Chapter 993

He bore such a heavy responsibility, yet the result was a complete mess. How would Hua view him? How would Jing Yuan view him?

Yanqing felt incredibly stifled in his heart right now.

But the person before him was Jing Yuan's master, and also his grandmaster...

Yanqing could only swallow his pride and bear it.

"If you want to become a Sword Head, you are currently far too lacking."

Jingliu offered a piece of advice with composure.

Yanqing said in a deep voice:

"I know you are my master's master, my grandmaster, but right now, you are a wanted criminal of the Xianzhou, a prisoner Marshal Hua has specifically ordered to be detained."

"No matter what you say, even if General Jing Yuan pleads for you, I will not show favoritism! The Xianzhou is at a turning point, and even if I have to risk my life, I will keep an eye on you!"

Jingliu seemed a bit dazed, as if she saw her former self who had once fought wholeheartedly for the Xianzhou.

She couldn't help but smile.

"Is that so... The sword may be unsteady, but the heart is exceptionally firm; that is a good thing..."

"Do you want to make a bet?"

"Let's bet... that in a while, you will personally come to let us out."

Yanqing snorted.

"That matter will naturally be decided by Marshal Hua. Whatever the Marshal does is for the sake of the Xianzhou. When the time comes, even if I have to kneel and apologize, I will accept it!"

"But for now, you are prisoners! I know the Shackles Prison cannot hold you, but I will be watching you."

"I will never allow anyone to cause any chaos just as the Xianzhou is about to welcome a new era!"

Jingliu seemed to smile.

"It seems you are not dull... Very good."

899. Fierce Beasts Have Appeared on the Xianzhou!

"Do not worry about us."

Jingliu walked toward the Shackles Prison on her own.

"We will not escape. At this critical juncture, we have no desire to break out of prison under the eyes of so many generals, the Marshal, and those cultivators."

"You can go and do your own business."

Yanqing's expression changed slightly, and just as he was about to say something, a Cloud Knight quickly approached and whispered in his ear:

"The Marshal has ordered: except for the Cloud Knights maintaining order on the Xianzhou, all commanders and Cloud Knights are to mobilize, rendezvous with the Alliance, and sweep away the remnants of Abundance."

"This is the Marshal's order; it concerns the Mara-Struck curse of the Xianzhou citizens..."

Yanqing fell silent, took one last look at the two, and said coldly:

"It had better be so! Cloud Knights, hear my order: proceed immediately to the Starskiff Haven to land and prepare for battle."

"Yes!"

Yanqing left with the many Cloud Knights. Jingliu and Blade watched them depart, then leisurely found two cells, sat down, and closed their eyes to rest.

As it stands, everything is proceeding according to the most perfect scenario Jingliu had anticipated.

It seems...

The Xianzhou indeed needs many geniuses to join.

That is a good thing...

On the other side, in the Xianzhou conference room.

Hua looked at the process marked on the projection and said softly:

"Next, what we need to do is already very clear."

"After resolving the Mara-Struck, screen personnel and head to Shushan to seek the Dao."

"After joining Shushan, bring back the martial arts techniques. Although it is a good time for Path development after the Aeons have disappeared, everyone is also aware."

"The upper limit of the Paths is too low. If the Xianzhou wants to step out of the Star Rail universe, it cannot walk the Path of the Aeons."

"Once martial arts are popularized, we can apply to bring a portion of the Xianzhou citizens into Shushan. This serves as both a reserve of talent and a way to lay a foundation in advance."

"After that, we need to use tangible contributions to exchange for a world, a world belonging to our Xianzhou to take root."

"This point..."

Before the words were finished, someone suddenly ran into the conference room in a hurry.

At this, Hua was also somewhat displeased.

"What happened again?"

The person's expression was urgent.

"Marshal, something terrible has happened!"

"Over at the Luo Fu Xianzhou's Starskiff Haven, the Cloud Knights were gathering when suddenly, a behemoth appeared from nowhere and began destroying everything wantonly."

"One-tenth of the Starskiff Haven has already been destroyed. Many Cloud Knights and commanders of the major Xianzhou are resisting with all their might. There have been no casualties yet, but there are already thousands of severely injured!"

Hua stood up instantly, her face gloomy.

"What is going on! At a time like this, who dares to come to the Xianzhou to cause trouble!"

"Meeting suspended. Everyone, head to the Starskiff Haven."

The meeting that had just begun was forced to terminate, and a large group of people quickly walked out of the conference room...

At this moment, they also saw people from other factions.

Iron Curtain from the Antimatter Legion spoke first.

"This has nothing to do with us! Our Antimatter Legion is not so stupid as to cause trouble when so many cultivators are present!"

Hua withdrew her gaze, paid them no mind, and quickly led her people to board the shuttle to the Starskiff Haven.

People from other factions also boarded their shuttles and followed.

Before long, they had arrived at the Starskiff Haven.

From afar, they saw the black panther, roughly several thousand meters large with wings on its back, outside the sky-supporting light barrier.

At this moment, there was a hideous bloody wound on its body, but it was slowly recovering.

It was attacking the light barrier continuously in a frenzy. Many Cloud Knights were pinning it down from a distance, not daring to get close at all.

A large area of Cloud Knights was already lying on the ground, but even the attacks from Yanqing and the others had no effect on the black panther.

With just one glance, Hua understood that this was not an existence from the Star Rail universe.

The power flowing on its body belonged to the cultivation world...

A demon? Or...

"A late-stage Essence Refining and Qi Transforming fierce beast, the Cloud-Ascending Leopard..."

Suddenly, a voice rang out. Everyone looked back, and Hua bowed slightly.

"Miss Lisa."

900. Hua: What fierce beast? It is clearly a treasure of the Xianzhou!

Lisa stepped on the void, slowly landed in front of the crowd, and handed Hua several bottles of pills.

"Sensing the commotion here, I came to take a look. These are some healing pills. For mortals, as long as they aren't dead, they can be saved."

Hua's heart stirred, and she said gratefully:

"Thank you, Miss Lisa."

"No need to thank me. Come to think of it, this was caused by our oversight..."

Hearing this, everyone was puzzled. Diamond said softly:

"Does Miss Lisa mean..."

Lisa pursed her lips and smiled.

"This time, when coming to the Star Rail universe, in order to mobilize the Spirit Race, we opened the gate outside Shushan City."

"Perhaps the momentary leakage of spiritual energy attracted this beast. In other words, this guy is a fierce beast from Shushan."

"After all, according to the situation of spiritual energy recovery, your Star Rail universe cannot yet give birth to a fierce beast of this level."

Jing Yuan was stunned for a moment.

"Fierce beast? I remember... they are a group of creatures without wisdom, knowing only slaughter, considered products of failed evolution?"

"That's right. Come to think of it, I don't know whether to say you are lucky or unlucky."

Lisa shook her head. ===== CHAPTER 994 =====
