"clear."

Jingliu nodded quietly, and then quickly put on his clothes.

Perhaps because she had been exposed for too long before, after getting dressed, she even put on a moon-white cloak to avoid constantly recalling the itchy and strange sensation she had felt before.

·

noon the next day.

On the rooftop of the Earth Balance Office building, at the rooftop terrace.

A man with long blond hair, carrying a strange coffin on his back and holding a thin sword, quietly pushed open the door to the rooftop.

Upon seeing the figure draped in a moon-white cloak at the edge of the rooftop, the man paused slightly, revealing a wary expression.

He only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Jingliu's eye patch.

"Why did you suddenly change your appearance, and why did you insist on meeting on the rooftop... If I didn't know your identity, I would have suspected that you were going to betray me, Miss Jingliu."

His tone was gentle, yet it subtly conveyed a sense of respectful distance.

Clearly, the two were not particularly familiar with each other.

However, anyone on this immortal ship could betray him, except for Jing Liu, who was both a demonic being and a traitor to the immortal ship. So he quickly put aside his concerns.

Faced with the blond man's demands, Kagami silently shook his head.

"If the plan succeeds, I will not betray you. We all have our own purposes."

"That's natural."

Rakshasa nodded, closed the door, and walked towards Mirror Flow.

"So, what brings you here today? I haven't yet planted the crucial seeds, but the plan that has already been drafted cannot be changed."

As he spoke, he slowly approached Jingliu and stopped five steps away.

This wasn't because he noticed something was wrong with the other person, but rather because of his consistent caution.

However, at this moment, this caution seems to have cost him dearly.

As if it had anticipated his movements, the moment he stopped, a magic circle suddenly appeared beneath his feet, and a feeling of weightlessness washed over him, causing him to float on the spot.

"Who?"

Sensing the sound of something cutting through the air coming from behind, Rakshasa, caught off guard, chose the most timely response.

He turned around and, with a rapier, miraculously blocked the blade coming from behind.

In the instant the rapier and the blade clashed, he saw the attacker's face with his own eyes, and even with his composure, he couldn't help but be startled.

"How is this possible? Jing Yuan?!"

What he saw was actually Luo Fu's general?!

What happened? Did their tracks get leaked and they get ambushed?

Rakshasa was filled with doubt, but before she could turn around, she felt a chill surge into her heart, freezing her entire body and rendering her unable to move.

This was a power he knew all too well; he had seen his comrades use this frost-like blade to defeat the antimatter legion more than once.

After a moment of silence, he dropped the rapier in his hand, letting it fall to the ground, and raised his hands in a gesture of surrender.

Finally, he slowly turned around and looked at his former teammates.

"Kyoryu, have you betrayed us?"

Rakshasa's eyes were filled with disbelief.

Even now, he can't understand why the other party betrayed him.

A traitor from the Immortal Ship, a demonic being, and a rebel with the same aspirations have actually defected to Luofu?

Isn't this seeking death?

Faced with the gaze of his former ally, Jingliu silently shook his head.

"I had no choice before, but now I intend to abandon this impossible plan."

179 Nine Star Cores + Jianmu Tree + Extinction Lord: The Greatest Crisis

Facing the combined attack of Jingliu and Jingyuan, even though Luosha considered herself to be quite skilled, she never thought she would be a match for General Xianzhou.

It has nothing to do with martial arts; the power the opponent possesses, belonging to the Hunting Envoy, is enough to crush all beings below the level of an Envoy.

Not to mention, if one wanted to calculate one's every move clearly, the involvement of that diviner Fu Xuan would be essential.

Whatever one intends to do, once fully exposed to the diviner's gaze, there will be no chance.

Therefore, he readily gave up resisting and questioned Jingliu.

“Terminate the plan…do you know what you’re saying?”

Putting aside their shared goal of needing to achieve it through this plan, even disregarding that, they've already come this far, and it's too late to stop now.

Although she couldn't contact the Great Lord of Annihilation, she must have already arrived at the Immortal Ship.

"Of course I know."

Jingliu nodded seriously.

“Our plan has long been exposed and is doomed to fail. So now, I have accepted a new invitation and am preparing to launch another plan.”

"So, do you want to cooperate with Lord Su Mo's new plan? Of course, whether you accept or refuse, this lord's plan will definitely be implemented."

During yesterday's conversation, although she didn't understand how her plan was exposed, she realized one very important point.

That is, compared to the original plan, Su Mo's version of the plan is more likely to achieve her goal.

Realizing this possibility, she immediately changed her mindset and joined Su Mo's plan.

Bringing out the Rakshasa at this moment is nothing more than a pledge of allegiance.

"Lord Su Mo..."

Upon hearing the name, Rakshasa pondered for a moment.

Previously, the ceremony of the diviner leading the way and the general waiting was so grand that the entire Luofu was discussing the guest's identity, wondering why Su Mo received such high-level treatment.

Luosha had naturally heard of Su Mo's deeds.

"Has that uncrowned genius seen through our plan and is now planning something new?"

From Jingliu's words, Luosha deduced the key to the other party's defection. After thinking for a few seconds, he asked with utmost calmness.

"Why would you trust him? Jingliu, this isn't like you."

He believed that if Su Mo really had similar ideas, as a genius, he could indeed come up with something new and innovative.

But before that, the first thing to solve is the issue of trust. What makes him believe that Su Mo really shares the same goal as him?

"Because he is strong, he is very strong."

Recalling the power Jibril had displayed, Jingliu's expression became slightly solemn.

"So strong that there's no need for us to lie to me about it, and we have no room to refuse."

Faced with such an extraordinary power, there is no point in taking any action other than submission.

The reasons given by Jing Liu were undoubtedly insufficient and far from proving that Su Mo genuinely harbored the same purpose.

But Rakshasa did not continue to question it. Instead, after a long silence, he nodded.

"You're right, I have no right to refuse."

"So, what do you want me to do next? Do you want to find out information about that Annihilation Lord, or do you plan to imprison me in the Dark Prison, or do you just want the Star Core in my possession?"

With no way out, he acted unusually recklessly.

Jingliu responded immediately to this.

"That lord means that you should continue with your previous plan and put the star core into the Jianmu tree."

"—!"

Upon hearing this, Luosha raised an eyebrow and glanced at Jing Yuan, who showed no reaction, her expression finally betraying her shock.

This statement was tantamount to dropping a nuclear bomb on an ordinary country, yet Jingyuan showed no sign of objection whatsoever.

"Even General Xianzhou was persuaded? He was even willing to approve such a dangerous plan... That lord is truly surprising!"

After the initial shock, he nodded.

"If we proceed according to the previous plan, it will be simple with the tacit approval of the Immortal Ship."

"But if that's the case, why bother capturing me? Even if you didn't capture me, I would still act according to the original plan, wouldn't I?"

At this point, Rakshasa seemed slightly puzzled.

No matter how you look at it, concealing the news of one's defection is the safest course of action.

"Your mission remains the same, you're just carrying a little more stuff."

At that moment, a girl's voice, though very childish in tone, rang out.

With small, delicate steps and a serious expression, Fu Xuan pushed a briefcase towards Luocha.

"This is Lord Su Mo's mission... These eight star cores, along with the one you have, must be placed into the Jianmu tree one after the other. Be careful to control the timing to avoid causing a disaster!"

Even her usually dignified hands were trembling slightly at this moment.

Eight star cores—this is a catastrophic force capable of shattering the entire Immortal Ship Luofu.

If it weren't for Su Mo's mission, and if the divination hadn't indicated that this was a necessary risk, even if Qing Que were killed, Fu Xuan wouldn't have dared to transport eight star cores alone.

She was still young and didn't want to die in the line of duty while transporting dangerous goods before she became a general.

Su Mo went too far, to the point that even she was a little scared.

"Eight star cores?!"

Even the Rakshasa was completely stunned when he heard this.

For top-tier cosmic powers like the Immortal Boat Alliance and the Interstellar Peace Corporation, the disaster caused by a single star core is nothing; they can easily resolve it.

Even in their previous plans, the Star Core was merely a catalyst; what truly triggered a massive upheaval was the Abundant Miracle of Jianmu.
