Star Iron: The Past and Present Life of the Gender-Swapped Dragon Lord

Chapter 71 Jingyuan, Jingliu: Can't Carry It

"Hurry up! Hurry up! Why aren't you attacking yet!"

On the other side of the alley, three furtive figures kept glancing this way, their voices urgent.

They are Jingyuan, who is frowning and silent; Jingliu, who has a calm expression but purses his lips; and the little fox who is lying on Jingliu's head, baring its teeth in anxiety.

The three watched as Ying Xing's tall figure chased after him, causing a commotion.

"What should we do? Should we chase after them?" Jingliu's expression was not much, but his tone carried a hint of excitement.

“That’s not a good idea. The streets outside are quite empty; we might get spotted,” Jing Yuan analyzed calmly.

"Hehe~ I have a plan!"

Jingyuan, Jingliu: !

"Bai Heng, do you have any ideas?"

Bai Heng, who could only temporarily transform into a little fox outside, nodded his little head in a pretentious manner, his fluffy tail swaying behind Jing Liu's head.

"Now that I'm part of Sister Danheng, of course I have a way to let you see Sister Danheng's first-person perspective."

Bai Heng triumphantly flicked its tail, slapping it hard across Jing Yuan's face, who was squatting nearby.

Jing Yuan took Bai Heng's big tail off and urged him quickly.

"That's great, come on over."

Bai Heng stopped dawdling and with a wave of its little paw, a pale blue light screen appeared in front of the two people and the fox.

The screen is completely black when you open it.

Jingyuan and Jingliu were taken aback. Jingliu patted the little fox's head on his head.

"What's going on? Why is it black?"

"Uh, this is from a first-person perspective, maybe because Sister Danheng is almost asleep now?"

Upon hearing the answer, Jingliu fell silent.

Then what's the point of looking at this?

"Ahem, don't rush... let me do it."

As Bai Heng finished speaking, the blue screen flickered, and after the static screen cleared up, the image gradually became clear.

Third-person perspective adjusted!

The two people and the fox exchanged a glance, rubbed their hands together, and excitedly watched the live broadcast.

In the scene, Ying Xing, with white hair and purple eyes, is seen supporting the unconscious Dan Heng as they slowly walk down the street.

The three of them watched the screen with anticipation, not daring to relax for a moment.

One step, two steps, three steps...

The three people's expressions gradually changed from (v^_^)v to ?_?, as they watched the two walk step by step toward the hotel.

"What about the movements? The process? The sound? The details?"

Bai Heng couldn't hold back any longer and roared out, her fox tail almost whipping around like a propeller, showing how anxious she was.

"He really does... have Yingxing's characteristics."

Jing Yuan's lips twitched, and after a long pause, he sighed, "Fate is cruel."

It's not like your buddy helped you create the perfect timing and location, but the right person just just wouldn't show up.

Jing Yuan sighed with his head down. Jing Liu, standing beside him, had already gripped the Tan Hua Sword tightly in his hand, and a chilling aura permeated the alley.

"Wait! Masaka!"

Suddenly, Bai Heng got excited and grabbed Jing Liu's long hair on his forehead with both hands, causing Jing Liu's mouth to twitch.

The situation is urgent, we need to find the traitor... no, look at the screen!

Suddenly, Danheng in the video swayed and fell towards Yingxing.

!

Jingyuan, Baiheng, Jingliu: A great opportunity!

Danheng fell heavily into Yingxing's arms, which excited the three of them greatly.

Yes, yes, yes! That's exactly how it is!

Ying Xing's body visibly stiffened for a moment in the video, then, under the wide eyes of the three people, he slowly reached his hand inside.

Inside Danheng's clothes!

!

Okay, okay, I never expected you to be like this, Brother Yingxing.

Indeed, even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman.

Jingyuan stood up excitedly and clapped, but was immediately silenced by a glare from Jingliu.

They excitedly squatted down to continue watching, and the three of them were already ready to pop the champagne.

Seeing Yingxing fiddling with Danheng's clothes, Baiheng's fox-like face flushed red.

"Wow, so unrestrained? They're still on the street."

"Playing such fancy tricks? I didn't see that coming from Brother Yingxing, tsk tsk tsk..."

The two spoke one after the other with a mocking expression, but Jingliu remained silent. However, the slight flush on his cool face revealed the unease in his heart.

"Wait a minute, has Sister Danfeng regained her memory yet?"

"Uh...it seems not yet."

"?"

Jing Yuan's eyes widened instantly.

"That's not right. According to what you're saying, shouldn't they have remembered this already?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Heng scratched his head awkwardly.

"This... I don't know either. Logically speaking, I should have remembered everything by now."

"Doesn't that mean Sister Danfeng doesn't know Brother Yingxing yet?"

"...You're right, but in this situation, only love can explain it."

"?"

Jing Yuan felt a little numb; something was wrong.

In fact, Bai Heng found Dan Heng the moment he boarded the immortal ship. After a friendly reunion, Bai Heng told Jing Yuan about the plan, saying that he wanted to bring together a couple from hundreds of years ago.

Jing Yuan was initially hesitant, but after hearing Bai Heng pat his tail and assure him that he would make Dan Heng remember everything before the plan was finalized, Jing Yuan felt relieved.

but now……

"Hey, let me finish speaking first."

Bai Heng jumped onto Jing Yuan's head and patted the distorted face below with its paw.

"Why don't we come up with a way to stimulate him like this? Maybe he'll remember it."

"But isn't Sister Danfeng already drunk?"

"...You're right, but Genshin Impact is a..."

Silence fell again, and finally Jing Yuan sighed softly.

Well, let's just take it one step at a time.

Jing Yuan turned his gaze to the screen and breathed a sigh of relief.

Should we be happy or disappointed?

Because in the scene, his beloved Yingxing brother fiddled with something for a while and took out that extremely familiar hairpin from Danheng's personal clothing, then stared at it for a long time with a look of reminiscence.

Under the watchful eyes of Jing Yuan, whose pie chart contained an unknown amount of information, Ying Xing helped Dan Heng to sit down on a bench by the roadside.

After gently arranging Danheng's body so that she could lean against him, he took a hairpin and began to tie up Danheng's hair, who was unconscious.

Mirror Flow: ...

"Gone?"

Jing Liu rarely spoke, because she saw Ying Xing skillfully give Dan Heng a beautiful hairstyle and then nodded in satisfaction.

He then gently carried the sleeping girl in his arms and walked towards the hotel.

The scene ends with Yingxing placing Danheng on the bed and covering him with a blanket.

Only three people remained staring at each other in front of the screen.

"It's over? Yingxing just did nothing and still managed to tie Danheng's hair?"

Bai Heng was so angry he almost fainted. He lay on the ground and started rolling around, trying to vent his frustration by cleaning the floor.

Looking at the howling fox on the ground, Jingliu sighed, and the sword in his hand appeared again after being sheathed.

Finally, the group returned to the courtyard where they had previously had a meal together, waiting for the appearance of one of the main characters.

A cold wind blew, and footsteps echoed from the front door.

Ying Xing, with purple eyes and white hair, pushed open the door and returned, only to be greeted by three sour faces.

"Can't carry it."

"No doubt about it."

"The Poet's Grip."

Yingxing: ...

"Why are you doing nothing! You can't accomplish anything like this!"

Bai Heng, squatting on the table, whined at Ying Xing with a sullen little face, but Ying Xing just shook his head.

"I can sense that the time is not yet right."

"She still doesn't recognize me."

This left Jingyuan and Baiheng speechless—such a keen intuition, no wonder it's the CP I support.

"You really are the same as you were years ago..."

Ying Xing smiled and shook his head, taking a sip of the warm wine on the table.

It was clearly prepared specifically for him by the group.

As for the few people who knew what he had gone out to do, Ying Xing didn't ask them any more questions.

It was like this hundreds of years ago, and it is still like this today.

"I'm leaving. I'll find my own way to make her remember."

After Ying Xing finished speaking, her aura changed drastically. Her originally gentle purple eyes transformed into unique black hair and scarlet eyes after she tapped a pixelated watch on her wrist.

"Today's 'Yingxing' is dead; all that remains is 'Ren'."

Yingxing, or rather, Ren, walked out of the gate of Jingyuan's courtyard, leaving the three of them to drink tea in silence.

"This is...at least it's better than the original situation, isn't it?"

He took a sip of warm wine, the warmth flowing down his throat to his stomach. Jingliu felt these two completely different emotions in his heart, looked at the wine glass, and sighed.

"...She saved us once again."
