Xingtie: My silly online friend is actually a raccoon!

Lu Ze stood still, his gaze sweeping over the bustling pedestrians on the street.

Most of them wore long robes with cross-over collars and right-fastening fronts, wide sleeves, and cloth belts or jade buckles around their waists.

Lu Ze looked down at his plaid shirt and jeans, then at his sneakers, which stood out conspicuously in the antique setting, like a stick figure crammed into a traditional Chinese ink painting.

He steadied himself and stopped a man in a blue shirt who was passing by on the roadside.

"Excuse me, sir, could you please tell me where this place is?"

Lu Ze deliberately slowed down his speech, trying to make his words sound more elegant.

He had visited similar ancient-style worlds many times and summarized a golden rule: first understand the world's setting, then decide what to do next. And asking for directions is the first step in gathering information.

The man in the blue robe stopped and looked Lu Ze up and down.

Judging from his furrowed brows and slightly twitching lips, Lu Ze's somewhat awkward, semi-classical language was clearly making him uncomfortable.

The man in the blue robe showed a look of disgust and waved Lu Ze away from him: "Go away... Where did this barbarian come from, spouting such ancient language? This is the Immortal Ship Luofu."

Although the man in the blue robe wasn't exactly friendly, he at least left behind the most crucial information before departing.

After saying that, he left without looking back, the hem of his blue robe swirling rapidly behind him, clearly not wanting to spend a moment longer with this barbarian.

Lu Ze wasn't annoyed. He stood there and went over the four words "Fairy Boat Luofu" in his mind twice.

"Fairy Boat Luofu... Why does that sound so familiar?"

He frowned, trying to recall the name.

A sudden inspiration struck Lu Ze, and he slapped his thigh—wasn't this the immortal ship Luofu that Xing had told him about?

Xing had mentioned it too many times in casual conversations: the Six Emperors of Luofu, the Grand Diviner, General Jingyuan, and the alluring concept of immortality.

He remembered Xing saying that the Immortal Boat Alliance was a top-tier power in the entire universe, and that it should be relatively safe at this stage.

It seems that I have arrived in the universe on this side of the star.

Lu Ze raised his phone and took several pictures of the surrounding street scene.

The upturned vermilion eaves, the pedestrians on the stone path, and the pavilions and towers in the distance were all framed in the viewfinder.

He opened the chat software and sent all the photos to Xing at once.

[Jin Xing's son-in-law: Pictures, pictures, pictures]

[Venus's son-in-law: Is this the immortal ship Luofu you mentioned? I think I've been teleported here.]

After waiting quietly for a few minutes, there was no response from the other party after the message was sent.

Lu Ze glanced at the time on his phone and estimated the time difference between the two worlds, figuring that Xing was probably still asleep.

She's probably fast asleep right now, snuggled under her blanket, her phone under her pillow, so the vibration won't wake her up.

Lu Ze put away his phone. Since he couldn't contact them for the time being, instead of standing on the street waiting idly, he might as well take this time to wander around and experience the local customs and culture of this fairy ship.

Judging from the information revealed during Xing's casual conversation, Luo Fu is currently relatively peaceful. Although there was the invasion of the Great Monarch Huanlong and the Star Core Crisis in the past, those are things of the past. The Immortal Ship is now operating in an orderly manner.

For Lu Ze, this might be considered a rare opportunity to meet Xing in person.

He straightened his shirt collar and stepped into the bustling crowd, intending to find a place to kill time while waiting for Xing to reply to his message.
