Jing Yuan stood there for a moment, then turned around and walked to the window. The morning light streamed in and shone on his shoulder.

He didn't turn around, but simply asked a question.

"Is he still at Starship Sea?"

"Yes, General, he didn't leave; he was just walking slowly along the stone railing, as if he were strolling?"

Jingyuan stroked his chin and began to ponder.

Luofu was already in chaos enough, and now the most terrifying Annihilation Lord has also arrived on Luofu...

"Could it be that Luofu... will follow in the footsteps of those immortal ships this time...?"

Just then, Qingzu arrived.

"General, it's time for you to take over from the Imperial Shipyard."

Jing Yuan nodded.

I thought the Star Train would be a surprise weapon here, but now...

Jing Yuan turned and walked towards the main seat.

The atmosphere in the main hall of the Tianbo Bureau was much more somber than on the Xingcha Sea.

Yu Kong stood in front of the main seat, his expression cold and stern, speaking to the people on the Starry Sky Train.

She saw Jing Yuan's projection walk in, paused for a moment, but did not move aside or lower her voice.

"...You shall not leave the Tianbo Bureau until the aforementioned doubts are clarified."

After speaking, he turned to Jing Yuan and nodded slightly.

"General."

Jing Yuan nodded, walked into the hall, and slowly swept his gaze over Xing, March 7, and Walter before finally landing on Yu Kong.

"There's no need to do that when it comes to flying."

His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, carrying a calm and reassuring quality.

"The Star Train has come from afar; it is a guest."

Yu Kong frowned slightly, about to speak, when Jing Yuan raised her hand slightly, a very light movement, but her words were cut off.

Jing Yuan turned to the group on the Starry Sky Train, speaking in a gentle tone, as if they were discussing something ordinary.

"Gentlemen, things have indeed been quite turbulent in Luofu lately. The Jianmu tree is acting strangely, and the star core is lurking. The Cloud Cavalry has already sealed off parts of the area."

He paused for a moment, as if considering his words.

"The current situation in Luofu has far-reaching implications. Since you are all just nameless passengers on the train, you don't need to get involved in these disputes."

On March 7th, he opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Jing Yuan continued speaking.

"I suggest that you all leave Luofu for now, take the train to the next station, and come back after things have settled down here."

Yu Kong frowned.

"Will……"

Jing Yuan turned to fly.

"Yu Kong, let them go."

Yu Kong's brows furrowed sharply, and she took a step forward.

"General! The Star Core investigation is not yet complete, and the Sky Ship Bureau's control over outsiders is..."

I said, "Let them go."

Jing Yuan's voice wasn't loud, but it was a bit deeper than before.

He interrupted Yu Kong's words, his lips moved slightly, and he looked at Jing Yuan with a calm gaze.

But there was a look in those eyes as if they were making a judgment.

Jing Yuan shook his head slightly at her, the movement small, as if to say, "Don't ask anymore."

Yu Kong stopped and didn't say anything more, but her expression clearly showed her disagreement.

Walter had been observing, and he gleaned more information from the brief silence between Jing Yuan and Yu Kong.

The tone with which General Jingyuan told them to leave was completely different from his previous suggestion that they should leave for the time being. It was less polite and more urgent.

Walter spoke.

"General, what have you found out?"

Seeing this, Jing Yuan did not answer immediately.

He stood at the window, the wind blowing in from outside.

"General."

Walter added.

"The train crew has already noticed something unusual in Luofu. If you know more information, it would be more useful to tell us than to keep it from us."

Jing Yuan's gaze fell on him and lingered for a few moments.

He glanced at Yu Kong, then at the star rafts slowly moving in the morning light in the distance outside the window.

"Yu Kong, let the others go out first."

Yu Kong looked at him, paused for a moment, then turned around and gestured for the Cloud Cavalry and civilian personnel around him to step back.

People left the hall one after another, their footsteps fading into the distance on the bluestone floor. The door closed behind the last person, making a soft sound.

Now only Jing Yuan, Yu Kong, Walter, March 7th, and Xing remain in the hall.

Jingyuan stood by the window, his back to them, as if he was organizing the order of what he wanted to say in his mind before he spoke.

"Luofu now faces more than just the problem of the star core."

He paused for a moment.

"There is someone...someone that none of us on the entire Immortal Ship want to come into contact with, who has also arrived in Luofu."

Walter's gaze sharpened slightly.

"Who is it?"

Jing Yuan remained silent for a moment.

"The Great Lord of Annihilation - Burning Wind".

The hall fell silent for a moment.

March 7th blinked.

"Extinction... Great Lord?"

She glanced at Xing, as if to confirm that she had heard correctly, then turned to look at Jing Yuan.

"Is he one of those legendary... really powerful villains?"

Jing Yuan turned around, his gaze sweeping over each of their faces.

"He's the most dangerous kind. His goal is never to occupy, negotiate, or anything that requires communication. Wherever he appears, that place disappears. There are no exceptions. I'm sure you have some records of this on your train."

Walter's voice was a little deeper than before: "Are you sure it's him?"

Jing Yuan didn't answer directly. He walked to the side wall and pressed a spot on the wall.

The wall slid open silently, revealing a light screen embedded in the wall.

The image shows only a single, bright white dot of light moving away, its edges edged with a layer of dim golden embers.

After that point of light swept past the edge of the galaxy, the entire galaxy began to crack open from the inside.

The image froze on the spreading cloud of debris. Jing Yuan withdrew his hand and looked at Walter.

"Luofu is currently under immense pressure from both the unusual activity at Jianmu and the lurking presence in the star core. If he makes any move..."

Walter also remembered the figure he had seen outside.

I wasn't wrong after all...

Walter stood in the hall, his gaze shifting from the frozen fragment of cloud on the screen.

He remained silent for a moment, not responding to Jing Yuan immediately.

Instead, he took out his phone and called Himeko.

He didn't try to hide it from those present and spoke directly into the communicator.

"Himeko, are you there?"

There was a brief silence on the other end of the communicator, followed by a slightly drowsy voice, as if the person had just woken up.

"Walter? What's wrong? Did you encounter something in Luofu?"

Something happened.

Walter's voice was deeper than usual.

"General Jingyuan revealed some information to us... The Great Lord of Annihilation, Burning Wind, is currently in Luofu."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the communicator. Then the voice sounded again, the drowsiness completely gone.

"...Foehn? Are you sure?"

"Yes, it's basically correct."

There was silence on the other end of the communicator for a few more moments.

Himeko's voice came again, this time slower than before.

"What do you plan to do?"

Walter remained silent for a moment.

I'd like to ask for your opinion.

"Is the current state of the train crew suitable for getting involved in this situation?"
