Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

Bai E forced out an awkward yet polite smile, bowing and scraping, looking just like a bad student caught red-handed by the headmaster.

Carrying the brush, he walked towards the earth beasts that were impatiently pawing at each other and spitting out hot air.

But his gaze remained glued to another "keeper" not far away, like superglue.

It's all because that guy looks exactly like him, except for a cheap, low-quality version...

The same messy white hair is clearly the result of inferior hair dye, and it even has a yellowish tinge.

The man was wearing a loose-fitting, seemingly stolen, animal worker's uniform; his was even bigger, like he was wearing a sack.

His eyes were furtive, glancing left and right, giving off an air of suspicion but he was deliberately trying to act natural.

Whenever someone strikes up a conversation with him, he immediately becomes like a golden-blooded rantist, unleashing a torrent of complaints.

now.

The pirated Bai Er was sitting arrogantly on an overturned feed bucket, with his legs crossed.

Holding a brush, he absentmindedly poked the rear end of a drowsy earth beast beside him, spitting as he spoke to the workers who had gathered around him.

"Sigh, let me be frank with you. Now that they've risen to power, their ambition and fangs have been exposed in an instant!"

"Do you still remember that contest our beloved Lord Bai'e and Lord Wan Di held in the high-temperature bath, where they challenged each other to see who could endure the highest temperature in boiling water the longest and accidentally collapse the bath?"

The pirated Bai E slapped his thigh in anguish, making the feed bucket thud loudly.

"The moment those two unleashed their domineering aura! Wow! Good grief!"

"Within a radius of several hundred meters, like dumplings being dropped into a pot, a large number of innocent citizens collapsed with a thud!"

"My second uncle's cousin's neighbor's dog was being walked at the time, and it was shaken so badly that it spun around three times before collapsing!"

Upon hearing this, the onlookers murmured approving "tsk tsk" sounds.

This is true; many people witnessed it back then.

"you do not say!"

"Why did you have to pick a crowded place to have a competition?"

Seeing the enthusiastic response, the pirated Bai Er became even more energetic, waving his brush as if conducting a symphony:

"Tell me! If they really cared about us ordinary people, would they have gone to such lengths as creating human-shaped self-propelled stun devices? Protection? I think they're professional at accidentally injuring people!"

"Uh..." Bai E felt a little embarrassed listening to this, his face burning, wishing he could dig a hole and bury himself in the earth beast's dung heap to calm down.

Although I hate to admit it, what he said is indeed correct; I did not consider things enough back then.

Bai E, feeling ashamed, vigorously brushed the back of the earth beast in front of him, the force of which made the earth beast groan.

"And Lord Wan Di! I don't even want to talk about him..."

Seeing that the atmosphere was right, the pirated version of Bai Er went all out and started its map-wide attack mode:

"When we in Ohmah took in the Suspended Ones, we were so kind... and what happened? These people!"

He imitated the gruff tone of the man from the Suspended Peak.

"They shout slogans all day long: 'Revival! Glory! Struggle!' and look at us like we're a bunch of spineless cowards who only know how to farm!"

He rolled his eyes dramatically, raising his voice:

"Come on! Not everyone in this world is like them, born with a natural talent for violence, itching to fight every day, okay?!"

"We just want to take a peaceful bath, feed the beasts, without getting stunned or mocked. Is that too much to ask?!"

"That's it!"

"No problem, bro."

"That's absolutely right!" The crowd erupted in even more enthusiastic agreement, with some even clapping.

Bai E couldn't refute it; it was indeed true.

Just as the pirated Bai Er got more and more excited, preparing to turn the Golden Descendants' dirty secrets into a TV series...

"boom!"

A giant, used animal hair brush, covered in red mud and some unknown slime, fell from the sky with perfect precision, making a whooshing sound, and landed squarely on the face of the pirated Bai E, who was spitting everywhere!

The force was so great that it knocked him off the feed bucket and made him stagger.

"Holy crap—! Who?! Who's blind?!" The pirated Bai E, covered in brush bristles and mud, scrambled to his feet, looking around furiously.

The team leader stood not far away, looking menacing, and was holding another brush in his hand.

"Did I give you face?"

"I told you not to talk about these things, are you deaf or something?!"

"No matter what path the heroes choose, all we have to do is support them with all our might!"

"If you have any complaints, then get out of Ohmma! I'll process your resignation right now!"

The crowd fell silent instantly.

Seeing the angry team leader, the pirated Bai E rubbed his nose, stood up sullenly, and put the feed bucket away.

"And you!" The old team leader stared at Bai E, his tone icy.

"You've been staring in that direction the whole time. What, did you see your own brother? The work I'm making you do is absolutely tedious!"

The team leader, hands on his hips, roared throughout the workshop:

"You two, you white-haired bastards! Get over there and go pick fertilizer for the Earth Beast!"

"No one's leaving get off work today until we've cleaned everything thoroughly. If you don't get your jobs done, we'll dock your pay!"

"Understand?"

"I understand..." Bai E nodded awkwardly.

The two were herded by the old team leader to the thatched shed area at the other end of the workshop, like ducks.

As soon as you get close, an indescribable, complex odor, a mixture of fermented hay and some kind of rich 'earth essence,' forcefully assaults your nostrils, making your vision go black.

"Ugh..." The young man who was wearing the pirated white coat gagged, his face turned green, and he covered his nose and backed away.

"This smell... is even stronger than that old hag Katniss's schemes!"

Bai E couldn't help but hold his breath.

In front of me, in the thatched shed, there was a small mountain of freshly made fertilizer raw materials, still steaming hot.

Several smaller earth beasts leisurely swished their tails by the shed, seemingly enjoying the fragrance.

"What are you looking at?"

The bootlegger, seeing Bai E also frowning and covering his nose, immediately adopted a disdainful expression, pointing to two enormous pitchforks beside him:

"Don't expect me to help you. Do your own work. The team leader said no one is leaving until everyone has cleaned up their work. I'm still waiting to go to the 'Sober Ones' meeting after get off work!"

Chapter 1485 Are you really from a small village?

Bai E didn't respond; he carefully examined the indignant young man in front of him.

Although her face was covered in mud and her hair was a mess of dye, upon closer inspection...

The contours of his eyebrows and eyes, especially the slightly stubborn yet somewhat childish expression that he inadvertently revealed... did indeed resemble me a little bit.

More importantly...

“I’m just curious about one thing.” Bai Er picked up a heavy pitchfork, weighed it in his hand, and asked casually:

“Some of your features seem to be similar to those of Bai E, one of the Golden Descendants.”

He pointed to the young man's messy white hair:

"Judging from those stubborn black hair roots that have just grown on your head... your white hair, is it dyed?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?" The young man's voice immediately rose, as if he had been stepped on, and carried a stubborn tone.

"I used to dye my hair because I admired him; I thought he was handsome, powerful, and a hero! Now I dye my hair..."

The young man forcefully forked up a large clump of fertilizer and slammed it into the wooden bucket next to him.

"It's to remind myself and everyone else that heroes can turn into cowards, and idols can fall from grace."

"Why?" Bai E imitated him, clumsily forking up a lump of food.

He tried his best to maintain the curious expression of an ordinary zookeeper:

"Just because of that... uh, 'humanoid self-propelled stun device' incident?"

"Hmph! That was just the fuse!"

The young man forked up another large chunk, his movement filled with a sense of venting anger, almost splashing the two men with it.

"I was one of those people who were stunned by their domineering aura in the hot bath!"

He pointed to his own nose, his face filled with grief and indignation:

"Do you know how it felt when I woke up? My head was buzzing, like I'd been kicked by a beast of the earth for three days and three nights! My ears were ringing! The worst part was..."

His tone suddenly became extremely resentful:

"I had just gotten into the pool, ready to confess my feelings to my crush, when suddenly I collapsed with a 'plop'!"

When I woke up, I was in the dimly lit courtyard, and the pond that used to be there had collapsed!

"I spent half a month's salary on this limited edition luxury rose bath bomb with an automatic back-scrubbing function! And it's just buried in the rubble! Not even a trace of it can be found!"

"I was hoping to win the goddess's heart with that bath sponge, but it all fell apart like this!"

Bai E: “…”

The young man continued rambling on:

"Can you understand how I feel? That's half a month's salary for me!"

"Later I found out that the goddess was with another guy, and that guy could even pull out a whole bunch of bath sponges!"

“Friend, forgive my bluntness… this isn’t about the bath sponge and… Bai E, is it?” Bai E’s eye twitched involuntarily.
