The best Heavenly Centipede Ship can fly higher than giant cloud ships and over relatively high mountain peaks. Each section is a private cabin where people can rest. The downside is that the space is relatively small. Currently, the largest cabin is only slightly larger than a horse-drawn carriage.
The Kun boat is made by using the descendants of the Kunpeng to fight albatrosses.
It flies very high and can fly for long periods of time, but it can carry relatively few people. Someone once used the remains of a great albatross to make a similar Kun boat, which could carry three times more people.
However, the amount of spirit stones required is far too enormous, so apart from a few large families or sects, no ordinary people possess such a Kun ship.
Xiao Songjing finally convinced A Jiang to choose the Heavenly Centipede Ship.
The Heavenly Centipede Ship would stop and rest in every larger city it reached, and merchants would take the opportunity to trade goods. The managers of large trading companies usually had some cultivation, and they would also hire some cultivators to escort them. In addition, they could use their Qiankun Bags to carry a lot of goods, and the journey was very safe.
Therefore, many cultivators who fail to achieve their goals or are short of money choose this path.
Ah Jiang and her companion would also choose to disembark at this time to go for a stroll.
Pingtung City was the first city they encountered that was not protected by any immortal sect.
A-Jiang also became curious and took a walk around. He found that Pingtung City was not large in scale, but was protected by a moat and city walls. The architectural styles and residents' clothing inside were very diverse. Many of the shops on the street sold various exquisite handicrafts. The two found that the peach wood swords and peach pit carvings were quite famous here, so they asked a shop owner.
Seeing that they were from out of town and well-dressed, the shop owner enthusiastically introduced his products, telling stories as he sold them:
"You two are unaware of this, but the most famous person in our Pingtung City is the Peach Fairy Goddess on Fairy Mountain to the east."
As he spoke, he bowed with his hands clasped in a gesture of respect towards the east before continuing:
"At the top of Fairy Mountain, there is a peach tree that is thousands of years old. It is said that it has long since become an immortal, but because it lingered in the mortal world, it did not go to the immortal realm. Over the years, the area around Fairy Mountain has become full of peach trees. Because of the blessing of the Peach Fairy Goddess, the peaches that grow on these trees are especially delicious, and various objects made of peach wood are also very effective in warding off evil spirits. Later, more and more people lived here, and it became what it is today."
A-Jiang and Zhao Songjing found it interesting, so they bought all sorts of items. Then the shopkeeper recommended canned peaches and peach blossom wine, which Zhao Songjing readily bought as well.
"You two are kind-looking and generous guests. Let me tell you an interesting story."
He looked around and whispered, "Besides people, many demons also live in Pingtung City."
Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a glance, both becoming interested.
"Because of the Peach Fairy, most of the demons here are plant spirits. They are gentle and do not harm people. They can also produce some fruits and grains, which are better than most people. So the residents live together in harmony. Later, you two can walk around and test your eyesight."
That's an interesting thing, but the shopkeeper obviously hadn't finished speaking.
"However, something happened recently that has everyone feeling uneasy."
At this moment, the shopkeeper put on a worried look and said, "I can tell that you two are from extraordinary backgrounds. If you could lend a helping hand to the people of Pingtung City, it would be a great act of kindness."
Xiao Songjing remained silent, but A Jiang spoke up, saying, "Tell us what you think we can do to help."
Xiao Songjing glanced at her. He knew his place quite well; he was just a follower, and this was something A-Jiang had to decide.
