He wanted to see if he could find something useful. Anyway, there was no harm in giving it a try.

Xu Bai raised his right hand, and a golden compass appeared. He pressed his finger on it, and the True Core Strength in his body surged out, stirring up a gust of wind in the surroundings.

The golden compass slowly rotated, emitting a dazzling light in the air. Then, the needle on it suddenly reversed crazilyu

“There’s a chance!”

He was very clear that this situation should have caused a change and could be calculated.

As expected, the golden needle spun quickly for a while before gradually stopping. Then, the needle pointed to a direction and trembled slightly.

Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and looked in that direction. It was the backyard of the mansion.

“Let’s go take a look. Maybe there’s something we want inside.” Since the Feng Shui Arithmetic Sutra pointed in this direction, it must be effective.

No Flower nodded and rushed toward the location Xu Bai had mentioned.

Xu Bai didn’t stop either. He followed behind them and quickly walked past the lavish front yard to the backyard.

The backyard was also very large. After all, this was a large family. Just the size alone was already shocking. Unfortunately, because there were no people here, although it was very large, it was empty and filled with a deathly stillness.

When Xu Bai walked into the backyard with the golden compass, the needle on the compass changed again and pointed in another direction. Xu Bai did not stop and continued walking in this direction. Soon, he arrived under an old tree.

The tree looked very sturdy, but the leaves on the branches had already fallen off. Although it was still alive, it gave off a feeling of old age.

For some reason, Xu Bai felt that a pair of eyes were staring at him the moment he saw the tree, and the source of the eyes was the tree.

It was a very strange feeling. There was only a tree in front of him, but it felt like a living person.

“Did you notice anything wrong? For example, this tree always gave people the feeling that it was alive.”Xu Bai asked.

The needle was pointing at this tree. This tree was definitely related, but the most important thing now was the feeling just now. It was very strange.

When No Flower heard Xu Bai, he shook his head and said,””l don’t feel anything else. I look like a very ordinary tree.”

As if to confirm his feelings, No Flower walked around the tree several times and looked up and down carefully, but he didn’t find anything.

Xu Bai looked at Ye Zi again, meaning,” Can you tell?”

Ye Zi imitated Xu Bai and stood beside Xu Bai, looking up and down. However, after looking for a long time, she still found nothing. She gently shook her head and said softly, “Young Master, there is nothing unusual. This is just an ordinary tree. Young Master, did you find anything?”

She also couldn’t tell what was going on. In front of her, this tree was very ordinary and normal. It didn’t give off the feeling that someone was watching it, as Xu Bai had said.

Xu Bai rubbed his chin and thought to himself,””What a strange thing.”

He clearly had this feeling, and even now, this feeling had not disappeared, and

It even made his back teel cold. He kept teenng that someone was silently watching, and the gaze was not hidden, staring straight at him.

But why was he the only one who could feel it?

It didn’t matter.

All of this did not matter. Since there was someone watching, and it came from this tree, then he would start from this tree. It was a very simple matter, and there was no need to beat around the bush.

Xu Bai pulled out the black saber Hundred Rend from his waist and waved it gently. Countless fragments exploded and surrounded the tree.

In just an instant, the towering ancient tree turned into fragments that filled the sky and disappeared without without a trace. At the same time, something appeared in the ancient tree.

A corpse.

There was a corpse hidden in this withered ancient tree. The corpse was covered in wounds and dressed in silk. It looked like it was from a wealthy family.

He was a man in his fifties, and there was a superior aura between his brows. Even in death, that aura could still reach people’s hearts.

“This is…The head of the Gaos?” No Flower quickly reacted. He took out a piece of paper from his pocket. On the paper was a portrait. The person in the portrait was exactly the same as the male corpse.

In their line of work, they would definitely collect information in advance, so it was normal for him to have such information.

After the male corpse appeared, he did not fall to the ground. Instead, he stood on the spot as if he was alive. Other than the fact that he was not breathing, he looked no different from a living person. Of course, the wounds on his body were shocking.

No Flower held the portrait in his hand and walked around the male corpse. In the end, he found a fatal wound on the male corpse’s neck.

“His whole body is covered in small wounds, and the wound on his neck is fatal.

It seems that before he died, he had an intense struggle with someone. Otherwise, he would have been killed in an instant.”

“But why was his body hidden in the tree? Is there something strange in this tree?”

“There are other corpses. Why aren’t there any here?”

No Flower began to talk to himself. Every sentence was the source of the problem, but there were no clues to these problems.

At this moment, Ye Zi suddenly spoke.

“Young Master, perhaps there is a new discovery at the original location under this tree.”

“I once read about this method of hiding people in trees in an ancient book, but the book did not record its purpose..”
