Seeing that everyone was staring at him, Zhou Xiao frowned slightly and said, "Why are you all looking at me? Do you think I'm having an affair with her?"
“...”
After Zhou Xiao said that, Kafka and Ren turned their gazes elsewhere.
"By the way, what exactly is your grudge against her?" Zhou Xiao asked Ren again.
"I don't want to talk about it..."
Blade said he had nothing to say about that crazy woman, Mirror Style...
"Tsk..." Zhou Xiao glanced at him but didn't press him further. Seeing him turn to look at Kafka beside him, he asked, "Where to next?"
“Hmm…” Kafka gave Zhou Xiao a look, gesturing for him to look at Ren: “Next… we’ll have to ask Ren.”
"You?" Zhou Xiao raised an eyebrow.
"Follow me..." Blade indicated that he knew the way well.
...
Just as Zhou Xiao, Kafka, and the others were following Ren to the next location, Jing Yuan in the Shence Mansion received some unexpected news.
"What? Yanqing is injured again? I told him to go out and relax..." Jingyuan frowned.
"Reporting to the General... Yanqing said he received a distress signal from a nearby judge, and then encountered that wanted criminal from last time..."
Listening to his subordinate's report, Jing Yuan sighed with a headache.
Little Yanqing, oh Little Yanqing...
Why are you so upset with Zhou Xiao from that train crew?
Despite having considerable strength... he insists on fighting those he can't beat...
Jing Yuan didn't know how to evaluate this young man, Yan Qing...
Stubborn...
That's really tough.
That's enough.
Let Yanqing get some rest...
Jing Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, showing no intention of standing up for his disciple. He gazed into the distance, lost in thought.
The power dynamics of the game are almost fully revealed...
And then... the real show begins.
...
Another dozen or so systems have been in operation.
Jingyuan's description of the main event seemed to be both the beginning and the end.
In the past ten hours or so, the crew of the Starry Sky Train first resolved the crisis at the Dan Ding Division, and then took a shortcut to get to the Dan Ding Division.
As for the Star Core Hunters, Zhou Xiao and his group, led by Ren, headed to a place called Lin Yuan Realm to wait for their prey to come to them.
As for Danheng... he's still on his way to meet up with the other three members of the train crew...
...
"We've finally arrived at the Pill Refining Division..."
After a battle, the train crew finally arrived at the Dan Ding Division. The Dan Ding Division was now under extremely tight security. Fu Xuan, the commander, had gathered a large number of Cloud Cavalry to suppress the traitors of the Medicine King's Secret Teachings.
When the group arrived at the Dan Ding Si's headquarters, they didn't immediately see Fu Xuan. Only after questioning the Cloud Cavalry did they learn that Fu Xuan had gone to the front lines to scout the enemy situation...
“In that case… it seems we can only wait here for a while.” Xingmei shrugged after hearing what Yunqijun said.
“Perfect timing…we’ve been walking all this way, it’s time to rest,” Ms. Forty said, continuing Xingmei’s words.
"Are you tired? You haven't done much along the way..." Xingmei said that the forty-dollar lady just hurried along the way and found a safe corner to cheer on the enemies she encountered.
"Cheering and cheering also takes a lot of effort..."
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
Just as Lady Forty and Star Girl were talking, the short Fu Xuan led a team of Cloud Cavalry towards them.
"I've kept you all waiting. I've uncovered the secrets of the Medicine King's teachings..." Fu Xuan said as soon as she saw the group. Her gaze swept over everyone present, and when she saw the woman with the forty-yuan bill, she raised an eyebrow:
Who is this?
"?" Xingmei noticed Fu Xuan's gaze was fixed on Lady Forty, so she took the initiative to introduce her: "Oh, her... she's Lady Forty, you've met her before, haven't you? During the capture of Kafka..."
"Oh, right, right..." Fu Xuan nodded, assuming the lady with the forty yuan was a member of the train crew, and continued, "I won't say any more, now... it's time for you to make your appearance."
"???"
"So you guys really don't treat us like human beings? We just rested for a little while and you're here again... Even if you were cattle or horses, you should at least let us catch our breath," Xingmei complained.
Although I had expected it, I was still speechless when the moment actually arrived.
"That's right... I still remember the first time I met Lady Yukong from your Immortal Ship. She said it was the Immortal Ship's internal affairs, so there was no need to trouble you all. But in the blink of an eye, good heavens... she's handing over all the hard and tiring tasks to us..." March 7th chimed in to Star Sister.
"Ahem..." Fu Xuan listened to Xingmei and March 7's complaints, strategically cleared his throat, and said with a slightly embarrassed expression, "This is all the General's fault... I didn't expect him to be like this..."
"However, everyone... this time we really need your help..."
"Hmm?" Xingmei became somewhat interested when she heard Fu Xuan's serious request for help: "Tell me, what is it this time?"
“I knew it…you wouldn’t refuse, everyone…please follow me.”
After Fu Xuan finished speaking, he led everyone to the front line.
A moment later, Xingmei saw the large furnace emitting smoke in the distance and sighed.
"So big..."
"So thick..."
"So round..."
"How magnificent!"
Listening to Xingmei's ignorant remarks, Fu Xuan introduced the alchemy furnace to her.
"This is where ancient alchemists developed their immortal cultivation methods. They built alchemical furnaces here, drawing upon the power of the Jianmu tree to transform their fantastical ideas into reality. Because of the ever-present smoke and mist, it was named Yunxia Zifu (Cloud and Mist Purple Mansion)..."
"Cloud and Mist Purple Mansion..." Xingmei murmured to herself, gazing at the large alchemy furnace in the distance, "What a sophisticated name..."
"Although the name is elegant..." Fu Xuan emphasized the word "elegant," as if correcting Xingmei's earlier comment about being pretentious:
"The name is elegant, but it's a deadly trap in military strategy. As long as the alchemy furnace keeps burning, surrounded by clouds and mist, we will be unable to move an inch..."
"The Medicine King's secret teachings have been to mix pills that induce demonic possession into various parts of this grotto-heaven containing alchemy furnaces... Unless they can hold their breath while marching, the Cloud Cavalry will collapse without a fight..."
"The fact that the Medicine King's secret disciples have chosen to reveal themselves now, abandoning a century of concealment, indicates that they are confident of victory. However, no matter how well-prepared they are, they are ultimately heading towards the Cloud Cavalry. And the existence and abilities of you are something the Medicine King's secret disciples are unaware of and unable to guard against..."
"Therefore, I would like to ask you all to help the Cloud Cavalry shut down those alchemy furnaces..."
Hearing Fu Xuan's request, Xing Mei stroked her chin and then asked, "Then the smoke that induces the demonic body is useless to us?"
