Are the Moon's Indigenous Inhabitants Protected by Law?

The Divine Land spokesperson's words almost made the Eagle Country laugh in anger.

Since when did countries start existing on the moon? That's just a joke.

Besides, they can fly freely on Earth Star; which country would dare to say a word?

The reporters who had been pre-arranged to speak to Divine Land were somewhat bewildered by their comments. "Why are we here demanding an explanation, and you're here telling us science fiction stories?"

However, such opportunities are rare and precious, making them a perfect chance to launch a counterattack.

"As we all know, according to the Treaty, the moon is the common property of all mankind, not the private territory of any one person. Your claim of violating airspace is completely unreasonable. Can we conclude that Divine Land has violated the treaty and illegally occupied the moon?"

"What this journalist friend said is indeed correct; the moon is the common property of all humankind. However, this regulation has a prerequisite: that the moon has no indigenous inhabitants."

Although the spokesperson's statement was brief, it contained a great deal of information.

What does it mean if there are indigenous people living there? There's a hidden meaning in that statement.

"What does 'native inhabitants' mean? Does it mean there's still native life on the moon?"

The reporter followed up with another question.

Now that things have come to this point, there's nothing left to hide in front of numerous media outlets and live streaming channels.

"Yes, during our last lunar landing, we unexpectedly made contact with the lunar inhabitants. As everyone knows, Divine Land has always valued treating people with courtesy. Whether they are from Earth Star People or extraterrestrials, as long as they are civilized, we treat them with respect. The lunar inhabitants are quite advanced in their civilization, so we quickly established friendly diplomatic relations and began in-depth cooperation in many related fields."

We're not pretending anymore, we're laying it all out: we discovered aliens on the moon, so what?

Not only did we discover extraterrestrial life, but we also began cooperating with them. Furthermore, we recognized their territorial sovereignty, making them a legitimate lunar nation.

This revelation left everyone present completely bewildered. Who would publicly announce the discovery of aliens? They'd probably just keep it to themselves and gloat at home.

Only a country like Divine Land, which values gentlemanly conduct and is upright and honest, would do something so foolish.

However, this is only one side of the story from Divine Land. Who knows if they fabricated the story to cover up their actions on the moon?

Furthermore, are extraterrestrials protected by Earth Star's laws? Nobody can say for sure, since the legislation didn't take that into consideration at all.

Besides, are the Divine Land People really that kind? If there were aliens, the first reaction of the Eagle Country would be to shoot them down and then conduct research on the spot, while also taking over some territory. After all, they've done this kind of thing many times before.

The Native Americans beneath the Americas soil have something to say.

Judging others by one's own standards, it's hard to imagine what true civilization is in a country whose mind is filled with burning, killing, and looting.

"Let's set aside the question of whether aliens have human rights. Are alien nations protected by our laws? Moreover, these claims about aliens are all one-sided, from Divine Land's perspective, making it difficult for us to believe their veracity."

Soon, reporters raised several pointed questions. Indeed, there are so many small countries on Earth Star, and many that are not recognized. Even Divine Land does not recognize the sovereignty of several small countries, let alone aliens.

That's a rather frivolous statement.

"Regarding the issues that everyone is concerned about, we have also had relevant discussions. After friendly exchanges with the Xi People on the lunar surface—a name they chose themselves after learning Chinese—the chieftain and key figures of the Xi People have decided to visit Earth Star in the coming days and also to extend their greetings to all the countries on Earth Star."

Divine Land had already made preparations for this situation, allowing Li Xingkong and his group to return to Earth Star and demonstrate their abilities, thus naturally eliminating all these problems.

After all, the idea of aliens descending is more believable than the reincarnation of a deity.

Now, the crowd, who were initially just watching for fun, were genuinely laughing.

Who could have imagined this? We were just curious about whether aliens existed, and we ended up learning that Eagle Country satellite had been shot down.

Just when it seemed like an international conflict was about to erupt, aliens suddenly appeared. But these aliens weren't like the ones in the movies who just descended in a spaceship and started fighting everywhere. They seemed quite civilized.

This is interesting. The recent news of aliens visiting Earth Star has instantly become the top story on the world stage.

As for the claim that Divine Land has had dealings with extraterrestrials, although many people have expressed dissatisfaction and condemnation, it's mostly just wishful thinking. Given the global nature of this event, such opinions are unlikely to emerge.

Most importantly, anyone would have kept this operation a secret, no doubt about it.

If it weren't for this satellite incident involving the Eagle Country, Divine Land would probably still be holding back, only revealing a few words after mastering its skills.

Those who are just watching the drama unfold are having a great time, but another group of people aren't so happy.

Originally, the idea of aliens was just something made up out of thin air, and naturally, it was just talk, and no one took it seriously. But now that aliens have actually come, and are even coming to Divine Land, some people are genuinely afraid.

It's nothing more than that they genuinely love dragons but are terrified of them being aliens who will eat their children.

Some people run away overnight, abandoning everything, and head straight abroad to make money.

It can only be said that this globally sensational event has brought about an unexpected change to the development of the world. The original world order will likely undergo a new round of reshuffling after this event.

" Brother Li, are we just going back to Earth Star this time, just the two of us?"

At the lunar base, Tang Cheng looked reluctant. After all, he had now tasted the benefits of cultivation and wished he could cultivate a little more Heavenly Capital. Although Earth Star was also very nice and he missed home, cultivation was just too tempting.

"Yeah, what else?"

Li Xingkong didn't mind the arrangement of returning to Earth Star to show off. After all, he hadn't returned even once since he came to the moon to cultivate his Foundation Establishment. It was about time. Besides, he had already refined several Earth Vein. This trip back would be a good opportunity to arrange Earth Vein for Divine Land as well, so that they could be considered to have entered a new era of Spiritual Qi revival.

Your family and friends can also begin formal spiritual practice. Although the progress may not be very fast, once they embark on the path of spiritual practice, their lives will begin to evolve and improve, and their lifespan will be greatly extended.

"How about we bring a few more people back to make it more impressive?"

Tang Cheng felt a little guilty. Returning to Earth Star was no problem, but pretending to be an alien was really hard to handle.

"I'm telling you, besides the two of us, who else can speak that alien language you created?"

Li Xingkong was speechless. He hadn't noticed at the time that Tang Cheng's language skills were quite good, but the problem was that they were also very difficult. Apart from Li Xingkong, who learned almost everything after just a few glances, it was really difficult for others to master a language.

"Sigh, I regret it. I should have just switched to Chinese."

Tang Cheng also felt some regret; he had truly reaped what he sowed.
