"Hmm, this seems to refer to the inseparable Immortal Ship Alliance, right? This thing was also passed down from the Radiant Azure Immortal Ship."
"To be honest, the level of the Yaoqing Immortal Ship has improved incredibly fast since a hundred years ago. Sometimes we're quite envious of it."
Driving the Star Chariot, Tingyun smiled thoughtfully, his forced smile clearly indicating his mind wasn't on the matter.
Speaking of which, who was responsible for so many things a hundred years ago on the Azure Immortal Ship? I have absolutely no clue; the secrecy was kept so well.
For the Immortal Boat Alliance, this person must be an important figure whose status is no less than that of a general.
Dust Calamity sat silently, leaning against the wall inside the Starship, seemingly lost in thought. Walter noticed Dust Calamity's unusual behavior.
A familiar expression, a pang of nostalgia upon seeing an object? Rumor has it that the Azure Immortal Ship is elusive; how could ordinary merchant caravans or tour groups possibly find it?
Therefore, it seems that Chen Jie did more than just visit Yao Qing; something else must have happened there.
If Chen Jie weren't only "twenty-two years old," Walter might have even suspected that the person who upgraded the Yaoqing Immortal Ship was Chen Jie.
"My esteemed benefactors, we have arrived at the Starship Sea Central Hub, the Heavenly Ship Bureau."
"Then, please allow me, on behalf of the Tianbo Company, to welcome all my benefactors to the 'Star Chariot Sea'."
"On the 'Luofu' Immortal Ship, the airspace, navigation, and trade are all managed by the Tianbo Division, which ranks among the Six Departments. The Star Chariot Sea is also under our jurisdiction."
"We were supposed to take you on a tour, but given the current circumstances, we'll first go to Sichen Palace to inform Lord Yukong of our purpose."
Walter nodded understandingly: "That's certainly how it should be given the current situation. I'll trouble Miss Tingyun to lead the way."
"Oh? Sichen Palace?" Whenever March 7th heard something unfamiliar, she would immediately express her doubt and ask questions.
The passengers on the train were quite used to this.
Tingyun paused for a moment, then put on that professional fake smile again.
"Look, do you see that? That largest building is the Sichen Palace, which is the headquarters of the Tianbo Bureau. That's where we're going."
Xing frowned. For some reason, she felt there was something strange about this fox-person named Tingyun, but she couldn't make up her mind. Making a fuss would only cause unnecessary unpleasantness.
So, she quietly walked to Chen Jie's side, confirming that Ting Yun was leading the way.
"Dust Calamity, don't you notice anything different about Tingyun?"
Dust Tribulation: "?"
Turning his head to look at Xing's serious expression, Chen Jie's face showed a hint of helplessness.
It's commendable to notice something amiss, but whispering about whether the person acting strangely is normal in front of you is also a problem.
This requires criticism.
"Should not be."
Without any hesitation, Chen Jie shook his head in rejection, because Ting Yun could hear everything they said clearly, and even Walter could hear it clearly.
If you then claim that Tingyun has a problem, and Tingyun insists on its innocence, it will immediately attract the surrounding Cloud Cavalry. Then there's no need to deal with the Star Core; they can directly start a war with Luofu.
Ahead, Ting Yun still wore a professional fake smile, but in his mind he was calculating what he had just heard.
Hmm? That Star Core brat is starting to suspect me? Is it because of the Star Core?
Hehe, but it's alright. That guy named Chen Jie saved me a lot of trouble. I was just overestimating him before.
Seeing Chen Jie shake his head in denial, Xing's expression became puzzled. Could it be that I really felt wrong?
Since the tribulation couldn't possibly be wrong, the only one who could be wrong is myself. It seems I still need to hone my skills. Luckily, I asked the tribulation beforehand, otherwise, I would have really made a fool of myself.
However, something unexpected happened: Walter slowed down and moved closer to him.
"Dust Calamity, this fox-woman lady's pace is too fast; I'm finding it a bit difficult to keep up. Can you handle this audience?"
Dust Tribulation: "?"
Is this what Himeko meant by "eagerly anticipating and waiting for this moment"? What a wonderful "eagerly anticipating" she is!
Walter, oh Walter, where's your crumbling aura? Did you age after traveling here? If you're going to play like this, then I'll have to bring your "old friend" to your face and have a go at it.
"If Mr. Walter is somewhat unable to handle it, please rest assured and leave it to me; I will be perfectly fine."
Walter nodded with a sense of satisfaction: "Then I'll leave it to you."
Soon, the group arrived at the foot of the steps of Sichen Palace, where Tingyun, who had been leading the way, stopped.
"We've arrived. Please wait here for a moment, my esteemed benefactors. I'll go in and report the situation first."
Suddenly, Chen Jie stepped forward as if he were returning home, adjusting his glasses: "It's alright, I'll wait here for a moment."
Tingyun paused for a moment before turning to leave, but Xing's phone rang shortly after he disappeared from sight.
Chen Jie knew that Ting Yun was behind this; she had asked for Xing's contact information when she boarded the Star Chariot.
Huanlong, Huanlong, you can't hold back anymore?
Then I'll have to invite you to my Demon-Sealing Scroll for a chat.
My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!
"Uncle Yang, we're going to be meeting a big shot later, right? What if we say something wrong? Should Xing and I just stay silent?"
Finally realizing what was happening, March 7th came over.
"I'll be there in a bit, just don't reply."
March 7th blinked and gave Chen Jie a thumbs up: "Then it's up to you, Chen Jie!"
Not long after Xing put down her phone, Tingyun returned.
"I have already reported your situation to the Sky-Driving Commander. I have other matters to attend to and will take my leave now."
"Goodbye, Miss Tingyun."
Still unaware of what was going on, March 7th was waving goodbye to Tingyun. Only after she finished did the group continue on their way.
Sichen Palace
"Report the damage figures to General Jingyuan, and then summon the people from the Imperial Stud. How can they stand idly by in such a huge mess?"
The terminal in front of Yu Kong responded: "Yes, sir."
Only after the terminal communication was shut down did Yu Kong turn around and look at the train crew waiting to the side.
"Hello, passengers of the Starry Sky Train"
“Tingyun has already informed me of your purpose. Although my job is not to receive travelers, since you know about the Star Core and have stated that you want to help ‘Luofu’…”
"Regardless, I should meet with you all and then decline your invitations."
"Thank you, I'll decline?"
March 7th and Xing stared wide-eyed at Yu Kong in disbelief, and even Welt was taken aback.
Only Chen Jie stood there expressionless: "I believe the Immortal Ship is very familiar with the 'Star Core,' and I also believe in the Sky-Riding Commander's confidence in his home."
At this point, Chen Jie's brows furrowed involuntarily: "But the appearance of a 'Star Core' on the Immortal Ship, doesn't the Steward think it's absurd? And who is behind all of this?"
"Does the captain perhaps already know all of this?"
Chapter 74 Jing Yuan: He looks somewhat familiar.
In that instant, Yu Kong's face darkened; Chen Jie's words carried a hint of doubt.
This also set off alarm bells for Walter and the others.
"The Immortal Ship has soared for eight thousand years, and the crises and survival challenges of the past have been far more numerous than you can imagine. Although we are very grateful for your idea of helping, the Immortal Ship has sufficient reserves to cope with this disaster."
The subtext is that the immortals have experienced far more than you have, and it's none of your business, you outsiders, meddling in other people's affairs.
At this moment, Chen Jie frowned, Walter remained silent, and Xing and March 7th couldn't understand the subtext.
"This guy sounds fierce, Xing, don't you think so?"
Hoshino Mikoto's face darkened; he dared not speak, only nodding in agreement.
As the head of a department, Yu Kong heard March 7's words clearly, but she still possessed a considerable amount of magnanimity.
"You are all guests who have come from afar, and there is no reason for you to get involved in this matter. Do you understand what I mean?"
Walter raised an eyebrow. Was he trying to kick us out?
This time, even March 7th and Star understood what Yu Kong meant, and their gazes involuntarily turned to Chen Jie.
Why is there such a big difference between the attitudes of the people of "Luofu" and Yaoqing?
Yao Qing was eager for someone to help them fight off the abundant monsters and solve their problems. Although the six immortal ships each had their own unique characteristics, they shouldn't be as tough as "Luofu," right?
Jing Yuan's strength is also at the bottom among the Seven Heavenly Generals.
This guy Yu Kong didn't think about the worst-case scenario at all. No wonder Jing Yuan kept saying he was tired. How could he not be tired?
This made Chen Jie feel a little uncomfortable for a moment, but it wasn't impossible for him to continue. "When did helping others ever need a reason? Doesn't it mean that there are good deeds in the world that don't ask for anything in return?"
"But as far as I know, isn't the most representative of this spirit the [Guardian] Star God Amber King?"
Yu Kong was stunned. She never expected Chen Jie to answer like that, and indeed, she didn't know how to reply for a moment.
However, after a short while, Yu Kong's expression turned grim, her brows furrowing deeply. She truly couldn't think of any words to refute her.
Because the actions of the God of Heaven's Restoration were indeed as this calamity described: selflessly building walls for the universe, even bestowing his own power so that civilizations within the universe could continue.
"I've made it very clear that this is an internal matter of the Immortal Boat Alliance, and I don't need you to interfere. As a sign of respect, I've specifically met with you all to convey the final decision, which is non-negotiable."
Dust Tribulation was somewhat surprised. "Can't you just start repeating yourself?"
However, just a few seconds after Chen Jie began to ponder, San Yueqi looked at Yu Kong as if she had seen a ghost, and unable to hold back any longer, she stepped forward.
"Oh dear, Dust Calamity, why don't we just call it quits?"
"Since they've already said that, why bother with all that effort? Chen Jie, Uncle Yang, let's just go."
This time, I felt a bit helpless and angry on March 7th. I came all this way to help, but they refused. That's frustrating.
The fact that the other person refused without hesitation made her feel that her efforts to help were not worthwhile, and she became angry.
Instantly, Yu Kong's eyes narrowed, and his tone even carried a hint of hostility.
No, you cannot leave.
March 7th stared wide-eyed at Yu Kong in disbelief: "What do you mean? We came all this way to help you, and you don't need it and then you just want to kick us out?"
