Jiaoqiu, maintaining his squinty expression, came over and shook hands with Qiong. After that, the two were considered acquaintances. Qiong didn't take Jiaoqiu's flattery to heart at all, and just looked at him curiously.
"You're a doctor, so this is what you bandaged me up?"
Qiong pointed to her shoulder and asked, "They must have put medicine on it; it doesn't hurt as much now."
"Indeed, Your Excellency has a truly remarkable physique. To survive being bitten by General Feixiao is truly amazing."
Jiaoqiu gave Qiong a thumbs up. It might sound a bit impolite, but Feixiao after Yuekuang did indeed kill enemies by biting. Besides weapons, his mouth was the sharpest weapon.
"Jiaoqiu, if you say another pointless thing, get out."
Feixiao hadn't let Jiaoqiu in to hear this, and immediately reprimanded him with dissatisfaction. This subordinate was very capable, but he was too long-winded. Since it concerned Qiong's affairs, she didn't have the patience to let Jiaoqiu continue his nonsense.
"Okay, let's get down to business."
Jiaoqiu nodded, his expression becoming more serious. He opened his squinting eyes and looked at Qiong, who looked at Jiaoqiu in surprise. He had thought this guy was blind, but it turned out he could open his eyes.
“During the treatment just now, I took some of your blood for research and discovered some substances I’ve never seen before. This involves your secrets, so I won’t ask about it. I can’t figure out what those things are either. But I can confirm that General Feixiao’s recovery was largely due to those substances in your blood. It was because of those substances that he got rid of Yue Kuang’s symptoms.”
Jiaoqiu spoke calmly, but beneath that calmness lay a hint of excitement. Feixiao and Qiong hadn't expected this outcome. In fact, Feixiao had already guessed it; she knew Yuekuang wouldn't calm down so easily because Qiong had done something around him. She just hadn't expected it to be because he drank his blood.

"Got it, isn't this great? Next time she has an attack, she can just bite me."
Qiong readily accepted the offer. He wasn't afraid of getting hurt; he was only afraid of not being able to help Feixiao. Having such an ability now was a pleasant surprise.
Qiong didn't have a clear understanding of his own abilities, but after Jiaoqiu's reminder, he thought of what happened to Danshu. Danshu once said that after the Immortal Boat people fell into the demonic Yin body, they would become closer to the Buli people and could also make up for their own defects by absorbing excellent genes. Danshu optimized her genes in this way and got rid of the blindness of the heavenly defect.
Feixiao is a hybrid of fox and Buli people. It's unknown whether fox people have this ability, but Buli people definitely do. It's easy to understand why Yuekuang's symptoms were cured after she absorbed Qiong's genes. Qiong could even interpret it as if Yuekuang could have been cured if Feixiao had done the same thing as Danshu. However, there is no basis for this. If Feixiao could be taken to Danshu for diagnosis, then it could be confirmed.
"Hehe, it's not that simple. Just relieving the symptoms isn't enough. We want a cure. So I was wondering if you could cooperate with our treatment and stay on the ship for a while."
Jiaoqiu said with a smile. Qiong felt that something was wrong with what he was saying. It felt like he was about to be imprisoned. The person who had said this to him before was called Ruan Mei. She was a super beauty from the Genius Club, and Qiong was happy to accept it. But this was a pink-haired male fox. He had no interest in her at all.
"Jiaoqiu, stop talking."
Fei Xiao spoke seriously, saying that she couldn't let Qiong stay to cooperate with any research; it wouldn't be fair to him. Not to mention that he was her brother-in-law, even an ordinary person wouldn't do that.
"General, after so many years, we've finally found a cure, and this is truly our only hope!"
Jiaoqiu excitedly told Feixiao that he was the one who most wanted to save Feixiao's life, and only he had the ability to do so. Now that hope was right in front of him, how could he give up so easily?
"I'll say it again, don't even think about hitting on him."
Fei Xiao raised her voice. She rarely treated her subordinates in such a reprimanding manner, but when it came to Qiong, she would naturally side with him, not wanting Qiong to suffer any injustice, no matter the reason.
"...Yes, sir."
Jiaoqiu sighed helplessly, but in the end he obeyed Feixiao's order. Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit stiff, it was naturally his turn to speak.
"There's no need to make the atmosphere so serious, Mr. Jiaoqiu. We all hope that Feixiao can live a healthy life. If there are no other options at the moment, I will naturally cooperate with your research."
"You mean there are other methods?"
Jiaoqiu was a very clever strategist. Hearing Qiong say that, he understood what she meant. Qiong obviously had a better solution.
"Well, after things are settled here, I plan to take her to see a doctor who is an expert in genetics and life sciences. There will always be a way."
Qiong's words improved Jiaoqiu's mood. He knew that the people on the Starry Sky Train were capable and it wouldn't be difficult for them to find a better doctor than the one on the Immortal Ship; it just depended on whether they were willing to give him face.
"That's great. As long as General Feixiao can be cured, you can make any request. The Immortal Boat Alliance also values the General's condition and doesn't want to lose such a powerful fighter."
Jiaoqiu wanted Qiong to put more effort into finding a doctor, so she naturally started making empty promises. Feixiao knew something was wrong when he heard this, but it was too late to stop her.
"Really? Then I can get permission to marry her?"
Qiong looked at Jiaoqiu expectantly and asked, "Feixiao's marriage is not just her own business. The Immortal Boat Alliance will definitely get involved, because Qiong is not a member of the Immortal Boat. How can they watch Yiling Z Niqia Jiusiju marry off their strongest combatant to another country? Anyway, there will be a lot of wrangling."
"Well, I really can't be sure about this. It's quite unexpected as a condition, but as long as the general is willing, no one will object."
Jiaoqiu stared blankly at Qiong and shook his head, saying that if Qiong wanted money and power, those would be very easy to obtain, but as for Feixiao, he felt that the alliance's higher-ups might regard Qiong as a major enemy.
"Well, that's no problem."
Qiong said happily, while Jiaoqiu gave her general a strange look. Feixiao was very annoyed and immediately glared back. Jiaoqiu then resumed her squinty expression, smiled and left the room, leaving the place to Feixiao and Qiong.
Almost simultaneously, Yu Kong opened the door and walked in. Upon seeing Qiong, she could no longer hide the worry on her face and immediately hugged him tightly after sitting on the bed.
"A-Qiong, are you alright?"
Yu Kong's voice choked with sobs. When she heard about Qiong and Fei Xiao's accident, she felt like the sky had fallen. These two people were people she cared about, especially Qiong. If he were gone, Yu Kong really felt like she couldn't go on living.
"Honey, why did you come in person? Of course I'm fine."
Qiong patted Yu Kong on the back and said that Yu Kong was crying, which made Qiong and Fei Xiao feel heartbroken and could only try their best to comfort her.
"It's my fault. If I hadn't handed Feixiao over to you, none of this would have happened."
Yu Kong said with self-reproach, she didn't mean that Qiong shouldn't have saved Fei Xiao, but that if the two of them hadn't acted together, Fei Xiao wouldn't have encountered the Bu Li people, and his old illness wouldn't have relapsed. Ordinary soldiers could have handled that number of Bu Li people, and there was no need for Fei Xiao to risk his life to take action.
"Sister Yu Kong, please tell me how those Bu Li people came to be. When I saw the Bu Li people in Luofu, I really lost my composure, which is why I used too much force."
Feixiao changed the subject, not letting Yukong continue to be sad. That's how it is when people get old; their emotions are easily out of control. Feixiao also wanted to know what had happened.
"Sigh, it's all because of the company's merchant ships. They were being chased by the Buli people and came to Luofu for refuge. When we rescued them, we captured a group of Buli people. We were originally going to send them to the Youju Prison for interrogation, but recently there have been too many people coming, so we haven't found a suitable opportunity. Today we were going to send them to the Youju Prison, but I don't know which careless soldier made a mistake. When we were escorting the Buli people, they broke free, which led to this whole series of events."
Yu Kong said helplessly, "In the end, it's because Jing Yuan insisted on holding the martial arts ceremony to deter the villains. It's not that Jing Yuan is bad, it's just that he's been too busy lately, which has led to many oversights. Everyone makes mistakes, but these mistakes just happened to coincide with something that makes people feel helpless."
Chapter 284 My Wife's Assistance
"What a coincidence! But if those Bu Li people knew that they almost got replaced by a Celestial Boat General, they'd probably be laughing all the way to the bank."
Qiong felt there was nothing unreasonable about this, and said with a smile. Feixiao glared at him and raised his hand to hit him, but seeing how much Yukong cared about him, he raised his hand and then lowered it.
"Honey, where are we? I heard we were on some kind of ship."
Qiong asked Yu Kong, explaining that he had been sent to this unfamiliar place while unconscious and only now had time to inquire.
"This is the Jingfeng Ship, a warship that was decommissioned from the Xianzhou. It is also the venue for this martial arts competition. The martial arts competition has not started yet, and there is not much people around except for the staff."
Yu Kong explained to Qiong, who then got off the bed. As if they had agreed beforehand, Yu Kong and Fei Xiao took his arms on either side and led him to the window. Looking down, it was at least 300 meters above the ground. It was indeed a huge airship. The fact that the Immortal Ship could accommodate such a warship showed just how enormous its interior was.
"No wonder they arranged for Dafei to be here; that way, even if she goes crazy, the damage can be minimized."
Qiong nodded knowingly and said that Feixiao also felt that the result was better than expected. After she went mad, she was not directly locked in the Netherworld Prison. Jingyuan must have been under a lot of pressure to send her here. Indeed, as the investigation results showed, although Jingyuan was good at strategy, he was still a kind and gentle person at heart.
"By the way, how is Fei Xiao's Yue Kuang doing? How did he recover?"
Yu Kong had been thinking about Qiong's situation before, but now he realized that Fei Xiao's Yue Kuang seemed to be even more dangerous than Qiong, so he looked at her and asked with concern.
"Of course, it's your husband's skill to be a gypsum specialist, that's all."
Qiong, holding Yu Kong's hand, explained how she restored Fei Xiao to normal. It was all a matter of cause and effect, because they encountered Bu Liren while they were on a mission together, but the person who could save Fei Xiao happened to be Qiong. This accident also made them realize that Qiong's blood had such an effect, which could be considered a blessing in disguise.
"By the way, Feixiao has the bloodline of the Buli people, which allows her to absorb superior genes. This means that your genes are superior to hers, so it makes perfect sense for you two to be a match."
Yu Kong's mind worked very quickly. A person who can be a helmsman naturally thinks more and sees further than ordinary people, so he instantly understood where the source was.
"Sister Yukong, what are you talking about pairing up? It's not like we're on a blind date," Feixiao said.
"Feixiao, come here."
Yu Kong pulled Fei Xiao's hand and led her to a corner of the room to whisper. The two of them would glance at Qiong from time to time, while Fei Xiao's expression was very conflicted.
"Is this really okay?"
"You are a Bu Li person, and you ask me if I can?"
"I'm not... well, half yes."
Fei Xiao felt somewhat helpless when she heard Yu Kong say that. Yu Kong had never mentioned her other half of her bloodline before, just in case she thought too much. But now he kept talking about Bu Liren. It just goes to show that people's hearts have changed.
"This is the only way to heal Qiong without hurting her, but I'm just guessing. You can ask Ling Sha if it's feasible."
"I understand."
Feixiao scratched her white hair, still looking conflicted. She had never slept with a man before, so how would she know what to do? But what Yukong said made a lot of sense. Who would want to die if they could live? Feixiao wanted to help Xianzhou fight for several more decades.
“You are braver than any man on the battlefield, why are you backing down now? You are a general now, what is there to be afraid of?”
Something just feels off...
Feixiao listened to Yukong's words and felt that it was indeed true. When she joined the army, she had already forgotten her gender. Her gender was that of a general. Why would she be conflicted about matters between men and women? It must be because of Qiong's influence. Who told him to always see himself as a woman?
"Aqiong, you can move now. Your companions are worried about you. I'll take you down."
Yu Kong didn't want Qiong to stay on the Jingfeng Ship forever. If he didn't go back to the Xingqiong Train, the people there would probably explode. He had always been so popular, always the center of attention wherever he went.
“Okay, what about Dafei?” Qiong nodded and asked.
"I have some things to do on the Jingfeng ship. Besides, we're not magnets, why should we always stick together?"
Feixiao doesn't really want to see Qiong right now, because of what Yukong just said, and also because he still feels guilty towards him. He plans to calm down first.
"You bastard, you call me brother-in-law all the time when you want to eat, but now that you've used it, you're denying it, aren't you? You're heartless after you've taken it."
Qiong said with a double meaning, that eating could be the snacks bought before, or it could be his blood. In any case, Feixiao did it with his mouth, which made perfect sense.
"What kind of talk is that? It's not a given that my brother-in-law should take care of me. It's unreasonable for you to want to be taken care of by your sister-in-law."
Fei Xiao said irritably. Seeing that Qiong was about to start bickering with Fei Xiao again, Yu Kong smiled and pulled Qiong away. Seeing that their relationship had not been strained by this accident, Yu Kong felt relieved.
Qiong returned to the ground in the starship piloted by his wife. Yu Kong still had things to do, so after handing Qiong over to Liu Ying, who was waiting outside the Sky Ship Bureau, she went back to work.
"Honey, I'm sorry to have worried you. Here's a kiss."
Qiong opened his arms to Liuying and said that Liuying immediately threw herself into his arms. After smelling the medicine on his body, tears fell like small pearls.
"Where are you hurt? Does it hurt a lot? I wish I could stay by your side the whole time."
Liu Ying's sadness stemmed entirely from her heartache over Qiong's ordeal. She had failed to protect him once again, which deeply saddened her. Even though it wasn't her fault at all, she still took the blame upon herself.
"Don't cry, honey. Isn't this just like what happened to you back then?"
Qiong held Liuying's soft body and used words to divert her attention. Liuying stopped crying when she was confused and wanted to know what Qiong was talking about.
"Back then?"
"When you were captured by the Sleeping One, didn't I risk my life to save you? That's part of pursuing a girl. Others spend time or money to pursue girls, but I risk my own safety. The reward is quite generous, isn't it? Look how devoted you are to me now, right?"
Qiong smiled and said to Liuying, who thought about it and realized it was true. She was the one who was heartbroken back then, and now she was experiencing it from another perspective. When Qiong saved her and disappeared, his lovers must have felt the same way she did.
"You're so good with words, you're such a bad guy."
Liu Ying raised her hand and gently patted Qiong's back. Actually, Liu Ying knew in the dream that even if they hadn't confirmed their relationship, he would risk his life to save any girl he liked. He did this once or twice. She knew that she would definitely experience this again with him in the future. That's why Liu Ying rarely spoke ill of him and compared him to a big bad guy.

Chapter 285 A Pillow is Provided When You're Sleepy
"Where are you hurt? Let me see."
After Liu Ying and Qiong separated, Liu Ying asked, and Qiong also took off his clothes to let Liu Ying see the wound on his shoulder. Seeing that it was not a vital area, his girlfriend breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still a little heartbroken about what he had done.
Liu Ying's fingers gently stroked the wound, her movements becoming increasingly tender. Her expression revealed a hint of disappointment as she pursed her lips, as if she were thinking of something.
"Are you thinking that you got injured today and can't fight alongside me to survive?"
Qiong asked with a smile, guessing at Liuying's feelings. Upon hearing this, Liuying blushed, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
"You're annoying, I didn't think that at all."
Liu Ying blushed as she helped Qiong put on his clothes. It was all his fault for not wearing clothes, which was why she had those thoughts. Liu Ying admitted that she was always attracted to Qiong's body and wanted to do something with him, but she could still restrain herself.
"Qiong, I heard you were injured. Are you alright?"
March 7's voice suddenly broke through, just in time to save Liu Ying from her predicament. Qiong and Liu Ying looked to the side and saw March 7 walking over with Dan Heng. Little March looked very worried.
“I thought it was a return to familiar places, how could there be such danger? Why don’t we go back to the train, it’s safe there.”
March 7th circled around Qiong, and after confirming that he was alright, he was still a little worried and began to doubt Luofu's security. If Qiong could get injured like this, who would dare to stay here?
"It's okay, I wasn't hurt by a local. Besides, the train isn't here. Where are you going to go?"
Qiong smiled and ruffled March 7's pink hair, saying that only when she was injured could she see how worried March 7 was about her. She had lost her usual ability to think, even though she wasn't very smart to begin with.
"Oh right, I forgot about it."
March 7th scratched his head and said, "The Star Train is still wandering in an unknown star field, but we can't make contact with it yet. It seems that we can only rely on ourselves to overcome this danger."
Qiong held March 7's hand and told her how he got injured. He couldn't talk about Feixiao's matter for the time being, so he blamed Bu Liren and the company's ships for the injury.
"So it was those bastards from the company. Let's go settle the score with them."
Upon hearing that Qiong's injury was due to the company's negligence, March 7th immediately found a scapegoat and dragged Qiong along to seek revenge.
