There was nothing for Lin Fan to respond to this with because he was thinking the exact same thing.

They had made it all the way to the location on the map, but there was nothing here waiting for them.

Could it be that they had made a mistake?

Or was there something else that they just weren\'t seeing?

Lin Fan pulled out the books again and matched them together before looking up at the sky. As he looked up, he saw that the pattern above them perfectly matched the pattern that was on the books as they converged in the center of the map.

Since that was the case, why wasn\'t there anything here?

Perhaps they had to do something with the books before it triggered this event?

Was it the reason why there were five books?

As Lin Fan was thinking about this, he pulled out the fifth book and started fiddling with it.

When Mo Ze Chen saw this, he also had the same thought and came over to help Lin Fan look over the book.

However, even with both of them looking it over, they couldn\'t find anything special about this fifth book at all. It was the exact same as the other four books that were laying there on the deck.

At the same time, they had also tried to see if they could integrate the fifth book into the map made of four books since it might have been a mistake on their part. This might not be the real map at all, it was just what they thought was the map. After all, there was an extra book here.

But as they were looking this over, they suddenly heard the call of a whale coming from behind them.

They didn\'t react at first since they assumed that this was normal since they were on the seas, but then they came back to their senses and realized why this was abnormal.

During their entire trip, they hadn\'t found a single living creature that had been in the ocean, but now there was actually something there. Not to mention that it was a whale, just like the one that they were looking for.

However, when they turned to look in the direction that the whale call had come from, they saw something that had caught them off guard.

It wasn\'t because there was a whale there at all, rather there wasn\'t a whale at all. Instead of there being a whale, there was a little girl who was strangely floating on the water.

Floating wasn\'t the right word for it, rather it was better to say that she was defying all laws of nature by standing on the water.

As the two of them were caught off guard, the little girl on the water walked across it towards their boat before jumping onto the deck.

Once she was on the deck, Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen snapped out of their daze and put up their guards. This was something that they had encountered many times now, so they knew that there would most likely be a hard battle ahead of them.

In an instant, Lin Fan had pulled out his pure white sword while Mo Ze Chen had moved behind Lin Fan, hiding behind him.

Lin Fan would have said something about this, but this wasn\'t the time to deal with Mo Ze Chen right now as he was completely focused on the little girl.

When the little girl saw this, she didn\'t get mad or become surprised, rather she just gave a giggle and said, "Big brothers, there\'s no need to be worried. I\'m just here to talk."

Lin Fan looked at her before giving a cold snort and saying, "If you were here to talk, would you have snuck up on us?"

The little girl gave a shrug and said, "Is it our fault that you were so focused on your books that you didn\'t notice us?"

Lin Fan was about to say something else, but then he noticed something about what the little girl had just said.

She was clearly here alone, so why was she saying "us"?

Lin Fan knitted his brows and asked, "What do you mean when you say "us"?"

The little girl tilted her head like she was confused before asking, "What else could I mean by that?"

Then after thinking about it, it looked like she realized that she had made a mistake as she tapped her right hand into her left palm before saying, "Oh, that\'s right!"

Before Lin Fan or Mo Ze Chen could even react, she said, "You haven\'t met Xiao Jing yet."

Then once again, before either of them could say a thing, she turned to the side of the boat and waved her hand out at the sea as she said, "Xiao Jing, come up and introduce yourself."

Once her voice rang out over the seas, there was another whale call before a sudden burst of water came out of the surface of the seas. It was first a column of water before a giant splash that pushed water all around this one giant figure.

When the water fell back down, it revealed a giant gray figure that was floating in the water. This giant gray figure was even bigger than the ship that they were currently on.

This giant gray figure was without a doubt a whale.

Even the eye of the whale alone was almost as big as the ship itself.

When this giant beast appeared, Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen became even more wary.

They knew that with just a single flap of its tail, this giant whale would be able to completely sink their ship and they would have no way of fighting back.

Perhaps if they were on land, Lin Fan would be able to fight off this whale with his speed since he was a hard target for the whale to hit, but in the water, that was a different case. The whale was able to move much more freely in the water and Lin Fan wouldn\'t be able to chase it as he would want since he would be restricted in the water unlike the whale.

When the little girl saw the expressions on their faces, she gave another giggle before saying, "Big brothers, you don\'t need to worry about Xiao Jing, he\'s very friendly."

Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen both rolled their eyes at this.

This was a giant beast that was even bigger than their ship and could destroy it with a single flap of any of its limbs, the last thing that this giant beast seemed like was friendly.

Still, they couldn\'t just provoke it since this giant beast was capable of destroying their boat at any time. In cases like this, the best choice was to settle this matter peacefully if it was possible.

Lin Fan paused for a minute before asking, "What do you want with us then?"

The little girl revealed a faint smile and said, "Aren\'t you the ones looking for us?"

As she said this, she was pointing at the five books that had been left on the deck.

Lin Fan immediately raised his weapon when he heard this. After all, based on the clue that he had, he knew that he had to take care of this whale somehow since what he needed to take from this whale was its heart. He was certain that this giant beast wouldn\'t just roll over and let him take its heart.

Seeing that Lin Fan was prepared to fight, the little girl shook her head before signalling to Lin Fan with her hands to put down the weapons.

Seeing that he still didn\'t put them down, she gave a sigh and said, "I\'m not here to fight, I\'m serious."

Lin Fan looked at her with a gaze of suspicion, but he decided to give her the benefit of the doubt. After all, if she did come with hostile intentions, there was no need to wait for this long to attack them since they hadn\'t even been able to sense her when she appeared, which was a strange thing.

Even if they hadn\'t been able to sense her, Brainy would have been able to do so since Brainy had puppets deployed all around them looking for anything that had happened. After all, before she arrived, they weren\'t even sure that they were in the right place.

Not to mention that since they couldn\'t sense her at all, if she had the whale make a move while they were unaware, she could have destroyed their boat already. It would have taken just a single fin flap from under the water to crush their boat.

After a few seconds of leering at her, Lin Fan slowly lowered his hand holding his weapon.

Mo Ze Chen tugged on Lin Fan\'s arm when he saw this, wanting to urge Lin Fan not to be fooled by this, but he didn\'t have time to say a thing before the little girl made her move.

When the little girl saw Lin Fan lowering his weapon, she revealed a bright smile before turning to shout, "Xiao Jing!"

The whale gave another call and with a single burst from its blowhole, the air was filled with mist.

It didn\'t stop there since the whale suddenly slapped its tailfin and created a plume of water that soared into the sky, slowly raining back down around them.

However, as the water fell down, it didn\'t land on the boat at all since the mist that had been released had completely enveloped it. The mist around the boat caught the water until it created a water barrier around the boat.
