Removing Fu Xuan's Third Eye and Seeing Through Her White Stockings [Second Update]
Near Exalting Sanctum, there are Star Skiff guarded by the Cloud Knights, which both Ji Yuan and Huohuo can easily Star Skiff. At this moment, Ji Yuan was very glad that his actions in Scalegorge Waterscape had not been exposed by any media; he estimated that only some high-ranking experts on the Xianzhou knew about them.
If he really becomes a celebrity, he probably won't be able to have a moment of peace whenever he goes out.
The three boarded the Star Skiff, Firefly found the experience of flying in mid-air quite novel. She leaned against the window, looking out with great interest at the various grotto-heavens of the Luofu Starfaring Vessel.
At this moment, Ji Yuan picked up his phone to contact Tingyun.
She previously mentioned that the Astral Express encountered a Star Core blocking its path. I wonder if the Star Core issue has been resolved. If it has, I'll go find her and also address the debt I incurred. I wonder if the Interastral Peace Corporation will respond to me in the next couple of days.
"Shh, I'm going to make a phone call to Tingyun, so keep your voices down."
Ji Yuan said to Huohuo and Firefly.
Huohuo nodded earnestly.
Firefly asked Huohuo curiously, "Huohuo, who is Tingyun?"
"Tingyun is the teacher's girlfriend."
Huohuo answered softly.
"Oh oh."
Firefly nodded, showing an understanding expression.
Ji Yuan then connected with Tingyun on the phone.
As soon as the call connected, Tingyun said to Ji Yuan in a resentful tone, "Ji Yuan, you busy man, you finally remembered me."
Ji Yuan quickly replied, "Well, I've been really busy lately. I have to help Teacher Ruan Mei with some things, and I also have matters to attend to at places like the Divination Commission on the Xianzhou. After I finish revising the Matrix of Prescience today, all that's left is to reply to the Interastral Peace Corporation. I'll come find you then."
As he said this, he felt incredibly awful. But he wasn't even sure if he truly wanted to be this way. If he wanted to, it was always Ruan Mei, Jingliu, or Phantylia who forced him; if he didn't want to, Ji Yuan could clearly sense that he was happy.
He even feels that he is evolving into Cheng Ge.
Etc,
I hope I won't die the same way as Makoto in the future.
A sudden inspiration flashed through Ji Yuan's mind.
However, he quickly shook his head.
It shouldn't be that bad.
On the other side, Tingyun only complained slightly, but wasn't really angry.
Hugging her knees, she rubbed her feet and smiled as she said to Ji Yuan, "Xing, my friend from the Astral Express, and Miss March 7th came to that planet together. Hmm, this planet is really cold; my feet almost froze off."
Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan immediately said, "Where are you now? I might have a way to deal with the cold."
"Don't worry, we've arrived in the only city on this planet. It's quite warm in the city, and the hotel is especially comfortable."
Ji Yuan heard Tingyun rolling around on the soft bed through his phone.
After rolling around for a while, Tingyun continued, "The people here seem to have been out of contact with the outside world for a long time. They have little concept or Remembrance of either the Xianzhou or the Astral Express. It took us quite a bit of effort to get here and contact the highest-ranking local official. Well, he's called the Great Guardian. And..."
Tingyun's words trailed off with a hint of sarcasm.
"That Great Guardian named Cocolia, although she spoke very politely, I could clearly sense that she harbored deep malice. I reckon that she arranged for us to stay at the Goethe Hotel, the largest hotel in Belobog, and that she'll start making her move on us around midnight."
Tingyun is no novice.
She was able to establish numerous trade relationships throughout the galaxy with the [Resonant Flame] merchant group. While the power of the Celestial Ark Alliance certainly played a role, her own abilities were even more important. Cocolia some tricks up her sleeve in Belobog, but they were nothing to Tingyun; she was seen through at a glance.
"Goodness, she's really got some nerve!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan's expression instantly changed.
How dare they lay a dirty trick on Tingyun?
Is that alright?
Ji Yuan immediately said to Tingyun, "Come on, you two find a place to ensure your safety first. I'll be there soon. I want to show her just how terrifying the interest accumulated over seven hundred years is."
"Very well, then I will wait here for my hero to come and save me. When that time comes, I will have nothing to repay you with but my body."
During the phone call, Ji Yuan clearly heard Tingyun swallow hard after saying that. Ji Yuan felt like a little rabbit walking straight into a fox's trap when he went to Belobog.
Putting those feelings aside, Ji Yuan continued chatting with Tingyun until they reached the Divination Commission) before hanging up.
After hanging up the phone, Tingyun stretched out a long yawn.
"Next, we'll see what that Great Guardian plans to do."
In the other two rooms, Tingyun had already instructed March 7th and Xing to make arrangements. If anyone dared to come, Xing would definitely give them a good whack on the head with Baseball Bat.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Um?!
Is it that Cocolia who's here?
While I was thinking, a girl's voice came from outside the door.
"Hello, guest inside, would you like our services? Wouldn't you like someone to comfort you after your journey this night? Now, for just a small amount of Winter City Shield, you can spend the night with a beautiful young woman."
Upon hearing this, Tingyun was taken aback.
Do any hotels around here offer door-to-door service?
Tingyun knew all this, and she found it both funny and exasperating.
Was this arranged by that woman named Cocolia? Probably not. When Tingyun saw Cocolia, she could clearly see the disdain in her eyes for the Astral Express group. Under normal circumstances, she wouldn't do something like this.
Thinking that the sounds coming from here would soon be heard by Xing and March 7th, Tingyun walked to the door and opened it.
She wanted to see what was going on.
Pushing open the door, a tiny little girl appeared before her.
Before she could react, the little girl suddenly leaned against Tingyun, one arm tightly around Tingyun's waist, and the other hand around Tingyun's back, gently teasing her neck. At the same time, the little girl also wrapped one leg tightly around Tingyun.
"Stop, stop, stop! I'm a girl too!"
Tingyun quickly pushed the little girl away.
"Actually, I can be a woman too."
The extremely petite girl looked mischievously at Tingyun's fingertips, as if she was expecting something.
Seeing her like this,
Tingyun felt her hand being pulled inside.
Where did this little hooligan come from?
She carefully examined the little girl's appearance.
Unlike Belobog's usual fully covered attire, her clothing was quite revealing. She wore a strapless top that exposed her small, delicate shoulders, while the hem of her skirt showed a considerable amount of skin. She had a cherry blossom tattoo on her shoulder and wore a choker around her neck.
With her bangs and black, gradient-colored hair styled into twin ponytails, she exuded a youthful charm. A red and white fox mask adorned her hair. Her appearance was incredibly cute, with large eyes adorned with red eyeshadow. Beneath the red eyeshadow, two dots added a touch of eerie allure.
Wearing wooden clogs, their small bare feet looked mischievous, and the red stains on their feet carried a dangerous air.
At this moment, Xing and March 7th also came over and surrounded the little girl.
Seeing the three people appear, the girl hesitated for a moment before saying to them, "Three? Well, that's not impossible, but it will cost extra."
"What is this?"
March 7th looked at Tingyun with a puzzled expression.
Xing, on the other hand, picked up Baseball Bat.
Upon seeing the Baseball Bat, the girl immediately looked terrified.
"This is impossible, even if you offer more money."
After saying this, she ducked down and left the encirclement of Tingyun and the other two.
As she was leaving, she said to Tingyun and the other two, "Um, if you don't need room service, I can provide you with more. Feel free to ask me, Sparkle, for anything you need."
After saying that, she disappeared from Tingyun and the others' sight.
Tingyun and the other two were completely baffled.
Then, in the back alley of the Goethe Grand Hotel, Sparkle appeared with a smile.
Beside her was a tall young man.
The man, with a wry smile, asked Sparkle, "Hey, Sparkle, I was originally going to check on those people who got off the planetary train. But you went straight there! Are you trying to steal my Sampo?"
"What for? To get acquainted with you, of course! That Miss Tingyun is very important to me."
Sparkle said with a smile.
Sampo asked her, "Oh? Does she have any other secrets?"
Of course.
"Could you tell old Sampo?"
Sparkle waved her hand and said to Sampo, "I already said it's a secret, so of course I won't tell. Also, with me here, don't even think about asking about her. Otherwise, this planet might not be enough for me to play around with."
At the same time,
I also felt a little regretful.
Phantylia's situation told her that if she pretended to be Tingyun, she wouldn't be the one having fun; she would be the one having fun.
"However, I've heard that Ji Yuan is quite the ladies' man. If I were to stir up some trouble in that area, it wouldn't be a bad idea."
Sparkle thought to herself.
Ji Yuan also arrived at the Divination Commission).
Qingque was squatting at the entrance of the Divination Commission, idly fiddling with the Jade Abacus. When she saw Ji Yuan and the others appear, her face immediately lit up with surprise and delight.
"My fellow card players, you've finally arrived! I've been waiting for you for ages. The Lord Diviner said my task today was to wait for you. Now that you're here, I can finally go and fight for the Jade Abacus."
She rubbed her hands together excitedly and said.
However, just as she finished speaking, Fu Xuan appeared beside her.
"I only said that your current task is to wait for Ji Yuan, not that this is all your work for today." Fu Xuan patted Qingque on the shoulder.
"Today you'll work as Ji Yuan's assistant. You'll have to fulfill any of his needs."
Qingque's eyes darted around, seemingly indicating that she was planning to slack off.
However, at this moment, Fu Xuan continued, "Also, I will be watching."
Qingque's face immediately fell.
Chapter 143 Removing the Fu Xuan Mystic Eye to See Her White Stockings [Second Update]
Fu Xuan now has two things he can't stand the most.
One was Ji Yuan who did the work, and the other was Qingque who didn't.
She couldn't stop Ji Yuan from doing his work. After all, Ji Yuan was modifying the Matrix of Prescience for the sake of Luofu's important business. She couldn't let Luofu Starfaring Vessel not be corrected and adjusted in time just because of her guilt, could she?
Therefore, Fu Xuan had no choice but to leave Qingque to do nothing.
With me around, don't even think about slacking off.
Fu Xuan proudly raised his chin at Qingque and walked forward.
With a heavy heart, Qingque put the Jade Abacus into her sleeve.
If Ji Yuan were alone, Qingque would naturally find a way to slack off. But now that Fu Xuan is also present, Qingque simply can't find a way to slack off.
She could only look at Ji Yuan with pleading eyes and whisper to him, "My friend, you don't need much time today, do you?"
"Well, I'm afraid I can't say for sure, but the workload will definitely be considerable. Qingque, you should prepare to work here all day today."
Ji Yuan said in a joking tone.
Qingque's eyes widened.
Fellow card player, don't cheat people like this.
I can fight the enemy with you and fight Jade Abacus together, but if I have to work overtime with Ji Yuan, wouldn't that really kill her?
