"Calm down, please calm down!"
With March 7th's intervention, Xingmei finally put down the Flame Spear. Seeing her staring at Kafka, she said, "If you try to take advantage of me again, you'll be in big trouble."
“Alright then.” Kafka sighed.
"Is there anything else you'd like to ask?"
"Hmm..." Xingmei pondered for a moment upon hearing this, then asked, "Why am I able to contain a star core?"
This is a question that Xingmei, the train crew, Black Tower, and others all want to figure out.
Hearing Xingmei's question, Kaffa paused for a moment, as if thinking:
"Well... naturally, it's because you're special. You were created specifically to contain the star core. Your body has been modified by the power of the Star God, so even if you come into contact with the star core, you won't be contaminated. Therefore... you are a unique existence."
"?"
Star Girl was somewhat surprised by Kafka's answer.
I...
Is it really that awesome?
Was it also modified by the power of the Star God?
Xingmei cleared her throat, still half-believing and half-doubting what Kafka said, fearing that Kafka would lie to her again, just like she had taken advantage of her earlier.
"What you're saying... I don't believe it at all."
"You don't believe me? But I'm telling the truth." Kafka indicated that she was telling the truth this time.
"No way! You're definitely making up lies to amuse yourself! Tell me now! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!" Xingmei declared that she would never fall for Kaffa's tricks again.
"Hmm..." Seeing Xingmei's disbelieving look, Kafka didn't explain further and began to speak:
"Okay, okay, because that star core was modified. The Black Tower did a lot of research on it before capturing it. It's the only star core in the multiverse that won't contaminate humanity."
"After the Black Tower lost interest, she forgot about it, but it was recorded in Screwgoom's database. When Silver Wolf tried to hack into Screwgoom, he found this data, and that's how Elio saw a new possibility for the future..."
"Hmph! I knew it! You were just lying to me!" Xingmei snorted twice, feeling that Kafka's next statement was obviously more reliable than the one above.
Star core...won't pollute human star cores?
Listening to Kafka's fabricated story, March 7th looked shocked.
She had never heard of such a thing before...
"You believe it?" Kafka asked, seeing Xingmei's smug look.
"Is this really true?" Xingmei asked.
"Fine, whatever makes you happy." Kafka looked at Xingmei, this silly girl, and didn't want to say anything more.
In fact, it is true that Xingmei was transformed by the power of the Star God, but the unpolluted star core discovered by the Black Tower later was just a fabrication by her.
Unfortunately... this time she clearly told the truth first, but Xingmei didn't believe her at all...
He's crippled.
They've completely fooled us; they can no longer distinguish the truth from the lies.
"Hmm... what time is it now?" Kafka felt the time was about right and asked the star girl in front of her again.
Upon hearing this, Xingmei checked the time and told it to Kafka.
"What trick are you planning to pull this time?" March 7th stared at Kafka with a cautious look.
"It should be about time, we should start."
boom--
As Kafka spoke, the withered giant tree in the distant sea of clouds suddenly seemed to be awakened, growing upwards at a visible speed. Its thick trunk supported countless vibrant branches, and greenish-yellow energy, like leaves, clung to the branches everywhere.
It is Jianmu.
The Jianmu tree that once granted the immortal ship the power of eternal life... has been reborn!
Such a huge commotion was visible to all the people on the Immortal Ship, no matter where they were, and they were all shocked by the scene.
"So big..."
"So long!"
"So thick!"
"How magnificent!"
Xingmei and March 7 were somewhat bewildered by the regrown Jianmu tree; they didn't know what had happened.
"This power... is most likely a star core." Not far away, Walter adjusted his glasses and gazed at the Jianmu tree amidst the distant sea of clouds, speaking slowly:
"Someone has infused the power of the star's core into the Jianmu tree..."
"Tsk...they haven't arrived yet." Kafka looked at Jianmu Rebirth and then glanced around, noticing that the people who were supposed to meet her hadn't arrived.
Ah Ren...did something happen to you?
Kafka frowned at first, but before she could come to any conclusion, the gate of the Tabuan in the distance suddenly broke into several pieces with a loud "bang".
"Damn it, I'm late again!"
As the dust settled, Zhou Xiao sheathed his longsword. He brushed the dust from his nose with his left hand, then looked at the entire heart of the Qiongguan formation. Behind him, the enthusiastic Yunqi soldier stood quietly like a dutiful wife.
"Oh... everyone's here."
In his field of vision, Zhou Xiao saw March 7th, Xingmei, Walter, and also... Kafka, who was suspended in mid-air and bound.
He slowly walked towards the center of the formation.
On the other side...
Zhou Xiao's forceful breaking down of the door naturally attracted the attention of everyone inside the Qiong Guan Formation. When they saw that the person who entered was the richly dressed Zhou Xiao, the train crew members all showed varying degrees of surprise.
"!!!"
"It's... Zhou Xiao!"
"It's Master..." Xingmei's face lit up with joy when she saw Zhou Xiao's figure: "Master! You've finally deigned to see us!"
As Zhou Xiao gradually approached the core of the Qiong Guan Formation, upon hearing Xing Mei's address of "old lady," he raised an eyebrow slightly and glanced at her, saying, "What old lady... I'm still young!"
"Zhou Xiao..." Walter greeted Zhou Xiao.
"Uncle Yang...long time no see." Zhou Xiao greeted him without any restraint.
Seeing that the person who had broken through the gates of the Taibu Temple and swaggered in was so familiar with the train crew, Qingque raised an eyebrow.
Goodness...
Whose subordinate is this?
So extravagant?
The gate to the Temple of the Gods... was just cut off like that?
How is this any different from an attack?
etc...
This face looks familiar, doesn't it?
Qingque touched her chin and squinted at Zhou Xiao's face. Suddenly, she recognized him, and her expression changed.
Isn't this... a wanted criminal?
She finally remembered where she had seen Zhou Xiao before...
A portrait on the wanted poster.
However, he was actually more handsome than in the portrait, which made her pause for a moment.
what do I do?
Seeing the wanted criminal right in front of him and so brazenly barging into the important celestial vessel, Taibu Si, Qingque, a member of Taibu Si, pondered this question.
Um...
Open the shop.
As long as this guy doesn't kill me...
Qingque pondered for only three seconds before drawing a conclusion.
