Starry Sky Railway: Starting with a furious outburst at Aha

Chapter 100 Operation to Capture Suiyang

"What?" Zhou Yuan was somewhat surprised.

Since Huanlong entered his body, he has only exchanged a few words with him at most. How could he have been recognized so easily?

If such a sensitive detection method truly existed, how could it not find a tiny sun?

It probably wasn't referring to me... Zhou Yuan thought to himself, and stood there motionless.

Sure enough, a noise came from behind. The person who couldn't stand the silence any longer chuckled and walked out of the bamboo forest.

"Oh dear, it's so cold here."

Zhou Yuan turned around in astonishment, dumbfounded.

Su Chang? There's another expert!

What is she doing here?

"Who are you? Why are you here?!" Xueyi gripped the Demon-Slaying Cone tightly, ready for battle.

"Don't be nervous, my name is Su Chang. I'm a new member of the Luofu Cloud Cavalry. My hometown is Yaoqing Immortal Ship." Su Chang waved her hands repeatedly and handed over her identity token.

"I see..." After carefully reading Su Chang's identity, Xue Yi's suspicions lessened considerably. "Then what is your purpose in coming here?"

“Um…” Su Chang pointed to Zhou Yuan and explained to everyone, “I came here with him.”

"Me?" Zhou Yuan pointed to himself. "This girl named Su Chang, we don't seem to know each other, do we?"

"Yes, but you know Xiao Guizi."

As she spoke, Su Chang explained the whole story to everyone, which all started on the afternoon of Zhou Yuan and Gui Naifen's live broadcast.

"...I sensed something was wrong the moment I saw his eyes, so I quickly finished what I was doing and went to visit Xiao Gui Zi. Sure enough! She couldn't sleep all night..."

“That’s called sleeplessness…” Zhou Yuan reminded him.

Su Chang glared at Zhou Yuan and continued, "She couldn't sleep at night... and then the next day she inexplicably started giggling and told me what kind of play she was going to act in. This morning she spent a long time putting on makeup. I've never seen her so serious before, it's like she's going on a blind date!"

“I felt something was very wrong, so I followed her all the way, and finally found you!” Su Chang pointed at Zhou Yuan, “and then I followed her here!”

"No, what's wrong with this?" Zhou Yuan asked, puzzled.

"Anyway, that's how I got here... I don't see anything wrong with it now, can I leave now?" Su Chang chuckled at the members of the Ten Kings Division.

"It's so gloomy here. I've only managed to hide until now because of my love for Xiao Guizi."

“It’s a pity, we can’t.” Xueyi shook her head. “When I entered Suiyuan, I activated the sealing formation. Now, the only way to break the seal is to deal with Suiyang or wait for reinforcements to arrive.”

"Huh?" Su Chang lowered her head and thought for a long time before slowly nodding, "Okay, alright."

"Do you need my help?"

“Now that we’ve reached a consensus, I’ll provide the tools for everyone,” said Han Ya, lifting a huge wooden box from under the table.

Upon opening it, one finds a dazzling array of props, which look much more sophisticated than the items in Huo Huo's little box, clearly indicating that these are all genuine items.

"This is the Moon-Concealing Gourd, used to trap the scorching sun." She took out some palm-sized jade gourds and gave one to each person.

"This is a talisman for expelling impurities, used to force the withered yang energy out of the host's body... And this is called the yang energy stone, which is made from the yang energy that has lost its mind and has been refined in a furnace. It will glow when it senses a person who has been possessed by the yang energy."

As he spoke, the crow waved the Sunstone near Huo Huo's tail: "Look, this situation shows that Huo Huo has not been possessed by the tail, and the seal is still effective."

"...Huo Huo, speaking of which, why hasn't your tail spoken for so long?"

"Grandpa Tail..." Huo Huo glanced at Zhou Yuan, unsure how to begin.

"Alright, alright, stop thinking nonsense, I'm still here." Left with no other choice, Huo Huo's tail had to detach and transform into a floating ball of spirit fire.

"Aaaaaah! There's a ghost!!!"

Upon seeing Sui Yang's true face, Su Chang, who had been so righteous just moments before, immediately let out a miserable howl and retreated rapidly, almost throwing herself over her shoulder.

Zhou Yuan had no choice but to reach out and pull him back, then turned to ask a crucial question.

"Does this Time Stone only light up when it encounters someone whose body has been possessed? It doesn't light up when someone is possessed?"

“Possession won’t light up,” the crow nodded. “It’s actually quite easy to distinguish between possession and body snatching. After possession, the Suiyang Stone will devour the original owner’s memories, making it difficult to identify by ordinary methods. That’s why we need to use this Suiyang Stone.”

"Possession is simply the manipulation of the body, which can be observed through the aura surrounding the person and their words and actions."

"A halo?"

"The sun is mostly a cool white color. Once the environment gets dark, its power is more likely to leak out and expose its location. This is why Suiyuan Cave is always dark."

"Of course, Suiyang can also sense the location of other Suiyang, but the other side will also sense it."

"I see." Zhou Yuan nodded.

This is just like Parasyte...it looks exactly the same.

"Now that everyone understands, shall we take action?" Han Ya distributed a talisman for exorcising evil spirits and a stone of year-end energy to each person.

As a master of capturing the essence of life, Zhou Yuan naturally took a share without hesitation, and headed towards Yanleting, where the most martial arts officers were.

"Once we split up, we must use the Suiyang Stone to confirm whether the person before us has been possessed when we meet again. Everyone, remember this!"

Everyone nodded and headed to their respective destinations, while Zhou Yuan, carrying the copper coin sword, walked slowly and calmly.

"Are all these props useful?" he asked Huanlong in his mind.

"Yes, my benefactor, these tools all possess a peculiar aura that can target the scorching sun."

"That's good..." Zhou Yuan thought to himself, and said to Huanlong, "Don't take action without my permission."

"Isn't my benefactor in a hurry?"

"No rush, let's play with them for a while." Zhou Yuan waved his hand.

Since defeating Cocolia, he hasn't had a proper battle. His most recent fight with Genon was extremely abstract and didn't even qualify as a battle.

To be honest, he was really itching to try it.

"I haven't trained my strength in so long, and I haven't been eating properly, so my strength has dropped quite a bit. I should be able to have a good fight now..." Thinking this, Zhou Yuan suddenly accelerated and headed towards Yanleting.

Before Zhou Yuan could get close, he saw three humanoid outlines of spirit fire flickering in the darkness; they were three possessed Netherworld Martial Officers!

Zhou Yuan's face lit up with joy, and he immediately launched an attack.

boom! Boom boom!

Three explosions rang out in succession, and the three military officers were blasted away on the spot, crashing into the rocks and losing consciousness.

It seems I overestimated Suiyang's strength... Zhou Yuan sighed helplessly, stepped forward and affixed the exorcism talisman to the soldier's forehead, opened the plug of the Hidden Moon Gourd, and immediately saw a small wisp of spiritual fire rise from the soldier's head and be absorbed into it.

"Continue." Zhou Yuan pressed his advantage, succeeding repeatedly, but he didn't notice a short, dark figure observing him from the shadows.

"Such...such a powerful body," the shadowy figure laughed. "Once I possess him, I can forcibly break this great formation, and then..."

Thinking this, the shadowy figure moved and disappeared.

......

boom!

The fight ended in just a few punches, and Zhou Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. This time, there was a child among the martial arts officers, and he almost couldn't bring himself to hit him.

Fortunately, Zhou Yuan has never been one to respect the elderly or care for the young, and after hesitating for a second, he knocked the child down.

He twisted open the Hidden Moon Gourd and was about to step forward to attach the talisman when he suddenly saw a pupil made of spiritual fire fly out of the child's body!

"Hahaha, beautiful body, I'm in!!!"

"Not good!" Zhou Yuan instinctively wanted to back away, but suddenly realized that he remembered Huanlong.

So he suppressed his laughter and watched helplessly as the spiritual fire entered his body.
