Chapter 191 Sichen Palace
Chapter 191 Sichen Palace
While Eve and March 7 were playing around, Xing's phone suddenly rang.
"Everyone, Tingyun has finished his announcement and invited us over."
Xing held up her phone and addressed the crowd.
"Huh? Xing, when did you add her as a friend?" March 7 asked in shock.
“Just now, on the Star Chariot.” Xing scrolled through her phone and swiped out a QR code. “When she scanned my QR code, she even complimented my profile picture as cool.” The screen displayed a photo she had secretly taken of General Jingyuan drooling in his sleep.
"No, didn't you just say she had a problem?"
“But she calls me her benefactor.” Xing raised a smug smile, her eyes sparkling, and she stood tall with her hands on her hips.
"Damn it, I knew this guy was unreliable." March 7 shook his head helplessly.
“Let’s go, we’re almost ready.” Walter Young raised his eyes slightly.
As the patriarch, he has made preparations to deal with the situation.
............
Sichen Palace.
"Oh? I didn't expect you benefactors to arrive so early. I thought you would be strolling around the market." Tingyun stood at the door, somewhat surprised to see Xing and the others.
"It's all because you moved too fast. How could we have time to shop around?" March 7th pouted.
"Oh dear, I was just worried that you all would be waiting too long~" Tingyun blinked her bright eyes, a playful smile on her lips, and tilted her head slightly to one side.
"You may enter now. Lord Yu Kong awaits you in the Si Chen Palace."
She bowed slightly, making a gesture of invitation.
"Aren't you coming?" Xing asked doubtfully.
"I have already reported everyone's situation to Lord Si, so I won't go in~" Tingyun said in a light and cheerful tone, her eyes narrowed.
"Thank you for your hard work, Miss Tingyun." Walter Yang nodded slightly.
The group entered the gates of the Sichen Palace, traversed the corridors, and finally arrived at the command center of the inner hub.
"Report the damage figures to General Jingyuan, and summon the officials from the Imperial Apostles. With such a massive disturbance, how can they remain uninvolved..."
A fox-woman with blue hair was giving instructions; she was the helmsman.
When she saw Walter Young and the others approaching, she raised her head, looking calm and composed, as if she had been prepared all along.
"Hello, passengers of the 'Starry Sky Train'."
“Tingyun has already informed me of your purpose in coming. My duties do not include receiving travelers.”
"But since you know about the Star Core and have stated your intention to help 'Luofu,' then both morally and logically, I must give you a face-to-face opportunity to decline your offer."
Walter Young frowned slightly, but the frown disappeared quickly.
Xing couldn't help but ask, "Why!"
"Yes? Why?" March 7th was also very puzzled.
"It's just a mere star core. The Alliance has long been aware of it and has its own ways of dealing with it. The Immortal Ship has been sailing for eight thousand years and is used to crises and annihilation. Although the current disaster is fierce, the Immortal Ship has the capacity to handle it on its own and does not need to rely on outsiders to quell the calamity." Yu Kong's expression was very confident.
"You are all guests from afar, and there is absolutely no reason for you to get involved in this matter—do you understand what I mean?"
“This…” March 7th was speechless.
That certainly seems to be the case...
Walter Young paused for a moment, then spoke:
"Judging from the current situation, the influence of the star core has not yet fully penetrated."
"If we can find the location in time and contain it, both the eroded space and the infected people have a chance to recover."
“We have prevented the disaster of the Star Core before, especially this one, who has a great suppressive power over the Star Core. We are here this time only to lend you all a helping hand.”
Walter Young stepped aside, revealing the little girl Eve's figure.
"A child?" Yu Kong frowned.
"Um... I guess so." March 7th thought for a moment. "Especially when it comes to food."
Little Eve, with her short legs, secretly kicked March 7.
"No need. I have already made it very clear: this is an internal matter of the Immortal Ship Alliance, and the Starry Sky Train has no reason to interfere. To show respect, I have specially met with you all to convey the final decision, which is not to be changed."
“But—” Walter Young wanted to hold on a little longer.
But then March 7th waved his hand and said, "Forget it, Uncle Yang. Since the Immortal Boat Alliance says they can handle it, why should we bother? Let's just go."
"I was just thinking of visiting Luofu Mountain. I promised to buy some local specialties for the train conductor last time."
Walter Young pondered for a moment, and was about to nod, but then Yu Kong's expression suddenly turned serious.
"No, you cannot leave."
"Hey, that's going a bit too far!" March 7th said angrily.
“Ms. Yu Kong, the Star Train has always been free to come and go, and we came here because we were worried about the Immortal Boat Alliance. Isn’t your behavior a bit impolite?” Walter Yang was also a little angry.
"Hmph, the star core was discovered on Luofu only a few days ago, and the Star Chariot Sea has been completely sealed off, with no one leaving—how could you all be so prescient, and how could you be so certain that all of this is related to the star core?" Yu Kong sneered.
"We retrieved the entry and exit records of the Star Chariot Sea. Not long ago, someone hacked into the system, opened the Jade Gate, and guided a ship into port. That was you: the Starry Sky Train."
"The hacker was very clever; he even left a mark on the system, as if to provoke us."
"And the owner of this stamp is 'Silver Wolf,' a member of the Star Core Hunters."
"What is your explanation for this?"
Yu Kong's words are all gems, and his language is very concise.
At the same time, she also pulled up the system records, where the arrival record of the Starry Sky Train was very clear.
"this......"
Under the continuous attacks from the air, Walter Yang frowned slightly.
As expected, the people from the Immortal Ship are not easy to deal with.
These immortal beings, who have lived for hundreds or thousands of years, have a wealth of experience and knowledge.
"It's a Star Core Hunter..."
In her haste, Xing was about to speak when she was immediately stopped by the little girl Eve.
"Skymaster, how can you be so sure that we are related to the Star Core Hunters? This evidence alone is not enough."
