Collapse, survive

Clearly, many unbreakable stereotypes about the nameless stranger had already formed in her young mind.

He even understood why Fang Jie so readily accepted the punishment; it was all because of the sweet reward, just like Kaituo did.

She was also eager to try, and that's how pioneering work is done.

Of course, not this time. This time, let's just watch Fang Jie do it.

She didn't help, and neither did Xiao Sanyue.

Even if I don't help, I can at least keep an eye on things!

This is how pioneering works.

March 7th couldn't stand it anymore.

"Hehe~"

She let out an evil laugh that words could never imitate, and threw trash behind the street that Fang Jie had just swept. It was a kind of Xianzhou snack, vegetarian, with a shell and fruit pulp, and a variety of flavors: salt, caramel, stir-fried...

That’s right, it’s melon seeds.

She wouldn't normally do this; wouldn't that be giving the Star Core Spirit a sweet treat, letting her pick up trash? But this is how she caught Fang Jie.

Following them all the way is truly despicable.

I've really fallen in love with this beautiful girl who's always causing trouble for her teammates.

"Hey~"

Fang Jie doesn't sweep the streets with a broom in such a classical way. The Immortal Ship has automatic cleaning machines, but after the Imperial War, fully autonomous machines are not feasible. There always has to be someone watching over the positions, and this voluntary labor is simply pressing the buttons and watching over them.

The solution was determined to be the sound from the automatic cleaning machine, which then turned and bared its teeth at March 7th...

His arms swept past the head of a rapidly approaching figure, avoiding a full-on collision and preventing any unfortunate incident.

Fang Jie seemed oblivious: "March, stop causing trouble!"

Returning after leaving, Qingque, having already dealt with the Cloud Cavalry, instinctively crouched down with her head in her hands, becoming even shorter, and then her cheeks quickly puffed up in anger.

Fang Jie decided not to act anymore; the more she thought about it, the more something seemed wrong.

"Hey, damn it, I was even planning to fill in for you guys for free and help you settle this... You guys are having a good time, aren't you?"

That wretched nameless guest! The records about Lord Youyuntian are indeed true.

"Come on, why didn't you say anything when the Cloud Cavalry was here? Were you really too shy to speak? No way, no way, no way."

Fang Jie continued his provocation with a grin, having no objection to the Yunqi Army's ruling.

But the bluebird returned...

Did his conscience awaken and he feel pain for bullying children?

"Shy my foot! I'm a grown-up, I'm not shy. You're the little kid, so I'm teaching you a lesson. I understand, you see how small and cute I am, and you feel overjoyed and can't help but want to get close to me."

Qingque shook her head, her expression quite... "My irresistible charm!"

Xing was stunned.

Is that so?

"But 'little friend'."

Qingque, hands on her hips, said, "This is a celestial ship. Don't judge a book by its cover. I'm old enough to be your great-grandmother. Pretending to be familiar with me and taking advantage of me won't work."

"That sounds familiar."

Xiao Sanyue was initially looking forward to Fang Jie's jokes, but Qing Que's words triggered... well, not very good memories for her.

Xing suddenly realized: "It must be when we encounter the White Dew season."

At that time, upon seeing the Dragon Girl in March, who was small, exquisite, and adorable, a ray of light uncontrollably flew out from the top of her head. She then asked, "Where did this child come from? Where is your father?"

Bai Lu's eyes were blank and her expression was childlike as she answered, "I don't have a father."

The background is a group of immortals caught up in the demonic calamity. March 7th immediately felt he had been presumptuous, his conscience ached, and he couldn't help but ask, "What about your mother?"

I need to find out the details before I can take her home; I should lend a hand.

But Bai Lu spread her hands and said, "I don't have a mother either."

This isn't just being presumptuous, it's downright despicable.

Bai Lu then arrogantly lectured her: "Hmph, this is a celestial ship! Don't judge a book by its cover, little sister from the short-lived race! Our Vidyadhara clan is self-sufficient in reincarnation and doesn't need any parents!"

The same is true for the White Dew, and also for the Bluebird.

The former was renowned as the Dragon Girl who carried medicine, and was also a legitimate, licensed physician in the Dan Ding Division!

The latter, uh, is the diviner.

I was previously entrusted by Fu Xuan to receive them.

Reflecting on these events on March 7th, I couldn't help but sigh again: "While the children in Belleburg are still playing in the mud underground, the children here are already skilled at treating patients and working."

Qingque was scolding Fang Jie when she heard this and turned around: "I heard you, I already said I'm not a child."

Otherwise, if you harass underage girls, your sentence will be extended by at least one day.

Even though you are the minors.

hateful!

Qingque, who was arguing with the children, slapped her forehead: "Anyway, I'll do your voluntary work for you. Just remember this lesson, understand? Don't just hug and kiss girls randomly. You're not a child anymore."

The second half of the sentence was explained to Fang, and he didn't seem to lack any sense of maturity.

"Waaah, Qingque, my Qingque, why are you so good to me?"

Fang Jie didn't say anything, but Xing jumped out.

She hadn't even finished enjoying the fun along the way, and was almost ready to join March in spitting out sunflower seed shells. How could she let Qingque settle things so easily? — Watch me.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing? You can't either, you're not allowed to hug me..."

The Star Core Spirit cornered her against the wall, picked her up, and kissed her.

Qingque refused. After she became an 'adult,' even her parents wouldn't be this affectionate anymore, and she didn't have any older or younger brothers or sisters. Gu, don't come any closer.

The child was strong, and Qingque couldn't resist at all.

Resistance is useless; everyone's just joining in the fun on March 7th.

"Bluebird, you're so kind, come here—"

She wasn't particularly affectionate; instead, she raised the Listening Device, which seemed to understand the beautiful girl's thoughts, and brought the adorable little thing with its tongue sticking out closer.

For Qingque, that would be even more terrifying than ten Fangjie and Star Core Essence.

"Wow woof woof~"

"No--!!"

The voice was melodious and pleasant, and it attracted the attention of an anonymous guest.

This is what Danheng saw when he rushed over to see what was going on.

Fang Jie looked innocent and gestured with his eyes:

"See? It's them being naughty again. I'm the golden scapegoat."

The main point is to make a false accusation.

Danheng believed it; it was hard for him not to.

Qingque was furious at being treated this way.

She suddenly raised her head, her face filled with murderous intent, and winked at the laughing, beautiful girls!

She is very cute. If she makes this gesture, her expression is peaceful and smiling, maintaining a serene beauty, while her eyes, or rather her eyebrows...

Up and down, up and down.

Bounce, bounce, bounce.

The shockwaves were deafening...

Xing was the first to suffer, clutching her stomach and barely able to breathe; March 7th followed closely behind, covering her mouth but to no avail, her clear laughter unstoppable, laughing until she was breathless.

Fang Jie is the number one killer of the Immortal Ship.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Qingque, you really are an interesting fellow!

In short, when faced with the 'peerless masters' from the Star Train that they had encountered in their work, the General and the Grand Diviner used the tool they both agreed to use, their new friend Qingque, to take the blame and handle the subsequent unpaid labor.

After all, she was the one in the wrong; who can blame her for being so adorable?

……

……

"You all look like you've had a good rest; it's good that you're all so energetic."

After saying goodbye to Qingque, Danheng looked at the three guys who were causing trouble as soon as they had a good rest, and thought to himself... well, let's just say it was a compliment.

"Of course, I'm very strong."

March made a strong gesture: "Of course, you are stronger."

Despite being beaten by Huanlong, the general was in the worst condition, not physically, but emotionally. He even handed over all his work to Taibu.

"So, Danheng, is there something you need?"

Xing realized that Dan Heng wasn't just there for the fun; the relaxed atmosphere was over, and it was time for a serious moment.

This is a rule of thumb.

Dan Heng nodded: "Let's go to Shence Mansion together first."

The wanderer who was originally unable to return to Luofu has returned. Dan Heng's identity is naturally more sensitive than the others who came uninvited, and this trip is precisely to resolve this matter.

After all, the Star Train needed to hand over the 'General's Permission' and other privileges it had obtained under the pretext of resolving the Star Core issue.

Walter had been waiting for them to meet up, and soon the group headed to Shence Mansion.

The Shence Palace remained busy, and what awaited them was still...

Fu Xuan.

Even the guides were from the Qing generation.

Qingzu, who had been waiting, hurriedly came forward to greet her: "Please wait a moment, everyone. The Grand Diviner will be here shortly. She is temporarily assuming the duties of the general and needs to announce the situation to the public and reassure people before meeting you. This is her first test as general, and I hope she can get used to it soon."

It's as if Jing Yuan has already died suddenly and is now testing his successor.

Knowing that Jing Yuan's injuries might not be as serious as they seemed, or they might be, the Star Train crew didn't say anything and waited silently...

It didn't take long at all before Fu Xuan arrived and took over the conversation.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to get used to it."

"Lord Taibu!"

Fu Xuan walked into the room and looked at the Starry Sky Train crew that had arrived there:

"It's great to see you all here. It's even better if you all look well."

Compared to him, Fu Xuan's complexion... was alright, though he was busy tallying casualties, sending men to hunt down the remnants of the Medicine King's forces, and explaining the battle situation to the Six Emperors...

No wonder Jing Yuan was so badly injured that he couldn't get out of bed.

"Sitting in this chair is like sitting on a mountain of knives."

Fu Xuan revealed an expression similar to... Qing Que's.

Or the opposite.

Someone said innocently, "But you're enjoying it, aren't you?"

Fu Xuan looked at Xing, who had spoken, and said with an air of seriousness, "The position of general is of great importance. How can one talk about enjoying it? One can only say that one is getting used to it, hmph..."

On March 7th, she gave her teammate a furtive look: (I think she was really enjoying it...)

(To be fair, it's true...) Fang Jie winked and made faces, which he learned from Qing Que.

She almost burst out laughing!
