Therefore, Fu Xuan volunteered to use the Taibu Si's magic array to investigate the Interstellar Peace Company and those Bu Li people. However, unfortunately, things were indeed as the Interstellar Peace Company and Zhu Ming's envoy said.
Indeed, it was the Interstellar Peace Company's transport ship that was attacked by the Bu Li people while sailing in the channel near the Luofu Immortal Ship. Zhu Ming's ship happened to appear near the Interstellar Peace Company's transport ship and helped the Interstellar Peace Company repel the Bu Li people. All of this was indeed a coincidence.
If it was just a coincidence, then the doubt would no longer be a doubt. Fu Xuan could only let it go. If he were to pursue the matter further, it would only create a rift in the relationship between the Interstellar Peace Company and the Luofu Immortal Ship.
Just to be on the safe side, Fu Xuan reminded the Yunqi Army to separate and detain the Buli bandits and keep them under strict guard. After doing all this, Fu Xuan planned to return to Changletian to meet up with Sanyueqi and Zhigengniao. But at this moment, she saw someone familiar but who shouldn't be there.
Star Core Hunter, Kafka, and Silver Wolf and a blonde girl.
Was that blonde girl a new recruit to the Star Core Hunters? What exactly did Kafka want to do on the Immortal Ship? After learning that the Star Core Hunters weren't the culprits behind the Star Core chaos, Fu Xuan was somewhat confused about their purpose here, but she still rushed to Kafka's side immediately and questioned, "Hey, Star...you three, stop right there."
"Oh, I was wondering who was calling us. It's Lord Taibu. It's been a long time!" Upon hearing Fu Xuan's sweet call, Kafka turned around, swaying her alluring waist. Kafka's voice wasn't loud, but it possessed a captivating charm that was irresistible.
"Stop being so glib, Kafka. And the one next to you must be Silver Wolf, right? And her, I'm not sure if she's one of your new criminal accomplices, but since you're here on the Luofu Immortal Ship, don't even think about causing trouble on it. The Nether Prison is where you belong."
Hearing Fu Xuan say this, Kafka was not nervous. Instead, she spread her hands to indicate that she was not a threat. Then she walked up to Fu Xuan with a smile and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Lord Taibu should be worried about the attack on the Interstellar Peace Company. Oh, I remember you called those robbers Bu Liren."
Fu Xuan's eyes turned cold instantly. The last time Qing Que had seen Fu Xuan with such an expression was during the Star Core Chaos. Fu Xuan raised his sword finger, seemingly ready to strike, and demanded, "Star Core Hunter Kafka, don't think that the Luo Fu Immortal Ship didn't hold you accountable for the trouble you caused during the Star Core Chaos. I suggest you come with me to the Nether Prison obediently, so you can avoid some physical pain."
"Tsk, I didn't expect Fu Xuan to be so short, but he has such a big temper."
“You…” Fu Xuan found it hard to bear being mocked by a silver wolf that was almost as tall as him.
"Alright, Silver Wolf, although the Grand Diviner is not tall, his abilities are outstanding. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become the head of the Grand Diviner's Office, right, Miss Qingque?"
"Ah, umm."
"Qingque!"
"Hehe, Lord Taibu, we've heard that Luofu is about to hold a martial arts ceremony, and we only..."
"We're just here for a visit. I'm sure the Luofu Immortal Ship, which welcomes friends from afar, won't refuse the hospitality of three weak women like us." Kafka remained confident and harmless, while Silver Wolf continued playing his game console. The blonde girl's eyes, however, kept darting between Kafka and Fu Xuan.
"Hmph, if you are weak women, then there would be no women in the world. Tell me, what exactly are you plotting?"
"Oh dear, it seems that the Grand Diviner is really worried about us. Our last exchange was so pleasant. But since that's the case, I do have a few pieces of information. I wonder if I can use these pieces of information to win the Grand Diviner's temporary trust in us, at least during the martial arts ceremony."
"I know all the news about Luofu. Do you need to tell me? What temporary trust? As long as you pay your fines and spend a few hundred years in the Netherworld Prison, maybe the Luofu Immortal Ship will be willing to consider you innocent."
"It seems a bit of a pity, but I'm still willing to give you a free piece of information, which is that your concerns are correct."
"Wh-what? What do you mean? I don't know what you're talking about."
"Whether I know or not, I don't know. But I do know that the Grand Diviner definitely knows. Also, you seem to be investigating that planet, right? I know the culprit."
"Cangxiu Twenty-Three".
"Yes, yes, how about that? Aren't I generous? Of course, I have more information. If the Grand Diviner is willing to let us observe the martial arts ceremony, I will definitely tell you everything I know."
"I can accept that, but you must be under my constant surveillance."
"Oh, I didn't expect the Grand Diviner to be this kind of person. Even when resting and bathing, we have to be together. I don't mind at all."
"Who wants to shower with you? I'm saying that when you're out and about, don't do these kinds of things in front of me."
"Of course, as long as the Grand Diviner trusts us. By the way, Xing is here too, right? Let's go find her together."
"Don't pretend you know me so well!"
Volume 1: 535 - The Unexpected Appearance of the Wisdom Clan
“Dragonborn who have left the nest, heed the call of the waves and return with us to the elders.”
Although separating from the young girl was not Lanmei's own idea, the young girl wanted to explore Luofu Fairy Boat more than soaking in the hot spring. In the end, Lanmei chose to go to the hot spring with Robin and March 7, while the young girl went off on her own.
Liuyunjian is the most famous hot spring area in Luofu Xianzhou. The reason why the hot springs here are popular is not only because the temperature is suitable and rich in minerals, but also because it is said that the hot springs in Liuyunjian have a good conditioning and maintenance function for the skin, and can also eliminate fatigue completely. Although this has not been confirmed, the number of people coming here to soak in the hot springs has been increasing since the hot springs opened.
Whether the hot springs here truly have the effect of conditioning and maintaining the skin, or whether it's just a psychological effect, remains unknown.
However, Robin and March 7th did indeed come to Liuyunjian to soak in the hot springs after hearing about their various effects. But to the surprise of Lanmei, March 7th, and Robin, they encountered several uninvited guests as soon as they arrived at the entrance of Liuyunjian and heard this cryptic statement.
Lanmei, who had been chatting with March 7 and the robin with a smile, immediately turned cold. She looked at the three long-eared creatures that suddenly blocked her way without any emotion. Although she didn't know what they wanted from her, judging from their posture and aura, this didn't seem to be a problem that could be solved by simple communication.
However, Lanmei didn't expect their reaction. Under the astonished gazes of the three Ming Clan members, Lanmei, after confirming that they couldn't harm her at all, ignored them and walked straight through them. Sanyueqi slapped her forehead, feeling that she had seen the situation somewhere before. That's right, she had seen a similar scene when she was exploring other planets.
In fact, it wasn't Lan Mei who couldn't hold back first, but rather the three members of the Chiming Clan. Lan Mei's actions were practically rubbing their dignity into the ground.
"Hey, we were kindly invited to the Vidyadhara Clan on the elder's instructions, and you just left without even asking any questions? Do you know what you're doing?"
No matter how much she called out, Lanmei walked to the entrance of Liuyunjian as if she hadn't heard her. Although Sanyueqi didn't understand what was going on, she was prepared to rush up and give the other side a couple of punches if a fight broke out. Zhigengniao took out her phone and was recording a video, ready to summon the Cloud Cavalry at any time.
Lanmei completely ignored the three Ming Clan members standing in front of her. When March 7th and Robin arrived at the entrance of Liuyun Stream, Lanmei still ignored the three people, turned around, grabbed March 7th and Robin, and walked into Liuyun Stream.
Since it was not yet dusk, there were not many people in Liuyun Ravine. The entire hot spring pool looked quite spacious, and the surface of the pool was covered with a mother-of-pearl-colored mist. Since Lanmei and her two companions were soaking together, they chose the hot spring pool furthest from the entrance.
Stepping onto the soft carpet, Lanmei quickly stood in front of the wardrobe. The Luanxiang Heji outfit suited Lanmei very well, but even if she liked it very much, it was time to take it off.
Lanmei untied the light veil draped over her shoulders, and with a slight shake, her fair shoulders were immediately revealed from beneath it. Underneath the veil was a dignified and elegant gown composed of multiple layers of embroidered silk garments. How magnificent was the dress? For example, each layer of silk garment in the "Luan Xiang He Ji" gown used different embroidery techniques and cutting methods, so the overall dress did not look bulky due to the accumulation of fabric.
The method of removing the Luanxiang Heji garment is also very simple. You only need to unbutton the buttons on the side and back to take off the entire garment. Lanmei then took off her ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress). Lanmei walked to the edge of the hot spring and stretched out her foot to test the water temperature. After finding that the temperature was just right, Lanmei then submerged her entire body under the water.
March 7th and Robin's Sakura Meteor and Forest Breeze will be a little more troublesome, but in her previous life as a singer, Robin has already mastered the skill of changing clothes quickly, so Robin's speed is a few points faster than March 7th's, and in the end they also arrived at the bath.
Since Lanmei had already tested the water temperature for them, March 7th and Robin only washed their bodies with the hot spring water before entering the hot spring. While Robin and March 7th were still getting used to the water temperature, Lanmei raised her arm and let the gathered water droplets slide down her warm skin into the hot spring, leaving a shiny watermark on her body.
"Those three people must be from the Vidyadhara clan, right? Lan, do you know those people from earlier?" March 7th was curious about what had just happened.
"I don't know them. To be honest, this is the first time I've met them."
"She acted so arrogantly and said such strange things on our first meeting. Anyone would be angry, right? But she did mention the Dragonborn, and they are the Wisdom Clan. They've been looking for you. Maybe you really are a Wisdom Clan member, Miss Lan."
"I don't know anything about races like the Wisdom Clan, the Immortal Boatmen, or the Step-Department Clan, but the look in her eyes just now was full of offense. And I don't know if you guys noticed, but those three people were actually carrying a very subtle malice."
"A very subtle malice? This is inside Luofu, after all. What are they planning to do? We are guests of Luofu, after all. If they do something like this, Jingyuan certainly won't let them get away with it."
Regarding this matter, Robin also conducted some investigation after arriving in Luofu. After March 7th finished speaking, Robin said, "Initially, the Immortal Ship was established by the Immortal Ship People and the Fox People. Later, the Ming Clan joined in. Over several thousand years, they jointly built the entire Immortal Ship. However, as you know, things won't be so peaceful once you reach this level."
"Hey, Jianfu, why are we waiting here? It's clearly that woman who's arrogant. I already said we should just capture her and take her back. Why did we have to listen to Hongchen and invite her to Lin Yuan Realm?" The red-haired, pointy-eared woman glanced disdainfully at Liu Yunjian and kicked a small pebble at her feet.
"If you two want to be captured by the Cloud Cavalry, I don't mind. Also, didn't you notice? The little one beside that woman isn't here. According to the elder's plan, we must bring both of them with us when Elder [Mu Yue Tui Sheng] arrives. We're just testing her abilities now. Of course, it would be even better if we could bring back this woman's blood sample."
The black-haired, pointed-eared man known as Jianfu remained remarkably calm. He glanced at Hongchen and reminded her not to disrupt the elder's plan. Sure enough, upon hearing that the elder was about to undergo the "Moonlight Transformation," Hongchen obediently quieted down, though this silence only lasted a few seconds.
"Hmph, if you ask me, Jianfu, you're just a coward. If you had Taoran's guts, we wouldn't have to go through all this trouble. If you ask me, we should just knock you out with a stick and take you back. Blood samples, suspected dragon offspring, as long as we get you back to Lin Yuan Realm, everything will be fine."
"I suggest you don't do that. This is a busy area. If you cause any trouble, the Cloud Cavalry will arrest you without hesitation. Also, don't alert them. And we haven't made contact with that little guy yet. Of course, if you're so willing to get your hands dirty, you can be in charge of the contact tonight."
Ling Lanmei, March 7th, and the Robin didn't expect that, despite
They stayed in Liuyun Ravine for almost two hours, and the few members of the Chiming Clan were still there. Lanmei was annoyed by their persistent attitude, and Hongchen and Jianfu were also annoyed by Lanmei's attitude that she didn't want to listen to their requests at all.
Just as Lanmei was about to clash with these Ming tribesmen, Xing, Danheng, and Yanqing arrived just in time.
“Hongchen Longwei, Elder Jianfu, Tinghua and the elder, what are you three doing here?” Yanqing immediately recognized the three as two elders of the Chiming Clan and the Chiming Clan guards responsible for protecting the elders.
"So it's Yanqing, the brave guards, the pioneers, and Brother Danheng. Are you here to soak in the hot springs too?" Although Hongchen wanted to ask if their coincidental appearance was also an attempt to interfere with the internal affairs of the Chiming Clan, he dared not say much in front of Yanqing for fear of exposing his purpose. However, he did take a second look at Danheng.
"Soaking in hot springs? No, we're here to see March 7th and Robin. As representatives of the Starry Sky Train and world-renowned singers, the General has decided to meet them." This was a lie. In reality, General Huaiyan wanted to see the young girl and Lanmei with his own eyes, so Yanqing's purpose in coming here was to take them there.
As for why General Huaiyan wanted to see it for himself, it was probably because Jingyuan had told him about the scene Fu Xuan had foreseen. General Huaiyan's reaction was similar to Jingyuan's; indeed, he could only know what it was by seeing it for himself.
"In that case, the Grand Elder wishes to invite Miss Lan to visit our Chiming Clan. After all, no one would believe she isn't a member of the Chiming Clan. I'm here to convey this message, but since General Shence is busy, I won't bother you any longer. I hope we can meet soon."
Danheng wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he had a feeling that Jianfu was referring to him when they met soon afterward. After the three members of the Chiming Clan left, Yanqing and Xing still hadn't seen Xiaoguang. They asked curiously, "Hey, where's Xiaoguang?"
"We've separated for now. Xiaoguang doesn't like hot springs, so she's been playing around in Jinren Alley by herself. Now, well, I don't know where she's gone. Speaking of which, didn't we see General Jingyuan at dinner before? Could it be..."
"Yes, it's that General Jingyuan wants to take them to see General Huaiyan. Ah, nothing else. General Huaiyan is also very curious, but he'll just take a look and won't do anything else."
Yanqing hurriedly explained to Lanmei that he had told the Chiming Clan that the general wanted to meet with them because he didn't want the Chiming Clan to get involved. After all, it concerned the secrets of the young girl and Lanmei, and the fewer people who knew, the better. Lanmei agreed with this approach, and Sanyueqi also nodded. She could completely accept this reason.
"So, what have you found out over there at Interstellar Peace Corporation?"
Hearing March 7 ask this question, Star proudly put his hands on his hips and said, "I had a fight with our old buddy, you remember, March, Scott, an employee of the Interstellar Peace Corporation."
"Oh, that filial son? I remember him, I remember him. How did things go?"
"The Luo Fu Immortal Ship has seized the goods of the Interstellar Peace Company. According to the rules, the Luo Fu Immortal Ship should naturally inspect the goods of the Interstellar Peace Company. However, Scott does not allow the Immortal Ship to inspect them. Before we arrived, he had already been arguing with Sister Xi Kui about the rules for an hour."
"Ah, Scott is the kind of person who does that. If only he could explain things clearly. So what did you do in the end?"
"Of course, we persuaded them with reason. At first, Scott tried to circumvent the inspection by using intellectual property protection laws, but I defeated him by signing a confidentiality agreement that both parties agreed to. However, Scott still stubbornly believed that the inspection was likely to damage these prototype machines and cause business disruption, so he did not allow us to inspect them."
“Although the inspection may indeed cause damage, the Immortal Ship itself has a partnership with the Bo Shi Society, and in any case, the Luo Fu Immortal Ship is more than capable of compensating for these things.” March 7th expressed his incomprehension.
"Yes, of course. Tianbosi's sister immediately emphasized this, that is, in case of any damage during the inspection, Tianbosi is willing to compensate for all losses. This move is almost a sure thing. It's just a pity that you didn't see it in March. Scott's face turned green at the time."
"I also mentioned that I know people from the Genius Club. Since they were willing to bring up the Erudite Society, I brought up the Genius Club. Actually, by this point, Scott's mental defenses had basically crumbled. Then I used the incident of the Step-Off attack."
"As we all know, the Immortal Ship people and the Bu Li people are sworn enemies. Yet, on the eve of the Starry Sky Martial Arts Ceremony, the Star Peace Company's ship was attacked by the Bu Li people on the Immortal Ship's route. There must be something fishy about this. Your unwillingness to let us investigate proves this point."
“If they don’t let us inspect the cargo, we’ll have to audit everyone on the ship, and how long that will take is beyond my control. Scott has completely lost hope.”
"Haha, he really deserved it."

Volume 1: 536 - Is this a vegetable market?
"Danheng, what do you think the elders of the Chiming Clan want from Lan?"
"I'm sorry, March, I don't know the answer to this question either, but I imagine that the reason the Chiming Clan did this is partly because they received instructions from General Jingyuan." If the Chiming Clan elders wanted to welcome back their clansmen, then the Chiming Clan would definitely have reported this matter to the Earth Balance Division and the Divine Strategy Bureau. Of course, if they didn't, then it would be difficult to guess what the Chiming Clan was thinking.
“The general did not issue any such order. Moreover, when he learned that Xiao Guang and Miss Lan were about to arrive at the Luofu Immortal Ship, the general specifically reminded the people of the Six Kingdoms not to contact you casually. I think the most likely reason is that the general was worried that your appearance might cause unnecessary misunderstandings.” As someone who had always been by the general's side, Yan Qing thought what he said made a lot of sense.
"So, these elders of the Vidyad clan acted on their own? Perhaps what they said is true: Lan and Xiaoguang are indeed from another branch of dragon descendants, and the Vidyad clan has a way to help them regain their identities?"
March 7th felt the whole thing had become very clear, but the robin had a different opinion.
"Assuming that Xiaoguang and Lan are indeed another dragonborn, the actions of the Chiming Clan elders clearly exceeded General Shence's authority by contacting Xiaoguang and the others in private. In addition, I have heard some news before. If I am not mistaken, the relationships among the members of the Chiming Clan are no longer what they used to be."
Hearing them say that, Xing and March 7 stared at Dan Heng with wide eyes, as if asking him if what the robin said was true or false. Dan Heng had been on the train for quite some time, and he couldn't be sure if what the robin said was true or false, so he just shook his head slightly.
Xing, still unwilling to give up, asked, "Then can Danheng tell whether Lan and Xiaoguang are dragon descendants or not?"
"The Vidyadhara clan has its own special tools for testing bloodlines, and I can't judge whether what they say is true or false just by sight."
"In short, if the people of the Ming Clan come to you privately, Miss Lan, please do not agree to their requests. During the martial arts ceremony, the general will have many things to deal with. These things are intricately intertwined, and any one of them will have far-reaching consequences. At least before the martial arts ceremony ends, the general should not be burdened with any more things."
"Well, yes."
Lanmei nodded slightly. She could roughly guess why Yanqing did this. The higher a person's position, the more complicated their interpersonal relationships are. Some people are friends today, but may become enemies in the next second. Even some small things can completely destroy a person. However, Lanmei was very curious about the malice emanating from those Ming clans.
But since Yanqing had said so, Lanmei had no intention of dealing with those Chiming tribes, and now she had even less intention. Besides, she hadn't seen Younu for almost four hours since she decided to go to the hot springs, and Lanmei missed her terribly.
"Thank you for your understanding, Miss Lan. However, if the people of the Ming Clan make any unreasonable demands or if you find them difficult to handle, please feel free to tell me. Yanqing will help you resolve the issue."
"Hmm." Actually, it didn't necessarily have to be Yanqing; she could handle it herself, Lanmei thought to herself.
"So, should we find Xiao Guang next, and then go to the Shence Mansion to see General Jingyuan and General Huaiyan?"
"Yes, General Jingyuan and General Huaiyan are still waiting for us at the Shence Mansion."
"Are we going too?" March 7th pointed to herself and Robin. This time, without Yanqing's intervention, Xing nodded naturally and said, "General Huaiyan also wants to meet the people from our Starry Sky Train, so we want to go together too. But the problem is..."
"Where can we find Hikari, right? But neither Arashi nor Hikari have cell phones. Oh, Hikari has the Sintendo Nwitch that Black Tower gave her, but that game console doesn't have a calling function. If we search everywhere, who knows how long it will take to find Hikari."
"Why don't we talk to General Jingyuan and General Huaiyan? Anyway, Xiaoguang won't leave the Immortal Ship, so it doesn't matter if we meet a day earlier or a day later."
Xing's suggestion was indeed feasible. After all, there was still some time before the martial arts ceremony, and postponing it a little while would not be a problem if the young girl could not be found. However, Yanqing adhered to the idea of finishing today's work today. If it was really impossible to find the young girl quickly, Yanqing planned to go and search one place at a time by himself.
"Lan, do you have any way to find Xiaoguang?"
Lanmei shook her head at the robin, who asked with some confusion, "Then how will you find each other if you get separated?"
"Xiaoguang will appear when it's time to eat."
The answer, which sounded like a lame joke, left the people present speechless. They hadn't expected Lanmei to use such a method. But it was indeed the case. Given the little girl's appetite and various abilities, a little girl would definitely spawn in the restaurant during mealtimes.
Of course, roadside food stalls will also spawn randomly, depending on luck. Delicious food will increase the chance of a young girl spawning, and if you add cosmically rare meat and supernova-level cooking skills to the dish, a young girl will spawn next to the dish with 100% certainty.
However, it's impossible to actually wait until mealtime to bring the young girl over. Putting aside Jingyuan and Huaiyan's arrangements, Feixiao hasn't arrived yet. When it's mealtime, the young girl won't leave the table until she's full, so bringing her over then would be a big problem.
Yanqing gained a deeper understanding of Jingyuan's usual approach to official duties; no wonder the general preferred to plan carefully before acting. However, Lanmei was not a cold-blooded person. She whispered a few words in the robin's ear, causing the robin's ears to turn red. Only after receiving confirmation did Lanmei speak.
"Since it's just a meeting, it's okay if Xiaoguang isn't there. I know most about Xiaoguang's situation, and you can think of Xiaoguang and me as roughly the same kind of people. If it's just a meeting to ask a few questions, it's fine if only I go."
Hearing Lanmei say this, Yanqing thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Since Miss Lan has said so, then I'll trouble Miss Lan and Xing to go to the Shence Mansion together."
Meanwhile, on the other side, after parting ways with Feixiao, Jiaoqiu and Moze, following the plan they had previously discussed with Feixiao, first strolled around the streets for a few hours before meeting General Shence.
Normally, whether openly or privately, as the doctor and shadow guard accompanying the Yaoqing Immortal Ship, and having come to the Luofu Immortal Ship on the orders of the Marshal, their presence here is perfectly aboveboard. It is precisely because of this that Jiaoqiu feels that Moze is being overly nervous.
The two walked together, but Makawa was slightly behind Jiaoqiu and kept a certain distance from her. If you looked closely, you could see that the swinging amplitude of Makawa's left and right hands was completely different. Although his right hand was also swinging back and forth, it was still close to his thigh.
Jiaoqiu knew that this was an instinct that Moze had developed in the Shadow Guards, and Feixiao had even allowed Moze to assassinate him. So no matter where he was, Moze always maintained this posture. Moreover, when passing through intersections or noticing blind spots, Moze would pay more attention, and he would even take a second look at pedestrians who seemed a little strange.
