Collapse, survive

That’s too much!

"Honestly, back in Belleburg we were being chased all over the place, not even having a chance to catch our breath. This time on the Immortal Ship, we had plenty of time, but we spent it all chasing each other. What I never expected was that, just when things seemed to be coming to an end, Fang Jie, not only did you not join us in the chase, you actually made us chase after you..."

That’s too much!

"Spare me, ladies."

Fang Jie offered the Immortal's Happy Tea, and everyone reconciled.

"How despicable! They actually tried to bribe me like this! How awful! I couldn't refuse at all."

“You’re so good, I’ll spare your life, but you’ll be spared punishment, though you can’t escape death. One cup of milk tea isn’t enough.”

Xing was extremely wicked, and he even showed off his treasures to him.

"How about it? You haven't seen this little guy before, have you? Isn't he cute? This is the 'Listening' device developed by the Industrial Manufacturing Division based on the five senses of the bionic fox-human. It's incredibly sensitive. Whether it's footprints or scents, as long as you lock onto the characteristics, it can detect the traces left by the target and track them all the way to the end."

"I get it. If I don't keep buying you milk tea, I won't be able to escape, right?"

Fang Jie saw through her malicious intentions.

Damn it, how could such a treasure as Di Ting fall into her hands and become an accomplice?

"And me, Xing can't understand Di Ting's words at all, but I'm different, I can understand everything it says!"

On March 7th, they launched a joint pursuit.

Okay, let's play together.

So the three of them continued their stroll, with Di Ting leading the way.

"Woof woof, woof woof woof~"

Fang Jie really wants to complain: Did you guys even understand what it was saying? Just let it lead the way for us to have fun.

But the pretty girl can understand the puppy's barking.

Teasing cats and dogs is not his intention, but what if this little dog is leading everyone to dig up some buried treasure? What if?

It's a pity that he couldn't hear a single sound from the Di Ting's calls, nor could he understand a single word it said, but it doesn't matter.

Fang Jie, unabashedly embodying the absurdity of a goofball, decisively blended in. Although Xing and San Yueqi weren't there to find him to be silly, they ate and drank heartily the whole way.

And they mocked him.

"Fang Jie, you're so lame! You can't even understand what Di Ting is saying."

"Yes, Sister March 7th, I'm so lame."

"Hey, don't call me that, I'll elbow you!"

"Really? Mingling likes to call people 'big sister,' and you can accept it when she calls you that. She's over 50,000 years old."

"Stop talking about her behind her back, that's going too far."

"It's alright, Ling doesn't mind."

"Sister March, actually I can't understand what Di Ting is saying either..."

"Okay, come here, I'll give you a buff."

"oops……"

The beautiful girl used both words and actions, even more ferocious than the mythical beast, Di Ting.

Xing chuckled and winked, looking quite shrewd.

They continued strolling, and before long, Di Ting actually led them to an acquaintance. They were very familiar with San Yueqi, and Di Ting went up to her and said, "Qing Que, you're playing cards again? Take a break."

The short Qingque froze, then turned around to look.

Behind the two lively, adorable, incredibly powerful, and innocent members of the Youyun Tianjun car crew, an eye was intently watching her card game, its gaze maliciously sweeping over her head...

There are experts too!

Fang Jie's gaze shifted downwards, and only then did he seem to notice the adorable little fish-catcher. His eyes lingered meaningfully on her chest, and a mysterious smile appeared on his face...

He is a promising candidate for cultivation, belonging to the "Fu" generation.

Qingque: "..."

This guy is obviously the kind of idiot that the Grand Diviner dislikes the most. I was even thinking of you as great heroes who saved the Immortal Ship.

Qingque, who never held grudges, cheerfully greeted everyone: "Oh, what rare guests! Instead of taking a proper rest, you're all so diligent. Are you planning to lend a hand again..."

"Shut up!"

The swift and impartial silencing on March 7th prevented Qingque from retaliating.

How could you, you cunning little fish-fisher, harbor such wicked intentions?

Fang Jie revealed an even more mysterious smile, which made Qing Que's heart skip a beat.

.

Chapter 123 What was bound to happen has finally happened.

Fang Jie doesn't like playing cards, but he doesn't mind others playing, especially Qing Que and Qing Zong.

If you want to ask why...

Just as he disliked making Rita suffer, protecting both parents and living a fulfilling life should be the norm in the world.

There's no reason for someone to "feel my pain." I'm living a perfectly good life, and just because you're in pain doesn't mean I have to suffer too...

It's not advisable to force yourself to endure hardship when it's not necessary.

and so.

“Eh~!”

Qingque was shocked.

The person never drinks milk tea with a straw, but instead has a rose in their mouth, resembling a Wendy meme, giving me a captivating, seductive look.

It's as blinding as electric welding.

What are you doing?

"I've finally found you, Qingque. This time, I won't just stand by and watch you..."

Fang Jie's expression was firm and sorrowful, as if he were mourning, as if... he had a story to tell.

No, who are you... Okay, I know you are the nameless guest of Youyun Tianjun, the benefactor who helped the Immortal Ship, but we don't know each other and have never met.

"Um...aren't you...aren't you standing too close?"

It wasn't just close; it practically pushed Qingque off its backside.

The evil immortal from the fairy boat who was playing cards with her was extremely excited. What juicy gossip? What juicy gossip...?

Those who can maintain their normal lives during this time are all somewhat stubborn and have a strong heart; they're excited.

Xing and March 7 were both very excited.

Fang Jie ate the rose, then put his arm around Qing Que's shoulder. Qing Que was small, light, fragrant, and soft, just like Theresa. It was quite fun to tease her.

Especially since she's smart; smart people tend to overthink.

They're so easy to fool!

"ah!"

Qingque was genuinely bewildered by the overly familiar large hands, only to see Fang Jie lower his body, pick her up, and place her on his lap, looking delighted.

"Don't worry, I'll guarantee your safety this time. No matter the cost, I won't let you be in any dire situation."

Thank you, Qingque tried to break free... but failed.

As an ordinary diviner in the Taibu Si (a minor official post), no one could stop her except for her absolute refusal to slack off; she was truly delicate and easily pushed over.

No, everyone, don't just stand by and watch, please help, save them...

She noticed that both March 7th and Xing seemed to be deep in thought.

It was as if Fang was describing some kind of future possibility.

Qingque was familiar with things like predicting the future, but she... no way, I have a future where I'm in dire straits?

Qingque was a little confused. Her first half of life had been extremely smooth. She entered the Taibu Si (a government agency) in accordance with her parents' expectations, only to find that what she thought was a leisurely and secure job was actually a high-intensity workplace nightmare.

After years of experience, Qingque finally honed her skills—regardless of departmental changes, she remained the lowest-ranking diviner.

Life was incredibly leisurely. I would casually flip through books or play ancient card games, living like a harmless and unassuming little sparrow, enjoying a perfectly happy life.

Life is like this, what more can I ask for?

That's how it was until I was targeted by the Grand Diviner; nobody could put pressure on me.

But at this moment, Qingque, who is always passive, never refuses, and irresponsible, has encountered a wicked and malicious pioneer.

With an expression and tone of 'It's for your own good' comparable to that of a parent, he looked at her with immense sorrow, grief, and determination—Qingque, don't die!

On March 7th, her voice trembling with tears, she asked with concern, "Fang Jie, what happened to Qing Que later? You said we were going to confront the Envoy, and the Immortal Ship actually did. You also said... let's not talk about that. What happened to Qing Que? Was she targeted by the terrifying Great Lord of Annihilation?"

I will always remember what happened on March 7th. It was so annoying. We even made a promise to drink milk tea together later and be each other's milk tea buddies.

But he was lying to her from the very beginning; that despicable Huanlong was deceiving the beautiful girl's feelings.

Xing also expressed similar anger: "Qingque, don't be afraid, we will all help you."

Although you've been conscripting us all along and entrusting us with all sorts of difficult tasks, showing you know how to use people well... we absolutely have to help you!

Press the bluebird, which was twisting and turning, trying to break free from Fang's large hand, back into place.

The evil immortal from the celestial boat who was playing cards with him also comforted him: "Qingque, be careful if anything happens. You are also a diviner, just a little incompetent. You can't hide your illness and avoid seeking medical help."

"I……"

Qingque was both amused and exasperated. Who could predict my fate except for the Grand Diviner? You guys... well, you're all just nameless guests of the Wandering Cloud Heavenly Lord. You're incredibly powerful. You even defeated the Great Lord of Annihilation, a formidable enemy that only the Immortal Boat General could face.

So... my future is going to be terrible.

"Qingque, you have been drawn into a disaster called Honkai in the future."

Fang Jie acted as if it were a serious matter, conscripting her into laborers. Unlike the Black Tower, which needed her interest, Qing Que was such an easy conscript, yet she always liked to delegate tasks to Xing.

Conjugate tool!

"It is a disaster that accompanies civilization, unreasonable and difficult for even civilizations that understand the laws of nature to resist."

Qingque was taken aback; it sounded quite serious.

She blinked and asked, "Even the Immortal Ship can't withstand it?"

"The fairy boat is the fairy boat, and you are you."

Fang explained the obvious reasoning, and Qingque couldn't refute it.

No, am I a Xianzhou person? Am I on Xianzhou?

I've decided, I'm not going out anymore.

"You know this law, right? Anything that is possible will happen."

Fang Jie's statement wasn't entirely baseless; he did mention that Qing Que would encounter Honkai or something.

After all, he had already decided to conscript her, so of course Qingque would run into her.

This is the law of solution.

Qingque's expression turned solemn as she thought of a similar law: if something has a probability of happening, then it will happen sooner or later, but when and where is unknown.

The probability of that happening is so small that it hasn't occurred in the hundreds of millions of years since the universe was born.

But as long as there's a chance, it might suddenly happen tomorrow, or a hundred million years from now, either right next to you or in a place you don't know about.

Therefore, 'Honkai' is what allows certain things to happen naturally, even if the probability of them happening on Earth immediately is infinitesimally small. As long as there is a possibility, they can happen.

—Collapse, omnipotent.

Philosophical weapons!

Wait, is this any different from the saying that you'll have a bloody disaster? Qingque has never been superstitious about authority; she dared to outwit and outmaneuver even the Grand Diviner, and now Fang Jie has suddenly appeared before her...

Although the way he looked at me was very familiar, even intimate, and he reached out to me without any hesitation... Why are you hugging me like that? I'm not a pillow.
