Chapter 13 – Choosing a Cave
Chapter 13: Choosing a Cave
Jiang Chengxuan hurriedly returned the salute.
“Patriarch Shen is overpraising, it was just a fluke on my part.”
The two sides were polite to each other.
Only then did Shen Daoming smile and continue, “Come, come, fellow Daoist Jiang, let me introduce you.”
With that, he pointed to a man in green among the three.
“This is my clan brother, Shen Daofeng, currently an elder of my Shen Clan’s Immortal Clan’s Dharma Transmission Hall.”
“This is my and Ruyan’s cousin, Shen Rushang, a second-rank alchemist of my Shen Clan’s Immortal Clan.”
Shen Daoming pointed to the only woman among the three.
Finally, he pointed to the only Han among the three who was carrying a long sword and introduced him with a smile:
“As for this one, he is an elder who joined my Shen Clan from the outside just like you, Dao Friend Jiang.
Xiong Wanblade, is now an Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall of my Shen Clan of Immortals.”
”Hmm, Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall?
Jiang Chengxuan was slightly stunned in his heart, and subconsciously looked at this Xiong Wandao Xiong Elder one more time.
To be able to become the Law Enforcement Hall Elder of the Shen Clan’s Immortal Clan with the identity of a person with a foreign surname, it seemed that this Elder Xiong, was really trusted by the Shen Clan’s Immortal Clan.
After all, everyone knew that places like the Law Transmission Hall and Law Enforcement Hall could definitely be considered the core of a clan or family.
Anyone who was able to hold these positions would definitely be the core and most trusted group of people.
At this moment, this Elder Xiong seemed to notice Jiang Chengxuan’s gaze, and immediately smiled and nodded at him.
“Elder Jiang, turn around and when we have time, let’s get together.”
The words were sincere.
It could be seen that this Elder Xiong Wandao Xiong held a few good intentions towards Jiang Chengxuan.
Thinking about it.
However, any cultivator who was able to cultivate to the Foundation Establishment Stage, there wasn’t a single one who was a fool.
They try to make good karma with each other.
Who would have a pit in their head and intentionally offend a cultivator in the same realm as themselves for no reason?
Not to mention a cultivator like Jiang Chengxuan who had built his own foundation.
At this moment, while several people were talking, they had already arrived in a large hall of the Shen Clan’s Immortal Clan.
Shen Daoming took a token, a map, and a storage bag and smiled at Jiang Chengxuan:
“Fellow Daoist Jiang, from now on, you are my Shen Clan’s Immortal Clan’s guest elder, and my Shen Clan’s Immortal Clan’s ninth Foundation Establishment Elder.
This guest elder token that represents your identity you take, in the future, in my Shen Clan Immortal Clan, except for a few special areas, the rest of the places, you can go in and out at will with this token.”
With that, he handed the storage bag to Jiang Chengxuan again.
“Inside this storage bag, there is the guest elder salary belonging to you this year, a total of five hundred and fifty spirit stones, as well as some daily items, etc., so you can take a look at it in a while.
As for this map ……”
Shen Daoming handed Jiang Chengxuan that last map in his hand.
“This is my Shen Clan’s Immortal Clan’s so far, spare second-order cave residence, you can choose for yourself on this map, which cave residence you actually want, as your future cultivation place.
In addition, this map also marks the entire Pingchuan County as well as some of its neighboring regions, so you can get to know them yourself during your leisure time, Elder Jiang.”
Next, the few people exchanged a few more words with each other.
Only then did Shen Daoming look at Shen Ruyan with a smile and said, “Right, Ruyan, Elder Jiang has just come to our Shen Clan Immortal Clan, he should not be very familiar with many places in our Shen Clan Immortal Clan, so why don’t we continue to trouble you to lead Elder Jiang to go around everywhere and familiarize himself with it in a while, how about it?”
“Can.”
Shen Ruyan nodded with a smile.
Some time later.
Shen Ruyan then took Jiang Chengxuan and left that large hall.
Looking at the disappearing backs of the two, Shen Daoming couldn’t help but look at the three people present with a smile and asked:
“Dao Feng, Cousin Rushan, and Old Xiong, what do you think of that Jiang Chengxuan?”
Shen Daofeng, who was dressed in green clothes, nodded and simply spat out two words.
“It’s fine.”
Shen Rushang, who was referred to as her cousin, then pondered for a moment before saying:
“It’s not apparent for the time being, but taking up the position of Guest Elder of my Shen Clan’s Immortal Clan, on the contrary, shouldn’t be too much of a problem.”
The last Xiong Wandao then hemmed and hawed.
“I say, Clan Chief Shen, what’s the point of thinking so much now?
It’s natural to see what people are like over time.
Could it be that you’re still afraid that he’ll abduct that sister of yours?”
At those words, Shen Daoming couldn’t help but lose his smile.
Couldn’t help but is reach out and nod Xiong Wanjie.
“You old bear, you really still have this nature.”
……
At the same time, Shen Ruyan brought Jiang Chengxuan, turned around in the entire Shen Clan Immortal Clan, roughly familiarized himself with the environment, and then according to the map in Jiang Chengxuan’s hand, brought him to a few unoccupied second-order cave dwellings outside to look around, and only then smiled and said:
“How’s it? Elder Jiang, is there any which cave you have your eye on?”
Jiang Chengxuan looked at the map in his own hands and thought for a moment, then pointed to one of the most secluded areas and said:
“This is it.”
A hint of surprise appeared on Shen Ruyan’s face.
“Elder Jiang, are you really sure you want to choose this place?
After all, this second-order cave residence is not the best second-order unoccupied cave residence that my Shen Clan of Immortals currently has.”
“Hmm, sure, let’s make it this cave residence.”
Jiang Chengxuan nodded affirmatively.
He had already considered it very clearly before coming.
This time, he had joined the Shen Clan of Immortals in order, to seek a relatively peaceful and undisturbed cultivation environment for himself.
He had just looked at the rest of the several cave dwellings before.
Indeed.
Those several caves were all considered good.
One or two of them could even be said to be the superior caves among the second-order caves.
But in Jiang Chengxuan’s opinion, none of those caves quite met his requirements.
To put it bluntly, they weren’t remote enough.
Unlike the one Jiang Chengxuan had chosen now, it was located in the deepest part of all the Shen Clan’s Immortal Clan’s caverns, quite a distance away from the other second-order caverns, and most of the surrounding environment was still in a relatively primitive state.
Such a place, not to mention the ordinary Shen Clan members basically will not come over.
Even for those Foundation Establishment Elders, if they were to come to such a place, it would probably take them quite some time.
Once they come and go, the effort they would have to spend would not be small.
Unless there was really something special, otherwise, it was probably too lazy to run so far away.
“Alright then.”
Shen Ruyan was somewhat helpless.
She also didn’t expect that Jiang Chengxuan would end up choosing a cave like that.
Obviously there are other better cave dwellings to choose from, but as a result, this Elder Jiang was ……
Shaking her head, Shen Ruyan couldn’t help but smile and said to Jiang Chengxuan:
“Since that’s the case, then I’ll take you there.”
“Well, trouble Elder Ruyan.”
Because of being in the Shen Clan’s Immortal Clan, it was clearly no longer appropriate for Jiang Chengxuan to address Shen Ruyan as Dao Friend Shen.
Addressing Elder Shen, if so many people were surnamed Shen, calling Elder Shen was obviously not very appropriate either.
In the end, Shen Ruyan opened her own mouth, letting Jiang Chengxuan directly address her name, or Ruyan will be fine.
However, Jiang Chengxuan thought about it and still added a suffix after her name.
