Chapter 448 -109: The Wang Family Rising! Visitors from All Directions Arrive_3
At this moment.
The large ferry had arrived, and everyone orderly got on board in succession, with corresponding positions for the carriages to park. With the expansion of the ferry terminal, the throughput on both sides had increased. A ferry now came and went every half an hour, and at the moment it was only carrying half its capacity.
Just after Liang Haofeng and these two small families had boarded the ship, suddenly, a huge procession of carriages appeared outside the ferry terminal. One of the knights, appearing middle-aged, spurred his horse to the front of the ferry and shouted, “Wait for the ferry. I am Gongsun Qiang, we of the Gongsun Clan of Shanyang are boarding.”
The manager in charge of the large ferry shivered in response, hastily bowing his head in acknowledgement, “I obey Elder Qiang’s commands.” These ferries were all managed by the Wang family.
And Gongsun Qiang of Shanyang was no ordinary man, even Master Shouzhe had to politely address him as uncle when he met him.
The other ferry passengers naturally had no objections. The Gongsun Clan of Shanyang was now a Grade Eight Prominent Family, and moreover, it was the maternal clan of Master Shouzhe, making its status extraordinary.
A convoy of carriages drove into the ferry terminal.
As people and carriages needed to be separated when boarding, all members of the Gongsun family got off their carriages and boarded the ship on foot as required.
“That’s Elder Gongsun Meng from the Gongsun Clan.” Liang Haofeng said with narrowed eyes, “After a hurried eighteen years of not seeing him, has Gongsun Meng’s strength already reached such an unfathomable level? I can’t see through him at all anymore, I’m afraid he’s already reached the fifth or sixth level of the Spiritual Platform Realm.”
“Elder Meng is barely a hundred years old now.” Sun Yunfei also said with a hint of envy, “With his age and cultivation base, combined with the Gongsun Clan’s great wealth, it’s hopeful that Elder Meng will reach the Heavenly Human Realm.”
Just as the two of them were about to approach and pay their respects.
Suddenly, one of the carriages contained an elderly lady who was helped down by two middle-aged women. Her hair was white, yet she looked dignified and wealthy, with a crowd around her like a wealthy family’s Grand Aunt.
She looked at Changning’s official crossing and the surging Peace River, and her old tears fell, “Last time I returned to my natal home was on the day of Shouzhe’s wedding, and it’s been eighteen or nineteen years in a blink of an eye. I didn’t expect that I could still be alive to see Grand Aunt Longyan’s promotion to the Heavenly Human Realm. I’m afraid, this is my last return to my natal home.”
“Grand Aunt.” The current Clan Leader of the Gongsun Clan, Gongsun Yan, was now a mature man in his thirties. He helped the old lady onto the ship himself and said with a smile, “You’re only eighty-two this year and still in good health. Didn’t Cousin Shouzhe bring back a few longevity pills from the Academic Palace and personally gave you one?”
“You have many occasions to come back to your natal home in the future. Nephew Zong’an will be getting married in a few years. You should certainly come back for that. Besides, Cousin Shouzhe said he would let you wait for his promotion to the Heavenly Human Realm.”
As soon as Wang Shouzhe was mentioned, the old lady laughed heartily, “Shouzhe is good in all aspects, but just doesn’t know how to economize. I and Xiao Hui, Xiao Zhi are so old now…”
Another woman, a little older but well-preserved, also helped the old lady and said, “That’s just Shouzhe being filial. He said that our Wang family’s fifth generation, the Zhen character generation, only has you left. He will do as much as he can. Shouzhe always sends people to give me various beauty and skincare products.”

Seeing this, Liang Haofeng on the side quickly figured out who these two women were.
One was Wang Zhenrong, from the Wang family’s fifth generation Zhen character line. The other one was Wang Liuyu, from the Liuyu character line. Although both of them had married into the direct line of the Gongsun Clan, as the Wang family became increasingly powerful, their status within the Gongsun Clan also rose with the tide.
After all, Liang Haofeng was now relying on the Wang Family for his survival, so it made sense for him to research the genealogy of the Wang family. He immediately went up and greeted them with a smile, “Liang Haofeng pays his respects to the members of the Gongsun Clan.”
One should always flatter when necessary, so as to leave a good impression on Master Shouzhe later. After all, Master Shouzhe seemed the kind of person who greatly valued his family elders.
Just as they were talking.
Suddenly!
On the river, a man was flying across the river, each time he fell, he would touch the water surface and then soar up like a giant bird flying. In the surging river, his seemingly small figure seemed so heroic.
“That’s Elder Xiao Han…” Gongsun Qiang said with sharp eyes.
“Who would have thought that Brother Xiao Han would come to meet us.” Wang Zhenrong was both overjoyed and lamented.
