"For a general to personally come to demand his return, it must be more than just those simple contributions, right? After all, he has officially separated from the Yaoqing Immortal Ship."
"It was only with the approval of General Yaoqing that he left voluntarily, which is why he had nothing to do with Yaoqing Immortal Ship. But why did that general suddenly come to demand him in person at this time?"
Jing Yuan was startled; he hadn't expected Fu Xuan to ask this, and his expression immediately turned rather unpleasant.
Is it really okay to reveal someone's little secret? But even if I don't say anything, it won't be long before the whole world knows most of it.
In the end, the rumors might get even more outlandish, with all sorts of strange explanations like love turning into hate likely to emerge.
Jing Yuan was quite troubled by this thought. It wasn't that he wanted to say this, but if he didn't, the most outrageous rumors would likely spread about his own Luofu Immortal Boat.
Don't underestimate the gossip-loving abilities and imaginative fabrications of the people of Xianzhou. There's an old saying in Xianzhou: "It takes only a mouth to spread rumors, but debunking them takes a lot of legwork."
After weighing the pros and cons, Jing Yuan straightened his expression. Fu Xuan, who had been waiting for a while, also became serious upon seeing Jing Yuan's demeanor.
"Fu Qing, the relationship between Chen Jie and Fei Xiao is somewhat complicated."
Upon hearing this, Fu Xuan's eyes lit up.
Hmm? Complicated? A man and a woman, one scholar and one warrior, is there some big gossip going on?!
Seeing Fu Xuan's keen interest, Jing Yuan sighed inwardly, knowing he hadn't guessed wrong; he had only just begun and it was already like this.
"Chen Jie was originally a short-lived species, but he was captured by the Bu Li people who were 'herding' him. According to Chen Jie, he persuaded the Bu Li people who wanted to kill him before he was taken to their lair."
Fu Xuan:?
At this moment, Fu Xuan hurriedly interjected, "Wait, General, what kind of persuasion are you referring to?"
In what aspect? Jing Yuan was taken aback. He didn't know either. Ever since Chen Jie was able to transform into a dragon today, he had known that Chen Jie possessed countless secrets.
Dust Calamity is an unsung hero of the Azure Immortal Ship, but he is definitely more than just an unsung hero of the Azure Immortal Ship.
"I'm not sure about that, but the general situation was that General Yuyue received a distress signal and rushed to rescue the fox people, bringing Chenjie out with him."
"I vaguely remember that Feixiao was only thirty years old back then, and Chenjie was about the same age as Yanqing today, a child of twelve."
Fu Xuan nodded thoughtfully. So that's how the bond between Chen Jie and Yao Qing Immortal Boat came about.
So, it seems that Chen Jie and General Fei Xiao were childhood sweethearts.
Fu Xuan's eyes widened in shock, which made Jing Yuan feel even more bitter. Had things gone wrong so early?
Upon hearing this, Fu Qing immediately began to imagine a dramatic love-hate relationship. Ah, indeed, her worries were justified.
"Afterwards, Feixiao followed General Yuyue to learn martial arts. Chenjie also wanted to, but General Yuyue refused and asked Chenjie to study literature instead. Chenjie did not refuse, and life continued peacefully like this."
Fu Xuan listened intently and blurted out without hesitation, "And then? Why did these two childhood sweethearts eventually go their separate ways?"
Jingyuan:
"I never imagined Fu Qing was also love-struck."
Seeing Jing Yuan's speechless expression, Fu Xuan realized he had misspoke and awkwardly laughed, "General, please continue."
"In fact, Fu Qing knew later that because of General Yu Yue's rescue, the Fengrao people broke out into war much earlier. General Yu Yue died in battle, and Fei Xiao was ordered to take up the general's seal and lead the troops to fight the enemy in a time of crisis."
"It was at this time that Chen Jie began to follow Fei Xiao in martial arts and became Fei Xiao's disciple. Fei Xiao was initially unwilling to be addressed as such, but Chen Jie said that learning has no end, and those who have attained enlightenment are teachers."
"Finally, as to how Chen Jie broke with Fei Xiao and had nothing to do with Yao Qing Immortal Boat, I have no idea."
In the end, Jing Yuan shook his head regretfully.
Did he not know? He didn't know before, but he found out during today's match against Huanlong. Fortunately, it didn't lead to the kind of mistake that happened with Danfeng and Yingxing; at most, it was just a scandal.
If it's a scandal, then let's keep it hidden if we can.
He just couldn't understand why Chen Jie hadn't sought advice from Fei Xiao, but instead went to Tian Feng Jun first.
Seeing that Jing Yuan was no longer speaking, Fu Xuan knew it was over, but she still smacked her lips, seemingly wanting more.
"Why would Chen Jie say that he almost became a general as well?"
Jingyuan had been puzzled by this question before, and only learned the answer today.
"Dust Calamity has rendered meritorious service in killing enemies and made significant scientific research contributions to the Immortal Ship Alliance. Even without those strange armors, his martial prowess is not much inferior to Flying Sky's."
"Therefore, Feixiao planned to pass the position of general to Chenjie after her. However, Chenjie was unwilling to become the [Hunting] Envoy, or even to embark on the [Hunting] path. After that, he left Yaoqing."
Fu Xuan: ???
Chapter 129 Fu Xuan: The Tribulation Helps Me
At this moment, Fu Xuan's expression was no better than when she learned on March 7th that Chen Jie had refused to become the [Guardian] Token Envoy; her mind was also in a daze.
"Alright, Fu Qing has everything she wanted to know. I also need to rest. If there's nothing else, I'll take a break."
Fearing Fu Xuan might ask some strange questions, Jing Yuan blocked Fu Xuan's path first, even lying flat on the bed. By the time Fu Xuan reacted, Jing Yuan had already closed his eyes and covered himself with a thin blanket.
Even their breathing became even.
A hint of disappointment flickered in her eyes as she looked lingeringly at the sleeping Jingyuan.
She actually had a few more questions she wanted to ask, but since Jing Yuan needed to rest, she decided against it. The questions she wanted to ask were indeed somewhat gossipy.
As Fu Xuan left and the door closed, Jing Yuan unconsciously turned over.
However, when Fu Xuan returned to his residence to revisit government affairs, Qing Xuan rushed over in a hurry within a few hours.
"My lord, what do you think?"
"Huh? What?"
As Fu Xuan was happily reviewing and approving government documents, he looked up and saw a slightly familiar fan.
"This is"
"This is the fan of the ferryman. It was found by the Cloud Cavalry when they were cleaning up the battlefield of the Works and Equipment Bureau. I also had the material of this fan studied."
"It's a small item from my Luofu shop, a fan that Miss Tingyun specially commissioned back then."
"Uh..." Fu Xuan fell silent, frowning in deep thought.
"Whether Huanlong's impersonation of the ferryman began decades ago, or only recently, remains unknown to us."
"Very well, let someone send this to the Sky-Driving Master. I, the Diviner, have heard of Tingyun's name by now, so let's leave it as a memento for the Sky-Driving Master."
Qingxuan slowly nodded and put the fan away.
"Grand Diviner, there is one more matter. The sudden growth of the Jianmu tree has led to rampant demonic activity. The growing Jianmu tree has pierced through the Creation Furnace of the Bureau of Works and Construction, causing the year's end."
Qingxuan's voice trailed off: "They all ran out."
"What?! Suiyang has all come out?!"
Upon hearing this news, Fu Xuan was so startled that he jumped up from his chair, knocking the bamboo slips he had just been reviewing to the ground.
"Quickly! Immediately notify the Ten Kings Division to search for and capture Suiyang, who has escaped. The Cloud Cavalry will fully cooperate with them in the capture."
"Yes"
Watching Qingxuan's hurried departure, Fu Xuan felt a headache coming on.
"Since Suiyang has run out, do we have to bother the train crew again?"
Fu Xuan blushed at the thought of the train crew.
From the moment of the disaster at Luofu, the passengers of the Starry Sky Train have been helping from beginning to end, from clearing out the minor enemies at the start to finally facing the Illusionary Dragon in the final battle.
The decisive battle has just ended, and Suiyang has already fled and started causing trouble. She didn't know this before she was a general, but now that she's an acting general, her scalp is tingling with fear.
She discovered a terrible reality: apart from Jing Yuan, there was really no one else available on their Luofu Immortal Ship!
What, you mean Yanqing?
Yanqing has been beaten into a state of depression and has disappeared. Besides, finding Yanqing won't help with Suiyang's problem.
Jing Yuan definitely needs rest. Even if he wasn't injured in the fight against Huanlong, the battle between the envoys will definitely accelerate the eruption of his Demonic Yin Body for Jing Yuan in his current state.
And we just agreed that I shouldn't be forced to let Jing Yuan take action so soon after becoming the acting general, right?
Fu Xuan's face turned even redder.
Feeling both embarrassed and flustered, she was truly too ashamed to trouble the passengers of the Starry Sky Train again.
Suddenly, the small but incredibly capable diviner Fu Xuan's eyes lit up, and his face stopped blushing.
"Wait a minute, Alphs Dust Calamity! He was a passenger on the train, but he was also a member of my Immortal Ship Alliance before. Isn't he similar to a Commander?"
"Since he's willing to help Jingyuan against Huanlong out of consideration for our past relationship, shouldn't some of the Suiyang who fled also step in?"
The more Fu Xuan talked, the less confident he became. Chen Jie helped Jing Yuan because they had always been close friends, but they were not related to him at all.
Fu Xuan gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with determination: "Never mind, let's try anything!"
Fu Xuan immediately took out her phone. Back in Lin Yuan Realm, she had secretly added the Dust Tribulation method behind Jing Yuan's back, since Jing Yuan had tacitly accepted that Dust Tribulation almost made him a general.
She added it with the intention of learning from others, but it unexpectedly came in very handy.
However, after Fu Xuan finished making the call, he froze on the spot.
"Sorry, the number you dialed is currently switched off. Please try again later."
"Huh? It's off? What happened?"
Unconvinced, Fu Xuan tried again, but the result was still that the other party's phone was switched off and he couldn't get through. This made Fu Xuan rub his temples in frustration.
"Are we really going to have to trouble the passengers of the Star Train again? Sigh."
Meanwhile, Chen Jie and Liu Ying were strolling hand in hand, taking photos at various popular spots.
Liu Ying looked at the photos she had taken along the way and smiled happily.
"It's a pity Xing isn't here. I was hoping the three of us could take some photos together."
"There will be a chance, but definitely not now. By the way, there are so many places to visit in Luofu!"
Dust Calamity surveyed his surroundings. The news of Illusion's defeat and escape, and the Immortal Ship's complete victory, had spread throughout the Luofu Immortal Ship the moment they emerged from the Scale Abyss Realm.
Every Xianzhou person's eyes are filled with confidence, and wasn't he once one of them?
