As she spoke, looking at Jibril who was listening intently to her story, Tingyun mustered up her courage and asked.
"So, you really aren't the Great Lord of Annihilation?"
"of course not!"
Jibril immediately shook her head, then straightened her back and said.
"I am Jibril, the most beloved child of Lord Su Mo!"
Hearing this, Tingyun breathed a slight sigh of relief, then looked at Su Mo.
"So, my benefactor, you are not the ancestor of annihilation... I mean, Nanuk, the god of destruction?"
Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned, first feeling bewildered, then feeling a chill run down their spines.
Only then did they understand why Tingyun had been trembling and why he was so afraid.
If it were any other envoy, it wouldn't matter. But if the girl in front of me is the Destruction envoy, then who exactly is Su Mo, whom she calls her master?
If it really is the true form of the God of Destruction descending... then they don't need to worry about the future, because there is definitely no future.
Everyone, including Jing Liu who was blindfolded, focused their attention on Su Mo. Most of them were trembling and some were even on the verge of tears.
Only after realizing that what they were facing might be the true form of the God of Destruction did they realize how much Tingyun had restrained her trembling and how strong her mental fortitude was.
If it were them, they wouldn't even dare to ask; they'd rather bury their heads in the ground like ostriches.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Su Mo asked in return with interest.
"What if I say yes?"
"Oh, my benefactor, please don't joke around."
Even Tingyun trembled with fear this time, her beautiful body almost soaked in cold sweat.
"Okay, then I won't joke around anymore, I'm not."
Seeing that the fox-eared girl was almost scared to death, Su Mo shook his head and told the truth.
"really not?"
Tingyun still couldn't believe it.
"of course not!"
Jibril said with a disdainful look.
"How could a mere Destruction Star God possibly compare to my master?"
"That's good... Wait, you wouldn't happen to be the God of Pleasure, would you?"
Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, remembering a mysterious tale about a star, Tingyun tentatively asked again.
Although Nanuk is considered a junior among the Star Gods, only Nothingness and Pleasure could so disregard him.
In truth, the Star God of Joy does have a habit of transforming into a human to find amusement.
"No."
Su Mo shook his head again. Seeing that Ting Yun was still unable to let it go, since nothing the Star God of Joy did was surprising, he immediately explained.
“I am not a star god, so there’s no need for wild guesses. Xiao Ji is not a messenger either; she’s just a little stronger than the average destiny walker.”
"...You call this 'slightly stronger'?"
Tingyun had an expression that said she couldn't say anything, but she still believed Su Mo's explanation.
There's nothing we can do if we don't believe it. The God of Joy has no reason to play tricks on these minor characters. If we keep being suspicious, we won't survive. Everyone in the world could be Ah-ha in disguise.
After ruling out the most terrifying possibility, Tingyun immediately invited Su Mo and the others to his room as guests.
She hadn't lied; she had indeed prepared excellent tea and refreshments.
Seeing this, Su Mo called Ruan Mei over as well.
Seeing that Ruan Mei, also a member of the Immortal Ship, was Su Mo's companion, Ting Yun and the caravan members finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"So, Lord Su Mo and Miss Jing Liu both wish to travel to the Immortal Ship Luo Fu? It just so happens that my fleet is also returning and is not far from the Luo Fu territory. If Lord Su Mo and you are not in a hurry, I can lead the way for you benefactors and let you have a good tour of Luo Fu."
After finding out the purpose of the group, Tingyun regained her charming and diplomatic demeanor, and her attitude became extremely warm and attentive.
"As for Miss Jingliu, I'm sorry, but according to the rules of our Immortal Ship, I cannot receive you."
If she encountered a demonic spirit, not reporting it would already be a violation of the rules. Even if she had ten times the courage, she wouldn't dare to bring Mirror Flow to the Immortal Ship on her own initiative.
"No problem, I have my own way."
Jingliu shook his head, his attitude aloof.
"..."
Tingyun's expression stiffened for a moment.
Isn't this just openly announcing that they want to illegally cross the border?
If it weren't for the fact that the other party had saved her life, she would have reported them to the Yunqi Army on the spot.
Even if she is one of the Five Heroes of the Clouds, the danger she faces after falling into demonic possession is far greater.
Seeing this, Su Mo spoke up at the opportune moment.
"If Miss Jingliu is willing, she can enter the country with us without worrying about violating the rules of the Immortal Ship."
Upon hearing this, Tingyun immediately shook her head.
"How could that be! My benefactor, you are unaware of our true nature. Our Immortal Ship has always treated the Demon Yin Body with the principle of 'better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free.' We will never allow the Demon Yin Body to move freely under any circumstances."
This is a matter of principle and cannot be changed.
"I know."
Su Mo nodded, then changed the subject.
"But what if I get General Jing Yuan's promise from Luofu, and a pardon from the Grand Marshal of the Immortal Ship?"
"If these two approve, it would indeed be fine, but that's impossible!"
Tingyun shook her head, both amused and exasperated.
It seems impossible for two important figures to vouch for a mere demonic body.
Jing Yuan goes without saying. How could someone of Grand Marshal Hua's caliber, who is extremely busy, possibly agree to such a thing?
Even Jingliu shook his head upon hearing this, not believing that such an outrageous thing could become a reality.
Faced with their attitude, Su Mo shook his head.
"There's no need for further explanation; you can verify this with Jingyuan himself later..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the ship's captain suddenly knocked on the door urgently and came to report.
"Reporting to Miss Tingyun! The main force of the Cloud Cavalry is lined up at the front. Lord Fu Xuan, the Grand Diviner, has personally led the team to welcome us from afar. Even General Jingyuan is waiting at the Immortal Boat Ferry, seemingly to welcome some distinguished guest."
"The ferry crossing has been temporarily requisitioned. Should we change direction and enter through another ferry crossing to avoid affecting the alliance's important affairs?"
Looking at the grand welcoming team in front of him, the leader was clearly a little flustered.
This welcoming ceremony was clearly carried out in a hurry, so there was no formal notification to the public. Those who could enjoy such treatment must be high-ranking officials.
In this situation, there's no way we can just barge in.
How could their small chamber of commerce possibly withstand such a grand ceremony as a diviner leading the way and a general waiting for them?
"Distinguished guest?!"
Upon hearing this, Tingyun looked surprised and uncertain.
Unlike the leader who panicked and planned to take a detour, she and Jingliu, facing such a grand scene, simultaneously realized a certain possibility and turned their gazes to Su Mo.
Facing the gazes of the others, Su Mo calmly nodded.
"It seems our people have arrived. Miss Tingyun, bring the boat over here!"
"……Yes!"
After a moment of stunned silence, Tingyun immediately accepted the order.
She hurriedly led the helmsman to direct the fleet, heading straight towards the Cloud Cavalry's warships and approaching the waiting main warship.
On the main ship, a petite girl with pink hair was looking at the merchant ship in front of her with an extremely calm gaze.
She waved her hand, suppressing the doubts and questions of her subordinates, and took the initiative to step forward with the etiquette due to receiving a distinguished guest.
"May I ask if the visitor is Mr. Su Mo, the genius who refused the invitation from the Genius Club, the leader of the Mech Legion, and who once fought against the Star God for destruction?"
176 Marshal Hua's greetings, Fu Xuan's divination
"Exactly."
Su Mo nodded and walked out with Ruan Mei and Jibril.
"This must be Ms. Ruan Mei from the Genius Club! It's a pleasure to meet you!"
Fu Xuan was clearly much more familiar with Ruan Mei.
Both parties confirmed their identities and nodded to each other.
It was only then that Tingyun realized Su Mo's true identity.
The geniuses who refused the invitation from the Genius Club are of equal status to the Intellectual Envoys. Together with Ruan Mei, and including Jibril who has the combat power of an Envoy.
The three people in front of them were practically at the level of Commanders.
Looking across the entire galaxy, these were the highest-ranking individuals below the Star God, and she unexpectedly encountered three of them in one go.
"How lucky is this young lady? Meeting so many important figures in one go!"
Tingyun patted her chest, feeling a little unreal.
Upon hearing this, Fu Xuan glanced at the fox-eared girl.
"The wicked are not auspicious, and it is not conducive to the virtuous and upright; the great departs and the small arrives."
“You are indeed very lucky. According to the divination, if you had not met Mr. Su Mo, you might have already perished, or you might be trapped on some desolate planet that has deviated from its orbit.”
"Fortunately, things turned around. Mr. Su Mo's existence changed your divination, allowing you to grasp the last glimmer of hope from a life-or-death situation."
