Honkai Impact 3rd, but I have too many mods.

That's called a technological breakthrough!

If I can live as Bai Heng today, will I be able to live as someone even more important tomorrow?

As for the suspicion of exploitation... the Immortal Ship is not a short-sighted force, and it will never mistreat the Ming Clan. In fact, it will give back even more benefits to the Ming Clan.

Even if this method can only be used once, bringing back a hero would still have a positive effect on the entire Immortal Ship.

So Fu Xuan just complained about it for a bit and then adjusted his mindset.

She uses practical things when necessary, and she's done offensive things before. During the Bountiful People's War, she was so bold as to include the Imperial Bow in her scheme. Even now, let alone back then, such an idea would be considered blasphemous and absurd.

After all, even a proper boss wouldn't scheme like that, let alone God and believers.

The Emperor Bow leaving its mark is a common occurrence in the history of the Immortal Ship, but this is the first time that the Emperor Bow has been deliberately shaken to leave its mark.

"If it really has such miraculous effects..."

A glint of light flashed in Fu Xuan's eyes.

She wanted to see if her teacher had foreseen that he would be resurrected.

However, she wasn't in a hurry—she had a relatively open-minded view of what happened back then.

Besides divination, what she, as a diviner, is most likely to be exposed to is various philosophical thoughts.

"Please continue, both of you."

Fu Xuan indicated that he was fine.

"Alright, let's get back to the main topic. Jingliu, are you worried that Baiheng won't be able to accept the situation of the Five Heroes of the Clouds?"

"No normal person could accept this."

Fu Xuan muttered something under his breath, his tone subtly sarcastic.

Mirror Flow could only remain silent.

No matter how you put it, she felt that Danfeng and Yingxing's actions back then were rather inhuman!

Putting everything else aside, if the two of you had been able to deal with that evil dragon yourselves after it appeared, things wouldn't have escalated to the point where one of you reincarnated to drive it away while the other was wanted by the authorities.

Fu Xuan was clearly criticizing the two for being out of their minds, and Jing Liu could only agree.

In particular, that evil dragon even used materials that exploded instantly.

Jingliu didn't have any thoughts at the time, but now that he has had more contact with Fengrao, he really suspects that if he hadn't defeated that evil dragon back then, Shuhu might have been resurrected after a while.

There's no way I can bring this up with Bai Heng!

"...Ahem, putting everything else aside, we can't keep this a secret forever, can we?"

"It's good to keep it a secret for a while. I just want to see her... other than that, it doesn't matter."

Time has passed, and if I were the same person who had just fought the Battle of Shuhu back then, I would probably have hugged Bai Heng and cried for a while.

But right now... Jingliu really can't imagine what he should say to Baiheng.

It's basically just chatting about old family matters, and then completely cutting off this "burden".

"Okay, then you can try this."

Seeing that Jing Liu looked determined, Liu Bai took out two small bottles.

"Oh, speedrun."

Liu Bai turned his head and glanced at Topa again, thinking, "I'll tie Topa up and spank her later."

"Cough cough, this medicine... can make you fall madly in love with me in a short period of time."

I feel ashamed to introduce medicine to people like this.

Liu Bai suppressed his embarrassment.

"If nothing unexpected happens, drinking this medicine will suppress the demonic energy... but correspondingly..."

A mad infatuation... the literal meaning of this is quite easy to understand.

Jingliu's crimson pupils shifted toward the small bottle.

To be honest, the effects of this medicine are a bit strange.

Is the "Affection" effect only effective on Liu Bai?

Jingliu felt he understood why Liu Bai seemed so troubled.

Taking out this medicine did indeed make it look like they had ulterior motives towards her.

But... it's just a mere physical body, what does it amount to?

"Thank you."

Jingliu calmly reached out and took it.

Compared to the horrific path she has already traversed, this potential cost seems like child's play.

At most, it will only allow Liu Bai to vent his anger a few times.

"..."

So peaceful.

Could it be that I'm actually still an innocent, naive young man?

Looking at Jing Liu's calm expression, Liu Bai couldn't help but reflect for a moment.

"...In short, it's better not to rely on this too much. Also, there's a waiting list for Heroic Spirits...Although it wouldn't be a big problem for you to cut in line, Yueyu has an important role in the upcoming great battle."

"Will there be a major battle next...?"

Jing Liu isn't stupid, not to mention she originally came from a military background.

Liu Bai's meaning was clear: if she performed well in the upcoming battle, she could legitimately cut in line.

A very reasonable arrangement.

"Jingliu will certainly live up to expectations."

Jing Liu stood up, bowed to Liu Bai, then nodded slightly to Fu Xuan in farewell, and left the office.

Next up...

Liu Bai looked at Fu Xuan.

"Qingque is sorry to have troubled you."

Fu Xuan immediately brought up the matter of Qing Que.

"No, no, no, Qingque has done a lot more than just trouble."

There's still a need for politeness among adults.

“You don’t need to be reliable. I know a bit about Qingque’s character. Now it’s even escalated to dereliction of duty… It’s my fault for not managing my subordinates properly.”

"Cough cough, it's not that bad. If it weren't for Qingque's simple observation array, our response to the disaster would probably be much slower."

Liu Bai couldn't help but say something nice to Qing Que.

Although Qingque is mostly lazy, she can indeed step up and play a crucial role when it matters.

As for the matter of dereliction of duty...

Don't be fooled by Liu Bai's apparent enjoyment of the story into thinking he's plotting against Qingque.

Actually, Qingque herself fell into the jade trap.

I got so caught up in slacking off that I forgot my boss was Emerald.

Even Liu Bai could see through this kind of fish-catching trick, so how could he not see through jade?

Jade deliberately let Bluebird get carried away with fishing, using this as a pretext for entrapment.

If you haven't done any work for an hour, you can easily make up an excuse.

But what if I haven't worked for two or three days?

...It's a shame Liu Bai reminded me that Jadeite is even more ruthless than Fu Xuan when it comes to oppressing people.

Qingque didn't take it to heart at all...

Well, Jade actually disguised herself very well; she was the typical "good-tempered big boss," always smiling and gentle even when she was offended.

Depending on others' choices, she can be either "Ms. Ciyu" or "the devil who collects souls".

Liu Bai couldn't really understand what Fei Cui was thinking. When it came to scheming, Fei Cui was definitely number one on Liu Bai's side.

If Fu Xuan didn't rely on divination and only on his cunning, he probably wouldn't be qualified to carry Fei Cui's shoes.

...So perhaps Qingque pondered this and came to the conclusion that although Fei Cui was a bit strict, she didn't cut corners, so she was better than Fu Xuan.

Then Emerald and Kaffa mixed together... Well, Liu Bai actually wanted to save people, but he couldn't resist Kaffa's excellent skills.

So I watched it for a while longer.

I really wanted to save them, I really did.

But as soon as Liu Bai finished praising her, Qing Que's face turned pale.

Qingque firmly believes in one thing: in the workplace, those who are capable should do more.

If you perform well, you'll have a constant stream of jobs coming your way.

"Simple and impoverished observation formation?"

Fu Xuan's voice was low and menacing. Although the two were of similar height, Fu Xuan was now... extremely imposing.

"How come I didn't know that my Taibu Si actually had a master who could simplify the Qiong Guan Formation?"

...Coincidentally, even in the Taibu Si, which was full of talented people, there were not many who truly understood the Qiong Guan Zhen.

Or rather, they can recite the principles but can't apply them in practice.

"No, don't listen to the BOSS's nonsense... That... that's not some simple Qiong Guan formation, it's ancient divination!"

Qingque panicked, while Fu Xuan smiled enigmatically.

Fu Xuan knew that Qing Que was very talented—after all, the Imperial Jade was a brain-teasing card game derived from celestial phenomena.

Qingque's talent in being able to recreate this game from ancient books goes without saying. In fact, if Qingque were to reveal her identity, her reputation in the Immortal Ship would probably be second only to Jingyuan, and even higher than her, the Grand Diviner.

After all... there are quite a few mahjong parlors on the streets and alleys of Luofu.

"Hehe... Let's leave it at that."

Fu Xuan had an expression that said, "I'll settle this with you later."

"I... no, I have come here to inquire about the position of historian from Lord Liu Bai."

"……what?"

Liu Bai paused for a moment before realizing what Fu Xuan was talking about.

One problem has passed, but another one has arisen!

504

Chapter 504 PUA is coming! PUA is coming!

Liu Bai turned to look at Qing Que—don't you know what kind of work that is?

The bluebird could only bow its head and bury its head in the sand like an ostrich.

The old fortune teller is completely autocratic! What... what can she say?

I can't say it!

Even if it's just a simple explanation, I just can't bring myself to say it!

"Speak your mind" is not a simple matter.

If it were really that simple, there wouldn't be things like "I just can't bring myself to confess" or "It's easier to kill him than to apologize."

Even Liu Bai, under normal circumstances, knows what is good to say and what is not to say.

People who speak their minds regardless of the situation are generally referred to as social terrorists.

After weighing the options, Qingque decided that instead of trying to explain why she recommended Fu Xuan, she should...
