Bengtie: My death fueled their madness.

The next day.

Jing Liu yawned, and couldn't help but reminisce about the days when he had just become Qi Zhimu's disciple.

How wonderful those days were... After a good night's sleep, my body would be back to its peak condition, unlike now where I'm so sore all over.

But we can't go back to the past; we have to look forward.

Jingliu stood up nimbly, dressed neatly, and prepared to begin a new day of training, making full preparations for the next battle.

She only planned to rest for three days, not a minute more, and she couldn't slack off on training during that time.

Time flew by, and she was once again assigned to the patrol team, embarking on a journey to eradicate the evil creatures.

Since learning that Bu Liren had died at the hands of his master, Jing Liu has personally experienced the changes in the enemy's situation.

The Bu Liren, who were once incredibly difficult to deal with and equally adept at coordinated combat, have become much weaker after losing their leader.

It's not that their strength has declined, but rather that different groups harbor ulterior motives and rarely fight together.

Sometimes, when they are locked in fierce battle with the Cloud Cavalry, they become even more vigilant when they hear that other hunting groups are approaching.

It's as if they're not afraid of being wiped out by the Cloud Cavalry, but rather afraid of being stabbed in the back by their own kind.

The reason for this is quite simple.

Now, with no leader, different tribes and clans are ruling independently, and everyone wants to become the new leader.

Unfortunately, to become the leader of the warriors, one must possess the power to suppress the entire clan with a single howl.

If one cannot suppress the bloodline, it will be difficult to gain the respect of the masses.

Taibushi speculated that for a long time to come, no new leader would emerge in the entire Buli people's race.

Unless... the pharmacist intervenes.

The diviner can predict many future events, whether true or false, real or imagined, whether or not they are predetermined. As long as the preconditions for prediction are met, there will always be a result.

But once it involves the Star Gods, it becomes impossible to predict.

Even the Emperor of Bows and Fate could not predict when, where, or when the Medicine Master's compassion would descend.

It is not surprising that an envoy may appear among the various races of the Abundant Spoils.

Just thinking about that day sends chills down my spine.

In the blink of an eye, the Immortal Ship Alliance has already paid a heavy price. If another one happens, who knows if two more Immortal Ships will be lost.

Fearing this, the various immortal ships have intensified their efforts to hunt down the evil creatures.

Rather than saying that the Immortal Ship Alliance feared the Envoy of Abundance, it would be more accurate to say that they were wary of its irresistible appeal to the bountiful creatures.

Not to mention, the Abundance Token can also activate beings beyond the realm of reason, giving the entire planet consciousness and turning it into an immortal abomination.

With such a case in mind, the alliance must plan ahead.

……

Qi Zhimu's vacation is over, and he is ready to go on another mission at any time.

However, Yao Qing is currently traveling to a vast Allied Starfield consisting of eight star systems.

Although this civilization is not as powerful as the Immortal Ship Alliance, it is still capable of contending with the Abundant Beasts.

They were not afraid of small- to medium-sized alliances of monstrous creatures, so this star field was relatively peaceful.

The allied civilizations sent a friendly signal regarding the passage of the Immortal Boat Alliance's flagship, Yaoqing.

If needed, they are welcome to make temporary stops for civilized exchanges.

Yao Qing is on the front line of hunting down monstrous creatures and has no need to stop and rest for the time being.

After deliberation, the six officials decided to send a high-level diplomatic delegation to visit the country, while the main ship continued its journey at its current speed.

However, at Yaoqing's current travel speed, it will take at least another year to completely leave this star system.

As a result, the number of patrol and expeditionary battles was reduced by more than half, which made many veteran Yunqi soldiers feel somewhat unaccustomed to it.

The remaining missions are often located tens of light-years away from the main ship.

Jingliu doesn't care how far the mission coordinates are from the main ship; as long as the participation conditions are met, he will definitely volunteer to fight.

She desperately wanted to improve.

More eager than anyone else.

In just four months, she experienced two medium-sized battles.

After a two-day break, they quickly moved on to the next task. Their decisive and efficient approach left a deep impression on many of the superiors in charge of related work.

With her outstanding abilities and aloof, otherworldly temperament, it's no surprise that she is admired by many men on the Immortal Ship.

Jingliu never responded to these people, so there were quite a few women who admired her.

Unfortunately, let alone winning her heart, it was difficult to even become friends with her.

The relationship that can be formed with Jingliu can only go as far as that of comrades or fellow soldiers, and cannot go any further.

Among the very few survivors from Cangcheng, Yunqi, after learning about Jingliu's background, understood best why she acted this way.

Those who have lost their families and loved ones are left with only endless hatred for the rich and evil things of the world, and few people can truly enter their hearts.

This battle took a long time, nearly half a year, before victory was achieved, liberating two secondary star system civilizations from the rule and plunder of the abominations.

On the starship heading to the Dan Ding Division, Jing Liu listened to his comrades' complaints with a blank expression.

"...Damn it, we ran into a surprise attack by the Wingers, otherwise we could have come back a month earlier."

"What can be done? The Wingers' lair was destroyed by the Antimatter Legion, so these birdmen who became galactic wandering mercenaries can only drift around."

"They're like ghosts that won't leave us. Luckily, there weren't many attackers, otherwise we would have been in serious danger with our limited forces."

"If the number of Wingers increases, it will be a large-scale battle, and the Valiant Guard will have to lead the troops. It won't be our turn."

"By the way... Jingliu, you seem to have met the requirements to fight alongside the Valiant Guard long ago, so why are you still participating in medium-sized battles?"

The topic suddenly shifted to Jing Liu, and several pairs of eyes turned to her at the same time.

Not only them, but many of their comrades had also been curious for a long time.

Despite being said to be afraid of death, she almost never took a long break after a war, and continued to lead expeditions without stopping.

"..." Jingliu remained silent, a faint shadow rising deep in his eyes.

Seeing that she had no intention of answering, the others wisely stopped asking.

No one thought she was arrogant or haughty; anyone who had fought alongside her on the battlefield knew that this was just her personality.

She's a classic ice queen; you often won't hear her utter a single word throughout an entire battle.

Despite her cold demeanor, she never hesitated to save her comrades and kill evildoers.

Everyone on this starship had received her life-saving grace, either directly or indirectly.

The entire journey was speechless.

After post-war inspection, Kagami piloted his starship and sped home.

But she never expected—

As soon as they entered the airspace above the martial arts arena, they glanced down and saw Qinghan lying naked in Qi Zhimu's arms.

"...?"

Jingliu was stunned.

She has excellent eyesight and can see everything clearly.

Not only was it cold, but even the master was only wearing training pants, revealing his well-defined and muscular upper body.

Both of them had sweat on their skin from the intense exercise, and their fair skin with a rosy glow was particularly striking.

Below, the master took out an outer garment to wrap Qinghan, carefully picked her up and carried her into the house, looking incredibly gentle and patient.

Witnessing this scene and realizing what had happened, Jingliu's crimson eyes gradually lost their luster and uncontrollably turned even more scarlet.

So it turns out... Master was just not gentle with me...
