"Hey, why are you being so mysterious?"

Hearing that Welt did not answer her question, March 7th pouted and said.

"You too, and Lin Yu too, you're both so secretive."

"Alright, alright, we know now is not the time. After things are settled on the Immortal Ship, we'll ask you what other killer moves you haven't used yet."

"As for now..."

After turning his gaze to Kafka, March 7th looked at Kafka lying on the ground and made a face at Kafka.

"Rua, you naughty woman, now you know how powerful we are, right?"

No, I think I probably don't know just how amazing you guys are.

Seeing the little girl making a face at her, Kafka felt even more helpless.

If I had known you had so many talented people on your side, I might have had to slightly alter my plans based on Acheron's prophecy.

If things had gone according to plan, Kafka would have been captured by the Celestial Ship and the Stellaron Hunters after the water was released.

Then, after the Xianzhou native used their secret methods to uncover the truth and confirmed that what happened on the Celestials had nothing to do with the Stellaron Hunters, Kafka would find another opportunity to retreat.

However, although the first half of her plan encountered a minor setback, it has been implemented smoothly so far.

But the problem now is that before she can leave, she'll probably have to see if that bespectacled man will give her the time of day until she finds a way to get rid of this power within her.

Unfortunately, Kafka not only had no close relationship with the other party, but to a certain extent, they were even enemies.

She was one of the company's most wanted criminals, and Kafka, who had appeared in front of the train crew earlier, clearly hadn't left a good impression either.

Furthermore, although Jizo Mitama Young controlled Kafka's body with Welt Mitama, he was still watching her warily. Kafka felt that it was better not to rely on the other party being careless.

This is difficult.

While Acheron's parable is certainly not wrong, this time...

—The variables we face have not only increased, but they also seem to be so "large" that they pose an immense challenge for us.

Moreover, Kafka has even come up with an idea now.

The person who defeated her was undoubtedly the unassuming bespectacled man in front of her.

But the one who actually did it... might not have been her.

Although it's unnecessary to make strange connections at this point, once you think about it, considering that even Silver Wolf's electronic warfare defenses were almost easily breached by that mysterious person, perhaps she had already been tricked before she even entered the Immortal Ship.

Sigh, the problem is getting more and more serious now.

Silver Wolf, I hope you realize the seriousness of the situation and find a time to retreat as soon as possible.

Otherwise, this time it wouldn't just be me and Ah Ren...

—Maybe even you will experience some unnecessary hardships in the future.

Divine General's Manor

Inside the Divine General's Manor, Jing Yuan, who had already obtained the information from Lin Yu, naturally launched an investigation into it as quickly as possible.

Now, Jing Yuan has received both good news and bad news.

The good news is that the information he can currently confirm is enough to prove that some of what Lin Yu said is true.

The bad news is...

The information he has been able to confirm so far is enough to prove that some of what Lin Yu said is true.

The blond man was the one who smuggled the star core into the immortal ship—this was something he hadn't confirmed.

However, after Qing Xuan sent people to investigate, Jing Yuan was basically certain that Dan Shu was the master of the Medicine Master's Legacy.

After Lin Yu finished explaining these matters, he even gave Jing Yuan enough details and wrote a document to explain to Jing Yuan why Dan Shu, a Dan master with a high status in the Xianzhou Alliance, would go to join the Medicine Master's Legacy.

As it turns out, the documents provided by Lin Yu now largely match some of the intelligence that Qing Xuan has investigated.

If it were anyone else, Jing Yuan would consider the possibility that 'this person had made prior arrangements to frame and harm others.'

But Lin Yu has only just arrived at the Xianzhou Alliance.

In terms of time, this amount of time was simply not enough for Lin Yu to carry out his operation.

Of course, if we were to delve deeper into the analysis, the possibility that "the Pathstrider creates an energy clone while chatting with Jing Yuan and secretly framing Dan Shu" is not entirely out of the question.

But how could Jing Yuan, as one of the Seven Arbiter-Generals of the Divine Bow, be the kind of indecisive person?

In the original timeline, in order to lure out the traitors within the Xianzhou Alliance, he even slowed down the progress of handling some matters.

It was only after realizing this that Fu Xuan helplessly shouted at Jing Yuan, "General, you bad guy!"

Now that the safety of the Luofu Xianzhou is at stake, Jing Yuan naturally wouldn't have any hesitation.

In fact, when Qing Xuan began investigating the other party, he sent Yanqing to invite Dan Shu to the Divine General's Manor for a chat.

With Yanqing's current strength, Jing Yuan believed that his little apprentice could handle this task well.

If Dan Shu is really alright, then Jing Yuan will have a casual chat with Dan Shu about ordinary topics.

If there really is a problem with Dan Shu...

"General, something terrible has happened."

After confirming the message she had received, Qing Xuan spoke urgently to Jing Yuan.

"Yanqing just sent word that Dan Shu followed in Yanqing's footsteps quite naturally after seeing him."

"But near a certain alley, just as Yanqing sensed that someone was lying in ambush there, a group of people Medicine Master's Legacy suddenly attacked."

"Those people were no match for Yanqing, but Dan Shu took advantage of the chaos to escape."

"... Sigh, she's hiding something."

Listening to Qing Xuan's report, Jing Yuan sighed helplessly.

He had originally thought that if Dan Shu really had a problem, then secretly dealing with her would at least save face for everyone.

After all, this person truly holds a high position in the eyes of many. If it were to be revealed that she was already a disciple of the Medicine Master's Legacy, Luofu Xianzhou, which was completely unaware of this, would lose all face.

But now... it's embarrassing.

Our internal systems have been corrupted, but we haven't even realized it, and we even have to rely on external friends to point it out.

"Ah, General..."

Upon seeing the newly received message, Qing Xuan's expression changed immediately, and a hint of joy appeared on her face.

"Mr. Lin Yu just sent a message through our special communication channels that he has apprehended Dan Shu."

"Moreover, he told the general not to worry, that the commotion was very small, and that apart from Yanqing, who came here to chase Dan Shu, no one knew about it."

"... That's excellent."

Hearing the news from Qing Xuan, Jing Yuan lazily propped his head up with his hand and yawned.

"With a righteous person like Brother Lin Yu to help us solve our problems..."

"--This can be considered a great blessing for my Luofu Xianzhou."

However, this problem still seems quite serious.

After Brother Lin Yu arrived, he gave us enough information, which helped us avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble in advance and saved us a lot of time, allowing us more time to prepare for battle.

Even so, I could still sense that he was now doing everything in his power to deal with the impending disaster that was about to strike our Luofu Xianzhou.

There is no doubt that he is a righteous man worthy of our admiration.

The biggest problem now is that—despite so much preparation, he is still so nervous.

Therefore, judging from this perspective, in the eyes of those who "know so much intelligence," our current preparations are still insufficient.

It seems this ordeal won't be easy to overcome.

Luofu Xianzhou. In a small alley.

When Yanqing arrived at the scene, Dan Shu, who had already changed into the Medicine Master's Legacy, was lying at Lin Yu's feet.

"Wow, Brother Yanqing, you're fast on your feet."

Seeing the boy appear before him, Lin Yu whistled and then kicked the blood-covered Dan Shu right next to Yanqing's feet.

"I've already crippled this guy. Take her back to the Divine General's Manor."

"This..."

Looking at the wounds on Dan Shu's body, Yanqing immediately imagined part of the scene when Lin Yu and Dan Shu fought.

Judging from these wounds, Lin Yu easily inflicted sufficiently severe injuries without actually harming Dan Shu's life.

Such control... indeed, this man is definitely a master.

"Oh, look at that expression."

Seeing the expression on Yanqing's face that he shouldn't have had at this moment, Lin Yu said with a slight headache.

"Everyone's so busy right now, especially at a time like this..."

"—You're not going to tell me you want to fight me here, are you?"

PS: 4K, to be continued tomorrow.

Trailblaze Chapter 35. Considering you're strong, I won't hold back.

"This..."

The boy, whose thoughts had been exposed, realized that he had indeed revealed emotions that he shouldn't have shown at that moment.

As a member of the Luofu Cloud Knights, Yanqing naturally knew that this incident concerned the Star Core, and was of great importance. Everyone on the Luofu Xianzhou should do their utmost.

However, at the same time, upon realizing that the man before him was a master, Yanqing's identity as a Cloud Knights couldn't quite suppress his identity as a swordsman.

Honestly, Yanqing now felt really bad. After all, Lin Yu was there to help, but he was actually thinking, 'This guy is so strong, I want to have a match with him'...

The leader of the Medicine Master's Legacy has indeed been captured by Lin Yu, but this does not mean that the Medicine Master's Legacy Teachings have stopped their operations.

As Jing Yuan's apprentice and bodyguard, Yanqing was not completely ignorant.

Dan Shu, this traitor, has too much prestige within the Xianzhou Alliance. If it were to be made public that she is the leader of the Medicine Master's Legacy of the Luofu Xianzhou, the Xianzhou Alliance would lose all face.

If a Dan master of Dan Shu's caliber can be the leader of the Medicine Master's Legacy, then once this is made public, it's impossible to prevent others from becoming suspicious of their comrades and colleagues in the logistics department.

That is why, even if they capture Dan Shu, they cannot immediately reveal Dan Shu's identity.

"Alright, I didn't mean to blame you."

Seeing Yanqing lower her head in shame, Lin Yu said helplessly.

"Having a desire to win and a fighting spirit is a good thing, and the fact that you didn't take direct action shows that you are reasonable."

"General Jing Yuan has taught you very well. Considering how sensible you are, it wouldn't be a problem for us to exchange a few moves."

"Is that really true?!"

Upon hearing this, Yanqing excitedly bound Dan Shu with ropes. After confirming that Dan Shu could not escape, she looked at Lin Yu with shining eyes.

"Of course I'm serious."

After conjuring a jet-black Xuanyuan Sword, Lin Yu poured Dimensional Force into the weapon in his hand.

"Moreover, considering that Brother Yanqing's talent and strength are both top-notch—and considering that you are very strong, then I won't hold back."

"That's excellent!"

After listening to Lin Yu's speech, Yanqing assumed a fighting stance and clasped his hands in a fist salute to Lin Yu.

"Please enlighten me, Professor Lin Yu!"

Seeing the boy's excited expression, Lin Yu couldn't help but sigh. Even though the boy in front of him had the same name and appearance as someone else, he still couldn't connect him with that man.

What a fine little rascal! With Jing Yuan watching over him, there's no need to worry about him going astray.

Considering this... well, let's not leave him with any psychological trauma.
