"What? It wasn't me after all."

"If you like, I can certainly make one for you, but you don't usually wear hats, and you're not used to wearing one all the time, are you?"

Qiong said with a smile, and although what he said made sense, Liuying still clung to his neck and asked him to make her a hat, even if she wouldn't wear it all the time, so that she could keep it as a memento.

Qiong's idea of ​​making hats came from the doll that the Great Black Tower gave him. It's unclear whether it was given in a hurry or not, but the Black Tower doll didn't have a hat on its head. The Great Black Tower herself was a hat enthusiast, and she gave all the dolls a hat except for this one, so Qiong simply made one herself.

Qiong was a genius; he learned everything quickly. Even simple techniques like making hats were learned after just a few glances and a few questions. It just needed some time to complete, but he wasn't in a hurry to finish it immediately. Instead, he prepared the design and planned to complete it in his spare time.

Liu Ying held Qiong's hand and continued strolling through the streets. However, they ended up back at the inn where they had stayed before. Liu Ying led Qiong to the room filled with memories and quietly locked the door.

"Ah Ying, what are you going to do with me?"

Qiong asked curiously, but the atmosphere in the room changed immediately after the door was locked. His gentle girlfriend, Liuying, no longer had a gentle and lovely expression, but instead had seductive eyes.

"Of course... it's about fighting to survive."

Liu Ying came to Qiong's side, hugged him, breathed warm air into his ear, and said what she had been waiting for.

"You're not actually a firework in disguise, are you?"

Qiong couldn't help but shudder. He really hadn't expected that the firefly's desire for starlight was so strong. It would seize any opportunity to fight for its life. If he didn't believe in Ruan Mei's abilities, he would have even suspected that this was a side effect of the drug, since one of the ingredients was the breeding insect.

"Huh, what do you think?"

Firefly revealed a proud little expression, then gently bit Sora's lip before kissing her seriously. This kind of rhythm was definitely something Hanabi couldn't have known; it must have been his lovely wife.

Qiong didn't emerge from the inn until nightfall on the Immortal Boat. Liu Ying had already fallen asleep, looking completely content. For her, every second spent with Qiong was joyful, especially when it was something as intimate as that, which brought pleasure to both of them.

Thinking of his unlucky sister-in-law, Qiong quickened his pace and returned to Yu Kong's house to see if she had sobered up. When he got home, Fei Xiao was already sitting on the sofa eating the snacks he had bought earlier.

"Fei, you're finally awake."

"What a strange name."

When Fei Xiao heard Qiong call him that, he felt goosebumps and quickly rubbed his arms and complained.

Do you remember what happened after you got drunk?

Qiong showed no remorse whatsoever, as if he wasn't the one who had assaulted Feixiao before. Seeing that he didn't reveal any flaws, Feixiao didn't expose him either.

"Can not remember."

"You've already blacked out, and you still want to drink all the time. You're lucky you met me. If you got drunk in front of other men, wouldn't you be considered a virgin?"

Qiong lectured Feixiao with a righteous expression, while Feixiao looked at him as if he were an idiot. This guy really knew how to play the victim first; it was clearly because he met Qiong that Feixiao lost his virginity.

"Does my brother-in-law think an ordinary man could get close to me? Especially when I'm drunk," Fei Xiao retorted.

"Okay, you're the best."

Qiong pondered Feixiao's reaction after getting drunk for a while. He figured Feixiao would probably wipe out everything around him, and when he went crazy, even Jingyuan was afraid. It was only because he had a few very capable women around him that Feixiao was kept in check; otherwise, he would be lying in the hospital right now.

After bickering for a while, Yu Kong took Qing Ni home. Seeing Qiong and Fei Xiao getting along well, Yu Kong smiled.

"Sister Yukong is back. Nothing happened today, right?"

Feixiao remained as close to Yukong as ever, and upon seeing her return, she sidled up to her. When there was no official business, they interacted as casually as ordinary sisters, but unfortunately, this only lasted for a short time.

"Nothing strange about it, except that an unregistered company transport ship has arrived," Yu Kong said.

"It's already strange that Sister Yu Kong singled it out."

"They originally had no intention of coming to the Immortal Ship. They were attacked by the Bu Liren fleet while passing through this star field. They temporarily took refuge on our Immortal Ship. The Immortal Ship has an alliance with the company, so of course it will not abandon friendly ships. However, they have not yet received permission to disembark, so they do not intend to disembark. They just want to leave as soon as possible to deliver goods."

Yu Kong explained the incident in detail. It was actually similar to encountering space pirates, except that Bu Liren was too powerful and acted too recklessly, disregarding even the company's military deterrence and destroying the company's escort fleet.

Chapter 270 Bad News

"An attack by Bu Liren? This is not a good sign."

Fei Xiao frowned and said that her Bu Liren bloodline sensed a conspiracy at this moment, but she couldn't figure out where the conspiracy was, so she could only proceed with caution.

Yu Kong could tell from Fei Xiao's expression that she had something on her mind. She knew her silly younger sister very well. Apart from being a military genius, she was actually quite slow-witted in other matters.

"Feixiao, you've been on the Immortal Ship for a few days now, and I haven't asked you why you came here. But why have you only contacted me and not met with General Jingyuan and General Huaiyan? From the perspective of the captain, I have nothing to ask, but as a friend, I still want to know some things. If it involves secrets, then forget it."

Yu Kong asked Fei Xiao the crucial question she hadn't asked before, giving both of them some time to process things, since Fei Xiao wasn't a general and she wasn't a captain when they last met.

"I trust Sister Yukong's character. I'll answer your questions, just remember to keep it a secret."

Fei Xiao laughed heartily, not taking the secrecy seriously at all. This was also the difference between Yu Kong and Jing Yuan in her heart. If it were Jing Yuan here, Fei Xiao would have directly invited him for a drink.

"What about me? I'm not human."

Qiong pointed to himself and said that he had no interest in these trivial matters of the Immortal Ship. He came to the Immortal Ship to do three things: see his wife, meet his new wife, and marry his wife.

"If brother-in-law leaks the secret, he can forget about sleeping with Sister Yu Kong in the future."

Feixiao smiled and said, clearly not treating Qiong as an outsider. Qiong was quite touched by Feixiao's trust in her. This trust should come from three parties: the reputation of the Starry Sky Train, the kindness shown to the Immortal Ship, and the feelings for Yukong.

"You're so outspoken, what are you saying?"

Yu Kong glared at Fei Xiao and said, "Although Fei Xiao is not young anymore, and can be considered middle-aged among fox people, she is still unmarried. She is ashamed to talk about these things all day long."

"Actually, I came here on the orders of Marshal Xianzhou to investigate General Jingyuan."

Feixiao dropped a bombshell, and Qiong scratched his head. It was the first time he had ever heard of a general having the rank of marshal. He had learned something completely useless.

"Is the Marshal dissatisfied with General Jingyuan?"

Yu Kong asked in surprise, "The marshal is naturally the person in charge of the entire Immortal Ship. His power is not comparable to that of one or two generals. He can even replace a general at any time. Even Yu Kong has never seen him in person."

"No, it's mainly because the rebirth of Jianmu scared those old fogies up there. They pressured the Marshal to send me over to investigate. The report said that Luofu was being targeted by the Great Lord of Annihilation, but no one was found, neither alive nor dead. The only thing that happened was the rebirth of Jianmu. Naturally, some people suspected that General Jingyuan wanted to use Jianmu for something, and then they blamed it all on the Great Lord of Annihilation."

Feixiao continued.

"How could the general do such a thing!"

Yu Kong was very upset about the fact that someone she respected was being suspected. She could only talk about it at home; if they were outside, she would definitely speak up for Jing Yuan.

"I also think it's impossible, but the older you get in the martial arts world, the more timid you become. No one can afford to lose another immortal ship, so we must find out even the smallest possibility."

Feixiao understood Yukong's feelings, and she explained why things had turned out this way. Yukong was a calm person and realized that there was indeed no other way. With such a big incident, even if Jingyuan hadn't betrayed the Immortal Ship, he would still be guilty of lax supervision. For example, why did your ship have an accident out of so many Immortal Ships? Why did the Great Lord of Annihilation target you? Why did the Medicine King's Secret Teachings cause trouble in your area? You should look for your own problems.

"However, now that these people involved in the Starry Sky Train are here, we have witnesses. With the reputation of the Starry Sky Train, proving General Jing Yuan's innocence is not difficult. This is not my main purpose for coming here."

Feixiao glanced at Qiong and said, "Before, the people from the Starry Sky Train weren't here, so it was difficult to investigate without a third-party witness. But now it's different. Their return is a help to Jingyuan." Qiong then showed a look of sudden realization. No wonder Jingyuan personally invited them to the appointment via projection. He truly deserves to be called the wise general of the Immortal Ship.

"I came here to visit Hure."

Feixiao uttered a strange name that Qiong had never heard of before, and even Yukong, a local, had to think for a while before remembering who it was.

"Hu Lei... you mean that Hu Lei? That Bu Liren warrior? The Hu Lei that has been imprisoned in the Luofu Prison for over seven hundred years? I don't know much about it. It was already imprisoned in the Prison before I was born. Yao Qing sends people to visit it once every hundred years, right?"

Yu Kong revealed some information about Hu Lei. After learning that it was a prisoner, Qiong lost interest. Could it possibly escape from prison?

"The fox people and the immortal ship swore an oath to jointly punish the evil creature. Besides liberating their compatriots, they also sought justice. That wolf-toothed beast should be imprisoned in the Netherworld Prison forever. Given the situation in Luofu, Yaoqing is quite worried about Hu Lei's imprisonment. The routine visits once every hundred years are no longer enough to put the old folks' minds at ease."

When Feixiao said "old guy," she meant the old fox-man. This sentence also implicated Yukong, who then glanced at her. Feixiao guiltily avoided her gaze.

"I was sent here to appease those old guys."

"It's all bad news," Yu Kong said helplessly.

"Not entirely. At least many things aren't as bad as you think. The target you asked me to find has already made some progress."

Feixiao said with a smile. Upon hearing this, Yukong's expression immediately brightened, and he also grasped Qiong's hand, indicating that he should listen carefully.

"Following the route you provided, the Qingqiu Army found the wreckage of the Minghuo Merchant Guild's ship. Unfortunately, there was no cargo inside, nor were there any survivors."

Feixiao spoke of what Yukong cared about most, and Qiong understood why Yukong was so serious. The Minghuo Merchant Guild was a term far removed from him, but Qiong had not forgotten the first beautiful fox-person he met on the Immortal Ship, whose self-introduction included the Minghuo Merchant Guild.

Fei Xiao's words undoubtedly announced bad news: the wreckage of the ship Ting Yun was on had been found, but it was full of dead people. Yu Kong was devastated upon hearing this and threw herself into Qiong's arms, bursting into tears. Qiong's expression was also terrible, so gloomy that Fei Xiao was stunned. She didn't understand why Qiong was acting this way. If she was just feeling sorry for Yu Kong and had some empathy, shouldn't she be comforting him?

Chapter 271 That's my wife!

"However, people had already been to the scene before we found the crash site."

Feixiao had previously delivered bad news, but now she brought good news. However, she said that no choice had been given beforehand, making Yukong feel that there was only bad news.

"Is it our people, or our company?"

Yu Kong rekindled her hope, wiped away her tears, and asked Fei Xiao. She knew that Fei Xiao wouldn't bring it up unless it was something meaningful for the rescue. This likely meant that someone had rescued Ting Yun before.

"Neither. Sister Yukong, do you know Ruan Mei?"

Feixiao uttered a name that Qiong knew all too well, but Yukong didn't know the relationship between Qiong and Ruan Mei, so he could only search for the name from his memory.

Erjiu VII Liu Jiu Yi Ba Liu Yue - "The 81st seat of the Genius Club?"

"Well, that's her."

"You mean she saved Tingyun?"

Yu Kong's eyes shone with hope; she knew that if the Genius Club intervened, Ting Yun's chances of survival would be very high.

"That's not the case. Someone else went to save Tingyun, and she may be in Ruan Mei's hands now."

Fei Xiao shook his head and gave an uncertain piece of information. Although he wasn't 100% certain, it was already quite remarkable that he had learned this much.

Yu Kong looked somewhat melancholy. She was happy that Ting Yun might actually be rescued, but sad that she seemed unable to ask Ruan Mei for help. A genius wouldn't rescue someone for no reason; heaven knows what Ruan Mei was planning.

"How could this be in Ruan Mei's hands? How could this happen? I was so close to her, and I didn't even know..."

Qiong was completely stunned. When Feixiao said that Tingyun was in Ruan Mei's hands, he was already speechless with surprise. Only now did he come to his senses. Yukong and Feixiao also noticed that his emotions were not right and couldn't help but worry.

"Brother-in-law, what's wrong? Are you involved in this matter?"

Feixiao asked curiously. She didn't know about the relationship between Tingyun and Qiong. Yukong hadn't mentioned it before either. After all, it was hard to say whether sleeping with the Great Lord Juemie for several days would be good for the Immortal Boat or for Qiong to be cheated out of money and sex.

“Nguyen Mai is my wife.”

Qiong explained it in a more Xianzhou-like way, because Ruan Mei also had a deep connection with Xianzhou, so calling her a lady was not wrong at all.

"Ah, um, it seems this has hit you hard; you're even hallucinating."

Yu Kong murmured and looked at Qiong with worried eyes. Fei Xiao and Yu Kong had the same idea; both of them thought that Qiong had lost her mind to say such a thing.

"It's not a hallucination, she really is my wife!"

Qiong said excitedly. Although he felt that it was a dream come true to marry a wife like Ruan Mei, not to mention the Great Black Tower behind her, it was indeed true.

“Brother-in-law, even if someone like Ms. Ruan Mei came to Xianzhou, I would still have to treat her with utmost respect. If you say such things and anger her, you might not even know how you died.”

Fei Xiao advised, "It's fine to say these things at home, but I'm afraid he might actually say the same thing to Ruan Mei someday."

“I have no illusions. She really is my wife, and we have children.”

Qiong repeatedly said that Ruan Mei was his wife. Seeing him like this, Yu Kong couldn't bear it and hugged him, gently patting his back.

"Oh no, the symptoms have worsened. Should I carry him to the Dragon Girl's place to take a look?"

Fei Xiao covered her face, unable to bear looking at Qiong's dazed state. Her brother-in-law, who had been perfectly fine, had suddenly gone mad, and she had no idea why.

"Okay, okay, you don't believe me? I'll send a message to find out right now."

Qiong also has a temper. She immediately took out her phone and sent a message to Ruan Mei in her friend list. However, after waiting for a while, the system prompted that the message had not been sent and the recipient was not in the service area.

Qiong, unwilling to give up, dialed the communication number on Ruan Mei's private spaceship, but the response was still that it was out of service area, probably because the distance was too far.

Did she answer the phone?

Feixiao looked at Qiong with curious eyes and asked, but the gaze stung Qiong. It seemed that he really couldn't prove that his wife was his wife now.

Qiong sent another message to the elders on the Star Train. If nothing unexpected happened, they should be together. However, they were not in the service area again. Qiong wondered which ancient star field they had gone to dig up graves.

After thinking for a moment, Qiong called the Great Black Tower again. Of course, he had his wife's phone number, and through magic circuits and other things he couldn't understand at all, he could contact her anytime, even if they lived on the edge of the galaxy.

"This is automated telephone avatar 9527. Who are you looking for?"

The voice of the Black Tower doll came through the phone. After getting to know the Big Black Tower, Qiong realized that the Little Black Tower's voice was just like hers when she was a child. It was sweet and very cute, and hearing the voice made her feel much better.

"Of course we should look for the Great Black Tower. She's probably the only living person in Black Tower City."

Qiong couldn't help but complain, "Given the situation in Black Tower City, did he call there to chat with the puppet?"

"Press 1 to leave a voice message, or press 2 to speak to a live agent."

The Black Tower puppet spoke in a monotone tone. Qiong thought for a moment before she understood what "transformation into human" meant. Only the Great Black Tower in Black Tower City was human!

"2."

Qiong pressed a number key, and there was silence on the other end of the phone. After a few seconds, the arrogant yet confident voice of the Great Black Tower came through the phone.

"Hey, what are you calling me for at this hour? Do you want to help this genius test a simulated universe?"
