Chapter 390: Yunli has that much personality?! She's basically just a little kitten!
Little Gui's Livestream Room.
At this moment.
Guinaifen had already arrived inside the Palace of Astrum.
The Borisin riot that had just occurred was merely a minor interlude.
The Cloud Knights had pacified the crowd and subsequently dispersed, and the long street returned to its usual tranquility.
Now, the main quest was still to head to the Palace of Astrum to meet Jing Yuan.
In front of the projection sand table.
Jing Yuan was as he always was.
Languid and easygoing.
Yanqing reported, "General, I have brought the guests from the Express. I hope Yanqing hasn't arrived at an inconvenient time for the General to receive guests."
Jing Yuan did not mind at all.
Turning around, he greeted the Express crew with a smile, "Not at all, you've arrived just in time. Everyone from the Astral Express, long time no see!"
At this moment.
Three options appeared on the screen.
[ General, is everything well? ]
[ I dreamed of you in Penacony. ]
[ Did you miss us? ]
If they were meeting in reality, the first option would definitely be the most proper and serious one.
But this was Honkai: Star Rail!
Guinaifen naturally chose the second option without any hesitation!
"Family, I don't think any Trailblazer can refuse this option, right?"
"The scene of the 'Dragon Lord' and his Lightning-Lord is still vivid in my mind!"
"I wonder when we can pull off a blood-pumping combo move like that in reality~"
The bullet chat also chimed in!
…
"The Order's dream is also a dream!"
"Is this a universal consensus? I chose the exact same one."
"Seeing that everyone chose this, I feel reassured."
"You've arrived just in time [ Laughs out loud ]"
"Hey, did you miss me?"
"If you choose the third option, March 7th will complain: 'When on earth did she get so familiar with the General? The two of them talk and laugh like old pals.'"
"Jing Yuan's EQ is truly high!"
…
Jing Yuan smiled and said, "Oh? 'I enter an old friend's dream, showing they long remember me.' To have a place in your sweet dreams is my utmost honor."
"Allow me to introduce to you all—this is the Arbiter-General of the Xianzhou Zhuming, General of the Flaming Heart, Huaiyan."
Beside Jing Yuan.
Stood a short, elderly man.
It was indeed General Huaiyan!
Though unimposing in appearance.
No one dared to underestimate him!
Guinaifen had also heard some legendary tales of this General.
She lamented, "We finally get to meet General Huaiyan."
"Judging purely from his appearance and voice, he seems like a warm and kindly old grandpa."
After both sides exchanged some polite, professional flattery.
Huaiyan introduced his granddaughter.
As soon as Yunli appeared.
Yanqing immediately gasped.
"It's you!"
"This lady helped suppress and capture the escaping Borisin prisoner in Central Starskiff Haven. Yanqing thanks you for that. But when you left… you also happened to take my flying sword with you."
Yunli blinked, "Flying sword? …Oh, I was wondering why a short sword had appeared out of nowhere in my pack. So it was yours."
"Indeed. Since we are fated to meet again, I hope you can…"
Both were disciples of great masters.
What happened before seemed to be just a misunderstanding.
And it was right in front of the two Generals.
Guinaifen and many players felt that this shouldn't be a big deal.
Yunli just had to return the sword.
It could be seen as an introductory prelude to the friendship between the younger generation of the Xianzhou's combat forces.
However.
Yunli crossed her arms and said, "I'm afraid that won't do."
"Won't do?"
"You want this sword back, right? You can have it, but not in this manner. By the rules of our Zhuming, a sword lost on the battlefield must be won back on the battlefield."
Yunli continued to speak frankly without reservation,
"This little sword is a case in point. It was flying in the air, meant to strike that fleeing Borisin. Unfortunately, its master's mind was cluttered, causing it to lose its aim like a kite with broken wings instead."
"Besides, if I hadn't reached out to catch this sword and helped it hit its target, that Borisin would have long escaped."
"If you could openly and honorably snatch your sword back from my hands, I, Yunli, would be fully convinced. But you didn't. You actually thought of trivializing the matter, casually asking me to return the sword in front of everyone…"
"Forgive my bluntness, but you have no respect for the sword that helps us slay enemies and protect ourselves. You do not deserve this sword."
Yunli's words.
Left Guinaifen a bit dumbfounded!
What kind of logic did this little girl have?
The players in the livestream room also expressed their lack of understanding!
…
"Are you okay, Yunli?"
"Yunli: This is finders keepers."
"'When your weapon is picked up by a teammate during a fight'"
"There is a Xianzhou proverb: 'When in Rome, do as the Romans do.' The Luofu is not the Zhuming."
"It's just that she hasn't been beaten enough. Look at how high-spirited Yanqing used to be. After being educated by master after master, look at how polite he is now."
"Yunli: The water in this sword runs too deep, you can't handle it."
"The little girl has quite a personality!"
"What did Yunli go through…"
…
Guinaifen was now somewhat puzzled and curious.
All sorts of signs indicated.
Yunli was not like ordinary children!
Ding!
[ Feathered Spirit has released Character PV — Yunli Trailer — "Serendipity" -Honkai: Star Rail. Come and watch together~ ]
"Yunli's PV?"
Guinaifen's eyes lit up!
"It seems Yunli is indeed the first limited five-star character to debut in this version!"
"Let's pause the main quest for a moment and see how she performs in her PV!"
The video began to play.
A Diting napping on a platform came into view.
Guinaifen's lips instantly curled upward!
A surprise right at the opening!
Her own Ultimate also featured a Diting!
These little guys were truly adorable.
Dong!
A gong resounded.
Accompanied by a street vendor's shout: "BERRYPHEASANT SKEWERS—!! Very sweeeet~"
The Diting shivered in fright!
It jumped into the air.
And then landed squarely on Yunli, who was sleeping below.
Yunli originally had a book covering her face.
At this moment, she was suddenly startled awake!
Following the guidance of the aroma.
She quickly arrived at the location of the target skewers.
Under the railing.
Sat none other than Jing Yuan!
Old Jing!
He occupied an entire square table for eight all by himself.
Aside from the tea and buns on the table.
He happened to be holding a skewer of red, sweet berrypheasant skewers in his hand!
Beside him.
Was the eagerly waiting Diting.
Above.
Was Yunli, looking on with longing.
Jing Yuan noticed Yunli and even deliberately waved the skewer in his hand.
Yunli's mouth instantly formed an 'O' shape.
Two patches of blush surfaced on her small face.
Her eyes were sparkling!
She felt as if she were sitting on top of a giant berrypheasant skewer, soaring freely in the sky!
To be honest.
Tuskpine berrypheasant skewers.
They were sold right outside Guinaifen's doorstep.
She ate them often herself.
The taste was indeed excellent.
Looking at Yunli's reaction, it seemed this was her first time coming to the Luofu, and her first time encountering this famous Luofu snack.
No wonder she was drooling like this.
Jing Yuan also seemed to find it amusing at this moment.
Squinting his eyes.
He asked with a smile, "You want some?"
Yunli was taken aback.
She showed a look of disdain.
"Hmph!"
The next second.
She instantly changed her face!
She reached out to snatch the skewer.
But Jing Yuan anticipated her move in advance and pulled it away.
The Diting beside him was also trying to grab it.
The person and the beast were both played like fiddles in Jing Yuan's hands!
Yunli suddenly wore a fierce expression.
"I'll slash you!"
"So fierce."
Jing Yuan casually tossed the skewer into the air.
"Catch."
Yunli used the nearby wall to propel herself.
Doing a somersault in mid-air.
She finally showed a satisfied expression.
"Hmph, at least you know your place!"
…
"Holy cow, is the art style of this PV so joyous?"
"Jing Yuan looks like an old grandpa at the village entrance."
"Did Jing Yuan put all his Relic stats into Speed? How can he predict like that?"
"This is literally an old grandpa teasing a kid!"
"Whose kid is this?"
"Even though Yunli is older than Yanqing, she just feels like a child who hasn't grown up yet."
"Just like my mischievous little younger sister next door."
"I think she's more like a tsundere kitten."
"A bit cute…"
"Xianzhou, my happy homeworld!"
"It's version 2.4, and Jing Yuan has finally sat down."
