The two generals at Shence Mansion, Jing Yuan and Huai Yan, guessed before they could that Hua Yi was the hunting envoy.

So, what are they really thinking?

Why are they letting this guy stay on the Star Train?!

We are your own people, all of us in the [Hunter] faction, while the Star Train is the [Pioneer] faction!

With the fall of Lord Youyuntian, has the nameless traveler embarked on a different destiny?

They undermine the hunting grounds.

To describe Hua Yi as a corner is an insult; his combat power and methods are enough to affect the fate of the alliance.

If another prosperous war breaks out in the future, a celestial general who can wipe out the enemy without harming the main force of the Cloud Cavalry will surely be in charge, and his military might will be unparalleled, causing all demons to flee in terror.

Moreover, if the Emperor Bow Master is not indifferent to the lives of mortals, but rather that the meteor arrows truly cannot distinguish friend from foe, then Hua Yi's journey on the [Hunting] path in his own way is to broaden his destiny!

Once the new hunting principle is fully perfected and flawless, the future Emperor Bow's arrows will only slay the abundant evil creatures, without harming the Immortal Ship Alliance.

That would be a truly stunning shooting star.

Where the light shines, evil is eradicated and all living beings survive!

Feixiao's personal life or death is now irrelevant.

Let's keep Hua Yi here. Don't differentiate between Luofu, Zhuming, and Yaoqing for now. Let him stay in the alliance. He can stay in Luofu for a few more days and then move to Yaoqing to live permanently. That's all for later discussion.

"General Tianji, please slow down and take care of yourself."

Bai Lu watched as Fei Xiao suddenly accelerated and disappeared in an instant, and hurriedly called out to warn him.

But the fox-woman was nowhere to be seen.

"Don't worry, this level of running won't cause Yue Kuang to relapse."

Hua Yi rummaged through his pockets.

"Would you like something else to eat, Bailu? The chaos in Luofu has only recently subsided, and the chief alchemist here was taken away by the judge of the Ten Kings Division. The Alchemy Division needs you to stay and stabilize the people's hearts, so you'd better not go out to play on the streets."

"Ah?! Miss Dan Shu is in trouble?"

How is she usually to you?

"She's really nice, so gentle and kind. I've seen her take care of blind little girls after get off work more than once. Even though she herself is disabled and can't see, she's still willing to go out and help."

Imaginary energy flowed in Hua Yi's eyes, a flash of divine light appearing and disappearing as he observed the traces of fate on Bai Lu's body.

Only the [immortality] of the Vidyadhara clan exists; there is no [abundance] caused by external forces.

"Alright. Here, a string of prawns."

"Wow?"

Bai Lu was stunned when she saw Hua Yi pull the skewers out of his pocket.

"How did you do that? You were just sparring with General Feixiao. It's one thing that your clothes didn't tear from the impact, but how come you still have a string of Qiongshi birds in your pocket? It's completely clean, not even the paper bag is torn, and the ends of the bird string are clearly pointed!"

"You might not believe it, but I have a miniature cave inside my pocket."

Taking a bite of the jujube skewers, I discovered that not only was the syrup on the outside perfectly preserved, but the fruit inside was also sweet and sour, with a wonderful texture. I was pleasantly surprised.

"I believe you! Is there any more? I want more!"

Do you have any boxes or bags? I'll fill them up for you.

"Oh dear, I don't have it on me—but I have a flexible tail. No matter how much you take out, I can just swipe it away with my tail!"

Then, as if by magic, Hua Yi pulled out all sorts of snacks and desserts from his pocket, piling them up into a small mountain.

Is this enough for you to eat for two days?

"That's enough. Does that mean you'll come see me again in two days? Let's add each other as friends!"

Hua Yi is very good at making girls happy.

Still sitting in the Dan Ding Si, unable to leave at will, Bai Lu, after being coaxed by Hua Yi, was much more energetic than before.

Once Miss Dragon Girl had skipped and jumped out of sight, Hua Yi turned around and saw Jing Liu staring intently at him.

"Are you spacing out?"

"It reminded me of some things from the past, Yang."

"Bai Heng?"

Upon hearing Hua Yi utter this name, Jing Liu felt a pang of pain in his heart. He did not want to mention the past that ended in tragedy, but considering that he was able to witness the current state of Luo Fu entirely thanks to Hua Yi suppressing the demonic body, he remained silent for a moment before finally speaking.

"...Back then, she was the most lively and enthusiastic of the five heroes of the cloud. She would stuff her pockets full of snacks and then share them with us."

Jingliu tried to control the corners of his mouth, outlining an arc that could be described as a smile.

Unfortunately it failed.

"Bai Heng died seven hundred years ago. Bai Lu is not her reincarnation, but just a remnant flower, seemingly real but not quite. But to see you make her so happy—thank you."

Chapter 363 The Story of the Five Heroes of the Clouds

Mirror Flow has a story, and Hua Yi is the most suitable listener.

They left Dan Ding Si together, strolled through the streets of Luofu, and finally settled down at the Everlasting Marquis Teahouse.

Without Hua Yi saying anything more, the young proprietress vacated a private room on the second floor.

This distinguished guest came for tea three times, and General Jingyuan accompanied him on two of those occasions.

Even though the Nightless Marquis's place was just an ordinary teahouse with no special information channels, he still had the basic ability to read people's expressions and moods.

"What kind of tea would you two like? Would you prefer a strong or a lighter brew?" the proprietress asked Hua Yi and Jing Liu.

The main question is about the latter.

Based on Hua Yi's experience of coming to taste tea three times before, Lin Yuan Chun is a safe choice, but the silver-haired lady's preferences are completely unknown.

The young proprietress and Hua Yi both looked at Jing Liu.

Seeing this, the female swordsman remained calm, her mind not on drinking tea.

"You help me choose."

"Does the shopkeeper have any milder teas? We've had milk tea before, so it would be best if we didn't have the same flavor again."

"Yes, I recommend Dan Ding Su Zhen tea. Brew it in a gaiwan with boiling water and pour it out quickly. The tea soup is not strong or bitter, but fresh, fragrant and mellow, just right."

"Two bowls, please."

"Alright." The little proprietress of 960 worked quickly and soon brought out the Dan Ding Su Zhen, steaming hot.

As she tiptoed away, closing the door to the private room behind her, a quiet space for uninterrupted conversation was created.

Like a lotus emerging from clear water, naturally beautiful without artifice, a delicious light tea is not bland or tasteless, but rather subtle yet flavorful, perfectly balancing the sweetness of the preceding milk tea.

"Bai Heng was born on the Yaoqing Immortal Ship."

"She was a pilot, but whenever she piloted a starship into battle, it would either be swallowed up as a snack by the giant beasts of the Bountiful People by some twist of fate, or it would crash in the enemy's rear. Few starships that passed through Bai Heng's hands could return to port intact. The people of the Sky Ship Division secretly called her the starship killer."

"Nine times out of ten, the bad things Bai Heng says out loud, whether by guessing or deception, will come true. However, she always manages to escape danger and survive unscathed... Before that final battle, Bai Heng's luck was astonishing, and she was the best pilot at the time."

With Hua Yi's precepts and words of wisdom guarding his mind, Jing Liu was able to carefully recall the past.

To this day, Bai Heng remains her most cherished friend.

In times of war, they would eliminate evildoers; in times of peace, they would travel the stars. Those were carefree and pleasant times, and Jingliu should have been somewhat relaxed.

Bai Heng went missing during the campaign; Bai Heng is in grave danger; Bai Heng declares victory.

But if this dramatic development continues, it will become a fairy tale.

The legend of the Five Heroes of the Clouds will come to an end, as the approaching darkness swallows Bai Heng's life and leaves the remaining survivors without their former brilliance.

"Seven hundred years ago, the magistrate of Fengrao, Shuhu, gathered a large army and invaded Luofu, intending to seize the Jianmu tree. This event is known in history as the Shuhu Rebellion."

A murderous glint flashed in Jingliu's eyes.

The past, which was recorded in the immortal ship's records but whose details were always vague and missing, was slowly unfolded through her words.

"In an instant, the Bloodstained Prison Realm was unleashed, nearly half of the Luofu Cave Heavens were destroyed, and less than one-tenth of the Cloud Cavalry Army survived."

"Yingxing is a craftsman who is not good at direct combat. He controls various firearms from the rear. Danfeng transforms into a dragon and fights with that ever-changing shadow of flesh and blood."

"But all the crossbows and cannons were swallowed up by the Bloodstained Prison Realm, and Danfeng gradually fell into Dragon Frenzy. Jingyuan led the Cloud Cavalry to hold on with all his might. I swung my sword countless times, but I was unable to turn the tide of the battle."

Hua Yi was a good listener and did not interrupt Jing Liu's recollection.

The battlefield of yesteryear has been vividly presented before our eyes through words. The Five Heroes of the Clouds fought fiercely against the enemy, but they were no longer as invincible as before. Together with the entire Luofu Immortal Ship, they were mired in the quagmire of war and could not extricate themselves.

"It was Bai Heng who, wielding an absolutely dark sun, single-handedly charged into battle, enabling the Alliance soldiers to break through the Bloodstained Prison Boundary. But in that instant, as fast as eternity, Bai Heng's hands, face, and even her entire being vanished—the black sun shattered everything around her into the finest dust, engulfing it in a storm of power."

The black sun is likely a black hole, which involves [nothingness].

Hua Yi analyzed the information in Jing Liu's words, and Jing Liu's tone gradually became filled with sorrow, which was difficult to suppress.

"A wisp of hair and a few drops of blood—these are the only traces left of Bai Heng's existence. But Dan Feng and Ying Xing are not giving up. They attempt to use those few drops of blood, along with the Dragon Transformation Technique and the ability to instantly transform flesh and blood, to bring the fallen Bai Heng back to the world of the living."

"In the end, it created a monstrous dragon that nearly destroyed the Scale Abyss Realm, and the seal on the Jianmu tree is about to be destroyed as well."

"Yes, after witnessing Bai Heng sacrifice herself for a sliver of hope on the battlefield, I actually want to pick up my sword and personally slay the evil dragon formed from her blood!"

At that moment, Jingliu recalled the nightmare of being struck by an ominous star in his childhood. His internal organs were churning and burning, as if ripe grains of rice were about to break free of their husks and expand to infinity.

Her flesh and blood finally exceeded their limits and began to disintegrate, as if bound by silken strings, taut over her limbs and bones, tearing apart her remaining consciousness bit by bit.

In the end, Jingliu won and killed the evil dragon, but the following year he fell into the demonic realm.

"The current Bai Lu was born from the egg of the dragon that was transformed into. The evil dragon is not Bai Heng, and Bai Lu is not the evil dragon. Naturally, Bai Heng and Bai Lu can only be considered as two similar flowers, leaving behind only a little bit of longing."

[Nothingness] Ah...

Hua Yi silently deduced the scenario in his mind.

I lack understanding of this path of destiny, have never been to a place that can be called the base camp of nothingness, and have not yet come into contact with a sufficiently powerful nothingness walker.

It is impossible to simply use the void destiny to shake spacetime and give Bai Heng, who was swallowed by the black hole, a chance to live.

However, if a more complex solution is needed, [Abundance] and [Hunting] are also options.

It should be said that it is a must-choose option.

Bai Heng is a fox-person, a long-lived species, whose life form is inherently related to the power of abundance. As a member of the Immortal Ship Alliance, he is undoubtedly on the path of hunting.

"Her blood was created into a monstrous dragon, and after shedding its scales, it turned into white dew. Did that strand of her hair remain?"

"...I've kept it all this time."

"That's it."

After obtaining Bai Heng's stray hairs, and then asking Bai Lu to contribute a few drops of blood, we can use [Abundance] and [Hunting] to shake spacetime, along with [Mystery]...

No, since what swallowed Bai Heng was something like a black hole, there was no way to avoid [nothingness].

Only if Hua Yi continues his journey and encounters a sufficiently powerful Voidwalker to glimpse the truth can Bai Heng be resurrected.

Chapter 364 Mirror Flow's Helplessness

Even if all the necessary conditions are met, Hua Yi still needs to perform a reverse simulation.

Because Bai Heng is a fox spirit, not a Vidyadhara.

The flower that resembles Bailu is essentially a life form created from Baiheng's blood and the Dragon Transformation Technique, which gave birth to a wicked dragon. It was then killed by Jingliu and molted from an egg.

Hua Yi must work backward step by step, taking into account the influence of the power of destiny, deciphering and evolving it, to find the answers he needs in the interwoven truths of the universe, untangle the mess, and create the reality he desires.

This is certainly not an easy task.

However, seeing the hidden pain in Jing Liu's eyes, Hua Yi still spoke, his words carrying a hidden meaning: "Perhaps Bai Heng did not die after being absorbed by the black sun, but simply fell asleep in an unknown place."

"..."

Jing Liu spent some time suppressing the gloom in his heart, and when he suddenly heard Hua Yi say such words, he immediately looked up at him.

"Is this supposed to be comforting?"
