"All right, let's consider our current situation."

Ji Yuan said to Tingyun.

Only then did Tingyun's expression change.

They had been thinking about romance just now, but the danger had not diminished in the slightest.

They were still in a dangerous place, and Destruction Lord Phantylia was still on this planet. Escaping would still be extremely difficult.

Tingyun fell into thought.

In the end, she made up her mind and said to Ji Yuan, "How about you abandon me? Keep pretending you don't know anything, then return to the Luofu Starfaring Vessel and find the General. The General will resolve all of this."

"Hey, wouldn't that mean I did nothing at all? Don't worry. I came here to take you out."

Ji Yuan said as he stroked Tingyun's cheek.

"No, I already know how you feel. That's enough for me." Tingyun wrapped her arms around Ji Yuan again and said softly, "The power of a Lord of Destruction is beyond anything we can resist. As long as you survive, that's enough. Ji Yuan, after you return, keep being as steady as you always were. Live on, and live my share as well. I don't want to see you again within the next hundred years."

"Don't think like that. I'm taking you out right now. I prepared for this in advance, so don't worry. We'll both be safe."

Ji Yuan smiled at Tingyun.

He had already formed a plan before, and now that he had obtained a pile of new items, Ji Yuan felt his chances of success were even greater.

It was a little risky, but for Tingyun, it was worth it.

"Ji Yuan, don't joke around. Don't take any risks."

Tingyun still shook her head.

It was simply too dangerous.

What could Ji Yuan possibly do?

That was a Lord of Destruction!

"If it were another Lord of Destruction, I wouldn't have any way either. But she happens to be Phantylia, someone who enjoys manipulating people's hearts. And let me tell you something: Phantylia is also a member of the Suiyang race."

Tingyun covered her mouth in shock and asked Ji Yuan, "The Suiyang race? Can your Suiyang Manipulation Technique work on her too?"

"Ahem, that's still somewhat difficult at the moment." Ji Yuan's handsome face reddened slightly when Tingyun said that. "All I can say is that these things can reduce the chance of Phantylia discovering us."

Seeing Ji Yuan's embarrassment, Tingyun hurriedly comforted him. "That's still amazing."

Although he knew Tingyun meant it sincerely, it still felt strange.

Forget it. No point overthinking it.

Ji Yuan quickly took another item from his pocket.

A Suiyang.

A sealed Suiyang.

Tingyun would not have recognized a Suiyang before, but after spending so much time with Huohuo, she had learned a little about them.

"A Suiyang? When did you get a Suiyang? How did you do that?"

Tingyun could not help looking confused when she saw the Suiyang in Ji Yuan's hand.

Carrying a Suiyang around would get anyone brought before the Ten-Lords Commission for judgment, unless they were a Ten-Lords Commission judge like Huohuo. Suiyang were incredibly dangerous, and no one was allowed to possess one without an order from the Ten-Lords Commission.

Even Huohuo only had Tail with her. Whenever she set out with the Cloud Knights, she had to report it to them.

The Suiyang in Ji Yuan's hand had clearly been taken in secret.

How had he done it?

This was a serious crime.

"That's my secret. This Suiyang didn't just fool the Cloud Knights—it even fooled Phantylia."

Ji Yuan smiled at Tingyun.

He felt that the system within him had to possess an authority greater than that of an Emanator. He did not know whether it had reached or surpassed an Aeon's level, but even a powerful Emanator like Phantylia could not discover the things he had hidden on his person.

He set the Suiyang aside.

"Whether you can escape successfully next depends on this Suiyang."

Tingyun looked at Ji Yuan in confusion.

This Suiyang did not seem particularly strong. At the very least, compared to Phantylia, the difference was enormous. How could it help her escape?

Ji Yuan did not answer. Instead, he took out the forged corpse.

When an eyeless corpse appeared, Tingyun jumped in fright and instinctively took a step back with her little feet.

"Hey, hey, hey, what is going on?"

She asked Ji Yuan.

Had he killed someone?

"This is your corpse."

Ji Yuan answered Tingyun.

"Huh?"

Tingyun's face was full of confusion.

My corpse?

When did I die?

As Tingyun wondered that, Ji Yuan began adjusting the forged corpse according to the system's instructions.

Very quickly,

A naked "Tingyun" corpse appeared before him and Tingyun.

Tingyun could not hide the shock in her eyes when she saw it.

He had just created her "corpse" like that?

But—

"Why is there not the slightest difference from my body? Not just the figure—even the details of every other part are exactly the same."

This was not something he could understand from a hug. He would have needed to see it with his own eyes to make it.

When had he seen her?

Tingyun looked at Ji Yuan suspiciously.

Could it be that he had been secretly paying attention to her from the very beginning?

Ji Yuan's gaze drifted away.

He had used the X-Ray Glasses to look earlier, and while shaping the body, he had subconsciously made it that way.

"Ahem, it's new technology. Let's talk about something else."

Ji Yuan quickly changed the subject.

There was still one more thing he had not taken out.

He quickly pulled the Light-Speed Star-skiff from his storage space.

When a Star Skiff suddenly appeared in the room, Tingyun was so shocked she nearly bit her tongue.

That person-sized corpse had been one thing, but this Star Skiff was as large as the entire room.

"You don't have a pocket on your stomach, do you?"

Tingyun looked at Ji Yuan suspiciously.

Seeing him casually pull out all sorts of strange props, Tingyun was beginning to wonder whether Ji Yuan was even human, or some robotic cat from the future.

"I don't like dorayaki, and I'm not afraid of mice."

Ji Yuan complained speechlessly.

I just turned on a tiny little cheat.

A tiny cheat didn't count as cheating.

Looking at the things before him, he said to Tingyun, "All right, I've prepared everything. Now it's time to figure out how to help you escape."

Ji Yuan felt that he could not waste any more time.

If too much time passed and Huohuo woke up, it would be over if they were discovered.

"Mm."

Seeing that Ji Yuan had made preparations, anticipation rose in Tingyun's heart as well.

If one could live, no one wanted to die.

Now that Ji Yuan had a way, Tingyun was eager to see exactly what he had prepared.

Ji Yuan silently took out his X-Ray Glasses and put them on.

"Hm? What new item is that?"

Tingyun asked curiously.

Thoughts After Going Premium Following the Mass Release

Hello, everyone. This is newbie author White Hair. After last night's mass release, this book was ready to go premium.

Thanks to my editor Pudding, and thanks to all you readers for your support. It is only because of your support that I can write enjoyable books.

During this period, White Hair had been writing two books at once. Both the old Genshin Impact book and the new Honkai: Star Rail book were being updated, which had been quite a test of both my energy and stamina. Star Rail especially—although White Hair was among the first players, UID 100950018, and had cleared all the story content, I had read fewer of the specific texts and details. While writing, White Hair had been consulting a huge amount of material, spending a great deal of time on it every day. I hope everyone will not find too many mistakes.

Fortunately, White Hair persevered. There were enough words today, so the book could finally go premium smoothly.

It was all thanks to your support that I had the motivation to keep updating.

The book goes premium today, so I hope everyone can support it more.

After all, writing depends on passion in the short term, but in the long term, subscriptions are also needed for motivation.

Especially since White Hair's health had not been good these past two years, and after getting a girlfriend, writing every day had become even harder on my body.

I hope everyone can support White Hair with some subscriptions so I can buy some goji berries.

Two books plus a girlfriend,

I had to pay tribute three times. I really couldn't take it anymore.

Of course, if there were more subscriptions, it would be even better if White Hair could buy a few more kidneys.

White Hair bows here in gratitude to everyone.

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The premium update will be released at six o'clock tonight. I hope everyone subscribes quickly.

White Hair wants to eat more kidneys!!!!

"Ahem, these are just research glasses."

Ji Yuan coughed, not daring to explain them to Tingyun.

If Tingyun discovered what the X-Ray Glasses did, he would lose all face.

After all, he had used those glasses to see Tingyun's body in its entirety just now.

"Is that so?" Tingyun narrowed her eyes at Ji Yuan, feeling that there was not a single truthful word in what he had said.

But forget it. Even if Ji Yuan could use those glasses to see her body, it did not matter.

Sooner or later, he would see it anyway.
