, what are you still looking at him for? Could it be that you think he's handsome, so you want him to follow us on the road?" A lady beside Jiang Qi asked her.

Jiang Qi lightly shook her head and said, "I just feel that his strength is not weak. I thought she was a disciple of another academy, maybe I was mistaken."

"He's not weak?" In my opinion, it's at most Flying Into Heaven Stage, and in our eyes, he's just an ant. "The golden robed man said disdainfully, and then he said," Alright, let's hurry on our way, there's still quite a distance between here and the Lonely Soul Island, it'll take at least seven days to get there, and we might even encounter Water Demon s during these seven days. We can't hold on for even a moment.

"The reason why we chose to hurry on like this is because we want to hone ourselves in the sea. Otherwise, we won't be able to get a better ranking in this competition!" Another person said.

"Un, let's go!" Jiang Qi was actually the leader of the group, she responded lightly as she brought a group of people and flew towards the Lonely Soul Island.

Xiang Shaoyun watched them leave from a distance. He had wanted to follow, but he was afraid that they would misunderstand, so he decided to ask someone else.

At this moment, he saw an old man fiddling with his fishing boat. The fishing boat was already very rotten, but this old man was still repairing it. With a little girl helping out, the old and young seemed to be relying on each other.

Xiang Shaoyun walked towards them and said, "Old sir, with this ship broken, no matter how hard you try to repair it, you probably won't be able to get out of the water. There is still some money here, go and buy another ship!"

The old man turned his head and looked at Xiang Shaoyun who was handing over the money. His old face had a smile on it which caused the wrinkles to deepen, and he said gratefully: "Thank you little brother for your good intentions, we will not receive anything without merit."

Xiang Shaoyun did not expect the old man to reject his good intentions so straightforwardly, but he did not give up, "This little guy is currently growing, take it to buy some food to nourish its body, don't starve to death my child!"

The little girl looked at Xiang Shaoyun with her bright eyes and said, "Thank you big brother, Grandfather said that we can't accept things that are given by strangers!"

Xiang Shaoyun was embarrassed.

Initially, he had intended to do a good deed, but he felt dismayed when someone spoke of it in such a manner.

"Is there something that little brother wants to ask about?" The old man asked as if he had experienced many vicissitudes of life, as if he could see through Xiang Shaoyun's thoughts.

Xiang Shaoyun nodded lightly, "Does old sir know which direction the Lonely Soul Island is in?"

"Little brother wants to go to the Lonely Soul Island, I advise you not to. That place is haunted!" The old man revealed a trace of fear and said.

"Old sir, you've been there?" Do you know where it is? " Xiang Shaoyun automatically said the last few words of the old man.

When I was young, I did go out to sea with dozens of people, but when I encountered a storm later on, we were blown into the Lonely Soul Island, so we rested on the island. I had to look after the boat, so we didn't go back to the island, but in the end, almost all of the people that were on the island died, and one person crazily ran back, but he just returned to my ship and died. Before he died, he kept on saying that the island was haunted, and I was scared out of my wits. The old man recalled with fear.

"Old sir, don't be afraid, it might be some lone souls doing something strange. We are all martial artists, so we are going to take care of those lonely souls. Old sir, please tell me which direction we should go!" Xiang Shaoyun revealed a look of righteousness as he spoke.

"Forget it, this young man does not know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is!" The Lonely Soul Island is located in the northeast direction, which is very far away. If I were to row a boat, it would take me at least two to three months to reach it! " The old man pointed in a direction and sighed.

"Thank you, sir!" After Xiang Shaoyun responded, he threw some of the gold and silver in his hand into the old man's hands, and then disappeared in front of the old man.

The old man held the gold and silver in his hand, and showed a faint smile as he sighed: "Young people are too impatient, this old man doesn't know where the Lonely Soul Island is, saying all this is just to let you know the difficulties of leaving, and yet you give me such a generous reward, this old man is ashamed!"

"Grandfather, you lied again!" The little girl pouted unhappily.

"Aiya, little bean sprout!" Grandpa isn't lying, grandpa just doesn't want him to die, and didn't he take the initiative to give us money? There aren't many good people like you anymore! " The old man's words focused on his intestines.

"That big brother is a good person, that's right! We shouldn't have lied to him!" The little girl said naively.

"Yeah, that's why Grandpa is so ashamed!" But Lonely Soul Island is definitely a dangerous place, if I don't let him go, it would be equivalent to saving his life. As the saying goes, saving a person's life is better than building a seven-leveled pagoda, so Grandfather feels no guilt! " The old man retorted.

"Oh, I understand, grandpa. This is a white lie!" The little girl was very smart.

"Yes, yes, a white lie!" The old man quickly echoed.

"Then grandpa also has a part in this white lie, don't you have to give me half of the money!"

"Little bean sprout, are you trying to rob? This is grandpa's pension!"

"It's alright, Little Dou Zhu will help grandpa store it. I'll give it to you to use in your old age. At most, I'll only use a little bit."1

"Uh …"

"..."

If Xiang Shaoyun heard the grandfather-grandson pair's words, he would definitely be angered until he vomited blood. He only felt pity when looking at the pitiful old man and young girl, who didn't seem to be practitioners, but he didn't think that the other party would actually point him in the wrong direction, causing him to really walk in the wrong direction.

At this time, Xiang Shaoyun sat on Silver Body, and following behind him was Ai Qi, flying at full speed in one direction.

Three days later, Xiang Shaoyun and the rest were already in the midst of an endless ocean. There was no sign of anyone at all, nor was there any sight of any land at all;

"No, I travelled at full speed for three days. If I headed in the right direction, I would definitely meet the Divine Deer Academy disciples, but I didn't notice them at all. This damned old liar! " Only now did he realize that he had been deceived.

Xiang Shaoyun decisively stopped, but in his heart, he was incomparably anxious. If he did not make it to Lonely Soul Island, he would be destined to not be able to make it to the island, and would not be able to participate in the Four Great Academies' battle.

"No, I have to think of a way!" After Xiang Shaoyun said that, his brain quickly worked, and quickly thought of a way, he said to the silver and said, "Silver, go down and grab a few Water Demon and ask them for directions."

He believed that the Water Demon knew the location of the Lonely Soul Island.

"Yes, boss. I'm good at that!" "En!" The silver immediately roared in the air.

Roar!
