As soon as Lin Shuang boarded the Starskiff, her phone beeped with a transfer notification. The sender's name was 'Divination Department'.

Fu Xuan, sitting opposite Lin Shuang, had his left leg crossed over his right and sat upright with his legs crossed.

"Have you received it? There are some minor rewards, which weren't convenient to discuss in person just now. Aside from the Credits, you'll be notified via email about the rest. Xianzhou won't forget your favor to Xianzhou."

Lin Shuang glanced at the transfer amount and nodded, then her eyes inevitably drifted to Fu Xuan's white-stockinged feet.

Because he was sitting right across from her, Fu Xuan crossed her legs, causing her already short skirt to ride up even higher, almost exposing Fu Xuan entire thigh.

It looked exceptionally tempting.

"Cough..."

Perhaps it was because Lin Shuang's gaze was too direct, Fu Xuan immediately recalled his experience of Lin Shuang for a massage last time.

Fu Xuan assumed Lin Shuang was just using her professional instincts to look him over, so he couldn't help but cough, his cheeks slightly flushed, and said:

"I have important matters to attend to today, so I'm afraid I cannot ask Lin Shuang for a massage."

"... Ah, um, it's alright. Fu Xuan, if you ever feel tired, you can contact me anytime."

Upon hearing this, Lin Shuang realized that her gaze had been a bit too direct, and quickly looked away, focusing on the walls and interior of the Starskiff.

"Let's get back to the matter of the Lord Ravager. I will conduct a detailed divination based on the information you provided, Lin Shuang. If possible, I would like to ask you to help me with a divination as well."

Me?

Lin Shuang looked at Fu Xuan with a puzzled expression. Although the blush on Fu Xuan's face had not yet faded, his expression had become serious.

Fu Xuan nodded in response:

"You ruined the Abundant Doses teachings, and coincidentally, that incident was done for that Lord Ravager. Lin Shuang, you will definitely catch his attention. Starting with you, the divination results will be more accurate."

"No problem, no problem. It's just to have my fortune told by Fu Xuan once. It's nothing serious. You can do it whenever you have time."

As for cooperating with Fu Xuan's divination, it will likely involve a trip to the Grand Void Astral Compass.

Lin Shuang was quite curious; the Grand Void Astral Compass looked quite imposing in the game.

As for whether her secrets would be discovered, Lin Shuang wasn't too worried. The Grand Void Astral Compass was essentially still based on deduction of information, not on the ability to decipher Remembrance out of thin air.

More mischievously than that, Lin Shuang wondered what kind of adorable expression Fu Xuan would have if, while deducing the Grand Void Astral Compass, he 'accidentally' saw what he looked like in Lin Shuang's Remembrance.

To be fair, Fu Xuan is indeed very powerful, but he's also quite adorable!

The usually serious and proper Grand Tutor, with his adorable blushing face, was truly irresistible.

If it weren't for the fact that it was so rude, Lin Shuang really wanted to hold Grand Tutor in her arms and cherish him.

Of all the people Lin Shuang knows, Grand Tutor is undoubtedly the cutest.

At the same time,

Acheron in the void, and not far away, the Xianzhou Luofu sailed slowly.

When Huang Quan passed by the Starport where the two had stayed, Acheron had considered whether he should contact Lin Shuang and ask her to open a Portal to take him back to the Xianzhou.

But then I thought, if I just let Lin Shuang know that I'm back, wouldn't the original training plan be ruined?

"Hmm... I'd better observe quietly for now. If nothing happens, I won't let Lin Shuang know, otherwise she'll definitely scold me."

As he muttered to himself, a slight smile appeared on Acheron's lips.

Then, Acheron took a step across the void and entered Luofu without any hindrance, without attracting anyone's attention.

"Let me think, what is Lin Shuang doing right now...?"

Volume 1: Chapter 78 What does it mean to get married everywhere?

Xianzhou--

Fu Xuan was fortunate that he had no idea what Lin Shuang was thinking at the moment.

Otherwise, Gao would have given Lin Shuang a couple of kicks, kicking her right out of the Starskiff.

As for the Qingque.

Qingque, standing beside Fu Xuan, remained completely silent, resolutely acting as if she were invisible.

At this moment, Qingque was almost crying inside. Was that something a lowly diviner like her could possibly listen to...?

What Lord Ravager, what Phantylia —are these secrets she should know?

She knew it! Coming to the Divination Department with Lin Shuang today was bound to be bad news.

Starskiff arrived at the Divination Department first, Fu Xuan left ahead of him.

Because Qingque still had to take Lin Shuang to the Crafting Division to have a Greatsword custom-made for Lin Shuang, Qingque was able to slack off for another day.

But at this moment, Qingque's face was full of joy, and she was brimming with energy.

He slumped in his chair, looking like he was completely 'burnt out'.

At this moment, Acheron discovered that a vague inspiration was guiding him, and he easily found Lin Shuang's location.

Having easily evaded the guards on the Starskiff, Acheron openly observed the two through the window.

Just then, Lin Shuang was thinking of going over to 'comfort' Qingque when her phone suddenly beeped with a message notification.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the Silver Wolf, which had disappeared overnight, had reappeared.

[Great God Silver Wolf of the Gaming Realm: [Link] New game, create an account! Hurry, I'll play tonight.]

As soon as she clicked on it, the result was a new game share. Lin Shuang glanced at the chat history that had abruptly ended yesterday, and then looked at the link to the new game.

Is this person trying to pretend nothing happened and let it go?

[Four-Core Greatsword:?]

[Great God Silver Wolf of the Gaming Realm: What's up? Hurry up and register, let's play tonight!]

[Four-Core Greatsword: No way, you even asked me to agree on a time yesterday, and you're just planning for nothing to happen today? You scumbag?]

[Great God Silver Wolf of the Gaming Realm: Get lost! You're the one planning to get married everywhere, how dare you tell me that?]

[Four-Core Greatsword: So what are you doing? Oh... I see, you want to...]

Lin Shuang deliberately left her sentence unfinished, only providing an ellipsis, and the other side exploded without any suspense:

[Great God Silver Wolf of the Gaming Realm: If you dare utter that word, you're dead tonight!]

Lin Shuang couldn't suppress her smile; she just couldn't understand why Silver Wolf cared so much about the title of 'father and son'.

Back in the dorm days, there were as many fathers and sons as there were people in the dorm.

That's perfectly normal.

What started as a joke has turned out to be quite amusing.

[Four-Core Greatsword: Okay, okay, fine, I'll listen to you.]

Meanwhile, far away at the Stellaron Hunter' base, Silver Wolf sat on the sofa and snorted.

She wasn't actually that angry, or rather, she didn't really care about jokes about 'father and son'.

What she really cared about was the origin of this title; it was because Lin Shuang's unethical act of stealing the victory that prevented her from becoming a father.

Who is Silver Wolf? She doesn't care about relationships at all. Marriage or father and son, she doesn't care. All she cares about is winning or losing the game.

As a result, this bastard not only used underhanded tactics to win a game, but also kept bringing up the same old story every time.

This is nothing short of the ultimate humiliation for Silver Wolf!

If Lin Shuang had thought of this, she probably wouldn't keep provoking Silver Wolf like this.

Unfortunately, even though Lin Shuang knew that Silver Wolf treated the entire universe as a game, she didn't immediately think of this.

After all, she herself has never treated her entire life as a game, and I really haven't deeply understood this kind of playful attitude towards life.

Lin Shuang kept teasing him, Silver Wolf naturally couldn't tolerate.

Even now, even if she were to play the role of Bo Sha Lin Shuang a thousand times in the game, she still couldn't get over this hurdle.

She's already planning to wait until Lin Shuang goes to Azur Star, and when she summons the Doomsday Beast, she'll teleport this guy right to the Doomsday Beast's face.

[Great God Silver Wolf of the Gaming Realm: Anyway, stop talking nonsense and hurry up and pre-download the components. We're playing with Sam tonight too; I finally managed to get you some free time.]

Lin Shuang was stunned for a moment when she saw this sentence while sitting in the Starskiff.

Sam... Firefly are here to play too?

Speaking of Silver Wolf, isn't he a classic tsundere? His toughest thing is his mouth.

They seemed impolite on the surface, but after just one night, they were practically setting me up with Firefly!

Silver Wolf's sudden display of arrogance really caught Lin Shuang off guard.

[Four-Core Greatsword: Uh... Duck Duck, you managed to get this over here? I thought you were the only one in your group who knew how to play games.]

[Great God Silver Wolf of the Gaming Realm: If you hadn't been so quiet all night, would I have bothered doing all this?]

Even Silver Wolf, who sent the message, couldn't help but roll his eyes at the screen.

I added Kafka and Sam yesterday, but this person didn't even send a greeting all night.

How fresh!

I didn't realize this person was so quiet when we chatted before.

[Four-Core Greatsword: Oh dear, I really forgot. Your declaration last night was so shocking that I just forgot.]

[Great God Silver Wolf of the Gaming Realm:...]

Seeing the string of ellipses Silver Wolf sent, Lin Shuang smiled and clicked the link. After watching her phone automatically download, Lin Shuang switched to Sam's chat and sent her first message:

[Lin Shuang: Hello, my name is Lin Shuang. Silver Wolf told me you'll be playing games tonight too? Thanks for cooperating with us.]

[Lin Shuang: [Paimon is happy]]

Sam replied quickly, but it was only a single emoji.

[Sam: [Paimon agrees]]

Seeing the emojis, Lin Shuang suddenly remembered that there was such a thing; she had seen it when browsing posts before, and Firefly's chat was full of emojis.

Oh no, I've run into someone who chats using emojis.

[Lin Shuang: I'm glad you don't mind. Also, I forgot to greet you yesterday because Silver Wolf came over and caused a scene. I apologize in advance.]

[Sam: [Paimon makes a heart shape with his hands]]

Lin Shuang fell silent for a moment. No, she couldn't continue the online conversation with the "Emoji Master" at all...

It seems Silver Wolf's decision was right; face-to-face communication is indeed more convenient.

[Lin Shuang: [Paimon gives a heart emoji]]

[Lin Shuang: See you tonight. I also need to say hello to Miss Kafka, so I won't bother you any longer.]

[Sam:[Paimon]]

"..."

Lin Shuang was speechless for a moment. She could understand Firefly's meaning through the emoji, but it was really difficult to reply with just an emoji.

I should go and say hello to Kafka's mother.

Oh... Kafka isn't my mom anymore, she's Trailblazer.

In this world, are Trailblazer stars or the firmament?

Lin Shuang stroked her chin. She didn't know about this either. The Stellaron Hunter should know, but she didn't feel comfortable asking.

Switch to Kafka's chat window.

[Lin Shuang: Hello, Miss Kafka, my name is Lin Shuang, it's a pleasure to meet you.]
