Star Railway: The Pioneer's Journey

Chapter 327 A Subtle Show-Off

After chatting with Yu Kong for a while, Yu Kong also had to go and attend to his work at the Tianbo Bureau.

Feixiao bid her farewell and watched her leave the cave in Jinren Lane.

She did not leave.

Yunzhi felt a very strong gaze behind him.

Feixiao remained silent, only staring intently at him.

Yun sighed.

"Please sit down."

Without turning his head, he simply pointed to another seat in front of him.

Fei Xiao smiled and walked over with light steps, then sat down.

She lowered her voice: "True Lord, you really haven't left Luofu."

Yun Zhisai gave her a Dream Eater Scroll: "I always have this feeling that everyone can recognize me. Although I haven't tried to hide it, it's not like those Bu Li people can tell right away."

Feixiao wasn't shy at all, and took a bite of the Dream Eater Roll:

"No, actually I didn't recognize him just now. I just thought the person next to me looked unfamiliar, so I took a second look."

Oh, so you mean I exposed it myself?

Did you take a second look?

The presence of that gaze was so strong; it seemed to be more than just "taking a second look."

Never mind, that's not important.

"What are your thoughts on what happened in Luofu a few days ago?"

What Sand Gold said was ultimately insufficient; it would be better to hear directly from the general about what was coming.

Fei Xiao sighed: "The True Lord also heard it just now. The alliance's higher-ups have many concerns about this, as do the Dragon Masters of Luofu..."

Perhaps recalling the misdeeds Luo Fu Chi Ming had committed a few days ago, Fei Xiao didn't know how he managed to utter that shameless remark: "They said Luo Fu's actions some time ago disregarded alliances..."

Yunzhi: ...

Do these bastards think I'm some Schrödinger's Lord, that I can just flash into the League and then ignore everything?

Yun took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.

"Do you know, Tianji? Last time, out of respect for the Marshal, I didn't insist on driving away the Chiming Clan, which has directly led to me having to ask myself three questions every day."

Feixiao: "Huh?"

The fox-woman tilted her head in confusion.

Yun smiled insincerely: "Every day I have to ask myself—am I being too polite? Am I being too agreeable? Am I giving those people too much face?"

Feixiao gave an awkward laugh.

The dragon lords are quite good, and she also has a good relationship with Tianfeng Jun. Last time, because of this relationship, she pleaded for Chiming.

Now Luo Fulong has stirred up this mess again... Although it's just a letter, the marshal just treats it as a joke.

"Tianji, don't blame me for being blunt, but the current development of the Immortal Ship Alliance is indeed the result of the concerted efforts of the Celestials, Fox-people, and Vidyadharas. However, I think you still need to understand one thing—"

Yun Zhi's expression suddenly became blank, but he didn't reveal the slightest murderous intent.

"Back then, the starship sailed through the boundless universe, with only celestial beings, no fox spirits or Vidyadharas, no star gods to protect them, and they hadn't even seen the Medicine Master yet—and they still made it through."

"Don't tell me that the Celestial Ship, which survived the vast and lonely voyage, is going to sink now that it's missing Chiming. I'm not dead yet, and it's not up to a bunch of shameless people to decide the fate of the alliance."

Feixiao was startled by Yunzhi's expression, and his body tensed up, but fortunately he did not lose his composure.

Suddenly, Yunzhi's expression changed, as if the bloodthirsty look from before had never existed.

Why should I tell you all this?

He chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Let's not talk about them anymore. We'll talk about them when I see Lord Huyuan again... By the way, is the prison I used to be in still there?"

Feixiao: Why aren't you playing by the rules?

Why would someone specifically ask if the place where they were once imprisoned still exists?

"exist."

Feixiao's answers were all somewhat difficult:

"Although many years have passed, that place... is well preserved... We didn't deliberately maintain it, really."

No one would protect a place like that.

No matter what, that was probably the worst part of my boss's past.

But if we demolish it... we feel it would damage the cultural relics.

Fei Xiao said that the person in charge of Yao Qing's ancient prison was also quite sad. Every day, looking at that dark cave, he didn't know if he would be silenced.

"If you mind, we can..."

tear it down.

Feixiao hadn't finished speaking, but Yunzhi already knew what she was going to say.

He waved his hand: "No need, keep it. I can go back and reminisce about the past when I have time."

Unpleasant memories are not necessarily a bad thing; reflecting on past hardships and appreciating present happiness is also for the purpose of looking forward to a better future.

"Alright, that's enough. I'm going back now. I've been here too long, and my husband might go hungry."

Yunzhi waved casually, picked up the bag of snacks, and left.

Feixiao: ? ? ?

She stared wide-eyed and mechanically took a bite of the unfinished Baku roll.

A sudden flash of inspiration struck her, as if some strange memory had gone through a long, drawn-out process in her mind.

Finally, it stopped at the jubilation of the people of Xianzhou after the news about Pinocchio came out some time ago.

Feixiao: o(＊＾▽＾＊)o♪

Wow! I saw it for real!

Come to think of it, this Dream Eater Scroll isn't that big.

How come I'm full?
