Chapter 781: Chapter 378: Sky-float Boat Arrives at Tianyin City_2
After a long period of contemplative silence,
the elder ancestor of the Yan Family, dressed in a gray robe, finally spoke in a low voice.
At the side of the Yan Family’s elder ancestor stood Yan Yin, the Young Family Head of the Yan Family and the successor to the next Family Head.
Upon hearing his family’s elder ancestor’s words, the light in his eyes dimmed significantly.
“Our decision, as well as our stance… is there truly no room for change?”
Yan Yin, with his head lowered, couldn’t help but mutter to himself.
And just when the atmosphere atop this city wall
became oppressive, suffocating, almost unbearable,
suddenly, from the void,
a Sky-float Boat could be seen approaching from a great distance.
At first, the size of the Sky-float Boat in one’s vision was merely the size of a palm.
But as time passed, and the boat gradually neared this place,
its size in people’s sight started to rapidly expand.
Similarly, as time elapsed,
and the size of the Sky-float Boat continuously expanded,
from all directions, a profound and heavy aura brewed, increasing unbearably.
“Elder ancestor, what… is that?”
Atop the city walls of Tianyin City,
Yan Yin, the Young Family Head of the Yan Family, silently raised his head, watching the massive vessel in the void as it steadily approached his location.
In his eyes emerged a deep confusion.
“It might be… the legendary Sky-float Boat?”
Replied the gray-robed elder standing beside Yan Yin.
Younger cultivators might not understand what exactly this vessel floating in the void was.
But being the Mortal Transcendence Realm elder ancestor of the secluded Yan Family,
he had at least heard of such mysterious objects that only existed in legends.
It is said that Sky-float Boats are the standard equipment of the powerful forces on the Xuanyuan Continent.
Only those with Sky-float Boats are eligible to navigate to other divine provinces.
Yet, Sky-float Boats have always been synonymous with rarity and preciousness.
Why, at this very moment…
would a Sky-float Boat appear in this place?
Above his Tianyin City?
And also, seemingly heading directly towards Tianyin City?
Is this truly just a figment of his own overthinking?
Or could this simply be an accident?
…
Outside Tianyin City, high in the sky,
at this moment, a 0.5 version of a Tortoise Shell Hovering Boat was speeding towards the location of Tianyin City.
At the bow of this 0.5 version Tortoise Shell Hovering Boat
stood Luo Yao, the next Family Head successor of the Qingshi City Luo Family.
The reason why Luo Yao had come again to Tianyin City
was mainly because the Luo Family of Qingshi City had decided to lend some assistance to the Yan Family of Tianyin City.
So, as the current Family Head, Luo Yao entrusted this crucial task to Luo Yao.
After all, within the vast Luo Family of Qingshi City,
these kinds of dirty and tiring tasks were usually handled by him, Luo Yao.
In fact, Luo Yao had thought about rejecting it for once.
But after careful consideration, Luo Yao still felt it better to obediently comply.
Otherwise, who knows if there would be more exhausting tasks thrown his way in the future?
It must be known that the old geezer, Luo Ping, currently sitting in the position of Family Head,
is undoubtedly someone with an extremely petty mind.
Rather than rowing against him, it’s better to stroke with the fur.
In doing so, Luo Yao could also suffer less.
“Should we be close now?”
After standing at the bow for a long time, Luo Yao, the heir to the Luo Family, turned towards the elderly figure beside him, dressed in black robes, slightly hunched,
wearing a head full of white hair and a gentile face,
yet there was an indistinctly emanating cold murderous aura from his body.
Indeed, this elderly figure was one of the Shadow Guard Three Great Commanders, Zhen.
The reason why Zhen was once again accompanying him
might primarily be because the two were quite familiar with each other.
After all, Luo Yao and Zhen had completed a task together once before.
“We’re almost there…”
“The city ahead is none other than Tianyin City, where the hidden Yan Family resides.”
Zhen, who was beside Luo Yao, said this in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, Luo Yao narrowed his eyes slightly.
Within his narrowed eyes, there was a glint of light flickering intermittently.
…
Although the Sky-float Boat Luo Yao was on was merely a 0.5 version of the Tortoise Shell Hovering Boat,
it was incapable of offense or defense.
The boat could accomplish neither.
Yet even so, even as an unfinished product of a Sky-float Boat,
its speed through the skies remained incredibly fast.
It could even be described as terrifying.
Thus, in the time it took for Luo Yao and Zhen to exchange a few words,
the Sky-float Boat had already sailed above Tianyin City and had ceased moving forward.
There, it silently hovered over the city.
…
Atop the city walls of Tianyin City,
as the Sky-float Boat above remained stationary over Tianyin City,
Yan Yin, the Young Family Head of the hidden Yan Family, and the family’s old ancestor,
were somewhat taken aback.
“Old Ancestor, didn’t you say…”
“That the Sky-float Boat was merely ‘passing by’ our Tianyin City?”
“Why has it suddenly stopped?”
The old ancestor of the Yan Family in Tianyin City, clad in a gray robe, couldn’t help but scratch his head with his right hand upon hearing this and said with some confusion, “This… I’m not quite sure either.”
Logically speaking, families or sect powers capable of deploying a Sky-float Boat
should have no relation with their Tianyin City Yan Family.
However, the current situation
left the old ancestor of the Yan Family in Tianyin City somewhat perplexed.
Even after racking his brain, the old ancestor couldn’t figure out why this was happening.
Could this also be a coincidence?
Was everything a coincidence?
The gray-robed old ancestor of the Yan Family pondered silently in his heart.
However, as the Sky-float Boat gradually began to lower its altitude,
and as the young man standing at the prow of the boat came into view of the old ancestor and the Young Family Head of the Yan Family,
they slowly began to understand the cause and effect of the entire affair.
If the one in control of the Sky-float Boat belonged to the Luo Family of Qingshi City,
then everything would make sense.
As for where the Luo Family of Qingshi City had acquired a Sky-float Boat,
that was no longer a question that concerned the two members of the Yan Family.
All they needed to know was that the Sky-float Boat did not come with hostile intentions towards their Tianyin City Yan Family,
rather, it had come to assist them; that was more than enough.
…
As the 0.5 version Sky-float Boat shrank and was eventually stored inside the storage ring by Luo Yao, the heir to the next head of the Luo Family,
the Young Family Head of the Yan Family quietly approached Young Master Luo of the Luo Family.
Yan Yin modestly bowed his head, which was typically held high in pride.
His expression somewhat respectful, he said in a low voice, “Welcome, Young Master…”
Indeed, Young Master.
Given the current relationship between the Yan Family of Tianyin City and the Luo Family of Qingshi City,
it was completely appropriate for Yan Yin to address Luo Yao as Young Master.
As for the old ancestor of the Yan Family in his gray robe, when Luo Yao arrived, he merely stood aside, watching intently with narrowed eyes.
The Yan Family ancestor had a cultivation at the Mortal Transcendence Initial Stage.
Although such a presence and realm were far from comparable to the old ancestors of the two great families, the Luo Family of Qingshi City and the Da Feng Dynasty’s Imperial Feng Family,
a cultivator in the Mortal Transcendence Realm was still considered an elder.
So his lack of action upon seeing Luo Yao was quite reasonable.
