Chapter 584
If Lin Yu wanted to harm him, he felt he would have absolutely no chance of waking up in the short term.
The sword energy shatters the physical body, and the illusion lamp imprisons the consciousness. Only those who can withstand this double test after this sword strike will be qualified to continue fighting Lin Yu.
But then again, after being exhausted both physically and mentally, how many people could continue fighting Lin Yu and win?
"Okay, stop thinking about it so much."
After gently flicking Yanqing's forehead with his finger, Lin Yu said to Yanqing seriously.
"That's the end of our playful banter. Take Dan Shu back, and the general will give you other tasks."
"I see."
Still savoring the memory of that sword strike, Yanqing looked at the unconscious Dan Shu on the ground and realized that he still had an important mission to complete.
After watching the young swordsman drag Dan Shu's body away quickly from this place, Lin Yu also walked out of the alley.
Using the Illusion Lantern - Sword God technique on Yanqing was a spur-of-the-moment decision, but after this strike, given Yanqing's talent, he would likely become much stronger than when he entered this alley.
Although Luo Fu now has an additional high-end combatant because of his arrival, having a stronger Qing army fighter in the battle against the Destruction Lord is definitely not a bad thing.
Moreover, the reason he came here to personally capture Dan Shu was not because he felt he had nothing better to do.
After talking with Jing Yuan, Lin Yu secretly examined Tingyun, whose body he had corrupted but who was completely unaware of it.
After careful examination, he discovered that—, Phantylia had already possessed Tingyun.
In other words, Phantylia is now attached to Tingyun. Given the right opportunity, she will switch Tingyun out and replace him on the Immortal Ship. She will then seize the Jianmu Tingyun the Star Core according to her plan, and finally destroy the Luofu Xianzhou with the dual power of destruction and the Abundance.
However, after a moment's thought, Lin Yu chose an operation that was not very friendly to Tingyun.
He deliberately left some of his power on Tingyun before leaving Tingyun side, intentionally giving Phantylia the opportunity to switch Tingyun with someone else.
According to his conjecture, the one who pursues the Phantylia of "spiritual" disillusionment and despair may not directly kill Tingyun, but will choose to let Tingyun know that "because of her powerlessness, the Immortal Ship was infiltrated by traitors, which led to the destruction of the Luofu Xianzhou", and then let Tingyun herself despair.
Of course, Lin Yu could sense if Phantylia wanted to kill Tingyun directly.
If the other party really makes a move, Lin Yu is confident that he can save them when Phantylia does.
Although this would expose some things, he couldn't just stand by and watch someone die.
However, it now appears that Lin Yu's guess was correct.
After completing his elaborate scheme of switching the prince with a cat, Phantylia informed Tingyun, who should have had absolutely no chance of returning to the Immortal Ship, of his actions.
From God's perspective, this operation was absolutely reckless.
However, for the messenger, informing a lowly soldier of the immortal ship of his plan and then imprisoning him was at most a perverse pleasure.
After all, compared to those envoys who are not good at fighting, the Destruction Envoys are all powerful fighters. Even someone Phantylia, who is a Suiyang, is actually a super expert.
To worry that a little fox who has barely grasped the power of destiny will become the starting point for a comeback—that's not prudence, that's paranoia.
"Sigh, Tingyun is unlucky too."
At this moment, Lin Yu began to circulate his power, locking onto the special spatial coordinates where Tingyun was imprisoned, while simultaneously creating a body that looked exactly like Tingyun's.
"As a member of the merchant group, she travels around all day, so Phantylia happened to have his eye on her because she was easy to replace and, although her status wasn't particularly high, she could still come into contact with high-ranking people."
"Then she ran into me, the scoundrel who used her as bait to catch her..."
As he finished talking to himself, Lin Yu had already silently arrived at the special space created by Phantylia. He left the fake Tingyun in place and directly sent the real Tingyun into the Devil's Castle, taking the real Tingyun away from this space.
Although he could wake Tingyun, who had just been knocked unconscious, right now, considering the mental pressure Tingyun was under, Lin Yu felt it was better for Miss Fox to stay asleep.
Phantylia has already begun to take action, and she will find out about Dan Shu's capture sooner or later.
As long as she's mentally sound, it's only a matter of time before she realizes something's wrong.
So now, I should prepare a small, extravagant gift for her.
At this moment, Lin Yu, who was drifting around using the Herrscher of the Void's abilities, instantly teleported to the vicinity of a certain express delivery station on the Immortal Ship.
Inside the station, a man wearing a blue baseball cap was furtively holding a packaged parcel, preparing to mail it out.
Just in this moment...
"Oh, you're too kind."
Lin Yu, who appeared behind the man, snatched the package from his hand and smiled at him.
"You're here, why bring a gift?"
"Um, this..."
Seeing Lin Yu suddenly appear in front of him, the man sighed helplessly and couldn't say anything.
If it were anyone else, the man might have pulled his baseball cap down and tried to slip through the cracks.
However, having dealt with Lin Yu before, he knew very well that there was no point in pretending to be confused in front of Lin Yu.
After all, the fact that Lin Yu was here meant that he had already seen through his disguise.
"When old friends meet, why be so formal?"
After tossing aside the surprise gift box that would automatically explode but wouldn't hurt anyone, Lin Yu began to stretch his limbs and continued to smile at the man.
"Or is it that Brother Svarog wants me to greet you in some special way?"
"No need for this, Brother Lin Yu!"
After taking off his baseball cap, Svarog said to Lin Yu with a grin.
"I rushed over from Jarilo as soon as I saw my brother was in trouble on the Immortal Ship."
Ah, although I came here because I thought the Stellaron Hunters would be fun, but...
I underestimated him after all.
When exactly was my whereabouts completely exposed?
"Alright, that concludes the pleasantries."
Seeing that Svarog no longer intended to pretend, Lin Yu spoke to Svarog with an unchanged expression.
"Knowing you're here for entertainment, this time I've prepared a show that's good enough to satisfy you."
"Just for this play, I need Brother Svarog to lend me a hand and help me with some small things."
"Oh, my dear friend—I, Svarog Kosky, would go through fire and water for you if you just said the word."
"Exactly..."
At this moment, Svarog suddenly asked Lin Yu with utmost seriousness.
"I know you have big deals, but could you tell me how big this deal is?"
"Well, let me put it this way..."
"Unlike the minor skirmishes on Jarilo's side, the main characters of this drama are the two Commanders."
"I wonder if Brother Svarog would be interested in a deal of this size?"
Upon hearing Lin Yu's speech, a captivating light suddenly flashed in Svarog's eyes.
"... Is this really true?"
"It's absolutely true— the Masked Fool is afraid that others can fool him?"
Hearing Lin Yu's words, Svarog shook his head with a wry smile.
"Hey, other people don't have this ability, but Brother Lin Yu... you're quite mysterious."
"I can sense that your strength is still improving rapidly, brother. If some people in this drama underestimate you..."
"I think they're in for a lot of trouble."
"I, Svarog, am just an insignificant clown, not an ignorant idiot."
"Just tell me what you need—since you trust me so much, I'll definitely help you to the end and see it through to the end."
"It's like sending a Buddha to the Western Paradise."
After correcting Svarog's deliberately misspoken words, Lin Yu still told Svarog the truth in advance.
"The task I'm asking you to do might offend both the Xianzhou Alliance and the Anti-Matter Legion."
"Oh, this..."
After scratching the back of his head slightly, Svarog said with a grin.
"Well... sigh, forget it. I'm too lazy to pretend in front of you anyway. You'll definitely see through me and won't play along."
Too lazy to continue pretending, Svarog casually shrugged at Lin Yu.
"The Anti-Matter Legion are top-notch lunatics; there are several other forces in the universe that are not within their attack range."
"As for being enemies with the Xianzhou Alliance —that's only temporary at most."
"Your standards are too high; even when doing good deeds, you want to do them perfectly. In this situation..."
"You will definitely try your best to save the Immortal Ship. If you succeed, you will become the benefactor of the Xianzhou Alliance. If you fail, the Ironclad Luofu Xianzhou will not have time to care about me."
"You certainly won't let me suffer a loss, so..."
"—In this situation, do you think I have anything to be afraid of?"

"In Honkai Impact 3rd, I switch bodies with Firefly at the start."
Synopsis: Luo Shuang, who unexpectedly transmigrated to the Immortal Ship, thought that she would only be able to live an ordinary life of clinging to Xiao Guizi's coattails and playing cards with Qing Que.
Unexpectedly, she was bound to the Pig System, and when she woke up, she had swapped bodies with Firefly and was required to fulfill her wishes.
After finally managing to switch back to her original body, Luo Shuang discovered that this was just the beginning.
Robin, Bronya (Honkai Impact 3rd), Yomi, Kiana, Lei Movie...
Miss Liushuang: Little Blade, if you ever dare to beg for death in front of me again, don't blame me for slapping you across the face.
Robin Frost: My foolish Onii-chan, don't force me to Divine Might Hard to Hide Tears.
Bronya Luo Shuang: So your name is Kevin, right? I heard you're going to revoke my driver's license? Go ahead and revoke Sam's too.
Thunder Frost: Little Eight, do you think my three-colored dumplings will appear on their own?
Oh no, I'm cute today too!
Trailblaze Chapter 37. Our army... suffered no casualties.
Hearing Svarog's very direct words, Lin Yu could only say that talking to smart people really saves a lot of trouble.
Although Svarog hadn't had much contact with him, the man was incredibly shrewd and had already figured out his character to some extent.
In this situation, Svarog, as a person who enjoys himself to some extent, would naturally choose to give Lin Yu some small help when the time was right, for the sake of his own pleasure.
Moreover, Lin Yu now realized that this guy was really restraining himself around Jarilo.
Upon arriving at the Immortal Ship, although he still did not release his destiny energy, the Immortal Ship was much more dangerous than Jarilo's place. Even Svarog maintained a state of 'being ready to fight and run away at any time'.
"Since Brother Svarog has put it that way, then..."
Lin Yu walked up to Svarog, whispered a few words in Svarog's ear, and then patted Svarog on the shoulder with a smile.
Upon hearing these plans, Svarog immediately turned to Lin Yu with a troubled expression, shaking his head with a wry smile.
"Brother Lin Yu, you're giving me way too much credit."
"Not to mention the heavily guarded area around Jianmu, even if I had the ability to get there, I wouldn't be able to do the job you assigned me."
"What are you saying—that you can't even overcome this little difficulty for the sake of pleasure?!"
At this moment, Lin Yu suddenly questioned Svarog with a serious expression.
"Is this all there is to your pursuit of pleasure?!"
If it were a young person with limited experience, hearing Lin Yu's forceful question, they would likely have some doubts about themselves.
But Svarog is different—he's always the one fooling people, no one else ever fools him.
