Chapter 172 I am not Danfeng
Yeah, let's just give up.
Lu Li chose the simplest method.
after all……
As the saying goes, it's fun to give up for a while.
Keep doing it... keep having fun!
Lu Li took a deep breath and decided to go all out.
Tell the most outrageous, but also the only, truth.
"I'm telling you, you might not believe me..."
Lu Li looked at everyone with a serious expression: "She... I pulled her out of the knife!"
Himeko: "...?"
Walter: "..."
March 7th and Star: "?"
Dan Heng: "..."
Even Bai Heng was dumbfounded, pointing to himself with an incredulous expression.
Wait, say it again?
What did I come from?
Lu Li's words plunged the room into silence once again.
March 7th and Xing looked at each other, then looked at Lu Li with a "Are you delirious from a fever?" look.
"Did you pull it out of the knife...?" March 7th asked cautiously. "Lu Li."
"Um... have you been under a lot of work pressure lately?"
"How about Pam gives you a day off?"
"I'm telling the truth!" Lu Li exclaimed anxiously.
He instinctively reached for Xianyu and held it up in front of everyone: "This is the knife, Xianyu!"
"She was sealed inside before, and I just released her... Hmm?"
"Wait, where's my knife?"
Then Lu Li remembered.
His sword, his idle feathers... seem to have turned into white jade.
Lu Li: "..."
Seeing everyone's gaze, Lu Li gave an awkward laugh.
"Um, if I said Xianyu turned into Bai Heng... would you believe me?"
star:"?"
March 7th: "??"
Bai Heng: "???"
Dan Heng: "..."
Everyone was a little confused by Lu Li's confident and determined demeanor, which was almost as if he were swearing an oath to the heavens.
Bai Heng... well, he was even more confused.
She still hadn't figured out what Lu Li meant when he said she came out of a knife.
How did she suddenly turn into a sword spirit in the blink of an eye?
She remembered that she was born in the Year of the Fox...
Lu Li's explanation was simply too illogical.
How could a living person be sealed inside a knife?
However, Himeko and Welt did not directly deny it like March Seven and the others.
As well-informed navigators and former leaders of the Anti-Entropy Alliance, they knew that there were too many miracles and mysteries in this universe that could not be explained by common sense.
Walter looked at Lu Li thoughtfully: "Could it be... a rare artifact?"
If that knife is some kind of special creation of a star god, or a lost artifact from an ancient kingdom.
...In theory, it is indeed possible to seal the soul or even reshape the physical body.
Himeko clearly thought so too, and nodded.
She looked at Lu Li, her expression turning serious: "Lu Li."
"Tell us everything you just did, down to the last detail."
Seeing that Himeko and Welt seemed to believe him, Lu Li suddenly saw a glimmer of hope.
He quickly explained how he discovered Xianyu's abnormality and guessed from the images in the sky that Baiheng might have been sealed.
Finally, following in the footsteps of Lu Li from Tianmu, Lu Li recounted the entire process of breaking the seal with blood, just like Lu Li had done, with a "let's give it a try" attitude.
Well, actually, it all started because of the system's authentication function.
Unfortunately, I can't talk about the system.
After hearing his story, everyone fell silent.
Although this process sounds like a fantasy.
but……
March 7th and the others looked at Bai Heng, who was lying on the bed with a blank expression.
Her long, silvery-white hair cascaded over her shoulders like moonlight, and her fluffy fox ears trembled slightly.
Perhaps puzzled by their conversation, Bai Heng tilted his head and looked at them.
It looks exactly the same as what's in the sky.
No.
It was even more vivid and moving than what was shown in the sky.
Bai Heng was now standing right in front of them, so they had no choice but to believe it.
But that's precisely why it's so difficult.
A hero who should have died seven hundred years ago has somehow appeared on the Star Train...
Himeko and Welt exchanged a glance and sighed in unison.
Lu Li really gave them a difficult problem.
While Himeko and the others were racking their brains for a solution, Bai Heng, who had barely grasped the situation from their conversation, was taken aback.
Although I don't understand what Lu Li meant by saying she came out of the knife.
but……
Bai Heng turned his gaze and swept it over the unfamiliar March 7th and Star, then over the solemn-looking Himeko and Welt with a somewhat bewildered look.
Could it be... that this isn't Luofu?
Could it be that Lu Li used some method to teleport her here so that she wouldn't be affected by the Ruins of Return?
Yes, that must be it.
After all, if she hadn't been teleported away, how could she have survived in the activated Ruins of Return?
I just don't know where this is.
Moreover, judging from Lu Li's appearance, it seems that he knows the people here.
Could it be someone he knows?
However, just as Bai Heng was scanning his surroundings, trying to figure out what was going on...
She suddenly realized.
Besides Lu Li, there was another acquaintance present at the scene.
Bai Heng's gaze instantly fell on Dan Heng, who was standing next to March 7th with a somewhat complicated expression in his eyes.
Eyes facing each other.
Bai Heng: "Stare—"
Dan Heng: "..."
"Danfeng?"
Dan Heng: "..."
"It really is Danfeng!" Bai Heng exclaimed in surprise.
This preference for silence is exactly the same.
But why is Danfeng here too?
Could it be that when Lu Li teleported her, he accidentally dragged Dan Feng into it as well?
and……
Bai Heng looked at Dan Feng with some confusion: "Dan Feng, where are your dragon horns?"
"Where did it go?"
Dan Heng: "..."
Bai Heng's words instantly silenced the entire room.
Everyone's gaze unconsciously shifted back and forth between Dan Heng and Bai Heng.
They then realized...
With Bai Heng's resurrection... it's not just Lu Li who's in trouble.
One is the reincarnation of a dragon lord who was banished after forgetting all his memories, burdened by the sins of his past life.
One is a close friend from a past life who has been asleep for seven hundred years and has just returned from the brink of death.
This reunion, spanning seven centuries, began with such a heavy and...incongruous opening.
Dan Heng subconsciously took a step back.
He clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his palms, trying to calm himself down.
He clearly had no memory of it, and he had always wanted to sever ties with that so-called "past life".
But... is it because of seeing the sky?
Bai Heng's death, the tragedy of the Yin Yue Rebellion, the disintegration of the Five Heroes of the Clouds...
He saw Bai Heng standing alive in front of him.
The regret, guilt, and pain in his heart seemed to be consuming him.
But... his answer remained the same.
"I...I am not Danfeng."
Dan Heng looked at Bai Heng, his voice dry but incredibly firm.
"I am Dan Heng, an unnamed passenger on the Starry Sky Train."
