51 Chapter - Against The Heavens Yu Nian
“Huh?” Bai Cheng’s face was full of surprise.
She checked the time; it was 1:30 AM.
She immediately replied in confusion, “You’re still traveling at night?”
Yu Nian: “I didn’t want you to wait alone outside for so long, and of course, the most important thing is that I wanted to see you right away!”
But Bai Cheng was clearly not concerned about that: “So... is your train alright?”
Forcing travel at night, if they were lucky and encountered few fallen trees blocking the path, it would be fine.
But if they were unlucky, forget an hour; half an hour would be enough to deplete the train’s durability.
This was completely using resources to travel!
Yu Nian: “It’s fine, my employees can help clear the way, and as long as my repair speed is fast enough, the train won’t break!”
Bai Cheng was stunned; this girl was absolutely reckless!
However, thinking that the other party was once the top ranked Pioneer in her channel, she probably wasn't so poor as to be described as such.
Bai Cheng also showed a hint of a smile; it seemed they could enter the station early tonight.
She immediately replied, “Have you entered the station platform yet?”
Yu Nian: “Not ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) yet, the large triangle is right in front of me. Xiao Cheng, didn’t you say you still had 10km to go?”
Bai Cheng: “You can enter the station now, I’ll depart immediately!”
Traveling ten kilometers within an hour was no problem at all.
Yu Nian: “Okay!”
Bai Cheng immediately went to the door and called out, “Chi Yan, go clear the road obstacles. Zi Yuan, get on the train, we’re ready to enter the station!”
“Yes, Miss.”
The two voices came simultaneously from different directions.
The next second, Chi Yan transformed into his true form, charging into the mist with his body ablaze to clear the way.
Zi Yuan also leaped nimbly, once again standing on the train’s roof.
As Bai Cheng pulled down the control lever, the train slowly started, its speed increasing rapidly.
The mist rushed past on both sides; Bai Cheng could no longer clearly see the path ahead, only a faint glow of fire flickering in the mist.
The odometer on the detection platform also began its countdown.
Suddenly, a massive triangular curtain hung suspended in the mist, appearing before Bai Cheng’s eyes!
Even without her operation, the train slowly decelerated.
Chi Yan transformed back into human form and returned to the train; at this point, the triangular curtain began to turn to ash, and the train smoothly drove in.
“Arrived at Platform: #2 Snow Mountain Castle Station!”
“Platform Type: Team Platform”
“Platform Introduction: None yet”
“Remaining departure time: 6 hours”
Looking at the screen that suddenly lit up, Bai Cheng’s delicate brows raised slightly.
“Why is there no introduction this time?”
But from the name, it seemed like a castle?
Bai Cheng immediately opened the train door, and the entire enclosed triangular space suddenly lit up, as if it were daytime.
She looked back to observe her surroundings; this was still a single-track stopping station.
This meant that even if Yu Nian’s train entered the platform, she wouldn't be with her.
When she had just entered the station, Bai Cheng had even pulled the whistle, but she received no response, which also indicated that the two of them did not enter the platform at the same location.
Bai Cheng immediately sent a message to Yu Nian, but received no reply.
“It seems she’s already gone in.”
Bai Cheng stepped out onto the platform: “Let’s go too.”
Team platforms were almost no different from single-person platforms, so she didn't have to worry about the train’s safety, nor did she need to leave employees to guard it.
As she pressed her fingerprint and scanned her iris on the futuristic door in front of her, a line of information immediately appeared on the small screen beside it.
“Logged in: Lieche Zhang (Train Conductor) - Title Pioneer Bai Cheng”
“Login Platform Fixed Reward: One random blueprint!”
“Departure countdown: 5 hours 59 minutes”
As the mechanical door slowly opened, what came into view was a deep, dark corridor.
This time, it was no longer upward steps, but a winding, pitch-black flat path.
Zi Yuan was behind, while Chi Yan proactively walked in front of Bai Cheng to lead the way.
He snapped his fingers, and crimson flames danced on his fingertips, dispelling the surrounding darkness.
After walking for about three to five minutes, Bai Cheng and her two companions arrived at a spacious, pitch-black hall filled with dead silence.
Chi Yan was unaffected by the darkness; he walked ahead to the wall and used the flames in his hand to light the sconces on the wall.
With a hum, the flames ignited, following the pre-set track and lighting all the sconces along the way.
The orange-red firelight instantly brightened the entire dark hall, allowing Bai Cheng to clearly see the scene before her.
A red carpet, as if stained with blood, stretched straight to the end.
There was a throne there, a throne made entirely of white bones, its edges piled high with pale skulls.
And above the throne hung a black robe, with a huge black scythe leaning against the armrest.
But before Bai Cheng could observe it closely, a voice she was incredibly familiar with and felt deeply anxious about suddenly came from the darkness to one side.
“Xiao Cheng, be careful!”
“Quick, hide in the shadows, don’t let the light hit you!”
Bai Cheng froze, still not reacting, when she suddenly noticed that the black robe not far in front of her moved.
A pair of deep blue lights flickered within the wide hood, and a sudden surge of black energy abruptly grasped the scythe.
The next second, it leaped from the throne, moving so fast that only a black afterimage remained.
A dark blade of light instantly slashed towards Bai Cheng!
Clang—!
Zi Yuan was a step faster, drawing her sword to block the incoming black scythe.
Chi Yan’s reaction was also quick; his flaming fist punched out fiercely, a massive, scorching wave of heat sweeping through, abruptly blasting the black-robed figure away.
Thud! The black robe fell to the ground, the scythe slipped from its grasp, and the faint blue light in the hood slowly extinguished.
“Nian Nian, what did you just say?” Bai Cheng turned to look at the shadows nearby, her face bewildered.
At this moment, Yu Nian was dumbfounded, her entire being still in a state of shock.
“No, nothing…”
She emerged from the darkness, and under the dim light cast by the sconces, the two finally had their first epic meeting.
But when Bai Cheng saw Yu Nian’s attire, she suddenly froze.
It was still that 70/30 split, pink-tipped curly hair falling to her shoulders, a clean, fair face without any excessive makeup, and a pink off-the-shoulder T-shirt on her upper body.
Her lower body was denim shorts, but on her legs…
Fishnet stockings, garter stockings, pantyhose, white stockings, black stockings, slouch socks... she was wearing at least six pairs of socks!
This made Yu Nian’s already slender and long legs appear somewhat bulky at the moment, and if one looked closely, they would also notice that her shorts were bulging, clearly indicating she was wearing more than one pair of underwear.
Huh?
Bai Cheng was dumbfounded.
At this moment, Yu Nian also reacted, but she clearly didn't notice Bai Cheng’s unusual expression.
Her face was currently filled only with the excitement and joy of seeing her good best friend.
“Xiao Cheng~ I missed you so much!”
Saying that, she pounced forward, and then... swept past Bai Cheng to embrace Zi Yuan next to her.
Bai Cheng: ????
