Alex and the rest arrived at Scarlet's room, with her mother close by.
Bai Jingshen looked around, both confused and worried. He sensed the formation working in the room that did the same as what his earrings were doing and slowly deactivated his earrings.
The formations would help them hide for now.
"What did you do exactly?" he asked Alex.
"I hid a tree in the forest," Alex said simply.
It wasn't just Bai Jingshen who gave him a confused look. "Did people really not notice that you came here?" Scarlet's mother asked.
"Yes. They can't track my teleportation," Alex said. He turned toward Bai Jingshen. "Imagine space as a calm pond. A single ripple is noticeable, can be tracked. What I did was akin to splashing the water in all directions around me before moving within those splashes. Whatever ripple the teleportation would've left behind has now mixed in with those other splashes."
Bai Jingshen's eyes widened slightly. "I see. You did hide the tree in the forest."
