"Oh?"
Lin Yuan's lips curled up.
"However, General Jingyuan, these are your dearest friends and family—so, you'll have to pay extra!"
Just as I was about to speak, a hoarse female voice rang out from the sky.
Jingliu's veil slowly drifted down with the wind, revealing her blood-red, unfocused eyes.
"Kid, getting distracted can kill you! Let this moonlight shine upon all rivers!"
The frost-covered moon shimmered, shining upon the sword's edge, and followed the crescent moon's sword light that enveloped the sky as it descended.
Lin Yuan listened to the other end of the call and pointed to the sky with one finger.
"Alright, since the general is so generous, I'll say it—"
He slightly raised his eyes, and the surrounding light instantly changed.
"How can the bright moon compete with the brilliance of the sun!"
.............
Chapter 228 The Clouds Disperse and the Rain Fades
The bright moon in the sky shattered, the clouds dispersed, and the wind and rain ceased.
"what happened?"
Jingliu's figure fell through the air; everything happened too fast.
She only remembered a flash of white light, the sword light shattering, and the bright moon trembling. Then... it seemed as if a great purple-gold sun had appeared in the sky.
The sun and moon clashed, and the frost-covered moonlight was instantly obscured.
The image of that purple-gold sun became even more deeply etched in her memory. In that instant, Jingliu seemed to feel a peace she hadn't felt in many years.
Inner demons, karmic obstacles, and all sorts of negative thoughts seemed to vanish without a trace under that light.
Even she herself felt an urge to rush toward the purple-gold sun—as if it were the liberation of all things, as if it were the final destination of all things.
In a daze, she felt someone stroking her face.
Jingliu snapped out of his daze and refocused his gaze.
Sure enough, a large hand was placed on her face, but not to caress her; rather, it was to press her down from the air.
Through the gaps between his fingers, Jingliu saw those handsome faces and bright eyes.
The sun that I had just vaguely seen was now reflected in those pupils.
Lin Yuan watched the red pupils flickering below, his mind filled with a myriad of thoughts.
His hands were covered in a face as smooth as flawless jade, but he only felt the coldness in his hands.
People often use the term "ice queen" to describe a beautiful woman who can only be admired from afar. Lin Yuan just wants to say that if you encounter a real ice queen, you're lucky if you don't freeze to death.
With a whooshing sonic boom, Lin Yuan, holding onto Jing Liu, plummeted from the sky to the ground in an instant.
The fairy was thrown directly to the ground, lying flat, with cracks constantly spreading in the ground beneath her.
Lin Yuan released his hand, and the high temperature and cold air condensed into water vapor on his hand. He then wiped his body with his hand.
Jingliu's pupils shifted slightly, and he suddenly began to chuckle softly.
"Hehehe... Hahaha..."
"Is your inner demon acting up?"
Lin Yuan immediately took two steps back to observe the situation.
"Very good, you're very good... Hmm!"
Jingliu's slightly pained voice came along with the twisting sounds of his body healing its injuries, but the scene looked somewhat gruesome.
"I have granted your request."
Gradually, she regained her composure and spoke slowly:
"Tell Jingyuan that when the time comes, I won't be absent. And you too..."
Her gaze was fixed on Lin Yuan:
"Kid, I'll remember you. I'll come looking for you after all this is over... Don't die. When that happens, I'll make sure you see the sword that can cut down the sun. It'll be either you or me! Hahaha—"
The white-haired woman's eyes were full of expectation, and her laughter echoed around her. Seeing this, Lin Yuan turned around and left without saying a word.
"Damn it, what am I going to do now that a crazy woman has her eye on me? Jingyuan, I have to make sure you get a good rip-off."
He walked away with a dark expression.
At this moment, the sky above the Industrial Development Bureau is crystal clear, and the stars shine brightly.
From beyond the heavens, the golden deity took in everything before vanishing in a flash.
"Oh."
Inside the Shence Palace, a soft laugh rang out—a mixture of admiration, delight, and a slight headache.
...........
On the other side, the escort team carrying Kafka boarded a starship, preparing to send the prisoner to Tabushi.
However, whether it was due to a wrong flight path, a disordered magnetic field, or the machinations of the Great Lord, the Starship was ultimately forced to dock at Changletian.
Seeing this, Fu Xuan closed his eyes and divined, but he only managed to get a hexagram that was predetermined by fate.
If Lin Yuan knew this, he would surely be amazed that the main storyline mastermind had once again exerted its power.
Fortunately, Changle Temple is not too far from Taibu Temple; it only takes a little walking to get there.
However, due to internal changes within the Bureau of Divination caused by the influence of the star core, Diviner Fu Xuan needs to first reorganize internal affairs and prepare for inquiries.
Before leaving, she made it clear to the train crew that someone would be arranged to meet and escort them later.
Watching the short fortune teller's departing figure, the train crew, after summarizing some intelligence, finally began their journey to Changletian.
As for Scott and the others? After Kafka's arrest, Lone Wolf's mission was considered successfully completed.
However, when the Hammerfall Squad discovered that the person had already fainted, they could only arrange for them to undergo medical examination and rescue.
Of course, as a formal employee of the company, these expenses can be reimbursed through the company's medical insurance.
"Oh~ the trip to Changletian, finally I can relax for a while!"
Feeling the everyday atmosphere of the city around me, the slightly weary March finally regained some vitality.
The capture of that Star Core Hunter had truly exhausted her. Both Kafka's Word of Power and the subsequent burst of white light left her with a lingering fatigue.
After buying some food from a snack stall to replenish their energy, the group crossed the archway and officially entered the Chang Le Tian Di Jie (World of Eternal Joy).
However, what they saw before them surprised them slightly.
"This...have we come to the wrong place? Could this be the Azure Immortal Ship?"
On the streets, one could see various company employees dressed in black and red uniforms walking around.
Some were sweeping the floor, some were distributing supplies, and others were maintaining order with the staff of the Land Balance Division.
Of course, there were also many Cloud Cavalry, including wounded soldiers who were withdrawn from the front lines, who were also placed here.
"Hmm, it seems that Luofu has a very close partnership with the company."
Walter rested his chin on his hand and pondered for a moment.
"Uncle Yang, the company has such a powerful influence here, I think it can rival the official forces in Changletian. That Scott... won't he come after us later...?"
He didn't finish his sentence in March, just chuckled.
However, March 7th was overthinking it. The reason there were so many people from the company here was because Lin Yuan had gathered all the company employees from the entire Immortal Boat here.
In addition, some image-building projects he demanded were what created this scene.
But since the Star Core Hunter was ultimately captured by the company, wouldn't Scott's side have won the final battle?
As a beautiful young woman, March 7th had no desire to bark like a dog in front of the Sichen Palace—how could she ever face anyone after that!
"Xing... if that guy comes looking for us, let's find somewhere to hide for a few days, and then leave without a trace when the train departs..."
Little Gray thought for a moment, then waved to March:
"It's alright. If he comes looking for us, I can order yours too! But you'll have to wash the coffee cups when we get back to the train."
Wow, you're so handsome!
March 7th's eyes lit up, but then became somewhat suspicious:
"I mean...you haven't awakened some strange attribute, have you?"
Hearing their words, Walter smiled knowingly:
"Don't worry, kids. No matter how powerful the company is, in Xianzhou they can only operate according to the rules of Luofu. Their every move is restricted, and they are much less free than we are."
"Then we can rest assured."
March 7th let out a long sigh and patted his chest.
"Let's wander around first. There seem to be quite a few wounded over there. Let's go see if we can help!"
............
Chapter 229 Chang Le
"Uncle, why are there so many wounded people here?"
"What uncle? In Luofu, I'm still considered a young man, okay!"
The experienced officer, dressed in the uniform of the Earth Balance Division, glanced at March 7.
“Young lady, don’t wander around here aimlessly. Things have been rather unsettled in Luofu lately. You outsiders have come at the wrong time.”
“Sir…” Walter stepped forward, displaying his eloquence.
"We are here on a mission entrusted by General Jingyuan. May I ask who these wounded soldiers are?"
