Bad women are always eyeing me covetously.

Although such thoughts crossed her mind, Xi Lan quickly suppressed them, pretending that nothing had happened.

A little envious, but not much.

Now he can only live a life protected by Xing and March 7th.

If that's the case, we might as well go back to the train.

This makes me feel like a burden, unable to do anything.

Looking at the unfamiliar scenery, Xi Lan was filled with countless thoughts, which could only be expressed in a subtle sigh.

That repulsive smell still lingered, causing Xi Lan to frown and rub her nose.

"Miss Tingyun! Please step back! They have fallen into demonic possession and are no longer our comrades!"

There appears to be a battle taking place ahead.

Xing and the others took out their weapons and noticed the soldiers wearing Cloud Cavalry armor, but the atmosphere around them was subtle, as if they were surrounding someone.

Anyway, it's time for Galaxy Bats to take the stage and March 7th to play!

Xi Lan silently stepped aside, and with her sharp eyes, she naturally spotted the other fox-person being protected by the Cloud Cavalry.

Although she didn't think she could help in combat, Xilan believed her stealth skills were decent.

After all, in the midst of battle, no one can say for sure whether they can protect that seemingly frail fox-person.

...

Why does it feel like it's talking about myself?

Xi Lan shook her head subtly, quickly banishing these strange thoughts at this moment.

Then, taking advantage of the opportunity, he dragged the fox-man in the midst of the melee to his own safe area.

"ah!"

She seemed to be in shock; even the fox-woman didn't know when Xi Lan had sneaked here.

Just as she was about to cry for help, a sudden elbow strike aimed at Xi Lan's abdomen forced her to cover her mouth.

Even though it was a bit sneaky to do it, she was really a good person!

"Shh, keep your voice down, it's perfectly safe here." Xi Lan wrapped her arms loosely around her waist to prevent the fox-person from falling over if she wasn't careful. "Don't worry, the people who joined the battle earlier are all my partners. Let's be quiet for now, and we can talk properly after we've sorted things out, okay?"

Xi Lan lowered her voice and whispered in her ear, while giving her a comforting smile.

"...You really scared this humble woman to death, my benefactor..."

Those emerald green eyes glanced at the ears on Xi Lan's head, seemingly relieved, and leaned against her chest, regaining their strength.

Although the person looked somewhat familiar, Xi Lan simply remained stiff, letting the other person lean against her.

Why is this person so outgoing?

Or is this how fox people greet each other?

A hint of confusion seemed to flash in her light purple eyes. Having not interacted much with other fox-people of her kind, Xi Lan's little head was naturally in a state of mental turmoil.

In just a short while, Xing seemed to have finished the battle. She looked around with her light golden eyes, as if searching for Xi Lan's figure.

Finally, in a corner, they saw someone helping the fox-person.

For some reason, I felt that Xing's eyes were a little sore, but when I looked again, it was as if nothing had happened.

Maybe it's an illusion?

Having regained some strength, the fox-woman realized the battle was over and then broke free from the man's embrace with Xilan's help.

"Miss Tingyun! Are you alright?!"

The Cloud Cavalry soldiers quickly grabbed their weapons and rushed to where Xi Lan was.

Faced with March 7th's incredibly puzzled gaze, the only explanation she could offer was: "Just helping someone hide, to prevent any accidents from happening."

She's not the kind of woman who falls in love with someone at first sight, so how could she possibly hug and kiss someone casually?

Xi Lan, who was too naive in this regard, wagged her tail.

However, their conversation after the battle didn't seem to go very smoothly.

The final destination has been changed to [Starship Sea - Sky Ship Bureau], to meet that Sky Master.

As they moved forward, Xi Lan finally couldn't resist her curiosity and poked March 7's waist.

They were whispering something to each other beside her.

The silver-white fox asked curiously, "I say, is it always this troublesome for you every time you go to a new planet?"

Especially after receiving a positive answer from March 7th, the expression on her face seemed to become even more subtle.

It seems that even if they don't go to the Immortal Ship, or even if they go to Pinocchio, given the physical condition of this group of train passengers, they will probably get involved in some unknown trouble.

Should I accompany them to the next stop? Won't I get caught up in some strange things?

Xi Lan, unusually, fell into deep thought.

----------------

Regardless, after overcoming numerous hardships (various puzzles without rewards) and resolving various troubles, Xi Lan and her companions finally arrived at the Star Chariot Sea.

Compared to the deathly silence on the deck, the bustling atmosphere of this crowd was much more comfortable for Xi Lan.

"This journey has been exhausting... My tail must have shed a lot of fur. Oh, my beautiful tail." Tingyun sighed, seemingly genuinely lamenting the loss of fur on her tail.

Meanwhile, Xing and March 7th both focused their attention on Xilan walking behind them... her tail.

"What are you looking at! My tail is perfectly fine!" Xi Lan snapped out of her daze and instinctively covered her tail.

Although that's what she said... she had already planned to find a place to buy some essential oils to properly care for her tail.

A shed tail is unacceptable!!

Tingyun seemed to remember something and beckoned to Xilan.

"Oh right, this... benefactor, please come here for a moment, I have something I'd like to tell you."

She leaned close to the man's ear, her cheeks slightly flushed, and whispered something: "If possible, please, my benefactor, control your pheromones a little, otherwise..."

"Otherwise...it will still attract strange people who will specifically keep an eye on you."

Chapter 94 Why can't you pay more attention to me?

Upon hearing this, Xi Lan blushed deeply.

As a fox spirit herself, she was actually bewitched by the person in front of her.

Now, Xilan is only curious about one thing.

What are pheromones?

"Thank you very much, but Miss Tingyun, what exactly are pheromones?"

Tingyun paused for a moment, then giggled and said with a playful smile, "My benefactor, you really know how to joke. As a fox spirit, you're already an adult, how could you not know about this?"

"...But I'm only in my early twenties. According to other people, I'm already an adult within the average age range for short-lived species." Xi Lan scratched her cheek a little embarrassedly. "But if you're a fox-person, I think I'm still considered a minor, right?"

Under Tingyun's somewhat incredulous gaze, Xilan simply looked at him sincerely.

"Moreover, I've never encountered a fox-person similar to me... I really don't understand pheromones and all that."

Could you please explain it to me in more detail?

As soon as she finished speaking, Xi Lan saw a blush visibly spread across the face of the fox-woman in front of her.

"This, this, this is something usually taught by elders in the family... You..." How could you not know such a thing? Before Tingyun could finish speaking, Xilan added appropriately:

“Ah, my biological parents didn’t want me.” She said very sincerely, “And the lady who raised me was not a fox.”

As for Kafka, who abandoned her, she was naturally overlooked by Yulan.

Her expression froze instantly, and a hint of disbelief flashed in her emerald green eyes.

Even Tingyun, this eloquent ferryman from the Tianbo Company, was somewhat... at a loss for words in the face of this situation.

Perhaps you'll wake up suddenly in the middle of the night and, facing the version of yourself that asked you that question, you'll feel like punching yourself.

"Well then, my benefactor, you should go see Lord Yu Kong with the rest of the train first. We have also reported the matter concerning our benefactors truthfully. Please prepare to go in."

The man's smile looked somewhat forced: "And I, young lady, will first prepare for you a book on the basic physiology of fox people, um... as an apology for what you just asked."

Tingyun walked away looking somewhat lost, but Xilan's keen hearing still allowed her to hear him muttering something under his breath.

Xi Lan could only vaguely hear the other person muttering, "How come he's so mature, like he's a hundred or two hundred years old... Judging from his smell... I thought he was an adult..."

"Could it be a problem with my sense of smell?"

Do I look very mature?

She subconsciously touched her face, muttering to herself.

That's all Xi Lan could hear. After Ting Yun walked away, all that remained was the bustling sound of the crowd.

What did she just say?

Once back in the train group, Xilan, under the curious gazes of Xing and Sanyueqi, recounted the conversation she had just had with them.

"Wow... if it were me, I'd probably punch myself when I woke up at night."

March 7th glanced at Tingyun's departing figure, then at Xilan, who seemed not to have taken the matter to heart.

I'm so glad I didn't ask about it before, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to sleep at night.

One of the pretty girls thought to herself.

"Is everyone ready to meet that Lord Sky Soarer?"

Xi Lan didn't take the matter to heart. Under the subtle gazes of these people, she asked them questions without caring.
