"Oh no, Yanqing is going to lose again (sad)."
"How can a 1.0 version ice DPS compete with a 2.4 Destruction DPS?"
"My heart aches for Yanqing."
"What! My 50/50 and guaranteed pity are fighting each other!?"
"Setting aside the game, just talking about reality, I think Yanqing has a better chance of winning. After all, he's been mentored by so many experts and is a genius himself."
"But Yunli's effects look really intimidating, don't they?"
…
In the live stream.
Many players were curious and speculating about the outcome of the battle.
If the fight hadn't come so suddenly, betting pools would have probably been opened!
Both of them assumed their starting stances.
Yunli launched the first attack!
Yanqing deftly dodged, leaping onto another rooftop, then counterattacked with his flying swords.
But Yunli blocked them all with her greatsword as if it were a shield!
Yunli's moves were bold and unrestrained, forcing Yanqing to temporarily retreat.
He summoned his flying swords and soared into the sky.
After regaining his balance, he unleashed a barrage of sword beams raining down on Yunli below.
Yunli, in response, hurled Old Mettle straight at him.
Both of them returned to the ground.
This time, neither dodged nor blocked. Instead, they charged at each other, fully prepared for battle!
Their weapons glowed with corresponding lights!
One red, one blue!
Clearly,
Both of them were taking this seriously!
And in the midst of this visually stunning scene.
A figure appeared, walking as if she were strolling through a garden.
In a remarkably harmonious manner, she stepped between the two.
At the very moment when Yunli's and Yanqing's blades were about to clash.
She extended two fingers.
On one side, she caught Yunli's Old Mettle.
On the other, she pinched the flying sword in Yanqing's hand.
Her eyes opened.
Her face was utterly calm and composed!
Yanqing was visibly shocked.
Meanwhile, Yunli was still trying to pull her weapon down with all her might, but it didn't budge an inch!
...
"Wow, that was so cool?!"
"Flicking fingers to stop blades, kid!"
"Is Feixiao really this strong? She just effortlessly defused the situation!"
"Why am I even hesitating? I'm definitely pulling for her!"
"Is she actually invincible? No joke?"
"Do you even understand the weight of our Three-Nothing General's reputation?"
...
At the prison gate.
Seeing that his duel with Yunli had been stopped by Feixiao.
Yanqing sighed.
He wasn't sure whether to feel relieved or disappointed.
But overall, it seemed like he hadn't been at a disadvantage!
At most...
At most, it was a draw.
However,
What shocked Yanqing the most was Feixiao's strength!
It was so effortlessly displayed!
It felt as if even if he and Yunli combined their strength, they still couldn't match a single finger of hers!
Is this the Sky-Striking General?
Just how high has her power reached?
The level of an Emanator?
When will I ever reach such a realm?
"Phew..."
Yanqing shook his head.
He was starting to lose his focus again.
Take it step by step.
There will come a day when I break through these shackles!
...
Inside The Shackling Prison.
"General, General Jing Yuan has invited you to the council platform to discuss the next steps."
"Alright, I understand."
Feixiao waved her hand.
But her eyes didn't leave the Jade Abacus in front of her!
Because.
At this very moment, the live-streamed plot had just reached the part where she made her appearance!
How could she leave at such a crucial moment?
Jing Yuan? Well, he's always been slow and steady. Let him wait for a bit.
This is my first appearance in Honkai: Star Rail!
It's of monumental significance!
"Hmm... not bad, that move was quite dashing, Yu Ling, you really get it!"
Feixiao nodded in approval.
Surely, the other players must think the same, right?
She opened the barrage of comments.
She hadn't expected it.
The players were practically going wild, as if they were struck by Mara!
...
"Feixiao! She's so cool!"
"The color of her eyes is so captivating!"
"Help, she's so beautiful, wuwuwu!!!"
"Damn it! No one told me that Feixiao in person is even more stunning than Yu Ling's illustration!"
"How does she manage to be so cool, beautiful, and cute at the same time?"
"I can't take my eyes off her!"
"6+5, definitely pulling."
"Wallet: Oh no, it's coming for me."
"Is she pinching a sword? No, she's pinching my heart!"
"That eye makeup is gorgeous!"
"I predict! This eye makeup will become the top trend in the next month!"
...
Feixiao was a bit stunned.
She knew that once she appeared in the plot, not only would her fame increase, but she would also likely receive some affection from the players.
But she hadn't expected.
That the players would be this crazy!
Feixiao even wondered.
If she were to appear in front of the players right now.
The scene would probably explode!
But admittedly.
This feeling... wasn't bad at all!
Keep watching the plot!
With her intervention, 0 ...
Yunli and Yanqing temporarily reconciled, and Yunli returned the sword.
Soon after, I arrived at the ancient seaside shore.
Standing by the railing, I gazed into the distance.
Not long after, Jiaoqiu and Mozhe returned.
"You're back? You've met Jing Yuan and wandered around for a few hours. What are your thoughts?" Feixiao asked.
"In my opinion, The Divine Foresight intends to use the martial ceremony to demonstrate strength, proving that Luofu remains peaceful and prosperous after the calamity of the Ambrosial Arbor..." Jiaoqiu replied, narrowing his eyes.
"However, the influx of people during the martial ceremony could become the biggest amplifier of unrest and rumors. One wrong move, and chaos could ensue."
Feixiao then began to explain why she didn't meet Jing Yuan immediately.
"Before making contact, I wanted to set aside preconceptions and observe the situation he has created before making a judgment. This situation naturally includes the demeanor of the Cloud Knights on the streets, the public's opinion, and the behavior of those close to him."
"Are you scrutinizing General Jing Yuan as if he were an enemy?" Jiaoqiu asked.
"The general who has led the Xianzhou Luofu the longest—would his enemies be few?"
Feixiao chuckled lightly.
After all,
in the storyline, there was no game like Honkai: Star Rail.
Her knowledge of Jing Yuan was merely hearsay.
It was only natural to investigate in this manner.
"Ah, it would be so much easier if there were Honkai: Star Rail~" Feixiao couldn't help but sigh.
At that moment,
Jiaoqiu asked, "By the way, General, have you met the Medicine Dragon Maiden? Could you let me see the prescription she gave you?"
"For my condition, even the Medicine Dragon Maiden had no solution. She just told me to eat well."
"...Even the renowned Medicine Dragon Maiden couldn't help?" Jiaoqiu's expression darkened.
But he quickly regained his composure.
"Don't worry, I will fulfill my promise from back then and find a way to cure you. I already have a lead."
This outcome was entirely within Feixiao's expectations.
However,
the barrage of comments was in an uproar!
...
"???"
"What's going on?"
"Eat well?"
"Goodness, in Luofu, doesn't that mean waiting for death and preparing for the end?"
"Is Feixiao suffering from some incurable illness?"
"Wuwuwu, no way!!"
"I finally fell for someone, and you make me lose so completely?"
"It's over!"
"The Medicine Dragon Maiden's 'eat well' might not be the same as our understanding of 'eat well,' after all, she's the woman who uses smoked meat buns as medicine."
"Luocha and Ruan Mei, save her!"
