Chapter 42 The Hunt [OPEN END/The Hunt? The Hunt...]
When Crane Kite realized that the Star God was going to take him to outer space, he struggled.
He only knew about the deeds of the [Hunting] Star God Lan from books, and knew nothing about Him personally, so he had no idea why He did this.
Why take him away in front of everyone!
He doesn't even have a save file after playing the revival match!
Crane Kite swayed its waist and hips restlessly, intending to jump down.
On the bright side, he also has a [resurrection elixir] in his bag. By lowering his pain threshold, he could be smashed into a pile of flesh and then rebuilt to be resurrected.
It will scare NPCs and also decrease the favorability of the person you're trying to woo.
Even so, he didn't want to be taken away for no reason.
He hated people like that the most in his life.
Not long after he fell, Lan picked him up.
He had already put away his bow and arrows, and was embracing him with a gentle touch. His face, covered by a mask, revealed no emotion.
His voice remained calm, and his questions were spoken as if they were statements.
Why did you jump?
He Yuan was prepared to rehearse the martial arts ceremony, and said irritably, "Then why did you take me with you? We don't even know each other!"
If he could get to know the Star God of Hunting, why would he need to painstakingly grind for attributes? He could just ask the other party to give him a token.
"We know each other, and we're a loving couple."
Lan's tone was extremely confident.
Crane Kite: "...Huh?"
He pointed to himself. "Are you sure it's me?"
"Could it be that you have no sense of time, and the person you're looking for has already become a demon, and you don't remember his appearance very clearly, so you mistook me for him?"
Dating a star god... that sounds outrageous.
Even if he is a player, he has only ever aimed to become one of the Star God Envoys, since it's difficult for most people on the forum to even catch a glimpse of him.
As for that memory trial from before...
Since they themselves said it was all an illusion, He Yuan couldn't just go to the [Memory] Star God Fu Li and say, "I had a past with you, so shouldn't you give me some compensation?"
That sounds outrageous.
Players are willing to rummage through trash cans, but they are not willing to be unjust sycophants.
Unless the object being licked gives him a lot of attributes.
Therefore, Lan must have made a mistake.
"I won't mistake you." Lan shrank considerably, looking like a centaur of normal size.
His words still lacked emotion.
He Yuan rolled her eyes without any hesitation. "Well, you recognized me as your lover, and you love me, so you didn't ask for my opinion and just tied me up."
Today he's going to give this Hunting Star God, who plays with substitute literature, a piece of his own.
Looking at his thick eyebrows and big eyes, is he really into these kinds of things in private?
Lan realized she had done something wrong and quickly apologized in a humble voice: "I'm sorry."
Perhaps because of the mask, He always spoke in a muffled tone.
He Yuan never expected that the dignified Star God could be so used to lowering his status.
He thought only the [Joy] Star God would do that.
This left He Yuan speechless, unsure of what to say.
He sneered, "It's better to arrive at the right time than early. You came right after my match, so I'm the only one who has to suffer, and it won't affect the martial arts ceremony."
Lan: "..."
Feeling guilty, He didn't say anything.
Unexpectedly, He realized something was wrong and asked in an even more humble voice, "Then how do you intend to punish me?"
Crane Kite: "???"
He looked completely shocked.
No... Lan, you and your lover are having such wild games in private?
He Yuan asked in a daze, "How did I punish you before?"
Lan truthfully replied, "I have to serve you during your bath, warm your bed, and be a proper—"
"Shut up!"
...That's really fancy.
He Yuan couldn't help but sigh.
He felt that he was nothing special.
To be honest, as a player who does whatever he wants, he should have just agreed and then acted like a tyrant in the Immortal Ship.
But he really isn't. Even if this lie continues, He Yuan doesn't want to be entangled with the Star God.
His current power is insufficient. If any random star god were to take him away, wouldn't the rest of the plan be in complete chaos?
The Star God, in particular, has no concept of time. Just like him and Fu Li during the memory trial, the two of them were completely unaware of the passage of time while cultivating.
If it really takes that long, then Yingxing and the others will probably be long gone. They'll finally manage to find a few NPCs they like, get married, only to have the Star God ruin everything—
That's it!!!
So He Yuan saved a file.
He immediately said, "I'll punish you by giving me some of your power, and I want to be your commander."
Lan paused for a moment, then immediately took action, sharing all permissions directly.
Crane could see the attributes continuously increasing until they reached a maximum of 9999+, at which point they could not go any higher.
He clenched his hands and looked up to see Lan's face covered in a blanket.
The young man reached out and pulled off His mask.
It was a handsome face, with light blue eyes shrouded in a layer of delusion, concealing all tenderness and affection, leaving only an indifferent disregard for the equality of all beings.
Crane Kite shivered as the chill inside enveloped her.
He paused, then said, "Your lover shares the same name as me and even looks exactly like me? Are you sure you haven't forgotten?"
Asking these questions only after receiving power is quite shameless, but the player doesn't care; he just wants to extract more information.
Among the Star Gods, there is also a Star God named Mo Wang, the [End] Star God. Who knows, He Yuan might have obtained some kind of item and traveled through time to more than 5,000 years ago, where she fell in love with Di Gong, who was still human at the time.
Lan hugged him tighter, but He Yuan kicked her away.
"Yes, his name is He Yuan, and he is my lover."
"He told me that we would meet again in the future."
But he didn't say that He Yuan would have a boyfriend in the future, or that she would have several potential marriage partners, nor did he mention that he had married Fu Li or walked in the Milky Way with Aha.
The marks of the hunt continued to devour the marks of memory, and a scorching heat emanated from the back of the crane's neck.
These past few days, Yingxing has also liked to bite this spot, as if he's marking him.
Why does Lan like it too...?
He Yuan didn't understand, so she touched him and asked, "Why did you bite me here?"
Looking at his still bewildered lover, he kept the words he wanted to say to himself to himself.
"I am marking you."
"You? You've marked me?" Crane asked Him.
Words, like light willow catkins, drift in the wind, landing on the tip of the heart, stirring an irresistible itch within.
Lan didn't detect the doubt and displeasure in her voice and nodded in agreement.
Crane Kite immediately struck out with a palm.
"Did I give you permission? You've marked me without my consent, and now you want to be my lover?" He said bluntly, "I'm your lover, not your pampered canary. You do everything without asking my opinion, so you're not my lover."
Lan wanted to show He Yuan the mark left by Fu Li, but found that it had been completely erased by Him.
He could only obediently bow his head and listen to the reprimand.
"I'll leave the punishment for now; I need to go back first."
Like a heartless scumbag, He Yuan patted Lan's face and said, "Take me back quickly."
Everyone else is getting impatient.
Lan couldn't hold back her anger any longer and exclaimed, "Are you going to go find that old man? Are you going to continue living with him, dating him, and marrying him?"
The fire has already spread this far, there's no point in putting it out.
He Yuan nodded decisively and explained to Him.
“Look, the last time we were in a relationship was 5,500 years ago. So much time has passed since then. Even for people from the Immortal Ship, at least eight generations have passed.”
"Do I have to wait for you for eight generations? Can't we date? According to the law, if a person disappears for more than ten years, they are basically declared dead. I'm a widow now, so why can't I date someone else?"
Anyway, none of this was his fault.
Lan was speechless after hearing him, and started to throw a tantrum, "But you just accepted my power and admitted that you are my lover."
He Yuan continued her deception: "Can't I have many lovers at the same time?"
"You want many more?!" Lan's tone was no longer calm. "How could you—"
He searched for He Yuan for many years and remained chaste for him, but He Yuan said that he wanted to have many lovers!
Crane lay in His arms and asked lazily, "Did I ask you to do this?"
Generally speaking, you wouldn't ask the other party to do that.
Unless one's obsession is exceptionally strong.
But He Yuan didn't care. He felt that if he didn't like someone, he could just find another one. He didn't care about his ex.
Lan thought about it carefully and realized that there really wasn't any.
He fell silent again.
"Alright, now that you know, hurry up and take me back."
Crane Kite casually opened the jade tablet, intending to let her know that everything was alright.
The next second, the jade tablet was crushed, and the scattered fragments were swallowed by the darkness.
"I won't take you back."
Lan brought back the mask, placed He Yuan on her back, and ropes appeared out of nowhere to restrain her.
"Are you going to imprison me?" He Yuan hugged His waist from behind, pressing her cheek against the cold armor.
The hands began to move downwards.
Lan simply said, "I will take you on the hunt."
He will take the crane and kite to all kinds of places, let them see all kinds of scenery, and fulfill all their needs.
But He would never allow Crane to like, or even glance at, anyone else.
He knew it was wrong, but he did it anyway.
Before the fledgling grows up and can truly fly, he is imprisoned in the palm of one's hand.
He Yuan chuckled lightly, "Hunting? But I don't even have a decent weapon. How do you expect me to go hunting with you?"
Lan silently handed him a bow and arrow and found a planet for him to practice on.
He helped the young man adjust his posture and told him the key.
In a daze, it felt as if I had returned to 5,500 years ago, a time that is now far, far away.
At that time, the crane and kite also helped Him adjust His posture.
The arrow shot out like a meteor, bringing tranquility back to the revitalized planet.
"This is... a hunting expedition?"
He Yuan smiled and said, "If that's the case, then I'd be very willing."
"But shouldn't you give more?"
"My dearest lover, my dearest Lan, my dearest...hunting star god?"
Five thousand five hundred years later, the Jade Palace Immortal Ship observed the traces of the Emperor Bow Master.
Unlike the centaurs described in the records, this one had an indistinct, enormous creature on its back.
Resembling both bird and human, it occasionally spreads its enormous wings, capable of completely enveloping the divine body of the Emperor Bow Master.
And the wind blades whipped up by those wings are the nemesis of the wing-makers.
Unable to withstand the wind blades, they were swept away, their wings torn apart, and plunged into endless darkness.
After observing the traces with the Cloud-Gazing Mirror, the diviner of the Jade Palace Immortal Ship asked a question.
"Emperor Bow Master, is the one within you a new Star God?"
"He was also a [hunter].
[OPEN END/Hunting? Hunting!]
"So why did you grow wings?" Lan, now in human form and enveloped by the crane kite, watched the young man move around on her body and shifted her bound wrists.
He tried to straighten his back and control the rhythm, but the youth grabbed his swallowed root tightly.
"I said, don't move." Crane Kite held Him down, using the force to move up and down, and His pure white wings closed slightly, leaving only a sliver of light.
"Why……"
He Yuan licked her lips, opened her mouth to reveal her small, rosy lips, and said, "Because I'm going to eat you."
—Actually, it's attribute point overflow conversion. I think this decoration is both practical and beautiful.
However, don't think he doesn't know that Lan actually really likes the wings that he inexplicably grew.
Especially when the breasts are thick.
Asking a question you already know the answer to.
“You’re eating me right now, eating me…very deeply.”
As Ru Lan said, the small, bright red mouth did indeed swallow him.
Only a small part of the root is visible.
-----------------------
Author's Note: The next chapter will return to the main storyline! (I've added a little something; if you still don't understand, please let me know, and I'll get up and revise it [Let me see][Let me see][Let me see])
A-Yuan was having quite a bit of fun playing with the "darkening value" for the first time.
OE has an open ending; in any case, A-Yuan can't be imprisoned. He's the kind of person who will keep using others until they willingly kneel down (?).
Finally, a few random thoughts!
When I started writing this book, I never intended it to be this long; I just wanted to include all those men in it.
However, if I write from the timeline backwards, I can't write well about the gaps in the middle, and the later parts will be squeezed together with the main storyline, making it even more chaotic than it is now.
That's why we chose this period; whether we look back, forward, or now, it's all wonderful!
The problem is that it's so exciting that a bunch of characters still haven't appeared...
I will definitely write about Onfaros, even if it takes seven or eight hundred thousand words. [Sunglasses]
Hopefully, by the time I write this, the scholars will have thoroughly researched Onpharos, so I can find more information [lop-eared rabbit head].
Goodnight everyone, sorry to keep you waiting. I'll be sending out red envelopes tomorrow!
