Ye Guichen did not expect Murong to seem to know everyone and initially wanted to refuse.

After all, maintaining vigilance towards unfamiliar people is a good habit.

But his gaze fell on the Turtle Shell Plate in Lu Bu's hand.

"Brother Lv, is this a Daoist compass?" Ye Guichen looked at the Turtle Shell Plate and asked with a smile.

Lu Bu was stunned and then laughed heartily, "This brother has sharp eyes. Yes, I liked Daoist arts since childhood and have studied many Daoist spells. To tell you the truth, all of our phones have been confiscated, and there is no signal on the vast sea. If we find Atlantis, I will definitely be the first."

To ensure the fairness of this martial arts competition, all communication devices were confiscated.

As Lu Bu said, even if they weren't taken, there would be no direction on the vast sea, and they could easily get lost.

Ye Guichen could see that Lu Bu seemed to be here for Murong and seemed to like Murong.

But Murong seemed to dislike him.

"Alright, then let's trouble Brother Lv." Ye Guichen was too lazy to think. Since someone offered to be the guide, there was no reason not to agree.

"Hey, what's the matter with you? I said not to go with them!" Murong heard and was immediately anxious.

Ye Guichen's face sank: "The martial arts competition has already started. I am the leader. It was fine to question my words before, but from now on, if anyone dares to question my words, don't blame me for turning hostile!"

"You..." Murong didn't expect Ye Guichen to turn hostile so quickly, angrily shook his hand, and walked to Wang Ying.

Jiang Long and others were also slightly taken aback, not expecting Ye Guichen to suddenly change as if he was a different person.

Previously, Ye Guichen was domineering but reconciliatory, and he seemed a bit chatty in front of Murong.

But now, Ye Guichen gave an extremely authoritarian feeling.

For some reason, Jiang Long and others seemed to feel this was the real Ye Guichen.

However, they naturally had no objections.

Lu Bu saw Murong being devoured and gave Ye Guichen a deep look but didn't say much, "Haha, good. Since that's the case, let's go. According to my knowledge, there's a dock nearby. Let's go there to find a boat. If we're late, the boats might be taken by other teams."

The group followed Lu Bu's words and found a dock half an hour later.

However, there were only nine boats at the dock. Besides a slightly larger cargo boat that could accommodate more than twenty people, the rest were small diesel boats, and there was also a hand-rowed boat that could seat ten people at most.

"Quick, let's grab that big boat!" Upon seeing the big boat, Lu Bu directly gave the order.

But it was too late. As soon as his order was given, a figure had already rushed over, standing at the bow like a ghost, looking proudly at Lu Bu's men, "Sorry, this boat belongs to Vermilion Bird Tower."

It was Gongsun Fengying.

Gongsun Fengying's lips curled in disdain as he looked at Lu Bu's indignant men, "What, are you dissatisfied? Haha, no problem. Although we are competitors and the rules say we should not kill each other, if I am attacked, it is self-defense, and accidentally killing someone does not violate the rules."

"Gongsun Fengying, stop being arrogant!" Lu Bu's men knew Gongsun Fengying's power and didn't dare to act.

Ye Guichen heard and felt increasingly that this martial arts competition was strange.

But he couldn't pinpoint exactly where.

"Gongsun Fengying, this boat can seat at least twenty. If you don't mind, we can share it!" Lu Bu stepped forward, suggesting his team not argue.

Gongsun Fengying sneered, "I have no interest in cooperating with others. Take care of yourselves!"

After speaking, he called his Vermilion Bird Tower men to board the boat, not giving others a chance, and directly started the boat.

Soon, other teams arrived.

Lu Bu's face was somewhat unpleasant, but he did not act rashly and quickly occupied a slightly larger motorized boat.

At least this could save a lot of manpower.

"Hey, Ye Guichen, what are you waiting for? If we don't grab a boat, we'll lose before we even set foot on the sea!" Seeing Ye Guichen unmoved, Murong was almost jumping in anxiety.

Ye Guichen seemed not to hear Murong's words, looked around, and observed the surrounding terrain, "Since it's getting late, let them go first. We'll set off tomorrow."

"What!" Murong and others felt their ears were malfunctioning.

With only seven days, resting one night would be a waste of time.

This Ye Guichen must be deliberately holding them back!

"Ye Guichen, what do you mean, are you kidding?" Murong couldn't bear it anymore, pointing at Ye Guichen angrily.

Ye Guichen looked over sharply, his previously mild demeanor changing, "Murong, stop glaring at me. If you dare question my decision again, I'll throw you into the sea right now!"

"You, you..." Murong was furious, but feeling Ye Guichen's fierce gaze, he waved his hand angrily, "Fine! Let's see how you explain it after we get back!"

Jiang Long sighed and approached Ye Guichen, "Captain, do we really stay the night?"

"Yes! Find a place to replenish our strength, and set off tomorrow in our best state." Ye Guichen's tone was unwavering, ignoring others' persuasion, and walked quickly towards the houses by the dock.

"Hey, are you going or not?" Seeing Ye Guichen and his group not grabbing boats, Lu Bu shouted.

"Brother Lv, sorry, we agreed to go together, but I suddenly changed my mind." Ye Guichen cupped his fists to Lu Bu without further explanation.

Lu Bu frowned, a cold smile tugging at his lips, he didn't say much and directly ordered his men to sail.

Watching Lu Bu and his group's departure, Zuo Zongsheng's eyes flickered. He wanted to establish relations with Lu Bu but couldn't find the opportunity with so many people.

"I want to see what you're up to!" Zuo Zongsheng glanced at Ye Guichen's direction before looking at the dock.

Although it resembled a dock with a few houses, there was a mountain behind it covered in dense forest.

No one knew exactly what it was, but it was clearly remote and seldom visited.

Zuo Zongsheng lagged behind the group, glanced at the nearby small mountain, and made an OK gesture.

On the small mountain, a figure quickly disappeared.
