After Soul Calming Village was destroyed.
Gu Qingshan and the others were hurrying toward the Thorn Kingdom.
At the same time.
In the Primordial World.
Su Xue'er put away the nine Star Charts and flew toward the depths of the sky.
The massive Starfleet cruised through the skies, while dozens of Mobile Armors guarded her on either side to ensure her safety.
The personal Light Brain in her arms kept relaying the Goddess of Justice's voice:
"Your Excellency Su Xue'er."
"The Abyssal influx has ended, and spatial disruptions are subsiding."
"Calculations show that the world's safety index has recovered and will soon return to normal."
"That is the real-time status report. I have finished briefing you."
Su Xue'er listened in silence, then couldn't help asking, "Why are you telling me all this?"
The Goddess of Justice replied, "Because you are the designated heir of the Nine Prefectures."
"No—I remember the Nine Prefectures didn't have such high-level access." Su Xue'er said.
The Goddess of Justice fell silent. After a long while, she said, "You must come to the Temple Star Fortress. Only then can I give you an answer."
Su Xue'er considered it for a moment, then said, "Wait there. I'll come see you on the Temple Star Fortress right away."
She sped up, cutting through the dark night sky and quickly disappearing into the distance.
Temple Star Fortress.
A bruised and swollen man came to greet Su Xue'er.
"You're... that scientist named Liao Xing?" Su Xue'er asked after studying him for a while.
"Ah, yes, that's me, beautiful girl. I didn't expect you to remember me." Liao Xing squinted as he looked her over.
Why does this girl just keep getting more beautiful?
The unripe fruit was gradually ripening, reaching the most alluring stage—especially to an old man his age.
