Yao Si prepared herself, heading over at a fast speed. Just as Mu Xuan had said, a huge crowd had gathered suddenly, while the remaining ships stayed stationary. The person nearest to her had a fire ability, and he was summoning bursts of flame towards the caterpillar. There was already a visible burnt area on the bug's skin.

The moment Yao Si steadied herself, she felt a familiar surge of energy, and a burst of joy engulfed her as she directed the energy towards the massive caterpillar. Right away, there was a loud sizzling sound…

The flame of the warrior beside her was extinguished!

-_-

"Er… It's a mistake." She hadn't expected her ability to be from the water series, and she had even accidentally directed it at the other person. 

He glared at her, taking two steps to the side as he continued to burn the bug with his flame.

Yao Si calmed down. She felt the surge of the energy once more, then took a deep breath, carefully directing the energy.

The next moment, there was a sizzling sound…

The fire was extinguished again.

"Do you have something against my flame?" the warrior asked swiftly, his gaze more ferocious than before.

"Apologies, apologies," Yao Si apologized continuously.

She was totally confused now. Even though she hadn't aimed in the man's direction, the water had still come out on its own!

"Hmph!" The warrior rolled his eyes, dismissing her. He took a few steps to the side once more, and for the third time summoned his flame.

The next moment... sizzling… The fire was extinguished again!

He took a few more steps to the side for the fourth time.

Sizzling...

"..."

Yao Si continued to look confused. Even though she had no intention of extinguishing his flame, somehow, whenever she tried to summon the energy within her, the water would direct itself towards the flame, gushing over to extinguish it. The force was so overwhelming she wasn't able to suppress it.

The warrior's veins were already showing. Disregarding the caterpillar, he flew straight in her direction.

"Sis, do you bear a grudge against me?"

"... No."

"Then why do you keep extinguishing my flame? What's so great about the water ability? Honestly speaking, are you friends with the beast?"

"... I'm sorry!" It really wasn't on purpose, she couldn't control it…

"Hey sis," he tried to reason with her, "You..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the caterpillar howled out all of a sudden. Lifting its head, it spat out a green substance in the man's direction."

"Watch out!" Almost instinctively, Yao Si activated her ability, and a gigantic wave formed, heading straight towards the warrior, washing the green substance away…  Mmhh, the warrior was washed away too!

○  ̄ _

The warrior's heart sank as he was swept about thirty meters away. His ability had already disappeared, even the small flame that had been floating on his palm was gone now.

Er... This warrior, can we negotiate first, can you not hit my face?

Awhoo!

Without allowing her time to process, the massive caterpillar howled once more. It widened its mouth to spit out more green substance than before, and this time, it was directed at her.

F*ck!

Yao Si's heart sank. She wanted to summon her ability once more, but her body felt empty. Was karma striking now? At the most critical moment, her ability just abandoned her?

The disgusting green substance was heading straight for her.

Suddenly, a translucent barrier enclosed her, blocking the substance's path. The next moment Yao Si heard a familiar voice.

"Are you alright?"

She froze, then shook her head, almost forgetting about the jacket she had brought along. 

Yao Si calmed down, but just as she did, a loud drop sounded, like a drop of water hitting the ground. The celestial enchantment that trapped the caterpillar cracked slightly. 

The massive caterpillar who had been struggling just a moment ago shook, and like a TV screen with bad reception, it flickered slightly before disappearing entirely. 

Ah! What is this situation? It ran?

It wasn't just Yao Si who shocked either, everyone present was in a daze as well. The space in front of them was empty, as though the galactic beast never been there.

"What happened?"

Mu Xuan frowned, his face sinking. "This… was not an ordinary galactic beast."

What did he mean? Just as she was about to ask him, the soaking wet brother came flying back.

"Hey, sis..."

"I'm sorry, I couldn't control my ability just now!" Yao Si shouted out her apology. She had never expected to wash him away, but at such a critical moment, she had released all of her one use ability.

"Do you think an apology is enough?" The man flicked his drenched sleeves. "Hey little lady, did I owe you in my previous life?"

"How about... I pay you back?"

"Forget it, since you're still new, I'll leave it at this!" He scoffed, then took a good look at Yao Si and added abruptly, "How much are you going to compensate me?"

"..." Weren't you going to forget it?

Yao Si didn't have a grasp on the value of the galactic currency, so she opened her optical computer and typed a string of numbers. 

He lowered his head, his eyes focusing hard, and then seem satisfied. The anger instantly dissipated from his face. "Hahaha, forget it, forget it, fate brought us together, let's be friends. You can call me Huo Qi." Besides, in the celestial race's world, that bug wouldn't be able to escape. Even if he didn't burn him this time, it didn't matter.

The man laughed brightly, his face friendly as he said, "You can call me Old Qi. How do O address the both of you?" Technically, she had saved him, even if her method was unconventional. Thankfully she had mon— Cough! She had sincerity. 

"I'm Yao Si," she replied, then turned to the person beside her. "He's called..." She paused, remembering Mu Xuan's insane popularity in the Galaxy. She hesitated slightly, debating whether to tell the truth or not.

"Mu Xuan!" Before she could reply, the man gave his name himself.

Wow! Wasn't he going incognito to get her to practice? As the ruler of the bloodlings, could he really reveal his name just like that?

"Mu Xuan?" Huo Qi eyes went wide. "Your name..."

Indeed, he could recognize him after all! 

"You have the same name as the ruler of the bloodlings!" Huo Qi exclaimed. "You must be his fan too!"

"Ah? Ah!"
