The First Meeting
Ruan Mei lowered her eyes and thought to herself that perhaps it was the feeling she exuded when they first met that was somewhat captivating.
Honkai energy is a very strange type of energy.
Ruan Mei picked up the container containing the Honkai Crystal, looked at the Honkai Crystal that were less than the size of her palm, and thought about their special properties. Suddenly, an idea came to her.
If this material is combined with Propagation, could it prolong...?
Kiana, far away on the Ark, was unaware of Ruan Mei's insane idea; otherwise, she would have rushed over, grabbed Ruan Mei's leg, and begged her not to do anything reckless.
Since there was nothing to do while sitting, and it wouldn't be good to keep bothering Ruan Mei, Kiana sat on the bed and looked at the messages that others had sent her recently.
First, there's Jana, who's not very proficient at using a mobile phone yet, and then there's the Nightingale chats with her about her recent situation.
She continues to steadfastly practice her principles.
When Yomi returned to the room, Kiana had just finished chatting with the others and was playing a game on her phone.
She had just been chatting with someone at the door for a while.
"I just chatted with someone for a while, and the Ark will stay docked at the Xianzhou for at least half a month."
"So, do we have to stay on the Xianzhou for this long too?"
Kiana put down her phone and looked at Yomi with curiosity.
"If there's nothing else..."
Yomi sat down beside her and said, "Sirin is right, this is a responsibility I must bear."
"However, we don't need to get involved in the matters of the Ark and the Xianzhou; Sirin and Bronya will handle them themselves."
"Let's just treat this as a vacation."
Yomi thought for a moment and said, "You don't need to worry about other things, as there's Sirin and the others, and me too."
Is it about establishing diplomatic relations?
Kiana thought about it and realized that she really couldn't help in any way. If it were Yaoqing, she would know a few people.
Luofu...
Although she was very familiar with Luofu's generals and diviners, this was all one-sided familiarity.
The Calamity of Jianmu in Luofu had not yet occurred, so she naturally did not have any advantage of foresight.
I'll do whatever you say.
It's just the establishment of diplomatic relations; the real drama hasn't started yet, so there's unlikely to be any major problems at this stage.
Kiana immediately put those thoughts aside, and took the opportunity to hug Yomi, nuzzling her face and acting coquettishly.
"Mei is my wife, right?"
Are you still thinking about what Sirin said?
Yomi's voice softened slightly. He turned his head and kissed her on the cheek, asking with amusement, "Are you bothered by this?"
Yomi's voice was already beautiful, and when he whispered in her ear, his voice soothed her heart.
Kiana blushed, her eyes darting around, and she stammered, "Well, well, I wasn't that bothered..."
"Don't worry about what other people think."
"I don't care what other people think!"
Kiana said.
She doesn't care what others think; it's her own thoughts that make her care so much!
No, but...
If it's Mei...
Kiana's face flushed even more. She suddenly pulled away from Yomi, picked up her phone that she had tossed aside, and said, "Since you're just killing time anyway, play games with me."
To be honest, there are so many games available on mobile phones that it's dazzling to see them all.
It's perfect for killing time.
Anyway, there's nothing else to do right now, and there's nothing else to do on the Ark either. If I'm not playing games, all I can do is chat aimlessly.
"Game?"
Feeling the sudden departure of warmth, Yomi felt a sense of loss, his hand, which he had almost raised, remained clenched in a half-open fist.
"Right!"
Kiana laughed and said, "Play with me, I've never played games with Mei before."
But I...
"I'll teach you!"
"... Then I'll give it a try."
Yomi was willing to accompany her to try things she had never done before, but she really had never been exposed to these things before.
Time flies, and several more days have passed.
I don't know the specific procedures, but in any case, the Ark passed through the Jade Gate and docked at the Sea of Stars of Luofu Xianzhou.
At the same time, a Reception Envoy from the Stellar Sea Department came to receive them, but unfortunately, the Reception Envoy was not Tingyun, whom Kiana remembered, but a Foxfolk she had never seen before.
However, through the conversation between the other party and Sirin and the others, Kiana managed to glean one thing.
That is, this Reception Envoy knew them, had interacted with the Ark in other worlds, and was also the one who mentioned to Sirin and the others the possibility of cooperating with the Xianzhou.
Kiana's gaze was somewhat strange.
No wonder Sirin thought of cooperating with Xianzhou instead of a company or other forces; it turns out she took the polite words from the Xianzhou native seriously.

Chapter 138 First Meeting.
Therefore, the purpose of this trip is different.
So the Reception Envoy led them directly, traveling with them all the way to the Divination Department.
Not many people came to the Divination Department. Besides Yomi and Kiana, there was only Sirin and Bronya, the smartest person on the Ark.
The discussions with Xianzhou mainly involved Sirin and Bronya.
"Haha, you must be guests from Izumo."
The white-haired youth seemed to have been waiting for a long time, a faint smile on his lips, "I am Jing Yuan, General of the Luofu Cloud Cavalry. It's a pleasure to meet you all."
He was General Jing Yuan of the Divine General.
Kiana was no stranger to this general; anyone who played the Honkai: Star Rail game could easily forget the storyline of the Five Boxers Under the Clouds and Jing Yuan.
The young boy holding a sword beside him must be Yanqing, the guy who said, "There are five of us, and I have to take on three of them."
"We are also very pleased to meet General Jing Yuan."
Sirin seemed quite used to dealing with people in this kind of setting, and she showed no stage fright even when facing an Emanator.
"I am Sirin, currently serving as the leader of the Ark. This communication with the Xianzhou will be handled entirely by me and Miss Bronya beside me."
Jing Yuan nodded with a smile, but her gaze swept over Yomi and Kiana, who was not introduced.
"This must be Miss Yomi, right?"
His gaze finally landed on Yomi, finding her without a doubt.
The most mysterious and impossible Emanator.
The omniscient Emanator.
Yomi still uses an alias when speaking to outsiders. Although Sirin found it a bit strange, she respected her decision.
Let people outside call them whatever they want.
Anyway, she'll still call her Raiden Mei.
Yomi nodded slightly. She remembered what Sirin and the others had said and didn't speak. Although they had just met, she could tell that this General Jing Yuan was no ordinary person.
The more you say, the more mistakes you make; it's better to say nothing.
We can leave everything to Sirin and the others.
"Yes, she is Yomi."
When Sirin mentioned the name Yomi, she almost paused slightly, since Raiden Mei had always called her that, and she didn't know when she had started using an alias.
"I heard that Miss Yomi seems to be searching for the whereabouts of the Sea Patrol Ranger?"
Kiana's ears perked up. Where did Jing Yuan hear this news? Sirin and the others probably don't know much about this, right?
Sea patrol knights...
Yomi looked at Jing Yuan: "I have been entrusted with something, and I need to return it to the patrolling sea knight."
Return it to the sea patrol knights?
It was a very simple sentence, but it contained a lot of hidden information. Jing Yuan extracted a lot of useful information from her words.
"It was at someone's request. The Jade Abacus Xianzhou was also searching for the sea patrol knights, but unfortunately, since that incident, the knights have become unexpectedly difficult to find."
You can't see your destiny just by looking at your eyes.
However, one could indeed sense the mystery surrounding this Miss Yomi, and that... subtle yet undeniably pervasive sense of danger.
He is no ordinary person.
Even if the other party is not an ethereal Emanator, they are probably not far off.
Many civilizations want to cooperate with the Xianzhou, and the Xianzhou doesn't need to form alliances with other worlds because it is the dominant power itself.
Seven Emanator.
This is unique in the world.
However, not needing it doesn't mean we should refuse it in this situation. No matter where we are, Emanator always a force that cannot be ignored.
Especially...
Izumo is the only civilization that emerged from the void and even possesses an Emanator of Nihility.
This is simply a miracle.
They have no reason to refuse the request for cooperation.
Of course, this is on the premise that the other party is genuinely coming with good intentions and not with ulterior motives.
This requires them to make a careful judgment.
Yomi nodded. She had searched for a long time but had not found any trace of the sea patrol knight, so she could only postpone the matter for the time being.
It's also possible that the method used was flawed.
Perhaps she shouldn't have thought of going to find her herself, but should have tried a different approach, like the method Kiana used to find her.
She could try to create some noise that would attract the attention of the sea patrol rangers, so that they would come looking for her.
However, this kind of commotion is not easy to cause.
First of all... the message has to travel far enough.
"General Jing Yuan, you must already know why we've come. So... what are the Xianzhou's intentions?"
Seeing that he had veered off-topic, Sirin quickly steered the conversation back on track, saying, "Why are you talking about sea patrol heroes now?"
They haven't finished their business yet.
"The alliance, right? I saw Izumo's letter at the Stellar Sea Department. I understand your intentions. The Xianzhou doesn't mind having another friend."
You don't mind? You agreed so easily?
Kiana was just about to be surprised when she saw Sirin raise an eyebrow and say to Jing Yuan, "General Jing Yuan, please feel free to speak your mind if you have any doubts."
"Haha, Miss Sirin has a very straightforward personality."
