Miss Judge will keep her mission in mind, while Mr. Hua Yi should enjoy his shopping trip!

Jinren Lane, compared to other commercial districts, lacks some grandeur but has a more down-to-earth atmosphere.

The air was filled with the aroma of food, and on both sides were either business people with shops and stalls or piles of various express delivery boxes. The slightly messy arrangement actually made people feel more at ease.

Since Huo Huo was going to treat everyone, Hua Yi naturally gave her complete control over the food selection.

Waiting for Miss Judge to choose her favorite dishes.

The girl pondered deeply, wandering among various food stalls, before finally making up her mind and arriving at a pastry shop.

His first reaction wasn't to talk to the shop assistant, but to turn around and look at Hua Yi.

"Is this ok?"

"Okay~"

Perhaps because Hua Yi frequently pulls out Fairy Happy Tea and other sweet drinks from his pocket, Huo Huo also chose sweet pastries among all the snacks.

A whole cardboard box full!

"Huo Huo bought a double portion, right? We'll each eat half, otherwise I definitely won't be able to finish all of this by myself."

"……Um."

So it turned into eating while shopping.

The name "Golden Man Alley" refers to robots. In the past, countless starships traveled back and forth here, and Golden Men thronged the area. Foreign merchants came to enjoy Luofu cuisine, making it a very lively place.

In the realm of "eating," the people of Xianzhou believe they are second to none among civilizations.

However, whenever the immortal ships set out on patrol, they would leave their permanent area, and commercial activities would be completely replaced by the state of war, causing Jinren Alley to suddenly lose its liveliness.

Although there seem to be many passersby here now, compared to its peak period, it's less than half the number.

Hua Yi and Huo Huo found it convenient, as they didn't have to queue and could easily buy all kinds of delicious food.

"That's enough, that's enough. Stop buying. I can't carry any more, and I can't eat any more, you rich lady."

"Good, good."

After Hua Yi reminded her, Huo Huo, who was immersed in shopping, finally came to her senses and found that the food in the two of them had piled up into a small mountain.

The initial excitement of getting a chance to shine was replaced by a blush of shyness as Huo Huo wiped the food residue from the corner of her mouth.

"Whoosh..."

The murmurs of joy were soft, but they did not escape Hua Yi's ears.

"Haven't you gone shopping like this in a long time?"

"Yes, because I am possessed by a tail, other people treat me as an oddity and always avoid me. The diviners of the Taipusi also said that I have an ominous fate and am prone to attracting evil spirits."

"Just hiding?"

Hua Yi recalled the blind girl, one of the "Heavenly Defectors," whom he had encountered before.

She was being bullied by some naughty kids and was standing by the pond wiping away tears. If Hua Yi hadn't arrived in time, the girl would have panicked and run away amidst the commotion, and fallen into the water.

The immortal creature certainly wouldn't drown, but the humiliation and grievances would be enough to destroy any resilience a child could muster.

“Some people made fun of me. At first, everyone said my tail was on fire. Gradually, that nickname replaced my name and it became, ‘Hey, the one with the burning tail.’”

Huo Huo, looking pitiful, recounts her past.

Although both are code names, this name carries a completely different emotional connotation from the soft and chewy little cake.

Of course, Hua Yi had to pat her head.

"Children have difficulty judging the limits of jokes, and their tone at the time must have been quite excessive."

“I…I wasn’t bullied…It was Sister Tail who made me remove the talisman and then controlled my body to teach those people a lesson. After that, my nickname became [Possessed Demoness].

"Pfft."

It's a wonder that Huo Huo could utter such an domineering title while pouting; Hua Yi was all smiles.

"That's good. Naughty kids should be punished."

"Later, my peers were afraid to approach me, but demons and evil spirits kept coming to me. I also knew that the so-called evil spirits were just alien creatures or harmful intelligent life forms in some form. I wanted to cultivate the courage to defeat them, so I stayed up all night watching horror comedies, hoping to hone my courage, but in the end I only got dark circles under my eyes."

"Why is it a comedy?"

"Because horror movies are too scary! I want to take it step by step..."

"Haha."

They've considered quite a lot.

Shopping with such an interesting girl, Hua Yi had a smile on his face for a long time. Just as he was about to continue speaking, he suddenly realized something.

"Huo Huo, let's go over there."

"Huh? Okay."

The girl thought Hua Yi had found his favorite food and was about to take out the jade tablet again to use as his wallet when a sudden explosion came from in front of her, accompanied by a strong gust of wind.

"Run, everyone! A fight has broken out!"

"Cloud Cavalry, report to the Cloud Cavalry immediately! A violent incident has occurred in Jinren Alley!"

"One of the two men fighting was a member of the Yunqi Army. Was this the capture of a fugitive, or some kind of serious attack? This is no longer petty theft; we must strike hard!"

Chaos erupted around them.

Some passersby wanted to go forward to see what was going on, but their companions pulled them away.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the conflict involved two girls, and it might seem harmless at first glance. They are both travelers on the path of destiny, and it appears they were serious. The clash of their heavy swords produced a terrifying force that shattered the stone pavement. This was not a place for casual onlookers.

Chapter 437 Yun Li and Su Chang

Hua Yi had seen her once before, a girl running briskly through the street with a piece of lotus root cake in her mouth. She was also the friend Gui Naifen had mentioned, Su Chang, a newcomer to the Yunqi cavalry.

She was wielding a heavy sword, fighting against a petite girl who also used a two-handed greatsword, but whose fighting style was surprisingly expansive and powerful.

Hua Yi also knew Yun Li, the granddaughter of General Huai Yan.

Under the lights of Jinren Alley, the two heavy swords gleamed with a cold metallic luster. The blades looked incredibly heavy, and if you slammed them into the ground, they could shatter stone slabs and send dirt flying.

"Yes, to draw your sword and fight like this is how swordsmen greet each other, communicating with their hearts through the sword, which is more sincere than words!"

With a delicate shout, Yun Li gripped the sword hilt tightly with both hands and swung the heavy sword, which was wider than her whole body, with great force as she charged towards Su Chang.

The combination of a petite girl wielding a giant sword is visually striking, making one wonder if the weapon in her hand is made of plastic rather than metal, otherwise how could she lift it?

too heavy.

But as Yun Li charged forward, each step caused the alley to tremble slightly, proclaiming the profound authenticity of that force in the most undeniable way.

The weapon’s exaggerated weight is by no means a burden; the waist and abdomen drive the whole body, from the shoulders and arms through the wrists, and then all of it is poured into the greatsword.

She possesses innate superhuman strength and skill in amplifying it. Combining the two, the heavy sword moves with Yun Li as if it were an extension of her own arm, drawing a sharp arc with each movement as it is swung towards Su Chang.

boom!

The swords clashed, unleashing a sound comparable to the collision of starships. The sound waves, carrying a strong wind, shattered the windows of nearby houses.

Su Chang was forced to retreat step by step, holding upside down her family heirloom weapon, which was equally heavy but clearly smaller than Yun Li's. To deflect the force, she plunged it into the ground, shattering stone slabs and carving furrows in the earth.

In terms of both strength and skill, she was clearly inferior to Yun Li.

Dust filled the air, and Su Shang was covered in dust and dirt, her hands trembling from exerting too much force.

"Who are you? Suddenly shouting for me to see your sword and launching an attack on your own, there's something fishy about that! This isn't a normal sparring match anymore. I'm a member of the Cloud Cavalry! To put it bluntly, this is an attack on an official member of the Immortal Ship!"

Yun Li's pupils lacked focus, and she seemed somewhat dazed.

But she wielded the sword with great force and spoke very loudly.

“You’re not carrying the standard weapon of the Cloud Cavalry. That’s suspicious. A sword forged with the power of the sun continuously absorbs anger, bloodlust, and violence, backfiring on the wielder’s mind. That is a demonic sword. I am a swordsman who hunts the demonic sword of the sun. This time, I am questioning the sword.”

With her heavy sword raised high, Yun Li displayed terrifying strength that defied common sense among the people of the Immortal Ship.

"drink!"

This strike was powerful and heavy, like Mount Tai pressing down, crashing down on Su Chang.

The sword whistled, whipping up the girl's hair.

Su Chang's hands were already numb and her arms were trembling, so she couldn't muster much strength. Faced with such an exaggerated sword strike, her face turned pale instantly.

If I get hit by that, I'll probably turn into mincemeat.

boom! !

The heavy sword slammed down and indeed struck something.

The earth trembled, and a fierce wind carried gravel and sand, obscuring the view.

The bold bystanders who were originally watching had already scrambled away, but unfortunately, the shops in Jinren Alley didn't have legs and couldn't escape the battle zone. No matter how high-tech they were built with, they were like weeds, teetering on the verge of collapse under the pure shockwave.

After a while, the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, and in the deep crater that resembled a meteorite falling to the ground, Hua Yi stood beside Su Chang, using her family's heirloom weapon to steadily catch Yun Li's slash.

One hand.

The attack wasn't aimed directly at Su Chang; it should have slammed into the ground to the side, close to the girl.

Even though Suiyang was secretly devouring Yunli's seven emotions and six desires, and stimulating her strongest emotions, she still maintained her remaining rationality. After realizing that Sushang was no match for her, she urgently changed her sword stance.

But it's just a difference between smashing someone into mincemeat and causing serious injury.

If Hua Yi hadn't blocked the slash and deflected all the force...

"I'll borrow your sword for a moment, Cloud Rider Prodigy. You step back first."

"Oh...oh! Okay!"

Su Chang was still shaken. She wiped the dust off her face, intending to clean it, but ended up smearing it evenly.

With a slightly dirty face, the girl retreated to the back in a daze, not noticing that Huo Huo, the judge of the Ten Kings Division, was standing next to her with her hands full of talismans and her body tense, her golden eyes staring blankly at Hua Yi.

"Be careful, that guy is incredibly strong."

She was clearly flustered and failed to realize what it meant that Yun Li, wielding her sword with both hands and exerting all her strength to unleash a heavy blow, had it blocked by Hua Yi's single hand, which arrived later but arrived first.

The one with unbelievable strength now is another guy.

"Don't worry, I'll be extra careful so as not to damage your precious sword."

"It's called the Xuanyuan Sword. It's very sturdy, just a bit heavy. Use it as you like, don't be shy!"

Hua Yi held the sword in his right hand and gently stroked the blade with his left. After a brief glance, his gaze fell on Yun Li.

To prevent Suiyang from coming to find him and disturbing Huo Huo's happy time, he deliberately suppressed the outward fluctuations of his emotions, which resulted in Yun Li attracting Suiyang instead.

Hua Yi hadn't seen Yun Li for some time after General Huaiyan hosted a banquet for the train crew at the Shence Mansion.

At the banquet, the two didn't talk much. Yun Li was the junior who cleaned up the dishes after the meal.

Children should not interrupt when adults are speaking.

Even if Huaiyan intended for his granddaughter to befriend Hua Yi, he was thinking of finding an opportunity later. That banquet was a formal occasion for Emperor Gongtian and Hua Yi.

In terms of common ground, Hua Yi and Yun Li had relatively few conversations.

But he knew what the best course of action was next.

The sun and moon are drawn to strong human emotions, which can sometimes be understood as obsessions or inner conflicts.

Yun Li has a knot in her heart.

"Come, as you said, let's exchange hearts through swords."

Hua Yi gripped the Xuanyuan Sword and, with a seemingly effortless one-handed stance, swung it out.

In her daze, Yun Li didn't have time to think. Her eyes sharpened, and she instinctively retreated to buy herself time to recharge.

He gripped the sword with both hands, then suddenly thrust it upwards. The heavy sword collided with the sweeping blade, producing a dull thud. (Manor's)

The power did not erupt in an instant, so no new shockwave was generated that affected Jinren Alley.

Only Yun Li, who had personally experienced this sword strike and was forced to retreat repeatedly, knew that the terrifying power that could have completely crushed her was restrained and dynamically changed when the two swords clashed, maintaining the same output of force without being too much or too little.

He could have crushed himself, but he didn't.
