Airship

While the servants were cleaning up the table, Xuan Cheung

said, "The Dragon Head Airship will be leaving this afternoon,

so we should start heading there now."

"Dragon Head Airship?" Tian Yi asked with a puzzled face.

"Yes, the Dragon Head Airship. It is a giant airship that travels

from Continent to Continent. It should take about a week or so

to get to Xiangliu Continent." Xuan Cheung replied.

Because the Mortal's Realm does not have any portals, they

have to use airships fueled with Spirit Stones to travel.

Although it can hop between Continents within weeks, it uses

up a lot of Spirit Stone, making it very expensive to ride on

one. However, with the Xuan Family's status, do they even

need to worry about money?

"But we can just ride on Yan Yan." Tian Yi points to a

particular direction.

"?" Xuan Cheung looks to what he was pointing at, and he

sees a blue looking bird in the corner with its forehead

touching the wall.

"….." For some reason, looking at this bird makes him feel

depressed.

He has never seen this kind of bird before, "What kind of bird

is that? And how are we supposed to ride on that?" He asked.

"That's—-"

"Stop!" Xuan Wanshan stopped Tian Yi from talking anymore.

"Master?"

"We will be going to Xiangliu Continent normally this time

around!" She answered.

Looking puzzled, Tian Yi asked, "But riding on Yan Yan is

normal."

*Pap*

Face palming herself, Xuan Wanshan said, "Tian Yi, did we

not talk about this just a day ago? Riding on a tiger and riding

on a horse are two different things! Why waste her energy

when we can take the airship?"

Looking at Yan Yan who was behaving weird, Tian Yi nods,

"Un. Yan Yan seems pretty tired anyways."

Yan Yan has been acting like this since last night, and when he

tried to ask, all she said was, "Master, don't worry and leave

me alone for a few days, I am just having a bad day…"

If she was having a bad day and wanted to be left alone, then

he will not bother her. Everybody has these type of days once

in awhile.

"Riding on a tiger? Riding on a horse?" Xuan Cheung had no

idea that they are mentioning about a Phoenix and not a tiger.

How are they even going to ride on something as small as that

depressing bird anyways?

"Anyways, do you two have anything else you need to prepare

for before we leave?" Xuan Yuming asked.

"I am ready."

"Me too." Both Xuan Wanshan and Tian Yi said.

"Okay then, let's go. We will take the carriage and will arrive

in about an hour or so." Xuan Cheung said.

They all went outside to where an expensive looking carriage

was stationed.

*****

A little over an hour later, the carriage stops, and everybody

inside came out.

Surveying the surroundings with his Divine Sense, Tian Yi

nods to himself, "So this is an airship huh. It is amazing how

Mortals can come up with things like this."

There was a massive 1,000 meters long wooden boat floating

in the sky. This airship was made from some precious wood,

making this massive ship lightweight yet durable. The front of

this airship was shaped like a Dragon's Head, giving this

airship its current name. The rest of the bottom was shaped

just like any other standard boat. On the deck of this airship,

there are many wooden poles with white sails attached to it.

The interior of this airship has many rooms, with some rooms

having space as large as a whole house.

Airships are powered by Spirit Stones, and they are usually

auto-piloted.

"Let's go over there." Xuan Cheung points to a building that

was currently selling tickets. Because only rich people would

travel between Continents, the line was not the long.

Followed by everybody, Xuan Cheung walked to the building

and straight to the front of the line, "I am Xuan Cheung from

the Xuan Family. I have already made reservations for my

family." He said to the worker there that dealt with the tickets.

"So it is the Xuan Family, I have heard of your achievements.

Senior, congratulations on becoming a Pill Grandmaster." The

worker bowed with respect.

"Hahaha, thank you, news sure spread fast." Xuan Cheung

laughed.

"As for your tickets, they have been prepared already, please

follow me." The worker said.

"Good, let's—. Wait, where did little Tian go?" Xuan Cheung

said, noticing that he was not there.

"Eh?" Everybody looked around.

"You're right; Meng Xiang is gone too. Where did they go?"

"He's over there…" Xuan Wanshan points to the back of the

line.

"Why is he lining up? Did you not tell him that we have

reservations?" Xuan Cheung asked.

"I forgot… I will go get him." Xuan Wanshan said and went

away.

Walking over to where Tian Yi was, Xuan Wanshan called out

to him, "Tian Yi, what are you doing waiting in line? We have

reservations, so we do not need to wait here to buy tickets."

"Oh, we already have tickets? Okay." Tian Yi followed Xuan

Wanshan back to where Xuan Cheung was waiting.

"Then please follow me." The worker said and started walking

away.

Walking over to where there was a lot of people waiting, the

worker said, "We have several thousands of people traveling

this time, so it may take awhile to get in. That is if you can't

fly. If you are a Spirit Realm Expert, you can go up by

yourself."

Not everybody here was a Spirit Realm Expert, so they needed

to either uses their own treasure to fly or wait for the Spirit

Realm Experts working there to pick them up. Because there

are only a limited number of Spirit Realm Experts working

there, only a few can go up now and then.

"Okay, Shanshan, you can pick up little Meng, and I will carry

TianTian." Xuan Yuming said with a playful smile.

"Eh? Senior, it is fine, I can get up there by myself…" Tian Yi

said with a weird expression.

"Stop being shy, although I cannot see your Cultivation, you

are only 18 Years Old."

Xuan Yuming knew that the youngest Spirit Realm Expert in

the Mortal's Realm right now is already 19 Years Old, not

including the Holy Continent! Even if it was the Holy

Continent, it is not easy to become a Spirit Realm Expert by

age 18!

Xuan Wanshan found this funny any said, "Tian Yi, my

Mother right. You are only 18 Years Old, so how can you

possibly fly—"

*Whoosh*

Before she could even finish, Tian Yi carried Meng Xiang and

disappeared from their sight.

"Eh?!?!?" Xuan Yuming and Xuan Cheung looked around

dumbfoundedly but were unable to find him.

"Hahahaha, Mother, Father, I forgot to tell you something."

Xuan Wanshan laughed at their reaction.

"???" They both look at her with a puzzled face.

Pointing to the sky, Xuan Wanshan said, "My Disciple is a

genius that cannot be found by looking, but only by chance."

"Eh?" They both looked up to see Tian Yi hovering right next

to the airship, waiting for them.

Shocked out of their minds, they both heard Xuan Wanshan

say, "He is a Spirit Realm Expert at 18 Years Old, and he is

also stronger than me…"

*Boom*

Something exploded in the Xuan couple's mind, and they

stood there with a stupefied look.

Although they knew that Tian Yi had something unique about

him, never would they have imagined that he was actually a

Spirit Realm Expert! And did Xuan Wanshan also say that he

was stronger than her, a Spirit King?!? Impossible!

Still dazed out, Xuan Cheung tried to talk, "W-W-Whe-Where

—"

Xuan Wanshan knew what he was going to ask, "Where did I

find him? It was not me who found him, but it was he who

found me." She said.

It was Tian Yi who asked her to be his Master and not the

other way around.

"Shanshan, aren't you a lucky one! If you don't snatch him up

now, girls will fight you to have him!" Xuan Yuming laughed.

Blushing, Xuan Wanshan said, "Fight me? Who will dare?"

Who was willing to fight a 27 Years Old Spirit King for a

young man? It is not like they were males fighting for a

peerless beauty.

"Shanshan, don't underestimate the crazy females out there

who are willing to kill for their future genius offsprings! If

males do it, so will females! So what if you are a Spirit King?

There will be stronger people out there once you transcend!"

Xuan Yuming said while shaking her head.

"Hmph, they can have him! Whether he accepts them or not is

none of my business!" Xuan Wanshan said before flying up to

the airship.

"Isn't she an honest one?" Xuan Cheung said sarcastically.

"That is what makes her so cute." Xuan Yuming laughs.

"But to become a Spirit Realm Expert by 18 Years Old, what

kind of background does he have?" Xuan Cheung refused to

believe that Tian Yi was some ordinary young man.

"Who knows. However, what I do know is that boy is my

daughter's Disciple, and that is all I need to know." Xuan

Yuming said and also started flying up.

"Haaa, this family will become lively in the future…" Xuan

Cheung sighs and also flies up.

*****

There are halls around the airship filled with doors, leading the

travelers to their room.

Xuan Cheung pointed to a door, "Little Tian, that is your

room. It is a V.I.P room, so there will be more than enough

room for you and little Meng." He said.

Tian Yi nods, "Un. Thank you. I will be teaching Meng Xiang

how to brew tea for the most part in this travel, so come knock

if Seniors need anything."

This journey will take a week, so there are plenty of time to

teach Meng Xiang how to control her new powers.

"Then I—"

"As for you Shanshan, there is a lot to talk about, so come

with me." Xuan Yuming dragged Xuan Wanshan away to her

room.

"…." Xuan Cheung silently sighs in his heart.

"Then I will no longer bother Senior" Tian Yi also went into

his room with Meng Xiang and Yan Yan.

*****

Inside the room, Meng Xiang looked around with a curious

expression. Although the room was not as luxurious as the

Feng Clan's guest room, it is still magnificent.

"Meng Xiang, I will be teaching you how to control your

Divine Flames this whole week." Tian Yi said.

"Divine Flames?" Meng Xiang does not remember having any

Divine Flames inside her body.

"... Did I not feed you some just last night?" Tian Yi was

speechless! What did she think he was doing yesterday, just

kissing her for fun?!

"Ah, that!"

Meng Xiang finally recalls last night's experience. All she

could remember was savoring his sweet saliva for a good

minute and then blacking out the next!

With her face bright red, Meng Xiang wiggled her body

around, "Big Brother, you turned me into such a shameless

little girl…" She said with a shy voice.

"What?!" Tian Yi's jaw dropped after hearing that. Since when

did he do something like that?! It was her who did that weird

act! He was the victim here!

*Cough*

*Plop*

The already gloomy Yan Yan drops on the floor again.

"Forget about that, you need to focus on training your control

over Divine Flames, come and sit in front of me." Tian Yi sits

down in the lotus position.

Walking in front of him, Meng Xiang sits down normally.

"…. In the lotus position." Tian Yi reminded her.

"But it feels uncomfortable…" Meng Xiang said.

She has never Cultivated, so sitting in the lotus position for her

feels very weird.

"I know, but you will get used to it. I don't like it either, but

my father would yell at me every time I sit in a different—

Wait, I am alone right now!" Tian Yi suddenly felt enlightened

halfway through his speech.

He did not know why most people sit in the lotus position

because it felt weird to him, so he would usually sit in a way

that he feels the most comfortable.

After being told so many times by his father, he started sitting

in the lotus position because of muscle memory. However,

now that he is alone, he can sit any way he wanted to without

hearing his father's annoying yells!

Realizing that, Tian Yi stretched out his legs and crossed them,

then he laid on his back on the wooden floor, "Okay, this is

how I like to Cultivate, so you can choose whichever position

that feels the most comfortable to you." He said to the

dumbfounded Meng Xiang.

Looking at Tian Yi's Cultivating position, Meng Xiang did not

know what to say other than, "But Big Brother, that is just

sleeping…"

He was literally in a sleeping position but with one of his legs

on top of the other, making him look even more relaxed! What

kind of Cultivating position is this? This Cultivating position

of his is basically sleeping!

"Nonsense! Cultivating is just absorbing Spirit Power into

your body, and there is no written rule on how to do it! If I can

Cultivate like this, then it is my Cultivating position!" Tian Yi

rebuked.

As long as you can Cultivate properly, it does not matter how

you do it! If someone can Cultivate while standing, then that is

their own Cultivating position!

Noticing something familiar, Yan Yan finally wakes up to say,

"Master, you normally do it half naked, so you should take off

your clothes too!"

Being with him for so long, she has obviously seen things that

nobody would ever dare to imagine. In the past, She had even

seen him fully naked when he took a bath in the Pond of

Godhood! That was also how they first met! Because she

accidentally peeked at Tian Yi taking a bath in the Pond of

Godhood, she was almost slaughtered by him! He did not

attack her because she peeked at him, but because she went

crazy after seeing him naked, even running at him with a

mouth full of saliva! It was self-defense!

Remembering that fantastic event, a smile slowly appears on

Yan Yan's face.

"…. What nonsense are you spewing? Although I do that, it is

only when the wind feels good. It is a nice change of pace

when you are always wearing clothes." Tian Yi said with a

calm voice.

"Then Master should just walk around half naked. There are

people out there who walk around with their chest bare." Yan

Yan suggested.

"What is going on in your head right now? Do you think I can

walk around with my chest bare?" Tian Yi shakes his head.

Can the son of the Celestial Emperor do something this

inappropriate?

Sitting back up, Tian Yi looked at the puzzled Meng Xiang,

"Meng Xiang, did you find your Cultivating position yet?" He

asks her.

She nodded, "Un."

She was sitting down with her legs crossed and nothing else,

so a normal sitting position like how people sit on the ground

when listening to stories.

"Okay, now let's begin your training." Tian Yi said.
