Chapter 112: The High-Cloud Quintet — Jingliu V
"Alright, alright, let's not discuss this any further. Next, we will play a fan-made video featuring Miss Jingliu."
"Caelus and Miss Jingliu's daughter!"
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Jing Yuan: What? Do I have a grandmaster and a junior sister now? ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Jingliu: What kind of joke are you playing? How could I possibly get married? ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Blade: This woman getting married? Hehehehehe, I don't believe it at all. ]
…
The screen slowly faded in, showing Yanqing covered in bruises from being beaten up.
Beside him, a little girl with white hair tied into two small buns held a wooden sword with a joyful look on her face. Looking at Yanqing, she said, "Hahahahaha, Brother Yanqing got beaten! Bleeeh, so weak, so weak!"
At this moment, Yanqing was holding a wooden sword, panting heavily. He spoke with a face full of disbelief, "So strong… Little girl, who on earth are you?"
Hearing Yanqing's words, the little girl instantly became proud. She snorted and said with a tsundere expression, "Hmph, hmph, hmph. Once Brother Yanqing beats me, I'll tell you."
"Grumble~~~~~"
Just then, a sound suddenly came from the little girl's stomach.
Hearing this sound, the little girl's face instantly flushed red. Stroking her stomach with both hands, she said awkwardly, "Mmm~ I'm hungry! I'll come back to spar with you tomorrow!"
Then, the little girl picked up her wooden sword, turned around, and ran away.
Watching the little girl run into the distance, Yanqing thought to himself reflectively, "Her swordplay… I feel like I've experienced it before. Who is it?"
…
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Jing Yuan: Ah, Yanqing, you actually fought Master? ]
Looking at the content of the inventory livestream, Jing Yuan's eyes widened. Although he was confident that he was no weaker than his master now, he knew Yanqing's amateur skills all too well. Let alone defeating Jingliu, whether Yanqing could last ten moves against him was a question.
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Jingliu: This little brother's swordsmanship is decent, but it lacks a bit of refinement. Last time, after I slashed him once, he fainted directly. ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Stelle: Yanqing: 'Of five people, I must fight three.' ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - March 7th: Stelle, what are you doing? What nonsense are you talking about? ]
March 7th, who was sitting on the same bed as Stelle, looked at her curiously.
"I don't know either. This sentence just popped into my head suddenly." Looking at her best friend and "wife's" gaze, Stelle shook her head in confusion, not knowing why she had blurted that out.
[ Genshin Impact - Xianyun: This little girl is somewhat similar to Shenhe when she was a child. They both like to wear hair buns. ]
[ Genshin Impact - Shenhe: Alright, Master, please stop talking! ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Elysia: What a cute little girl, I really want to hold her and sleep. ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Kevin: Ely, she's still just a child! ]
…
Then, the scene shifted. The figures of Jing Yuan, Caelus, and Jingliu appeared on the screen. Caelus and Jingliu were holding hands, looking incredibly sweet.
"Hahahahahahaha, I didn't expect that the Mara-Struck condition could be cured using 'this method'? Congratulations, congratulations!" Jing Yuan said to the two in front of him with a face full of congratulations.
"Hehehe, I will spend my whole life protecting Miss Jingliu!" Caelus was also extremely excited, speaking with a face full of smiles.
"Then… for the days to come, please take good care of me!" Jingliu also held Caelus's arm with a smile.
"Speaking of which… where is my little junior sister? Why isn't she here today…" Just as Jing Yuan remembered something and was about to ask, he was interrupted by a sudden sound of crying.
"Waaaaahhhhhhh, Master Jing Yuan!" A cry came from not far away, and Jing Yuan found it extremely familiar.
Hearing this somewhat familiar voice, Jing Yuan couldn't help but turn his head. When he saw who was coming, he was completely stunned. He said in disbelief, "Eh, eh, eh… Yanqing, who did you spar with to get beaten up like this?"
"A grey-haired girl I've never seen before. Her swordsmanship is so powerful!" Yanqing looked extremely aggrieved, tears streaming down his face.
"Strange… the Xianzhou hasn't had any other visitors lately!" Hearing his disciple's words, Jing Yuan was stunned. He then fell into deep thought, stroking his chin and trying to recall if anyone had visited the Xianzhou recently.
Meanwhile, Caelus and Jingliu, who were standing aside, began to discuss in shock.
"Hey, wifey, the injuries on Yanqing look so much like…" Caelus's eyes widened as he looked at the battered Yanqing, whispering to Jingliu.
"Yes… our baby said earlier she was going to find someone to spar with. Could it be…" Jingliu was also stunned, but she quickly realized, covering her mouth in disbelief.
…
[ Honkai: Star Rail - Stelle: I really didn't expect my bratty brother's descendant to be so fierce, actually beating Yanqing into this pathetic state. ]
[ Honkai: Star Rail - March 7th: This little girl is too fierce, right? How old is she, and she already defeated young master Yanqing, who has been immersed in swordsmanship for years? What will happen when she grows up? ]
[ Genshin Impact - Zhongli: Children with extraordinary talent are indeed rare. ]
[ Honkai Impact 3rd - Raiden Mei: This little girl is indeed very powerful. If she is nurtured a bit, she will definitely be someone who shakes the universe in the future. ]
Although everyone knew that this little girl didn't actually exist, they still expressed their admiration.
…
"Daddy, Mommy~~" Just then, a little girl's voice came from not far away.
Hearing this voice, the four people present turned their heads. They saw a grey-haired girl with hair buns running towards Caelus and Jingliu.
"Whew~ The food on the Xianzhou is really delicious, burp" The little girl said, letting out a burp.
Just then, the little girl suddenly noticed Jing Yuan and Yanqing, who was hiding behind him. She said with delight, "Senior Brother Jing Yuan, and Brother Yanqing whom I just defeated, hello!"
"Senior Brother???" Hearing the little girl's address to his master, Yanqing's eyes widened as he cried out in disbelief.
"Haha, this little girl can be considered my junior sister. You should call her—" Just as Jing Yuan was introducing her to Yanqing, he was suddenly interrupted by the little girl.
"Call me Aunt!" The little girl looked at Yanqing with a grin.
Then, the scene shifted, and the little girl returned to Caelus and Jingliu.
At this moment, the little girl said excitedly, "Mommy~ I defeated so many opponents today~ Praise me, praise me!"
"Our baby is so great. Did you remember to hold back?" Hearing her daughter's words, Jingliu smiled, stroking her head and praising her.
