Yun Yan'er, Ying, Lin Xiaofeng and Li Ai, although they all changed into simple clothes, their innate extraordinary temperament and outstanding appearance were like bright stars, difficult to conceal. Walking on the streets of Qingzhou, their every step attracted the eyes of the people around them, and those eyes were both amazed and curious.

Yun Yan'er was wearing an elegant green dress, the hem of which swayed gently in the wind, like a blooming green lotus. Her hair was like a waterfall, and was simply tied up with a jade hairpin. A few strands of black hair fell on her shoulders inadvertently, adding a bit of softness to her. Her eyes were deep, as if they contained endless stars and the sea, and every movement revealed agility and wisdom.

Ying was wearing a tight black suit, with a slender and upright figure, like a shadow in the night. His face was stern, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle, as if he could see through all the vanity in the world. He walked steadily, and every step seemed so calm, as if the whole world was under his control.

Lin Xiaofeng was dressed like a scholar, wearing a blue shirt and holding a folding fan with a landscape painting on it, which made him look more gentle and elegant. His smile was as warm as the spring sun, and every smile made people feel good about him. His eyes revealed a kind of depth and wisdom, as if he could see through people's hearts.

Li was dressed in plain grey clothes, but her temperament was like that of a kind elder, giving people a sense of security and warmth. Her face was kind, and her eyes revealed a gentleness and wisdom that seemed to be able to dispel all the sorrows in the world.

The streets of Qingzhou were bustling and bustling, with a dazzling array of shops on both sides, selling all kinds of goods. Yun Yan'er, Ying, Lin Xiaofeng and Li Ai walked among them, and from time to time they were attracted by some novel goods and stopped to look. They were well-off, so they naturally would not be stingy, so they had a big meal in a restaurant and tasted all kinds of Qingzhou specialties. After eating and drinking, they went to the street market and shopped to their heart's content.

Especially Lu Xuanxin, she seemed to be a shopping maniac, whether it was food, daily necessities or clothes, as long as she thought it was interesting or useful, she would stuff it into her storage ring. Others also prepared sufficient supplies for the upcoming sea trip.

They were all quite strong, and especially after going through a lot of things, they had learned to keep a low profile. Outsiders knew they were not easy to mess with as soon as they saw their aura, so no one dared to cause trouble to them easily.

After a good night's sleep in the best inn in Qingzhou, they prepared to set off for the Central Region. There was only one way to get to the Central Region, and that was to take a boat across the vast ocean. The sea was not safer than land. Not only were there strong winds and waves, but there were also threats from sea beasts and birds, and they had to guard against storms and pirates.

There were many people waiting to take a boat at the beach. They all wanted to go to the Central Region but were afraid that it would be unsafe to go alone, so they waited here, hoping to go together when there were more people. These people had different levels of cultivation. Some had reached the peak of the spiritual phase, and some had even broken through the spiritual pill realm. Of course, there were also some monks with low cultivation who planned to pay to take a ride on a boat to the Central Region. There were also some young monks with extraordinary talents who were escorted by the elders of their families to develop in the Central Region.

However, no one can say for sure whether they can reach the Central Region safely, because no one who has gone there has ever returned, and their lives or deaths are unknown. But even so, everyone is still waiting here with a glimmer of hope, hoping to get on a safe ship to the Central Region.

As soon as Lu Xuanxin and his group appeared, they attracted everyone's attention. There were quite a few of them, and their cultivation levels were different. Some were strong ones like Li Ai, who had a strong aura; and some were juniors like Qin Lan, who had only reached the Spirit King realm. But they were dressed gorgeously and had an extraordinary aura, so many people secretly looked at them.

"You all want to take a boat across the sea, right? Why not join us? We have five powerful spiritual elixir masters, one mid-level spiritual elixir, and twenty spiritual masters on our boat. We are definitely the safest team!" A young man holding a fan came over with arrogance on his face, but his eyes kept glancing at beauties like Gui Jianxiao and Qin Lan.

His clothes were gorgeous and his fan was painted with landscape patterns, which made him look a bit arty. His eyes revealed a kind of confidence and arrogance, as if he thought his fleet was the most powerful in the sea.

"It's not bad to come to our Xuanyun ship. We also have five powerful spiritual pill masters and the fees are fair and absolutely affordable!" Another young man in a blue robe also came over to promote their fleet. He had a smile on his face and looked very enthusiastic.

"Let's come to our Tianji League's ship. We have a powerful Spirit Emperor on board, so your safety is absolutely guaranteed!" A young man in golden armor also came over. Their fleet was obviously a powerful force in this sea.

"Hmph! What's the Tianji Alliance! It's a wise choice to come to our Xuanlong ship. We have been sailing in this sea for decades and are experienced. We can guarantee that everyone will arrive safely!" A middle-aged woman in black tights also came over. There was a look of disdain on her face. It was obvious that she did not take the Tianji Alliance's fleet seriously.

As soon as he finished speaking, several people came over to solicit customers. Lu Xuanxin was stunned and turned to look at Lin Xiaofeng and Yun Yan'er. Yun Yan'er shrugged and smiled bitterly and said, "It's my first time going out far away. I didn't know there were so many rules."

Lin Xiaofeng explained softly, "Where there are many people, there is demand. Where there is demand, there is business opportunity. Many families in these coastal cities will send strong people to be sea merchants. Those who want to go to the Central Region can take a boat as long as they pay spirit stones, but they are still responsible for their own safety."

His words revealed an insight and understanding of the world. He knew that there was no absolute safety in this world and only one's own strength was the most reliable guarantee.

"The sea is dangerous and no one can guarantee absolute safety. Most of the time, we have to rely on ourselves." Lin Xiaofeng continued, "Those with more spirit stones can choose ships with Central Domain backgrounds, but those ships are not completely safe for self-defense. It's the same wherever you are."

His words made everyone fall into deep thought. They knew that there was no absolute safety in this world and only their own strength could protect them.

As the leader of the Three Star Sect, Jun Jinghong also knew a thing or two about these things. He suggested that everyone travel together. After all, Ying, Yun Yan'er and Lin Xiaofeng were all powerful Spiritual Emperors and did not need protection from others. And those ships in the Central Region were often greedy and had to be guarded against more carefully.

However, the representative of the Xuanlong Ship, the middle-aged woman, cursed Jun Jinghong fiercely after hearing what he said, "poor bastard" and turned away. Her attitude made Jun Jinghong so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. But the young man of the Tianji League smiled and kept them: "If you don't have enough spirit stones, I can give you some discounts for the sake of all the beauties. And our ship will set sail soon."

There was a hint of cunning in his smile, and he was obviously using the charm of the beauties to win them over. However, the girls looked unhappy when they heard this, but they didn't say anything. They knew that in this world, strength is the most important thing and beauty is only temporary.

Nangong Yi asked in a deep voice: "When will we set sail?" He was well aware of the ins and outs of business and knew that time was very important for businessmen.

The young man thought for a moment and replied, "In three days." His tone revealed a kind of confidence, as if he felt that their fleet would be able to set sail on time in three days.

"Three days is considered fast?" Gui Jianxiao got angry when he heard it. "If it's not fast, then when are we waiting?" She has a straightforward personality and doesn't like to delay time.

The young master explained with a smile: "Ask these people, who isn't waiting for a month or even a year? Our ship set sail in three days, which is already very fast because it is full." There was a hint of pride in his smile, as if he felt that his fleet was the most popular on this sea.

Lu Xuanxin and the others were stunned when they heard this. Were these people going to wait here for several months or even a year? Wouldn't they practice then? Just wait here all day? They felt that this was simply a waste of time.

Jun Jinghong asked those who had formed his own team again: "When will you set sail?" There was a hint of urgency in his tone, and it was obvious that he didn't want to waste any more time.

The men looked at each other and finally one of them said, "If we can find ten more men, we can set off immediately." This was the truth. Their fleet needed more men before it could set off and finding ten men was not an easy task.

Jun Jinghong fell silent when he heard this. Find ten more people? This is not an easy task! After all, not everyone can go to the Central Region. He knew that it was not easy to find ten suitable people because not everyone had enough strength and courage to take the risk in the Central Region.

At this moment, a voice rang out: "If you don't mind, our Tianyu Trading Company's ship can set off immediately, but the cost is a little higher." As soon as this was said, everyone turned their heads to look over. A middle-aged man in a gorgeous robe walked over with a confident smile on his face, as if he felt that his proposal was the best choice.

At this time, Madam Feng gently twisted her waist, like a breeze in spring, and slowly walked in front of everyone. She had a warm and gentle smile on her face, which seemed to dispel the haze in people's hearts and make people feel close to her involuntarily. She said softly, "Hello, everyone." Her voice was soft and magnetic, like the sound of nature, which made people feel relaxed and happy.

No one on the scene said anything. Even the major forces in the Central Region, such as the Black Dragon Ship and the Tianji League, seemed to be somewhat restrained at this moment, and did not dare to easily compete with the Tianyu Trading Company. They knew that although the Tianyu Trading Company was usually low-key, its strength should not be underestimated, especially in terms of sea navigation, where it had rich experience and strong strength.

Nangong Yi finally asked, "How much is the 'little expensive' you mentioned?" There was a hint of doubt in his voice, and he was obviously a little worried about the "little expensive" that Madam Feng mentioned.

Madam Feng smiled as brightly as a flower, and her smile seemed to infect the people around her, making them feel happy. "One hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones or ten thousand medium-grade spirit stones will be enough for each guest." She said softly, revealing a sense of confidence in her voice.

Madam Feng was originally the director of the Tianyu Trading Company in the Nebula Empire, but she recently received a sudden transfer order to take several geniuses on a merchant ship to the Central Region. Although she was nervous, she did not dare to disobey the order and could only do it. She knew that this mission was of great importance and she had to go all out.

Although Tianyu Trading Company's merchant ships occasionally carry passengers, the fees are high and not affordable for ordinary people. This merchant ship is the pride of Tianyu Trading Company. It is huge and luxurious, with exquisite patterns carved on the hull, and every part of it reveals a luxurious atmosphere. The sails flutter in the wind, like a huge seabird soaring on the blue sea.

"One hundred thousand spirit stones? Isn't this just robbery?" Gui Jianxiao jumped up when she heard it, her eyes widened as if they could spit fire. Before others could say anything, she couldn't hold back. She knew that one hundred thousand spirit stones was a huge sum of money for ordinary people, and even for a three-star sect like Yaowang Valley, it was not something that could be taken out easily.

One hundred thousand spirit stones, that is just like the value of a small spirit vein. Who in the East Region can easily take it out? Even those wealthy families or sects would not easily spend so many spirit stones on a merchant ship. After all, few people would store a large amount of consumables such as spirit stones. The Tianji League and the Xuanlong Ship only charge 20,000 spirit stones per person, and many people think it is expensive. Not to mention those who organized themselves, 10,000 spirit stones per person is enough. After sailing on the sea for more than a month, few people would spend a large amount of spirit stones on a flying ship.

Eleven people together amount to 1.1 million spirit stones, which is a huge sum of money. But for Lu Xuanxin, Yun Yaner, Lin Xiaofeng and others, it is just a number. As genius disciples of the Nebula Secret Realm, they are wealthy and naturally don't care about these spirit stones. However, Lu Xuanxin was still a little unhappy about being "cheated" by his own company. He felt that Tianyu Company's actions this time were indeed a bit unfair.
