Chapter 1593: Chapter 589: The Langya Fleet, Fulfilling the Promise

"Are you Murong Yuan?"

Beneath the verdant green hills dotted with blue flowers and wafting fragrances of Langya Mountain, a man curiously sized up Luo Chen.

Luo Chen himself looked at this man who was exceedingly young, first nodded his head, and then couldn’t help but ask, "Are you a clan elder of Boss Wang’s family?"

Normally, he would not be so forthright in asking people.

It’s just that this man, despite being at the Foundation Establishment Stage, was excessively young. Through the detection of his Divine Consciousness, he appeared to be at most in his thirties, and because of well-maintained skin, he looked like a 17 or 18-year-old youth.

Usually, the hierarchy based on cultivation realms only applies amongst Immortal Cultivators without blood relations.

Does the Wang Family also follow this internally?

The young man chuckled, "I am indeed his elder, although I am a whole grand cycle of sixty years younger than him. According to the family genealogy, I am two generations older than him; he has to call me ’Great-Uncle’."

Alright then!

Luo Chen’s inner confusion received its answer.

Or rather, the issue of seniority within the Immortal Cultivation World has always been an entangled mess that is hard to make sense of.

For example, if two brothers cultivate together, and one cultivates through Purification to the Golden Core Period not indulging in feminine charms, while the other has insufficient talent and gets married and has children in his 20s and 30s, thereafter continuing the bloodline.

After three or four hundred years, the latter’s descendants would have proliferated through many generations.

At that point, if the Golden Core Cultivator brother suddenly marries and has children, producing a 1 or 2-year-old child, then all of the latter’s dozens of generations of descendants would have become juniors to this little child!

As for the address...

If this child grows up and expands his bloodline, the people of the other line would have to reckon the addresses once again.

In short, unless it is within the family where they have the family genealogy to rely on and teachings of the elders, they could at least sort it out a bit. Otherwise, for cultivators outside the family, using just age and cultivation realm to differentiate seniority is quite challenging.

"Daoist Murong hid his cultivation level before, didn’t he?"

"Friend Wang has good perception; indeed, I had concealed my realm. Externally, I showed the Qi Refinement Stage, but in reality, I am at the Foundation Establishment Stage. Regarding the reason..."

"There’s no need for explanations. When traveling outside, we do whatever is convenient." Having received Luo Chen’s acknowledgment, the young man displayed a smug smile, proud of his keen awareness. However, to maintain his composure, he proceeded graciously, "Since our realms are comparable, we should address each other as peers. My surname is Wang, and my given name is just one character: An."

Luo Chen performed a fist and palm salute, "A Rogue Cultivator from Han Jia, Murong Yuan, greets Daoist Wang An."

Wang An returned the salute.

As for Luo Chen’s mention of Han Jia, it was just a place he made up on the spot, located between the Flying Swallow Islands and White Sand Island.

That sort of minor place, Wang An didn’t know at all.

Nor did the other party care.

What he cared about was the place where Luo Chen wanted to go.

"Do you intend to head to Giant Whale Port?"

Luo Chen nodded, "Yes, with the current situation being so chaotic and this region being at the front lines of the great battle between righteous and demonic forces, my strength is too insignificant. I do not wish to get involved in this murky conflict. Giant Whale Port, I’ve heard, serves as the headquarters of the Commercial Alliance of Tianyuan Daoist Sect in the North Sea. With the prestige of Tianyuan, presumably, neither side in the conflict would dare to violate the territory, which should ensure my temporary safety."

"You have a sharp insight indeed, however the cost of living in Giant Whale Port is extremely high; it’s not a place where ordinary Rogue Cultivators can settle down easily."

Wang An muttered to himself, but seeing Luo Chen still determined, he then brought up the main issue.

"The travel fee you provided before was quite generous, but after all, it was the price for a Qi Refinement Cultivator. Since you are actually a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, the price for taking you along needs to be negotiated anew."

Luo Chen showed a troubled expression.

Wang An seemed to understand his predicament. After all, the letter that came from Red Tide Port had informed him of this Rogue Cultivator’s situation.

Already injured, with his maid from childhood being frail and sickly, his savings over the years had been completely drained.

The previous sum of Spirit Stones was all that he had left.

"Don’t worry, I’m not someone who’s unreasonable," Wang An declared grandly. "You just need to follow our instructions on the upcoming journey. If we encounter Demon Beasts or something of the sort, it’s not a big deal, but if we are attacked by Calamity Cultivators, then you’ll have to help defend, as after all, we are all people on the same ship."

Literally on the same ship!

Luo Chen nodded, his expression one of relief.

From this point onwards, Wang An’s inspection of his identity, as well as some details about the departure, came to an end.

Afterward, Luo Chen spent two days at a small town at the foot of Langya Mountain.

The third day.

At sunrise, Luo Chen stood on the port that faced the sea at Langya Mountain and watched a colossal ship sail out from the dockyard.

After the big ship emerged, seven or eight smaller ships gradually gathered from all directions.

Though termed small, their size was anything but, fully comparable to the largest Monster Hunting Ships of the Flying Swallow Islands.

Witnessing this scene, Luo Chen couldn’t help but feel impressed.

It truly represented the might of a great force with a Nascent Soul True Master at its helm!

Ordinary family sects’ trading fleets comprised just one or two ships at most; where could they muster a fleet quite so casually like this?

At this moment, Wang An waved to him from the largest ship.

Luo Chen flew up with Tian Xuan.

"Your room is on the second floor. Inside, there’s a simple Gathering Spirit Array, roughly on the level of First Order High Quality Spiritual Veins. If combined with Spirit Stones for cultivation, it won’t affect your daily practice."

Luo Chen showed a look of surprise.

On a trading ship, they could actually create such a dense concentration of spirit qi?

Especially since he was only a negligible passenger. If it had been internal Foundation Establishment Cultivators, or even Golden Core Cultivators, wouldn’t that mean access to even better cultivation environments?
