Chapter 899

~6 min read 1,073 words

Silver Wolf: "Scheming against an Aeon — now that's a high-end game."

Paimon: "Everyone on the Astral Express — we're really about to deal with an Aeon?"

Paimon: "Oh my... this doesn't even count as an adventure anymore..."

Paimon: "Paimon is starting to wonder — for someone like me with no combat ability, if I joined the Astral Express, would I not even survive the first Trailblazing expedition?"

Brother Dan Heng: "There's no need to be that pessimistic."

Brother Dan Heng: "The Astral Express has never required combat ability as a condition for joining."

Brother Dan Heng: "If you don't have a talent for fighting, perhaps you can shine in other places."

Lumine: "Mm, Paimon eats a lot."

Lumine: "Just let her stay on the Express and help the conductor cook."

Lumine: "Then she can help the conductor with odd jobs on the Express."

Paimon: "Uh... even though I'm really not happy about it."

Paimon: "But it does seem like this is what I should be doing."

Paimon: "Sigh, I wish I had combat ability too..."

The video continued.

【So the Diviner already knows about Hoolay's prison break?】

Stelle asked curiously.

【This matter has caused quite a stir — naturally, I am aware of it.】

【However, just like the citizens of Luofu Xianzhou, upon learning that the entire affair was under the control of the Cloud Knights and the Ten-Lords Commission, the result can be considered heartening.】

【On the journey back, I roughly divined the course of events through calculation, and I must say it was fortunate to have you, guests of the Astral Express — Luo Fu has once again weathered a calamity.】

Furina: "She can even calculate the course of events so clearly."

Furina: "Diviner Fu's abilities are truly impressive."

Stelle: "Got it — we're actually lucky stars, here to shield Luo Fu from calamity."

Diviner Fu Xuan: "Mm, that statement isn't wrong."

March 7th: "So we're actually not jinxes?"

Brother Dan Heng: "...."

Brother Dan Heng: "Have you really thought that all along?"

March 7th: "Ahaha... it's not really like that."

March 7th: "It's just that wherever we go, big trouble seems to happen — it's such a coincidence!"

Stelle: "Perhaps this is the guidance of Trailblaze in the unseen."

Stelle: "Wherever there's trouble, we'll go and solve it!"

Stelle: "Pfft, as expected of us!"

The video continued.

【By the way, my lord, you should have told us in advance that you were coming back!】

Stelle complained a little that Diviner Fu Xuan had returned without notifying them beforehand.

【I am not one who likes to make a big fuss — it was merely returning from a business trip, there's no need for so many people to line up and welcome me.】

【However, I did contact Miss Qingque in advance, asking her to meet me at the Star Skiff Haven...】

【Hmph, I looked around, and she's not here either — I should head back to the Divination Commission and settle things with Miss Qingque.】

Diviner Fu Xuan scanned her surroundings,

and found no sign of Miss Qingque,

immediately furrowing her brow deeply.

【Haha, Miss Qingque, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself.】

Stelle, hearing Diviner Fu Xuan's words, laughed somewhat gleefully at Miss Qingque's misfortune.

【It doesn't matter — Hearing Yanqing was planning to see the Astral Express group off, and this also serves as a welcome feast for the Diviner.】

【Let's take a group photo together — only then is it complete.】

March 7th proposed taking a group photo with Diviner Fu Xuan.

【Mm, Young Lady March's proposal is good — let's do it that way.】

Diviner Fu Xuan nodded, and then everyone took a cheerful group photo together.

Stelle: "Miss Qingque, you're done for!!"

Stelle: "Better run fast!"

Stelle: "Or you'll soon be in deep trouble!"

Miss Qingque: "Huh???"

Miss Qingque: "No way?!"

Miss Qingque: "My lord, did you get something wrong?"

Miss Qingque: "Is it possible that you actually never sent me a message, and this is all something you imagined from overworking yourself?"

Diviner Fu Xuan: "Oh?"

Diviner Fu Xuan: "Are you implying that at my young age, I've already started getting senile?"

Miss Qingque: "No no no!"

Miss Qingque: "That's not what I meant!

Diviner Fu Xuan: "Then what do you mean?"

Diviner Fu Xuan: "Slacking off to the point of even forgetting to contact me?"

Qingque: "Oh my, absolutely impossible!"

Qingque: "Whatever my lord the Diviner assigns me, I always pour my heart and scheming mind into completing it!"

Qingque: "How could I possibly forget?"

Stelle: "Chief Qing, stop making excuses."

Stelle: "You weren't at the Skysplitter Port at all!"

Stelle: "There wasn't even a shadow of you here!"

Qingque: "Ahem... there must have been some accident!"

Qingque: "Keep watching, I was definitely held up by something!"

Qingque: "I swear!"

The video continued.

【The Astral Express has traveled to and from Luo Fu many times, and even though we are guests invited by the Cloud Knights, the farewell need not be overly solemn.】

【Today's brief parting — should the Xianzhoulian Alliance have matters to discuss in the future, please contact our conductor at any time.】

After taking the photo, Brother Dan Heng said to Diviner Fu Xuan.

【After all, the Astral Express and the Xianzhoulian Alliance are already allies.】

Fu Xuan nodded with pleasure.

【Indeed, even for esteemed guests who have crossed the vast starry sea to come from afar, returning to Luofu Xianzhou for a meeting is not always a difficult matter.】

【I believe there will be opportunities in the future to meet all of you teachers again and exchange pointers at the Tao Sect.】

【... To be honest, Hearing Yanqing also has plans to ride the Express and travel around to temper himself.】

【I wonder what the teachers think?】

Yanqing's tone shifted, and he looked at Stelle and the others.

【We're definitely welcoming!】

【Oh right, aren't Sister Himeko and Uncle Yang also coming back today?】

【We can discuss it with them too...】

Stelle: "Oh!"

Stelle: "Yanqing, my boy, you've got an eye for it!"

Stelle: "If you want to temper yourself, choosing our Astral Express is absolutely the right call!"

March 7th: "That's right!"

March 7th: "Just a few pioneering journeys and I guarantee they'll open Master Yanqing's eyes!"

Yanqing: "Honestly, after seeing all of you teachers' adventures in Penacony, I feel that with my current strength, I'm still a bit too insignificant."

Yanqing: "I'm afraid I'd just hold you teachers back."
