Everyone looked up, a white spirit boat was approaching in the distance, it was huge with a total of three levels, the mixed aura on it could be faintly sensed, seems like there were already many people on board.

Perhaps because the empty space was too small, the spirit boat did not land but remained floating above everyone. In moments, two people dressed in the same clothes as the female cultivators from earlier flew down from above.

They conversed with the leader lady on this side before announcing loudly, “Everyone, this is the spirit boat sent by Dawning Pill Sect, it will bring everyone to a safe place.”

Everyone was instantly overjoyed, the lady conjured seals with both hands and set up a simple transportation array before instructing,

“Please board through this transportation array.” As she spoke, she looked around then walked towards them and said with cupped fists, “Two young masters, please board first.”

Both Lonemoon and Yi Qing were stunned, why were they boarding first? But seeing that everyone else wasn’t moving, it didn’t seem suitable to ask anymore questions. Nodding and giving their thanks, they walked to the transportation array, Shen Ying in tow.

There was no problem with the array, once they stepped in, a white light flashed and they were instantly transported to the spirit boat. As expected, the spirit boat was already crowded with hordes of people. Just like the people below, they seemed to be refugees, most wore looks like they’d just escaped a disaster and there were also many female cultivators dressed in the same green robes on board.

Seeing the few of them board, everyone looked over in curiosity. Unsure whether it was an illusion, Lonemoon somehow felt that the scene went quiet for a moment, even those two people receiving them beside the array formation fell in a momentary daze.

“Huh? How did….” The girl on the right froze for a moment, as if coming back to her senses a second after, she turned to a disciple at the side and asked, “Are there anymore empty rooms on the top deck?”

The disciple paused and thought for a while before nodding. “Yes, yes yes! It was initially prepared for Uncle-Master Zheng but she went to examine Fallen Night so she’s not with us.”

“Then let these two young masters stay there first!” With that said,, she turned towards Lonemoon and Chef, her gaze became gentler as she spoke, “Young Masters, we still need another three days to arrive at the nearest town, we will have to stay on the spirit boat for some time, I apologize for the simple and plain conditions on the boat, please follow me.” Then she turned and walked towards the staircase.

“Thank you!” Lonemoon felt even odder deep down but still followed.

Chef and Shen Ying naturally followed behind him.

Unfortunately, in less than a couple of steps, the female cultivator at the side was shocked and nimbly dragged Shen Ying back, glaring at her with anger in her eyes. “What are you following us for?”

“Ah?!” Shen Ying stared blankly and took a step back, was she not supposed to follow?

“Run along.” That female cultivator was even more enraged and very rudely pointed at the deck below. “You can’t go up, you can only stay below.”

“…” Why?

“Master!” Yi Qing’s gaze turned cold as he directly reached out and pulled Shen Ying back to him, his icy look shifting towards the girl.

The girl instantly felt a chill in her heart as she was stunned, she indistinctly felt a scary aura surging towards her.

“Chef!” Lonemoon quickly called out, managing to stop the person who was about to blow up.

The girl leading the way in front was also stunned, sweeping a glance at Shen Ying, she said in slightly surprise. “She’s your Master? Then are you all… cultivators?”

Lonemoon then turned around with cupped fists and smiled. “Immortal Elder, the three of us are indeed cultivators.” As he spoke, he released the spirit pressure of the Foundation Establishment phase.

The girl’s eyes widened, becoming even more surprised. She quickly returned the bow, saying, “Please don’t call me Immortal, Elder! Turns out its three fellow Daoists, we have been ignorant.”

“You’re too polite.” Lonemoon continued. “It’s just my friend here doesn’t really know the way well, it’s really inconvenient for her to be separated from us… can you…” He couldn’t imagine letting Shen Ying out of their sight, 100% she would get lost!

The girl was at a loss for a moment, don’t know the way? Would get lost on the spirit boat? But after glancing at the two males, something came to mind and she compromised in the end. “Since everyone are cultivators, we’ll arrange for her to stay next door?”

“Many thanks fellow Daoist.” Lonemoon smiled politely and gave his thanks again.

The girl blushed instantly, quickly waving her hand with a smile. “You’re welcome, it’s our duty, it’s our duty!” Then she led all of them upstairs.

Only after arriving on the top deck, did they realize that while this spirit boat seemed big, its interior wasn’t any luxurious at all. It seemed like it was specially used to transport people. Other than Lonemoon and Chef’s room which had a relatively more complete set of furniture, the others were really just rooms, not even a chair could be seen.

Especially, after being shoved next door, she only realized that there were a dozen of female cultivators dressed in long robes inside already. Some were resting with their eyes closed, others were meditating, everyone had some injuries on them.

Seeing her walk in, they all looked up, multiple gazes swept across her, unsure whether it was an illusion, she somehow felt that gazes were a little odd. The female cultivator who showed her in left a word of explanation and left, the people then retracted their gazes and went on with their own business, not paying any more extra attention to her.

Shen Ying did not too much either, after confirming that there were indeed no chairs, she pulled out a thick cushion, found a corner and settled down, calmly munching on her own fruits.

So boring, when would her meal be ready?

She did not sit for too long, after about two fruits’ time a familiar aroma came wafting. In the next second, the door opened with a creak and Chef walked over carrying a table full of food, he stopped without looking neither left nor right before Shen Ying, placed the small table down and handed a pair of chopsticks over. “Master, time for your meal.”

“Okay.” Shen Ying quickly finished the fruit she was holding then took the chopsticks. Right in front of a dozen people in the whole room, she started eating alone.

Before the female cultivators recovered from the shock from the male suddenly walking in, the aroma of delicacies wafted to them. Despite the fact that these people had abstained from eating for a long time, their stomachs still rumbled from the smell.

Hence the sounds of swallowing instantly echoed in the room, so… so fragrant…

( ̄『̄)

Didn’t Senior Sister say earlier that this lady was a cultivator too? Why did she still need to eat? And enjoying her food so much?

Yet the two people had no self-awareness that they were tempting people at all, one munched on happily while the other occasionally served a glass of water, handed a napkin, even introduced the dishes from the side.

“Master, Father Niu isn’t here, you can eat slower, no hurry.”

Master, try this stew meat? I kept it cooking using spirit qi, the timing is just right, it melts in the mouth.”

“Master, this spirit soup is thick and aromatic, I have more here, would you like another bowl?”

“Master…”

With every sentence he said, everyone swallowed a mouthful of saliva, feeling like the aroma became even more fragrant. Finally, someone could not take it anymore and stood up, saying as she walked out, “I’ll go switch shifts with Junior Sister.”

“I also feel much better now, I’ll go too.”

“And me! I’ll go catch a breather!”

“Wait for me…”

In moments, more than half of the entire room left. Yet the two without self-awareness continued to eat like there was nobody around.
