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

"I've shed blood and sweat for the Immortal Ship, for goodness' sake! And you won't even give me the slightest bit of face."

Hearing his dissatisfied tone, Jing Yuan smiled.

"Heh... When was the last time you led a team out to clear out the enemy? How could she possibly know?"

"Then why did you throw me into that tabushi place! A bunch of weirdos, and that tabushi is a petty woman. Wouldn't I just be tortured there?"

Yu Chen glared at him.

“…I think you’ll be grateful to me someday~” Jing Yuan said with a strange expression and a happy smile.

"Thank you my foot!"

A peanut flew towards General Jing like a bullet, and he caught it between his two hands in mid-air and tossed it into his mouth.

Crispy and delicious.

Yu Chen was picked up by Yu Sheng; this directionally challenged person can't even recognize the way when he's sober.

Not to mention what happened after he squandered all the good wine in the general's mansion and became a drunken fool.

"Diviner...give me...the wine! Hand it over..."

Yu Sheng carried the drunkard on his back and walked slowly down the road.

The sky had darkened, and countless brilliant stars paved the way, making it easy to see ahead even without the moon.

"Sir, please don't vomit on my back."

"Hehe...you're quite good-looking~"

"Master Fu is not interested in men, my lord."

"You're talking nonsense! I... ugh... am so handsome!" The mumbled words came out of his mouth.

Yu Sheng sighed helplessly: "Really, don't throw up, it's disgusting."

Once aboard the Starship, Yu Sheng became even more worried that he would ejaculate.

Fortunately, he seemed to have fallen asleep. Yu Chen lay limp and lifeless to one side, showing no other reaction.

He slept soundly until noon the next day. Yu Chen rubbed his messy hair, yawned, and staggered out of the house.

"Yusheng... when is it?"

He squinted as he went into the living room, poured himself a cup of tea, and gulped it down.

But surprisingly, no one inside the house responded to him.

Yu Chen sighed and touched his stomach, feeling a little hungry.

He dragged a chair, slowly pulled it into the courtyard, and threw it down.

He then went to the pool to rinse his mouth and wash his face.

He only regained his senses after being slurped up with cold water.

He stretched and sat down in the yard, basking in the sun and waiting for Yusheng, who had disappeared somewhere, to come back and cook for him.

This is the daily life of a lazy person.

As if responding to his call, Yu Sheng soon walked in from the doorway.

Looking at his master, who was swaying back and forth in the armchair, Yu Sheng sighed.

He's been in seclusion for decades, and he's still the same.

"Where did you go, Yusheng?"

Yu Chen shouted without opening his eyes.

"The Grand Diviner has summoned you, Your Excellency. Grand Diviner Fu requests that you come to see her."

Yu Sheng responded calmly.

The swaying armchair beneath Yu Chen froze strangely in place. His brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes slowly opened.

Those dark, deep eyes seemed to devour light like an abyss. He sat up and looked at Yu Sheng with a headache.

"Why did she call me over? Is she trying to get my wages back? I'd rather die than do it!"

Yu Sheng sighed, looking at his parents with a somewhat speechless expression.

"The Grand Diviner wouldn't be so petty. It seems she has something important to discuss with you."

Yu Chen opened his mouth, then asked somewhat impatiently, "Is it a big problem if we don't go?"

Yu Sheng glanced at him and said indifferently, "This subordinate does not know. This subordinate only knows that the Grand Diviner's Office is right behind our house. It's only a ten-minute round trip."

"Sigh... I know, I know, I'll go."

Yu Chen sighed helplessly and stood up.

He touched his empty stomach; he hadn't even eaten anything that day.

He got up and walked towards the door, but as he passed Yu Sheng, Yu Sheng grabbed his sleeve.

He sighed and said, "Sir, at least shave your beard... Your current appearance... is not quite appropriate."

It's a feeling that's hard to put into words.

Yu Chen touched his chin, feeling a little embarrassed.

I didn't pay much attention to it yesterday, but he brought it up suddenly this time.

Yu Chen wandered over to the mirror and looked at himself.

Aside from being a bit messy, he also has a strange mature male charm.

It's a bit too long, I'll shave it...

He shaved his beard and then had his head washed by Yu Sheng.

Yu Chen successfully transformed from a down-on-his-luck middle-aged man into a handsome young man.

Yu Sheng waved goodbye to him with a kind expression.

That's more like it. He's clearly quite good-looking, but he still can't understand why his master always looks so dejected and downcast.

Over the years, I've never thought about finding a mistress.

The person he spends the most time with is actually General Jingyuan, which is really worrying.

Yu Chen stood at the entrance of the Taibu Si (a government office) and sighed deeply.

Fu Xuan is indeed beautiful, but the thought of her causing him trouble gives him a headache.

So, that damned Jingyuan...

Chapter 9 Be My Secretary

The same applies to the Grand Diviner's Office and other offices.

There was a decent-looking building on the outside, but the inside was a completely different world.

Well, a true grotto-heaven (it's hard to judge the one in the game, but the book is the standard, so there shouldn't be any problems; anything different is considered a fan creation).

The main urban area of ​​Luofu is visible on the surface, but it secretly hides various hidden wonders, and its actual area is much larger than it appears on the surface.

After he entered, someone questioned him about his identity. After he revealed it, the girl with a double-bun hairstyle gave him a strange look and then led the way forward.

Yu Chen was a little confused by the strange look in her eyes, but she didn't pay it any mind. She looked around at the scenery in the Tai Bu Cave Heaven while leisurely following the girl who was leading the way to find Fu Xuan.

He acted like a tourist, not like an employee at all.

Looking out at the battlefield, Fu Xuan was frowning and deep in thought when she suddenly turned her head as if she had anticipated something.

A familiar yet unfamiliar figure was brought over.

"My Lord, Mr. Yu Chen has arrived."

After the two women who had led the way finished their report, they withdrew.

Yu Chen shifted his gaze from the surrounding scenery to Fu Xuan's face, and greeted her with a smile: "Yo~ Miss Fu!"

"Who told you to call me 'girl'..." Fu Xuan frowned slightly, then carefully observed the person in front of him and asked uncertainly.

"Are you Yu Chen?"

It's not that she's not smart enough to remember someone she just met yesterday.

This guy is really too different after his makeover.

The man before me was dressed in simple clothes that accentuated his tall and slender figure. His angular face was as cold and sculpted as if it were made up, and his deep black eyes held a faint smile. If he were to put on a serious face, he would be an extremely aloof and handsome man.

However, his inexplicably listless and lazy demeanor made him seem much more approachable.

His hair, which had previously been disheveled and resembled that of a beggar, was now neatly styled. His long, jet-black hair cascaded down his back, with two strands of black hair falling to his chest, swaying gently like dragon whiskers.

Fu Xuan's brows furrowed deeper and deeper as she wondered—could a person's appearance really vary so much?

The only thing he has in common with yesterday is probably his relaxed demeanor.

"Ahem, absolutely genuine!"

Yu Chen smiled slightly as he looked at her.
