The Three Flower Goddess, who suddenly barged in, frowned as soon as she boarded the spaceship, muttering with disdain, "Oh dear, this spaceship is too dilapidated and outdated! At this speed, how long will it take to get back to the Stone King Kingdom?" While complaining, she secretly pondered how to speed up the journey.
After a moment's thought, the Three Flower Goddess turned to look at Gu Lingchuan and the other person and suggested, "How about I take you to board a faster spaceship?" Although her tone sounded like a question, she had actually already contacted the Red Dragon through special means and made all the arrangements.
At this moment, Gu Lingchuan and Bai Ling actually had some complaints about the slow-moving spaceship.
After all, everyone wanted to reach their destination as soon as possible, so when they heard the Three Flower Goddess's suggestion, they nodded in agreement almost without hesitation.
Besides, what can they do even if they disagree? It seems that the decision to replace the spaceship isn't up to them.
Not long after, a new type of spaceship with a smooth, rounded shape, resembling a water droplet, quickly flew to the side of the spaceship that Gu Lingchuan and the others were traveling on.
The hatch slowly opened, and the red dragon poked its head out, looking at the Three Flower Goddess with a hint of surprise, and exclaimed, "Oh ho, so that's why you ran away without a word! So you ended up here!"
Then, Honglong turned his gaze to Gu Lingchuan and the other person standing to the side and asked curiously, "And who are these two?" Actually, he had seen this spaceship before, but he hadn't paid much attention to it at the time.
Seeing that the Three Flower Goddess had come to find these two people in person, he couldn't help but feel suspicious.
Faced with the Red Dragon's question, the Three Flower Goddess casually replied, "Oh, those two? One is called T9696, and the other is called T9887." After saying that, she stepped into the teardrop-shaped spaceship.
After listening to the introduction by the Three Flower Goddess, Gu Lingchuan's face showed an undisguised embarrassment.
Before this, he did mention to Lady Sanhua that he and Bai Ling were named t9696 and 9887 respectively. However, he had clearly told her their real names later! Why is Lady Sanhua still using those two code names when introducing them to outsiders?
Honglong, standing to the side, stared intently at Gu Lingchuan and Bai Ling, his eyes revealing a hint of suspicion.
Despite having some doubts about the identities of these two people, since the Three Flower Goddess has already said so, then let's just accept it as such.
After all, the authenticity of their identities is not of much concern to the Red Dragon.
Then, with a smile on her face, the Goddess Sanhua led Gu Lingchuan and Bai Ling into the uniquely shaped spaceship.
With a muffled thud, the hatch slowly closed, and the entire spaceship, like an arrow released from a bow, accelerated forward, disappearing from its previous location in the blink of an eye.
This astonishing speed took Gu Lingchuan by surprise. Instinctively, he quickly expanded his mental domain, completely enveloping the entire spaceship.
He then focused his attention on trying to decipher all the information about the spaceship.
However, this information was so numerous and complex that it flooded his mind like a tidal wave.
For a moment, Gu Lingchuan felt dizzy and overwhelmed.
Given his current mental and physical condition, it is an impossible task for him to decipher such a massive amount of information all at once; he can only proceed slowly.
The Goddess Sanhua walked lightly to Bai Ling, her gaze fixed on her, and said softly, "Your ability is extremely similar to mine, or even exactly the same. I suppose it was your guidance that allowed me to escape from the mouth of that Kalon zombie before?"
These words were the conclusion reached by the Three Flower Goddess after conducting an investigation, mainly because Wuyun Gaixue told him the general situation.
Bai Ling nodded slightly, her gaze passing over the Three Flower Goddess and landing on Gu Lingchuan's back not far away. She said slowly, "Most of the credit should go to Lingchuan." Her words revealed her trust and reliance on the man beside her.
And so, the human and the cat began their conversation, each taking turns speaking.
They talked freely about their special abilities, past experiences, and the crises they faced together, and the atmosphere gradually became harmonious and warm.
——
At this moment, Gu Lingxiao, after going through countless hardships, finally set foot on the territory belonging to the Shi Kui Kingdom.
Although this is not the main star of the Stone Kingdom, many significant differences can already be perceived from the scene before us.
Looking around, the architectural styles of other regions mostly lean towards a modern, technological style, with skyscrapers rising from the ground and glass curtain walls reflecting the dazzling sunlight; intelligent transportation systems operate in an orderly manner in the air and on the ground, with vehicles shuttling by like shooting stars; and a dazzling array of high-tech facilities make people feel as if they are in a future world.
However, when one turns their gaze to the Kingdom of Shi Kui, a completely different picture emerges.
The architecture here is full of rich ancient charm, with pavilions and towers arranged in a well-organized manner, and exquisite carved beams and painted rafters.
The ancient streets meander and twist, the bluestone pavement polished smooth and shiny by the passage of time.
Compared to the advanced technological products around them, these buildings seem somewhat out of place, as if products of two different eras have been abruptly intertwined.
"Wangcai, is this your Shi Kui Kingdom?" Gu Lingxiao pulled Wangcai out of the room.
As soon as Wangcai saw this familiar scenery, it became extremely excited. It wagged its tail happily, moving as fast as a whirlwind.
"Yes! I haven't been back for so long. I really don't know how my family is doing now." As Wangcai spoke, he sniffed the familiar scent in the air, his eyes revealing deep longing.
"Where do you live?" Gu Lingxiao asked with great interest.
Upon hearing this, Wangcai suddenly perked up its ears warily, a hint of doubt flashing in its eyes: "Why are you asking this?" Clearly, Wangcai's reaction this time was unusually swift, perhaps indicating its extreme concern for its family and fear that others might harm them.
"Haha! I'm going to visit you now! Maybe when I walk in, even your family will be speechless and won't be able to tell us apart! After all, we look exactly alike!"
As Gu Lingxiao spoke, he deliberately touched his face, which was exactly like Wangcai's, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a half-smile.
His appearance was both cunning and mysterious, making him hard to fathom.
It was as if he was secretly plotting something interesting.
