My Ironclad System is ahead of schedule.

Oh, back then there was also a strange tree with a thousand faces. Later I learned that the strange tree was the Abundance Envoy, Shuhu. General Teng Xiao was fighting it and had no strength left to stop the [World Devouring Rahu].

It was under these circumstances that the Cangcheng Immortal Ship was devoured by the [Devouring Rahu].

Xueyi tried to keep her tone calm, but both Ji Yuan and Huo Huo could hear the cruelty and despair within it.

The Celestial Ship of All Beings was devoured by the [Devouring Rahu] under these circumstances.

After Xueyi finished speaking, she reminded Ji Yuan and Huo Huo, "If we don't prepare for the consequences, what happened on the Cangcheng Immortal Ship will definitely be repeated on the Luofu Immortal Ship."

After hearing Xueyi's words, Huo Huo was so nervous that she couldn't speak. Her whole body was trembling, and her eyes were tightly closed.

The scene Xueyi described was truly terrifying, especially for Huo Huo, a young girl in her forties who had just legalized her marriage. Just thinking about it made Huo Huo close her eyes in fear.

"Huo Huo..."

The tail was about to open its mouth to show concern for Huo Huo.

At this moment, however, Huo Huo opened her eyes and, though trembling with fear, said firmly, "Teacher, I'm afraid this will happen, so we must completely destroy that living planet."

Tail seemed unsure what to say.

Ji Yuan couldn't help but smile.

Huo Huo had fought alongside him for so long, and although her timidity hadn't changed, she was quick to act.

There might be some flaws in my mind, but this time the enemy I'm facing isn't Suiyang either. As long as I act quickly, I'll be fine.

Ji Yuan patted Huo Huo's head and said to her, "Don't worry, with your teacher here, I'll definitely beat it to death."

"Ah."

Huo Huo gripped her little flag tightly.

"I also want to help the teacher."

Xueyi watched from the side, a look of satisfaction in her eyes.

“We’ve finished our discussion here, so I’ll head back now. Huo Huo, you stay with your teacher. I’m going back to my coffin. During this time, I’ve arrested quite a few prisoners from the Ten Kings’ Division, so my body can store enough power to support the battle here.”

"Yes, but once you're on the battlefield, you must follow orders."

"Don't worry, I will."

After saying this, Xueyi slipped downstairs, worried that if she stayed there too long, she wouldn't have enough energy stored in her body.

After Xueyi left, Ji Yuan paid the bill and then walked home with Huo Huo.

The system's achievement settlement also appeared in my mind.

[You have fulfilled the request of Xueyi, the legendary judge of the Ten Kings Division of the Luofu Immortal Ship. As a special reward, the system has bestowed upon you a Demon-Slaying Cone, the latest product manufactured by the Crafting Division.]

Ji Yuan felt a new weapon appear in his mind.

They hadn't walked far in the direction of home when another figure blocked Ji Yuan and Huo Huo's path.

Thinking it was an enemy, Ji Yuangang instinctively assumed the stance of the [Inch Force - Heaven Opening] technique.

But before he could throw a punch, he saw who it was.

It was a crow.

Ji Yuan withdrew his fist and asked Han Ya, "Miss Han Ya, how did you get here?"

"Is my sister planning to go to war with you? If so, I hope you can do me a favor."

"What kind of help? Do you want me to transfer Xueyi to the rear?"

Ji Yuan asked Han Ya.

The Jackdaw shook his head.

"No, even if you send my sister to the rear, she will definitely fight on the front lines."

Han Ya said to Ji Yuan, "So, I wanted to ask Ji Yuan if you could let me go to the front lines to fight with you? By the way, don't let me get too close to my sister, and don't let her find out."

"Okay, I promise you."

Faced with such a heartfelt request from a sister, Ji Yuan certainly wouldn't refuse.

Upon hearing Ji Yuan's agreement, Han Ya revealed a happy expression.

Hmm, this is yet another request from a legendary judge.

Ji Yuan thought to himself.

Chapter 220 Huo Huo Seeks Huan Long to Improve Her Strength [Second Update]

[You have fulfilled the request of the legendary judge of the Ten Kings, Cold Crow. The system rewards you with a brand new model of the Underworld Prophecy Brush.]

Another weapon appeared in Ji Yuan's system space.

These two weapons weren't particularly useful to Ji Yuan, but the latest models from a century later would be very useful to Xueyi and Hanya. Ji Yuan thought that once they were on the battlefield, he could help them gain military merit and achieve new accomplishments.

Thinking of this, Ji Yuan felt extremely happy.

He hummed a little tune as he led Huo Huo toward home.

As he walked, he noticed that although Huo Huo tried to keep her face calm, her hands were trembling slightly. Her eyes were fixed on him, as if afraid he would leave her sight.

"Huo Huo, are you still afraid of those prosperous people?"

“Yes, teacher.” Huo Huo nodded, then seemed to realize that this was not a good way to put it, and quickly added to Ji Yuan, “But don’t worry, teacher, even if I’m scared, I won’t hold back when facing the enemy.”

As she said this, she clenched her fists, trying to encourage herself.

"I believe you can do it, Huo Huo."

"Yes, yes, I will definitely be like my teacher, no matter what kind of strong enemy I face, I will not have any fear."

Huo Huo nodded earnestly.

However, upon hearing Huo Huo say this, Ji Yuan gently shook his head.

He reached out and touched Huo Huo's head, saying, "Huo Huo, actually, I've always been afraid. Don't be fooled by my risky behavior; deep down, I'm most afraid of dying."

"Teacher, were you afraid the whole time?"

Ji Yuan nodded: "Yes, but I always end up pushing myself to the brink. I can't go on without killing the enemy, so I can only turn that fear into motivation. I haven't told anyone about this. I don't want to see my fear spread to others. But Huo Huo, I believe you can turn that fear into motivation to turn the tide in desperate situations."

"Well, I see."

Huo Huo nodded vigorously.

She looked at Ji Yuan, as if she had made up her mind, and reached out her small hand to tightly grasp Ji Yuan's palm.

"Teacher, can you hold my hand and we go home together?"

She mustered her courage and said.

Ji Yuan was somewhat taken aback by these words, but still smiled and nodded in agreement.

Seeing that her teacher had agreed, Huo Huo's face lit up with a happy expression.

Using fear to muster courage can actually be very effective.

Huo Huo thought to herself.

A reassuring feeling came from the teacher's palm. Huo Huo could feel that the teacher's hand was not steady, but it had a kind of fighting spirit.

The teacher was also afraid, but he was able to turn that fear into motivation. As his top disciple, I can do the same.

Huo Huo made a vow in her heart.

The two walked hand in hand toward their home.

The courtyard inside the house was bustling with activity. Ji Yuan and Huo Huo could hear the noise even before they stepped inside.

Ji Yuan looked at Huo Huo with a questioning gaze.

Huo Huo said somewhat embarrassedly, "Well, Sister Su Chang and Sister Ting Yun discussed it and plan to hold a banquet at home to celebrate everyone's return from Yalilo VI. And Sister Ting Yun, after experiencing so many things, arrived home safely."

"I see. Let's go and relax tonight."

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan's face lit up.

He led Huo Huo by the hand and walked towards home.

The courtyard was brightly lit, and when Ji Yuan pushed open the door, he saw that everyone was having an outdoor barbecue.

Ji Yuan looked to the left and right and found that their courtyard was now twice the size.

"This is……"

As Ji Yuan was pondering, Topa approached, carrying two glasses of wine. Seeing Ji Yuan, she offered him a glass and explained, "Boss, didn't you say the rooms were too small and there wasn't enough space? So this afternoon, after discussing it with Miss Tingyun and Miss Sushang, I ordered all the company members on Luofu Immortal Ship to buy the two surrounding houses and also to combine the three houses together and begin renovations."

"Oh, I see. Well, thank you so much, Toppa. By the way, I haven't had my coming-of-age ceremony yet, so I can't drink alcohol for now."

"Don't worry, boss, it's just an alcoholic beverage, there's no problem."

Hearing Toppa's words, Ji Yuan finally felt relieved and drank it down.

Hmm, it has a slight alcohol taste, but it's definitely alcohol-free, and it tastes pretty good.

Ji Yuan thought to himself.

Just as I was about to say something, I heard a boy's complaining voice.

"Sister Tingyun, do I have to do all of this?"

It is Yanqing.

“Yes, I’m going to have a barbecue. And Yanqing, aren’t you a swordsman? You have the best eyesight among us, I’m sure you can put all of these on properly. You know how Su Chang looked when she put on the meat earlier.”

"Well, I see."

Hearing Tingyun's words, Yanqing started skewering meat with great enthusiasm.

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan went over. Seeing Yan Qing diligently skewering meat, he immediately went to help.

Tingyun and Ruan Mei were standing in front of the barbecue grill, grilling meat.

Ji Yuan greeted them and then sat down next to Yan Qing, who was eating skewers.

Seeing Ji Yuan arrive, Yan Qing quickly said, "Brother, you should rest. You haven't rested yet. You should relax tonight."

“It’s alright, doing these things is also a way to relax,” Ji Yuan said to Yan Qing while skewering meat.
