Tree King: What? I've become the Abundant Pharmacist?

Chapter 195 March 7: Here we go again?

"Sigh, if you had handed the Star Core Hunter over to me earlier, I wouldn't have this problem now." Fu Xuan's tone was full of complaints.

"What are you thinking?" Suddenly, something occurred to her. "Jingyuan! Could it be... that you deliberately let them escape?!"

"Me? How could I possibly be as prescient as Fu Qing? I do bear responsibility for the Yunqi Army's inadequate guard duty," Jing Yuan retorted.

"Hmph, I understand. The affairs on the immortal ship are numerous and complicated, so it's inevitable that you're not energetic enough. If it weren't for me supporting you down here..." Fu Xuan snorted coldly.

As she spoke, she looked at Jing Yuan and suddenly had a wicked thought.

"Speaking of which, at the next 'Six Emperors' council meeting, shouldn't you fulfill your promise to recommend me as the successor to the general...?"

"Okay, okay, I understand. I have other important matters to attend to. From now on, I'll leave everything to the 'exceptionally gifted' Fu Qing." Although Jing Yuan agreed, his tone was full of perfunctory attitude.

"You're smart enough to leave." Fu Xuan put his hands on his hips, and then the virtual image disappeared.

After Fu Xuan left, Jing Yuan sighed.

"Alas, the troubles on the fairy boat, the documents on the desk, and the weeds in the flower bed—these are the only three things that I can't get rid of no matter how hard I try."

“General, everyone knows that Fu Taibu wants to take your place,” a young man beside him said.

"Fu Qing's matter is indeed troublesome, but the trouble lies with other things."

"The matter of the star core isn't really that troublesome. If the person escapes, we can just bring them back. General, just give the order, and I, Yanqing, will immediately solve your problem." Yanqing patted his chest and volunteered.

“I know you are eager to do something and accomplish something, but now is not the time. If you want to obtain the title of ‘Sword Master,’ you must not act rashly, especially not engage in armed combat with serious criminals,” Jing Yuan advised.

"Does the general really think I would lose to that 'Blade'?" Yanqing asked anxiously.

“No, you still haven’t grasped the crux of the matter.” Jing Yuan’s eyes sharpened.

"The key point is actually the Star Train."

"If they really have something going on with the Star Core Hunters, that would be a real problem."

"You mean that woman named Eve?" Yanqing asked.

“Yes, the biggest variable.” Jing Yuan picked up the teacup on the desk and took a sip.

"This game of chess is now at a stalemate. Whether it's a dead end or a living game depends on Miss Eve."

"Furthermore, the matter of the star core remains a major mystery."

"How did it manage to deceive people, bypass the verification of the Imperial Shipyard and the deduction of the Imperial Divination Bureau, and where was it placed?"

"Sigh, it's all trouble..." Jing Yuan sighed helplessly.

"I think the fastest way is to capture both Star Core Hunters and send them to Fu Taibu for interrogation," Yanqing said anxiously.

Jing Yuan turned his back and said earnestly, "I want you to be patient, Yanqing. The governance of the Immortal Boat is different from swordsmanship. It can only be accomplished by taking things slowly."

"Once the overall situation is settled, you will have your chance to prove yourself."

"You are the person I trust most. There are some things I can only do with peace of mind when entrusted to you. Yanqing, there's a task for me..."

"Yanqing? Yanqing?"

Jing Yuan immediately turned around, only to find that Yan Qing was no longer there.

"Sigh, this child." Jing Yuan sighed helplessly.

"Well, it's my fault too. A young man staying home too long is bound to cause trouble. 'A casket long kept full of water, when will it be ready to be tested?'... Hehe..."

"However, I'm afraid the setbacks he'll face this time will outweigh his initial arrogance. I just hope he doesn't get completely discouraged."

Sichen Palace.

Just as the train crew was waiting, a familiar voice suddenly came.

"My benefactors, it's been a long time!"

"It seems that I have a deep connection with my benefactors."

"Tingyun? What brings you here?" March 7th turned around, somewhat surprised.

"Didn't you say it wasn't convenient for you to come in?" Xing asked, puzzled.

"Oh dear, Lord Yukong has assigned me the task of receiving everyone again~" Tingyun explained.

"Therefore, I have a deep connection with all of you benefactors."

"Oh, it's you. I thought you were the one who personally contacted us, the one who flies through the air." March 7th was somewhat surprised.

"Hahaha, my benefactor is too kind. Lord Yukong is extremely busy. Although he would very much like to personally receive you all, he is simply too preoccupied with his affairs. Therefore, I, Tingyun, will have to handle the reception on his behalf." Tingyun waved her hand.

“That’s true, then I’ll have to trouble Miss Tingyun.” Walter Yang nodded.

"Thank you all for your understanding."

"I've booked a superior room at the Yichen Inn through the Tianbo Company. Once you've finished your business here, please come with me to the inn for a cup of tea and some rest."

"They just met and he's already staying overnight? Another time?" March 7th suddenly became alert.

As the saying goes, "once bitten, twice shy," she won't fall for it again on March 7th.

“Calm down. Unless they don’t want to find the Star Core Hunter, something like what happened to Belloborg won’t happen,” Eve calmly reassured her.
