A Major Stir

The story about the Goddess of Beauty quickly spread across the Star Network.

The truth will eventually come out.

Moreover, the Federation fleet was far too large on the small, Abandoned Planet where the Fanatic of the Evil God planned to hold their sacrificial ceremony.

So many people witnessed the terrifying pressure of the Evil God's descent.

Witness the breathtaking moment when the Goddess of Beauty reveals her true form.

Although the military had issued a gag order, Federation soldiers are human beings too.

After returning to base, they typed a few words of reflection on their personal terminals and couldn't help but add a few words when letting their families know they were safe.

These are all unavoidable.

After all, it's really hard to hold back something so exciting.

These fragmented pieces of information are like countless tiny streams.

Eventually, they merged into a mighty river that could not be contained.

As a result, the topic of Gods, which had finally subsided on the Star Network, exploded again overnight.

Meanwhile, another message began to circulate on Star Network.

The Jade Qilin Clan, an ancient clan renowned Interstellar for its Gemstone mines, has kept a low profile for countless years.

Recently, there has been a sudden and significant development.

Their fleet of spaceships departed from their home planet and headed towards the same coordinates in a grand procession.

Curious onlookers checked the coordinates and discovered it was indeed Landon Star.

What is the background of the Jade Qilin Clan?

That's an ancient race that's said to have survived since the Age of Age of the Gods. They're said to be blessed by a certain Gods, and any random stone from their race could buy an asteroid in the outer rings.

It's hard to miss the attention of such a reclusive tycoon who mobilized his entire force to travel to a remote industrial planet.

When their gaze followed the trajectory of the Jade Qilin Clan's spaceship and finally landed on this planet, everyone was stunned.

Is this Landon Star?

This planet was completely different from the images in their database. The once gray and murky atmosphere had become clear and transparent, and the perpetual industrial smog had vanished.

Those lakes that once churned with oil.

Today, the water is clear and blue, with lush aquatic plants and schools of fish swimming around.

On the ruins of the mining area, which had been exposed for more than half a century, a new layer of green has sprouted at some unknown time. Wildflowers are scattered among the grass, swaying gracefully in the wind.

Blue sky and white clouds, green fields and blue waves.

It has a pristine, unspoiled appearance, untouched by any pollution.

Compared to the footage showing the same disheveled appearance just a day earlier, such a dramatic change cannot be explained by any scientific means other than a miracle.

Many intelligent people have connected these two things.

The appearance of the Goddess of Beauty during the sacrificial ceremony of the Evil God, the miracles that occurred on Landon Star, and the mobilization of the Landon Star Jade Qilin Clan towards Landon—the only thing that could make them do this is probably the Goddess of Beauty This Venerable.

For an ancient people to suddenly travel to a small planet in such an almost reverential manner, there seems to be no other reason than the presence of their guardian deity.

Just as these clues were being hotly debated on the Star Network, the Jade Qilin Clan definitively concluded the discussion with their actions.

They bought Landon Star outright.

That's right, it's a permanent ownership of the entire planet.

The transaction was completed in just one day, as if they were afraid someone would steal it from them.

After the news broke, the current Clan Leader of the Jade Qilin Clan issued a brief statement on the Star Network:

Landon Star is now the property of the Jade Qilin Clan, and all native inhabitants of the planet have the right to reside there permanently. Furthermore, any unauthorized commercial development is prohibited.

This statement was extremely strong.

The Jade Qilin Clan cannot tolerate a planet that has been personally purified by the Divine Power the Goddess of Beauty.

It has once again become that heavily polluted, industrial Abandoned Planet it once was.

To them, this was blasphemy against God.

And so, this remote industrial planet, which 90% of the Federation's citizens had never heard of before, was born.

--Landon Star also came into view.

Meanwhile, some conglomerates that had already sensed a business opportunity and were on their way were furious when they first heard that Landon Star had been taken over.

But when they saw who the buyer was, they silently swallowed their protests.

They are indeed a conglomerate.

However, the Jade Qilin Clan is the most powerful conglomerate among conglomerates.

Netizens on the Star Network were amazed and exclaimed in amazement:

This scale, this efficiency, this protective stance.

They truly are a race blessed by the Goddess of Beauty.

Immediately following this, the Jade Qilin Clan released another major declaration.

This is an official announcement released directly by the Jade Qilin Clan's official account, bearing the clan emblem seal.

The announcement was worded solemnly, and the seal at the end gleamed with a faint golden Flowing Light on the Star Network.

In short, the current Clan Leader of the Jade Qilin Clan has decided to step down, and the new Clan Leader will be selected through an open selection process within the clan, open to all Jade Qilin Clan.

This news caused a huge uproar as soon as it was released.

This is an extremely luxurious room.

The four walls are inlaid with uncut natural Gemstones that have been polished to a mirror-like finish.

Amethyst, Blue Amber, Moonstone, Sun Gold Obsidian...

Each of these pieces alone could buy a decent apartment in the inner ring of the city.

Here, however, it's merely basic wall decoration.

The desks are all carved from a single, enormous natural Gemstone.

Beneath the cut surface, the naturally formed textures inside the Gemstone resemble a watercolor painting frozen for millions of years.

Behind the Gemstone table, a man with long, flowing hair was casually fiddling with the screen of Lightbrain, his chin resting on one hand. He had exceptionally handsome features, with long eyebrows that reached his temples and slightly upturned eyes.

Even among the Jade Qilin Clan, renowned for its beauty, this face is considered top-tier.

However, his expression was languid and relaxed at the moment, with a faint smile in his eyes.

Without looking up, he asked, "Have the messages been sent out?"

The clan official standing before the table quickly nodded in response, his tone respectful yet tinged with barely suppressed confusion:

"Clan Leader, are you... really sure?"

The long-haired man finally raised his eyes and glanced at him.

What have you decided?

He leaned back in his chair, his fingertips tapping absently on the Gemstone tabletop, producing a crisp, melodious tinkling sound.

"The god has finally awakened. And our Jade Qilin Clan Leader has always served the god. Clan Leader, how can you possibly give up this opportunity?"

The clan affairs officer finally couldn't hold back and asked the question that had been on his mind. He wasn't very old, and he had gotten to this position entirely because of his outstanding professional abilities.

He is usually careful with his words and actions.

They never questioned any of the Clan Leader's decisions.

But this time, he really couldn't hold it in any longer.

His tone conveyed less of bewilderment and more of deep sorrow for the Clan Leader.
