Star Dome Railway, I am surrounded by strange things!

Yet, his seemingly honest inner turmoil could not escape the white-haired Yukong's eyes. She saw this rebellious young man every day at home, who spoke honestly but kept thinking "I'll do it next time." They were practically cut from the same cloth, truly friends who could hang out together despite the age difference of several decades.

Yukong, who couldn't even correct his own daughter's condition, could only sigh helplessly, "Come with me. First, let's go to the Dan Ding Division and let the Medicine Dragon Girl heal you. Then, we'll go to the General's Mansion and report this experience to General Jingyuan."

"Huh? I'm very healthy. There's no need for Bai Lu to prescribe medicine for me."

"Hmm?" Yukong turned around, his right hand already eager to try.

"It's okay, let's go, Lord Yukong." Jiang Yan, who didn't want to experience the same treatment as Qingni, had to do what he wanted. After respectfully presenting the souvenirs that had been prepared long ago as quickly as possible, he obediently followed Yukong straight to Dandingsi.

"Xiao Jiang, you're here again? Where have you been lately? You ran off to Luofu to play without a word. If you don't have a gift, don't blame me for prescribing the most bitter medicine for you!"

Bai Lu, punished for sneaking out to play and locked in the clean room, spotted Jiang Yan from afar and instantly dropped her pestle and mortar, leaping from the window and lunging at him. Jiang Yan reached under her armpits and lifted her up in mid-air. Only after a swipe from his tail did their usual playful banter cease.

Jiang Yan and Bai Lu had a particularly close relationship. When Jiang Yan was brought to the Immortal Boat, he was very thin. To improve his health, Tingyun specially invited the Medicine-Bearing Dragon Girl to help him. It just so happened that at that time, Bai Lu had just sprouted two tiny horns, but hadn't grown any further. Frustrated, she searched through every medical book, but to no avail.

It was a rare opportunity to meet a "peer" of similar height who was also a drug tester. Bai Lu and Ting Yun hit it off immediately and put in a lot of effort to develop a variety of treatment plans for Jiang Yan. They also decided to use them to increase their own height if they were useful.

Soon, the treatment plan showed results. Jiang Yan's height increased like a blossoming sesame seed. However, the white line that Bai Lu drew for herself on the pillar was like a chasm that could not be surpassed.

Bai Lu was so angry that the whole dragon was about to explode, but she also knew how big the difference was between the physique of ordinary humans and the Chi Ming people. She could only persuade Jiang Yan to continue to accept her "Chi Ming level enhanced version" conditioning plan on the grounds of "enhancing physical fitness".

Ordinary methods are useless, can't I just use my strength to make bricks fly? The short-lived species has increased by ten, and I don't have high expectations, so an increase of one should be no problem!

Jiang Yan, of course, wouldn't refuse such a heaven-given opportunity, and so the two formed a secret alliance. Bai Lu experimented with all sorts of bizarre drugs to test her astonishing "growth plan," and when it failed, she immediately began treating and destroying the traces. Knowing that physical fitness was the foundation of all strength, Jiang Yan, trusting that the miraculous doctor couldn't cure him, persevered with immense fortitude, enduring the various bizarre side effects.

So over the years, the precious materials collected by Bai Lu were basically put on Jiang Yan; and Jiang Yan was knocked down on the spot by Bai Lu's medicine countless times, and developed various symptoms that had never been seen in the pharmacopoeia. He could only be saved by Bai Lu using her own body as medicine to wake him up.

Of course, Jiang Yan's suffering wasn't in vain. His height was now the envy of many on the Immortal Boat. While his physique wasn't as good as that of the Immortal Race, it was still far superior to that of ordinary mortals. Bai Lu, on the other hand, suffered greatly from Jiang Yan's frequent use of the Tianbo Division's favor to take her out for fun and meals, greatly improving her quality of life. However, that line still hung over her head, mocking her meaningless efforts daily.

How could their relationship, truly a life-or-death relationship, be anything but good? Learning Tingyun's technique and fiercely pinching Bai Lu's soft, chubby face, Jiang Yan immediately pulled out a gift he had specially prepared—a gift package of specialty foods from all the planets along the ferry's route.

How could Jiang Yan forget about this little dragon girl who never gained weight, but also never grew tall? Even though his status had been revoked and he couldn't leave the cabin, it was still a Tianbosi passenger ship, so it was easy for him to ask the crew to help buy some local specialties.

Looking at the huge box of snacks, Bai Lu's expression finally cleared up and she pretended to accept it reluctantly.

"Okay, you passed!" Then he began to examine Jiang Yan's body carefully.

If there is anyone who cares most about Jiang Yan's health, it is naturally her.

After all, the only people in Luofu who could brag so much that they asked the Danding Division for a transfer letter to rescue her and take her out for shopping were the brother and sister Tingyun and Jiang Yan. It's a pity that the fox girl who also loved pinching her face is no longer with us...

No, it's not that I just love to play or eat! My hope of growing taller lies entirely in this "growth plan." If he's not here, where can I find someone else who can freely use medicine? What if the Xianzhou people develop a demonic body? I won't be able to cure it!

Bai Lu, who was daydreaming, suddenly noticed something unusual:

"Hey, what's going on? Why is there a force stimulating your cells while protecting them at the same time? What weird thing have you provoked?"

"It's the amber flame of Bu Tian Siming. Let me show you. It's so powerful!" Jiang Yan proudly raised his index finger, and a ball of flame suddenly leaped up and burned at his fingertips.

Regarding the power of preservation, Jiang Yan was most satisfied with the amber flame. The mini sub-space crystal wall and the giant source base were powerful, but not intuitive enough! How could it be so cool to just push forward with a blast of flames and then fly up with a knight's flying kick after a disagreement?

"You're so powerful! Put it away quickly!" Bai Lu was not happy at all for Jiang Yan's growing strength. Instead, after he put away the flame, she hurriedly checked his fingers and ordered him to light and extinguish it repeatedly. She used a sampling needle to remove some tissue to test the condition of the cells in his body, and she also shocked him twice, making his whole body numb.

"The oscillation strength of the neural bundle has increased significantly, a bit like the fire of the sun, but there is almost no physical damage." Bai Lu muttered to herself as she wrote the diagnosis. Then she waved her hand, motioning Jiang Yan to lower himself, and slapped him hard on the forehead.

"I've told you a long time ago, don't pursue some weird powers. What about the power of Bu Tian Siming? Are you made of amber? Why don't other people use the power of Bu Tian Siming to set fire everywhere? Are you the only one who is so powerful?"

"Even if your body isn't damaged, can your nerve bundles withstand this level of pressure for a long time?"

"Thank goodness I discovered it early. Three times a week, I'm injecting neural stem cells and using electrical stimulation therapy to activate the compensatory mechanism. Until I'm cured, I'll just stay put!"

Jiang Yan had absolutely no doubt about Bai Lu's diagnostic abilities. In all of Luofu, or indeed the entire universe, few were more skilled in conventional medicine than this little dragon girl. From childhood to adulthood, with the exception of growing taller and possessing a demonic body, Jiang Yan had never encountered an illness she couldn't cure. But this girl always loved to scare her patients...

Seeing this guy's "praise me, praise me" look, Jiang Yan quickly peeled off the diagnosis from his forehead and bowed his head exaggeratedly:

"Thank you, Lord Bailu, for saving my life!"

Bai Lu happily tilted her head back in response to Jiang Yan's thanks. "No need to thank me, I just heard from other patients that Zhiwei Shengyuan has a new dessert called 'Falling Nine Heavens'. The candied sugar is so long... It's a pity I can't have it! What do you think I should do?"

"Well, it's no big deal for me to take you to eat, but I'm so seriously ill right now, I must have difficulty moving..." Jiang Yan said deliberately in a difficult tone.

"It's okay, just a few injections and electroacupuncture. It will be over in a blink of an eye. It won't delay anything... What are you doing! Let go!" Bai Lu was greedy and was tricked into telling the truth by Jiang Yan. Then she was cruelly punished. Her two warm jade-like dragon horns were grabbed and rubbed hard.

The dragon horn is as smooth as jade and has body temperature. It’s amazing!

Bai Lu, whose sensitive parts were grabbed by Jiang Yan, of course refused to let go. She endured the pain and itchiness and wrapped her tail around Jiang Yan's neck. She began to sweep Jiang Yan's face back and forth with the tip of her tail, trying to make him let go of her hands. The two of them started to quarrel again without paying attention to anyone else.

"Cough cough!" Yukong, who was still waiting to take Jiang Yan to see Jing Yuan, finally couldn't help it and coughed, which made the two of them calm down again.

"We have something important to do today, so we won't bother you for now, Miss Bailu." Yukong nodded in thanks, but looking at Bailu's expectant eyes, he finally added:

"The official document inviting you to see a doctor will be sent to the Danding Division later. Farewell."

Bai Lu was closely watched by the dragon masters. Even though Jiang Yan invited her to see a doctor in the name of the merchant group, she had to wait and see. However, the invitation from Yukong, the Six Emperors, was obviously a different level of strength.

For Bai Lu, this was the real consultation fee. After receiving it, her face immediately lit up with a bright smile. She happily waved goodbye to the two of them. When she could no longer see their figures, she looked at the test bench she had just worked on and murmured,

"It's not even as many times as my cells can divide, so it shouldn't be a big deal if they're discovered..."

"Forget it, never mind. It's better than having traces of the Suiyang Fire discovered."

Oops, we're being harassed by the Immortal Boat people! : Chapter 43: Unity of purpose

Even though Jiang Yan had been in Luofu for so many years, he had only met General Jingyuan a few times except for various ceremonies during festivals.

Luofu's Cloud Cavalry had been licking their wounds since the Third War of Plenty, with little military activity. Known as the "Blind-Eyes General," he often only saw a shadow when visiting the Divine Strategy Palace, let alone participating in the official duties of the other Six Imperial Guards.

Thinking about the cruel deeds he did at Yalilo No. 6 that even alarmed the extremely intelligent General Shen Ce, it would be strange for Jiang Yan to say that he was not nervous, especially when Ting Yun insisted on hiding in the shield instead of staying at home.

What if General Jingyuan asked him to show off his shield? Would he perform a shield roasting on the spot? Wouldn't it be better to stay at home?

Jiang Yan didn't believe his sister's boasts, to be honest. She had just been beaten to a pulp in Jianmu a few months ago. How much of a tough guy must she be to boast that her plan was foolproof?

If General Jingyuan finds any clues, the brother and sister will be sentenced to death together in the Netherworld!

With a feeling of trepidation, Jiang Yan arrived at the Shen Ce Mansion under Yu Kong's guidance. At this moment, General Jing Yuan was sitting at the table drinking tea and chatting with several colleagues. When he saw Yu Kong and Jiang Yan coming, he greeted them without any airs:

"Here he is! Is this the little fellow that caught the eye of Bu Tian Siming? No need to be nervous, Yu Kong Siduo, please show him to a seat."

General Jing Yuan was very kind, but Jiang Yan's nervousness did not ease at all, because the people drinking tea looked a little familiar to him.

General Jingyuan, Taibu Fuxuan of the Imperial Astrologer Department, Sizhen Zhulun of the Imperial Construction Department, Siheng Huifu of the Imperial Earth Observation Department, an alchemist whom Jiang Yan seemed to have met before, and Yukong, all the six imperial guards gathered here.

Looking at this incredibly impressive lineup of judges, Jiang Yan suddenly felt a little panicked. Was this a report or a trial? What merit had he earned, the same six-member panel that Yin Yue had received? Even if his sister was included, she was just a mere fragment, easily crushed. What was there to judge?

Just as Jiang Yan was beginning to recall the scene from the storytelling opera "Six Imperial Courts Drinking the Moon", Jing Yuan put down his teacup and spoke:

"I invited you all here today primarily to discuss the controversy that has been brewing lately. Jianmu's rapid growth has ceased, and our strategy now lies in working together to eliminate the remaining dangers. Calming the situation is our top priority, and we must not panic. This is our duty."

"The things we have all gathered here today to discuss should be turned into a general order to govern the words and actions of the deacons and lower-level department members, to reassure the people of Xianzhou. How do you do that?"

Jiang Yan was overthinking it. Today's meeting was not held to interrogate him at all.

In the Battle of Jianmu, Luofu suffered heavy losses. The Danding Division, which already had a very bad reputation, "contributed" nearly half of its secret followers of the King of Medicine this time. Even the actual person in power, Dan Shu, became the leader of the rebels. What's more, the Master Chiming Long was involved, and everyone in Luofu felt insecure in an instant.

Who among the Luofu people who can live to be a thousand years old doesn't have a few alchemist friends? Who hasn't taken medicine from the Dandingsi?

Is the medicine I'm taking legitimate? Could it be that I've become a free trialist for the Medicine King's secret medicine? Will I soon become a demonic being?

Just thinking about this, many people were almost scared to death, so before the situation calmed down, "Pack up all the people from the Dan Ding Division and arrest them in the Ten Kings Division!" became the common voice of the entire Luofu.

If the Dan Ding Division was like this, the Tian Bo Division, which had "contributed" a Great Lord of Extinction, would naturally be no exception. Recently, there had been a constant outcry in Luofu, hoping that the Ten Kings Division would also conduct a thorough review of the Tian Bo Division.

Soon, an unprecedented large-scale investigation enveloped the entire Danding Division. The entire Danding Division basically came to a standstill. Almost everyone went to the Ten Kings Division, and even many staff members from other departments were implicated.

The Luofu Six Imperial Guards were well aware that the larger followers of the Medicine King's secret teachings had almost all perished near Jianmu, leaving only a few small fry who had slipped through the net. This crude investigation, besides causing immense panic within the Luofu Six Departments, would have had no effect. The most reasonable option was to wait until the situation had completely subsided before slowly pursuing the case.

Unfortunately, Jing Yuan was seriously injured after the Battle of Jianmu and was unable to function. While the other Six Celestial Emperors were reluctant to intervene, it would be strange for Yuque not to dispatch a new Danding Division and further divide and regulate the entire department after such a major chaos erupted under their rule. If no action had been taken before this, how would the other immortal ships view Luofu's loyalty? Would they assume that everyone had become followers of the Medicine King?

There was no other way. Even though they knew it was useless, they could only drag the Ten Kings into the fight and carry out rounds of meaningless struggles until Jing Yuan recovered from his injury and returned.

As the Seven Heavenly Generals of the Imperial Bow, who would doubt his loyalty? If he had betrayed me, the Divine Lord would have chopped off his head from behind.

This long-awaited meeting was originally held to stop the pursuit and calm the situation. Jing Yuan's proposal was quickly met with overwhelming support:

"That's how it should be."

"The general is wise."

Then they all turned their eyes to Jiang Yan, who looked well-behaved.

Jiang Yan was actually far more famous in Luofu than he'd imagined. After all, the universe was teeming with outsiders bewitched by fox-people, but this was the only child who had truly captivated them. This incident had stirred up a massive wave of gossip in the stagnant Luofu back then, so much so that even the Six Emperors had heard of it.

Not to mention Jiang Yan's recent "continuation of his success," traveling alone to another planet to overthrow its ruler and nominally selling the entire planet to Luo Fu, which had further elevated his already peculiar reputation. Naturally, the news that the other party had received the attention of the Butian Siming had also reached their ears, along with the surging gossip.

Is this interstellar succubus an undercover agent of the Antimatter Corps? Come on! An undercover agent of "Pure Beauty" or "Breeding" is more like it!

What could be more suitable as a model and weather vane to appease the people than to dispel rumors and prove the innocence of this person who is "involved with the main culprit"?

Even if you don’t believe us, you must believe in the judgment of Butian Siming!

Xiao Jiang is innocent now, so could the original Tingyun still be an undercover agent?

Now that the main suspect is no longer in doubt, what do the other people involved have to be afraid of?

So no one cared about what Jiang Yan reported at all. He made the report and everyone nodded, which was enough. The announcement to refute the rumors might even have been written before he finished his report.

In a world where gods truly exist, their approval trumps all eloquence and evidence, and even the resourceful General Shen Ce is no exception. Having endured the test of the Ten Kings' Dream Divination Technique and received a medical certificate from the Medicine-Bearing Dragon Girl, who would deliberately create complications even if the procedures clearly proved his innocence?

There was no difficulty, no questioning of details, not even a display of the amber flame. After completing the report, Jiang Yan was released from the Shen Ce Mansion, making all his prepared defense efforts useless.

It wasn't until he got home that Jiang Yan finally calmed down from his initial shock and began to show off his ability to withstand pressure to Ting Yun:

"I was pretty calm back then, wasn't I? I even managed to keep Liu Yu in the dark, right? I laughed at Jing Yuan's lack of strategy and Fu Xuan's lack of wisdom... From now on, please call me Mr. Grand Scene, Jiang Yan!"

"Yes, Mr. Big Scene, Xiao Jiang, you are truly amazing! From now on, my sister's ability to walk openly in Luofu depends on you!"

Even though he sensed a trace of the unique Yin energy of the Ten Kings Division lingering in the air, Tingyun only smiled faintly.

As long as the starting point is good, the process is good, and the ending is good, that's enough. Of course, I won't tell Xiao Jiang about some possibilities that may affect the taste!

Oops, I'm being harassed by the Immortal Boat people! : Chapter 44: Revenge

After successfully hiding Tingyun from General Jingyuan and Fu Xuantaibu, Jiang Yan finally relaxed his tense nerves and enjoyed his rare vacation.

According to Tingyun, in order to avoid unnecessary associations, the backup plan she left in the "Furnace of Creation" will take some time to activate automatically. Before that, Jiang Yan can't do anything to help this ghost fire vixen and can only wait for the opportunity to come.

However, the one who really enjoyed this holiday was not Jiang Yan, but Bai Lu.

Danding Division is now overwhelmed with its own affairs, and Master Long has also been dragged into it, so the power to control her has been greatly reduced. The secondment document from Tianbo Division "to treat Jiang Yan's illness" has made Bai Lu like a dragon in water. Three days a week, she comes to Jiang Yan for treatment at dawn. After playing, shopping and eating, she reluctantly ends the treatment until it is almost dark, and returns to Danding Division with her bulging belly patted.

Luofu, thanks to its extensive use of folding space, is generously utilised, far larger than any other city. If one wanted to explore it all, it would likely take years to complete. It was also thanks to Jiang Yan inheriting Tingyun's "legacy" that he would have otherwise spent all his pocket money, which might not even have been enough to feed this little dragon who couldn't gain weight.

Sadly, while Jiang Yan was happy to see Bai Lu happy, he himself had no interest in fun. Ever since entering the Gate of Destiny, he'd spent every 24 hours chasing power. How could he have the time to be a street urchin? Aside from accompanying Bai Lu shopping, dining, and serving as a guinea pig for drug testing, he spent almost all his time at the martial arts gym.

Through continuous research on Topa's "friend fee" and relying on Bai Lu to regulate his body at any time, Jiang Yan's development of Amber Flame quickly reached a new level.

His already formidable speed, combined with the strength of his destiny and the rocket-like blast of flames, often saw his foes slammed against the wall in a single blow, not to mention his ferocious flying kicks that triggered a powerful explosion of flames the moment they made contact. The opponents Tingyun had meticulously arranged for him were quickly defeated.

Isn’t the feeling of defeating opponents who you couldn’t beat before, one by one, a thousand times more delicious than eating “Luo Jiu Tian”?

As his revenge gradually came to fruition, Jiang Yan began to focus more on finding the top player in his black book. Finally, one day, he met the youngest and most frustrating opponent in Changletian:

"Hey, little brother, long time no see." Looking at the other person's face which was almost the same as a few years ago, Jiang Yan recognized at a glance that this was the kid whom he had failed to defeat after hundreds of rounds.

"Who are you?" Yan Qing looked at the tall Jiang Yan and felt that he was somewhat familiar, but he did not match any image in his memory.

"Didn't we have a sword fight at the Xinghu Boxing Gym a few years ago? We fought for over a hundred rounds with no clear winner. I've never forgotten it!"

By then, Jiang Yan's martial arts had already made some progress, and he had begun to be able to skillfully shuttle through the hail of bullets from the flying swords and floating cannons. However, even if he found an opportunity, his ability to defeat the enemy in one blow was still insufficient, and it was difficult for him to make good use of these life-threatening attack opportunities.

Therefore, Jiang Yan thought of using physical skills to supplement his close-range attack methods, and spent a lot of money to become an inner disciple of the Xinghu Boxing Gym.

As a result, after practicing for a while, I found that although the Qi-driven boxing techniques of Xinghu Boxing Gym are powerful, the core purpose is just to lose weight. Some extremely strange postures and moves like Jojo Standing are not the so-called secrets at all, but are designed to burn abdominal fat as quickly as possible.

Jiang Yan, whose mentality exploded, used his fat-burning boxing to beat up the owner and coaches who cheated him of his tuition fees. He then fought with Yan Qing, who was passing by and heard the news and tried to help. In the end, both of them were taken to the Diheng Division and captured by the Tianbo Division and the Shen Ce Mansion respectively.

"It's you! I'm going to teach you a lesson this time! Wait, why are you so tall?"

When talking about this past event, Yanqing instantly became excited.

At that time, he had just become a Yunqi Xiaowei, and his swordsmanship was already quite famous within the Yunqi Army.

As a result, when he went to buy the new flying sword from Gongzaosi that day, he happened to see someone making trouble at the door of the boxing gym. As he liked to be a hero, he certainly would not turn a blind eye. Without saying a word, he drew his sword and tried to subdue this madman who was trying to challenge the gym in Luofu.

In the end, he didn't win! He even destroyed the entire martial arts gym with his sword energy and was taken to the Land and Statutes Division. He could only beg the general to send someone to rescue him. Afterwards, he was teased by his colleagues and the general alike. It was really infuriating!

This bastard, if it wasn’t forbidden to use flying swords against civilians, I would not be able to win?

What’s even more infuriating is, what on earth did this bastard eat to become so tall?

Seeing that the guy who was originally only a head taller than him had now grown into a tall young man, Yan Qing was even more furious.

Barbarians, are barbarians so great?
