"General, with the Wardance about to be held, your evaluation about to begin, and two other Xianzhou Generals arriving, why did our Seat of Divine Foresight inexplicably lose its ceiling? And someone reported seeing a giant golden sword flying straight into the sky from the Seat of Divine Foresight last night."
Fu Xuan looked at Jing Yuan, who was standing in front of her with an awkward smile, and asked this with a deep sigh.
"What exactly is going on? Has your mental state worsened? Did you attack randomly because you saw some illusion?"
"No, it was just an accident. Ah, I'm really sorry, Fu Xuan."
Jing Yuan looked very embarrassed. Yanqing, standing to the side, inexplicably felt that his master at this moment looked a bit like he did when he had caused trouble in front of him in the past.
"Fine, I won't bother with you. The two Generals coming this time are General Zhuyuan of the Xianzhou Zhuming and General Tianji of the Xianzhou Yaoqing. Originally, General Fubo was also supposed to come, but they really couldn't get away."
"Who told us to have a guest here who is incredibly important to the Vidyadhara? By the way, what is our distinguished guest doing now?"
"Since returning, he has been drinking tea and reading in the courtyard where he lived before. He doesn't look as busy as he previously claimed. I guess he's not very willing to see too many people. The Vidyadhara's requests to meet him have also been blocked by Ao Xiaotian."
"It's good that there have been no accidents. How are the preparations for the Wardance?"
When Jing Yuan asked this question, Fu Xuan did not answer immediately but looked at Yanqing beside her.
"Yanqing, go and wait at the Stargazer Navalia. I will coordinate with Fu Xuan, and then we will meet the two arriving Generals there."
"Yes, General."
Yanqing nodded and then quickly walked away from the ceilingless Seat of Divine Foresight.
"Isn't this plan a bit too aggressive? By letting those guys in like this, won't there be any accidents?"
Fu Xuan was referring to the Borisin, who were planning to take advantage of this Wardance to sneak into the Xianzhou Luofu to rescue their Warhead, Hoolay.
Regarding this matter, it was actually something Fu Xuan had divined at first. After all, when holding a Wardance, one had to divine the fortune. Unexpectedly, even Fu Xuan herself did not anticipate that she would directly divine a catastrophe.
She did not know if it was because of the lost memories or some other reason, but in short, Fu Xuan found that her ability to divine and predict had become stronger recently. Although this was a good thing, everything had a price, and Fu Xuan did not know what the price for this extremely powerful divining ability would be.
"This matter will happen regardless. Instead of postponing the Wardance and admitting defeat, it is better to let it erupt. At least it can prove that our Luofu has not reached the end of its rope."
If Jing Yuan had been worried about any accidents before, he now felt energetic and had acquired a new sword technique. He felt that even if that so-called Hoolay escaped, he was absolutely confident in pressing him back into his cell.
Taking advantage of this opportunity to round up all the maggots hiding inside the Xianzhou Luofu, those rats hiding in dark corners, was better than letting those people continue to lurk and then suddenly erupt at some unknown time.
"I just hope this operation does not disturb Mr. Caelus."
Jing Yuan said this, thinking that the dream from last night and his current mental state should be the work of Caelus.
So he needed to prepare a gift now. If he showed up empty-handed during his visit later, he would be far too ungrateful.
At this moment, Caelus lay on a lounge chair in the small courtyard, basking in the sun and flipping through a book. On the surface, it looked like he was reading, but in reality, he was already asleep with his eyes open.
After completing the mission, he had already received 6,000 System Currency and a portion of knowledge regarding the Path of Dreams.
The 6,000 System Currency went without saying, but that portion of knowledge regarding the Path of Dreams was particularly precious, granting Caelus a significant boost in the realm of dreams. This was why he was able to transcend space and time to allow his past self and future self from two different time periods to communicate and interact.
He had now entered a state of sleepwalking, his consciousness split into two parts. One part was looking at the book in his hands, while the other had begun to weave a dream in his sleep, a dream naturally deduced and created according to the story within the book.
Just as Caelus was training himself in this manner, the gate was knocked upon. Cyrene walked out from the inner room, opened the courtyard gate, and saw Qingque, who wore a puzzled expression.
Qingque blinked, looked at the pink-haired girl in front of her who was about the same height as herself, then checked the house number outside. After confirming she had not come to the wrong place, she asked, "Hello, I'm here to see Caelus."
"Partner, Qingque is looking for you!"
Cyrene's call allowed Caelus's consciousness to return to one. He stood up from the lounge chair, looked at Qingque outside the door, and asked, "What is it?"
"Caelus, the other two Xianzhou Generals are about to arrive. General Jing Yuan asked me to check if you'd like to go see them with us."
"Hmm? Is it alright for an outsider like me to be present for something like this?"
"Why wouldn't it be? Those two Generals have come to the Xianzhou Luofu. I don't believe for a second that they don't intend to look for you."
"Which two Generals are coming?"
"General Zhuyuan of the Xianzhou Zhuming and General Tianji of the Xianzhou Yaoqing."
After hearing this, Caelus thought for a moment, then picked up his phone and dialed the strange number that had called him before.
After a series of elegant violin sounds, the call connected, and a somewhat lazy female voice came from the other side.
"Hello? Is something the matter?"
"Over at the Xianzhou Luofu, General Zhuyuan of the Xianzhou Zhuming will be arriving. Could you help me ask Blade if he would like to arrange a meeting in a dream, or if there is anything he needs me to pass on?"
"I should indeed ask him properly. His mental and physical condition are much more stable than before, and I have you to thank for that. As for the upcoming script, Blade should be able to complete it with even greater ease."
"Hmm."
Although they did not know why, both of them tacitly avoided mentioning Firefly, who was still lying in the incubation pod.
After a long silence on the other end, a deep male voice sounded through the phone.
"Just help me see how that old man's newly accepted disciple is doing. As payment, I will compile all the forging techniques I knew back then into a volume and give it to you."
Caelus nodded, then hung up the phone. He stood up, preparing to go meet those two Generals. It just so happened that he also needed to tell Jing Yuan that the souls of those who died at the hands of the evil dragon back then were now in his possession. He did not know if Baiheng had mentioned it.
Of course, he would not go to see those two Generals right away. He happened to be craving something, so he would go buy some snacks first.
