“Go, of course we have to go.”
Jiang Lin was the first to speak. After all, Penacony not only had the special existence of Huang Quan, but also the cornerstone of Preservation.
As well as the incarnation of harmony—dominicus.
If he managed to get all of these, Jiang Lin couldn't even imagine how much more cheerful a boy he would become.
March 7th also agreed:
“That’s right, Nameless can’t stop exploring just because of danger.”
Dan Heng nodded:
“As the guard of the Astral Express, no matter what, I will go with you all this time.”
“But if that’s the case, who will stay behind on the Astral Express? Is it really okay to leave Pam alone?”
March 7th asked with some concern.
“It’s okay, Pam, the Astral Express’s defenses are still very strong.”
Pam patted his small chest, confidently indicating that it was no problem.
Welt saw that everyone had no objections and looked at Himeko:
“In that case, the Astral Express’s next stop is Penacony. When do we depart?”
Himeko thought for a moment: “Let’s depart in two days. Everyone should prepare first.”
After Himeko’s words, everyone went to attend to their own matters.
Welt fell into deep thought by the window, seemingly not yet recovered from the video he had just watched.
March 7th returned to her room to pack a pile of seemingly completely unnecessary luggage… Dan Heng returned to the data bank, apparently inputting some information.
As for Stelle, she was provocatively teasing the Conductor.
And Himeko, without anyone noticing, seemed to have gone to… make coffee?!
And so, Jiang Lin returned to Xianzhou Loufu once again.
This time, Jiang Lin went directly to the Divine Might Division.
Upon seeing Jiang Lin, the staff of the Divine Might Division all showed expressions of admiration.
After all, they and their families were the first Xianzhou people to benefit from the revival pill.
Qingzu directly contacted Jing Yuan and arranged for Jiang Lin to wait for a moment.
Not long after, Jing Yuan appeared before him with a smile on his face.
Jiang Lin spoke first:
“General Jing Yuan, the purpose of my visit this time is regarding our previous agreement…”
Upon hearing these words, Jing Yuan’s previously smiling expression instantly stiffened.
He let out a helpless bitter laugh:
“I apologize, Mr. Jiang Lin, the matter of Star-Hunter Lan’s blessing was not intentionally delayed by Jing Yuan, it’s just that this matter is indeed no small feat… Moreover, although Star-Hunter Lan is our faith, she does not speak to mortals; she only announces her divine will through light arrows.”
Jing Yuan was also a bit helpless. He couldn’t possibly ask Star-Hunter Lan to directly shoot Jiang Lin with an arrow, could he?
Jiang Lin shook his head: “General, you misunderstand. I am not here to hold you accountable, but to conclude our agreement.”
Jing Yuan was a bit puzzled: “Why is that? The Xianzhou Alliance is not one to break promises; what we have agreed to, the Xianzhou Alliance will do its best to fulfill.”
Jiang Lin didn’t explain much, directly condensing the longbow identical to Lan’s… “Because your Aeon has already completed the final agreement on your behalf.”
Yes, when Jiang Lin jokingly told Herta that the Aeon of the hunt, Lan, had given him VIP access on her Path, he really wasn’t lying.
When Jiang Lin made his initial attempts, he discovered that,
Through that Light Cone, “Hear the Dao in the Morning, Die in the Evening with No Regrets,” the power of the entire Path of the hunt seemed to be completely open to him.
As long as his body could withstand it, he could use as much power as he wanted.
Of course, the limit of that Light Cone was an Aeon-level strike, and Jiang Lin’s limit might be a bit lower.
Because his current self had not yet collected the power of seven Paths, unlike his future self.
But even so, if Jiang Lin wanted to fight to the death, he should be able to take down anyone below an Aeon.
And for the power of the entire Path of the hunt to be completely open to Jiang Lin, he didn’t believe it could be achieved with just a Light Cone without the approval of the Aeon of the hunt—Lan.
After all, Aeons have the final say over the interpretation of their own Paths.
And with the power of the hunt already in his possession, there was no need for him to demand it from the Xianzhou Alliance again.
Moreover, he was also afraid of what if he really got shot by Lan of the hunt? Although the probability was extremely small.
After all, paying twice for the same thing would annoy anyone.
Aeons might not be the same, but Jiang Lin didn’t dare to gamble, and he had no need to gamble at all.
Soon after.
Jiang Lin left.
Leaving Jing Yuan and Qingzu staring at each other.
Jing Yuan’s mind was very confused right now.
And he was now doubting his own eyes; heaven knew what he had just seen.
If he told other Cloud Knights and Marshals about this, no one would believe him, right?
Star-Hunter Lan’s weapon actually appeared in Jiang Lin’s hands?!
Could he unleash that future life-risking strike?
As for why Jing Yuan didn’t suspect it was fake?
Are you kidding? That extremely dense aura of the hunt was even more like an Emissary of the hunt than he, a legitimate Xianzhou Cloud Knight.
If the two of them stood together, those who didn’t know would think he, Jing Yuan, was a fresh recruit.
The more he thought about this, the more terrifying it became. The more Jing Yuan thought about it, the more he felt he was at the age where he should be taking revival pills… Jing Yuan gently shook his head and sighed.
“Forget it, I won’t worry about it. I’ll report it to the Marshal and let her deal with the headache.”
————
After leaving the Divine Might Division, Jiang Lin realized that he seemed to have nothing to do on the Loufu for the time being.
After thinking about it, he decided to return to the Astral Express first and install all the advanced research equipment he had bought.
Then he would have his own dedicated laboratory on the Astral Express.
The most crucial thing was that the Astral Express was durable. Jiang Lin wasn’t afraid that an explosion from a failed experiment would destroy the Astral Express.
After all, according to rumors, the last person to blow up the Astral Express was the Aeon of Elation, Aha.
But what gave Jiang Lin a direct sense of the Astral Express’s toughness was… the battleship he had hand-built on the Xianzhou’s star-skiff assembly line last time… it rear-ended the Astral Express, but the Astral Express was perfectly fine, while his battleship was already scrapped.
It was already space junk, floating somewhere unknown.
The quality of the Xianzhou Alliance’s materials, those annihilated Abominations of Abundance had the most say; they were guaranteed.
And time passed quickly amidst the busyness.
In the blink of an eye, two days had passed… (Daily begging: Writing is not easy, please give some free gifts, support the author with “love-powered generation”).
