I'm in Star Iron, and I draw power from the Inner World every week.

Jing Liu glared at Su Yang.

"I haven't really had a proper chance to explore this place since I got here. When I was helping out before, it was all rushed, but now it feels much more real... And Master, you don't seem to mind too much, do you?"

"Tsk."

Jingliu didn't feel any aversion. After all, she had experienced Su Yang's [reply], and her mental state was very stable. Even if she saw something that reminded her of the past, she wouldn't feel too bad. At most, she would feel a little sentimental.

"Master, should I tell Jingyuan about our relationship later?"

"do not."

"Hmm? What's wrong? Jingyuan is also my senior brother, so I feel like there's no problem with us being open about our identities."

"So, all you think of me is the bond between master and disciple?"

"That's not true. I actually crave Master's body more."

"...So, under this premise, you still intend to acknowledge Jing Yuan as your senior brother?"

"Oh."

Su Yang nodded, only then realizing what was happening.

He was supposed to be a senior disciple of Jing Yuan, but now that their relationship as fellow disciples has been confirmed, things will only get more awkward later.

It is still clear and transparent like a mirror.

"Huh? Does Master's statement mean he agrees with my ideas?"

"No, I just wanted you to think about it more."

"Really not?"

"...What a thick skin."

Jing Liu snorted coldly, ignored Su Yang, and walked forward on his own.

Su Yang followed closely behind, completely abandoning all pretense of modesty, and once again took Jing Liu's small hand.

"Tsk."

Jing Liu didn't shake off Su Yang either, he just kept looking at him with disgust.

"Hey."

.....

The master and apprentice finally arrived at their destination, the Pill Cauldron Division.

"Wow, this feels great."

A faint fragrance of cinnamon wafted in the air, which, combined with the ancient buildings, instantly created a wonderful atmosphere.

Jingliu, however, didn't seem to care.

However, both master and apprentice looked at the little farce not far away.

A petite dragon girl is being chased by several enlightened alchemists.

"Hehehe! You think you can catch me? I'm off to get some burgers and bubble tea, and nobody can stop me!"

Little White Dew made faces at the 'bad guy' behind her as she scurried away.

“…”

Su Yang looked at Jing Liu without saying a word.

Jing Liu glared back at Su Yang with displeasure:

Why are you looking at your teacher?

"Won't Master care?"

"Thanks to you, I am in good spirits and have no crazy thoughts. As for the little one, it is best that she is safe and sound."

"Actually..."

"You don't need to do anything extra. If you use your supernatural powers without permission, don't blame me for disowning you as a wicked disciple."

"Ok."

Su Yang was certainly aware of Bai Heng's situation.

Theoretically speaking, he could work with Ellie to recreate 'Bai Heng' just like the Milky Way Pharos did, with little risk.

But with Bai Lu herself still alive and kicking, it would be somewhat eerie to revive Bai Heng like this, and it would also make some things more complicated.

However, being a man of justice, he wouldn't let the cute little guy be chased like that.

"Master, I will leave for a while. Please stay here and do not move."

“…”

After giving Jing Liu some instructions, Su Yang used a Golden Silk Hundred Realms Gate to travel to a dark corner, and then summoned back the crotch that had been left far away in the room.

He gripped his crotch, his expression becoming incredibly resolute.

"Whip-Clad Hero, transform!"

As Su Yang chanted, his crotch opened, and the weapon inside began to grow wildly.

The whip-like armor was quickly ready, and Su Yang took out Hagiville's mask again as the final transformation.

The Whip-Clad Hero makes his grand entrance!

The righteous whip-wielding hero instantly returned to Jing Liu's side using the Golden Silk Hundred Realms Gate.

“…”

Jing Liu had somewhat anticipated Su Yang's actions, so he wasn't too surprised. He simply crossed his arms and silently watched Su Yang.

"Master, would you like to come along?"

Su Yang pointed in the direction Bai Lu had fled.

"I'll just watch from a distance and give you a good show."

"Oh."

Su Yang nodded, turned around, and shouted:

"3D motion device!"

In an instant, countless threads surged out, and Su Yang was also sent flying.

[Abundance] and [Romance] are integrated into one, and underwear and weapons are integrated into one.

His golden threads resembled chicken shreds, possessing a stronger and more vibrant effect, and were incredibly swift.

Su Yang instantly caught up with Xiao Bailu and the two alchemists who were chasing her.

boom!

As he landed, everyone present was stunned.

"It's Whip-Clad Hero!"

"Wow, he's a real chivalrous hero! He helped me move my things that day!"

"Huh? Is the Whip-Clad Hero really the legendary [Envoy of Abundance]?"

"Nonsense! This aura is unmistakably genuine."

The two alchemists from the Alchemy Department were also stunned.

After all, [Fruitful Envoy Whip-Wearing Hero] is now their boss's superior. Although they haven't met yet, they have already been instructed by Chief Dan many times and have memorized it.

"Is it a little inappropriate for me to pursue this cute little girl?"

"Lord Whip-Wearing Hero, this Dragon Girl..."

One of the alchemists was about to explain when his companion nudged him with his elbow and then quickly forced a smile:

"Sir, you must have something to discuss with the Dragon Girl, right? We won't disturb you any longer, we'll leave now."

“…”

Watching the two slink away, Su Yang didn't bother to complain anymore, and instead looked at Xiao Bailu:

"Are you OK?"

"Huh? You're helping me?"

Little Bailu blinked her adorable eyes, looked Su Yang up and down, and then asked:

"So you're the [Benevolent Envoy Whip-Subduing Hero] that's been all over the news these past few days? You look pretty handsome, I approve of you!"

Su Yang's cool armor, if you ignore the construction issues, does look really cool.

Combined with his mask that concealed his appearance, it was a sure-fire kill.

"Wow, that's my honor. So now that you're out of trouble, what's next?"

"Hehe, this young lady is going to eat and drink to her heart's content, and then go to Changletian for some fun. Anyway, thank you, Whip-Wearing Hero."

"She's kind of cute," Su Yang thought, wanting to pat Bai Lu's head.

But he couldn't bring himself to do it until Xiaobailu ran away.

Because not far away, Jingliu kept his gaze fixed on him.

"...Master, I have no interest in the little guy."

Su Yang went to Jing Liu's side to stack armor.

"Tsk, hard to say."

Chapter 13 mission timed out.

Inside the Dan Ding Division.

The group of alchemists stood in neat rows.

Their expressions were serious, their eyes resolute, as if they had made a firm decision.

Where their gazes were directed, a mysterious masked man clad in sacred and abundant armor sat upright.

Jing Liu sat beside Su Yang, while Dan Shu waited respectfully on the other side.

He glanced around and nodded slightly:

"Please don't be shy, everyone. I'm just here to see if you have any problems."

"You're joking. It should be us who do our best for you."

Dan Shu was somewhat apprehensive.

"I'm not pretentious and don't need any special ceremony. Just be normal and treat me like an ordinary person."

Su Yang repeatedly emphasized that Dan Shu's brain circuits were also rapidly opening up.

She knew that Su Yang was a gentle person, but she also knew that Su Yang was a philosopher with great wisdom.

This move is probably not simply a gesture of goodwill, but rather a subtle attempt to get rid of everyone.

Dan Shu felt that he was gradually understanding everything.

"Please disperse for now. I will convey Lord Whip-Subduing Hero's message to you later."

Judging from the publicly available information from the Immortal Ship, and from Su Yang's behavior...

Dan Shu roughly understood that Su Yang wanted to conceal his true identity, which was why he called him the Whip-Wearing Hero instead of his real name.

Soon, after the chief alchemist spoke, the group of alchemists obediently dispersed.

“…”

Su Yang's lips twitched slightly.

He was quite grateful that Dan Shu was so 'sensible'.

Although he had no intention of letting these people leave, it was indeed easier to talk with fewer people.

After the room became empty, Su Yang looked at Dan Shu:

"Were all those people just now from the 'Secret Teachings of the Medicine King'?"
