"Yes, I was planning to look around for any suitable ruins and hunt for some materials I need," Lin Hui replied, making up a casual excuse.
"I see. We are Blood Guardians from the Tu Yue Moon Tower. An Original Blood Noble was just murdered in this area, so we rushed over to investigate," the old man said quickly.
"Original Blood Nobility?" Lin Hui nodded. "I did just see a merchant ship pass by, but I haven't seen anything else."
"We found the merchant ship and spoke to a survivor who saw the body. According to them, they couldn't get a clear look at the killer. The fog was too thick, and the perpetrator was shrouded in a swirling, transparent, distorted power that completely obscured their form." The old man paused, then continued, "Sir, I wonder if you've seen anyone... someone enveloped in layers of that distorted, transparent power..."
As he spoke, he glanced at the formless, twisting stream of air circling Lin Hui.
