During her walk, Nguyen Mai discovered something quite novel.

"Are the trash cans on your Herta Space Station cleaned every day? They look much smoother than the floor."

Upon hearing this, the Herta Puppet wore a speechless expression.

"This was done by the human body that carries the star core."

"It seems there's still a lot to study about that child."

Ruan Mei said something casually.

I entered Herta's office.

Because of her previous experience creating Simulated Universe, Nguyen Mai is very familiar with this.

At this moment, there are two other people in the office besides the Herta Puppet.

One was a gray-haired girl, and Ruan Mei noticed with a little attention that there was a star core in her body.

The other one is Tingyun. Upon seeing Tingyun, Ruan Mei knew just how closely Phantylia imitated her.

"Ms. Ruan Mei, what are you planning to do by looking at me like that?"

Tingyun noticed that Ruan Mei was staring at him and asked her a question.

"It's nothing, I was just thinking about what to do next. How to settle you down properly," Ruan Mei said calmly.

That's so unbelievable. Why do I feel a hint of hostility in your expression?

Looking at Ruan Mei's expression, Tingyun thought to himself.

However, she still asked Ruan Mei hesitantly, "How is Ji Yuan doing now?"

Ji Yuan had told her a lot about his recent situation, but Tingyun was worried that Ji Yuan would only report good news and not bad news, so after seeing Ruan Mei, she couldn't help but want to ask her about it.

Ruan Mei made a thoughtful expression, thought for a while, and said to Tingyun, "I don't know Ji Yuan's current situation either, but I took some protective measures for him before I came. If everything goes smoothly, things will be much more interesting."

Is that so?

Although Tingyun sensed that Ruan Mei was implying something, she was still relieved.

Just then, she felt a tap on her shoulder. Tingyun turned around and saw that it was Xing patting her shoulder.

"Now you can rest assured, your boyfriend, who is the best in the world, will be fine."

"Wh-what?"

Tingyun blushed slightly at Xing's words.

"If that weren't the case, why do you keep calling out Ji Yuan's name every night before you go to sleep?" Xing continued, patting Tingyun's shoulder.

During this period, the two of them lived in the same dormitory room, sharing a bunk bed.

Xing could hear everything Tingyun said in her sleep at night.

She originally intended to tease Tingyun, but after hearing Xing's teasing, Tingyun gently opened her fan and admitted, "Of course, my boyfriend is incredibly talented, so naturally I have to think about him more."

Tingyun looked at Xing, wanting to see her reaction after he admitted it. But seeing that Xing was still smiling, he instantly realized something was wrong.

Wait, did Xing wash her hands after rummaging through the trash can?

Tingyun immediately got goosebumps all over her body.

Seeing Tingyun's expression, Xing couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Haha, you got me! I wouldn't actually go so far as to cheat my friend. I burn incense and clean myself every time I come into contact with or leave the trash can."

Tingyun: "..."

Ruan Mei looked at her thoughtfully, while adding a note to her mind.

The bearer of the star core has a mental state consistent with that of a girl aged fifteen to twenty, and shows signs of fanaticism towards a certain thing.

Herta walked up to Ruan Mei and said, "Alright, now I'll take you to finish your business. Also, Himeko from the Astral Express is still at the space station, so we can go and discuss some things."

"Um."

Herta and Nguyen Mai walked outside.

As they walked, Herta told Ruan Mei about her situation.

"I've already set up your private laboratory, and your experiments at the Herta Space Station can continue at any time. Have you had any ideas recently about creating the Propagation Emanator?"

Ruan Mei thought for a moment, then said to Herta, "I intend to suspend the plan to create the Emanator for a while."

"Are you planning to train Ji Yuan first?"

"Yes." Ruan Mei nodded.

Herta then said to Ruan Mei, "What are your plans for Tingyun and Xing's future? Xing has a star core, so it's not impossible for her to stay on the space station, but I feel it's not good for her development."

She suggested, "Why don't we let the two of them board the Astral Express? We can tell Himeko to make sure Tingyun is well protected so she won't be discovered. We can also let Xing continue to be Tingyun's bodyguard. The Astral Express, which travels through the starry sea, can conceal most of its tracks. After the Xianzhou incident is over, we can have Ji Yuan pick up Tingyun and observe and study Xing's body."

"That's good too. Although Ji Yuan is exceptionally talented, he doesn't have the kind of attitude that's willing to do anything for the truth. With Tingyun around, he can have more motivation to do his research."

Nguyen Mai highly approves of this.

"If someone with such a personality can still possess abilities that amaze you, then his talent is probably even more terrifying."

"Yes." Ruan Mei chuckled softly. "Ji Yuan is my most valued experimental collaborator, student, assistant... and most perfect work."

It's nothing to cultivate Emanator; what truly satisfies Ruan Mei is cultivating someone who can stand by her side.

"Hmph, judging from your expression, you wish you could have him by your side every day. Let's go, let's hurry up and find Himeko. Once you've settled things here, you can go back to the Xianzhou to find your student."

"Of course I will."

Nguyen Mai said without the slightest hesitation.

Herta Himeko, Screwllum are all quite intelligent, but their areas of expertise differ. While Ruan Mei can communicate with them, she doesn't particularly enjoy it. Ji Yuan, on the other hand, excels in her own area of expertise, making their collaboration highly efficient.

Herta looked and shook his head.

Nguyen Mai is incredibly lucky to have found someone in the life sciences field who is just as talented as her. And like Nguyen Mai, she can talk to Screwllum, but they can't really have a truly enjoyable conversation.

When will she meet such a genius and be able to have a free and easy conversation with him?

Subsequently, Herta and Nguyen Mai found Himeko on the Astral Express.

Himeko is a stunning beauty with fiery red hair and a mature, intellectual beauty in her eyes. Wearing a military-style jacket over a pristine white high-slit dress, she sits on a sofa, her long, slender, snow-white legs drawing attention.

Himeko was still a guest at the Herta Space Station at that moment, and the three of them had a pleasant conversation about science.

All three parties benefited greatly.

After exchanging information, Ruan Mei also told Himeko about her idea of having Xing and Tingyun get on the train together. Of course, when talking about Tingyun, Ruan Mei mentioned that she wanted to conceal her appearance and identity.

"Of course, she's only staying on the train temporarily; someone will come to pick her up soon."

After a moment's thought, Himeko agreed.

Regardless of the purpose, as long as it doesn't harm the train, she is naturally willing to do Nguyen Mai a favor.

Tonight, the Alchemy Commission is filled with blood and fire.

Under Phantylia's manipulation, Dankshu reluctantly 'ordered' the people of the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus to begin sabotaging the Alchemy Commission. After carrying out the sabotage, they fled to other places.

The members of the 'Disciples of Sanctus Medicus' had great faith in Dankshu's orders. They believed that under the leader's command, they wouldn't suffer significant losses. Even if there were losses, they would be for the overall benefit of the 'Disciples of Sanctus Medicus of Disciples of Sanctus Medicus'.

However, these people were unaware that Dankshu was now completely unable to control himself, and that these orders were all issued by Phantylia.

Phantylia doesn't care about the life or death of anyone who possesses the 'Disciples of Sanctus Medicus,' or rather, they should all be dead.

After waiting a short while, Phantylia and Dankshu received a report from the person who possessed the 'Disciples of Sanctus Medicus'.

"Reporting to the leader, our people have successfully destroyed more than half of the Alchemy Commission's buildings, and our people have also retreated to other parts of the Xianzhou. Now the Alchemy Commission can no longer carry out any work. Our sabotage work has been very thorough."

Upon hearing this, Dankshu's eyes immediately lit up with anxiety.

Phantylia hadn't given them a plan for evacuation; relying solely on their own efforts to escape would almost certainly result in them being captured. Especially since disrupting the work of the Alchemy Commission would inevitably expose them to a large number of people.

Just thinking about it, Dankshu knew that all the companions she had painstakingly recruited over the years were about to be gone.

But that wasn't all; the people from the 'Disciples of Sanctus Medicus' continued to report.

"By the way, Chief, we encountered that Dragon Lady Girl while we were causing destruction. We tied her up. Chief, what should we do with her?"

Upon hearing this, Dankshu's eyes widened even more.

Destroying buildings is one thing, but if the Dragon Lady is tied up, the Vidyadhara will really go crazy.

However, her body was not under her control. Under Phantylia's command, she spoke, "Good, you did a great job. Here's what I'll do: I'll send someone to fetch her immediately. The Dragon Lady of the Vidyadhara has a very useful status and position for our 'Disciples of Sanctus Medicus'."

Dankshu's expression became even more pained.

"Don't worry, I'm here." Phantylia looked at Dankshu with a smile, "I guarantee that all of you people from the 'Disciples of Sanctus Medicus' will be sent down."

Dankshu lost control of her mouth and asked Phantylia in anguish, "You... just for that man?"

"Of course." Phantylia nodded without hesitation. Then, after she had taken control of Dankshu, she immediately found some clothes to hide herself.

"I'm going to pick up the Dragon Lady first. What if Dragon Lady's still in the hands of the members of 'The Disciples of Sanctus Medicus' and they're surrounded, and they choose to surrender?"

Phantylia left with a smile.

Chapter 91 Fu Xuan: Ji Yuan's divination is faster than mine? [First Update]

"Han, Hanya... Sir..."

Inside a small restaurant in Exalting Sanctum, Hanya scooped up some clear soup from her bowl with a spoon, while Huohuo stood in front of her and answered softly.

"Here, have something to eat first. I called you over here to ask you how it went, since you went to war with Ji Yuan this time."

Hearing Hanya's words, Huohuo took small steps to the chair opposite her, put her hands on the seat and sat down, but not completely. She sat down with only half of her bottom on the chair, while her upper body was upright, looking like a typical timid newcomer.

The Hanya asked Huohuo, "How's your magic training going lately? Witnessing the war firsthand should have helped your mental development."

"That one, the one I've been diligently cultivating."

Huohuo swallowed hard and answered Hanya's question.

Tail chimed in, half-seriously and half-sarcastically, "Yeah, at least when facing thugs, you're not completely defenseless. When you see an enemy, you can still..."

Upon hearing this, Huohuo quickly reached out and held down the tail. Huohuo still felt a little guilty about throwing her tail at the enemy while fighting them.

She could do it, but she was too embarrassed to say it to her seniors and superiors, Hanya.

The Hanya nodded expressionlessly.

She had actually seen the report on Huohuo's trip before coming, and her purpose in asking Huohuo about it was simply to see how she had changed. Now it seemed that although Huo Huo was stronger in combat than before, she was still quite shy when dealing with other matters.

When handling official business, the Ten-Lords Commission not only had to shout for battle, but also had to deal with many other issues. It was impossible for them to be afraid to communicate with people.

It seems that she still has a long way to go.

Even after completing official duties, he still wanted to spend more time with Ji Yuan.

Mentioning Ji Yuan, Hanya continued, "Did you see any Jade Steel Reaver during this time?"

"Jade Steel Reaver?"

When asked by Hanya, Huohuo shook her head in confusion.

"I haven't been carrying out any missions with the Ten-Lords Commission lately, so I definitely haven't seen any of the Jade Steel Reaver. Lady Hanya, is there a problem?"

Huohuo had been by Ji Yuan's side the whole time. If she hadn't seen it, it was unlikely that Ji Yuan would want to hide the Jade Steel Reaver by his side. Ultimately, in Hanya's eyes, Ji Yuan's behavior and background weren't particularly suspicious. If the Jade Steel Reaver so important, she wouldn't have bothered to inquire about Ji Yuan. Now that Huohuo said it was alright, so be it.

The Hanya continued, "By the way, what do you think of your teacher Ji Yuan's skill level, especially regarding magic?"

"The teacher is a genius!"

Huohuo answered without the slightest hesitation.

After answering in this way, Huohuo looked at Hanya and whispered, "Lady Hanya, if you were to give my teacher more of the Ten Ten-Lords Commission's techniques, I feel that he could develop even more."

Her teacher taught her the art of manipulating the Suiyang, a technique he had entirely created himself. If her teacher knew the techniques of the Ten-Lords Commission, would he be able to research even more techniques?

The Hanya silently watched Huohuo.

Huohuo's little face looked very nervous.
