Bai Fuah has no way to prove Arthur's words wrong. Although the Vermillion Family is declining, their history and background run deep, so it was not impossible for them to collect a few amazing cultivation techniques that enhance their perception and senses to a certain degree which makes even a brat like Arthur discover someone an entire large boundary above him.
Of course. he had some doubts, he did not completely believe that Arthur would be bored enough to learn such a useless cultivation technique when he is not even strong enough to make an enemy deliberately conceal himself in his presence.
In his opinion, a talented individual like Arthur who has gained enlightenment should cultivate powerful cultivation techniques. And of those that exist in the White Alyssum City, there are currently several of those powerful ones. One of those at the peak, and within Arthur's reach, is his family's ancestral manual, the 'Sacred Vermillion Manual'.
Although his cultivation level is not even close to actually start comprehending the rudimentary stages of the 'Sacred Vermillion Manual'. Once he reaches the Meridian Opening Stage, making him able to absorb the Genesis Energy of the world, it would allow him to have a speed in comprehending the 'Sacred Vermillion Manual' much faster than the others, since he now has a grasp and insights from before.
It might sound like Bai Fuah is overly praising Arthur, but the truth is, he is not. In the thousands of years in the history of the White Alyssum City, never did they have a disciple that attained enlightenment. So, him being nice to Arthur, it can be considered to be within the categories of 'as expected'. Arthur was not attaining enlightenment and was experiencing something else did not even cross Bai Fuah's mind. First of all, Arthur does not even have a spoonful of Genesis Energy running in his body, it is impossible for him to evoke such a phenomenon without using Genesis Energy.

The only thing capable of producing such a phenomenon, without using Genesis Energy would be the heavens itself.
Furthermore, he is a hundred, if not, a thousand times stronger than Arthur, it is impossible for him not to know what a hairless brat such as Arthur is doing. Strength sees through everything.
"Alright, little brother. You calling me here now must somehow be related to that roar earlier, right?"
Bai Fuah asked, after some slight pondering. There are no other reasons for Arthur calling him out just now even after confirming his existence for some time.
"Senior Brother Bai Fuah is very smart. Indeed, I want Senior Brother Bai Fuah to investigate this matter together with me. Just that roar alone made my whole body numb, I would probably die if I faced the aura of such a beast."
Bai Fuah nodded in understanding. However, in his heart, he was already tempted to strike this little brother known as Arthur to the ground.
'This brat just wanted me to be his playmate.'
The mayor did not deliberately assign Bai Fuah to assist Arthur in his little adventure, he volunteered to accept this job mostly for himself. A long time has passed since he became the personal disciple of the mayor, and this would be his first time ever going out of the city gates of White Alyssum City.
At just a mere 26 years of age, Bai Fuah has already broken through the middle Yellow Blood Realm. Such a feat would surely cause countless waves among the mortals and martial artists that live in White Alyssum City. Many of those people would surmise that he relied on his luck to travel a part of the world, accumulating his destiny, to achieve what his achievements currently were.
Yet, it was actually just this time that he went out.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother Bai Fuah. If there ever appears any danger that exceeds that of what you can grasp, I will immediately leave."

Areas with rich and abundant Genesis Energy attract numerous beasts to inhabit it. These typically exist in young forests with plentiful spiritual flowers to absorb the energy of the world. The area around these spiritual flowers would then be baptized by it, making that area a haven for martial artists and beasts.
However, that's just one of the many births of spiritual areas. For example, if one were to trace back the origins of every single spiritual area, then they would find out that they are extremely diverse from the other.
Spiritual areas are also divided into categories which evaluate their overall quality.
Those areas with a low accumulation of Genesis Energy are many in number. Many young martial artists of small and even large influences are thrown there by their elders to gather experience and grab their own lucky chances.
The forest that Bai Fuah and Arthur is currently in is one of those many low class spiritual areas. With Bai Fuah here, Arthur would surely have a great amount of danger placed on him lessen. In this world, however, it would only lessen but not disappear.
Once a mortal becomes a martial artist, danger would always be by their side. It is not something that is shaken off.
That's why, although Bai Fuah is strong. The beasts living in this forest might have someone stronger than him, so they could not be completely sure.
Bai Fuah understood and agreed to Arthur's request with a great amount of hesitance. The task he accepted was to protect Arthur from any danger, except for absolute danger that even he would not have a chance against, he would let Arthur run free without restraints.
"You must remember your words."
Arthur was overjoyed upon seeing this mysterious Bai Fuah's agreement to his request. Viewing it on a larger picture, he is actually risking his own life just to protect him. Although it is his mission, it would still be a bit excessive to bet your own life on the line for such a junior like him.
He was well aware of his past self. Everyone that caught sight of him even for the first time would immediately think of him as a wastrel, none was an exception.
However, now, in his eyes, this senior brother in front of him treated him equally. He slowly closed his eyes and quietly marked this person's name in his heart. In the future, he will surely make friends with him, such a rare character is worth him doing so.
The two carefully walked further and deeper into the forest.
After walking for an hour, not a single beast was sighted.
"Senior Brother Bai Fuah, have you any idea why there are no beasts in this area?"
Arthur tried to ask him this question several times earlier, but it was only now that he did so. Because he knew that his answer would leave him feeling disappointed.
And indeed, he was. Upon hearing Arthur's question, Bai Fuah actually shook his head. It was obvious that even he does not know what kind of phenomenon is happening deep within this forest.
"This part of the forest is too strange. Earlier it was extremely faint so I did not dare to believe it, but upon coming this deeper into the forest... I can feel that there is a strange existence sucking in the spiritual energy of this forest."
Arthur sucked in a cold breath. He was only but a mere Vigor Stage so it was impossible for him to feel the various energies of the world.
But at least, he knows that it should be an unordinary existence to suck in the entirety of spiritual energy of this forest.
