Ji Yuan never entered the Prison of Deep Seclusion.

His current identity is still the Maritime Trade Official of the Sky-Faring Commission and a member of the temporary team of Divination Commission Fu Xuan. Judging from his authority, he does not have the ability to enter the Prison of Deep Seclusion.

Jing Yuan stood at the entrance of the Prison of Deep Seclusion, waiting for them.

He and Ren exchanged a glance, and Ren burst into laughter.

"Alright, leave the rest to me."

Jing Yuan walked up to the crowd and spoke.

"Hmph, at least we're doing something serious."

Fu Xuan muttered something to Jing Yuan in dissatisfaction.

Jing Yuan smiled and pretended not to see it.

Looking at Ji Yuan behind Fu Xuan, he said to Fu Xuan, "Fu Qing, didn't you say you wouldn't trouble Ji Yuan? Why are you using her like this when it's your turn?"

Hearing the hint of pleasure in Jing Yuan's tone, Fu Xuan's face turned pale and then red, before he turned and glared fiercely at Ji Yuan.

"It was all initiated by this guy."

Ji Yuan looked completely innocent.

Blade, watching from the side, immediately urged them, saying:

"Jing Yuan, stop talking nonsense and hurry up and send me to the Prison of Deep Seclusion."

He wants to see Dan Heng more than Jing Yuan.

"Good."

Jing Yuan nodded, then gestured to the jailers to escort the three Stellaron Hunter into the Prison of Deep Seclusion. Kafka obediently followed the jailers into the Prison of Deep Seclusion, but Silver Wolf, leaning against Ji Yuan, was trembling, her eyes vacant, and tears seemed to be streaming from the corners of her eyes.

Jing Yuan looked at the Silver Wolf, which was now only black and white, with great surprise.

Our Xianzhou should not have a tradition of mistreating prisoners, right?

They are usually killed directly.

Will Ji Yuan develop some kind of perverted hobby?

He glanced at Fu Xuan, Fu Xuan spread his hands and said, "Don't worry, he just gave her a mental blow."

Hearing Fu Xuan's answer, Jing Yuan nodded.

He escorted the three Stellaron Hunter into the Prison of Deep Seclusion, and then Jing Yuan signaled Fu Xuan and the others to leave.

At the same time, she didn't forget to give Fu Xuan Ji Yuan a few instructions.

"Tomorrow at noon, I will escort Dan Feng to Scalegorge Waterscape. As for these three Stellaron Hunter, we must interrogate them publicly about the crisis that occurred on the Xianzhou."

As he said this, he gave Ji Yuan a meaningful look.

What exactly are you planning to do? You'll find out by tomorrow.

Ji Yuan instinctively looked away from the general's gaze, but managed to calm himself down.

Jing Yuan knew that he might be plotting something behind the scenes, and Ji Yuan also knew about it.

However, he was also aware that Jing Yuan had no idea how big his operation was.

It wasn't because Jing Yuan lacked wisdom, but simply because Ji Yuan possessed an unfair advantage.

My life has been like walking on thin ice; the only way to survive is by having some kind of cheat code.

Jing Yuan slowly watched Ji Yuan and the others leave, then turned his head to look at the Prison of Deep Seclusion again.

Finally, he shook his head, sighed softly, and prepared to leave.

The decisive battle is imminent.

This is a matter of utmost importance concerning the safety of the Xianzhou; we must be extremely careful.

Prison of Deep Seclusion

Dan Heng's prison was a room without any light or sound, and his hands were tightly bound, making it impossible for him to move.

He has no Remembrance of this in this life, but he spent some time here in his previous life. Currently in prison, he doesn't feel too uncomfortable.

"I just don't know if we'll be able to get back to the Astral Express smoothly."

Dan Heng thought to himself.

Just then, the door to his cell slowly opened, Dan Heng heard another person enter.

Um?

Dan Heng was somewhat puzzled.

Since when Prison of Deep Seclusion prison cells become so scarce that two people need to share a cell?

As he was pondering this, another person entered the prison and slowly spoke.

"Dan Feng, we meet again. This time, can you still choose to run away? Our sins are unforgivable."

It was Yingxing's voice.

Dan Heng's expression changed instantly.

His expression turned into one of speechlessness, helplessness, and resignation.

He struggled desperately, trying to escape. However, the shackles of the Prison of Deep Seclusion were very tight, and he couldn't break free no matter how hard he tried.

At that moment, he felt a gust of wind coming from him; it was Blade trying to get closer.

However, there are also shackles on Ren's side, so he cannot get close to Dan Heng at the moment.

Seeing that he couldn't have physical contact with Dan Heng, Ren simply changed his output method and turned to verbal output.

Foul language and various forms of ridicule kept pouring in.

Dan Heng remained silent, pretending not to hear.

Sit quietly and pretend you're deaf.

On the Astral Express, everyone had just finished dinner.

"I wonder if things are going well on Dan Heng's end?"

While tidying up the table, March 7th asked Xing and Tingyun a question.

"It should go smoothly."

Tingyun comforted March 7th.

"It's alright. If something really goes wrong, we can just quickly jump over there and rescue him. Then we'll see if he can still keep that poker face."

Xing then took out Baseball Bat and waved it around inside the train, saying...

The wild swinging almost hit Pom-Pom, Pom-Pom quickly dodged to the side and shouted at Star, "Passenger Star, if you dare to attack Pom-Pom again, Pom-Pom will use her position as the Conductor to punish you!"

Xing whistled, pretending not to hear.

Just then, the broadcast from the Astral Peace Corporation came on again.

Hearing the broadcast, March 7th leaned back lazily on the sofa, yawned, and said boredly, "I wonder how much valuable news there will be today."

Just as March 7th had predicted, the news reports were long and tedious. March 7th leaned back on the sofa, almost falling asleep.

Until...

"According to information from reporters on the Xianzhou, the mastermind behind this star core explosion, Dan Feng, a wanted criminal on the Xianzhou using the alias Dan Heng, has been apprehended and will be tried on a later date. The Xianzhou has not yet received a specific date for the trial, but we will notify you promptly if there is any further information."

"What!?"

Upon hearing this, March 7th jumped up instantly.

"How could Dan Heng be a bad person?" She turned to look at Himeko: "Himeko, no way, could the Luofu Starfaring Vessel have made a mistake?"

Himeko shook her head slightly and said to March 7th, "We need to consider this matter carefully. At least it is a certainty that Dan Heng was once a wanted criminal on the Xianzhou."

"Well, we can't just arrest him like that."

He murmured to himself on March 7th.

"Himeko, should we drive straight there to rescue Dan Heng?"

"Our train can't easily get to the Luofu Starfaring Vessel directly. Besides, going there to rescue them directly isn't the best approach." Welt Yang advised March 7th to remain calm, "Although the Celestial Ark Alliance isn't the most powerful in the galaxy, it's the most difficult to provoke. They worship the Aeon of the Hunt, and they won't rest until their enemies are dead. If we go and rescue Dan Heng directly, things might become completely irreversible."

After saying that, he also looked at Tingyun.

This mysterious passenger, unsurprisingly, came from the Xianzhou.

Tingyun was also lost in thought at this moment.

She had heard a little about the story of the previous High Elder Dan Feng.

It's true that he's a wanted criminal on the Xianzhou, but it's clear that this Star Core Crisis has nothing to do with him.

So, the fact that General Jing Yuan is making such a big show of going to try Dan Heng suggests that he might be up to something.

"Let's wait until the verdict is out before we talk about anything else. Don't worry, if there's really something wrong, we'll definitely get Dan Heng back."

Himeko then said something as well.

"Um."

March 7th nodded slightly, though with some unease.

Of course, Himeko wouldn't do nothing. After saying that, she sent a message to Ruan Mei through her phone.

She remembered that Ruan Mei said she was going to Xianzhou to find her student, and perhaps she could help her find out some information.

[Himeko: Ms. Ruan Mei, aren't you currently on the Xianzhou? Could you do me a favor? In return, if the train encounters any unusual creatures in its direction of travel, I will send them to you.]

[Nguyen Mai: What?]

Himeko's technological level is actually not much weaker than that of the members of the Genius Society. If she hadn't boarded the Astral Express, Ruan Mei believed that she might have been able to join the Genius Society as well, so she was willing to communicate with her more.

[Himeko: It's like this, Dan Heng, who is about to be tried on the Xianzhou, is a member of our train. If you have time, could you please ask him about the details for me?]

[Nguyen Mai: Oh, that's convenient. I'll go there in person when the trial begins. We can even broadcast it live.]

Himeko: Hmm?

[Nguyen Mai: Smiling. jpg]

Himeko looked at the message with some confusion.

With Nguyen Mai's personality, she wouldn't be the type to join in on something like this, would she?

Nguyen Mai certainly doesn't like to join in the fun, but it would be an exception if the person who started this fun was her student.

She had just put down her phone when Ji Yuan returned home. Seeing Ruan Mei, he threw an arm at her.

"Teacher, this is tonight's dinner. Let's stew it."

Ji Yuan said in a joking tone.

Having left the Prison of Deep Seclusion, Ji Yuan truly had no reason to continue working this time. Fu Xuan simply escorted him all the way to Ji Yuan's doorstep, watched him go inside to rest, and only then did Fu Xuan leave satisfied.

Ji Yuan walked in, saw Ruan Mei, and remembered that he had promised to give his teacher the flesh and blood on his body. He immediately threw the arm that he had previously obtained from him to Ruan Mei.

"Sure, if you like it."

After raising her arm, Nguyen Mai said indifferently.

Ji Yuan quickly waved his hand.

"Never mind, never mind, I'm still a normal person."

He's not Hannibal Lecter; he has no interest in cannibalism. Let's just forget about this.

Ruan Mei smiled.

Ji Yuan then looked at Ruan Mei and immediately asked her about the creatures she was cultivating.
