"My benefactor!"

Her voice sounded like a coquettish tone mixed with a hint of heartache.

She was being sarcastic!

When she said "the young lady was impolite before," she was actually implying that Qiong had teased her and that her behavior was somewhat impolite.

As a result, Qiong took it all as gospel.

After two system periods, following the steps of Qiong using Feather Crossing Dust to suppress the will to destroy and Tingyun retrieving the memory fragments.

She easily pieced together the memory puzzle, and naturally remembered everything.

Before this incident, she and Qiong were complete strangers, not a loving couple at all...

Then, recalling the journey of retrieving the memory fragments, he realized how much he had attached himself to Qiong.

It's like the 'childish' behavior of a fox spirit in the throes of new love, wanting to be by her lover's side every second, and the words that slipped out when Ms. Ruan Mei asked her about fusing ancient beast genes...

Even with Tingyun's clever and perceptive nature, she couldn't help but feel a wave of embarrassment and shame after regaining her memories.

Of course, Tingyun did not mean to blame Qiong.

After all, she was able to escape the destructive flames that scorched her soul, regain her senses from her dazed state, and understand everything that had happened to her, all thanks to Qiong.

Ms. Ruan Mei helped her because of Qiong; this was no ordinary act of saving a life!

With the help of a genius and the genes of an ancient beast, Tingyun naturally knew the value of the ancient beast, and added that he had gone to great lengths to help him gather his consciousness...

Compared to all the great kindness shown to us, a few impolite acts are utterly insignificant.

"Congratulations on your initial victory; that's a good start."

The sudden sound made Tingyun's embarrassment fade.

"From now on, survival and destruction will no longer be a choice for you; they will grow on the same path."

Ruan Mei slowly walked out.

She had no interest in such a trivial matter as helping Tingyun gather the fragments of his memory. After their previous conversation, Ruan Mei left Tingyun's memory space to search for information about the ancient beast that matched his memory.

After that, Qiong follows Tingyun through one memory space after another, from Tingyun's childhood to adolescence.

The two are now in the final and newest memory space, inside Ruan Mei's research ship.

"Thank you, Ms. Ruan Mei."

With a slight bow, Tingyun exhaled softly and turned to look at the medical pod to the side, where a naked fox-girl lay in a bluish-green medical solution.

That was her physical condition in reality.

"I told you, if you want to thank someone, just thank your darling."

Ruan Mei spoke in a gentle and graceful tone.

Despite her humble demeanor, Tingyun, who had traveled extensively throughout the Milky Way, frequently dealing with merchants and dealing with countless people, could sense the coldness beneath Ms. Ruan Mei's calm exterior.

Especially in her mental space, she instinctively felt a sense of fear.

"This humble woman knows of my benefactor's..."

Although Ruan Mei said that, Ting Yun, who understood social etiquette, still had to say a few polite words. However, she stopped herself before she could finish speaking because she glanced at Qiong.

The gray-haired youth was standing in front of the medical pod, carefully examining his naked 'self' inside with an appreciative gaze.

"It's a pity that I can't use a camera in the memory space, otherwise I could take a couple of photos as souvenirs."

The blush that had just faded from Ting Yun's face returned slightly. Her lips twitched, but in the end, she didn't stop Qiong from admiring her.

There's no difference between taking a look once and taking two looks...

Weird!

"My benefactor, you have worked so hard to help me regain my memories. You must be tired. Let me help you relieve your fatigue."

Tingyun raised her fair arm and pulled Qiong away from her body, letting his head rest against her chest, and gently massaged the acupoints on Qiong's head.

The massage in the mental space didn't seem to have much effect, but Qiong still enjoyed leaning against the slime. It was a little smaller than the big duck, about the same size as the Star Core Essence, and within the standard size range.

The tender flesh behind her ear, warmed by the rising temperature, told Qiong that this fox lady was not as open and bold as she appeared.

Just as Qiong was about to make a joke, he sensed that Tingyun's mood suddenly dropped.

"My benefactor, how are the others in the Minghuo caravan doing?"

Only a small portion of them returned to the Immortal Ship.

Qiong answered truthfully.

"I see."

The massage hands slowed down, Tingyun pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, and looked downcast and sad.

"The Great Lord of Annihilation has now replaced me and infiltrated the Immortal Ship. Please trouble my benefactor to convey this message to the General, and warn him against the chaos that Illusionary Clouds may bring to Luofu."

"Although I am just a lowly ferryman, with a humble position and little influence, I can still guarantee that Luofu will reward me handsomely afterward."

After regaining all her memories, Tingyun realized that the memories Qiong had shared with her about their first meeting were actually Huanlong's experiences after taking over her identity and returning to the Immortal Ship.

Tingyun had great confidence in the Immortal Boat and the General, but she had also heard about Huanlong's deeds in plunging over a hundred worlds into chaos and ultimately being defeated by the antimatter legion.

It would be a lie to say she wasn't anxious or worried, as her friends and family were all in Xianzhou.

"No problem, no problem."

Regarding the capture of Kafka, setting aside the facts, Jing Yuan owed Xing Qiong a small favor by telling him about Huan Long's information, a favor that Xian Zhou now greatly owes.

"As for Huanlong... don't worry, I will take good care of 'my lovely Miss Tingyun'."

Qiong had already asked Ruan Mei to prepare some experimental waste, fragments formed from energy aggregation. He compared Suiyang to humans, saying that the energy waste was like a ball of dung.

Pack them all up and take them back with Huanlong!

Qiong rubbed his hands together, preparing to personally prepare authentic Nine-Turned Intestines for Huanlong.

The gray-haired youth's chuckle made Tingyun's expression subtle.

"Ruan Mei, what should we do with Ting Yun now?"

Qiong looked at the expert doctor with great interest, showing meticulous care for Tingyun. This was truly remarkable!

"Although she has regained consciousness, we cannot wake her up and restore her awareness yet, otherwise she will suffer unbearable pain."

Ruan Mei explained softly.

The destructive power seeped into my very bones, and my body cells were constantly in a state of destruction and reorganization, which was equivalent to experiencing someone using a knife to cut my body into pieces and then piecing it back together every moment.

The accumulated pain was far beyond what the mind of an ordinary intelligent being could endure, and they would instantly faint.

"Then you should just stay put and sleep in the mental space until the transformation is complete."

Upon hearing Ruan Mei's explanation, Qiong clicked his tongue.

That sounds painful!

"Ok."

Tingyun obediently agreed.

Qiong nodded.

In that case, there shouldn't be any major problems on Tingyun's side, and he should head back to Luofu.

"We'll be going now, bye-bye~"

Qiong waved goodbye to Tingyun and prepared to leave the mental space with Ruanmei.

"Wait, benefactor."

Just a second before Qiong turned to leave, Tingyun called out to him, causing Qiong to turn around and look back with a slightly puzzled expression.

"I have something else I'd like to say to you."

The fox-woman with her long tail swayed took a few steps forward, bringing the two of them within arm's reach.

"Through my benefactor's memories, I was able to learn the whole story. I have to admire the exquisite disguise of that illusory figure. His actions were exactly the same as mine. It was more like he lived for me for a few days than I was disguised."

"Just like another version of myself in this world, she deceived everyone, but only my benefactor had the discerning eye to see through everything."

Tingyun chuckled softly, looking up at the sky with eyes as clear as a lake.

It has been quite some time since 'Tingyun' returned to the Immortal Ship. Whether it is her performance at the Heavenly Ship Bureau or in front of acquaintances, even Tingyun herself cannot find fault with her. Unexpectedly, Qiong actually noticed that 'Tingyun' has a problem.

This gave Tingyun a strange sense of joy; finally, someone had figured out that it wasn't her!

"I regret missing my 'first encounter' with my benefactor, but the subsequent developments are exactly as if I were there, which makes Tingyun see a possibility..."

"That illusion stole my life."

Tingyun's tone was tinged with resentment, and she did not use the self-reference "little woman" for the second time.

After finishing speaking, he remained silent for a moment, then spoke again:

"But, fortunately, my benefactor is here, and has returned this memory of my life to me in another way."

Although Huanlong is still impersonating her on the Immortal Boat, the loss without knowing anything is a completely different situation from fighting against fate after knowing everything.

Tingyun gazed at the sky, her gratitude so overwhelming that it stirred up waves in her eyes, scattering the reflected light.

"My benefactor, thank you."

As she spoke softly, Tingyun stretched out her fair, slender arm and wrapped it around Qiong's neck. With a slight effort, she leaned forward and kissed Qiong's moist, cherry-like lips.

After the long kiss, Tingyun took a step back, a smile that seemed to never fade on her face.

"This is a small token of my gratitude to my benefactor, presented in advance."

Tingyun's action was somewhat sudden. Qiong blinked and laughed, "Just a little bit? Well, I'm really looking forward to the big thank-you gift later!"

Tingyun blushed slightly and looked away.

“My benefactor, it’s time to go back. Don’t let this humble woman delay important matters.”

The fox-girl lifted the hem of her skirt, bowed slightly, and smiled:

"I wish you a safe and successful journey."

Chapter 243 Li Sushang: I'm here to help you!

Standing at the entrance of Luofu Commercial Street, Li Sushang looked up and read aloud the seal script characters carved above the vermilion stone archway:

"Yunjin City..."

As for why she could understand the text even though she didn't recognize it, Yuehen had already explained it to her.

Li Sushang lowered her gaze and stared straight ahead.

A vermilion archway hangs high with a golden plaque, and copper bells on the eaves sway gently in the wind. Shops line both sides, their gilded plaques gleaming brightly.

"Wow, it's so lively! This market is much bigger than the one in the northern desert!"

In her memory, even on holidays and festivals when everyone was celebrating, she rarely saw a scene as magnificent as the one before her.

Suddenly, a silver bell jingled beneath her feet. Li Sushang looked down and saw two strangely shaped 'dogs' carrying packages past, startling her so much that she took a half-step back.

"This is... a mechanical beast?"

"Yes, these are ingenious creations of Luofu, with a wide range of uses and diverse appearances. Those two you just saw probably deliver food."

The Qiongyi, which also has functions such as official map navigation and traffic lights, malfunctioned, and Luosha, Danheng, and Li Sushang were sent to Yunjin City on the outbound star raft.

Since the area is unfamiliar to people, it's theoretically best for them to act together.

However, Danheng was definitely going to find the group to join, so he said goodbye and left soon after.

Moonhen wasn't sure if Silver Wolf's blocking of Danheng's phone and Qiongyi was still working, but in any case, Danheng wouldn't be in any danger.

She knew that Danheng possessed hidden power, a hidden dragon among the waves.

Rakshasa also said he had business collaborations to discuss and then took his leave.

Yuehen doubted his story, but directly following him would require deceiving Li Sushang. After thinking it over, she decided to help Li Sushang get to know the Immortal Boat better first.
