"Alright, the Star Core Hunter has been captured, Taibus has taken over, and Miss Tingyun has left!"

What do we do next?

She turned to look at Walter, her eyes shining with anticipation.

After a moment of contemplation, Walter spoke:

"Interrogating Kafka will take some time as the Tabushi prepares to thoroughly examine the formation."

You can take advantage of this time to go and have a look around.

There are many things worth seeing on the Luofu Immortal Boat; consider it a good time for rest and recuperation.

Before he could finish speaking, March 7th had already jumped up on the spot, raising his fists above his head:

"Yay! Finally, we can move around freely!"

She grabbed Xing's left hand and Qiye's right hand, excitedly announcing.

"Let's go shopping!"

I was craving food the whole way past that food street, and now I can finally have a proper meal!

Xing was being pulled forward by her, his face still bearing the composed air of an emperor:

"The Empress is right."

Since my ascension to the throne, I have not yet officially toured my own territory. Today, I will begin with Star Harbor.

"My beloved concubine, what would you like to eat? I'll have the Empress go and line up."

“I want everything. But I’ll pay on March 7th,” Qiye replied matter-of-factly.

Without turning his head, March 7th retorted:

"Why should I pay! Didn't you just make tens of millions selling the Light Cone? You should be treating us!"

Just as Qiye was about to retort, Walter's voice came from behind.

He stood there, watching the three figures bickering and fighting.

He shook his head helplessly, but a smile appeared on his lips:

"It's great to be young. Remember to keep your phone accessible; I'll message you later."

He watched the three figures disappear around the corner of Star Harbor.

Then he turned and walked in another direction, thinking to himself:

I wonder if there will be large robots in Luofu?

Meanwhile, on the other side of Star Harbor.

Tingyun carried Diting through two alleys and stopped in a corner without surveillance cameras.

She placed Diting on the ground, and the mechanical dog tilted its head back and wagged its tail at her, seemingly waiting for new commands.

She crouched down and patted Di Ting's head:

"You can go back now. We don't need you for the rest of the journey."

Upon hearing the command, Di Ting ran towards the central hub of the Star Chariot Sea.

Tingyun straightened up and watched Diting's figure disappear at the end of the alley.

The smile on his face remained as gentle and harmless as ever.

But a hint of amusedness lingered in his eyes.

The white-haired girl named Yuan Jing, although a civil advisor in the Ministry of Justice, did not behave like an ordinary person.

More importantly, she has white hair, her surname is Yuan Jing, and her given name reversed is Jing Yuan.

The train crew had just jokingly called her "General Jingyuan's illegitimate daughter."

She neither admitted nor denied it, but simply used the vague wording of a seasoned official to steer the conversation away from the topic.

That's interesting in itself.

An unacknowledged illegitimate daughter was placed in the Bureau of Apostles as an insignificant civil advisor.

Such things are not uncommon in the officialdom of Xianzhou.

The way those powerful families deal with their bloodlines is always to save face while also providing a place for them to go.

The place like the Imperial Apostles' Office is just right; it's neither an obscure government office nor too conspicuous.

It would be perfect to place the daughter of a general in an awkward position.

Moreover, she had just seen the back view of Yuan Jing protecting Kafka as they left.

She felt that his temperament was very similar to the Jingyuan she remembered.

Thinking of this, the smile on her lips deepened.

A daughter who was never mentioned to outsiders but was secretly placed in the office of the Tabushi.

This kind of unspoken care is more intriguing than affection that is publicly proclaimed.

Of course, these are all just her guesses.

Before taking action, she needed to confirm whether Yuan Jing was truly an illegitimate daughter.

Or was it just a joke made casually by the train crew?

If it's the former, then Jingyuan has a weakness.

If it's the latter, then it's not a loss either.

At least she could observe more closely during the tracking process to see who this white-haired girl who looked familiar was.

She resumed her usual gentle and harmless smile.

Then he took a step and quietly followed in the direction Jing Yuan had left.

[Please give me a 5-star review! I'm aiming for an 8 out of 10!]

So please, dear customers, help me out and give me a five-star review!

Chapter 107 was discovered

Jing Yuan escorted Kafka through the cargo corridor of Huixing Port, and when they reached a secluded alley, they suddenly stopped.

She didn't turn around, but a slight smile appeared on her lips.

Having lived for so long, her perception has been honed to an unparalleled level.

Ever since she left the container pile, that faint, lingering presence had been following her for quite some time.

When she was a general, no one ever dared to follow her in Luofu territory.

Now, dressed as a young girl, she escorts prisoners and encounters this amusing situation.

"Interesting, really interesting."

She murmured to herself, seemingly with genuine joy.

Kafka, who was walking ahead, stopped when she heard the footsteps behind her suddenly cease. She turned around, looked at her, and asked:

Why did it stop?

"nothing."

Jingyuan suppressed his smile and started walking again to catch up with Kafka.

The two continued walking forward.

Tingyun, hiding in the shadow of the containers behind, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She had just thought she had been discovered.

But now it seems I was just overthinking things.

Given her ability to conceal herself, unless General Jing Yuan of Luofu personally intervenes, it will be difficult to defeat her.

Otherwise, how could a little girl have seen through it?

How much real ability can a civil advisor in the Grand Divination Bureau have?

With this in mind, she took a step forward, ready to continue her pursuit.

They discovered that the person was missing.

The alley was deserted.

The two figures that were just walking one after the other in her field of vision vanished without a trace.

Even the sound of footsteps seemed to have been erased by something.

Several possibilities flashed through Tingyun's mind.

She was ambushed? Her pursuers discovered she was being followed?

A voice came from behind her.

"Miss Tingyun, what are you doing? Why are you following me?"

The voice was languid, with a hint of relaxed laughter.

The tone of her voice was exactly the same as the white-haired girl she had heard at the Star Harbor dock.

Tingyun's pupils contracted sharply, but as the Great Lord of Annihilation...

She switched from shock to composure in half a second and turned around.

Jing Yuan stood in front of her, arms crossed.

A half-smile played on the girl's excessively delicate face.

It's like scrutinizing a fox that has accidentally stumbled into a trap.

Kafka stood not far behind Jingyuan, her hands still encased in sealing locks.

But he wore a relaxed smile, as if he were watching a good show.

It was as if this unexpected little episode was more interesting than her being escorted to the Tabuan that night.

"Oh my! Miss Yuan Jing, you really startled me!"

Tingyun placed her hand on her chest, her expression of shock switching smoothly and effortlessly.

"My heart almost jumped out of my chest!"

Your sudden appearance from behind someone is too much of a scare for the ferryman of the Tianbo Bureau.

What if I can't get out of bed tomorrow? Who will arrange my benefactors' schedule?

Jing Yuan didn't speak, but kept that ambiguous smile on his face as he continued to look at Ting Yun.

It's as if it's saying, keep making things up.

Tingyun felt a chill run down her spine under her gaze and realized that she wouldn't be able to get away with just acting cute this time.

Quickly put on a pitiful and aggrieved expression.

"Oh dear, what a miserable life I have!"

Actually, it's just that... I just heard them talking about illegitimate daughters and children of officials in Star Harbor.

The young woman began to have doubts.

Miss Yuanjing, as you know, our Tianbo Company receives and sees off guests every day, and we rely on our excellent information network.

But your identity is something I can't match up with even after searching through all the names in my head.

That would be dereliction of duty!

So I wanted to sneak over and see who you are, no, who your daughter is.

It was purely professional instinct! There was absolutely no malicious intent involved.

She took another half step forward, her fox ears twitching slightly, and asked gossipily.

"So, Miss Yuanjing, are you really the general's daughter?"

I promise I won't tell anyone, I was just asking.
