Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

"Hehehehe~~ Full power release, I might actually end up buried here~"

Somewhere in the Huan Yu, the Primordial Doctor clutched his shattered brain with a single hand.

What seeped through his fingers wasn't blood, but some kind of pale green data stream constantly dissipating.

The Undying Path's strike didn't just kill his slice; the subsequent Hunt light arrows pursued along the causal line, piercing his skull from the conceptual level.

"Truly valiant, Xuan Huang."

He chalked this debt up to Xuan Ge.

But noted or not, he could only endure it.

This trip to the Star Sky Martial Arts, his original purpose was to see Polka Kakamu with his own eyes, to see if she really had a thing with Xuan Ge.

The answer was already obvious.

Yes, and deeply so.

He didn't understand causality, but he could guess there had to be some kind of causal PY deal between Polka and Xuan Ge.

Can't think about it, or Xuan Ge really would trace the internet cable to find him.

Better keep tangling with the Undying Path.

After all, people who play with causality are all dirty.

The Undying Path stood where the Primordial Doctor's slice had fallen, looking down at the corpse gradually losing temperature, and sighed.

"What a pity, couldn't kill in one hit."

His first shot hadn't been infused with much power; it was just a probe.

After all, this was his first time using the Hunt Light Arrow.

That Primordial Doctor fellow indeed had means; the slice automatically severed connection with the main body the instant the arrow sank into the skull.

But severing was useless; the Hunt Light Arrow was still inevitable hit.

The real Primordial Doctor was also hit, just didn't die.

He said it was a pity, but his brain was already calculating the next time.

Next time, he would go all out, brush a real Big Rocket for the Primordial Doctor, and hand-feed it into his mouth.

"Guess he's still alive."

Jing Yuan walked over from far away, left hand carrying grilled skewers, right hand holding two cups of milk tea.

The Undying Path killing someone in the street shocked the surrounding people for about one second.

But only one second.

This kind of grudge-settling plays out every day in the Shen Wu Xing Xi outskirts.

The people around merely gaped slightly — this is inside the Shen Wu Xing Xi, this person acts the moment he says he will, who gave him the guts?

Oh, the Divine Strategy General's friend.

One of the Tian family's people.

Then it's fine.

"Yeah." The Undying Path stood up, his black right arm aimed at the Primordial Doctor slice's remains, devouring them clean inch by inch.

He turned his head to look at Jing Yuan, "I asked Xuan Ge, the Weng Fa Luo Si matter doesn't need my help. Next I'll return to the Er Xiang Le Yuan."

"Hehe~~ Then trouble you to be the guide." Jing Yuan handed over the milk tea and meat skewers, "I'll go play then too."

The Undying Path took them and drank a sip, eyelids flicking up: "Just this? My fee is very expensive."

Jing Yuan reached out to snatch the milk tea back.

The Undying Path immediately refused, pulling the cup into his arms protectively: "Alright, this counts as the fee."

He didn't stand on ceremony either, directly rolling up the grilled skewers and eating big mouthfuls.

"Yao Guang's side will have to trouble you. Although she's at Zhen Zhu's place, that's ultimately the company's turf."

Jing Yuan swallowed a piece of meat, wiped his mouth corner.

"Mm." The Undying Path nodded.

Jing Yuan's words contained a layer of meaning inconvenient to speak plainly; he understood very clearly.

Yao Guang's consort identity conversely restricted her freedom.

Because behind Yao Guang is the Xian Zhou, is Xuan Huang.

Everyone fears Xuan Huang, and Xuan Ge really kills, no ambiguity.

So he must return to the Er Xiang Le Yuan, unite local gangs to build up Yao Guang's image bit by bit, waiting for the day Xuan Ge personally descends.

The other side.

Xing, with Dan Heng, March 7th, and Ji Zi's assistance, finally cleared all the Five Directions Marshal's commissions.

As for where is Welt?

He of course still guarded by Luo Cha's side, not leaving a single step.

"Xing, you really want to take this step?"

Ji Zi looked at Xing who had already changed into the same pure white bodysuit as Xing Xiao, her gaze sweeping back and forth between collar and waistline twice.

"You didn't say a word to Kafka?"

"Ji Zi jie rest assured, mere Xing Xiao, I alone am enough." Xing planted both hands on her waist, chin tilted slightly up; she could already feel victory.

"Besides, with Sister Ji Zi here, that's enough."

"Hehe~~ True enough. With me here, that's enough." Ji Zi chuckled lightly.

Those were Xing's own words; it's really not that she didn't call Kafka.

If she can have it to herself, she'll still try to keep it to herself as much as possible.

Saves Xuan Ge from having to eat Eggplant Tomato Rice.

"Alright Xing, you'd better recover your cool demeanor quick. Otherwise it's too discordant."

March 7th stepped up beside her and helped tidy her collar, then stepped back two paces and looked her over in a full circle.

"What's wrong? If I open my mouth now, won't I bewitch Xuan Ge to death?"

Xing spun a circle on the spot.

Her figure was far better than Xing Xiao's; her curves stretched just right beneath the bodysuit.

And hers were very plump and very fair.

Dan Heng stood to the side, not making a single sound from start to finish.

He was thinking: should he go capture Ren and bring him back right now?

Forget it, better to just send a message.

He fished out his phone and rapidly tapped three characters on the screen.

【Danger, rescue immediately】

Sent.

Dan Heng slipped his phone back into his pocket, feeling his mood improve considerably.

He lifted his head, looking at Xing's expectant face.

"Rest assured. Ren is already on his way riding a horse. Ren said he supports you."

"Really~ Ren Shu treats me so well~~" Xing clenched her fists, her confidence surging up another notch.

She wasn't stupid; she was very smart.

She turned her head to look at Dan Heng, her eyes already automatically generating the investiture scene.

"Dan Heng! After I become Consort, I'll appoint you as the Astral Express's Great General!"

"Forget the General title. Give it to Ren instead."

Xing didn't mind Dan Heng's refusal.

She took a deep breath, slowly reeling in the smile on her face bit by bit, replacing it with the shell of a cool, domineering older sister.

Chin pressed down slightly, corners of her eyes tilted upward.

"Follow this Palace, let's go have an audience with the Emperor."

The group walked toward the Huang Gong in a grand, imposing procession.

At the Tongjun Fu gate, the Five Direction Commanders leaned against the corridor pillars, watching the Astral Express group's retreating figures grow ever more distant.

"Speaking of which, our Shen Wu hasn't been this lively in a long time."

Li Chunxiao hugged his arms, his face carrying a trace of sentiment.

"Last time it was this lively was when Lao Bai was pinned in the bedroom by Qi Ningli for three days and didn't come out."

"Is that so. I remember a certain someone bawling his eyes out in utter pieces on his daughter's wedding day."

Bai Qi gazed into the distance, replying coolly.

Qin Qiong beside them couldn't hold it in and burst out with a *puchi* laugh.

Li Chunxiao's murderous gaze instantly swiveled its muzzle: "Lao Qin, what are you laughing at?"

"I just recalled something funny."

Qin Qiong coughed lightly twice, quickly composed his expression, and steered the topic back halfway.

"Still, Miss Xing's actions have added a bit of vitality to Shen Wu. Otherwise——"

"Otherwise the Emperor is too complacent, liable to get carried away." Wei Qing naturally picked up the thread.

The other four all nodded in unison.

The royal family's affairs they couldn't meddle in, nor should they.

But during the competition the Xuan Emperor vanished the whole time, holed up in the viewing room, unseeing and unhearing.

Everyone knew in their hearts clear as a mirror what the Emperor had gone off to do.

The Xuan Emperor's reputation isn't just known throughout the Huan Yu; the five of them, as the Xuan Emperor's personal guards, know it clearest of all.

It's not just something passed down from Consort Li; it was destined from the moment Xing Fei dragged Xuan Ge into the You Qiu Yu's Xiao Hezi and carried out those clandestine dealings.

Xuan Ge and those women in the harem — they're all the same as each other.

"Ah... birds of a feather flock together, after all."

The five looked toward the Huang Gong and sighed in unison.

This isn't the Emperor's fault alone.

The Emperor's consorts each and every one have issues.

It's just that the Emperor is a case of low mountain meeting foul water finding a kindred spirit — shared tastes, that's all.

Inside the Stellaron Hunters' Hang Jian.

Kafka, who was reviewing the Script, caught Ren's figure in her peripheral vision and called out to stop him.

"Ren, where are you going?"

She didn't call him "A Ren".

That form of address could no longer be used.

She had a family now, a husband, a daughter; those appellations were best avoided if possible.

"Dan Heng is in danger. I'm leaving now." Ren headed straight for the Separation Compartment without looking back.

"Danger? Isn't he still on Shen Wu Xian Zhou?"

Silver Wolf lay on the long chair beside him, chewing bubble gum.

As long as Ren wasn't in Shen Wu, Dan Heng was the safest person on the whole Xian Zhou.

After all, in all of Huan Yu, he was the only one who could chase after Shen Wu's Dragon Sovereign and hack at him.

Kafka's eyebrow twitched slightly, sensing something fishy about this.
