Footsteps?
When the footsteps sounded, everyone present became alert.
They had just taken care of one of the people behind the scenes, and a new danger had appeared.
Everyone looked into the depths of the darkness.
The darkness was so deep that one could not see the bottom, but the sound of footsteps could be heard clearly. Every step they took echoed in the darkness. The sound was distant at first, but as time passed, it slowly became muffled.
This was getting closer and closer.
“Young Master…” Chu Yu tugged on Xu Bails sleeve. She tilted her head and pointed at her heart with her fair finger.”That feeling of disgust is gone.” Xu Bai was slightly stunned. He turned to look at Yun Zihai after hearing what Chu Yu said.
Not far away, Yun Zihai’s fierce aura also disappeared.
What was going on?
According to the situation they encountered at the bottom of the lake, the Gale Country, the Qingyun Academy, and the Great Chu Country were irreconcilable enemies. This was also the reason why it affected the two of them.
The black-robed man had said that the Fengshui Master was dead, and the Fengshui array was no longer there. Hence, Chu Yu’s situation would not exist.
However, it still appeared, and there were footsteps.
The sound of footsteps was one thing, but Chu Yu and Yun Zihai suddenly returned to normal after the sound of footsteps.
But the problem was that the footsteps were still there, and they were getting closer.
Xu Bai couldn’t figure it out, and he didn’t have time to think about the situation before him.
As the footsteps got closer, a figure walked out from the darkness ahead.
The figure’s entire body was enveloped in a golden light. His face could not be seen clearly. Under the golden light, it was as if he had no facial features.
After this golden figure appeared, it stopped not far from Xu Bai and the others. It did not take another step forward.
The crowd fell silent, and no one moved.
The golden figure was not a living thing, but was made of pure gold.
The moment it appeared, the surrounding darkness was dissipating.
The warm light shone on the person’s body, making him feel relaxed and happy.
As soon as the surrounding darkness came into contact with the golden light, it would automatically retreat, as if it was afraid of sticking to it.
At this moment, the silent Yun Zihai spoke.
“It’s fate!” Yun Zihai said loudly,
Xu Bai frowned.
Fate, what was that?
The current situation did not seem very dangerous because Yun Zihai seized this time to explain to Xu Bai.
“The so-called fate is an extremely mysterious thing. It exists in everyone. If the fate is good, everything will be fine. If the fate is bad, bad luck will spread.”
“This thing is extremely mysterious. It’s a skill of the fortune-teller lineage. Oh right, the Fengshui Master is a branch of the fortune-teller.”
“There are many branches of fortune-tellers, such as geomancer, physiognomist, diviner, etc.”
As Yun Zihai explained, Xu Bai gradually understood.
In Xu Bai’s summary, the so-called fate was regarded as luck. If that was the case, then the golden figure was really not human.
“This thing isn’t hostile?”
Ever since the golden figure appeared, he had been standing there without making any movements.
“This should be the fate of our Great Chu…One of them.” Chu Yu took two steps forward and stared at the golden figure in front of her. “After it appeared, not only did I not feel disgusted, but I also felt an extremely comfortable sense of security.”
The fate of Great Chu?
Xu Bai was stunned for a moment, then he seemed to have thought of something.
Could it be that this was also within the calculations of that person in the capital?
From the very beginning until now, Xu Bai had long known that the emperor knew the location of all the tunnels. He could tell from Chu Yu’s ability to read the map.
This is the emperor’s teaching, that is the emperor’s knowing everything.
However, the Emperor pretended not to know and even pretended to send so-called spies.
Now, a golden qi appeared, and it belonged to Great Chu. This was very obvious.
The emperor’s goal was definitely the golden fate.
However, he did not know what the actual operation was.
“It’s just standing here without moving?”Xu Bai muttered.
The current situation was very awkward. The surroundings were pitch-black, but the golden figure was emitting a nouveau riche light. Most importantly, the golden figure did not move.
In Xu Bail s opinion, should they just fight?
Just as he thought of this, the golden figure seemed to sense something. He slowly turned his head and looked directly in Xu Bail s direction.
The face was as smooth as a mirror, without any facial features, but Xu Bai could feel that the other party was looking at him.
As he did not have eyes, he could not see any emotions, nor could he feel any abnormalities. There was no so-called pressure or anything like that.
It was as if he was looking at a stranger.
Then, the golden figure made a move.
Under everyone’s gaze, he slowly bent down and bowed to Xu Bai.
Everyone was shocked.
Fate had no consciousness and was a dead object. Other than being related to luck, it had no other characteristics.
But now, this dead thing actually bowed to Xu Bai.
Although it wasn’t a big bow, the slight bending of his waist was already shocking enough.
Xu Bai said solemnly.
He had never come into contact with such a strange thing as fate energy, but now it was bowing to him. No matter how he looked at it, it felt very strange.
After the golden figure finished this action, it raised its body. Then, in everyone’s eyes, it turned into specks of golden light and gradually disappeared.
Xu Bai and Yun Zihai looked up..
