Number One Under Heaven -
Chapter 61: 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.
