Chapter 580 - 586: Did Hoolay Cancel My Account? Mother Comes to Take Her Daughter Home
Her hand trembled slightly.She turned around.
In the light,
she finally saw that figure.
The familiar soft white fox ears,
the familiar green eyes,
the familiar smile.
It was her…
It was really Tingyun!
Yukong had prepared a thousand words, rehearsed the posture for their reunion, and meticulously planned every detail…
But reality came too quickly.
All her preparations became futile.
No words were needed.
She stepped forward.
And embraced Tingyun!
"Welcome… home…"
Xikui, standing beside them, was moved to tears but didn't forget to take out her Jade Abacus to capture this touching moment. She would definitely post it on her social media later—it was bound to go viral…
Rubbing her reddened eyes,
Xikui couldn't help but speak up, "Lady Yukong, although Miss Tingyun has indeed returned, it seems she no longer has a home…"
Yukong's warm expression shifted slightly.
"What are you talking about…"
Suddenly,
she realized!
Yes.
It had all been torn down.
They hadn't had time to rebuild yet!
She came back too early!
Tingyun, too, seemed to sense that something was amiss.
She looked around, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes.
Shouldn't this be her home?
She couldn't have misremembered.
Her memories shouldn't have been tampered with.
Her gaze shifted past Yukong.
Tingyun's breath caught!
What was she seeing!?
Bare walls, utter devastation!
This…
This place had been completely stripped!
Not just her bronze mirror, potted plants, clothes, and accessories…
Not a single piece of furniture remained!
Damn it!
Who could have done this!!!
Pain,
such pain!
Seeing Tingyun's expression turn grim, Xikui's mind raced, and a bold idea took shape!
"Um… Miss Tingyun, don't be too upset."
"This can be explained!"
Tingyun turned with difficulty, "What's there to explain?"
Xikui took a deep breath.
Her tone grew serious.
"It was Hoolay."
"Hoolay?"
"Right."
Tingyun's gaze immediately turned subtle.
"You're saying... Hoolay escaped from The Shackling Prison, first barged into the Sky-Faring Commission and wrecked my workstation, then went and smashed up my home, taking away all the furniture and personal belongings, leaving nothing behind?"
Xikui's smile instantly stiffened.
Gritting her teeth, she replied, "Yes... that's right!"
"Don't believe me? Ask Lady Yukong!"
Yukong herself was a bit at a loss.
She could only vaguely respond, "Uh... the Hoolay incident did indeed cause a certain degree of damage to the Luofu..."
Of course.
There was something Yukong didn't say.
—It was limited to The Shackling Prison!
At that time, due to the early leak of the Honkai: Star Rail storyline, the Luofu immediately increased its defenses, not allowing Hoolay to step out of The Shackling Prison.
What happened afterward was rather bizarre.
Hoolay seemed to have encountered the Self-Annihilator Acheron and the Stellaron Hunters...
Later eyewitness reports showed Hoolay appearing at an auction house dozens of star systems away!
Of course, he was there as an auction item.
Rumors had it that in the end, a mysterious buyer from Yaoqing purchased Hoolay...
But these are all digressions.
At this moment.
Xikui added:
"Oh, Miss Tingyun, Hoolay also incidentally closed your account during his crime spree... Everything he did is truly a mess of a ledger."
"Now that you're back, we can properly address these compensations."
Tingyun suddenly laughed.
"Hoolay... he was used as a tool to balance the books, wasn't he?"
"Xikui, you didn't think I was just some ordinary citizen with no experience in commerce, did you?"
As soon as these words were spoken.
The atmosphere instantly became awkward!
Indeed, it was all a bit too presumptuous.
These tactics might fool the average person, but how could they possibly deceive Miss Tingyun, a representative of the merchant guild?
It's entirely possible that Miss Tingyun had encountered similar situations before.
She was all too familiar with this kind of ledger-balancing method...
Tingyun took a deep breath.
She looked up at the sky.
In the distance, Starskiffs came and went along the flight routes, like an endless stream.
"It's a miracle I'm even alive to return..."
"These material possessions are but fleeting clouds."
"Besides, with things like Honkai: Star Rail now, my most precious things will always be recorded in this game, and no one can take them away..."
Yukong looked at Tingyun with a kind expression: "You haven't changed a bit."
"No matter what happens, no matter how you feel inside, you always put on a calm and composed front."
"Don't worry, I've already contacted the Artisanship Commission. Your residence will be rebuilt soon, and many of your recovered clothes and jewelry are with me..."
Tingyun smiled gently: "It's alright, Lady Yukong, this time, I'm not hiding anything~"
"This time, my main purpose for returning is to bid farewell to my hometown and to see you..."
"Next, I'll embark on a new journey."
"Remember? My dream... has always been to travel the stars and explore the universe!"
"Now, I can finally let go of my worries and fulfill this dream."
Yukong's lips quivered slightly.
There were many things she wanted to say... but in the end, it all turned into a relieved smile.
"I understand."
"I'm truly proud and happy for the person you've become."
"The outside world is truly wonderful, but don't forget... Don't Forget About Home."
"Mm."
Seeing this scene.
Xikui, who was standing nearby, felt her eyes welling up again.
Her tear threshold is just too low!
Quickly diverting her attention.
Ah, the plot!
I think I just heard something about the "Xianzhou Messenger" in the plot!
In the game's storyline, is Miss Tingyun also going home?
...
At this moment, the plot has shifted to The Radiant Feldspar.
On the deck.
Himeko, who had been enjoying the view, turned around: "You're back?"
March 7th nodded: "Yeah, we ran into some trouble and got delayed. As for the details... let's wait for Uncle Yang to explain when he gets back."
"Has the Xianzhou Messenger arrived yet?"
"Yes, we've already had a chat. Coincidentally, it's someone you know."
Following Himeko's gaze.
A pair of long legs strode over with steady steps.
The barrage of comments erupted!
...
"It really is Yukong coming to pick her up!!"
"Yunbao's eyes are shining!"
"Her gaze is practically pulling threads!."
"No need to guess, it's definitely her."
"To find Tingyun, Yukong used every connection she had in her life, even alerting a general."
"A mother coming to take her daughter home."
"Facing each other without words, only a thousand lines of tears."
"Yukong's life has been full of farewells, but this time, she finally gets a reunion."
"Yukong's tone sounds like she's on the verge of tears..."
"If I were Tingyun, I'd just throw myself into Yukong's arms... Wuwuwu Lady Yukong, I've missed you so much!!!"
...
Seeing such comments.
Yukong's mouth twitched slightly.
She sighed helplessly: "Sigh... some of the comments players make are really... inappropriate!"
"They really should add a one-click block feature to filter out all these indecent comments."
Xikui thought to herself: "If they all got blocked, what would I even watch..."
Tingyun, however, said calmly: "Lady Yukong, I actually think these comments are quite good."
"Some of them really express what I'm feeling inside..."
Yukong cleared her throat.
"Then... let's find a place to sit first. We can watch the rest of the plot together."
"Mm, as you wish, Lady Yukong."
