"What truthful words? I'm speaking truthfully right now. Is there a problem? And this isn't exactly a secret. Galaxy Power has your Angel sequence, but the main body is still from our Shenhe Civilization. The question of Galaxy Power's ultimate future destination—this isn't a secret among your Angels, nor is it a secret among us Shenhe."
Angel Yan thought it over and figured that made sense. After all, he had many similarities with Galaxy Power, so even just guessing could get her close. The matter between her and Galaxy Power—the Shenhe Civilization couldn't possibly be unaware of it.
In the end, what she needed was Galaxy Power, not Ge Xiaolun. Her and Ge Xiaolun—it was only because Ge Xiaolun happened to inherit the Galaxy Power gene.
"I'm classmates with the current Galaxy Power. He seems to have fallen for Ducao's daughter, Du Qiangwei. That's quite a challenge for you."
"Du Qiangwei possesses the Space-Time Gene and will have Eternal Life. So if you're thinking of waiting a hundred years or a thousand years for him, that's not very realistic. The pressure on you is considerable."
To be honest, he still rather hoped Angel Yan and Ge Xiaolun would end up together. As for Qiangwei, he wasn't particularly fond of her. Plus, Du Qiangwei looked down on Ge Xiaolun anyway—might as well leave her to Morgana.
Angel Yan paused, then said, "The current Galaxy Power is still a child. It's normal for his heart to stir with feelings. Right now, he isn't Galaxy Power yet; he can't understand the responsibilities he'll carry in the future."
"So even if he likes someone else now, I'm still willing to give some time and wait patiently. After all, a god's feelings are different from a mortal's."
She'd seen Ge Xiaolun when she went to Earth. To be honest, if it weren't for the Galaxy Power sequence inside him, she wouldn't even bother with him.
Heavenly City, Rear Garden
"Hexi, I've already sent Yan to fetch your Male God. How about that—excited?"
"Oh, go away, you tomboy. How many years has it been, and you're still bringing up Male Gods? We're both Ten Thousand Year single dogs—you should think about yourself." Hexi replied with irritation.
In the garden, the two queens had shed their usual majesty and were more like close girlfriends to each other.
"I'm serious. Do you still remember back then, that Prince of Shenhe Civilization? The one who matched 100% with you? Though he was sealed in that accident back then, he's awakened on Earth now. Don't you want to meet him? After all, his gene is far more powerful than Galaxy Power's."
"So you mean that little brat. It's been many years—if you hadn't mentioned it, I'd almost forgotten. But you're right, his gene is indeed much stronger than Galaxy Power's."
"Then let's proceed with the original plan. Use me to exchange for his future—that's a good thing for me too. But have you considered, if one day the Shenhe Civilization suddenly recovers, how would we handle that?"
"In that case, relying on me alone, there's no way I could completely bind him to the Angel Civilization's war chariot."
Hexi set down her teacup. Back then, that match was something her good friend had tricked her into. Otherwise, she wouldn't have suddenly ended up with a Male God like this.
"If it really doesn't work, we'll think of another way. After all, with so many Goddesses in our Angel Civilization, can't we find a satisfactory one?" Keisha was unconcerned. She firmly believed that with Hexi's charm, she could easily handle this not-so-mature Male God.
"You're quite optimistic. But it really is a good thing for us. Since he's here, let's meet him."
"But since he's lived on Earth for so long, he must have some attachment to it. When the time comes, should I choose to go back to Earth with him, or stay here?"
"After all, you—shouldn't you reconsider this matter?"
"The current Angel Civilization can continue operating under your leadership for at least 5,000 years. In those 5,000 years, you can handle many things. By then, the new generation of Angels will have plenty of room to grow."
"Even if Enixide hasn't fully grown into the King of Angels by then, Angel Yan can still use her reputation to build up a new generation of her own team."
"Hexi, some things aren't about me not wanting to—it's that the situation has developed to a point where I can no longer decide. And this is just my premonition; it may not come true."
"If something unexpected really happens to me, then the main burden of the entire Angel Civilization will still fall on you." At this stage of events, as the King of Angels and the King of Gods, Holy Keisha had to make a decision—to let the Angel Civilization break and rebuild, to face death and seek life.
"Understood. Then I'll have to arrange the follow-up matters. Poor me—I have to handle a Male God and guard the Heavenly City. And back then, you never thought to cultivate Angel Yan's kingly mindset." Hexi was a bit worried. Yan was always a warrior's mindset—an executor, not a thinker. For a civilization, having such a king in the early stages wasn't a good thing.
"That's why I need you to help me guard Angel City. My edge is no longer sharp. The Order of Justice has been enforced for over ten thousand years. If we don't make a change, the Angel Civilization might follow in the footsteps of the Shenhe Civilization."
The fall of the Shenhe Civilization back then had always weighed on her mind. Its sudden destruction was very mysterious—no one knew exactly why it perished. Later, the Space Principal, who became the will of the universe, and Death God Karl, who fled to the River Styx, both publicly claimed that the Shenhe Civilization's fall was related to the Void.
"My Queen, Your Highness Hexi, the person has arrived." Angel Yan gave a slight bow. As the Left Wing Guard, she didn't need to perform the heavy formalities other Angels did toward the Queen—except in special circumstances.
"Greetings, Queen Keisha, Queen Hexi." Su Xingchen gave a slight bow. He was the Prince of the Shenhe Civilization, the future supreme ruler of the civilization, equal in status to Holy Keisha, but basic courtesy still had to be observed.
"Have a seat. I'm sure you know the main purpose of inviting you here. And we've met before. If you hadn't been sealed, you'd probably have a little Angel with Hexi as old as Yan by now." Keisha half-joked.
"My Queen, you really know how to joke. Little Angels and such—I'm afraid that will have to wait. In a sense, the so-called feelings between me and Your Highness Hexi haven't even started yet."
"The Angel sees my future, and I need the Angel's present. You could say our feelings are built on a cooperative foundation. In Earth terms, it's a Marriage Alliance."
