My Ironclad System is ahead of schedule.

She asked hesitantly.

The Immortal Star Dragon, that one has long since perished.

Ji Yuan waved his hand: "Of course not. I only stole a little bit of the destiny power from that Immortal Envoy."

"That's quite shocking. It's the first time I've ever heard of someone being able to steal the abilities of a Commander."

"This is just a little trick of mine. Teacher, please don't look at me, I'm doing this for your own good. If you knew my method, you'd probably be constantly going to fight the Envoy. It's normal for a black-haired person to send off an white-haired one, but I don't want it to be that early. You should wait until I have the strength to deal with the Envoy before you talk about it."

Ji Yuan had only spoken halfway when he saw the bright, expectant look in his teacher Jingliu's eyes, and quickly rejected her idea of ​​rapidly increasing her strength by fighting the Commander.

Try not to do anything reckless.

Even if I'm going to court death, I should at least wait until I have the power to fight the Commander.

At least we can lend a hand.

"Ok."

Jingliu muttered something to himself, his expression somewhat dissatisfied.

Ruan Mei quickly pushed her aside; she had long harbored resentment towards this 'enemy' who was delaying her and her students' research and experimentation time.

"Come on, let's start our research as soon as possible."

Ji Yuan and Ruan Mei began to study the power of immortal destiny together.

Through that immortal power, the two of them studied the structure of the immortal destiny together.

……

The next day, Ji Yuan headed from the laboratory toward Kripper Castle early in the morning.

He told the others he was going to sleep and rest, but he secretly ran away and still had to go back as soon as possible, pretending to be resting so as not to worry others.

Walking through the dark city, although the cold had no effect on him, he could clearly feel the temperature dropping. This had a significant impact on the residents of Belleburg, even those with heating systems.

If this isn't resolved soon, the people will freeze to death.

With that thought in mind, Ji Yuan quietly entered Kripper Castle and returned to his room.

As soon as Ji Yuan entered the room, he immediately sensed several auras emanating from it.

Could it be an enemy trying to assassinate me?

Ji Yuan thought to himself.

But the next second, the light that came on made him change his mind.

Inside the room were Liu Ying, Su Chang, Ting Yun, Huo Huo, Xing, Ji Zi, San Yue Qi, Bronya, Cocolia, Uncle Yang, and Dan Heng.

Wait, Bronya and Cocolia, what are you two doing here?

And what are you guys from the train crew doing here?

When Bronya saw Ji Yuan looking at her, she lowered her head shyly.

She couldn't help but think of the first kiss she had given away yesterday.

"What's going on here? What are they doing in my room?"

Ji Yuan asked with a smile.

"Of course, it's because someone is working long hours, which is making me quite worried~"

Tingyun blinked her fox-like eyes, walked to Ji Yuan's side, and said with a smile.

Su Chang echoed, "Yes, other doctors have told me that this kind of long working hours is extremely harmful to the body."

Su Chang was the decisive one. She walked over, grabbed Ji Yuan's arm, and pressed him onto the bed. After holding him down, she said to the others, "At this time, we can't give my brother a chance to speak. Once he opens his mouth, we really can't argue with him. What we need to do now is to subdue him no matter what."

After saying this, she covered her brother's mouth with her hand.

Ji Yuan looked at everyone with his eyes.

What are you guys trying to get me to do?

Seeing his expression, Su Chang immediately understood what her older brother was thinking. She quickly covered him with a blanket and said, "What we need to do is let you get a good night's sleep. Now, go to sleep."

Su Chang stood with her hands on her hips, looking quite smug.

After all these years, how easy is it for her to gain the upper hand over her brother?

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Ji Yuan quickly pulled his mouth away from Su Chang's hand. As soon as he was free, he said, "I said, how can I go to sleep with all of you looking at me like this? I can't sleep with everyone staring at me like this."

"Hmm..." Upon hearing this, Su Chang immediately realized that her older brother was right.

She's easily fooled, but others aren't.

"It's alright, I can help you."

Xing picked up a baseball bat and said to Ji Yuan with a 'kind' expression.

Upon seeing this, Ji Yuan quickly raised his hand.

"Alright, alright, I'm going to sleep now. Perfect timing, I really need to recharge my energy to prepare for the next step."

"Next step? What are you going to do?"

Xing asked curiously.

"Of course, I've found a way to fight. Now, I'm going to sleep. You all should prepare to fight behind me. Especially you, Star You, I still need the Star Core in your body as my energy source."

Ji Yuan said to Xing.

"Energy supply? That's good. But you'll have to tell me how to do it?"

Xing was still puzzled when she heard Ji Yuan's words, wondering what Ji Yuan was planning to do.

However, at this moment, Ji Yuan simply closed his eyes as if he were sleeping.

Hey! This guy, he just fell asleep the moment his head hit the pillow!

Seeing Ji Yuan's behavior, Xing raised her eyebrows, about to get angry.

But as soon as she made the move, Su Chang and Ting Yun each put one arm around her, Liu Ying hugged her waist, and Huo Huo tugged at her clothes from behind.

The stars were thus separated.

Himeko pointed to the door, and the group quietly went outside.

Once outside, Xing asked the group, "So, are we really going to fight again?"

"Yes."

Tingyun nodded.

Will we win?

"Cocolia said with a worried expression."

Su Chang comforted him, saying, "My brother would never have said he wanted to fight if he wasn't absolutely certain. Besides, I reckon he's planning to put more than half the pressure of the battle on himself this time."

"Half the pressure is on him? How did he manage that?"

Hearing Su Chang's words, Xing asked in confusion.

"I don't know about that. Anyway, my brother always has his ways. If I could think of the things he thinks of, I could join the genius club too."

Su Chang spread her hands and said.

"Ok."

Himeko offered words of comfort: "But this is for the best. The situation in Belloborg really can't be delayed any longer. The sooner it's resolved, the safer the people of this planet will be."

Yes, that's exactly it.

Su Chang nodded.

"Since my brother is resting, let's go rest too. I don't want to hold him back."

Others also nodded.

Then prepare to rest in preparation for the next battle.

……

Ji Yuan did not sleep.

He entered Nguyen Mai's study space.

As soon as he entered the laboratory, he smelled a strong fragrance.

Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the virtual Ruan Mei was cooking meat soup in front of the experimental table, and the rich and delicious aroma made him unable to resist the urge to eat.

The virtual Ruan Mei is wearing an apron, her black hair is all tied back, revealing her snow-white nape, giving her the image of a very beautiful and virtuous young woman.

Seeing Ji Yuan looking at her, the virtual Ruan Mei lifted the soup pot in her hand: "Here, have a taste. I'm cleaning up the failed experiments."

Ji Yuan: "..."

Wow, teacher, your solution is really environmentally friendly.

It does smell quite good, though.

Ji Yuan walked over and served himself and the virtual Ruan Mei a bowl of soup each.

“It tastes very good.”

After finishing the meat soup, Ji Yuan's eyes lit up and he said.

"Yes, this is a broth I specially created, made from animal meat. It's very good for restoring the spirit, but your body can't enter it, so it can only repair your mental fatigue."

Upon hearing Ji Yuan praise the soup she had cooked, the virtual Ruan Mei smiled and nodded.

"Thank you, teacher. I feel really good right now. But how did you know I would come here?"

“I didn’t know that, so I’ve been cooking soup here the whole time. Now that you’ve come to this virtual space, I can prepare soup for you anytime.”

Virtual Ruan Mei said with a smile.

Hearing her say that, Ji Yuan paused for a moment, then tilted his head back and poured all the broth in his hand into his mouth. After finishing it, Ji Yuan ladled out another bowl of soup and drank it carefully.

The virtual Ruan Mei rested her chin on her hands, watching Ji Yuan's actions with a smile.
