Chapter 2625: Frog in the Well
Shang Hongyu immediately put up her guard. Her earlier failure to detect the intruder could be attributed to her putting down her vigilance because she was with Zu An, but despite the other party revealing himself, she was still unable to sense his aura.
She was the Mermaid Queen, a renowned expert of the Ocean races. It was utterly astounding that she couldn’t sense a person despite the other party appearing before her.
Zu An frowned. “Hm? You aren’t from this world. How did you get in?”
The Cultivation World was a rare Wonderpoint World in the universe. With him activating the world barrier through the World Law Beacon to guard against the monsters’ invasion, it shouldn’t have been possible for beings from other worlds to slip in.
Did something happen to the barrier? Zu An narrowed his eyes.
Hearing Zu An’s words and sensing his unique aura, the masked man nodded in realization. “Ah, you are the master of this world. Pardon me for intruding. I am a unique entity, which allows me to enter any world. You need not worry about your world barrier. There are only a handful of people in the universe who possess this ability.”
Zu An examined the other party. As the master of this world, he could utilize resources unthinkable to mortals while he was in this world. Looking through his own eyes, he saw that the other party had no physical body. Beneath the scholar's robe was empty air.
And yet, the other party was a living entity, existing in a way that was incomprehensible to him.
“What are you doing in our world?” Zu An asked vigilantly.
“I chanced upon this place while investigating the death of a comrade.” The other party’s attitude was exceptionally respectful upon learning that Zu An was the world’s master.
