From the Queen's Descends, Collapse Douluo

Chapter 263 A Long Separation with an Unknown Return

"Don't you think so, Miss Memory?"

Lu Xueling turned around and looked into the darkness.

Amidst the flashing purple shadows, cards engraved with black swans fell, reflecting the figure of a woman.

The newcomer wore a purple veil adorned with four-leaf clovers, and her soft, pale purple hair cascaded down her back. Her delicate, gentle face was framed by a pair of beautiful, starry eyes that gazed at the man with a gentle curiosity.

In their gaze, it was as if one could see an unfathomable, deep pool within those eyes. Beneath the slightly upturned corners of her lips, words like mysterious, languid, and elegant became the defining characteristics of this woman.

Her rounded shoulders were bare, her slender waist confined beneath a dark purple leather coat. Her long legs were encased in black stockings and high-heeled leather boots, their fullness accentuated by a delicate beauty.

"Black Swan?" Lu Xueling was slightly surprised. He thought it was just a random NPC from Yiting, but he didn't expect it to be this beautiful woman.

"General of the Sun and Moon Immortal Ship, greetings." The sexy and beautiful mature woman bowed slightly, her smile elegant and proper.

Lu Xueling glanced at the scene of Yongdong Ridge on the screen. It had become a mess, and the mountain peaks had been razed to the ground by Xiaoxue, who had released [Mob]. It wouldn't be long before the outcome was decided.

“Those who cherish memories cherish precious recollections, and the battle you have orchestrated is truly magnificent…” the Black Swan said with an elegant bow of her head and a smile, “May I humbly request that you entrust it to me?”

If it were an ordinary traveler on the path of destiny, the Memory Masters of the Flowing Light Memory Court would not usually be so easy to talk to, but the person in front of them was not only the envoy of the [Hunting]... but also an honorary Immortal Ship General independent of the Alliance, basically not subject to the Alliance's control.

Moreover... several years ago, Lu Xueling had a record of defeating those of his fellow generals.

Such a powerful figure, let alone the Black Swan, would have to give way to even other memory envoys.

Gently twirling the photograph in his hand, Lu Xueling stared intently at the black swan without uttering a word.

"...General Fallen Angel, it's hard for me to be stared at like this," the Black Swan murmured softly, looking helpless.

"Ah~ It's nothing, I just think you're very beautiful, Miss." Taking advantage of Xilin's absence, Lu Xueling decided to let loose a bit and tease the beautiful woman in front of him.

"Hehe. Thank you for your praise." Black Swan smiled gently. "Then this memory..."

Lu Xueling snapped his fingers, and the image on the projection screen froze, starting the download at the highest quality.

“I can give it to you, but I have two conditions,” Lu Xueling said calmly.

"please say."

"First, give me a communicator so I can contact you anytime."

Black Swan nodded, casually summoned a tarot card, and gently tossed it to Lu Xueling. The tarot card drew a graceful arc in the air and landed in his hand.

Tarot cards twirled in his hands. Lu Xueling then raised his eyes and stared intently at the Black Swan: "Second, help me find someone, and notify me immediately after you find them. You cannot make any decisions on your own."

Black Swan's expression turned slightly serious, realizing that someone whom even a Star God Envoy had decided to entrust with the search must be no ordinary person.

"Whom does the Fallen General seek?"

"The Sea-Patrolling Knight, the Yellow Springs."

(This is my only set of 6+1 teeth!)
Everwinter Ridge.

sizzle...

Electric arcs flowed along the golden wires, lifting the limbs of the creation engine, causing it to shatter once more.

On the ground, the three pioneers were exhausted, while the builders had already been almost entirely killed or wounded.

"No!" Bronya struggled to prop herself up, watching helplessly as the metal fragments of the Creation Engine fell.

With a casual tug, Qian Renxue pulled a golden thread around Cocolia's body, dragging her to her side.

The Herrscher's voice softened slightly this time: "First, I express my respect to you. On this planet of only boundless despair, there are still many heroes with unwavering faith, fighting for humanity. However, you are still too naive… naive enough to be killed by so-called hope. You… currently know nothing of the vastness of the universe." This passage… this tone…

Walter Young looked up abruptly, staring at her in disbelief, as if he couldn't believe what he was hearing. But a harsh, grinding sound came from his throat, as if it were burning.

"Ha...I really...in the end, I still ended up harming Beloberg..." Cocolia laughed bitterly, her voice hoarse and dry, "But, I'm not reconciled."

"Pfft..." Qian Renxue smiled and said, "Didn't I say that I would show my respect to everyone? This means that you have passed [His] test. Yalilo VI is qualified to continue to exist in the universe."

Below, having understood the meaning behind the Herrscher's words, Bronya's heart rekindled with hope. "You... are you willing to let Beloberg go?"

“No… Bronya, it can’t be simple?!” Natasha, the leader of the Earthfire, stood up, clenching her fists. “Even if it’s true, I don’t believe there won’t be a price to pay.”

The Herrscher ignored Natasha's questions and simply turned her gaze back to Cocolia: "His Holiness the Bishop has some appreciation for you... You are very lucky."

Qian Renxue said no more, and beckoned Kurikara to spread his wings. Golden threads guided Cocolia to the top of the giant dragon's head, and they took off into the air.

"No—!" Bronya struggled to her feet. "No, don't take her away!!"

The Herrscher wouldn't stop because of her words; she would only take Cocolia further and further away from Arillow VI until they disappeared into the horizon.

Bronya collapsed to the ground, gazing at the clouds in the sky, tears streaming down her face.

How far and how long will this parting be? Will it be life or death?
Walter Young watched all this in silence, clenching his fists and gritting his teeth: "Oh! T! Don't let me... find out it really was you!"

The celestial ship of the sun and moon has perished in the Desolate Palace.

Celine reclined languidly in the general's chair, utterly unaware.

While listlessly painting her nails, her gaze kept sweeping over the mountain of documents piled up on the desk, and she suddenly felt annoyed.

"Cirin, I'm back." The man stepped out of the void rift, wrapped his arms around his queen from behind.

"Hmm☆" Xilin twisted her waist, turned her head to look at his handsome profile, "You came back fairly punctually, so I'll give you that approval for now☆"

The man smiled, leaned down and breathed hot air into the Queen's ear, "Good news, soon your Five Guards of the Imperial Guard will be full."

"The fourth one has been found?"

“Yes, Xiaoxue is training her.” Lu Xueling’s smile deepened. “And I also have someone in mind for the fifth position.”

"Huh? I don't understand." Xilin didn't understand what Lu Xueling was saying.

Lu Xueling's smile remained unchanged as he pulled her into his arms, stroked her purple hair, and said softly, "It's okay if you don't understand, but we should now do something we understand very well."

Celine's cheeks flushed, and she lowered her eyes shyly, "You...you just got back and you already..."

The Queen said this, but her actions showed no sign of resistance.

Lu Xueling smiled and shook his head, then gently pecked the Queen's luscious lips.

"Hmm...uh?" Sirin's beautiful eyes suddenly turned cold: "Human, why do you smell like another woman?"

Lu Xueling's smile froze. "Ah...ah? How, how is this possible?"

Xilin narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, and with a slight movement of her spatial power, the communication tarot card given by the black swan appeared at her fingertips.

"..."

"Darling☆ Where did this thing come from?"
