"Gentlemen, let's put aside our reminiscing for now."

Jingyuan gestured to the train crew to focus on the immediate matter, since he was actually more eager than anyone else to reminisce about the past.

No matter how urgent the urge, the impulse must be suppressed.

The responsibilities on the general's shoulders did not allow him to focus his energy on pursuing the illusory outside at this time.

"When you arrived in Luofu, you said that the train group came to resolve the Star Core Cataclysm. At that time, Jing Yuan did not dare to agree because he suspected that the Star Core Hunters had other intentions."

"In hindsight, I was worrying too much."

"It is true that the Star Core Hunter has ulterior motives. She sent you all here to deliberately escalate the situation so that you would fight alongside the Immortal Ship."

"Now that things have come to this, your sincerity is beyond question... Luofu owes you all a debt of gratitude and should not ask for anything more."

"But as Fu Qing said, Huanlong's appearance has made the situation uncontrollable. For some reasons, I have to borrow Danheng's power, and I also ask everyone to do their best to help."

Jing Yuan's words were sincere and straightforward, without any attempt to conceal or beat around the bush.

Walter nodded slightly and looked around at his companions, including Qi Zhimu.

"Even if the crisis in Luofu is unrelated to the Star Core, I would not stand idly by, given my personality. However, my will alone cannot represent the Star Train."

"Explore, understand, establish, connect... These eight words encapsulate the pioneering creed of the train corps. The journey is arduous, and to uphold them is as difficult as climbing to heaven."

"Fear, danger, enemies, death... all sorts of obstacles stand in the way of the journey, and only a handful of nameless travelers can make it to the end."

"Whether to move forward or leave, the nameless traveler should choose his own destination... just like casting his own vote when deciding on a destination on a train."

Walter reached out first, but unexpectedly, Qi Zhimu reached out his hand almost at the same time.

The thought of his identity as a patrolling sea knight dispelled the surprise in my heart.

It is worth noting that many years ago, the Sea Patrol Knight wrote a resume that shocked the universe—assassinating the former Destruction Commander, Zhu Luo.

Even though the price paid was heavy, they still succeeded.

It can be said that the Sea Rangers and the Destruction Faction have a natural hatred for each other.

Qi Zhimu's positive attitude is reasonable and justifiable.

With both Xing and March 7th agreeing, Dan Heng glanced at Jing Yuan and finally reached out his hand.

"Thank you, Danheng," Jingyuan said sincerely.

"I agreed to help not because of the many causes and effects of the past, but to uphold the creed of being an anonymous person, and also to fulfill my responsibility to the covenant party as a descendant of the Vidyadhara."

That's good.

Jing Yuan smiled, his gaze immediately and subtly landing on Qi Zhimu's face.

"Thank you all for your help to Luofu."

"No need for thanks. To be honest, General Jingyuan, I have a grudge against destruction. I was a little unable to move when I heard the name Huanlong..." Qi Zhimu raised the corner of his mouth.

If it weren't for the two hunters going mad, the leader retiring, and Luofu being invaded by the Great Lord of Annihilation, the high and low would not have been able to reunite.

However, the overall situation of the wandering knights is not very good right now.

Therefore, Qi Zhimu did not intend to call on any of his colleagues for help.

Jing Yuan smiled outwardly, but inwardly he was experiencing a mix of emotions.

The underlying meaning of the grandmaster's words is obvious...

Destroying enemies is equivalent to personal grudges. It's like settling scores with Huanlong; it's a personal act, and helping Luofu is just a side benefit. There's no need to feel indebted to anyone.

If the Grandmaster still considered himself a member of the Immortal Ship, he probably wouldn't have said that.

The Immortal Boat Alliance is a murky place. The merits and demerits of our master are still controversial within the alliance. It's not a bad thing to draw a line to avoid further entanglements.

Once upon a time, in his youth, he dreamed of becoming a seafaring knight-errant, wandering the galaxy, punishing evil and upholding justice.

Unfortunately, it was destined never to happen.

If only my grandmaster were a wandering knight-errant, then he could take on the responsibility of guiding his grand-disciples.

but……

Jing Yuan did not detect a single fabricated excuse in Qi Zhimu's words.

It seems that he... truly has a blood feud with destruction.

Considering the similar nature and behavior of the Destruction Legion and the Abundant Fel, Jing Yuan felt relieved.

However, Jing Yuan did not expect that Qi Zhimu was indeed a sea patrol knight.

On March 7th, after learning about the conflict between Qi Zhimu and Destruction, what intrigued her even more was Dan Heng's past entanglements with Luo Fu.

However, she knew it wasn't the right time to ask, but she was still very happy to hear Dan Heng call himself an anonymous guest.

"Excellent! Everyone is as righteous as they were when we arrived. So, General, what brilliant plan do you have next?"

"There's no brilliant plan, only a gamble: that Dan Heng can still regain the Dragon Lord's memories..."

At this point, Jing Yuan had many thoughts on his mind and added a few more words.

—The gambling master's strength was unexpectedly strong.

If, like back then, he possesses strength comparable to the Commander, and with the assistance of the Wisdom Dragon Lord, Huanlong would surely be in deep trouble.

If one doesn't possess the strength of an envoy... then forget it...

Even though he knew the enemy was a messenger of destruction, his master's face was still full of confidence, so there was no need to worry.

From his youth until now, his master has always been an image of someone who plans ahead and never does anything without certainty.

He is also an idol to many Cloud Riders, and has had a lasting influence on many people.

Today, Yaoqing and the Luofu Immortal Boat army share a common motto: "Those who are Cloud Riders should cherish the ambition of swift blood and burning rainbows."

Of the countless heroes of the Xianzhou expedition, only a handful have received this honor.

This clearly shows just how much the later generations of Yunqi revered and worshipped their ancestor.

…Although the crimes committed by the Grandmaster, such as tampering with the Jianmu tree and activating the Free Manifestation, have not been made public, in hindsight, the benefits far outweigh the drawbacks.

The effect of great figures can bring tremendous cohesion and can even influence the overall beliefs of an entire race.

A sense of pride from the heart can unite the will of all Cloud Riders and unleash their greater strength.

Take, for example, the Third Abundant People's War that broke out 30 years ago in Fanghu Xianzhou.

Even though there was no sudden order to influence the situation in that battle, the losses still exceeded those of the previous two.

If it weren't for those Cloud Cavalry who held firm to their positions with unwavering faith and fearlessness, Fang Hu and all the reinforcements would have been wiped out before the Emperor lowered his gaze and unleashed his arrows.

According to the contemporary General Yaoqing, the former General Yue Yuming knew about the crimes committed by his master, but still regarded his master as an idol and recognized his will.

—The same goes for myself.

Jingyuan could see him just by turning his head, and he felt incredibly relaxed.

It's not that I blindly believe I can safely defeat Huanlong, but rather that I have developed a belief that even if Mount Tai were to press down on me, I would not be afraid to move forward.

When his master was still alive, Jingyuan didn't understand that feeling for a long time.

I only understood after witnessing his departure with my own eyes, and now I understand it even more deeply.

Thinking of this, Jing Yuan smiled, as carefree as he had been when he had completed his studies and joined the army hundreds of years ago, winning a brilliant victory.
