The Xianzhou Stellaron Erupts

Huohuo's little face flushed bright red in an instant. She quickly lowered her head and sat down, holding her Teacup with one hand and pulling at her hat with the other, looking like she wanted to escape reality.

"Awoo..."

"..."

Seeing Huohuo's reaction, Lin Shuang was unsure whether she should greet her or remain silent and wait a while.

God knows that in just half a day, they didn't even have time to say a single word.

It's all my fault for having a brain fart and Huohuo.

Seeing that the little girl's tea was almost finished, Lin Shuang handed her the teapot and immediately refilled it.

After drinking three cups of tea in a row, Huohuo seemed to finally recover.

He carefully raised his head and looked Lin Shuang up and down.

"Um... hello big sister. My name is, my name is Huohuo."

"Hello, my name is Lin Shuang. I'm sorry about earlier."

Lin Shuang pushed a small dish of tea and snacks on the table in front of Huohuo, indicating that she could have some.

"No, it's not your fault, I was just too cowardly..."

Huohuo shook her head, picked up a Pastries, and started nibbling on it.

"So, Huohuo, what brings you here to talk to me?"

Lin Shuang propped her head up and looked at Huohuo's drooping ears.

Both being Foxfolk, Tingyun's Tail stands high, while Huohuo hides her ears in her hair, making them almost unrecognizable at first glance.

"Actually... I just wanted to ask you, big sister, if you've encountered anything strange lately..."

Huohuo seemed to be trying hard to figure out how to explain the problem.

Ordinary people don't know much about the concept of "Heliobus," so if you just talk about it, people might not believe you.

Moreover, with so many people here, it's not appropriate to use the name of the Ten Lords' Court to make a fuss.

But Tail couldn't resist; it could smell the scent of Heliobus on Lin Shuang from afar on the bridge.

This woman practically wanted to be marinated by Heliobus.

Adding to that Illusion just now, he doesn't seem like an ordinary person who knows nothing.

"No way, I'm speechless. That white-haired woman just used Illusion to scare you, how can you still think she's an ordinary person?"

"Mr. Tail... you'd better keep quiet here."

Huohuo lowered her head and mumbled something to her Tail.

When he looked up, he saw Lin Shuang raise her finger and gently wave it.

Suddenly, the surrounding noise faded away, becoming barely perceptible.

It was as if the distance between the two people and the crowd had been suddenly increased by hundreds or thousands of meters.

Before Huohuo could react, her Tail suddenly popped out, transforming into a will- Ghostflame that stared intently at Lin Shuang.

"Heh, that's interesting. This is Heliobus's method of manipulating energy. Are you Heliobus now, or are you human?"

"Mr. Tail, what are you doing out here...?"

"If I hadn't come out soon, this woman would have eaten you alive!"

Tail stared intently at Lin Shuang; the aura just revealed by that one move had already triggered Tail's alarm bells.

The Heliobus, and an extremely powerful Great Heliobus.

The woman in front of me is definitely not simple.

Huohuo recognized the tone in Tail's voice and looked at Lin Shuang in surprise.

"Mr. Tail... could you... could you be mistaken?"

Could this beautiful and gentle woman in front of me be some kind of dangerous person?

"You're the one who's mistaken! Even if you were blind, I wouldn't be mistaken!"

Huohuo cautiously looked around and found that everyone around seemed to ignore the appearance of Mr. Tail.

No one showed any sign of coming over.

Only then did he realize that the older woman in front of him seemed to have used some rather extraordinary methods.

"I'm sure I didn't misjudge this little Heliobus, but I'm not someone who's been possessed and had my body taken over by Heliobus."

"Hehe--"

Tail gave a cold laugh, saying nothing, but there was a subtle indication that it was protecting Huohuo behind it.

As for Huohuo, she felt that Lin Shuang shouldn't be a bad person, so she tentatively asked:

"Does the older sister know anything about Heliobus?"

"Yes, I once borrowed books about the Heliobus from the Divination Department and the Divination Department, because I have a Great Heliobus suppressed within me!"

As Lin Shuang spoke, she spread her hands out in a claw shape and made a face at Huohuo.

This made Huohuo cover her mouth with her Commander's Banner and chuckle, but then she realized the key point in the sentence:

"Big... Big sister, is there also a Heliobus sealed inside you?"

Huohuo spoke, her eyes unconsciously drifted towards her Tail.

In that instant, Huohuo suddenly felt that the older sister in front of her had become much more approachable.

This was the first time she had encountered someone who also had a Heliobus sealed within them.

This instantly gave Huohuo a sense of kinship, like meeting someone of her own kind.

Even though she knew nothing about the older woman in front of her, she inexplicably felt she could trust her.

Volume 1: Chapter 228 The Xianzhou Stellaron Erupts

Lin Shuang didn't know why Huohuo's gaze towards her had suddenly changed.

She used to have that timid look in her eyes when facing strangers.

It suddenly transformed into a look of 'expectation,' like the look one would give to a companion.

However, Lin Shuang still nodded and said:

"Yes, it's a Great Heliobus that's been corrupted by Nihility, so it has completely lost its self-awareness."

After saying that, Lin Shuang recounted how the Great Heliobus had crashed into Acheron's body.

Of course, the name of Acheron was omitted, and he was only referred to as the Self-Annihilator.

Huohuo didn't react much, but the flame on its Tail flickered a few times.

"Good heavens, thank goodness I ran into you back then. I never thought there would be such an unlucky guy like Great Heliobus in this world."

"... I don't feel lucky at all."

Ignoring Huohuo's complaints, Tail clicked its tongue, feeling a little sentimental. That Great Heliobus was really too unlucky.

Of all the people in the universe, he just happened to run into a Self-Annihilator.

This is Nihility joke; even Heliobus will die if he gets infected with it.

And if that's really the case, then Lin Shuang suppressed Great Heliobus to maintain her state.

In fact, it saved the life of that Heliobus.

However, Huohuo looked up at Lin Shuang with curiosity:

"So, Sister Lin Shuang's Heliobus can't speak?"

"Hmm... I don't think so, do I? I certainly don't feel like its brain is still working."

Lin Shuang paused for a moment at this point.

The Great Heliobus, which was originally tainted with Nihility, inside the Full Load Bottle has recently merged with the power stolen from Phantylia.

The part filled with Destruction power is overwhelmingly strong; the Nihility is basically completely suppressed, but it has never been eradicated.

After all, the power of Destruction is uncontrolled.

In the safe haven of Full Load Bottle, the two forces miraculously became entangled.

If this were released, I really don't know what would happen.

Lin Shuang didn't know if any new consciousness had emerged inside. Anyway, it was behaving quite well in the bottle, so Lin Shuang didn't bother with it.

"No wonder Sister Lin Shuang can so easily control the power of Heliobus, that's wonderful."

Huohuo naturally interpreted Lin Shuang's state as Heliobus losing consciousness and becoming a tool at Lin Shuang's disposal.

Unlike the Mr. Tail, who not only needs to be called upon for every fight, but also often scares himself.

"Well... I guess you could say that."

Lin Shuang couldn't explain the issue of the Herrscher Core either, so let's just leave it at that.

It's pretty much the same idea anyway.

"Hey, I can't pretend I didn't hear that."

Hearing Huohuo say that, Tail suddenly became anxious:

"If it weren't for me, with your personality, you'd be bullied horribly by now. I should have swallowed you whole back then!"

"Hmph... Hmph! If you hadn't eaten my Tail, I... I wouldn't have been bullied like this."

Huohuo's tone was weak; even when arguing, it sounded like she was giving in.

It's really easy to evoke a protective instinct in others.

It's hard to imagine a Foxfolk arguing with its own Tail.

Especially after the Tail angrily burrowed into Huohuo's body, while the two were still nagging each other.

It looks really interesting.

So much so that by the time Huohuo finished arguing and looked up...

He met Lin Shuang's gaze, which was full of smiles.

Realizing that she might have just been laughed at by the older girl, Huohuo's little face turned red.

She raised her hands to cover her face, not daring to look at Lin Shuang for more than a second.

"Sister Lin Shuang... Yes, I'm sorry. Tail said you had Heliobus's scent on you, and I thought you were possessed by Heliobus."

No, I can't hold back anymore.

Seeing Huohuo's adorable appearance, Lin Shuang couldn't resist reaching out and patting her head.

Her long green hair was very smooth, and the downy hair on her ears was also very soft and fluffy.

Huohuo trembled a few times when her head was suddenly patted, but quickly relaxed.

Although it didn't raise its head, even the tip of its Tail twitched naturally a few times in rhythm with Lin Shuang patting its head.

They seemed to have absolutely no dislike for him.

Lin Shuang gently touched the Fox's ears with her fingers, then smiled and said:

"What's there to apologize for? Isn't this a demonstration of your responsibility?"

"Call..."

Huohuo lowered her head and let Lin Shuang stroke her head.

It's been such a long, long time since I've experienced this feeling.

Although the adults in the Ten Lords' Court take good care of her, they generally don't pat her head like this, treating her like a child.

As for Mr. Tail, although he usually takes good care of me, he never holds back when it comes to his words.

In an instant.

Feeling the warmth of Lin Shuang's palm, Huohuo couldn't help but sniff a few times.
