Ironclad, but the dungeon is in Hell difficulty.

This power of abundance will penetrate the opponent's body, causing the parts of him modified by the bountiful people to lose control, thus weakening his resistance. At the same time, it will leave hidden dangers, leading to his complete death soon afterward.

Even if he cannot communicate with the abundant destiny in reality, it is easy for Yu Tianyi, as a star god, to do so.

It's perfectly normal for people who have been transformed by the Abundant People to bear the marks of Abundant Blessings, isn't it?

"It's a pity that the locust plague didn't settle accounts at the end of the world. Otherwise, even if I only inherited half of the imaginary share of the abundant destiny, I would have been able to do more precise operations."

Alternatively, they could send out their own Jianmu clone to abduct the creature without anyone noticing, subjecting it to endless torture before it dies in agony.

For now, this is all we can do to escort Jingliu away.

"Jingliu's condition has stabilized for now. I'll take her back to rest first, so please excuse me."

I sent a message to Xueyi, and she quickly replied with an "I understand" emoji.

Even though the Mirror Flow has returned to normal, the necessary procedures still need to be followed. He unleashed his Yi Sword Domain, enveloping her within it, and then carried her onto the Star Chariot, flying towards home.

After returning home, Jingliu felt more relaxed than ever before. He no longer needed to rely on mental techniques to maintain his emotional fluctuations. Even when he recalled those painful past events, his body did not react at all, just like an ordinary person.

Then, she and Yu Tianyi discussed their future plans, whether to tell others about the matter, and how to end things.

“Jing Yuan and Bai Heng are trustworthy people, but we can’t guarantee they won’t spread this news. As for Ying Xing and Dan Feng, they don’t have close ties with the Immortal Boat, but they are both the kind of people who can’t hide their thoughts, so they’ll probably be found out.”

Although Yu Tianyi had a good relationship with the other four members of Yun Wu, he still believed that none of them should know about such an important matter.

Otherwise, once the news leaks out, Jingliu might follow the same old path as the original storyline, be expelled from the Immortal Ship, betray Luofu, and become an unspeakable taboo.

This is no joke. Exile in the universe sounds romantic, but who would want to go on a wandering journey when they can live a good life? He and Jingliu are not masochists.

"We really shouldn't have told them, whether for our sake or theirs, it's better this way."

Jingliu nodded. Not telling them this was also a way to protect them. That way, even if the news was exposed, it would only be a matter between her and Yu Tianyi, which could minimize the possibility of Jingyuan and the others being involved.

Especially Jing Yuan, who is at a crucial juncture in the succession to the general position, and being associated with the 'abundant evil creature' is no small matter.

"On the way back, I had a rough idea, which may require some time to prepare."

As she spoke, Yu Tianyi laid out the outline of her plan and the mirror flow in detail. The more she listened, the more her face flushed, and she even became a little shy.

"Isn't this very similar to 'The Last Night on Luofu Mountain' from the Butterfly Dreamland?"

"I remember now. When we went to see it together, you seemed distracted. I didn't expect you to remember it so clearly."

That's true. I did draw inspiration from some of those ideas; after all, classics never go out of style.

It's tough. Why is it so hard to farm my godfather's artifacts? I still don't have a single piece that I can call a "graduated" item.

Chapter 177: Fake Death to Escape

"How could that be! Didn't they say there were still two years left?"

Upon learning the 'truth' from Yu Tianyi, Bai Heng's face flashed with undisguised astonishment. The news was so heavy that she felt a mix of emotions and didn't know what to say.

"Because of the previous turmoil, Jingliu inhaled a lot of 'Six Dusts Smoke,' a pheromone that can lure people into falling into the demonic body."

Although she has suppressed it now, she probably doesn't have much time left.

Yu Tianyi tried his best to put on a sad but restrained expression, and calmly told Bai Heng the words that he and Jing Liu had prepared long ago.

That's right, his plan was to fake Jingliu's death. However, in the Immortal Ship, where even death is orchestrated, it would be quite difficult to do so without getting through to the Ten Kings' Division.

Moreover, given Jingliu's reputation, it wouldn't be easy to deceive the Immortal Ship without a real person being taken away by the Ten Kings.

Fortunately, this was the simplest thing for Tianyi. As the master of the abundant destiny, he only needed to restore a clone based on Jingliu's body one-to-one to complete the task.

Moreover, he can be controlled remotely. However, in reality, he cannot perform skillful actions because he cannot invoke the power of abundance. Therefore, he certainly cannot hide this from the judge of the Ten Kings who came to pick him up in person.

"Bai Heng, you've arrived."

Jing Liu walked out of his room, and not only did he seem to be fine, but his complexion was even more stable than before. However, Bai Heng, who had already formed a preconceived notion, not only did not doubt it, but also thought that this was a last gasp before death, and believed the information given by Yu Tianyi even more.

"Why, why did this happen? How did you happen to be at the Pill Refining Division?"

Bai Heng stepped forward and hugged Jing Liu's shoulders, his voice choked with emotion.

Speaking of this, Yu Tianyi recalled the question that flashed through his mind when he first learned that Jingliu was in danger. However, due to her unstable condition, he temporarily put the question aside in order to save her.

When Bai Heng brought it up again, it reminded him of the matter once more.

"this."

Jing Liu felt a little embarrassed. She hadn't explained this to Yu Tianyi before because there were some unspeakable reasons behind it, but now that she had recovered, it wasn't something she couldn't reveal.

“I have scheduled regular check-ups with the physicians from the Dan Ding Si, but I didn’t want Tian Yi to worry, so I didn’t mention it before.”

"You should have included me in this kind of thing, this kind of thing."

Bai Heng was stunned for a moment before realizing why Jing Liu needed to conduct regular checkups. Even if a powerful person like her fell into demonic possession, she needed to prepare in advance, otherwise she might lose control in the outside world and cause great harm.

"You silly girl, don't say things like that."

Jingliu raised his hand and stroked Bai Heng's long, violet-like hair, smiling and appearing perfectly fine.

But the more this happened, the sadder Bai Heng felt. After exchanging a few hurried words, he left absentmindedly.

"Bai Heng is the one you're closest to, almost like a mother and daughter. I just didn't expect her reaction to be so strong. It looks like she won't be able to go to the battlefield anytime soon."

"What mother and daughter? It makes me look old."

Jingliu raised her eyes and gave Yu Tianyi a reproachful look. After fully recovering, her consciousness no longer needed to be frozen, so she could express herself more emotionally.

"Isn't that the truth? We're both over a thousand years old."

Yu Tianyi chuckled and pulled Jing Liu to his side. They were young at heart, and no matter how old they got, they couldn't be called 'old men,' so it was just a joke.

"Forget it, Bai Heng is easy to fool, but Jing Yuan and the others are not so easy to deal with, not to mention the most troublesome Ten Kings Division."

Jingliu skillfully found a comfortable position in Tianyi's arms and quietly leaned against him, expressing her worries.

"I'll create a clone of you then, and it won't be difficult to fool you. It's just that the Ten Kings' Division members who come to meet me might notice something amiss, but I'll handle that."

However, if you want to go out after that, you'll have to change your appearance; you can no longer appear as Kagami-ryu.

This is not a problem, since Yu Tianyi originally planned to let Jingliu live under a different identity after healed him, in order to avoid any cascading effects.

"At that time, I will belong only to you, Jingliu."

"Where did you learn such cheesy love talk? If you had said that when we first started living together, I probably would have been really embarrassed for a while."

Yu Tianyi tapped the other person's forehead and said with a smile.

"Besides, you've long belonged only to me, haven't you?"

After the two spent some time being affectionate, there was another knock on the door. It turned out that Jing Yuan and Dan Feng had come together, obviously having also heard the latest news and come to visit.

"..."

"You two, don't come in like silent gourds."

A few minutes later, seeing that Jingyuan and Danfeng were both sitting on the sofa without saying a word, it was Jingliu who broke the strange atmosphere.

“Especially you, Jingyuan, have you forgotten what I taught you back then?”

Her tone gradually became stern, clearly indicating that she did not want Jingyuan to be troubled by such matters.

"Yes, Master."

Jingyuan subconsciously tensed up and answered loudly, clearly because he had been scolded a lot by Jingliu in the past, and it had become an instinctive reaction.

“You don’t need to be so stern. Being born with a demonic body is the destiny of those who live forever. I told you before that if one day I were to fall into the demonic body, you must not show any mercy.”

However, given my current condition, I should be able to travel to the Ten Kings' Division on my own, so as to prevent any trouble from escaping from the Immortal Ship.

"But, Master..."

Jing Yuan opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. Just as his master said, the Demonic Yin Body was like the death of a short-lived species, an unavoidable phenomenon. Even if there were ways to delay the arrival of this state, it would only be a matter of prolonging life.

He knew his master; she would never do such a thing.

"Birth, aging, sickness, and death are the natural order of things. Even those who are immortal cannot avoid them. Just like the transformation of the Vidyadhara, even if my clan possesses the wondrous method of dragon transformation and can inherit the memories of my previous life, my next life will be an independent personality, no longer me."

Danfeng seemed to take it all in stride, as if he had only been dragged there by Jingyuan. Instead, he began to comfort him.

However, Yu Tianyi gave him a slightly strange look. He probably couldn't have imagined that Bai Heng's death would make him do such a crazy thing.

"Alright, Jingyuan, you're about to become a general, so it's not good to be so impulsive. Since you're here, I'll tell you about the itinerary that Jingliu and I discussed, and see how we can arrange it."

He stepped forward, patted Jing Yuan on the shoulder, and began to divert his attention.

The character art for Sand Gold looks quite different from the ones I've seen before.

Chapter 178 Before the Wedding

"!"

"What, is it that the fact that Jingliu and I are getting married is so surprising? Why do you all look like you've seen a ghost?"

"No, no, how could it be?"

Seeing Jingyuan and Danfeng's eyes widen at what he had said, Yu Tianyi gave them both a light tap on the head.

They waved their hands repeatedly, indicating that they absolutely had no strange ideas.

"After all, Jingliu has been busy for so many years, and it was not easy for her to put aside her knots and marry me. Naturally, we should give her a wedding to make this marriage complete."

At this point, Yu Tianyi sighed. He was sincere in his words. After this incident, although Jingliu was still around, it would be very difficult for him to appear in his current identity.

Therefore, it would be better to hold a grand wedding to give Luo Fu Sword Master Jing Liu's identity a dignified end, rather than becoming a sinner and escaping the Immortal Ship as in the pre-transmigration storyline.

“I understand. Leave this to me. Organizing the wedding for Master is the last thing I, as his disciple, can do for him.”

Infected by Yu Tianyi and Jing Liu's emotions, Jing Yuan also recovered from his previous sadness and took on the matter with a faint smile.

"You have a heart."
