Star Railway: I'm developing the Star Railway mobile game at my company.

After reading this, you'll definitely go to sleep!

And so, the day of the 2.5 version update arrived.

Countless players entered the game precisely on time; some were spending money to acquire Feixiao, while others were watching the storyline. Everyone had their own things to do.

Then we move on to the main storyline.

The time at this moment is after the prison break incident.

[Speaking of which, when exactly does this martial arts ceremony begin? I've seen that Jingfeng warship floating in the sky for days now; when can I board it and take a look?]

Is this the lifestyle of immortals? The pace is so slow. My emotional center's expectation level is at an all-time high. No, I need to drink some cooling liquid to cool it down.

Excited tourists were discussing the martial arts ceremony, which suggests that the fairy boat had slowed down the pace of the ceremony.

The tourists then began discussing the competition arrangements for the martial arts ceremony, mentioning that the defending swordsman, who was supposedly the host, was just a teenager.

Yanqing, who was standing to the side, listened to the tourists' discussion with a look of emotion on her face.

[Martial Arts Ceremony, sigh...]

Ever since news of the unrest in the prison spread, Yanqing has been constantly worried.

Meanwhile, Xing had already come out of the prison. After all, Hu Lei had escaped, so there was no reason for her and Dan Heng to still be locked up inside.

The two sides exchanged some information, and Yanqing said that Bu Liren's attempt to break out of prison by using conspiracies and tricks was too strange and did not seem like something Bu Liren could come up with.

Those who have seen the preview are well aware that the scene of the Dragon Master personally admitting it is still vivid in their minds.

Although the three generals had already taken action, Yanqing still found it very troublesome after witnessing Bu Liren's disguise as a fox-person.

Therefore, Yanqing stated that he had reported to the general and relinquished his status as the defending swordsman.

For me, the safety of Luofu is the top priority right now. Before I can shoulder the honor of being the defending swordsman, I must first fulfill my duties as a Cloud Cavalry Guard.

The tourists coming and going all they wanted was to watch a spectacular sword fight. Anyone could participate; why did it have to be me?

The real battle isn't on the arena of the Racing Ship, it's here. If the fugitive isn't apprehended quickly, given Hu Lei's ruthless nature, he'll definitely cause chaos.

Seeing Yanqing say these words, one can't help but feel a sense of emotion.

"Yanqing, oh Yanqing, you're so young but already look so old..."

"He really made me cry to death!"

"These two versions of Yanqing have really increased my affection for her. When will you release a limited edition of Yanqing?"

"This growth is truly visible to the naked eye!"

As Yanqing expressed his determination to protect Luofu, a voice of affirmation suddenly came from the side.

Well said.

The scene shifts to a white fox with a high ponytail, arms crossed, sitting at a tea table – it is Feixiao.

Although he's not tall enough to reach the folding stool, this little kid from Luofu has a spirit that rivals even the warriors of Yaoqing.

This has nothing to do with height...

This remark served to lighten the mood and bring a smile to the audience's face.

"Haha, just how tall is this folding stool?"

"The baby is still a child, still growing."

"As we all know, the creatures raised by Jing Yuanyuan tend to grow to an exceptionally large size. Let's look forward to seeing Da Yanqing!"

At this moment, Fei Xiao was surrounded by all kinds of Luofu delicacies, saying that he wanted to make ample preparations before the hunt.

However, this was not only prepared by Feixiao for himself, but also by Yanqing.

Ever since you met the spy Bu Li, you've been restless, constantly running around and not eating or drinking. Hu Lei isn't someone you can defeat on an empty stomach.

Don't be too hasty. Give yourself a meal to calm down.

Listening to General Tianji's advice, Yanqing understood that there was no use in being anxious now; it was more important to eat first.

Meanwhile, inside the Shence Palace.

General Huaiyan, representing the consensus of the other two generals, has already taken over the command of the Six Departments of Luofu.

Upon hearing about the incident, Yun Li and San Yueqi rushed to find Huai Yan to find out what had happened.

Upon hearing that Xing and Danheng were safe in the prison, March 7th finally breathed a sigh of relief.

[Well, I'm not sure if I should say "thank you" given the current situation... but I'm relieved that Xing and Danheng are alright.]

Chapter 439 The pinnacle of martial arts, the number one person below the envoy.

At this moment, inside the Sichen Palace, Huaiyan and Yukong were discussing the arrangements for the future.

Although Feixiao had joined the wolf-hunting plan, Yukong was still somewhat uneasy, since the martial arts ceremony was scheduled to take place in three hours.

If Hu Lei were to infiltrate the Jingfeng ship, which is filled with ordinary spectators, it would truly be like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, causing chaos.

However, Luofu cannot postpone the martial arts ceremony, as this would be tantamount to saying that Luofu is not safe, which could easily cause panic, and the manpower and resources consumed would be unbearable.

Of course, there is another force that would agree to the postponement, and that is the mastermind behind the scenes.

For those behind the scenes, the fugitive was merely a pawn to disrupt the situation; what they truly desired was a Luofu where everyone was suspicious and insecure of one another.

This style reminds one of an old friend; it just goes to show that Huanlong is still putting in the effort.

Therefore, Huaiyan intends to maintain the status quo and continue the investigation in secret.

There was a reason why he called Yun Li and San Yueqi over.

Upon hearing this, March 7th was taken aback.

Could it be... that General Huaiyan wants me... to replace Yanqing... and defend the arena...?

Miss March is truly brilliant! That's exactly what I meant.

The audience was stunned by these words.

"Huh? Defending the arena on March 7th? Really?"

Huaiyan: It's time to use a surprise attack!

Fu Xuan: You're sending out these surprise attacks far too often. Do you think we in Luofu have no one else to rely on?

I thought it was Yun Li.

"After all, Yun Li is still the representative of the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship."

"So, you should make good use of your strength and not compare yourself to comedic characters, right?"

March 7th: You are the challenger!

Although it seems a bit unreliable, given his identity as the nameless guest of March 7th and his status as a disciple of the Cloud Cavalry Guard, it's not unreasonable for him to fight and defend the arena.

【Gentlemen, the martial arts ceremony cannot afford to fail. I entrust you with more than just victory or defeat on the arena; I also entrust the safety of the Competition Ship.】

【Yu Kong, tell them the next steps.】

The scene then shifts, and most people are unaware of what General Huaiyan has arranged at this moment.

Jing Yuan, Dan Heng, and Ling Sha arrived at the main hall of the Netherworld Prison, feeling a sense of familiarity with Jing Yuan's first meeting with Ren.

[The prison's discipline is inadequate; we are deeply grateful for the General's gracious presence.]

When facing the crows of the Ten Kings Division, Jing Yuan maintained a polite demeanor befitting someone of equal rank.

"Judge, you are too polite. The Cloud Cavalry charges into battle, while the Netherworld punishes the guilty. The Cloud Cavalry and the Netherworld are two sides of the same celestial vessel. It is my honor to serve the Ten Kings' Court."

After gaining a preliminary understanding of the situation in the Imprisonment, Jing Yuan didn't waste any time on pleasantries. Instead, he stated directly that he wanted to take the two people beside him into the Imprisonment to investigate.

How did Bu Liren, who orchestrated the prison break, learn about the area where Hu Lei was being held? And why did they happen to execute their plan so coincidentally, just before Yao Qing's envoy was about to escort him away...?

For a long time, this mastermind has disregarded the safety of Luofu and acted willfully. This time, Jingyuan has decided not to back down and to eradicate the other party completely.

Afterwards, Jing Yuan first investigated the corpses of the Bu Li people who were disguised as fox people and found residual drug scents among them. It was clear that some kind of drug was used to disguise the Bu Li people as fox people of the same origin.

The three then began an in-depth investigation. On the way, Ling Sha also saw the martial arts instructor who had been damaged by Hu Lei's attack. The terrifying wounds made him marvel at the power of Hu Lei.

Jingyuan then recounted how he followed his master to fight against Hulei seven hundred years ago.

Even after taking pills to suppress the fear of wolf poison, countless cloud riders were still unable to raise their hands to resist due to the ferocious aura.

If the former Sword Master hadn't used Frostblade to block Thunder's movements, the outcome would still be uncertain.

The audience was filled with admiration as they listened to Jingyuan's narration.

"Mirror Flow still exudes a strong sense of oppression in the story!"

"The pinnacle of martial arts, the pinnacle of humanity!"

"Judging from the preview footage, will the legendary mine catcher make another strong showing this time?"

"If he was this powerful seven hundred years ago, and so much time has passed now, I feel that Jingliu should be the number one person below the Commander, right?"

"Oh? You'd better be prepared to be torn apart by gravity!"

"Ignite the sea of ​​stars!"

"It's hard to say, the leap between a Fate Walker and a Commander is too great."

Listening to Jing Yuan's description of Hu Lei, Ling Sha was somewhat puzzled. If it was so dangerous, why not throw it into the blazing fire of the star to burn it? After all, the so-called immortality has its limits, which is why this situation has occurred.

As she spoke, Ling Sha sighed again, as if mocking herself.

[That's true. The people of Luofu have always been kind and compassionate. Even with the tumor parasitizing the Dan Ding Si, they couldn't bear to cut out flesh to treat the poison, but instead sent the physician who wanted to save him to the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship.]

This self-questioning and self-answering manner revealed Ling Sha's little temper, which made her quite adorable.

Jing Yuan, who was being sarcastic, finally managed a helpless smile, after all, it was indeed he who had exiled Ling Sha's master.

[It's clear Miss Ling Sha harbors resentment towards me. Jing Yuan bears undeniable responsibility for the resurgence of the Medicine King's secret technique. As for why that wretched creature Hu Lei is only imprisoned... I can offer some explanation.]

And so, the three of them walked along, with Jingyuan explaining the reasons behind it.

First, there were the fox-people who refused to be executed directly. Due to the long-standing enslavement of Hulei, the accumulated blood feud made the fox-people unwilling to let Hulei die quickly overnight.

As for why Hu Lei was imprisoned in Luofu instead of Yaoqing, which was dominated by fox people, the answer is the same as the biological weapon developed by the company the three encountered on the road.

The company uses Buli people to create biological weapons, and the fox people, who are very similar to Buli people in bloodline, might do the same.

In particular, some fox people, like Bu Liren, will uncontrollably fall into a madness called Moon Madness, but Bu Liren can control Moon Madness.

Why can Bu Liren control Yue Kuang? Can the fox spirits break this curse...?

Every person who asks a question does so with good intentions. However, all roads leading to disaster are paved with good intentions.

In contrast, for Yaoqing's fox people, Hulei was not only a monster, but also a subject of research.

He became a deadly poison, corrupting hearts without even realizing it.

Upon hearing this, the audience suddenly understood.

"I see. Well, an immortal research subject would be highly sought after, not just by fox people, but even outside."

"The road to crucian carp is paved by eels."

"Once Pandora's box is opened, it can easily spiral out of control."

"Isn't this how the Rebellion of Drinking Moon came about? It can be said that Jing Yuan expressed his feelings about it."

Danheng: Are you targeting me?

"The Immortal Boat Demons, the Fox-People Moon Rage, and the Bright-Bearing Proliferators—the three major races of the Immortal Boat also have their own problems."

"So it seems Feixiao's illness is this month's madness."

It was precisely because of the precedent of the Yinyue Rebellion that the Marshal chose to hand over Hulei to Luofu, both to quell the evil intentions of the Yaoqinghu people and to warn the Luofu Immortal Ship that had experienced the chaos.

This is a compromise, and a necessary step. The Immortal Boat Alliance is not a one-man show by the Immortal Boat people. Only through the alliance of the Fox People, the Bright Ones, and the Immortal Boat people can there be a future.

Chapter 440 In the Name of the Immortal Ship

Faced with Jingyuan's righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, Lingsha once again began to use her skills as a junior Yin-Yang Master.

[Ling Sha has learned her lesson. Did you also weigh my master's situation with a similar mindset, banishing her to the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship, only to watch the Medicine King's Secret Teachings revive there?]

The audience couldn't help but chuckle as they watched Ling Sha speak in such a soft and gentle tone, using the most sarcastic and ironic words.
