Chapter 105 Yalilo VI: "The Immortal Ship Soars, the Cloud Riders are Always Victorious."...
When He Yuan woke up, she met Ryan's gaze.
The man stared intently at He Yuan, his gaze lingering on the young man's flushed face.
If we ignore what happened last night, it's simply a normal reaction to the excessive heating.
However, this was not the case, and Crane Kite did not notice.
He simply felt that it was probably a problem with the star's core.
The power of destruction sounds scorching, and as a creation of destruction, the cancer of all worlds, which troubles many, naturally also possesses the characteristics of destruction.
He Yuan plans to complete the sealing of the star core today.
But before that, he has two things to do.
First, he wants to have a serious talk with the Great Guardian.
All the disasters on Yalilo VI originated from the star core. So, once the star core is sealed, these disasters will naturally be resolved. If not eliminated, they will at least not be as difficult to withstand as they are today, and the climate will also improve.
Moreover, with this matter of helping to seal the star core, He Yuan can make more requests.
Providing assistance is not the same as selfless aid.
Compared to the methods of the Interstellar Peace Corporation, the Immortal Boat Alliance is much more moderate.
After all, they don't have the time or energy to send employees to each planet to take control. "Hunting" has always been the goal of the Immortal Ship, and everything else is just going with the flow.
He Yuan had no intention of becoming an unsung hero.
It's one thing if it's just at home (the Immortal Ship), but the Great Guardian's attitude yesterday wasn't exactly friendly, so He Yuan certainly wouldn't do things for nothing.
Secondly, Crane Kite needs to settle Ryan in.
Such a powerful talent for stealth is a real waste not to use; he plans to keep him by his side and teach him.
Hopefully, he can become the next Landau.
That way, the next time we come to inspect the work, things should go much more smoothly.
After washing up, He Yuan put on the custom-made clothes from Guangyunxiu and went out.
This outfit blends the styles of Xianzhou and the company, and it would be more appropriate to wear it when discussing business outside.
It also fits Belloberg's style quite well...
In short, after He Yuan went out, she successfully blended into the crowd by dressing in the right clothes.
But in terms of appearance, he is still the most eye-catching one.
Moreover, Ryan, who was following behind, was also good-looking, which sparked a lot of discussion.
Crane Kite quickly walked to Kripper Castle, and seeing that there was no one around at the High Guardian's place, she said directly, "You made a wish to the Star Core."
The High Guardian frowned and looked at Ryan behind Crane Kite. "I hope that only the two of us know about this."
He Yuan nodded and told Ryan to leave.
"Of course, for the sake of public opinion, the fewer people who know about this, the better."
After all, when it comes to expenses, the Immortal Boat Alliance would prefer a stable Yalilo VI rather than one plagued by internal and external troubles.
The Great Guardian looked very upset when his secret was exposed.
On the day the wish was made to the Star Core, a blizzard descended without warning. The monsters of the Rift Realm and the Destruction Legion were indeed hindered by the blizzard, but in contrast, the entire Beloborg was plunged into endless cold, losing spring, summer and autumn, leaving only a frigid winter.
Heating devices can provide the nutrients needed for crop growth, and seeds can adapt to the environment through generations of breeding, but the star core... has never been solved.
When the Great Guardian learned of this, he could only conceal the news about the Star Core and would never reveal it until a solution was found.
“Once the Star Core is resolved, the blizzard and the Destruction Legion will gradually dissipate, and at that point, Beloberg will be able to develop the corresponding equipment on his own,” Crane said.
Exporting weapons is complicated, and I won't go into the procedures, but just know that by the time the approval is granted, the current Great Guardian will probably have been replaced.
The observation and exchange period on a timescale for the Xianzhou people...
They had considered the time it would take to adjust to each other, but that wasn't enough.
Having learned their lesson in this matter, the Xianzhou Alliance simply stated: They want the latest technological advancements?
Sure, go ahead and buy it at the market price.
There have been instances in the past where finished products from the manufacturing company were sold to other companies for hacking.
Even between the surfaces of two aggregates and the air, there is still friction.
"Do you have a way to solve the problem of the Star Core?" The Great Guardian's gaze was piercing, but He Yuan was not intimidated in the slightest.
He said, "It can't be completely solved, but it can be sealed, or I can take it away and put it into an active planet."
Perfectly, the planet is full of abundant power; destruction and abundance are locked in a fierce battle, leaving no time to wreak havoc on anything else.
...It doesn't seem like that will work.
Seven hundred years later, the Great Lord Huanlong, who was the Destroyer, was able to use the Jianmu tree to make his own body.
The revitalization of a planet can be considered a kind of bountiful miracle, and there is no absolute opposition between the star gods.
He Yuan paused for a moment, then said, "I cannot guarantee the latter."
The Great Guardian didn't ask what it meant to revitalize a planet; she simply said, "Leave the star core behind."
For now, sealing it is the best solution.
With the star core as a breakthrough point, things became much easier afterward.
“I will lead the small team I brought to be stationed at the border, and another team will take turns in Beloborg to teach martial arts.”
He Yuan said in advance, "But I'll say something bad beforehand: the physique of the Immortal Ship people is different from that of ordinary people. The Belober people will most likely not be able to reach the level of the Immortal Ship people, unless they embark on a certain destiny."
The Great Guardian naturally understands.
She simply felt that, according to Igor, the celestial ships had soared for seven thousand years, constantly fighting against different opponents, so their training methods were likely much better than Belloberg's.
The planet, named Yalilo VI, was originally a traveling planet.
Without developing science and technology or building education, simply implementing good tourism measures will attract a large number of wealthy people to come for vacations and generate revenue.
Compared to them, the battle-hardened Xianzhou people are certainly good teachers.
...
"Then, let's proceed according to this plan for the next year."
"I have no objection."
...
As Crane Kite left Cripper Castle, she saw Ryan.
He squeezed the man's hard arm and asked with a smile, "Do you have the courage to go to the front lines with me? I won't protect you or give you any special treatment."
I've finally come across an unknown nurturing character, so of course I have to raise it!
Ryan did not disappoint him, and immediately nodded and followed him to the front lines.
As for Belloberg's situation, three adjutants are enough.
They had covered most of the important points, and what remained were some minor details. The Great Guardian also had his own matters to attend to, so the two tacitly avoided meeting again.
While helping to clear out the remaining Destruction Legion at the front lines and occasionally returning to Beloborg to handle some food, He Yuan was also writing reports.
Regarding the star core, he also reported the results of his experiments.
The Celestial Alliance hunts in abundance, but the potential enemies in the galaxy cannot be ignored.
Today, the star core is just thrown into Yalilo VI. Who knows if it will come to the Celestial Ship tomorrow?
Moreover, the enemy that the Immortal Ship faces is definitely not just a small star core.
...
As He Yuan's life on Yalilo VI gradually settled down, she thought about going to see the things Igor left behind.
There was a museum in the administrative district, and He Yuan went in and looked around a few times.
Igor has a separate space for display, which contains his personal belongings and samples of some of the items he brought back.
Even the flesh... was made into a specimen and put in.
When He Yuan saw it, her eyes twitched.
If people from Bu Li saw that the flesh was stored like this, I wonder what they would think.
He thought about it for a moment, then took a picture and showed it to Jingyuan.
He Yuan: [How about we show it to Bu Liren in the Imprisonment next time?]
Jing Yuan: [The people of Winter City have rather unusual hobbies.]
He Yuan explained the whole story to him, and Jing Yuan suddenly understood.
Jingyuan: [I understand.]
Jingyuan: [Just like any of Xiaoyuan's belongings, I can't bear to throw them away; I want to preserve them carefully.]
He Yuan rubbed her blushing face.
Honestly! Why are you suddenly saying these things!
Sometimes I even feel embarrassed...
Jing Yuan looked at He Yuan, who had fallen silent on the other side, and smiled.
Lan, who was standing to the side, looked over and asked hesitantly, "Does he like this?"
Jing Yuan suppressed his slight upturned lips. "No, it depends on the situation."
He couldn't understand why the Emperor Bow Master had approached him, saying he wanted to learn how to get along with Crane and Kite so he could better please them.
The reason given was—
"He was willing to stay with you for a hundred years, so you must have some extraordinary qualities."
Jing Yuan: "..."
Jingyuan: "Actually, adults should just be themselves. If Xiaoyuan doesn't like something, he usually chooses to speak his mind directly, and adults just need to go along with it."
Lan said bluntly, "But I've noticed that you sometimes don't go along with him either."
Why is it that when He Yuan goes too far, He Yuan scolds and beats him and wants to separate from him, but Jing Yuan doesn't?
Jing Yuan fell silent again.
He couldn't help but wonder, the Star Gods receive information from the outside world at any time, but can choose to watch it, could it be related to his and Xiao Yuan's affair...?
It's terrifying to think about; Xiao Yuan definitely wouldn't like it.
But he couldn't tell He Yuan about this conjecture.
Knowing that the Star Gods have their eyes on them, Jing Yuan's every word and action is under the watchful eyes of several Star Gods. Any small movement he makes will be immediately noticed.
Jingyuan felt his hair stand on end and could only scratch the chin of the cat in his arms to relieve his anxiety.
No... This absolutely cannot happen. Xiao Yuan must find out about this!
No one likes having their every word and action watched, even if it's done in the name of love.
Crane Kite needs a private space, not to become like Truman, an actor on a stage, oblivious to everything else.
Judging from Lan's words, she was even spying on things during that incident...
So what about Yingxing and Danfeng?
Jingyuan couldn't help but think about it.
When he realized that he had too many things on his mind, he immediately stopped thinking.
That's all in the past; what matters is the present and the future.
Jingyuan answered Lan's question without changing his expression, "Because of the legitimacy of the reasons, just liking and loving is not enough to do anything that crosses the line. Doing so will only make the other person doubt whether your love exists."
"How can you call it love if you don't even care about your lover's feelings?"
The Emperor Bow's initial actions were a complete mistake; every single one of them stepped on Crane Kite's landmines.
Lan nodded silently and wrote down the sentence.
"But I've seen people say that a little bit of resistance can be refreshing."
Jingyuan couldn't help but ask, "Do you really understand Xiaoyuan?"
He Yuan is someone who hates unexpected events that are detrimental to her.
If an unexpected event benefits him, he will gladly accept it; if it harms him, he will try his best to change it—people are the same way.
Rebellion… He Yuan didn’t want anyone who would rebel against him; he wanted a lover who would occasionally grab him and be as obedient as a kitten.
Or rather, a sense of control.
Jing Yuan began to doubt whether the Star God in front of him could really learn anything.
Whether Lan can learn it or not, Aha doesn't know, but Aha does know that Nanuk has been hanging around A Yuan for several days, following her everywhere!
In a corner where Aha couldn't see, that brat Nanuk had been sneaking meals countless times! And he even managed to make A-Yuan beam with joy!
Aha angrily planned to find an avatar to sneak in as well, but Ayumi wouldn't touch the mask, so he couldn't get inside at all.
The shackles that bound the other star gods have now come to bind Him!
Aha stomped his feet in anger, just in time to catch a glimpse of Jingyuan's thoughts.
Since everyone is ahead of Aha, then Aha will make you all return to your original positions!
So, on a peaceful night in the camp, He Yuan, who should have been fast asleep, suddenly woke up and immediately saw the hand on her chest.
An arm lay across his back as the moon retreated, preventing him from closing his arms, and he felt a sticky, damp sensation behind him.
He was all too familiar with this feeling.
Who is it? Who can make him fall into a deep sleep, let him indulge in dreams, and then molest him?
He Yuan tried to calm her breathing, gripped the person tightly, and threw them to the ground, then turned on the gas lamp.
It's Ryan's face.
“Ryan?” He Yuan frowned. “Why did you do this?”
Wasn't he good enough to Ryan?
Ryan seemed surprised that he had woken up, and was visibly stunned for a moment before saying, "I... sir, I like you so much!"
He Yuan slapped him without hesitation, "Your liking is taking advantage of me in the middle of the night to molest me?"
Even though they didn't get inside and there was no substantial progress, everything that happened still made He Yuan extremely angry.
That's all for tonight, but what about tomorrow night? And the days to come?
Who knows, he might end up in jail any day!
He Yuan said with a stern face, "I don't want to hear your arguments anymore. You stay in the tent tonight, and come with me to see Lang Dao first thing tomorrow morning. I'll transfer you to the other side."
Ryan looked as if he'd been struck by lightning.
"Ah Yuan... I've finally managed to see you, please don't send me away..."
The crane-like bird pulled up its ears.
Finally? And you still call him "Ah Yuan"?
This person is clearly someone important.
Furthermore, the name doesn't match the appearance, which makes sense.
He Yuan pinched his chin. "Who are you? What was our relationship before?"
When Ryan realized his pleas were ineffective, he finally said, "My name is Nanook. We used to be—we were—"
He seemed somewhat embarrassed to speak.
He Yuan patted his face impatiently, "Speak quickly!"
Nanuk could only say, "It's a relationship of being kept and being kept."
The Aryfend system was an unremarkable galaxy; everything was thriving before the insect plague.
Nanuk was a poor gladiator who, after a victory, was cleansed and brought before Crane.
They said that this was His Highness the Prince of the Empire, and it was an honor for him to serve by his side.
really.
The same is true now.
In today's terms, the relationship back then was indeed similar to being kept by a sugar daddy.
Nanuk never had a legal identity and could only be considered a mistress kept in the palace. Every day, besides training, he would wait for He Yuan to summon him.
Those days were very difficult to endure.
Even now, Nanuk would do anything to get close to him, no matter how difficult the situation has become.
To reduce the number of competitors, he also sent his men to keep those hateful locusts occupied.
There are not too many methods of reproduction. If He were here, most of the star gods here would not be able to lower themselves as much as He.
Among most of the Star Gods today, very few have been able to overcome that mental barrier.
When He Yuan heard the words "sugar baby," her mind went blank for a moment.
What kind of relationship is this?! How could he do something like this?!
As she was thinking, He Yuan glanced at Nanuk and suddenly felt that this relationship was... kind of interesting.
If we were to go back in time... He Yuan would most likely have done the same thing...
Ahem, let's get back to the main topic.
"Regardless of our past relationship, I have no connection with you now, nor do I have any memories of you. What you did was indecent!"
Nanuk lowered his head and remained silent, only saying "I'm sorry."
He Yuan sneered: "Feeling apologetic after being discovered?"
But he could see that the man was secretly pleased with himself as he did it.
Seriously, I'm speechless. How come all these star gods are so unreasonable!
He Yuan is truly numb.
He suddenly remembered how the pharmacist had taken advantage of the situation to enter, but had given himself away inside the house.
If the Star God is omniscient and omnipotent, then where is he?
Is his whereabouts and every move he makes being observed?
He was like Truman in the movie, becoming the subject of public scrutiny in a situation where everything was unknown.
This feeling... is absolutely awful!
He Yuan kicked Nanuk, "Were you all watching me the whole time?"
His expression was perfectly normal; he appeared quite calm.
Nanuk hesitated for a moment, then, remembering his own reprimand, simply said, "We can all see you, but whether we see you or not is up to us."
He Yuan closed her eyes and waved her hand.
It's hard to say what he's feeling right now.
What a stupid game! If you're going to create a Star God, just make him an NPC who gives out rewards.
Making it a romanceable relationship turned it into a forced 21+ love affair, which angered players.
He Yuan quickly typed out a bunch of complaints and sent them over; the system immediately went online to process them.
[Dear player, based on your request, we've introduced a [Star God-Free Mode]. Enabling this mode will prevent you from passively triggering Star God-related storylines during gameplay.]
That voice and tone sound so smug...
But Crane and Kite really need this.
If he could switch it on and off at any time, he could date the Star Goddess whenever he wanted, and wouldn't see them if he didn't.
That's wonderful.
Distance makes the heart grow fonder, and just thinking about doing this made Nanook, who had just been standing there, start to look handsome.
He Yuan glanced at the real time and decided to work harder to handle things here before returning to the Immortal Ship to save her game and log off.
I have several meetings tomorrow... I don't want to go...
He Yuan frowned and pushed Nanuk to the other side of the tent to continue recovering his strength.
Incidentally, He also activated the Starless God Mode.
Kripper, who had rushed over, paused and looked at Aha, who had suddenly appeared in front of him.
Did you do this?
Aha didn't try to hide it, admitting, "Hehehe, Aha hasn't gotten close to Ayuan yet, so none of you are allowed to get close to Ayuan!"
Cripper had no choice but to watch Crane Kite's actions secretly, just like before.
But I can't watch it anymore.
Aha's cheerful voice echoed throughout the Milky Way—
"Hehehe—Ah Yuan knows about the deeds of you perverts!"
He hates you! He doesn't like you looking at him!
Aha, who had just colluded with Nanuk a few days ago, puffed out his chest and said, "When it comes to understanding, no one understands A-Yuan better than Aha, who has already come to A-Yuan's real world and is friends with A-Yuan!"
He knew, of course, that A Yuan didn't like it, so A Ha only touched He Yuan's lips lightly once.
Even if Nanuk wanted to say something, He Ah-ha could still argue against it!
Aha laughed heartily as he watched Nanuk being kicked out and blocked by He Yuan.
Nanuk's face darkened. "Aha, what good will this do you?"
Don't forget, Aha is also a blocked Star God.
Aha didn't care at all, "It's no good for Aha, but it's bad for you all, and it'll be fun to watch!"
"So Aha has to do this!"
Aha, the god of joy, is said to be one of the oldest god-gods. He once climbed the World Tree and learned the true nature of this world.
No one can fathom His thoughts. Just like sometimes, many things are inexplicable, but people still feel they've found something to enjoy.
Nanuk glared at him resentfully and left without saying a word.
He thought that by avoiding the sight of the Star God, He could have a good start with Crane and Iris.
In hindsight, it was a mistake from the very beginning.
Nanuk, don't think with the old mindset, look at the present.
...
Time slipped by slowly as I made videos and wrote reports, and finally the day came when I could leave.
Before announcing the collaboration, the Great Guardian frankly admitted the dangers of the Star Core, only concealing his wish, and emphasized his gratitude to the Cloud Rider He Yuan from the Luofu Immortal Ship for helping to seal the Star Core.
...and announced that the climate of Beloborg would gradually return to normal over time, and that friends from the Fairy Ship would help them rebuild their homes.
The crowd erupted in excitement, and many eyes turned to the young man beside the Great Guardian.
Her striking appearance, formidable skills, and numerous achievements all endeared Crane to the people of Belloberg.
A fox-person from the Sky Ship Bureau once said, "If the Valiant Guard joins the Sky Ship Bureau, they only need to stand there, and merchants from afar will send them credits in droves."
Now, the people of Belloberg are tossing Winter City shields in small handfuls, keeping a close eye on them, and picking them up before they land.
He Yuan smiled as she watched their actions.
Although the start wasn't perfect, he still fulfilled his wish.
And... the Great Guardian isn't that hard to talk to.
*
"...The envoy from the Luofu Immortal Ship signed a friendly and mutually beneficial agreement with Beloborg, helping us build infrastructure and sending teachers here to impart knowledge, helping us to become independent in the galaxy."
"Furthermore, three hundred years after the last martial arts ceremony, another invitation has been sent here. This time, we have sent a total of seven people."
"Although it didn't achieve the same results as Mr. Igor, it was still a performance that exceeded expectations!"
Years later, an intelligence officer named Pera recounted this history in front of the Eternal Winter Monument.
The nameless visitor from outer space listened curiously all the way and also participated in the recently reported festival event called "Long Sky Festival".
"To commemorate this day, we specifically asked the Cloud Cavalry Army—that is, the army of the Immortal Boat Luofu—what their slogan is."
"The celestial ship soars high, and the cloud riders are always victorious."
"It is said that this was their slogan, and thus, the festival called the 'Sky Festival' was born."
"Sister Pera, why is it called the Sky Festival?"
"Because 'long sky' refers to the vast sky, we hope that the Cloud Cavalry and our Silver Mane Iron Guards can both soar in the vast sky."
"Is there also a connection to the slogan?"
"Yes, that's very well said!"
-----------------------
Author's note: After thinking about it, I realized that introducing too many Star Gods here would be too chaotic, and my current writing skills probably wouldn't be able to handle it.
Moreover, A Yuan's attributes are not high right now, and he is always in a passive state. I'll give him some boosts first.
The Immortal Boat arc is almost over; it'll probably only take one or two more chapters. I've written everything that needed to be written.
Next, I'll write some short side stories, then go to Pinocchio and do some pioneering work.
I'm holding a giveaway; anyone with a 70% subscription rate can participate. Also, I'll be lowering the subscription rate a bit in the next few days, since I've already written so many words, haha.
