Starry Sky Railway: Starting with a furious outburst at Aha

“Hmm…yes.” Zhou Yuan nodded.

"Damn it! Why didn't you say so earlier?" Xing turned her head and shouted to the food stall owner outside, "Ten skewers of meat, please... ten skewers each for all the people around me! If others see this, they'll think I can't afford it."

Seeing that the person she was waiting for had arrived, Qingque looked at the other card players:

"Gentlemen, how about we call it a day? I have some things to attend to."

According to the rules, the winner cannot leave the table voluntarily; they can only leave by requesting permission from the loser.

Clearly, the other players were afraid of losing again, and they nodded quickly, fearing that Qingque would come and mess with them again.

"Boss Que, let's get together again another time." With that, the group left the card table one after another.

"Looks like you've made quite a bit of money," Zhou Yuan said with a smile.

“Of course,” Qingque said cheerfully as she walked up to the group. “If you lose everything, you have to show your true skills. You can’t control the outcome of the game.”

As it turns out, Qingque truly lived up to her reputation as the one who recreated the Imperial Jade Token. If Zhou Huan hadn't interfered and won her initial investment, she probably could have played the Imperial Jade Token game for the rest of her life with just 100,000 credits.

"Alright, now that all our distinguished guests have arrived, shall we depart for the Imperial Apothecary?"

"Wait, wait, uh," Xing frantically stuffed the meat skewers into her mouth, "Wait until I... finish eating..."

......

The group chatted and laughed all the way, successfully entering the Taipusi, and Zhou Yuan finally met Kafka, whom he had been longing to see.

She was bound by golden energy ropes, her entire body suspended in the air against gravity, her coat removed, leaving only a white shirt that accentuated her figure.

Zhou Yuan smiled faintly as he took off his hat and handed it to Xing, so that he and Kafka could look each other in the eye.

Unfortunately, Kafka didn't show much of an expression in response.

"I've removed my makeup and contact lenses, and I look much better now," Zhou Yuan thought to himself.

Tai Bu Fu Xuan had been waiting there for a long time. Upon seeing the arrival of everyone, he asked them, as usual, to go and repair the Qiong Guan Formation's foundation.

Zhou Yuan naturally wouldn't go. He followed for a few steps, then made up a reason and returned to the vicinity of the Qiong Guan Grand Formation.

"What are you doing back here?" Fu Xuan frowned slightly when he saw Zhou Yuan return.

This guy's really not even bothering to pretend anymore; he's so desperate to rescue Kafka.

“Lord Fu Xuan,” Zhou Yuan chuckled, took out the script of “The Immortal Ship’s Roots-Seeking Chronicle” from his pocket and waved it, “I want to take this opportunity to read the plot more thoroughly.”

Fu Xuan was also present when Zhou Yuan received Jing Yuan's appointment. After Zhou Yuan said this, she naturally had nothing more to say and could only stand silently aside, wary of Zhou Yuan's unusual behavior.

Zhou Yuan flipped through the script, glancing up every now and then, looking like he was deep in thought, but in reality he was already plotting how to get revenge later.

After half an hour, Qiong Guan observed the great formation being repaired, and everyone gathered together.

Fu Xuan activated the Qiong Guan Grand Formation and began his deductions.

In an instant, the scene was like stars blooming, starlight flowing and piercing through Kafka's body, bringing out strands of strange light, and drilling into the third eye on Fu Xuan's forehead.

"This! You actually did this for something like this!" Fu Xuan saw Kafka's true purpose, his eyes widened suddenly, his hand gestures stopped, and the operation of the Qiong Guan Grand Array ceased.

“I told you so long ago. Now that you’ve seen it with your own eyes, you should believe me.”

Kafka finally spoke, her tone still gentle.

"It's...unbelievable, but observing the formation thoroughly is never wrong..."

"What did you see?"

“Star Core Hunters have nothing to do with Star Cores…” Fu Xuan’s gaze swept over the train crew. “This matter is urgent. I need to report to the General immediately. I cannot accompany you.”

After saying that, she left on her own, leaving everyone bewildered.

“Hey, Diviner, we don’t know anything yet!” said March 7.

Unfortunately, Fu Xuan left so quickly that he didn't hear March 7's voice at all.

“They’ve run away… What do we do now?” March 7th asked.

“Ask her if you want to know something,” Zhou Yuan said, pushing Xing forward a step. “Xing, go ask her. I think you have a lot of questions for her.”

"Ok."

Xing seemed to understand something, nodded to Zhou Yuan, and then walked towards Kafka:

"Mom, Dad and I have come to see you."

When Xing said this, even Kafka was stunned for a moment.

Mom... Dad?

“Xing, I’m not your mother.” She explained gently, her eyes like water.

“I understand, I understand, that’s what Dad said too.” Xing gave Kafka a knowing look.

......

A dozen minutes later, seeing Xing return after asking questions, Zhou Yuan coughed lightly, smoothed out the wrinkles on his body, and took a few steps forward.

"I have some questions for her, could you... please leave for a moment?"

“No problem, let’s go in March!” Xing naturally agreed wholeheartedly and immediately pulled March 7 and Uncle Yang down from the Qiong Guan Formation, leaving Zhou Yuan and Kafka alone up there.

After everyone left, Zhou Yuan's smile became undisguised. He walked a few steps to Kafka and, without saying anything else, asked:

"Where's your gun?"

"Zhou Yuan, what exactly do you want?" Kafka frowned.

"How can this guy be so persistent? Even Silver Wolf can't delete him... I'm afraid only Sam among the Star Core Hunters has the ability to make him disappear..."

“I already said that I would forgive and forget about the past if I avenged that shot. Why don’t you believe me?” Zhou Yuan asked doubtfully. “I’ve been very merciful, haven’t I?”

If a stranger dared to shoot Zhou Yuan, Zhou Yuan would either kill him or cripple him.

"I didn't bring any. What weapons would I bring if I surrendered?" Kafka replied.

"Then I'll just have to figure it out myself," Zhou Yuan snorted, reaching behind his head with his right hand to hold a green light cone between his fingers.

Fear cone.

The light cone pierced through, and Kafka tilted her head in confusion for a moment, then offered a nonchalant comment:

"A good method, suitable for reminding me when I've forgotten the past."

The fear cone had no effect on her as expected.

At this moment, Kafka's escape was not far off. Zhou Yuan was deep in thought when suddenly a flash of inspiration struck him.

"An eye for an eye. Since I'm not injured, just slightly red, why don't I make her red too?"

Thinking of this, Zhou Yuan's lips curled into a smile, and he slapped Kafka's pert buttocks with a force of fifty pounds.

Snapped!

Sure enough, Kafka's face turned red instantly.
