Starry Sky Railway: The Slacking Sword Saint is Keeped by Fu Xuan

"It's morning now, sir..."

Yu Sheng yawned, waved, and went inside.

Yu Chen watched his figure disappear into the house, then stretched lazily and yawned.

"Take a bath, take a bath... My little Fu Xuan, my little Fu Xuan~"

...

"uh-huh…"

Jing Yuan frowned and rubbed his throbbing head as he got up from the ground.

He sat up against the wall, still half asleep, staring blankly at the empty room in front of him.

Where is... no one?

So you just left him there and went back to fix things, right?

A well-built female employee suddenly walked in carrying a bowl of hangover soup. "General, please drink this. It's already noon..."

Shall we eat at Liuyun Pavilion?

"...Thank you, could you please prepare a little something for me..."

Jing Yuan reached out and took it, his mind still a little dazed.

Those two guys are really something...

Showing absolutely no mercy!

They just left him here to sleep like that...

After swallowing the warm soup, he felt much better. He glanced at the liquid in the bowl and sighed softly.

In the end, the people who care about you the most are still the restaurant staff, right...?

When he returned to the General's Mansion, he was slightly surprised to find that Yanqing was nowhere to be seen.

This kid can't...

Just then, Yanqing suddenly walked in through the main gate.

He seemed somewhat dazed.

Jing Yuan's lips curled up slightly as he slowly moved forward, preparing to torture him.

"Yanqing, are you only getting back now?"

"Ah...ah? General, yes...yes!"

The young man seemed a little nervous, even afraid to look Jing Yuan in the eye, and looked down at his toes.

Jing Yuan raised an eyebrow. "You...didn't come back last night?"

"Um…"

Yanqing lowered her head even further, her ripe ear tips glowing a vibrant red.

"Wow... these young people these days really have unlimited potential..."

Jing Yuan clicked his tongue, his expression turning complicated. He hadn't expected his little apprentice to progress so quickly...

He suddenly felt a little curious about what had happened between the other couple last night.

"No...no, we just...stayed out too late, and it was curfew, so we...we just got a room together and slept there..."

Jing Yuan looked at his little apprentice with a subtle expression. To be honest, Xing Xuan's age was really well-chosen, just at the point where Yan Qing could book a hotel room without the innkeeper reporting it to the authorities.

"Hmm... I understand, it's okay, Master is very open-minded... I just hope that no one gets pregnant before we get married!"

He patted Yanqing on the shoulder, a faint, mature man's smile on his face.

Although he was only an ultimate mage with a lifespan of nearly a thousand years…

"That's not how it works!"

"Xingxuan and I... we just... just slept together! Nothing... really..."

Yanqing's tone became increasingly weak; he indeed did not directly attempt a home run.

However, he was in the prime of his youth, when his fiery temper was at its peak, while Xingxuan happened to be a woman over a hundred years old.

It's unrealistic for two people to share a bed without any spark igniting...

However... there are many ways to release stress, aren't there?

"Okay, I understand. You don't need to tell me these details. Just remember to be careful!"

Jing Yuan patted Yan Qing's shoulder again, his eyes filled with a hint of relief, much like looking at a child...

It feels like, 'Ah, I've grown up.'

In that case, even if he suddenly passes away one day, Yanqing can still live a good life, right?

Jing Yuan slowly raised his head and looked up at the sky. Everyone around him had found their place, but where was his place to wander...?

When will we meet again, that person...?

When will I be able to embrace her?

He slowly exhaled, his expression turning somewhat wistful.

Beyond the heavens lies the vast and boundless starry sky. To find that person whose whereabouts are unknown, even with the millennia-long lifespan of the Celestial Race…

That's still far from enough...

Moreover, the threat of demonic influence constantly looms overhead.

Suddenly, he turned to look at the verdant pine tree. In his memory, it seemed to be a newly planted sapling, and he was just a young boy. His master was still alive and well then, accompanying him day and night, teaching him.

Looking at it now, I am astonished to find that it has grown into a towering tree, lush and verdant.

Beneath the tree still stands a boy, an apprentice; still stands a tall figure, a master.

The young man from that day has become the Divine Strategy General of Luofu, and countless battles have been won or lost with a wave of his hand. However, his master from that day has long since disappeared.

He took her place as the guardian deity of Luofu.

...

There is an old pine tree in the courtyard, planted by my teacher when he was alive; now it stands tall and spreading its branches…

My disciple and I shared the cool shade of the ancient pines, but I never saw my master's face again...

"Master... are you alright?"

Yanqing looked at Jingyuan, who had suddenly fallen silent and was staring blankly at the pine tree in the courtyard, and asked with some concern.

"Heh...it's alright. Come with me to the Shence Mansion. I'm half a day late; I hope they won't make things too difficult for me."

Jing Yuan smiled gently, turned around, and strode towards the door.

His expression returned to a relaxed and indifferent state.

Yanqing frowned slightly as she watched his retreating figure, but she couldn't detect anything unusual...

"Yes, General."

Chapter 66 The Advancing Stars

"Ah woo~"

Fu Xuan covered her mouth and yawned. Xing Xuan in front of her was pacing back and forth with a strange restlessness, unable to stay still.

She fiddled with this and that for a while, then suddenly spaced out.

Strange and weird...

"Xingxuan, is something on your mind today?"

Fu Xuan finally couldn't help but ask.

Xingxuan paused for a moment, then quickly waved her hands in denial, "Ah? Oh...no, no, hehe...nothing~"

As she spoke, she started giggling inexplicably, looking like a little girl who had fallen head over heels in love.

Fu Xuan frowned, a little worried that something might have gone wrong with her capable and competent subordinate.

"Really... you're okay? Your face is a little red, do you have a fever? If you're sick, go home and rest, get better first!"

"No... Your Excellency, actually yesterday..."

Xingxuan's face grew even rosier, and a strange ripple stirred in her clear eyes.

She spoke somewhat shyly of the beauty of the Milky Way last night, and the joy and happiness of being able to consummate her marriage with her beloved.

As Xingxuan's narration deepened, her expression became increasingly dreamy, and the happiness emanating from her almost consumed Fu Xuan.

As Fu Xuan listened quietly to her words, her face gradually turned pale. Her eyes trembled violently, and her mind was shaken.

As a learned diviner, he was naturally not so naive as to know nothing. However, knowledge is knowledge, and the formal education he learned from books is a completely different feeling from hearing others tell him about their experiences.

Fu Xuan's heart was pounding faster and louder, and her head felt like it was filled with a vortex of pink, making her feel hot and dizzy.

Xingxuan, Xingxuan… Xingxuan actually…!
