Walter watched Lu Li and March 7 fooling around and pushed up his glasses.

In the end, they didn't say anything more.

He knew perfectly well that Lu Li's explanation was full of holes.

Asking for directions, falling in love at first sight, saving the world... these kinds of things might fool March 7th and Star.

That woman... barring any unforeseen circumstances.

It's most likely Kaffa.

Valte nodded, recalling what had happened on the Star Train.

Ok.

After all, only that eccentric, unconventional Star Core Hunter would do something like this.

But why did she approach Lu Li alone?

And Lu Li... Did he deliberately stay behind because he knew Kafka would come looking for him?

Why would Lu Li, who clearly showed extreme resistance and wariness towards Kafka on the train, stay and be alone with her?

Walter fell into deep thought.

The "past lives" exposed by the sky curtain, and Kafka's obsessive and pathological feelings for Lu Li.

And then there are the layers upon layers of mystery surrounding Lu Li...

He felt like he understood this young man less and less.

However, there is one thing he is certain of.

Although Lu Li jokingly called the train crew salted fish, deep down he absolutely trusted and was willing to protect them.

otherwise.

He wouldn't use that lame excuse to send them away at the gates of Sichen Palace and go to face Kafka alone.

Thinking of this, Walter sighed inwardly.

Never mind, the children are all grown up now.

They all have their own secrets.

As long as Lu Li is still willing to stay on the train and still willing to call him "Uncle Yang".

That's enough.

Walter never expected this.

Lu Li knew Jing Yuan would show up midway, and he deliberately made an excuse to stay behind just to avoid Jing Yuan, which led him to encounter Kafka...

"Okay, stop fooling around."

Walter spoke, stopping the two who were fooling around.

Lu Li awkwardly removed his hand from covering San Yueqi's mouth.

March 7th was panting heavily, fanning himself with his hand while glaring angrily at Lu Li.

"Lu Li! You're committing murder!"

"Ahem, it was a mistake, purely a mistake," Lu Liqian apologized with a smile.

March 7th, having escaped Lu Li's clutches, threw herself into Xing's arms, hugging her with a tearful expression.

"Waaaaah... Xing, Lu Li just now... I wasn't clean..."

Xing gently patted March 7's head: "It's okay, and it was March's fault."

March 7th: "?"

Why are you still on Lu Li's side?

Your best friend is fake, isn't she?!

Watching this scene, Tingyun covered her mouth and chuckled, "The friendship among you benefactors is truly wonderful."

Her smile remained sweet, but her eyes darted back and forth between Lu Li, as if she were lost in thought.

Lu Li's heart skipped a beat.

This Huanlong is definitely not someone to be trifled with.

His actions just now had probably aroused her suspicion.

No, I need to find a way to change the subject.

"Um, Uncle Yang," Lu Li cleared his throat.

"Now that we've obtained the permission to proceed, shouldn't we find a place to properly discuss the plan to capture Kafka?"

"Yes, you're right." Walter glanced at Lu Li and nodded. "We do need a quiet place to sort out our thoughts."

"And..." He glanced at March 7th and Xing beside him, "After a busy morning, everyone must be hungry."

Upon hearing there was food, March 7th's eyes lit up immediately: "Yes, yes, yes! I'm starving!"

"I want to try Xianzhou's specialty dishes!"

Xing nodded in agreement, looking at Tingyun with anticipation.

Tingyun smiled and said, "In that case, how about I treat you all to a meal at the most famous 'Never-Sleeping Marquis' in Star Chariot Sea?"

"The dishes there combine the specialties of the Six Offices of the Immortal Boat, which should suit everyone's taste."

"Yay!" March 7th and Star cheered immediately.

Lu Li felt his eyelid twitch.

Should we go to "The Never-Sleeping Marquis" for dinner?

This name sounds familiar... Oh right!

He remembered that the Five Heroes of the Clouds often stood here in the sky...

"My benefactor Lu Li?" Tingyun asked, puzzled, seeing that he hadn't reacted for a while. "Don't you like him?"

"Huh? No, no." Lu Li snapped out of his reverie and quickly waved his hand. "I was just thinking about some things."

Tingyun smiled slightly: "That's good. Then this humble woman will lead the way. Please follow me, my benefactors."

Looking at Tingyun, who was leading the way, Lu Li narrowed his eyes slightly.

Was it a coincidence that I went to the Marquis of Nevernight?

Or has Tingyun already guessed his identity...?

Lu Li sighed inwardly.

But it's only been a short time since we got off the train.

She kissed Kafka, was pursued by Yanqing, and was interrogated by Baiheng.

We also have to deal with that old fox, Huanlong...

Lu Li felt like his CPU was about to burn out.

However, knowing the plot to come, he could roughly guess that Tingyun was still only suspicious at the moment.

Moreover, she wouldn't act rashly in order to complete her plan.

Therefore, this meal is very likely not a trap, and he can rest and sort out his thoughts.

This is probably the only good news since we arrived at Louvre.

"Lu Li, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and catch up!"

March 7th's excited voice came over.

Lu Li: "..."

I really wish I could have another day like March 7th, with my mind completely blank, without having to think about anything.

Lu Li sighed resignedly and followed at the back of the group.

Not long after.

Led by Tingyun, the group walked through the bustling streets of Xingchahai.

Soon they arrived at a restaurant that looked very upscale.

"The Lord of Never Sleeps".

Three large, elegant characters hung on the plaque.

The restaurant was bustling with noise and excitement.

Tingyun is clearly a regular here.

She spoke a few words to the waiter at the door and was soon led to a private room by the window.

The private room was large and decorated in an antique style.

Through the window, you can see starships flying by outside.

Everyone took their seats in turn.

March 7th and Xing couldn't wait to pick up the menu and start studying it excitedly.

Walter and Tingyun chatted politely, and the atmosphere seemed fairly harmonious.

It must be said that, although Miss Huanlong is the main villain...

But when he disguises himself as Tingyun, he is exactly the same as the real Tingyun. He has high emotional intelligence and is also very understanding.

Lu Li was thus able to relax for once.

Although I don't know what will happen next.

But since we can rest, we should definitely rest properly.

They were still ordering food on March 7th.

Lu Li stretched and leaned comfortably against the window, watching the crowds passing by below.

Because of the presence of Yunqi Army troops, this is a safe zone.

Therefore, although there was unrest among the demon soldiers at the port, this place remained peaceful as usual.

The Lord of Never Sleeps... I truly miss him.

Bai Heng's nostalgic voice echoed in his mind.

Lu Li asked curiously, "Bai Heng, has he changed from the Marquis of Nevernight you remember?"

Although it still retains some of my memories, the changes are truly significant, for example...

The furnishings, the storefront, the surrounding scenery...

As Bai Heng explained in detail the differences between the Marquis of Nevernight and the one she remembered, Lu Li nodded inwardly from time to time.

But thinking about it, it makes sense, considering that seven hundred years have already passed.

The people in the Nevernight Marquis's mansion may have changed several times over, so changes are normal.

but……

Listening to Bai Heng's voice, which was both nostalgic and somewhat happy.

Lu Li smiled.

Bai Heng seems very happy to be able to return to Luofu and to the place where the Five Heroes of the Clouds used to gather...

He was just about to tell Bai Heng not to get excited.

suddenly.

Perhaps sensing something, Lu Li's heart skipped a beat.

He subconsciously looked up at the street below.

At the end of the street, a slightly familiar figure came into view.

She was a woman with long, light blue-gray hair.

The woman was dressed in a celestial boat-style outfit in frosty white and dark blue, with black eye patches featuring silver moon patterns on her eyes.

What is most striking is that although she has an empty black scabbard at her waist, she also carries a long sword as tall as herself on her back, housed in a scabbard that appears to be forged from ice.

Moreover, although the woman wore a black blindfold to cover her eyes, she seemed to still be able to see, avoiding the passing crowds as she slowly walked towards the Nightless Lord.

Her steps were slow, but each step seemed to align with Lu Li's heartbeat.

The chilling, bone-piercing sword intent, which seemed to freeze the soul, made him feel suffocated even from this distance.

is her!

Lu Li's pupils dilated instantly, and his blood seemed to freeze at that moment.

Without thinking, he grabbed the menu on the table and slammed it open, using it to completely cover his face.

What the hell!

No, I just want to have a meal and rest.

Why is this woman here?!
