Chapter 587
Upon seeing the Foxian- woman in the picture, Phantylia immediately adopted a respectful expression.
"I've heard that you're working with Mr. Lin Yu, so now I order you—in the coming days, you must do everything in your power to assist him."
"But--"
Hearing Tingyun's urgent tone, Yukong smiled and said to Tingyun.
"There's nothing important going on at the Divination Department."
"Now, as the representative of our Luofu Xianzhou, you should properly entertain our distinguished guests."
PS: 4K, will continue tomorrow.
Chapter 37 was posted yesterday, but I don't know why it's not showing up. If you find anything wrong with the content, you can check it out above.
Trailblaze Chapter 39. Now that I'm here, your luck is extremely bad!
Looking at Yukong in the video, Huanlong Phantylia a bit like cursing.
Of all times, Tingyun's superior, Yukong, had to ask her to stay and accompany Lin Yu.
If it were someone else beside her, Phantylia might have thought this was an opportunity to stir up trouble and get close to Jianmu to make her plan succeed.
But what if the other party is Lin Yu...?
Although Phantylia, as a Commander, is almost invincible in the face of non-Commander-level combat power, that's one thing and that's another.
She couldn't gauge Lin Yu's strength, but he was clearly much stronger than ordinary Pathstrider.
To kill the powerful Pathstrider, Phantylia must use sufficiently powerful force.
Considering that Jing Yuan, the resourceful Seven Arbiter-Generals of the Divine Bow, was still lurking inside the Luofu Xianzhou, she strongly suspected that if she revealed her true power, he would definitely sense her immediately.
If Jing Yuan had discovered her whereabouts beforehand, then her subsequent plans... would probably have been completely ruined.
That's why Ms. Phantylia, who is currently unable to fight at full strength, looked troubled by Yukong's words.
"Okay, just do as I say. There's one more little instruction, remember to check it later."
After saying this, Yukong deliberately ended the communication and sent a message specially written by Jing Yuan to Tingyun.
"General Jing Yuan, is this alright?"
"Yes, of course."
Jing Yuan, who was standing next to Yukong, smiled and asked him a question.
"What, are you a little unhappy with my decision?"
"... This subordinate dares not."
"Alright, alright, I know you're a little unconvinced, so I'll tell you the truth now."
Seeing Yukong's seemingly calm expression, Jing Yuan suppressed his smile and immediately deployed a protective barrier, ensuring that only the two of them could hear the conversation.
"Actually, after Brother Lin Yu arrived at the Divine General's Manor, he had already told me about the mastermind behind this incident."
"Dan Shu was brought back by Yanqing after his disguise was seen through, which was also thanks to him."
"Oh?"
After hearing Jing Yuan tell the news himself, Yukong asked with slight surprise.
"This guest from the Stellaron Hunters is incredibly powerful?"
"Then may I ask, General, who exactly is the mastermind he speaks of, and what... what does this matter have to do with Tingyun?"
"This person has a terrible reputation; I'm Yukong you've heard of her, Yu Kong."
"The Destruction Lord [Phantylia] - Well, you should remember this person, right?"
After Jing Yuan uttered the name in a light and casual tone, Yukong revealed a wry smile.
"General, you flatter me. The Commander is the strongest force in the universe besides the Star God."
"And the Annihilation Ancestor Nanuk is one of the greatest calamities in this universe. His messenger, the Annihilation Lord, is a formidable enemy we must face. How could I not know the names of these people?"
After Jing Yuan mentioned Phantylia's name, Yukong understood why Jing Yuan had personally come to the Divination Department to ask Yukong for his assistance in handling certain matters.
This is a matter of great importance. The envoy is here to sabotage the Luofu Xianzhou. If we are not careful, the entire ship could be destroyed. For such an enemy, Yukong felt that whatever Jing Yuan did was not unreasonable.
She still didn't understand what this matter had to do with Tingyun.
After all, from the beginning until now, Jing Yuan's words have given Yukong the feeling that 'there is something wrong with Tingyun '.
This is not unacceptable to Yukong, who sees Tingyun as her successor, but it will definitely make her feel a little uncomfortable.
"Yes, we must fight with all our might against such an enemy."
"So, after realizing that what Brother Lin Yu said was true, I started to think about how I would act if I were her, with the premise that the enemy is Phantylia."
"Based on past information, what Phantylia may want is people's despair, pain, suspicion, collapse, and the destruction of the true love they have created with their own hands."
"And her modus operandi dictates that she will generally operate behind the scenes until things are settled, rather than actively coming to the forefront, so..."
"As the Phantylia behind the scenes, Huanlong probably needs to have a pair of 'eyes' to observe the changes in events."
Hearing what Jing Yuan said, Yukong picked up the conversation and asked Jing Yuan a question.
"So the general believes that Tingyun is those eyes?"
"Yes, that's right."
After affirming Yukong's statement without hesitation, Jing Yuan said to Yukong.
"As the Shipwright Department, Tingyun is among the group of people who have been adrift for the longest time on our Luofu Xianzhou. If we were to say who Phantylia, who is somewhere unknown, has the best chance of contacting, she would definitely be one of them—of course, that's not the main reason."
Looking at Yukong's expression, Jing Yuan knew very well that although his subordinate did not show any dissatisfaction, it was not because she understood Jing Yuan's thoughts, but because Yukong was no longer the same as before.
Now, as the head of the Divination Department, Yukong is no longer the same person who ran six red lights in a row back then. Even if she has doubts about her superior's orders, she will give him enough respect first, and suppress all her dissatisfaction, provided he is willing to explain to her.
"The main reason I had you issue this command to Tingyun is because—Brother Lin Yu seems to value her exceptionally much."
"Just because of that?!"
After asking the question in surprise, Yukong felt that Jing Yuan's judgment... couldn't be said to be that outrageous.
Although neither of them can be sure whether the mastermind is Phantylia, Lin Yu of the Stellaron Hunters has already revealed the identity of the leader of the Medicine Master's Legacy as Dan Shu after logging into the Luofu Xianzhou.
It's important to understand that the Medicine Master's Legacy is no easy organization to deal with. Lin Yu's single sentence revealed who their leader was. Then, he went on to help Yanqing brutally beat Dan Shu, while his companions directly helped the Cloud Knights suppress the remaining members of the Medicine Master's Legacy...
Judging from these events, Lin Yu and the people on the Stellaron Hunters are most likely on the side of the Luofu Xianzhou.
From this perspective, the probability that he deceived Jing Yuan is very low. Jing Yuan's judgment based on Lin Yu's actions is actually very reasonable.
"Since Brother Lin Yu insisted on taking Tingyun out for a trip even in such a critical situation, then from this point of view, Tingyun must have something worth Brother Lin Yu's time for."
At this point, Jing Yuan smiled helplessly.
"It can't be that Brother Lin Yu is willing to find opportunities to get to know Tingyun more often just because Tingyun is naturally beautiful, even though the Great Lord of Destruction could descend on the Luofu Xianzhou at any time."
"... Yes, that's really unlikely."
Realizing that his subordinates might actually be in trouble, Yukong Kong couldn't help but show a hint of helplessness in his expression.
"Tingyun, you..."
"Alright, don't worry too much. After all, the idea that Tingyun has a problem is just my speculation."
"Now focus on your own work, and you need to think about it from a different perspective—if Tingyun is alright, then she is actually the safest person by Lin Yu's side."
"I hope so..."
But General, you haven't finished speaking.
If Tingyun has a problem, then she, who is by Lin Yu's side, will have a hard time.
Although punishment is unavoidable for those who betray the Immortal Ship, however...
Sigh, entrusting the right to judge whether there is a problem with Tingyun to an outsider is still a bit hard for me to accept.
A few minutes later, somewhere on the Luofu Xianzhou.
Somewhere on the Luofu Xianzhou, after secretly reading the message Yukong sent her, Phantylia finally understood why Yukong had suddenly asked her to cooperate with Lin Yu at this time.
In the secret letter, Yukong expressed his dissatisfaction with Lin Yu, an outsider.
Although the Stellaron Hunters did help the Luofu Xianzhou a lot, Yukong still didn't quite trust these outsiders.
She felt that there was something wrong with Lin Yu separating from the other train crew members, so she hoped that Tingyun, who was traveling with Lin Yu, could seize the opportunity to monitor his every move.
Of course, Yukong knew that this was a very dangerous job for Tingyun, so while comforting Tingyun with words, he emphasized the importance of this job.
After reading the secret letter, Phantylia felt that the problem was even more troublesome.
She originally wanted to leave Lin Yu to carry out her mission, so she could find an opportunity to slip away.
But now, Tingyun's superiors are actually demanding that she keep an eye on Lin Yu, this outsider who came to help the Immortal Ship...
Although enemies are connected, they do not completely trust each other, which is a good thing for Phantylia, who is good at manipulating people's hearts.
However, Phantylia, who is currently finding it difficult to find an opportunity, strongly suspects that if she were to disappear, Lin Yu might directly contact the Xianzhou Alliance.
Then she was basically exposed.
Moreover, Phantylia and Dan Shu have lost contact. Considering that Medicine Master's Legacy suddenly went crazy and launched a strong attack on the Cloud Knights's garrison, she suspects that Dan Shu has probably also met with an accident.
This is bad.
If this continues, I feel like I'm going to ruin my plans.
Rather than continuing to delay, it would be better to... find a way to get close to Jianmu, seize Jianmu and the star core, and proceed according to the original plan.
Although the process went against my aesthetic of destruction, it was still much better than the plan failing.
Thinking of this, Phantylia glared resentfully at Lin Yu, who was walking ahead.
Damn it, ever since this man appeared, everything has been spiraling out of control.
If it had been a day or two later, the Luofu Xianzhou might have already been turned into a living hell by me.
"Oh, right."
At that moment, Lin Yu suddenly asked Phantylia.
"Considering that we may not have time to visit Luofu again in the near future with our Stellaron Hunters, I would like to ask Ms. Tingyun, a local, what are some attractions on Luofu Xianzhou that would be unforgettable for visitors?"
"About this..."
Having already decided to take the Phantylia, Huanlong rolled her eyes and smiled at Lin Yu.
"There is a place I dare to lead the way to, but I'm afraid my Benefactor wouldn't dare to go."
"Oh?"
Hearing Phantylia say what he had been waiting for, Lin Yu stopped and asked Tingyun with interest.
"Please enlighten me, Miss Tingyun. I, Lin Yu, have experienced countless battlefields since birth, and I truly do not know how to spell the word 'fear'."
"Haha, I was just joking with Benefactor."
Seeing the man in front of her unleash an incredibly terrifying aura as if to prove he had no fear, Phantylia really felt that this person was... a bit off.
But now, she has no choice.
If she continues to wait, although she won't face any risks, her plan will essentially be ruined.
Rather than the plan failing, Phantylia felt that since she was already here, and the Medicine Master's Legacy Technique had probably already inserted the Star Core, it wouldn't make sense for her to do nothing now...
Considering the methods of the Xianzhou Alliance, once Dan Shu wakes up, Phantylia's situation will be exposed.
Dragging it out will only make things more boring, so let's just...
— Taking advantage of this opportunity, they approached Jianmu to stimulate the power of the star core inside Jianmu, thus causing the great event of Jianmu's rebirth, which led to chaos within the Luofu Xianzhou.
Only after the scene became chaotic was Phantylia able to take further action.
So now, even though Lin Yu is acting very strangely, Phantylia can't care about that anymore.
"That's an ancient tree called 'Jianmu,' a treasure that the 'Luofu' Immortal Ship was once very proud of."
Speaking of the Phantylia of such 'scenery', a hint of nostalgia appeared on his face.
"Although this tree is now only half a rotten log, according to the 'Dream Records of the Upper Realm,' its full size at its peak was 'enough to reach the heavens and hang down to the stars.'"
