Lu Xiao took a shower and, incidentally, trimd his hair.

During those years in the team, he learned quite a few skills, among which was cutting his own hair.

Of course, there wasn’t much of a hairstyle to speak of, just a classic buzz cut.

"Still handso as ever, no hairstyle can hide it," Lu Xiao couldn’t help admiring himself in the mirror.

He sported the sa buzz cut when he had just returned to Hai City from the military, which utterly captivated Qin Youling.

"Wonder how she’s doing now," the mory of Qin Youling made Lu Xiao sowhat miss her generous embrace.

"Maybe, should I go see her?"

"Nah, better not disturb her."

"But what if she’s still hung up on ? I can’t keep her waiting her whole life."

"Right, just go and make it clear to her, so she can find soone suitable."

Lu Xiao blabbered to himself.

The main problem was that he had no idea where to find Xuanyuan Pan Shi, so... just go wherever the wind took him.

After organizing his belongings, Lu Xiao dressed and left his room.

The corridor was quiet. Most of the guests were resting in their rooms at midday.

Lu Xiao made a call to Liuli Hong, arranging to et on the deck.

After ten minutes, Lu Xiao t Liuli Hong and Yan Yun.

"Lu Xiao, what’s up? Why aren’t you taking a nap in the middle of the day?" Liuli Hong waved his hand, clueless about what Lu Xiao was up to.

Wouldn’t it have been better to et in the cabin? Why run up to the deck for crying out loud, with the wind so strong.

"Master, I’ve already signed the contract. Don’t worry, I will never leave you, I absolutely won’t do like Senior Chen Fei, even if I die, it has to be by your side," Yan Yun stated firmly.

Lu Xiao smiled, "Good, then stay with Seventeenth Bureau."

"Old Luli, I’m leaving my thick-headed disciple in your care."

Hearing Lu Xiao’s words, both Liuli Hong and Yan Yun were taken aback, feeling like he was giving last instructions.

"Lu Xiao, what are you doing?"

Before Liuli Hong could finish his inquiry, Lu Xiao had already jumped onto the railing.

"I think you two are right, I did suffer a severe heartache, and I just can’t get over it."

"So I’ve decided to travel the world, to soothe my wounded heart with ti and beautiful sights."

"I truly appreciate you guys; without you, I wouldn’t have made such a determined decision."

"If it’s short, three years; if it’s long, then ten. Rest assured, I’ll definitely co back."

"See you!"

Without waiting for Liuli Hong and Yan Yun to react, Lu Xiao jumped down.

Liuli Hong and Yan Yun were both dumbstruck. Damn, what the heck?

Only when they saw Lu Xiao gliding away on a life raft did the two co to their senses.

"Mr. Liuli! Is this what you ant by having everything under control? Is this what you ant by the master being deeply hurt by love?"

Confronted by Yan Yun’s question, even Liuli Hong couldn’t help swallowing hard.

Uh, it seed... not quite what he had thought.

Lu Xiao seed... surprisingly okay?

Damn, is this kid such a playboy? Not even heartbroken after breaking up with his girlfriend?

"Didn’t you hear what your master said? He has had an epiphany; he’s healing his wounds." Of course, Liuli Hong’s response was as tough as ever.

Yan Yun looked back and forth between Liuli Hong and the receding figure of Lu Xiao, finally sighing out all her emotions.

She was powerless to do anything now, let alone qualified to ask Lu Xiao to stay.

"Within two years, I must beco invincible, and then I’ll bring master back!" Yan Yun shouted loudly, and then turned to leave the deck.

Liuli Hong pursed his lips; there goes another one set on finding their master.

This Lu Xiao kid had likely embarked on a journey to search for his master, Xuanyuan Pan Shi.

"It really is a ntor ntee tradition, epic," Liuli Hong muttered, then turned back to the cabin.

...

Three days later, Lu Xiao regretted his decision.

For three whole damned days, 72 hours, 4320 minutes, 259200 seconds, not a single ship in sight.

Like an orphan on the sea, he had drifted on a lifeboat for three days.

Key point was, he hadn’t brought anything with him when he left, not even a bottle of mineral water.

While at his level, his endurance to hunger and dehydration was extrely strong, going without food and drink was inevitably uncomfortable.

"Acting cool is fun for a mont, but it ends in cremation." Lu Xiao lay sprawled on the lifeboat, his expression one of utter collapse.

Now, he had no clue where he was, even though he’d previously thought of returning to Hai City, thought of going to see Qin Youling...

Sure enough, even the heavens wouldn’t allow him to be a damn deadbeat.

Another three days passed, and Lu Xiao began to collect rainwater...

Who knew how many more days he’d have to drift at sea, and if it went on too long, even with his resilience, he wouldn’t hold up.

As for food, there was no rush to worry about that; after all, he was a Super Tier big shot. Diving into the sea to catch a few fish to eat was a piece of cake for him.

Five days later, Lu Xiao started making dried fish.

He cut the caught fish into strips and then dried and stored them.

Sotis he’d also take the opportunity to gobble down a seabird or two, as eating only fish wasn’t nutritionally balanced.

No choice, if by bad luck he had to drift for several months or even half a year, it was still more reliable to prepare so food.

Twenty-one days had passed since Lu Xiao left the cruise ship, and by now, he had utterly given up.

He tied his legs and arms firmly to the life raft and let it drift wherever.

Let it be wherever it be, his main approach was to leave it to chance.

After securing himself, Lu Xiao couldn’t be bothered to keep track of ti anymore, either sleeping or ditating with closed eyes.

Truth be told, his Inner Qi had made significant leaps in progress during this ti.

He was basically, legitimately stepping into the ranks of the Super Tier.

Lu Xiao was woken by successive shouts.

When he opened his eyes, he was still at sea, the sky as blue as ever, the water as dazzling as ever.

The difference was that now in the azure sky, there appeared nurous pitch-black spears.

"Fuck!" Seeing the spears aid towards him, Lu Xiao couldn’t help but curse aloud.

He then imdiately struggled to free himself and get up.

Not far behind, there was an endless beach, and on it stood a throng of people, whooping and hollering incomprehensibly, but sounding quite excited.

As for those spears, clearly they were thrown by that group.

"Damn it, it can’t be a Primitive Tribe I’ve drifted to!" Lu Xiao spat out a curse, then swiftly dodged the incoming spears.

He managed to avoid them, but the poor lifeboat that had accompanied him for who knows how many days was punctured, letting out a series of deflating sounds.

"Are you insane!" Lu Xiao roared at the group of people.

I was still counting on this lifeboat to continue drifting—how am I supposed to carry on my great mariti adventure with it punctured by you lot!

Damn!

Upon hearing Lu Xiao’s angry curse, the group fell silent for two seconds, then started jumping up and down on the spot, whooping even louder than before.

Following that, a more frenzied barrage of spear rain shot toward Lu Xiao and the lifeboat.

"Fuck off!" Lu Xiao’s face darkened as his Inner Qi suddenly erupted, and the spears being shot down were instantly repelled.

He had just woken up, his mind still in a daze, and hadn’t reacted in ti when he first saw the throwing spears, otherwise the lifeboat might not have had to make such a noble sacrifice.

Seeing all the spears shaken off, the people were once more taken aback, then began whispering among themselves.

anwhile, a few of them sprinted towards the forest deep beyond the beach.

Of course, the others stayed put, ready to continue hurling spears.

Lu Xiao looked at his soon-to-be-gone lifeboat with so pain, then jumped up, his Inner Qi bursting forth.

After lightly touching the water with his feet, he began to tread upon it.

On the beach, those who had been ready to throw more spears saw Lu Xiao "flying" over and started yelling wildly again.

Then, all of them dropped their spears, retreated a few steps, and dropped to their knees with a series of thuds.

Lu Xiao was stupefied—what the hell was going on?

One minute they’re trying to kill , the next they’re worshipping —could it be so kind of weird cult’s base?
