"Hmm... okay, I'll wait for you here."

Rita reluctantly let go of Liu Bai's arm.

"..."

Just like Natasha, Rita was also stunned for two minutes after Liu Bai entered the restroom.

"I...I...I...What did I do?"

...Although I don't regret it at all, thinking about Liu Bai, I even feel that it's acceptable?

No! This is clearly a case of my own perception being altered!

Although Rita admitted that she thought highly of Liu Bai, it hadn't come to this point yet, had it?

But even knowing this won't help...

"That Natasha... she'd rather get infected herself than let me die with her? She's the number one bastard ever!"

Even if it's just that Lilingta's quality is very high, after a brief review of the situation and digging into the details, I also realized the problem and started to scold Ling.

dream

but……

"Hmph... I guess I won this time?"

Rita revealed another smug smile.

That's enough to push Natasha to this point.

As for the relationship between Shencheng Medicine and World Serpent... we haven't been able to get any information from Natasha yet.

The opponent's mouth is as tight as his own; you could say they've met their match.

But then again, what exactly was in that cup of coffee? It subtly and directly altered her understanding.

This gave her a filter of seeing Liu Bai through the lens of her beloved.

The mechanism of action of this drug is still unclear, but once it is widely available…

Rita shivered; she still vividly remembered the feeling of being "blinded by love" just moments before.

Even now, Rita knows that sending a message and leaving is the best option, but she still feels a sense of reluctance.

ding dong...

[Liu Bai: Xiao Guizi cooked and set the house on fire, I'm going home now]

...It's really thanks to Mr. Liu Bai for pointing out the problem today.

Otherwise, it's really hard to say how things will end up.

Rita suppressed the urge to continue chatting with Liu Bai on the chat app and turned off the bracelet.

That concludes today's strategy.

"You must have had a very tiring day, Mr. Liu Bai."

Back at the Dust Song Pot, Firefly poured Liu Bai a cup of tea.

"Your face is so tired it's practically overflowing."

"Hmm...sometimes dealing with unexpected and nonsensical situations is more tiring than dealing with routine battles of wits," Bai sighed.

"An unexpected and nonsensical situation...?"

Liu Ying tilted her head and pondered for a moment.

"Hmm... I think I can understand it quite well? Wasn't our crash to Earth also a kind of nonsensical, unexpected situation? We were clearly outside the established shipping lanes..."

"It's probably not just outside the shipping lanes."

A cold-looking, scantily clad, and capable purple-haired swordsman came down from the second floor.

"Miss Huang Quan."

Liu Bai greeted the female swordsman.

Yesterday's biggest gain after Night Orchid exploded with gold coins.

Huangquan.

Also known as the cook with a cat-shaped face.

As for the background relationship, it is "employment".

The initial favorability level is 30.

If we don't count the fireflies, they should be Liu Bai's biggest trump card.

Getting an up-rate character in 50 pulls is a fairly standard probability.

"Miss Huang Quan, what do you mean by that?"

Liu Ying tilted her head, somewhat puzzled.

She could sense a dangerous aura emanating from Huang Quan.

"...Sir, you have another companion, right? Is she also a Fate Walker?"

"Yes."

"Let's call her back and talk about it together, although this is just a guess."

Huang Quan looked serious, and Liu Bai had no choice but to take it seriously as well, so he called back Gui Naifen, who was in charge of watching Xiao Kong.

"Isn't this meeting a bit too serious...?"

Looking at Huang Quan's expression, Gui Naifen sensed that the atmosphere around her was somewhat oppressive.

"Um... Miss Huang Quan, right? What did you want to say?"

"This planet."

Huang Quan was sparing with words, yet it seemed as if he was carefully choosing his phrases.

"This planet is probably not just outside the shipping lanes, but very likely... outside the sight of God."

"?"

"?"

"?"

The three people listening in each had a question mark appear above their heads.

"Um... what does 'outside God's field of vision' mean?"

"Miss Gui, do you know the earliest known Destiny Walker?"

“I know, I know. The ‘city builders’ who revere and imitate the actions of the God of Heaven and the Amber King.”

In the Xianzhou belief, only two gods can be revered as the God of Fate.

The two purposes are hunting and preservation.

Having been in Xianzhou for so long, I still know about Gui Naifen's affairs.

"Yes, back then, the Star God had not yet ascended to godhood. In that era, only the Star God could travel the starry sea. The universe was almost a forbidden place for ordinary people. But even so, it did not prevent some people's piety from being caught by the Amber King and embarking on their destiny. Even if the other party was not a city builder who imitated the behavior."

"what……"

After hearing Huang Quan's words, Liu Ying seemed to vaguely understand something.

However, Gui Naifen and Liu Bai were still a little confused.

"...Miss Gui, have you ever discovered any Destiny Walkers on this planet?" Huang Quan asked helplessly, pressing the question further.

"They're not available in this city right now...maybe they'll be in other places?"

"Miss Gui, you are also a traveler on the path of destiny."

As a cook with a sullen face, Huang Quan's words were quite euphemistic compared to her appearance.

It's practically saying, "Even you are a traveler on a path of destiny, do you dare say you haven't met anyone more outstanding than you in this world?"

Gui Naifen: "..."

Gui Naifen was sweating profusely.

She had to admit that although she hadn't met many people with Liu Bai so far, they were all elites.

"You...you mean the Star God has no jurisdiction over this planet? This must be...a joke, right?"

Although she had no particular faith, as an interstellar person accustomed to the existence of the Star God, Gui Naifen still expressed her doubts.

"You can take this as a joke."

"..."

This new companion is so difficult to deal with... especially with that cold attitude.

"Um, I still have power?"

"In the end, for a destiny walker, destiny is nothing more than a glimpse of the star god. Even without destiny and the star god, the skills honed through countless trials will not betray you."

Ultimately, the vast majority of those who follow the path of destiny receive only their destiny from the Star God; only a minority receive blessings—oh, the people of abundance are not included.

Some organizations that believe in star gods go around doing things, perhaps partly for self-gratification and partly to curry favor with the star gods and gain their blessings.

"Um... cough, I think I understand. So what use is this information to us?"

"use……"

Huang Quan thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"I don't know, I'm just saying what I know."

"..."

Why is this fierce new companion suddenly acting like a bit of a goofball?

"Is its purpose simply to provide assistance when there is no rescue?"

Liu Bai spoke.

"At least for now, we can't expect any rescue from the heavens—by the way, Miss Huang Quan, are you alright?"

"Please rest assured, this knife is enough for me, and besides, this world..."

Huang Quan's flat tone revealed no emotion.

Hmm... if you look at it that way, it seems pretty reliable.

"I'm going back to my room first."

Huang Quan nodded slightly and then went upstairs.

When the sound of the door closing upstairs reached her ears, Gui Naifen scratched her head and spoke:

"Um... Miss Huangquan went into a room that looks like Miss Liuying's room?"

"Maybe it's because I'm new here that I made a mistake? Anyway, there are plenty of empty rooms, I'll just pick one at random—oh, by the way, Mr. Liu Bai, would you like to stay at the Pot tonight? You haven't stayed at the Chenge Pot since it was renovated, have you?" Liu Ying didn't mind, and instead brought up Liu Bai.

Hmm... if you put it that way, it does seem to be true.

"Okay, it doesn't matter where we stay anyway. I'll let Xiao Guizi out in a bit—by the way, don't you guys feel anything about what I just said?"

"You mean we can't go back? Well, it doesn't matter. Going back would just mean running around on a few immortal ships. Even if I miss my younger siblings a little, I don't have to worry about anything with my older brother and the others around."

"I'm already incredibly lucky to have survived. Even if I can't go back... it's not a big deal. At least Mr. Liu Bai is here with me... and it seems like there are more and more people coming?"

"...Not necessarily. What if we're suddenly being watched here?"

Will the condition for clearing the game be returning to space?

Then we'll have to look forward to the star core.

"I won't say anything more, I'll go and tidy up your room right away, Mr. Liu Bai."

Firefly got up and went upstairs with great interest.

"Miss Firefly seems to be having a lot of fun. Boss, you'd better be careful tonight."
