Chapter 59: Ch 59 - You surely can't bear to part with me~

The shortcut Jinyue mentioned earlier was taking the celestial ship.

This wasn't really a secret; it was more like taking advantage of Chen Jianxin and the other newcomers' lack of experience.

Since ancient times, the Central Plains dynasties have had a tradition of grand infrastructure projects.

Ancient dynasties liked to build canals and great walls. With the recent resurgence of spiritual energy, cultivation has become increasingly common on this continent. The Great Dragon Dynasty has also kept up with the times by pooling resources to build giant celestial ships capable of carrying thousands of travelers.

Now, although celestial ship stations aren't widespread, they've at least connected the major sects and regional capitals to the celestial ship network. However, due to slow information spread, many ordinary civilians who don't practice cultivation are still unaware of this.

The Wuji Sect has naturally joined the celestial ship network as well.

So with the celestial ship routes, the journey from Wuji Peak to Snow Village isn't far at all, just a few hours' wait to board the celestial ship. Discover wonders at m-vl-em-py-r

Moreover, since everyone is a cultivator, they can use their various abilities. Many cultivators fly to their destination midway and simply jump off the ship's deck.

"Brother Chen, look! That person seems to have jumped off directly!"

"So, does that mean the celestial ship won't make stops along the way... How are we supposed to get off later?"

"We're not going to have to jump too, are we?"

Throughout the journey, Chen Jianxin and the other young disciples leaned against the ship's railings, watching with wide-eyed amazement and discussing among themselves.

Some of them came from poor backgrounds and had never seen such a modern marvel as the celestial ship; others had heard fragmented rumors but didn't know that the legendary, seemingly unattainable celestial ships actually had a station built at the top of Wuji Peak, and that sect disciples could ride for free by presenting their Immortal Alliance mission tokens for reimbursement!

"Am I your father? Why do you keep asking me everything?" Chen Jianxin, leaning on the railing and gazing at the snow-capped mountains in the distance, retorted irritably.

"But Brother Chen, you're the only one who knows Senior Sisters Yunjin and Jinyue. We're too shy to talk to them..." The juniors mumbled pitifully.

For a moment, Chen Jianxin fell silent.

He looked back and saw that both senior sisters were sitting on the second-floor balcony of the celestial ship, chatting and laughing as they drank tea and ate snacks with the well-dressed young master.

"Tch, is being rich such a big deal..." Chen Jianxin cursed under his breath.

When they first boarded the celestial ship, Chen Jianxin was quite excited. After all, it was his first time riding such a grand airship, and it was free! It was absolutely amazing.

Chen Jianxin had planned to thank Jinyue for guiding them.

But just in the few minutes it took to board and check tickets, Chen Jianxin discovered that both seniors had gone up to the second floor with Yino.

Chen Jianxin wanted to follow and investigate, but before he could reach the stairs, he was stopped by several cultivators in Immortal Alliance uniforms who questioned his identity. Sёarch* The nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Later, after being interrogated, Chen Jianxin learned that when the Great Dragon Dynasty built the celestial ships, the Grand Tutor's Mansion had invested billions. So after the celestial ships began operating, any VIP carrying the Grand Tutor's token could go directly to the luxurious bedrooms on the second floor of the ship upon boarding.

If ordinary people wanted to rest on the second floor, they would have to pay a considerable fee!

"Brother Chen, what did you just say about being rich? Do we need to pay to get off the ship?" The surrounding disciples were still curiously asking.

Chen Jianxin couldn't help but smack one of them on the back of the head, scolding in annoyance, "Can you stop pestering me with questions? Don't you know to ask the ship staff how to disembark?"

"Oh, oh, that's right!"

...

...

...

-Sorry, being rich really is a big deal-

On the second-floor balcony, Yino watched Chen Jianxin's disdainful expression from afar and couldn't help but smile and shake his head, then continued to sip his tea.

Ever since coming to the Wuji Sect, Yino had been constantly trained by Yuyan, and he had almost forgotten the young master treatment he used to enjoy in Luo City.

After a long time, Yino had almost forgotten that he was still a young master.

Now that he was on the celestial ship, Yino could finally experience the treatment of a Grand Tutor's Mansion young master again.

It felt so good.

No need to squeeze in with that crowd in the main hall, and there were uniformed attendants on the celestial ship serving tea and water, attentively taking care of everything.

"Come to think of it..."

"I've actually had a question all along."

Yino put down his teacup and suddenly spoke up.

On the sofas on either side of him, the red-haired and white-haired girls both sat up almost simultaneously.

They first glanced at each other, then both turned their gazes to Yino.

"When we get there, how are we supposed to get off?"

Thinking of the thousands of meters high in the sky, Yino couldn't help but show a troubled expression.

In his previous life, when playing the game, he had also ridden celestial ships, but those were no different from point-to-point teleportation. Basically, the screen would go black, load for a few seconds, and then the character would appear in the Northern Luo Snow Mountain.

Now that Yino was actually sitting on a celestial ship in reality, he deeply felt the pain of not knowing how to fly on a sword.

"It's alright!"

"I know the contract technique, I can have my blue crane carry Young Master for a ride!"

Yunjin smiled gently, rolling up her sleeve to reveal the blue feather mark on the back of her hand.

"Senior Yunjin is always reliable!"

Yino immediately applauded in appreciation.

But soon, he recalled some unpleasant memories: "This blue crane of yours, it's for riding, not for being carried in its beak, right?"

"Of course it's for riding! What kind of spirit beast would carry its master in its beak while flying?"

Yunjin blinked, raising her hand to cover her mouth in amusement.

But as soon as she said this, the golden spirit mark on the back of Yino's hand inexplicably flashed twice.

Yino hurriedly covered the spirit mark, then said with feigned disdain, "That's true. Carrying the master in its beak would be too much! What kind-hearted, good spirit beast would even look down on its life-saving benefactor?"

"Hmm?"

Yunjin raised an eyebrow slightly, as if she could faintly hear a little deer protesting, cursing fiercely with its "meh meh meh."

At the same time, Jinyue also had a strange expression, looking at Yino with a meaningful gaze, always suspecting that he was also implying something about her.

"However, my blue crane is still young, and at most it can only carry two people..."

As they were chatting, Yunjin suddenly spoke up.

She paused halfway, then turned to look at the red-dressed girl across the table with a somewhat apologetic gaze, and said helplessly, "But don't worry, Miss Jinyue! We're all here for the Immortal Alliance mission.

When we reach the airspace above Northern Luo Snow Village, the celestial ship will send out a small flying boat to safely carry our Wuji Sect disciples who can't fly down to the Snow Village..."

"It's just that at that time, Miss Jinyue might have to squeeze onto the small boat with Chen Jianxin and the others!"

"?_?"

As soon as Yunjin said this, the expression on Jinyue's face instantly froze.

She seemed to sense a challenge, lightly biting her white teeth, with a faint cold smile curling at the corners of her lips.

"I didn't realize Miss Yunjin was so kind-hearted, even thinking for my sake."

Jinyue said lightly.

She moved her chair, leaning forward, and her jade-like hand grabbed Yino's wrist:

"However, I think Miss Yunjin might have to ride the blue crane alone later."

"Hm!? Why?" Yunjin tilted her head.

"I believe Young Master won't bear to part with me!"

"?—?"

At the mention of himself, Yino couldn't help but turn his head, frowning.

He tried to break free from Jinyue's hand, but although the girl's arm was slender, her grip was not weak at all.

After several struggles, Yino not only failed to break free but ended up with Jinyue's jade-like hand interlocking fingers with his, firmly gripping Yino's palm.

However, considering that Yunjin was still watching from the side, both Yino and Jinyue tacitly kept their internal struggle from becoming too obvious.

"Young Master, are you really going to throw a weak girl like me onto that small boat? What if I get lured away by Chen Jianxin and the others..."

Jinyue spoke with a grievance-filled expression, which Yino found amusing.

She could be lured away by Chen Jianxin?

Yeah, right. The fact that she hadn't gotten Chen Jianxin and Yunjin killed like in the game story was already considered a show of conscience!

Yino didn't want to stay with Jinyue.

"If we get separated, Young Master might never see me again for this Snow Village mission!"

Jinyue's pure and lovely eyes lit up with a profound grin as she finished speaking.

Although her words sounded pitiful, she was secretly guiding Yino's hand to rest on her thigh.

On Jinyue's red dress, Yino could not only feel the girl's soft, slender jade-like leg but also clearly feel a hard bulge.

Instantly, Yino understood the implied threat in Jinyue's words — his token was still with her!

"Actually, I think we should indeed bring Senior Jinyue along."

"I suddenly remembered, my deer, she seems to know how to fly too..."

[Meh?]
