章節 91: Chapter 90: Dan Heng: My Heartache! Jingliu Makes an Appearance! Yanqing's Companion Quest Unlocks

In Little Gui's live stream, Guinaifen remained indecisive.

"Should I draw Silver Wolf now?"

"The trial version felt great, but adding her to Jing Yuan's team doesn't seem like a significant upgrade."

"This is clearly meant as post-launch content for Seele..."

"Pity I got Seele instead of Silver Wolf, woe is me~"

Suddenly,

a notification appeared indicating a received email.

Guinaifen opened it:

["Since Feathered Spirit added me to the card pool, naturally, I should collect some appearance fees, right? - Silver Wolf"]

Below it was an electronic doodle of Silver Wolf's expression.

Attached as a bonus were 1,600 gleaming units of Stellar Jade!

Guinaifen hesitated, almost afraid to claim the rewards from this email.

"Is...this really a reward sent by Silver Wolf?"

"The Silver Wolf from Stellaron Hunters is playing this game too?"

As Guinaifen remained uncertain and bewildered,

another new mail arrived suddenly!

[Oh, and here's something else. After claiming it, use these to aggressively summon Silver Wolf—you're guaranteed to win!]

"These are...ten fuel tubes?!?" Guinaifen pinched herself incredulously, ensuring that what she saw wasn't just her imagination.

"Woah! This is insane!"

"But wait, won't Feathered Spirit ban my account if I accept these?"

The thought of her account potentially being banned left Guinaifen hesitant to proceed.

At that moment,

a third email arrived!

This time, the sender was...Feathered Spirit!

[Announcement: Due to instability following the update, hackers exploited vulnerabilities and sent abnormal messages to all players.]

[Currently, the abnormal messages have been resolved. Feathered Spirit sincerely apologizes to all users for this inconvenience.]

[Items distributed by the hacker will not be reclaimed but instead serve as compensation for the issue. Players can safely claim them without concern.]

Upon reading the content of the email, Guinaifen was utterly astounded!

"It really was Silver Wolf who sent these!"

"Feathered Spirit handled it gracefully, treating the erroneous messages as bonuses for us!"

"Thank you, Silver Wolf! Thank you, Feathered Spirit master!"

With no further concerns, she promptly claimed both rewards.

These ten fuel refills were like a refreshing rain after a long drought for all current players—stamina had been desperately scarce!

Materials for ascending characters, Light Cones, and footprints were being used with extreme frugality.

Moreover, new characters had just been introduced!

The stream viewers also expressed their profound sentiments!

"I can't believe playing this game lets us witness the intense rivalry between Stellaron Hunter Silver Wolf and Feathered Spirit—it's fucking exhilarating!"

"These ten fuel tubes are like coal delivered amidst a blizzard for me. You have no idea how agonizing it was to draw Silver Wolf without having enough stamina to train him!"

"Initially, I was just observing, but now, words fail me—let's go all in!"

"Oh man, I absolutely adore you, Silver Wolf! Keep finding loopholes next time, giving each of us 1600 tickets!"

"Everyone, relentlessly summon Silver Wolf! The top player said it guarantees wins!"

Just after the update went live, this frenzy unfolded before their eyes.

Guinaifen could already sense it—this new content would undoubtedly unleash another storm of intense drama and upheaval!

"The new map is open! Let's hurry up and advance through the main storyline!"

[Trailblazing Quest: Golden Cauldron Spirit Tree, Ominous Taowu now available.]

[However, before catching up with the Astral Express Crew, other events seem to be unfolding...]

[It is recommended to complete the Companion Quest: Frostblade First Test first.]

"Isn't this Yanqing's companion quest?"

"I guess he'll have more involvement in the upcoming plot!"

"Let's see how our Cloud Knight Lieutenant shines in this story."

In the Scalegorge Waterscape, Jing Yuan and Dan Heng stood on the deck, gazing out at the distant sea.

"[Ancient Moonlit Sea, Marvelous Enchanted Realm]," Jing Yuan remarked with awe. "The scenery of Scalegorge Waterscape remains unchanged since our last visit."

"Yet now, standing here together, we ourselves have become different," Dan Heng pointed out.

"General, you should be aware of the Dharani's nature regarding samsara and rebirth," he continued. "The person who once stood beside you is no more. I am Dan Heng. Whether that Imbibitor Lunae was a hero or a sinner holds no relevance to me."

Jing Yuan shook his head. "And so what? If merely uttering a few words could alter others' perceptions, there would be far fewer conflicts in this world."

Dan Heng sighed softly.

For a brief moment, he genuinely felt deeply wronged!

From his perspective:

Upon birth, he had been imprisoned, subjected daily to torture by restraints.

Later, although finally exiled from the Xianzhou,

he found himself relentlessly pursued by a lunatic every day!

This madman constantly muttered gibberish about five individuals and being one among them—it made no sense!

Moreover, Dan Heng couldn't be killed outright, yet even the ships he traveled on were destroyed by that crazed pursuer!

Who could endure such torment?!

Returning to Xianzhou Luofu this time aimed to resolve the situation once and for all. So far, it seemed progress was promising.

Despite their previous battle, here they were now, both aboard the same ship without any further conflict. To Dan Heng, this seemed utterly inconceivable just moments ago.

Indeed, sometimes confronting difficulties head-on reveals that problems once deemed insurmountable may not be as terrifying as initially imagined.

As these thoughts swirled through his mind, another figure ascended onto the deck—it was the woman named Jingliu.

Back at The Shackling Prison, although Blade indiscriminately attacked everyone, Jingliu had drawn her weapon. Strangely, she never retaliated, but for reasons unknown to him. Nevertheless, Dan Heng could sense something deeply unsettling about her aura, akin to molten lava hidden beneath an iceberg. If provoked beyond a certain threshold, it promised a catastrophic eruption!

Fortunately, she had draped herself with the black veil again, seemingly imposing additional restraint upon herself.

"Yinyue..." Dan Heng felt the gaze from behind the veil directed towards him.

"I'm not..."

"..."

"The scales and your cold, indifferent demeanor closely resemble that of the one from years past."

Dan Heng fell silent, gazing down at the sea beneath him.

An irresistible urge to leap into the water surged within him.

Noticing Dan Heng's despondent demeanor, Jingliu let out a dissatisfied cold snort, her killing intent inadvertently intensifying.

"Master..." From behind, Jing Yuan's voice steadied her aura.

For the first time, worry appeared on his face. Regardless of how situations unfolded before, he always maintained an air of confidence. Only when facing his master did such concern surface.

"Your Mara-Struck form..."

"I conceal my eyes with this black veil and use the strongest emotion, hatred, to maintain my consciousness. For now, there's no immediate risk of losing control."

Hearing Jingliu's explanation, Jing Yuan's expression grew even more concerned.

It seemed she was suppressing the Mara-Struck form with an even greater force—a ticking time bomb waiting to explode. Should it ever fully detonate, wouldn't it bring ruin to Luofu itself?

As if sensing Jing Yuan's unease, Jingliu smiled softly and changed the subject. "Jing Yuan, I heard your disciple, Yanqing, also aspires to become Luofu's 'sword leader'?"

"Do you teach him much like how I taught you back then?"

"His posture rivals mine from those days, though understandably, his youth still fuels some impetuosity..."

At that moment, Dan Heng interjected, "Both of you, please take a look at this."

"What is it?" Jingliu furrowed her brow slightly, tilting her head.

She heard a familiar voice.

"It's a new storyline introduced after the game update, featuring Yanqing's companion quest. In this quest, your presence emerges."

Jingliu was momentarily taken aback before a smile appeared on her face. "Fascinating."


章節 92: Chapter 91: Yanqing's Reputation Takes a Hit - Master Ancestor? No, That's Big Sister!

In Little Gui's stream:

"Yanqing is truly brave!"

"With Blade fleeing alongside Kafka, he dares to chase them down all by himself?"

"Can only say, as expected of the Cloud Knight Lieutenant!"

On the Cloudford map,

the perspective had shifted to follow Yanqing's pursuit mission.

The current map differed significantly from before.

The ground was littered with fallen Mara-Struck beings!

This was Guinaifen's first encounter with a scenario where the monsters had already been slain before their arrival.

She promptly moved forward to investigate.

"These wounds weren't inflicted by the Cloud Knights."

"Since the prey has left traces, it should be straightforward now."

Following the trail marked by scattered corpses, they quickly arrived at an open area ahead. There, they saw a woman surrounded and besieged by Mara-Struck entities.

Yanqing immediately exclaimed, "Why is there still a trapped civilian here? The local Cloud Knights seem quite inefficient."

"Hey, don't panic, I'm coming to rescue you!"

As the camera angle closed in closer,

and once Guinaifen could discern the woman's appearance,

her head buzzed with shock.

"Ah?! That isn't..."

"It's... Jingliu!!"

In the past, few might have recognized this name.

However, since the release of the "Flying Light" trailer,

combined with the revelations from the [Forbidden] player,

now every gamer knew well who she was.

This individual was none other than Luofu's former sword leader and Jing Yuan's master!

Players anticipated her appearance later in the storyline!

But no one expected

such an early debut—

and within Yanqing's quest, no less!

"He's really here!"

"Jingliu is indeed alive? And he's returned to Xianzhou?"

"Don't get any closer, Yan Bao! This person is even more dangerous than Blade!"

"This isn't just any civilian! It's your master's master!"

"Jingliu: You're right, but it's they who are surrounded."

"Yanqing hit the jackpot!"

Guinaifen's nerves instantly spiked.

As confirmed by Flying Light, Jingliu had fallen to Mara and become possessed by its dark influence! Even the Ten-Lords Commission had declared her dead!

Later, during a fierce battle, she was defeated by Jing Yuan as the Divine Monarch and subsequently vanished without a trace.

Now, she unexpectedly reappeared on Xianzhou Luofu.

Who knew if she still retained any humanity?!

Or whether she could even be considered alive anymore?!

Before engaging in combat, Guinaifen hastily consumed several consumables to boost their fighting prowess and survival chances.

Fortunately,

upon entering the fray, they found themselves battling three Mara-Struck beings rather than directly confronting Jingliu.

Otherwise, Guinaifen feared—

Yanqing might not make it!

***

[Battle Concluded]

Jingliu spoke, "Many thanks for your assistance, little brother."

"Oh, it's my duty," Yanqing replied. "With Luofu's ports sealed, how did you end up here alone?"

"I arrived on a merchant ship," Jingliu answered mildly. "Recently, memories of old friends have been swirling through my mind. I wanted to meet them again, reminiscing about our past times... Who would've anticipated such peril at Luofu now?"

Yanqing displayed a sympathetic expression. "Indeed, unfortunate timing. There has been an unexpected incident with the Xianzhou. However, the General will resolve it soon enough."

"Let's go; you can't stay here. We need to head to the nearest cloud rider garrison."

"What a normal conversation! If I hadn't read 'Flying Light,' I might have almost believed it!"

"Jingliu sounds quite convincing here, doesn't she? Aside from her voice being somewhat cold and faint, there's little to distinguish it from that of a regular person."

"Could it be that during those missing centuries, she found a cure for Mara-Strike? Is this return meant as service to Xianzhou?"

"The commenter above, you seem even more naive than Yanqing."

Guinaifen was equally intrigued.

What exactly had happened to Jingliu? And why had she returned now?

As they continued watching:

Yanqing asked, "Oh right, have you seen a man with long hair and dressed in black—"

His voice trailed off as he noticed the dark veil covering the eyes of the person before him. Instantly, guilt flashed across his face.

"You...you can't see, can you? I'm sorry, I assumed..."

"I am Yanqing, officially enlisted in the Cloud Knights. May I ask for your name, Big Sister?"

"My name is Jingliu," she replied.

"Jingliu-jiejie, let me guide you first. We might need to take a detour, but I promise to safely deliver you to the Cloud Knights."

"Yanqing is such a well-mannered child!"

"Yes, except for his bad luck, he's quite impressive."

"This is the best episode yet!"

"If Yanqing calls Jingliu 'Big Sister,' does that make him and Jing Yuan peers?"

"At least she's a thousand-year-old sister."

"She's practically your great-grandmother, mate!"

Meanwhile, aboard the ship sailing through Scalegorge Waterscape:

Jing Yuan, Jingliu, and Dan Heng witnessed this scene from the deck.

For a moment, they all fell silent.

They weren't particularly concerned about the confusion of familial hierarchy... After all, for eternal life beings, such situations were commonplace.

Take, for instance, young Jing Yuan who used to trail behind Jingliu, calling out "Big Sister, Big Sister" or "Master, Master." In due time, he became one of the High-Cloud Quintet, standing on equal footing with Jingliu, Yinyue, and others as brothers.

What they found more significant was the encounter between individuals from different eras.

Yanqing possessed the pride typical of youth, while Jingliu harbored her hidden Mara-Struck nature. Unaware of each other's circumstances, their interaction could potentially provoke unintended consequences, leading to a disastrous outcome!

Softly, Jingliu mused, "If following the normal course of events, would I have ever met this little brother?"

"Heh, let's hope fortune smiles upon him," Jing Yuan chuckled, placing a hand lightly on his forehead.

Jing Yuan gently pressed his hand to his forehead, silently sighing, "Yanqing, all I can do is wish you good luck."

"A youth's sword, too rigid, risks breaking..."

"As long as he perseveres..."

"Perhaps this journey with her might prove beneficial for him after all."

In another cabin on the ship,

the Astral Express Crew and Stellaron Hunter team were also watching the live stream.

However, Silver Wolf's usual spot had been taken by Yanqing.

Silver Wolf was off to tackle the Forgotten Hall, aiming to be the first player in the game to complete it within the allotted time.

As for Yanqing,

upon hearing about his partnered mission, he rushed over in shock to watch alongside them.

Seeing that he would encounter Jingliu, his brows instantly furrowed.

"This..."

"What a coincidence, isn't it?"

"Although she's the General's master, with her afflicted by Mara and wearing that black veil..."

"I-I should be able to subdue her, right?" His confidence waned as he spoke.

Beside him, March 7th couldn't resist teasing, "Aiya, why are you less assertive than your game counterpart?"

"In the game, you even dared to escort her!"

"And oh, calling her 'Big Sister'...!"

"Pfft—"

"My apologies!"

"I just couldn't hold back."

Yanqing had no mood for bantering with March 7th. Seeing his past self, brimming with confidence and addressing her as "Big Sister," left him utterly embarrassed, face flushed red and forehead drenched in sweat.

The General must have seen it too.

Jingliu definitely saw it.

Everyone saw it!

How would he ever face Luofu after this?!

"Please! Game Yanqing, I beg you!"

"Do something productive!"

"Don't tarnish the reputation of the Cloud Knight Lieutenants!"
