Chapter 1178 Mingxiao Martial Arts Competition Tests Skills (Part 2) 3
The celestial ship was also divided into normal celestial beings and those who chose the Medicine King's Secret Teachings... except that those on the celestial ship chose to suppress their demonic yin bodies far more than those who chose the Medicine King's Secret Teachings, while the fox people's homeland was the opposite.
However, Ling Sha certainly has a headache. He came to take over such a mess as the Pill Refining Department, only to find so quickly that someone else has gotten involved in even more troublesome matters before the department has even finished cleaning up.
March 7th: Sigh! It was all marinated in the secret recipe of the Medicine King before... It's normal that it can't be cleaned off completely in a short time.
Paimon: I feel like the Immortal Boat is also...
When Ling Sha was sorting through the prescriptions they (the secret recipes of the Medicine King) used, he discovered one of them, the "Returning Dust and Preserving Form Pill".
That medicine was specifically for spies to suppress the signs of demonic possession and maintain their normal appearance. Compared to the medicine that Bu Li had inside the human body, although the properties and ingredients were different, the principle was the same.
Jing Yuan thought that since ancient times, the Bu Li people had always pursued a stronger physical body and regarded the fox people as weak.
Now, in order to rescue the leader, they are even willing to disguise themselves as fox-people, which further confirms that their determination is truly great.
If all the Bu Li spies had taken disguise drugs, Ling Sha suggested starting the investigation along that line—she had noted the properties of the drugs the Bu Li people had taken in the incense burner, and by following the scent of the drugs, they should be able to identify the traces left by the Bu Li people.
March 7: So it's still the same group behind the scenes, but didn't we already know it was Huanlong?
Doctor: No, it was Huanlong's collaborators, or rather, the group still lurking inside the Immortal Ship, who collaborated with Huanlong to place her, Xinghe, and Buliren into the Immortal Ship.
Paimon: That's awful! Don't let everyone catch you doing this!
Doctor: ...Actually, the identities of these people have already been exposed, haven't they? They've been hiding their identities...
March 7: Huh?
Red King: Speaking of which, we have to think about which Immortal Boat people have been constantly being teased by the host.
Qiong: Aha, Black Swan, Great Sage
Aha: ???
Black Swan: ...
Unable to refute for a moment
How did the third one even get in?!
Sino: Perhaps because he's a sage? After all, sages are well-suited to be teachers.
Bu Liren seems to be having a hard time, so he can't wait to find Hu Lei to be his backer?
However, this powerful figure has been imprisoned for so many years and probably hasn't made any progress, while the person who arrested him, Jing Liu, is still alive and kicking... probably even stronger than before.
The most outrageous thing is that even if Jingliu was strong back then, he couldn't be stronger than the Commander, right? Now, with three Commanders on the Immortal Ship, what is Bu Liren thinking? Does he think that because the Commanders are powerful, they won't notice these little bugs?
Maybe
Along the way, they discovered traces left by Hu Lei. Ling Sha asked Jing Yuan curiously about Hu Lei.
Jing Yuan, who had clashed with Hu Lei, told her that for the Alliance, Bu Liren was always the most troublesome enemy, and Hu Lei was a monster that even Bu Liren himself feared.
Hu Lei single-handedly united numerous hunting groups, repeatedly pushing the Alliance army into perilous situations. Seven hundred years ago, he followed Jing Liu on his expedition and witnessed firsthand the devastation on the battlefield after Hu Lei's arrival.
If the former Sword Master hadn't used Frostblade to block Thunder's movements, the outcome would still be uncertain.
At the end of that great battle, only a handful of men remained in the ranks, and all that remained of them was a sea of crimson.
Doctor: When I heard General Jingyuan say that even Bu Liren himself feared Hu Lei, I finally understood.
Paimon: Huh?
Traveler: Now I understand why Bu Liren didn't rescue Hu Lei before Huanlong caused trouble?
I understand, you don't really want to save him, right?
Hu Lei sounds really powerful. Isn't he more powerful than Jing Yuan?
March 7th: Are you from Buliren? You're comparing a seven-hundred-year-old Jingyuan to Hulei?
LOL, Jing Yuan from 700 years ago was probably not much different from Yan Qing now, right?
Yanqing: Uh…
Admin Q: How can you be so sure that Yanqing can't beat Hulei?
Yanqing: ? ? ?
Yun Li: ...Seriously? We're young, not stupid—well, Yan Qing does seem to be good at challenging strong opponents.
Bai Heng: But from Mirror Flow, Blade and Dan Heng... to Thunder Cry?
Admin Q: He even fought against Jingliu!
Mirror Flow; ...Don't bully little brother Yanqing.
March 7: Although the three of them are very powerful, they didn't go all out... Hu Lei definitely won't hold back, right?
Danheng: He really doesn't.
Yun Li: Sigh, Yan Qing, you've really had a tough time.
March 7th: Master Yanqing, you've worked hard.
Yanqing: ...
Alas, General Jingyuan's few words revealed the terror of Hu Lei. The only consolation is that after seven hundred years of imprisonment, his strength is likely not as formidable as it once was.
Ling Sha was puzzled. Since Hu Lei was so terrifying, why wasn't he executed after subduing the beast? Instead, he was simply imprisoned.
The judges of the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship where she had previously been would throw the monstrous creatures, who were so sinful yet indestructible, into the flames of calamity to be burned.
The so-called 'immortality' is just a title; is there anything truly immortal in this world? Therefore, Ling Sha doesn't understand why Luo Fu suppressed this cancer for so long, leading to the current unmanageable situation.
Speaking of this, she recalled her teacher, who said that the people of Luofu were kind-hearted and compassionate. Even when it came to the tumor parasitizing the Dan Ding Si, they were reluctant to cut off the flesh to treat the poison, but instead sent the doctor who wanted to save him to the Zhu Ming Immortal Boat.
General Jingyuan could tell that Lingsha harbored resentment towards him, but he was willing to explain the reason for Hulei's imprisonment. However, further investigation was needed at the moment, so he spoke as they walked.
Paimon: Huh? Didn't they say they'd only imprison someone if they couldn't kill them?
Doctor: Hmm... Well, it's all in space now, so there must be quite a few stars, right? If we're really in a hurry, throwing it into a star isn't out of the question, is it? It's just that someone might have to keep an eye on it the whole time, otherwise, it might get away and cause some trouble.
Red King: Not necessarily. Their immortal ships are made up of individual cave heavens. Maybe they can just lock a sun inside a cave heaven and then throw Hu Lei in.
March 7th: Is that really true?
Fujimaru Ritsuka: According to Reisa-san, it is indeed possible... So, the Alliance probably has its own reasons for not doing so, right?
Su Chang: Hmm? Isn't "kind-hearted and benevolent" a good phrase? ...But why does it seem a bit inappropriate here?
Gui Naifen: That's weird and sarcastic!
Just like how saints, holy mothers, holy fathers, and holy daughters were all positive terms in the past, but now some people use them to say things with... well... negative connotations.
Yanqing: Miss Lingsha is referring to her teacher, right? She mentioned him before at the Alchemy Division.
Fu Xuan: The general has his reasons for doing this, so don't worry.
General Jingyuan looked quite helpless.
It's probably not something you can happily recount from the past.
They continued their investigation into the Bu Li people disguised as Immortal Ship people and the remains of escaped prisoners. During this time, they mentioned the punishment of Hu Lei, suggesting that throwing the prisoners into a star would be a way to end the problem once and for all, but unfortunately the fox people did not agree.
Hu Lei caused great harm to the fox people, who cursed his name day and night, even using it to frighten children into crying at night, and were unwilling to let him die a quick death.
The reason why Hu Lei was not imprisoned by Yao Qing, who was mostly composed of fox-people, but instead imprisoned on Luofu, was not because Ling Sha believed it was the glory of the Luofu Sword Master.
Before they could finish speaking, they encountered the company's wolf-headed mech again. The Industrial Construction Division and the Pill Refining Division jointly conducted an inspection and found that the machine's components used specially processed bio-organic tissue.
It is said that the Knowledge Society has been researching the biological characteristics of the immortal species, hoping to obtain results that can be used for medical or combat purposes, but due to its superficial relationship with the Alliance, it dares not go too far.
Doctor: Speaking of which, Yunli and Sanyueqi learned new knowledge from Huaiyan, and Yanqing probably learned it from Feixiao... Hmm... Lingsha is learning new knowledge from Jingyuan here?
March 7th: Sigh! 'I'm about to take over Master Yanqing's place in the martial arts competition, Qiong is still watching the excitement over there, and Danheng is here as a quiet spectator...
Red King: 'Only silence'
Qiong: 'Only silence'
Aha: Hahaha~ A classic remake~ 'Only Silence'
Paimon: Poof~
Dan Heng:......
Hilarious! That unlucky guy, Bu Liren, was killed before he could even revert to his original form and unleash his full power.
That's really bad luck.
Paimon: Although it's clear that those who betrayed the Immortal Ship hold high positions of power, they're the only high-ranking people we know in the Immortal Ship... and none of them are bad people...
March 7th: Indeed, to find out who did it, we'd need to know the heads of each department in the Immortal Ship...
Qingque: Actually, many people have already guessed it, but they just don't say it. After all, some things aren't that we don't know, but that it's not easy to say...
This guy is so unlucky. He was only supposed to be in jail, but now that he's out, he's finished...
Su Chang: You mean Uncle Mu is now with a Bu Li person who's been starving for seven hundred years...?
Jiaoqiu: ...Don't say anymore, I'm scared.
Makizawa: If we really have to visit Hulei after that…
General Feixiao: Take me with you.
Pepper Hill: That's definitely a good idea...
Huh? Is it the fox-people who won't agree to kill Hu Lei?
I see. However, I still think a dead enemy is a good enemy. Otherwise, while it might be satisfying, things could get complicated if something unexpected happens, like in the video.
March 7: So it wasn't because Jingliu defeated Hulei and then imprisoned Luofu from the beginning?
Ling Sha: It seems there's a deeper meaning behind this.
Yun Li: Sigh, I still don't understand.
This erudite society is also... researching everything.
Admin Q: What do you guys know? Is technological progress even a big deal? Besides, it's just a bio-mechanical hybrid mech, so what if… so what if Rupert is overjoyed!
Just...wait a minute? What did you say?
Screw Gumm: Emperor Rupert.
Administrator Q: Yes, yes, it's Rupert. Isn't it common knowledge that Rupert III is on his way?
Please, host, stop telling ghost stories, especially for omnics—these are incredibly scary ghost stories…
