From the Queen's Descends, Collapse Douluo

Chapter 267 Yanqing, the Big Leak

The blond man bowed slightly and finally spoke: "Gentlemen, I am Rakshasa, just an ordinary merchant from outer space."

"The Nameless Guest and the Extraterrestrial Merchant?" Yan Qing narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing the two people before him.

The train ticket on Danheng's body couldn't be faked, but this Rakshasa... struck him as very strange. Even now, he couldn't see anything particularly unusual about him...

Never mind, I'll report to the general when we get back to the Shence Palace.

Rakshasa asked gently, "May I ask Miss Sushang, and this Cloud Cavalry Guard, what has happened to the Immortal Ship recently? I have traveled here and here many times for trade, and I have never seen the Star Chariot Sea in such a state."

Su Chang looked a little embarrassed: "This... um... I can't reveal it. I only received orders to come and rescue civilians. To be honest, I don't know either."

Yanqing frowned slightly and explained, "Master only told me that things might not be peaceful in Luofu recently and that I should go home as soon as possible. I didn't expect... it would be a star core."

"Your master?" Dan Heng's eyes flashed. "Is he the general of Luofu today?"

Yan Qing shook his head and said, "No, my master is the fallen general of the Sun and Moon."

"The Sun and Moon Immortal Ship? The Fallen General?!" Dan Heng was astonished. Could it be that the Immortal Ship had been expanded into another Immortal Ship over the past few hundred years?
Yanqing's expression carried a hint of pride: "It's normal that you don't know, after all, my master and his wife have only been famous in the Milky Way for less than four star calendar years. And I became his disciple in the first year."

"So that's how it is..." Dan Heng suddenly realized, and then sighed, "I just didn't expect that a general from the Alliance would get married. This is the first time I've heard of such a thing."

Hmm... Once we get back to the train, it will be perfect to record this in the think tank.

Rakshasa was also surprised: "I didn't expect that the Alliance's Imperial Bow General has expanded to an eighth one? This makes me curious... What kind of people are Xiaowei's master and mistress?"

A flicker of wariness flashed across Yan Qing's eyes, then she looked around, turned and summoned her flying sword: "Let's talk on the way."

Rakshasa lowered her head slightly, her tone tinged with apology: "Ah, I'm sorry, I sometimes don't know how to handle the nuances of communication. I hope I haven't offended you."

Yanqing did not reply, but told Sushang to check their backs. The two Cloud Riders, one in front and one behind, led Danheng and Luosha away from Liuyun Ferry.

With Yanqing clearing the way, everything became much smoother.

He wasn't as wary of Dan Heng, and they chatted quite congenially. However, because Luo Sha was present, he didn't reveal much about Lu Xueling and Xi Lin.

"Lu Xueling? The name does sound like someone from within the alliance, but your master's wife, Xilin..."

Yanqing shook his head and shrugged: "How would I know how Master and Mistress met?"

Luocha chuckled, not delving into Yanqing's concealment, but instead asking about another topic: "I heard that the Five Valiant Warriors of the Sun and Moon were also established by General Fallen?"

Yan Qing frowned slightly, feeling that Luo Sha's words seemed to have a hidden meaning: "Of course, just like General Jing Yuan and the others in the past... but even for me, I have only met three of the five Yun Xiaos."

Luosha didn't ask any further questions, but Teacher Danheng's curiosity was piqued: "Could I possibly have the honor of knowing their names?"

Yanqing smiled: "Of course, and my master's wife is among them, and she is the leader of the Five Valiant Ones."

"The Sky-Controlling One, Queen of the End, Lin Xueyunxiao. Master Xilin."

"The Thunder God, the Angel of Law, Qian Xueyunxiao. Sister Qian Renxue."

"The Edictor, the Eye of Will, Ling Yuyunxiao. Brother Huo Yuhao."

Dan Heng's eyes lit up: "What a prestigious name! If I have the chance, I'd really like to go and explore [Sun and Moon]."

Hmm... When I see March and Hoshino, I must share these things with them.

Oh, and Mr. Walter too, I'm sure he'd be interested as well!
Yan Qing didn't reply, only smiled faintly, and continued leading the three towards the central hub of the Star Chariot Sea. ...

Shen Ce Mansion.

"Fu Qing...you've heard their opinions, what are your thoughts?"

Fu Xuan's projection, one hand on his hip, asked, "What's your opinion? [The ways of Heaven are clear and unfathomable, but the hearts of men are unpredictable.] Do you want me to cast a divination for these people and predict their intentions?"

Jing Yuan crossed his arms and laughed, "That's not necessary. The Starry Sky Train has nothing to do with this. I'm absolutely certain of that. We don't need to delve into their intentions. As long as the bait is swallowed and the fish is caught, that's enough."

Fu Xuan scoffed, "Isn't this my suggestion, General?"

Jing Yuan chimed in, "Yes, thanks to Fu Qing's wisdom and wisdom, and we're all relying on you."

"Hmph~ Then you should abdicate sooner rather than later."

Ding……

"Oh, it seems I've arrived at the right time."

Another projection descended upon the Divine Strategy Mansion; it was none other than the fallen General Lu Xueling.

Jing Yuan was slightly taken aback at first, then greeted him warmly: "General Yunjue, how have you been?"

Fu Xuan also bowed and greeted General Yunjue: "Fu Xuan greets General Yunjue."

Lu Xueling smiled and nodded, immediately getting straight to the point: "Jingyuan, your elite guards are coming back soon~ And, one of my S-rank Valkyries will also be there, her strength second only to my Five Valkyries."

"Yanqing!" Jing Yuan's eyes lit up slightly: "That's a good thing, Luofu is in need of people right now."

Lu Xueling gave a soft "hmm," then her tone became more serious: "I'll come too."

"You?!" Fu Xuan's eyelids twitched violently: "General Yunjue, it's just a mere calamity of the star core, is it really necessary for you and Generals Jingyuan to go through all this trouble?"

Lu Xueling smiled faintly: "The Star Core disaster is of course a minor matter. The key question is, why did the Star Core erupt on Luofu? In other words... why did the Star Core appear on Luofu?"

Fu Xuan's heart skipped a beat. He finally realized Lu Xueling's intention: "General Yunjue means... it's man-made? Then it must be related to the Star Core Hunter!"

Jing Yuan pondered for a moment: "I've also had my doubts about that. General Yunjue, your personal visit here proves that you have a clear target or... evidence?"

Lu Xueling nodded slightly: "Jing Yuan, when it comes to star cores, besides the Hunters, which other powerful force in the galaxy comes to mind?"

Jing Yuan's expression immediately changed: "The Annihilation Legion?!"

……

Xingchahai, in an inconspicuous corner.

His long robe concealed most of his figure, making it impossible to discern his gender with the naked eye. Pale blue-purple iris patterns peeked faintly from beneath the long sleeves, and a blue-and-white wolf tail cascaded down to his waist. A sense of ethereal darkness seemed to flicker within his golden pupils.

"The last time I was here was to witness Jingyuan's ascension to the rank of General..."

[? ? ?] With just a breath, the budding plant beside him instantly grew to the flowering stage...
