Damn it, something's wrong with the gacha I got.

If she still has enough manpower, even if the diviner himself came, she might still be able to handle the situation...

With a light tap of his staff, Dan Shu faced the direction where Fu Xuan was, silently clenching his teeth.

"Hehe..." Dan Shu chuckled softly, his blind face turned towards Fu Xuan, his voice revealing no panic, but rather a hint of inquiry, "Grand Diviner, when exactly... did you discover my identity?"

"Hmph!" Fu Xuan's eyes shone like stars, his aura fierce and imposing. "With my all-seeing eye, I have calculated everything in Luofu. How dare you wretches plot against me?"

She stepped forward, her clear voice resounding, "Your actions of summoning the Star Core to disrupt the Immortal Ship, reviving the remains of the Jianmu Tree, and luring good people into the demonic realm are enough to condemn you to eternal imprisonment at the bottom of hell, where you will never see the light of day again until your death!"

She and General Jingyuan had already learned of Danshu's true appearance from Walter. This time, they took advantage of the internal strife in the Medicine King's Secret Passage to lead their troops to surround and eliminate this scourge.

Do you really think these ruthless bastards can get away with anything under Xianzhou's nose?

"Sin?" Dan Shu seemed to have heard something absurd, a mocking smile curving his lips. "If I am guilty, then the ancestors of the Immortal Ship—those who first knelt to receive the blessings of [Abundance] and were granted immortality—are no different from them. And now, those elders in the high halls of the Immortal Ship, who fear death and crave life, are on the same path as me."

She raised her head slightly, tapping the ground lightly with her wooden staff, her voice growing colder: "The secret of the Medicine King is nothing more than retracing the old path of our ancestors and pursuing the true nature of life. What crime is there in that? Today you attack me with 'crime,' aren't you also betraying the original 'righteous path' of the Immortal Ship?"

Dan Shu's voice was cold, so cold it pierced to the very core of one's being.

She firmly believes that she did nothing wrong; the fault lies with the hunting party!

It was that hunting arrow of light that pierced through the stars that took the life of her best friend!

Moreover, the people of the Immortal Boat originated from the bountiful grace of the land. All she is doing now is leading her compatriots back to the right path. What crime has she committed?

"Utterly absurd! I thought you'd come up with something new, but it turns out you're just spouting the same old seductive platitudes—"

Before Fu Xuan could finish speaking, a sudden change occurred.

Several dark green vines, like living snakes, suddenly emerged from the ground and cracks in the walls, quickly coiling around Dan Shu and the followers who were trapped in the demonic body.

However, in the blink of an eye, the group was bound tightly and unable to struggle.

"...What is this?" Fu Xuan frowned, looking around warily.

"Lord Diviner! We've arrived!"

Several shouts came from the side, and Fu Xuan turned his head suddenly, but couldn't help but be stunned!

What came into view was a black deer surrounded by an aura of abundance, and Chen Bai and the others were riding steadily on its back.

"What's going on with this... deer that exudes such a rich aura?!" Fu Xuan's tone suddenly tightened, and he subconsciously took a half step back.

The Fengrao Xuanlu stopped nearby with steady steps, and Chen Bai and the other three got out of the car nimbly.

He casually patted the side of the black deer's neck, his tone relaxed:

"My Lord, there's no need to be alarmed. This is just a mount I acquired along the way."

Fu Xuan: ?

A mount? Tame this bountiful monster mount? Could it be that my synesthetic star is malfunctioning?

“Fu Taibu, this is what happened…” Walter stepped forward at the right moment and briefly recounted what had happened.

After hearing this, Fu Xuan's expression showed a rare hint of bewilderment.

If she hadn't seen the gentle black deer and the bound Dan Shu with her own eyes, she would have almost thought they were telling some absurd folktale.

"Hoo..." She took a deep breath, pressed her slightly swollen forehead, and suppressed her chaotic thoughts.

Now is not the time to delve into it further.

“Just now I was confronting the remnants of the Medicine King’s secret faction, and this scene—” she pointed to Dan Shu and his group, who were still struggling and bound by vines, “was probably your doing, wasn’t it?”

“That’s right. I just saw you guys, who don’t look like good people, confronting each other, so I had my precious mount summon vines to strike first… But, Lord Taibu, since you already knew that their leader was Danshu, why bother with all that nonsense? A direct and forceful strike is the only way to go.”

Chen Bai crossed his arms and answered decisively.

Fu Xuan: "..."

Okay, you're right.

However, I was just about to strike hard when I didn't expect you to act so quickly.

"Why...why is Feng Rao on your side?"

Dan Shu stared in disbelief at Chen Bai, who was intimately interacting with the Fengrao Xuanlu.

Although she is blind, she can still "see" the abundant power that is connected to Chen Bai through her special senses.

This abundant power was even stronger than hers, and the abundant deer beside her seemed to be helping Chen Bai and his group deal with them.

Could it be that Feng Rao... also betrayed me?

"Why? Haven't you already seen them? Alright, I'm too lazy to waste words with you, Your Excellency, let's deal with them quickly."

Chen Bai urged the pink-haired divination master.

Fu Xuan nodded slightly: "I understand. Go and gather this group of traitors."

She directly ordered the Cloud Cavalry to prepare to capture the bound Dan Shu and several demonic spirits.

Seeing this, Dan Shu gritted his teeth.

Although somewhat unwilling, he couldn't care less about that now and shouted directly at the fake Tingyun:

"Huanlong, the Medicine King's Secret Manual has already completed the task for you. It's time to fulfill your promise. Why don't you make your move now?!"

Chapter 80 Illusion: You've been wronged by acting with me all this time, haven't you?

The moment Dan Shu finished speaking, the surrounding air seemed to freeze.

All eyes turned to the fake Tingyun, who had been standing quietly at the back of the line.

She gently shook her head, her lips curving into an almost bewitching arc that was completely different from Tingyun's gentle temperament, before slowly walking out from the crowd.

His steps were unhurried, even carrying a hint of the languidness and deliberate effort of a famous actor taking the stage.

"Tsk tsk... Why force me to take action myself?" Her voice was still gentle and charming, but it was imbued with a cold, playful regret. "This goes against my aesthetics of destruction."

Huanlong's fox-like eyes shifted slightly, her gaze turning to Danshu with a half-smile. "And you, my dear little pawn... who gave you the illusion that your mission is already complete?"

Her tone grew colder, her words like thin blades scraping across ice: "The Secret of the Medicine King? You're nothing but a bunch of useless trash who can't even quell internal strife. If I hadn't personally intervened and allowed the Jianmu tree to revive as scheduled, your pathetic little tricks would have been nipped in the bud. And now, you still have the nerve to ask me for a promise?"

Upon hearing this, Dan Shu's fingers tightened suddenly, his knuckles turning white.

"Alright, Gensou." A calm yet uncompromising voice suddenly interrupted.

Chen Bai crossed his arms, his face full of undisguised impatience. "That's enough acting. We already know who you are. Stop dawdling and hurry up."

The air fell silent for a moment.

Huanlong's fake smile froze at the corner of her mouth, then slowly faded.

She narrowed her alluring fox eyes, her gaze slowly sweeping over Fu Xuan and Walter like a probe, before finally settling on Chen Bai again.

"Oh...?" Her voice rose dangerously at the end, "So... you all already knew my identity?"

Only then did she realize that, ever since Dan Shu called out her real name, the faces of the group opposite her showed not the slightest surprise or shock, only a knowing indifference.

This is absolutely not the reaction one should have upon hearing the truth on the spot.

But when did they find out...?

Could it be that these Fengrao wastes leaked out?

That's not impossible...

"I already knew that. It must have been exhausting to play along with your act all this way. Alright, hurry up and do whatever you want, whether you want to tilt your head or transform into a big boss or something. We don't have that much time to waste on your nonsense."

Chen Bai picked at his ear.

Huanlong: "..."

I feel bad for making this a charade with you, right?

"Heh~ In that case, this little woman's act should come to an end. As for you all..."

Upon hearing this, Huanlong chuckled and turned to Danshu: "Since you have received the blessing of abundance, then you should also be able to withstand the blessing of destruction, right?"

The next moment, her head twisted at an odd angle.

"Crack!"

At that moment, Chen Bai used his phone to capture the infamous moment of Huanlong's crooked neck, muttering to himself with considerable satisfaction, "Great, the angle of that crooked neck is just right. Maybe this photo can scare the kids sometime, hehehe~"

Huanlong: "......"

Others: "......"

Is it time to take a picture?

However, our Great Queen of Extinction is now practicing her own aesthetics of destruction, so it's not the right time to make a move against Chen Bai and the others. We'll wait until she obtains the Jianmu tree!

Click!

A crisp sound rang out, and Huanlong's disguised Tingyun's head fell to the ground, then his entire body went limp and was enveloped by a blue flame of destruction.

Immediately afterwards, a ball of bluish-yellow flame flew out from the shell of Tingyun and hovered in the air.

The original shell of Tingyun was burned to nothing but ashes.

Dan Shu and other members of the Medicine King's secret lineage were all transformed into Void Soldiers by Huanlong.

"My esteemed benefactors, I, the Great Lord of Extinction, am taking my leave now."

As soon as she finished speaking, all the phantom soldiers she had transformed swarmed towards Chen Bai and his group.

Watching the train crews fighting against the antimatter army, and seeing the strange and beautiful scene, I felt incredibly happy.

Finally... finally, she could obtain her abundant Jianmu wood and create a healthy body for herself.

With the abundant body of the Jianmu tree as its blessing, not only will Luofu be destroyed, but these nosy nameless guests will also be easily captured.

Without hesitation, Huanlong flew towards Jianmu.

The antimatter legions were wiped out within minutes of Illusion leaving.

"Now that Huanlong has appeared, Uncle Yang, where is the original Miss Tingyun? Could it be...?"

March 7th seemed to have guessed the answer she didn't want to know.

“Little March, let’s not jump to conclusions yet. Illusion is obsessed with the dual destruction of the spirit and the material, leading from the collapse of the soul to the demise of the body. However, Tingyun’s words and actions do not seem to be influenced or controlled by Illusion, so I suspect that this may be an incarnation of Illusion.”

Walter's words gave the ship a tiny glimmer of hope.

Although it's unlikely, what if the real Tingyun is still alive?

If she were alive, where would she be now?

If I remember correctly, Tingyun was attacked by the Antimatter Legion on the starship he was riding. If he survived, he would be adrift in the vast sea of ​​stars. Unless someone happens to pass by and rescues him, it would be very difficult to survive in space.

"Tingyun... Meow"

Bai Lu Mi murmured.

She also expressed some sadness about Tingyun's situation. Although Tingyun was the ferryman, she knew that Bailu, as the Vidyadhara Dragon Lord, did not have corresponding freedom. Therefore, she would often use her connections and energy to secure short vacations for her, taking care of her like an older sister.

It would be a lie to say that Bailu wasn't sad.

At this moment, Chen Bai's voice broke the brief silence:

"If you ask me, the culprit that led to this situation and caused Miss Tingyun's predicament is not Illusion, but your Immortal Ship Luofu."

"Hmm? What do you mean by that, Your Excellency?"

Fu Xuan frowned.

"What do I mean? Haven't I made myself very clear? Isn't the situation very clear now? Your Luofu Pill Refining Division has been infiltrated like a sieve, and these villainous leaders are still swaggering in and out of Luofu... Isn't this a problem of mismanagement within your Immortal Ship?"

"Also, I remember Miss Tingyun had a merchant voyage mission before this, right? Your Immortal Ship official should have records to check. Maybe Huanlong took advantage of that opportunity. But think about it carefully, if someone hadn't tipped her off and leaked the whereabouts of Tingyun's merchant corps, how could she have suffered this calamity? So, your Luofu, no, it's possible that the entire Immortal Ship Alliance, has too many traitors. It's truly rotten from top to bottom."

Chen Bai continued speaking.

Chapter 81 White Dew: At worst, I'll just be an anonymous guest!

"you--"

Fu Xuan glared angrily, but before he could speak, Chen Bai raised his hand to interrupt him.
