Wang Changqing was Wang Mingjiang's most outstanding son and was currently responsible for leading teams to hunt Demon Beasts. His magical power was relatively pure. Wang Qiuyan was a Second Order Alchemist who could refine many kinds of Second-Grade Medicinal Pills. Their advancement to the Core Formation Stage would greatly benefit the family's development.

In the Council Hall, a clan elder was reporting the family's situation to Wang Qiuhong.

Wang Qiuhong had introduced quite a few policies encouraging childbirth. With sufficient financial support, the number of Wang Family members had increased rapidly. There were currently more than five hundred cultivators and over six hundred thousand mortals.

Of course, the population had grown so quickly for two reasons. First, there were the policies. Second, the Wang Family had annexed several small families.

Unlike in the Eastern Wasteland, cultivators and mortals in the South Sea Cultivation World lived together. This was something they had been forced to do.

Islands without cultivators stationed there were easily attacked by Sea Demons. The ocean was boundless, and there were many Demon Beasts. The chances of a massive Beast Tide breaking out were relatively low, but smaller Beast Tides were still fairly common. Without cultivators stationed there, mortals would certainly die once the Sea Demons attacked. Generally speaking, mortals lived on islands with Spirit Veins. The Spirit Veins provided spiritual energy to maintain the Formation's operation without affecting the cultivators' cultivation.

There were many islands in the Red Moon Sea Region. After the number of Wang Family cultivators increased, they expanded the area under their rule.

Aside from Silver Serpent Island, the Wang Family also controlled eleven Small Islands.
