Little Gui's livestream.
At this moment.
Guinaifen had arrived at the Palace of Astrum.
The recent Borisin riot was just a minor incident.
The Cloud Knights calmed the crowd and then dispersed, and the streets returned to peace.
The main quest now was to go to the Palace of Astrum to meet Jing Yuan.
In front of the projection sand table.
Jing Yuan was as usual.
Lazy and easygoing.
Yanqing reported, "General, I have brought the guests from the train. I didn't know you were meeting visitors, so I might have come at an inopportune time."
Jing Yuan, however, didn't seem to mind.
He turned around and greeted the Astral Express Crew with a smile, "No problem, you came at just the right time. It's been a while, everyone from the Astral Express!"
At this moment.
Three options appeared on the interface.
[General, how have you been?]
[I dreamt of you in Penacony Dreams.]
[Did you miss us?]
If this were a real-life meeting, the first option would undoubtedly be the most appropriate.
But this is Honkai: Star Rail!
Guinaifen naturally chose the second option without hesitation!
"Folks, I don't think any Trailblazer could resist this option, right?"
"The scene of the Water Dragon Set Divine Lord is still vivid in my mind!"
"I wish we could pull off a thrilling combo move like that in real life~"
The comments also chimed in!
...
"Ena's dream is also a dream!"
"Is this a universal consensus? I chose the exact same thing."
"I feel relieved seeing everyone else chose this."
"You came at just the right time [laughs]"
"Hey, did you miss me?"
"If you choose the third option, March 7th will tease: When did she get so close to the General? They're chatting and laughing like old friends."
"Jing Yuan's emotional intelligence is really high!"
...
Jing Yuan chuckled, "Oh? I entered an old friend's dream, showing that I am remembered. It's an honor to have a place in your beautiful dreams."
"Allow me to introduce to you all, this is the Celestial General of Xianzhou Zhuming, General Zhu Yuan, Huaiyan."
Beside Jing Yuan.
Stood a short, elderly man.
It was General Zhu Yuan, Huaiyan!
Though unremarkable in appearance.
No one dared to underestimate him!
Guinaifen had also heard some legendary stories about this general.
She sighed, "Finally, I get to meet General Huaiyan."
"Judging by his appearance and voice, he seems like a kind and benevolent old man."
After some mutual polite exchanges.
Huaiyan introduced his granddaughter.
As soon as Yunli appeared.
Yanqing immediately exclaimed.
"It's you!"
"This young lady helped subdue the fleeing Borisin prisoner at the Starskiff Sea. I must thank you first. But when you left... you also took my flying sword with you."
Yunli blinked, "Flying sword? Oh, I was wondering how a short sword ended up in my bag. So it's yours."
"Indeed. Since fate has brought us together again, I hope you can..."
Both were from noble martial families.
What had happened before seemed to be just a misunderstanding.
And it was in front of two generals.
Guinaifen and many players felt that this matter shouldn't be a big deal.
Yunli could just return the sword.
It would be a prelude to the younger generation of Xianzhou's martial prowess forging connections.
However.
Yunli crossed her arms and said, "I'm afraid that won't do."
"Won't do?"
"You want this sword back, right? Fine, but not in this way. In Zhuming, the rule is that a sword lost on the battlefield must be reclaimed on the battlefield."
Yunli continued bluntly,
"This little sword is no exception. It was flying through the air, meant to strike the fleeing Borisin. Unfortunately, the sword's master was distracted, causing it to lose its aim like a broken-winged kite."
"Moreover, if I hadn't caught the sword and helped it hit its target, that Borisin would have escaped long ago."
"If you could openly and honorably take back your sword from me, Yunli would be convinced and admit defeat. But you didn't. Instead, you tried to downplay the matter and casually asked me to return the sword in front of everyone..."
"Forgive my bluntness, but you have no respect for the sword that aids us in battle and protects our lives. You are unworthy of this blade."
Yunli's words left Guinaifen utterly bewildered!
What kind of logic is this little girl using?
The players in the live stream also expressed their confusion!
...
"Are you okay, Yunli?"
"Yunli: This is what I picked up."
""When Your Weapon Gets Picked Up by a Teammate During a Fight""
"There's a saying in Xianzhou: When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Host's Choice. Luofu is not Zhuming."
"Still haven't been beaten enough. Yanqing used to be so spirited, but after being taught lessons by masters one after another, he's become so polite now."
"Yunli: The waters of this sword are deep, you can't handle it."
"This little girl has quite the personality!"
"What has Yunli been through…"
...
Guinaifen was both puzzled and curious at this moment.
All signs indicated that Yunli was not like an ordinary child!
"Ding!"
[Yu Ling has released the Honkai: Star Rail Yunli Character PV—"By Accident," come take a look~]
"Yunli's PV?"
Guinaifen's eyes lit up!
"It seems Yunli is the first limited 5-star character to debut this version!"
"Let's pause the main story for a bit and see how her PV performs?"
The video began to play.
A Diting napping on a platform came into view.
Guinaifen immediately smiled.
The opening was a surprise!
Her ultimate also had a Diting in it.
These little creatures are truly adorable.
"Clang!"
A gong sounded.
Accompanied by a vendor's shout: "Skewers here—!!"
The Diting was startled!
It jumped into the air.
Then landed squarely on Yunli, who was sleeping below.
Yunli had been covering her face with a book.
Now she was jolted awake!
Following the scent.
She quickly arrived at the location of the target skewers.
Under the railing.
Was Jing Yuan!
Jing Yuan, the prisoner.
He occupied an entire Eight Immortals table by himself.
Besides the tea and buns on the table.
He happened to be holding a skewer of red and sweet Berrypheasant Skewers!
Beside him.
Was the eagerly waiting Diting.
Above.
Was Yunli, her face filled with longing.
Jing Yuan noticed Yunli and deliberately waved the Berrypheasant Skewers in his hand.
Yunli's mouth instantly formed an "O."
Her little face flushed with two red spots.
Her eyes sparkled!
She seemed to be sitting atop a giant Berrypheasant Skewer, soaring freely!
To be honest.
Berrypheasant Skewers.
They're sold right outside Guinaifen's house.
She eats them often.
They're indeed delicious.
Seeing Yunli like this, it seemed like it was her first time in Luofu, her first encounter with this famous Luofu snack.
No wonder she's so eager.
Jing Yuan seemed to be in high spirits now.
He narrowed his eyes.
And asked with a smile, "Want some?"
Yunli was stunned.
She showed a look of disdain.
"Hmph!"
The next second.
She immediately changed her expression!
Reached out to grab the skewer.
But Jing Yuan anticipated it and moved it out of reach.
The Diting beside them also tried to snatch it.
Both the girl and the beast were played like a fiddle by Jing Yuan!
Yunli immediately showed a fierce expression.
"Want me to cut you?"
"So fierce."
Jing Yuan casually tossed the skewer into the air.
"Catch."
Yunli used the wall beside her for leverage.
Did a flip into the air.
Finally, she showed a satisfied expression.
"Hmph, you're finally being sensible!"
...
"Wow, the art style is so Elation-like?"
"Jing Yuan is like the old man at the village entrance."
"Did Jing Yuan stack all his Relics with speed? How can he predict so well?"
"This is just an old man teasing a kid!"
"Whose kid is this?"
"Even though Yunli is older than Yanqing, she still feels like a child who hasn't grown up yet."
"Just like the mischievous little sister next door."
"I think she's more like a tsundere kitten."
"Kind of cute..."
"Immortal Realm, my happy homeland!"
"Version 2.4 is here, and Jing Yuan finally sits down."
