Starry Sky Railway: No one understands the Amber King better than me.

"Representative Lin, I have already informed the Sichen Palace, and a ferryman will come to guide us shortly."

Mu Zheng walked to the railing high on Xingchahai, bowed and clasped his hands in a gesture of respect to report to Lin Yuan.

"Thank you for your trouble."

Lin Yuan turned slightly to the side, leaving the vast sea of ​​clouds behind him.

Their team had been significantly streamlined; with the exception of a few people, the rest of the company specialists had been sent back by Lin Yuan to perform their respective duties.

Otherwise, with so many people coming to Sichen Palace in such a grand manner, people might think the company is there to force the emperor to abdicate.

.............

Lin Yuan was standing in the square in front of Sichen Palace, looking down at the crowds below.

Has something important happened on the Immortal Ship recently?

Although there is singing and dancing, laughter and joy before my eyes.

However, Lin Yuan could keenly observe that armored and armed Yun cavalrymen were vigilantly scanning every passerby at key points along the passage, creating a situation that appeared relaxed on the outside but was actually tense on the inside.

"Uh... sir, you are unaware of this."

Mu Zheng lowered his voice slightly.

"It is said that a Star Core Hunter smuggled Star Cores into the Immortal Ship, and the Immortal Ship claims that one person has been captured."

But I have inside information that the Star Core Hunter seems to have been rescued. Now, both the Star Core and the Hunter are missing, and the main force of the Cloud Cavalry is deploying a full-scale search.

Our arrival at this time is likely to arouse suspicion from the Celestial Ship. Please consider this carefully.

Lin Yuan glanced at him and smiled.

"It's alright, we're here for cooperation, and it's perfectly aboveboard."

As he spoke, his gaze suddenly fixed on the ground below.

Meanwhile, at the Sichen Palace behind them, a fox-woman was walking towards them, but was stopped by two guards in company uniforms.

"Let her come over."

Upon seeing this, Mu Zheng quickly stepped forward to greet him.

"The company is making quite a big fuss!"

The fox-woman thought to herself, then walked expressionlessly to Mu Zheng's side.

"Are you the company representative?"

"How dare I? I am just a lowly soldier under Lord Lin's command."

Upon hearing this, Mu Zheng quickly stepped aside. The fox-woman looked up and saw a tall figure leaning against the railing, gazing into the distance.

Upon hearing the noise, the figure turned around.

"So young!"

This was her first impression.

As the ferryman of the Tianbo Bureau, Xiwei had received countless guests from various factions in the past.

However, it is truly rare for someone so young to be appointed as an envoy of a powerful force.

Upon closer inspection, although the person in front of him looked young, he was not dressed in the attire of the Immortal Ship.

However, she possessed a certain aura that was quite intimidating, a feeling she had only experienced from some important figures.

Seeing this, Xi Wei abandoned her previous casualness and bowed gracefully:

"Distinguished guests, I am Xi Wei, the ferryman of the Tianbo Bureau. Lord Yu Kong has been waiting for you at Sichen Palace for quite some time."

"It won't be long before we can witness the magnificent scenery and people of the Immortal Ship."

Lin Yuan waved his hand with a smile, withdrawing his gaze from the distance.

"Then I'll trouble Miss Xiwei to lead the way."

"Please come with me."

..............

On the central thoroughfare of the Star Chariot Sea, Yan Qing's face showed a look of doubt.

"I have a feeling that person has noticed me?"

Yanqing pondered as he walked forward. Upon seeing this, the Cloud Knights on both sides quickly drew their swords and saluted.

"Valiant Guard".

"Hello, Xiaowei!"

Hearing the noise, Yanqing stopped in her tracks.

"Please don't stand on ceremony, everyone. I've just arrived and have something to discuss with you."

"Lord Xiaowei, please ask whatever you wish!"

"How long have those company envoys been here?"

"Well, it should only take about half an hour."

The Cloud Rider beside him pondered before answering.

"Then... is there anything unusual?"

"Nothing unusual so far. We've already given instructions from above, and the brothers have been keeping a close eye on us."

The Cloud Riders burst into hearty laughter.

"Thank you all for your hard work."

"Hey, Xiaowei, you've worked hard too. We're working hard for the Immortal Ship!"

Yanqing bowed, waved, and left.

The boy walked confidently down the road, feeling a surge of energy, yet finding no outlet for it.

"The general still thinks I'm the same as before, but little does he know that Yanqing also understands the principle of knowing oneself and one's enemy, and thus winning every battle. Hmph, I will definitely prove to the general that Yanqing is no less than anyone else!"

The young guard's thoughts flashed through his mind, and he exuded an imposing aura.

"This company envoy has some connections, but he's already inside the Si Chen Palace, so let's put him on hold for now. Where have those Star Core Hunters gone?"

Yanqing scratched his head, feeling a sense of frustration, like searching for a needle in a haystack.

"It's really frustrating to have so much energy but nowhere to use it."

He sighed softly, feeling that even before he had become a general, he could already sense the weariness caused by the general's numerous official duties.

"Ding--"

Beside him, a gentle murmur like flowing spring water rang out, and Yanqing smiled as he flicked his sword.

"Are you lonely too?"

Meanwhile, at the Yunqi outpost that Yanqing had just passed, a Yunqi soldier dressed as a captain was intently watching the boy's back.

A cold gaze was hidden beneath the helmet, and a voice as faint as a mosquito's buzz rang out.

"The future Sword Master? Hmph!"

...............

After passing through several checkpoints guarded by cloud riders, the group arrived at the gate of Sichen Palace.

As the tallest building in the entire Star Chariot Sea, Lin Yuan looked up and saw its roof reaching straight into the azure sky.

On either side of the tall gate are two imposing stone lions with different shapes, and the pearls under their paws are as big as a normal person.

"Please, everyone."

Xi Wei stopped, stood to the side, and gestured for him to enter.

Lin Yuan greeted the people behind him and stepped through the gate first.

Upon entering, dozens of steps leading upwards block the view.

Lin Yuan was speechless at the sight; even the simple steps of the Immortal Boat contained a psychological suggestion.

But when in Rome, do as the Romans do. With a light laugh, Lin Yuan climbed the steps.

Stepping onto the platform's thick, luxurious green carpet, one is immediately met with the imposing figures of the Cloud Riders standing on either side, who cast disdainful glances their way.

The gleaming array blades reflected the figures of the newcomers, who appeared as fierce as celestial warriors.

Unfortunately, while this method might be quite effective for some interstellar natives, it was nothing more than a gentle breeze for Lin Yuan.

Looking up, one sees the extremely spacious hall of the Sichen Palace.

At the very center is a huge simulation sand table composed of projections.

On both sides, holographic plants emitting blue light are lush and green, and under the plants are various high-tech control panels.

The staff of the Imperial Shipyard sat upright in their chairs, all looking at the same direction.

And from the second, third, and even higher floors, countless gazes were cast upon them.

The entire Sichen Palace was shrouded in a solemn silence, with an invisible pressure surrounding it, much like the imperial court.

"Lord Yukong, the company's special envoy and others have been brought here."

Xi Wei walked to the high platform directly in front of her, bowed, and quietly stepped back.

Lin Yuan walked down to the foot of the platform, looked up, and was met by the blue-haired fox-man captain.

"Greetings, guests of Interstellar Peace Corporation."

Upon seeing Lin Yuanwang, Yu Kong spoke with dignified composure.

"I have long heard that the Immortal Shipyard is a land of etiquette. Today, I have truly experienced its hospitality firsthand."

Lin Yuan's lips curled slightly, his reply a mixture of admiration and awe.

Yu Kong's eyes flickered slightly, but his expression remained calm.

"When guests arrive from afar on our celestial ship, we should treat them with the utmost courtesy. As the captain of the Tianbo Company, matters related to cooperation with the company are generally handled by designated personnel."

But since you are all distinguished guests, I should personally meet with you.
