The Star Train's Journey Through the Heavens

Chapter 121 The gathering ends, everyone is well.

Time passes day by day.

In the large manor provided by Jingyuan, Jingliu taught Sanyueqi and Yanqing swordsmanship in the courtyard, while Zhongren set up a forging furnace in the corner to forge the weapon he promised Meng Huaifeng. He also took the opportunity to maintain the Shihuomeng body and Jiyun spear for Jingyuan and Danheng.

On the other side, Jingyuan and Danheng were playing chess, while Bailu was watching cartoons and occasionally playing games in her room.

Bai Heng would sometimes watch Jingliu teach his disciples, sometimes hand Ren a glass of water and wipe his sweat, sometimes give the two chess players bad advice, or watch TV series and play games with Bai Lu.

The main feature is to soak up both rain and dew.

Ren turned to look at Bai Heng, then swung the forging hammer with even more force, striking a few times before turning to look again, repeating this cycle over and over.

Dan Heng suddenly grabbed Jing Yuan's hand, pried a chess piece out of his hand, and put it back on the chessboard. He glared at Jing Yuan, who met Dan Heng's gaze without any embarrassment. Meanwhile, Jing Yuan secretly took another chess piece with his other hand.

"Whoosh."

A sword aura shot towards Jing Yuan's hand, startling him so much that he quickly put the chess piece back.

The group didn't stay cooped up in the manor all the time; they would occasionally go out for a stroll, check out the current state of the immortal ship, and patronize Meng Huaifeng's business.

Deep down, I was still somewhat unwilling to accept it and wanted to see if starting over could change my future.

Jingliu swiftly dealt with Hulei, and without waiting to completely annihilate Buliren, he left the battlefield to support Baiheng, successfully stalling until Tengxiao arrived.

With the activation of the Divine Lord Jingyuan, the appearance of the second Hunting Envoy led to a crushing defeat for the Fengrao Army.

Dan Heng acted cautiously, and his army was not trapped by the sudden ambush. This allowed him to avoid forcibly holding off the enemy and fighting them to the death. With the help of the NPC Bai Heng, he maneuvered and delayed the enemy, successfully holding out until Teng Xiao's reinforcements arrived.

Only Blade's strength lies largely in his immortality, but his lethality is insufficient. When he arrived at Bai Heng's battlefield, NPC Dan Feng was already in a frenzy, and he was also tightly restrained by the Abundance Envoy. In the end, it was NPC Bai Heng who made a desperate gamble.

When Renkuku woke up from the storytelling, he was emanating black energy. Fortunately, Bai Heng was right next to him and prevented him from falling into the demonic aura.

It must be said that Bai Heng is more effective than Kafka's Word of Power for Blade.

Dan Heng also led everyone on a tour of the Starry Sky Train, which warmly welcomed Bai Heng, this wild, nameless guest, fulfilling Bai Heng's long-cherished wish.

Dan Heng couldn't resist being a little cunning and secretly asked Himeko to make a few cups of hand-ground coffee, which he then provided to Ren separately.

Blade's face remained expressionless, but one could see that his brows were slightly furrowed.

Dan Heng enthusiastically offered to refill Ren's cup, but Ren's sharp eyes shot towards Dan Heng. Not wanting to spoil Bai Heng's mood, he gritted his teeth and continued drinking expressionlessly.

While strolling through Jinren Lane, a swan crashed into Xiaobailu's body.

Just as Suiyang was enticing Xiaobailu to play in the spiritual world, the five people had already surrounded Xiaobailu in a circle.

Although Bai Heng now has a physical body and can eat and drink, he is actually a spiritual energy body, which is similar to Sui Yang.

Bai Heng's body disappeared, and the next moment he appeared in Xiao Bailu's mental world.

Before Suiyang could react, Baiheng had already piloted the Star Chariot and smashed it out of the mental world.

Jingyuan, who was already prepared, grabbed Suiyang in his hand.

This unlucky fellow possessed Bai Lu right in front of Yun Shang Wu Xiao; he was incredibly audacious. Even Huan Long would have to admit he admired him.

Day 10, Lin Yuan Realm Square.

"cheers!"

On March 7th, I took a photo of the five of us raising our glasses in a toast.

Nighttime at the manor.

Lying in bed, Jingyuan clutched the group photo, unable to sleep all night.

"The time has come, we can't delay any longer," Jing Yuan murmured, putting away the photos and getting out of bed.

"Bang bang."

Jingyuan knocked on the door of Jingliu's room.

"Crench."

The door opened quickly.

"You've finally arrived. I've been waiting for you for so long." Jing Liu, bathed in moonlight, spoke with an ethereal grace and aloofness.

Clearly, she hadn't rested either.

"Master, you... should leave." Jing Yuan opened his mouth, but changed his mind at the last minute.

"Oh? I thought you were here to capture me." Jingliu smiled slightly. "Rakshasa has already been captured by your Taibu. Aren't you afraid of being held accountable by the Alliance if you let me go?"

"At worst, I'll just quit being a general. To be honest, I'm tired too. Although Fu Qing is still a bit green, he's already capable of handling things on his own," Jing Yuan said nonchalantly.

Even if he's no longer a general, he's not dead. If anything really happens to Luofu, he can still help.

"But my purpose in coming here is to be captured by the Immortal Ship," Jing Liu said quietly.

“I don’t know what you and that person are planning, but she’s back now, can’t we just give up?” Jing Yuan asked.

"No." A red light flashed in Jingliu's eyes: "The war of the gods is inevitable, and the apothecary must die!"

Jing Yuan closed her eyes slightly. This might be the only obsession that had sustained Jing Liu until now, allowing her to regain her rationality within the demonic body. Her will was so firm that even Bai Heng probably couldn't change her mind.

"I understand. I will send someone to the Dark Prison." Jing Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Will you die?"

"At least until the pharmacist falls, it shouldn't be," Jingliu said.

"Once the plan succeeds and you've escaped the alliance, make sure you contact Bai Heng as often as possible to let her know you're not dead, so she won't blame me later," Jing Yuan said irritably.

"I can do it without you telling me."

Jing Yuan waved his hand, and two Cloud Cavalry soldiers walked behind Jing Liu.

Jingliu stretched out his hands and brought them together.

“No need.” Jing Yuan shook his head: “Take the prisoner to the dark prison.”

Jingyuan watched Jingliu's figure disappear completely, then walked to Ren's room. He felt a pang of sadness and great distress.

He stood there for a long time, and just as Jing Yuan was about to knock on the door, the door opened and Ren appeared in front of it.

“You should leave now. I’ll pretend you were never here,” Jing Yuan said.

Blade is not only a wanted criminal by the company, but also a wanted criminal by the alliance, and a henchman in the Rebellion of Drinking Moon.

"I'm not leaving." Blade shook his head.

"Not leaving? Give me a reason that will grant you forgiveness." Like Danheng.

"No." Blade continued to shake his head.

Enraged, Jing Yuan grabbed Ren's collar and roared in a low voice, "If you won't leave, there's no reason. Then go to the Prison of Darkness!"

He could keep the Alliance's wanted criminals in check for a while after they appeared on the Immortal Ship, but if they stayed there indefinitely, even a general like him wouldn't be able to stand idly by.

"Even if we go to the prison, we won't leave."

Jing Yuan pushed hard, and Ren staggered and fell to the ground. "Do you think your crimes can be resolved by being imprisoned in the Dark Prison for a while? Let me tell you, no matter how long you live, you will never get out of there in this lifetime!" Jing Yuan was furious, but he never forgot to keep his voice low.

"Get out of here before I change my mind!" Jing Yuan turned his back to the blade.

Jingliu was trapped in the demonic darkness and had no choice but to accept it. Danheng had at least shed his scales and been reborn. Only Ren remained one of the culprits who caused the chaos of Yinyue.

Jingyuan's attitude towards him was not as gentle as it was towards Jingliu.

Ren stood up silently. He just wanted to be closer to Bai Heng, even if it meant being in the Netherworld Prison. Knowing that Bai Heng was on the same immortal ship as him made his tormenting spirit a little easier.

As for the punishments and tortures in the prison, that would be even better; it would be best to kill him every now and then.

“You can still contact Bai Heng online after leaving the Immortal Ship. Even if you sneak back a few times, I can turn a blind eye. But you absolutely cannot stay on the Immortal Ship openly forever,” Jing Yuan advised again.

Ren's heart wavered slightly; one possibility was that they could be closer in terms of physical distance, and the other was that they could be closer in terms of communication.

Centuries of living as a demonic and neurotic individual had made him completely taciturn. He didn't know what he could communicate with Bai Heng, and it seemed that getting closer to him would make him feel more at ease.

He couldn't make a decision.

"Yingxing, you are now a Star Core Hunter. Can you tell me what the ultimate goal of a Star Core Hunter is?" Bai Heng, who had been awakened at some point, walked to Ren's side and asked.

"In the future, we will eventually face the destruction of Nanuk, and in most futures, our fate will end at that moment. But if we follow Elio's script, there will eventually be a glimmer of hope. The Star Core Hunter is there to help Elio complete his script."

"I read from the script," Ren said. This was a line from the short script that Elio had given him when he decided to come to the Immortal Ship.

"Wow, so Yingxing, you're saving the world... no, the universe? That's so cool!" Bai Heng exclaimed, his bright eyes looking at Ren with a sense of adoration.

Ren unconsciously straightened his back, Dan Heng leaned against the door thoughtfully, and Jing Yuan frowned slightly. Was this really the purpose of the Star Core Hunter?
"So, Yingxing, you can't be locked up in the Dark Prison. What if the Star Core Hunters fail because of you? Wouldn't I become the sinner who destroyed the universe? So, even for my sake, you have to go back and work hard. I look forward to the day you save the universe," Bai Heng encouraged.

"Also, you have companions among the Star Core Hunters, right? Don't let them worry or be disappointed." Bai Heng placed his hand on Ren's shoulder.

Kafka, Silver Wolf, and Sam flashed through Blade's mind.

Jing Yuan also said, "If there really comes a day when Nanuk faces destruction, and the Star Core Hunter makes an outstanding contribution, your warrant can be revoked, and you can return to the Immortal Ship openly and legitimately."

Is he to be imprisoned for life, or is there hope that he will return to her side in the future?
Is there even a need to choose?
"I understand." Ren took one last reluctant look at Bai Heng before turning and leaving.

Blade took out his phone and contacted Silver Wolf: "Pick me up."

Silver Wolf raised an eyebrow. He's actually back?
[Give me back my 76 accounts: Are you kidding me?]
[Eriol: No.]
[Give me back my 76 accounts: Why did Ah Ren choose to come back?]
[Eriol: Of course, it's because his return would be a better ending for him.]
[Give me back my 76 accounts: ...]
The black cat licked its paws. Blade was only interested in dying and didn't care about anything else except stabbing Dan Heng. What did he know about the ultimate goal of the Star Core Hunter? If he wasn't specifically told, there was a high probability that he would really end up in the Dark Prison.

As dawn broke, Jing Yuan stretched.

"Back to work again, huh? It feels a bit strange," Jing Yuan sighed.

"To me, I just found out you became a general and you immediately skipped ten days of work. It's simply neglecting your duties. I've never seen a general like you," Bai Heng complained.

“You’ve seen it now.” Jing Yuan shrugged.

"Go quickly. Although the diviner is here to help you, he has probably accumulated quite a few problems over the past few days," Bai Heng urged.

"I should go too." Dan Heng walked to Jing Yuan's side. Taking care of the elderly living alone is not easy. Fortunately, he wasn't doing anything irresponsible.

"Danheng, thank you for these past few days. I've taken up so much of your time," Bai Heng said.

"It didn't delay anything. I also managed to teach Bai Lu what I needed to teach her. From now on, she will be a true Dragon Lord," Dan Heng said with a smile.

"Hey, here, take this." Jing Yuan nudged Dan Heng with his hand and handed him a piece of paper.

"What?" Dan Heng took it and saw that it was full of the names of Dragon Masters. His face immediately stiffened.

"I think that with Bai Lu's current strength and Bai Heng's help, she no longer needs my intervention." Dan Heng's lips twitched.

“Don’t bother two people with one thing. I’ve been annoyed with those guys for a long time. Besides, can you bear to see Xiao Bailu bleed? Moreover, if Xiao Bailu takes action, she might be ostracized by the other Chiming clans, which would be detrimental to her future leadership of the Chiming clan. You’re different; you just boarded the Starry Sky Train and left, and they can’t do anything about it,” Jing Yuan said.

"You're really not being polite." Dan Heng was speechless.

Jingyuan and Danheng went about their own business. Baiheng watched their figures disappear, then glanced at the deserted courtyard, and a tear involuntarily streamed down her face.

"Sister, are you crying?" Little White Dew asked, the big lock no longer on her tail.

"No, the wind was too strong and it got in my eyes." Bai Heng squatted down and patted Bai Lu's head.

There's no going back now.

They were just putting on an act for me, and they were even hiding many things from me.

She knew, and they knew they knew too.

They all have their own paths to walk and things they must do; things can never be the same as before.

However, it's good that everyone is still here.

Wishing everyone well and that all your wishes come true.

……

With Xing's help, the Chamber of Commerce in Jinren Lane has now become well-established, and its profits are steadily increasing, making it a thriving place.

Scott, watching the increasingly successful chamber of commerce, was burning with anxiety and impatience.

"What should I do? What should I do? I was already going to be punished by the company, and if I mess this up again, it will be even harder to recover. But I've tried everything, and that damned nameless guy has taken care of everything. What else can I do?"

A ray of sunlight silently entered Scott's body.

Do you want a promotion and a raise? Do you want to become the general manager? Do you want to reach the pinnacle of your life?

Scott suddenly heard this voice.

"I want to! I want to so badly!"

"So, to what extent are you willing to go for a promotion?"

"Of course, I'll stop at nothing! Even if it's my own father, I can report him without hesitation. Even if it's my own brother, I can frame him without hesitation. Even if it's the person I love most, if they get in my way, I can kick them aside without hesitation! I, Lone Wolf Scott, will climb to the top step by step, step by step, step by step! I want to be the P45!" Scott said with a ferocious expression.

"Good! Very good! I admire talent like yours. With my help, you will definitely become the general manager, the CEO, marry a beautiful and wealthy woman, and reach the pinnacle of life!" Suiyang tempted. It, the powerful and wealthy, loves nothing more than people's insatiable desire for power and status!
“I happen to have a problem right now, and you said you could help me with it, so what should I do?” Scott asked.

"First, go and water the money tree of the Golden Man Lane Chamber of Commerce," the powerful figure suggested.

"Okay! Huh? Wait, what did you say?" Scott thought he had misheard.

"Water their money trees."

“No, isn’t this a bit petty?” Scott questioned.

"What do you know? This is ruining their feng shui and fortune. Once their feng shui and fortune are ruined, nothing they do will go smoothly. They will soon encounter all sorts of problems, and their situation will take a sharp turn for the worse," the powerful figure explained.

"I see!" Scott exclaimed in sudden realization. "I'll send someone right away... No, this is such an important matter, I must do it myself!"

　There are two things I want to tell you, dear readers.

　　1. I've added a prologue, the New World Pioneering Agreement, to the public chapters. However, my skills are limited, and this is just a first draft. Those interested can comment and help improve it; I'll gradually update it. Although it's a prologue, it's after chapter 83. Tomorrow I'll ask the editor if the chapter order can be changed; I can't change it myself.

　　2. This book is planned to be renamed "The Star Train's Journey Through the Heavens," so readers won't get lost. The editor said the current title is a bit unclear; it's unclear what the purpose of taking the Star Train is, or if it refers to the heavens, which might exclude some readers. Therefore, a change is planned.

　　that's it
