People playing with figurines on Star Railway

Liu Yu looked at Gui Naifen and smiled mysteriously.

This puzzled Gui Naifen, but she still looked at her with a smile.

"It's perfect that you're back. If you're my best friend, come and help me break this boulder on my chest."

"?"

Liu Yu glanced at Gui Naifen, then at his own chest.

Sister, do you want to hear what you're saying?

Putting aside the potential harm of breaking a boulder on my chest, just considering my physique, how could you possibly imagine me breaking a boulder on my chest?

Liu Yu strongly suspects that Li Dazhentou's chest, which was shattered by Gui Naifen, might have been flattened by hammer blows.

"Ahem, Miss Gui Naifen. Excuse me..."

At this moment, Yanqing seemed to notice Liuyu's embarrassment and stepped forward to speak up for him.

"you are?"

"I am Yanqing, a member of the Yunqi Xiaowei. I am currently on orders to apprehend a criminal. I happened to meet Miss Sushang and would like to ask her to join me in capturing the criminal."

Hearing Yanqing's words, Gui Naifen was stunned for a moment, then looked at her best friend.

After a long pause, he burst out laughing.

“My lord, putting everything else aside… I know my good friend’s capabilities; she’s not capable of helping you catch the criminal.”

That's what she said, but Gui Naifen still stood in front of Liu Yu, blocking Yan Qing's view for him.

Clearly, she didn't want her best friend to get involved in something so dangerous.

Yanqing, seeing this scene, didn't think much of it due to his lack of experience.

Or rather, one cannot discern Gui Naifen's almost dismissive stance at all.

“Miss Gui Naifen, you are mistaken. Although Yanqing is young, he can sense that Miss Sushang’s martial arts skills are no less than mine. Perhaps I will need Miss Sushang’s assistance at that time.”

"you……"

Gui Naifen paused, looking at Yanqing with some annoyance.

Honestly, she really wanted to grab her water and fire stick and whack this little boy on the head dozens of times, to let him know what it meant to be a living Buddha.

"Alright, Xiao Guizi."

Liu Yu patted Gui Naifen's head, earning her a disgruntled glare in return.

"I am not only your friend, but also a Cloud Rider of the Immortal Ship. As a Cloud Rider, it is only natural for me to assist Lord Xiaowei in chasing criminals. We cannot back down just because the opponent is dangerous."

"But, Changchang..."

"Little Gui, you must have heard that saying before. That saying that circulates among the Cloud Riders..."

"Varied……"

Gui Naifen paused for a moment, before she could finish speaking, she remembered that sentence.

"We, the cloud riders, are like clouds blocking the sky, guarding the immortal boat!"

Yanqing and Liuyu spoke at the same time.

"This applies not only to dealing with external enemies, but also to internal troubles. Now that there's a place where I can be of use, I'll naturally go..."

Rather than risking my life, I'd rather chase after A-Ren.

"In that case, Miss Sushang, please come with me to hunt down the culprit!"

"it is good!"

Gui Naifen stared at Liu Yu in front of her for a moment, then sighed.

"You've changed, Changchang, you've really changed. You don't care about being best friends anymore~"

That's what she said, but her tone was full of joy at her sister's progress.

"In that case, Changchang, you must be careful."

"it is good!"

Liu Yu nodded and left with Yan Qing.

But they hadn't gone very far when Jing Yuan's voice came over the loudspeakers of the entire Chang Le Tian... no, or rather, the entire Immortal Ship.

"Ahem, fellow sirs of the Immortal Ship, fellow travelers, and those little rats! I am General Jing Yuan of the Immortal Ship..."

"?"

A big question mark immediately appeared above Liu Yu's head.

It was Jingyun's voice that silenced the bustling scene of Changletian.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and listened to Jing Yuan's words.

After all, the last time the entire ship was broadcast a notice was during the Fengrao War. Now that it's being broadcast again, there's no guarantee that something big isn't going to happen.

"Nothing major this time! But I have some good news to share with you all: a friend has returned. This person enjoys drinking and is skilled in the art of star rafting..."

Upon hearing Jing Yuan's words, Liu Yu was completely stunned.

No, Jingyuan, are you really going to go this far?

Should this be announced via ship-wide broadcast?

This clearly refers to the return of Bai Heng, whom he plays, and his invitation to drink with them.

Jing Yuan deliberately spread the word to lure them into a trap in order to fulfill his wish of inviting them for drinks.

In fact, Liu Yu overlooked one thing: Bai Heng was not only important to Jing Liu, Dan Feng, and Ren, but also to Jing Yuan, a general whose lifespan was coming to an end and who could fall into demonic possession at any moment.

Bai Heng, as a representative, is not only a kind of spiritual redemption for them, but also a kind of spiritual medicine.

Meanwhile, somewhere on the Immortal Ship, Blade, who was healing and suppressing the demonic Yin body, also heard Jing Yuan's broadcast.

He didn't care what interesting things Jingyuan shared. In any case, compared to his own pursuit of Danfeng and Jingliu's madness, Jingyuan was not one of them, so it was harmless.

But what Jing Yuan said next made Ren suddenly stand up straight, his eyes becoming incredibly deep and dark.

He enjoys drinking and is skilled in astronautical navigation...

In an instant, the image of that purple-and-white fox-woman girl who also loved drinking and was skilled in the art of star-riding flashed into Ren's mind...

"...Jing Yuan!"

Chapter 55 Jingyuan Fishing, Willing to Take the Bait

Ren listened to Jingyuan's broadcast in silence.

But the murderous glint in his eyes was no longer concealed.

This kid, are you unhappy that I didn't include him in the purge?

Why pick on Bai Heng's business when there are so many excuses to use?

This is akin to cutting another knife into an already incurable wound, then sprinkling salt and pouring hydrogen peroxide on it.

Rin stood up, picked up his cracked, broken sword, and left the hidden stronghold.

Meanwhile, on another part of the Immortal Ship, Jingliu, who was searching for the blade, frowned as he listened to the broadcast.

But knowing that this was Bai Heng's wish, I felt relieved.

"Jing Yuan, he's already a general, and he's still making a mountain out of a molehill."

Although that's what he said, Jingliu still strongly agreed with Jingyuan's approach.

Logically speaking, there is nothing quicker than fishing out the blade using this method.

Similarly, Jingliu, carrying his ice sword, headed towards the Shence Mansion.

There's no need to search for Ren aimlessly anymore; that guy Ren will definitely go after Jing Yuan to settle accounts because of this.

Meanwhile, Kafka, who was taking the train crew for a stroll while waiting for Fu Xuan to arrive, frowned as she listened to the broadcast.

She felt that the broadcast was implying something, but she didn't know what it was. After all, it was impossible for a general of the Immortal Ship to use a ship-wide broadcast to announce the return of friends.

At this moment, the train trio, who were being led by Kafka for a stroll along Liuyun Ferry, and Tingyun all stopped.

They looked at each other, bewildered by the inexplicable broadcast.

"What does General Jingyuan mean by this? Uncle Yang, do you know?"

March 7th scratched his head, already dizzy from Kafka's wandering behavior, and now with Jingyuan's cryptic broadcasts, he was even more bewildered.

Walter stopped, pushed up his glasses with his middle finger, and his former reclusive nature seemed to be activated, the lenses reflecting a bright silver light.

"According to my speculation, General Jingyuan is probably using some kind of code to notify someone on a celestial ship. And for someone with the title of Divine Strategy General to take the initiative to use this method, the success rate should be very high."

After listening to Walter's analysis, March 7th was stunned. She poked the star next to her and asked in a low voice.

"Star, did you understand?"

"Simply put... Uncle Yang has now entered the role of Detective Nan."

Is this what you meant?

"I don't know either. I'm just a newborn baby!"

Xing spread her hands, her face showing an innocent expression.

This made Kafka, who was watching the stars, smile slightly.

My own child is so cute.

Standing beside the crowd, Huanlong, who had transformed into Tingyun, seemed somewhat bewildered.

As the Absolute Lord who specializes in the Immortal Ship line, Huanlong always conducts investigations before infiltrating any organization.

She knew that General Jing Yuan of Luofu was one of the Five Valiant Warriors of Yunshang, and she also knew a little about the other five.

According to what is being said on Jingyuan Broadcast, Huanlong could only think of someone who died hundreds of years ago during the Third Fertile War between the Immortal Ship and the Fertile People.

Bai Heng, one of the Five Valiant Warriors of the Clouds, is a Death Knight.

But according to records, that person was completely annihilated without leaving any trace of his remains.

How could it possibly return today, hundreds of years later?

Huanlong has a vague sense of unease, but she doesn't know what it is.

Chang Letian, who was preparing to go with Yan Qing to pursue Liu Yu who was about to kill Ren, felt a little confused.

He truly hadn't expected Jing Yuan to resort to this tactic directly.

Using Bai Heng's information, the fishing blade appears.

And it just so happens to work every time.

What is this? It's like Jiang Taigong fishing—those who are willing will take the bait.

"Miss Su Chang, what's wrong?"

After listening to the broadcast, Yanqing was also a little puzzled by his general's words, but when he turned around, he saw Liuyu looking at the sky with a very complicated expression.

"I think we probably don't need to go looking for that murderer anymore."

"Hmm? Why do you think so?"

Yanqing was stunned for a moment. What did this mean?

"If I'm not mistaken, General, you were just using some information to lure someone out. And right now, the most dangerous people on the Immortal Ship, besides the hidden Medicine King's secrets, are the criminals you're hunting down."

Yan Qing stared blankly at Liu Yu, then scratched her head in confusion.

"Didn't the general say he was sharing good news? The return of a friend is indeed a joyous occasion."

"Yanqing Xiaowei, have you forgotten... that the immortal ship is currently under martial law and navigation is restricted?"

Yanqing fell silent instantly.

His gaze towards Liu Yu gradually shifted from admiration to respect, and finally to reverence.

"I've learned a lot from you, Yanqing." Yanqing clasped his hands in a respectful gesture and replied.

Looking at her good friend who was giving a reasoned and well-founded analysis, Gui Naifen, who was standing to the side, suddenly realized that she didn't seem to recognize her anymore.

Not only did they become more motivated and have a better physique, but their brains also seemed to have been completely redesigned.
