However, Qiong had many questions, such as why he suddenly dragged everyone into the crisis in Luofu, even though he was having quite a bit of fun.

Kafka also revealed the Star Core Hunter's purpose, making Qiong understand the Star Core Hunter's true objective.

"So this was your real purpose..."

Qiong seemed to be deep in thought. Although she hadn't been wary of the Star Core Hunter from the beginning, she couldn't help but feel a little touched when she thought that the Star Core Hunter was actually paving the way for the two of them.

“Although Elio’s script is generally on the right track, I have discovered many differences. Perhaps... this is proof that you have free will.”

"Free will?"

Qiong was puzzled when she heard this word.

"Just like Eriol's maxim, we are all slaves to fate, thinking we are on the path to freedom, but in fact the future is already predetermined. Eriol's prophecies have never been wrong, but since you came into being, things have started to change, which is something we are happy to see."

Kafka had a smile on her face, and Stephen Chow could tell that it was genuine happiness and relief.

"And this change, in my view, is moving in a better direction. Although it means that we may not be able to control that uncertain future, Elio... no, the Star Core Hunters are willing to bet everything on the uncertain future you have created."

"Now that you mention it, I suddenly feel a lot of pressure..."

Upon hearing this, Qiong couldn't help but scratch the back of his head.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, because you are not fighting alone."

Kafka said, glancing at the others behind her.

Qiong also glanced back at everyone, then couldn't help but smile.

"What pressure do you have? If anyone has pressure, it's me."

Stephen Chow smiled slightly and said with his hands on his hips.

"Hmph, why are you making it sound like I can't help!"

Qiong grumbled in dissatisfaction.

"In the future, there will definitely be many people standing behind you and fighting alongside you. Just do what you choose to do, and I believe in you."

"Yeah, we will."

Qiong nodded heavily.

"It's been a very pleasant chat, but I should go now. Some people are getting impatient waiting for me."

With a gentle struggle, Kafka freed her hands from their restraints.

A figure appeared behind Kafka like a ghost.

"Well then, see you next time."

Kafka waved to the two of them and then turned to look at Blade.

However, this glance left Kafka somewhat stunned.

"Ren...why is your face swollen? And your eyes are dark?"

"Let's not talk about this anymore, Kaffa, it's time to go."

Ren, who already had a sullen face, looked even darker upon hearing this.

Without saying another word, he walked straight to the railing and jumped down.

Kafka turned around and saw Stephen Chow's ambiguous smile.

"Heh...it seems the script has been changed again. I'm quite curious to see how far it will go."

Kafka chuckled, understanding what was going on. Without thinking further, she turned and gave the two of them one last look before collapsing into the void.

The two men's actions took only a few seconds, and by the time the Yunqi Army reacted, it was too late.

March 7th then rushed up.

"Wow! Kafka just ran away like that? Will Fu Taibu blame us?"

"Uncle Yang, say something! Didn't you also want to ask a question?"

March 7th sighed and shouted at Walter.

"Don't worry, March. Fu Taibu has her own plans. She could have predicted Kafka's escape."

Walter shook his head slightly and said to March 7.

"I see..."

Upon hearing this, March 7 scratched his head, looked at the others, and seemed to be the only one who had seen Kafka escape, so he paced around anxiously.

Kind of embarrassing.

"Uncle Yang, what should we do next?"

Bronya, who had been standing idly by, saw that Jing Yuan seemed to have completed the task he had assigned and asked Welt.

"Now that we have fulfilled the general's request, there should be nothing more to do for the time being."

Bronya nodded, thinking that she finally had some free time and could go shopping with LaX.

As they were talking, a golden light suddenly shone in the distance, and the giant tree, which had been like a withered tree, suddenly came back to life and began to grow wildly.

"That is..."

Walter looked at Jianmu, his brows furrowing slightly.

Although this scene looked incredibly sacred, I knew exactly what the Jianmu tree of the Immortal Ship was, and its sudden revival was certainly not a good thing.

"Oh? It's grown, but it's a bit slow."

Zhou Xingxing looked into the distance, thinking that it was probably because Xingcha crashed and then Jingliu beat up Danheng and Ren that they were delayed.

"Wow, this tree is so golden, it's really majestic, it has an epic feel to it."

On March 7th, looking at the Jianmu tree in the distance, he sighed.

"How about we get closer and take a picture? A picture taken under a tree like this will definitely attract a lot of attention!"

As he spoke, March 7th took out his camera.

"You like getting close, huh? Then you can be at the very front later."

Stephen Chow chuckled.

"Charge to the front?"

March 7th was taken aback, feeling that something about those words was amiss.

Just then, I saw Tingyun walking over.

"Oh, Miss Tingyun, we meet again."

Qiong greeted Tingyun.

"Greetings, my benefactors! I've been sent to assist you all once again. It seems I'm destined to be a busybody, just like you all."

With a somewhat helpless smile, Tingyun addressed the crowd.

"Assistance? What assistance? Haven't we finished everything?"

Qiong asked upon hearing this, as she was just about to go out and play.

"The previous business is done, but look, a new job has come up. We were summoned here by a message from Fu Taibu, and we don't know much else. You all will find out when you come with me to the Taibu Office."

Hearing Tingyun say this, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment and then followed him.

Along the way, Tingyun kept glancing sideways at the Jianmu tree in the distance.

"This extraordinary sight of the Jianmu tree reviving is something that even immortal beings have only seen a few times in their entire lives. It's truly magnificent."

Upon seeing Tingyun sigh, Qiong couldn't help but recall Kafka's words from before.

"Isn't the revival of the Jianmu tree a good thing for the Immortal Ship? Miss Tingyun, why do you look so excited?"

"It's not exactly a good thing, but to be fair, these troublesome matters are none of my concern. At least the way the Jianmu tree is reviving is truly amazing."

Tingyun chuckled, looked away, and continued leading the way.

"Such unusual energy... it's a star core. This is probably why the general is looking for us."

Walter looked at Jianmu and said.

"Uncle Yang, are you saying... the general is finally going to ask us for help dealing with the star core?"

March 7th asked with uncertainty.

"Seriously? Are we some kind of task masters? We finish one task and another comes along."

Upon hearing this, Qiong muttered to herself.

Bronya thought that the shopping trip was off again, but she felt that she could finally do something productive.

Upon arriving at the Taibu Si office, Fu Xuan, Jing Yuan, and Dan Heng were all present.

"The immortal ship was protected by the Emperor's Bow and the God of Fate. If it weren't for the intervention of another Star God's messenger, how could it have infiltrated Luofu without my knowledge?"

"Does the general have any clue about the identity of this infiltrated messenger?"

Fu Xuan nodded slightly. He had long suspected that the mastermind behind this was not simple, but he did not expect that it would be a Star God Envoy.

"Then we'll have to wait for the envoy to show himself."

Upon hearing this, Fu Xuan realized that Jing Yuan also did not know the identity of the messenger.

"In that case...wouldn't we be put in a passive position?"

Fu Xuan frowned slightly, looking somewhat troubled.

"Hehe, Fu Qing, don't be impatient. Although we don't know the identity of that envoy, we have an unexpected surprise."

Jing Yuan smiled slightly, then looked at Dan Heng beside him.

"This person is... a member of the Vidyadhara clan?"

Fu Xuan felt that the person in front of him was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for the moment.

"Yes and no. To be precise, this is the current Vidyad Dragon Lord, Lord Yinyue, of the Vidyad clan."

"Lord Yinyue!"

Upon hearing this name, Fu Xuan's eyes widened involuntarily.
