Xie Yusheng looked at the information sent by that Qianxing person.

He's not exactly a professional.

However, he consulted many experts before making "The Legend of Nantianmen" a science fiction masterpiece, and learned a lot of professional knowledge from them.

Based on his limited professional knowledge, this missile...

It actually seems quite plausible.

At least the data provided by the other party is much more detailed and reliable than his data.

If a comparison must be made, the data he provided is like a toy, compared to the data of this Qianxing person...

It has roughly reached the level of a military-grade model.

"Judging from his statement, he actually made up game data and created a physical product?"

Xie Yusheng didn't know if the information above was true, but judging from the current situation...

But it does seem to make sense.

So...

"I can update my game data again."

Xie Yusheng smiled.

But the smile didn't last long before it froze.

After a long while, he sighed.

"Ring ring!"

Just then, the phone rang.

Xie Yusheng looked at the name displayed on the screen, a hint of impatience flashing in his eyes, but he still answered the phone in the end.

Soon, a gentle yet assertive voice came from inside. "Xiao Sheng, how have your conversations with Xiao Yu been lately?"

"Oh, very good."

"That's good. I've subtly hinted that Xiaoyu also has some feelings for you. As a boy, you should be more proactive and gentlemanly, and invite her out more often. The Didofen piano recital, the fireworks display at the Twin Towers, the talent show at the revolving restaurant—these places are all great for developing your relationship..."

The woman paused slightly, then said, "Are you even listening to your aunt? You're not going to waste your precious time, energy, and money playing games with those people, are you?"

"What game? That was something we developed together..."

Xie Yusheng's voice instinctively rose a little.

But after a moment, he stopped, and finally, he uttered three words: "It's gone."

"That's good. Although I'm not your biological mother, now that we're family, I'll treat you like my own mother. Everything I do will be for your benefit and to consider your future. What kind of future can you have playing games? The Qiao family's daughter is someone of immense status. Her family has billions in assets. The two of you together will save you decades of hard work..."

The woman spoke for a while, and finally said, "You don't think Auntie is being long-winded, do you?"

Xie Yusheng gripped his phone tightly, as if he wanted to crush it, but after a moment, he still said, "No, Auntie is doing this for my own good."

"I'm glad you understand Auntie's good intentions. By the way, I just got a tea tasting ticket for the pop diva Bai Fei's fan meeting. It's tomorrow afternoon. Come back later to pick it up, and then get ready to pick up Xiaoyu tomorrow."

"I see."

Xie Yusheng responded.

Finally, the somewhat agonizing phone call came to an end.

Xie Yusheng put down his phone, as if all the strength had been drained from his body. He sat slumped in his seat, his eyes vacant, seemingly uninterested in doing anything.

Qiao Siyu is not bad.

What he couldn't accept was this fate that was clearly arranged for him and that he had no way to resist.

Moreover, it is obvious that he and Qiao Siyu have different values.

She lives her princess dream at home, meticulously attending to every detail of her life and refusing to overlook anything.

Even when you go out to eat, the various rules and regulations can be overwhelming.

And what about him?

Although he was the "model child" since childhood, never losing to anyone in his studies and winning all sorts of academic awards and medals—this is why Qiao Siyu was attracted to him.

But in reality...

He is a very unconventional and spontaneous person.

Rather than dressing impeccably to listen to piano music, drink red wine, and eat exquisite food at a high-end restaurant, he prefers to wear a short-sleeved shirt and slippers to a barbecue stall downstairs with his business partners to enjoy skewers and beer.

Qiao Siyu mentioned that Athena could tell a series of stories from classical texts.

All he could think of were the five little heroes and the left-right-step-plus-A.

With such personality differences, how could they possibly have anything in common?

However, for the sake of the Xie Family's business, the elders insisted on bringing them together.

Unfortunately, he was quite famous among his peers when he was young, and Qiao Siyu did not object to this.

So...

"Now, this is all the useful thing I have left, and in fact... this is indeed all the useful thing I have left."

Xie Yusheng said.

When he first entered society, he was full of youthful vigor and used his family's five million to start his own game company. However, the harsh reality of the popularity of the Xianxia IP in recent years has worn down his edges.

He accomplished nothing.

He just loafs around at the observatory every day.

All his savings over the years have been poured into this game, "The Legend of Nantianmen," which has no end in sight. What else does he have left?

"It's time to wake up."

Xie Yusheng looked at the data that was being imported.

If you're going to make a game, you have to act like one.

Why not just make a quick and easy game to make easy money?

We must create a groundbreaking hard science fiction game that belongs to China, so that this game can truly stand on the international stage and show the world the true level of China's game industry.

A truly hardcore game isn't necessarily a good thing.

Just like making a movie, if it's too realistic, it won't attract many viewers.

Therefore, the path he chose was wrong from the very beginning.

At the very least, he shouldn't be walking this road.

Ambitious but unlucky.

That's all there is to it.

"That's fine then."

Xie Yusheng looked at the transmission progress and clicked close.

He gave up.

From now on, I'll just quietly be a lazy bum, lying on the road of living off a woman, rotting away until I die.

He looked at the message he had just sent to the "Qianxing person," pondered it, and decided to honestly reply to him, telling him that he was just an ordinary, unremarkable person.

He stopped after only a moment.

On the one hand, he had to type too many words, and at this point he was too lazy to explain.

On the other hand...

There was still a sliver of resentment in his heart.

Unwilling to accept that his painstakingly crafted "Chronicles of the Southern Heavenly Gate" had truly died so completely, leaving not even a ripple in this world.

Therefore...

He hesitated for a while before finally saying, "This information is very important to us. In order to repay our friends from Qianxing, we are willing to provide information on our most advanced equipment, hoping to help our friends from Qianxing repair their spaceship."

After sending the message, he sent all the relevant data about the Azure Phoenix Sky Platform and the Cheng Ying Mech from "The Chronicles of Nantianmen".

When transmitting the information, he pondered for a moment and added, "Some data cannot be described in specific words, and there may be flaws in the expression. Please understand."

In this way, at least the information belonging to the "Nantianmen Battle Chronicles" has not been completely erased.

Just in case...

Although the possibility is almost nonexistent, if the other side is indeed a powerful organization, it might be able to help him construct a detailed data image of the powerful weapons in "The Chronicles of Nantianmen".

After sending the message, he glanced again at the huge folders on his personal computer.

Click, right-click, drop down the list...

The cursor slowly moves to the "Delete" option.

He wanted to say goodbye to his future self.

However, when he clicked the "Delete" option, he seemed to have thought of something.

I quickly opened the folder and started searching. Before long, I found a folder named "Black Gold".

"At the time, I thought the description of black gold in this folder sounded very convincing, almost like it was real... Although there was a greater than 99% chance that the 'Qianxing person' on the other end was joking with me, what if these ideas could inspire our country's researchers?"

He muttered to himself, then found Professor Du Dongyuan's email address and sent the document to him.

Besides the black gold material, the Tianjian missile also seems to be quite impressive...

Immediately, he sent the document over again.

After doing all this, he let out a long sigh, feeling utterly lost...

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of the data transmission of the Nantianmen Battle Chronicles was heard.

Xie Yusheng snapped out of his daze and clicked delete.

Since it's a farewell, let's make it a complete one.

He pressed a few buttons on the instrument, clearing away all traces of his actions.

After doing all that, he suddenly felt much more relaxed.

"That's it then. From now on, I'll be a good freeloader."

Starlight City.

The capital of Star Province.

During this period, Starlight City experienced a series of upheavals and became noticeably depressed.

However, due to its rich foundation and its status as the capital of Star Province, even in times of decline, the city's population and prosperity are still unmatched by any other city in Star Province.

At this moment, in the Meteor Guard's residence, Su Wen was reviewing a series of intelligence reports.

"The Cold Moon Sect, the Purgatory Sect, and the Yellow Springs Sect have all quieted down because of the Divine Sword Tournament. Yellow Heaven Sect has also been too busy with the recent turmoil in Crocodile Dragon Marsh to pay attention to the situation in our Star Province. In the near future, the biggest threat to us is actually Dragon Sparrow Manor."

Su Wen reviewed the intelligence. "However, Dragon Sparrow Manor is also worried that after the Divine Sword Tournament, the demonic forces will undergo a reshuffle. In order to avoid a mutually destructive battle with our State Lord's Mansion, which would only benefit the demonic forces, they have chosen to remain inactive and wait for the outcome of the Divine Sword Tournament."

Nobody wants to move.

Their state governor's office might be able to take this opportunity to salvage the situation.

To turn the tide, they have two directions for attack.

One is the Nine Secrets Sword Sect, and the other is Lingxiao City, which uses Changjun City as a springboard.

"Although Gu Jinlai of Lingxiao City is backed by the Purgatory Sect, everyone knows the truth about his relationship with the Purgatory Sect. However... Gu Jinlai is no weakling. To deal with him, it seems the Star Lord will have to personally take action..."

Pick the softest persimmons.

Dragon Sparrow Manor was unwilling to fight them to the death, allowing the demonic forces to gain an advantage, and the same was true for their state lord's manor.

Su Wen looked at the intelligence reports about Gu Jinlai had conquered Baihe City and killed two Spirit Transformation cultivators, Tan Qingquan and Ye Yiren...

Never mind.

Although he had a blood feud with Gu Jinlai over the murder of his daughter, he had to admit one thing...

Gu Jinlai, they have been people not to be trifled with.

"Let's restore the Nine Secrets Sword Sect first."

Su asked in his heart.

But just then, a piece of intelligence caught his eye.

"Gu Jinlai possesses Secret Method capable of detecting all Spirit Transformation cultivators? The culprit behind the failure of the Ten Mile Slope Gathering is none other than Gu Jinlai!?"
