After a whole farce, Lu Furong, Purple Chrysanthemum, and Blueberry, the three Sowers from the Disciples of the Sanctus Medicus, left in a sorry state.
Although the process had many twists and turns, and Lu Furong even got slapped into partial paralysis, the result was ultimately good.
That person was more than just not weak. From that close slap, he spun Lu Furong like a top. This green-headed fish-man was insanely strong.
For the Disciples of the Sanctus Medicus, this was definitely a good thing.
It was just a pity that through this one incident, they could only tell that person was very strong, but not exactly how strong he really was.
Not asking him to be like the Emanator Shuhu, but if this person had the strength of an average Command Envoy, then their Disciples of the Sanctus Medicus wouldn't need to keep placing their hopes on Xianzhou anymore...
And after the people from the Disciples of the Sanctus Medicus left, the Cloud Knight who had come to go undercover was already panicking inside.
Just as he was thinking about how to deal with Nero, he heard this green-headed fish-man wave his hand and say, "You can go!"
The Cloud Knight froze on the spot for two seconds, thinking he had misheard.
After all, he had just seen how this guy dealt with Lu Furong.
But judging from the current situation, no matter whether the other party sided with the Xianzhou or not, he definitely wasn't on the Disciples of the Sanctus Medicus's side. Otherwise, why would he let him go so easily?
After waiting another two seconds, the Cloud Knight realized Nero really had no intention of dealing with him anymore, so he said thanks and left as well.
Once the Cloud Knight was gone too, Nero stretched lazily.
"So tired..." As he spoke, Nero released his perception to make sure everyone around had left.
After confirming that, he took off the headgear and shook his hair.
Then he called over Black Cutter and sat down on the sword with a plop.
"For now, there's basically nothing going on. I can rest for a bit," Nero said.
"Mm." Mr. Yang nodded.
"So Nero, what exactly happened in the courtyard? How did they start calling you 'sir' in such a short time?" March asked.
As March's voice fell, the three members of the Express Crew all looked at Nero with curious eyes.
"Mm... originally when we went into the courtyard, we were arguing. Then we made a bet. If the scriptures he copied were useless, I'd slap him. That's why I slapped him just now."
"But while I was arguing with him, Aha suddenly sent me a message, saying he was going to give me some good stuff he got from the Abundance."
"After the stuff was delivered, they turned into that. Probably because their faith in Abundance is too deep!"
Nero briefly explained what had happened in the courtyard to the three of them. After hearing his explanation, the three people present fell silent.
Although earlier, when Nero casually posted his chat records with Aha in the group, they already knew this kid had quite a deep connection with that Aeon of Elation.
Although they knew that for that unpredictable Aeon of Elation, doing something like this was normal.
But hearing Nero say it out loud himself still brought a different kind of shock.
Stelle raised her hand and scratched her head. She still remembered when she first boarded the train, Pom-Pom had said that every passenger on the Astral Express was special, each with their own secrets.
But Nero being friends with an Aeon, and even chatting with one frequently, wasn't that a bit too shocking for common sense?
However, if those Masked Fools gathered in the tavern heard such news, they would definitely raise their glasses and celebrate together.
For them, this was absolutely an extremely interesting situation.
Especially considering that Nero would occasionally say things like "Aha-what-the-heck"...
By the way, on the Xianzhou blessed by the Hunt, was it really okay to receive something belonging to Abundance that had been passed along by Elation?
'Teacher Dan Heng, this question is too hard, come help me!'

In the real world, after hearing Nero's explanation in the game, Siberian Duck more or less figured out what had happened in the courtyard earlier.
"No wonder Nero said Lu Furong still owed him a slap. So that's what it was about."
[Herta Fans Support Group: Oh my Aha, so it was you pulling the strings!]
[Belobog Savage: Aha-what-the-heck, I knew this was definitely all planned by Aha!]
[Aha Is Not Here: @Hunt Aeon, Brother Lan, how are you feeling right now?]
[Hunt Aeon: You're even acting now. I'll shoot you dead, you little cutie!]
[Nero Is My Husband: Hmph, a bunch of shallow people. You only noticed Aha's prank, but didn't notice the actually useful part.]
[Glue Man: Brother Yellow Pee, what insight do you have?]
[Nero Is My Husband: @Nero's Sword Brother, lend me your name!]
[Nero's Sword: ?]
[Nero's Sword: Oh! I see! Not giving it! I'm enjoying it!]
[Nero Is My Husband: Tch.]
[Glue Man: So... what are you talking about?]
[I Use Pantene: In my opinion, the answer is on the screen. Look at what Nero is sitting on.]
[Glue Man: Hiss... so that's it. Not gonna lie, thinking about it carefully, it's pretty satisfying.]
[Zero-Two: Wow, you're cut from the same cloth!]
[Nero Is My Husband: No, damn it! Who stole my name?]
[Nero's Weapon: Hehe!]
[Nero's Black Cutter: Hehe!]
[Black Cutter: Hehe!]
[Glue Man: Today is truly a day worth remembering. It should be written into the Chronicles of Yellow Pee. Today, Brother Yellow Pee has finally suffered a crushing defeat. Before this, although he faced many setbacks, he had never lost as completely as he did today.]
[Nero Is My Husband: I can't take it anymore. To vent the resentment in my heart, I declare that I'm going to go at it ten days straight!]
[Pure Beauty Knight: Kid, you're beyond saving!]

[In The Game]
The undercover mission with the Disciples of the Sanctus Medicus was considered complete.
The Trailblaze Team finally got some free time again, so Nero took the other three around, strolling here and there, buying some snacks from street stalls.
After some more time passed, Stelle received a message from Qingzu.
[Qingzu: Stelle, is everything going smoothly?]
[Stelle: ...]
[Stelle: How should I put it?]
[Stelle: It's kind of hard to explain...]
[Qingzu: ?]
[Qingzu: Did you run into any trouble?]
[Qingzu: From the reports I just received, you should indeed be a bit careful.]
[Qingzu: That guy is probably not an ordinary person. If you feel like you've been exposed, remember to withdraw in time.]
[Qingzu: If you need help, tell me. The Divination Commission will do its best to provide convenience for you.]
[Stelle: Uh...]
[Stelle: There aren't really that many difficulties.]
[Qingzu: ???]
[Qingzu: So... he is on your side?]
[Stelle: That's right!]
[Stelle: In short, this undercover operation went very smoothly! So smoothly it's almost unbelievable!]
[Qingzu: As long as it went smoothly. I've always believed in your abilities.]
[Stelle: Let me tell you another secret.]
[Qingzu: What?]
[Stelle: Actually, he is Nero!]
[Qingzu: Huh?]
[Qingzu: Huh??]
[Qingzu: Who?]
[Qingzu: No, how did Nero manage to not be recognized by the Disciples of the Sanctus Medicus while going undercover with you?]
[Qingzu: Also, I asked you to go undercover. In less than a day, you just got in and someone already made it to a small leadership position?]
