Crossing the stars, I live-streamed my cultivation in kindergarten

Chapter 451 Interstellar Supreme Court 1
A major event recently occurred on the Imperial Star.

The Guan family, which was merely a middle-class family, actually began to openly align itself with the Wang and Feng families, who were also middle-class nobles, and the White family, a high-class noble family. They even issued a notice about breaking away from the protection of the Burke family and truthfully published all the actions of the Burke family in fueling the fire and instigating trouble since the Guan family's incident.

However, neither of these accounts mentions that the young master of Burke asked Guan Wenyue to be his personal purifier.

The Guan family's big move has sparked much speculation on the internet.

Netizen 1: Challenging four or five families at the same time? The Guan family is far too impulsive. Even though those families have declined, there's an old saying on Earth: "A starving camel is bigger than a four-legged beast." Even if they were to challenge someone, they should do it one at a time.

Netizen 2: I heard the Guan family has found a better backer. A backer with even greater influence than the Burke family? But is the Guan family so certain that their new backer will support them in confronting so many established noble families?

Netizen 3: But it's no wonder the Guan family wanted to find a new backer. They "paid tribute" so much every year, but when the Guan family encountered trouble, not only did they not help them, they even kicked them when they were down.

Netizen 4: Ahhh! The Guan family actually won the challenge they initiated? They won them all! No wonder the Guan family dares to be so arrogant, but what's going on? This isn't the Guan family's usual strength.

Netizen 5: My God, where did the Guan family find their reinforcements? They won all seventy-eight martial arts challenges! And they won so easily! My God, even the Supreme Elder of the White family, with an eleventh-level combat power, lost!

Netizen 6: The Guan family is truly on the rise. Just from these inter-family bets and challenges, the Guan family must have already made a fortune. Previously, the other families thought the Guan family couldn't win, so they staked out a lot of treasures and resources. As far as I know, the White family even bet an entire overseas shipping route.

Netizen 6: Those families wanted the Guan family's shipping routes and production lines, little did they know that the Guan family wanted them too. Moreover, the external support the Guan family hired was far more powerful than what they had. It seems the Guan family has a good chance of rising to the ranks of high nobility.

Netizen 7: What kind of new backer is this? They haven't even shown their face yet, but they've already helped the Guan family gain so many benefits?! Some smaller families looking for a backer are already desperately trying to find out.

……

As netizens have pointed out, with the sister's substantial contributions, the Guan family's assets multiplied several times in just a few days.

Guan Wenchen, whose injuries had mostly healed, couldn't help but exclaim, "Indeed, the old saying is right: fortune favors the bold."

Moreover, after resolving those dirty affairs and finding a more powerful patron, it seems that there is no longer any need to worry about other families making underhanded moves behind the scenes. All they need to do is to serve the main family wholeheartedly, just like their sister and the Liu family, and strive to prove the value of the Guan family and themselves to the main family in order to obtain more resources.

The Guan family still shudders at the thought of the "backer" they met through their sister's introduction.

Especially the male orcs following behind their master...

Is the owner really not playing some kind of stamp collecting game? Like collecting all the stamps from the interstellar pyramid...?

No, I can't think about it anymore. I should think about how to make the main family pay more attention to the Guan family.

They were already later than the Liu and He families in pledging allegiance.

Judging from the time it took for the Liu family and the other families to pledge allegiance, it was only a little later, but the development of the Liu family was far beyond what the other families could compare to.

If the Guan family wants to gain the approval of the Lord's family, they must work even harder.

We still need to achieve some tangible results...

Aside from Guan Wenyue, the rest of the Guan family members were secretly making plans.

------

The changes in the Guan family sparked a lot of discussion on the imperial star, but soon few netizens paid attention to them.

Because the Supreme Interstellar Court has convened!

The upcoming Interstellar Supreme Tribunal is the very institution that previously received accusations against Lady Jiang Yuxi from some staff members of the Imperial Star Supreme Tribunal, as well as Lady Jiang Yuxi's counter-accusations against her and the forces behind it all.

In short, it's a matter of you suing me and me suing you.

The highest interstellar court, broadcast to the entire galaxy.

On the jury seat, the three empty seats were as magnificent as thrones.

Below the jury are the staff of this trial court, all of whom are top-ranking nobles in the interstellar space, as well as officials from the Empire, the Federation, and the Sea Clan.

Every orc in the seats was a powerful figure who could change the fate of an area with a stomp of his foot.

On either side of the work area are two groups of people who are each other's "defendants" and "plaintiffs".

Almost all of those in the audience were orcs involved in this trial.

If the fans in the live stream pay attention to the audience seats, they will find that many orcs are hiding under the back of their seats, and their hands seem to be tied up.

There are ten minutes left before the court hearing begins.

Jiang Yuxi sat down in her seat under the guidance of the staff.

As her only protector now, Frederick naturally sat down beside her.

Opposite Jiang Yuxi sat some "acquaintances" she had only met once on Hailan Star—a group of staff members from the Imperial Supreme Court.

There are five minutes left before the court hearing begins.

The Emperor of the Empire, Shi Yuejin, and the Federal President, Leviathan, have taken their positions.

Besides waiting for the court hearing, everyone is also waiting for the mermaid king and the sea beastmen.

The Interstellar Supreme Court's live stream has reached an astonishing 10 billion+ followers.

[Won't the sea creatures not come back?]

A few days ago, something seemed to have happened to the sea creatures. The entire sea creature population was enveloped in lightning.

I heard about it too. I heard it was struck by lightning for three whole days before it finally stopped!

[The version I heard is that lightning struck for three days and three nights, and then just as it was about to dissipate, it suddenly started to gather again, supposedly striking half the sea.]

[Anyway, from that day on, the sea area was sealed off, strictly prohibiting all beastmen from entering the sea territory, and all sea creatures outside were recalled.]

No wonder I haven't seen a single sea creature beastman these past few days. They've all gone home?

The last time the sea creatures caused such a commotion was when Princess Cordelia was kidnapped, wasn't it?

[If something really happens to the sea creatures, the seas will probably be sealed off for another hundred years. No way! I'll miss the beauty of the seas. Besides, the sea beasts there are so much purer than other strange creatures! They're delicious even eaten raw.]

[Pah! That little female's crimes are countless; the Mermaid King must be unwilling to appear because of that. Everyone knows that the kings of the sea are always of noble character!]

There are three minutes left.

[Wasn't this already debunked online? How can there still be idiots who think this way?]

[Have you grasped the situation? The decision to proceed with the trial at the Interstellar Supreme Court was requested by Lady Jiang Yuxi.]

[I still have the original announcement from the Interstellar Tribunal. It's the one submitted by Principal Aye, titled "Regarding the False Frame Against Lady Jiang Yuxi, the Holder of the Beast Ancestor Era Medal." To put it more bluntly, in case some fools don't understand, Lady Jiang Yuxi's side is the one taking the initiative. At this point, don't you understand who has the better chance of winning?]

[That's true. It was those staff members of the Imperial Court who, with their so-called evidence that wouldn't even fool a child, wanted to take Lady Jiang Yuxi away. That's why Headmaster Aye made the suggestion.]

The Imperial Court represents the old aristocratic power. If it weren't for Principal Aya's intervention, we might not be seeing Principal Xixi anymore.

[...It's terrifying to even think about.]

Was there a problem with the seating arrangement today...?

[One minute left, why hasn't the Mermaid King arrived yet? Could something really have happened?] [These are turbulent times. The empire, especially the noble families of the Imperial Star, has been undergoing frequent reshuffling lately. First the Aksu family, the Rune family, the Zhou family… then the White family, the Feng family, the Wang family…]

[Not only that, the recent operation to wipe out the rebel alliance also caused quite a stir, it was terrifying...]

I have a rumor that quite a few nobles have been implicated, including some heads and matriarchs of top and high-ranking noble families.

Ten seconds left...

The orcs sitting opposite Jiang Yuxi looked expectant, and some even looked at her with provocative eyes again.

【nineteen……】

Frederick held Jiang Yuxi's hand: "Don't worry, Your Majesty will definitely arrive on time."

Jiang Yuxi wasn't worried; she just wanted to laugh.

"Frederick, Headmaster Aye, aren't you calling me 'Royal Brother' a little too casually? Aren't you afraid that my Royal Brother will beat you up in front of all the orcs, in front of the entire intergalactic orc live stream?"

Frederick: "In the end, we're all family anyway, so we'll have to call each other sooner or later. I'll call each other a few more times now so my brother will get used to it soon."

And if my brother hits me, Headmistress Xixi, you'll definitely protect me. After all, I'm your most...most...favorite male, Xixi!"

He didn't care about the occasion; he would act cute whenever he wanted.

Hilter, sitting in the audience, paced back and forth between Jiang Yuxi and the doorway. Faster, he needed to be faster; he wanted to be by her side…

Beside Hilcher stood a powerful-looking male, his face covered by a metal mask. Just his mere presence created a suffocating sense of oppression among the surrounding orcs.

[5.4...]

"The Mermaid King of the Sea Clan has arrived—"

"The princes of the sea tribes have arrived—"

In the final two seconds, the sea creatures led by the Mermaid King Perez arrived belatedly.

At the same time, an orc from the Elwynn family finally delivered what Hilcher had been waiting for: "Chieftain, I have not failed you!"

The orc next to Hilcher also received a book-like object made from red energy stones, delivered by his subordinates.

The mermaid king, seated on his high throne, winked at Jiang Yuxi.

"Don't be afraid, your brother is here."

My gaze fell on Frederick beside me, and I couldn't help but quickly look away.

Thank goodness, I almost saw the other person's complete lip movements.

It's obvious without even guessing that Frederick shamelessly called him "Royal Brother".

She's even older than him, how dare she call him "Royal Brother"?!
It's ten o'clock sharp.

The staff member tapped something on the table that looked like a gavel, "thump—".

"Therefore, all relevant personnel are in place. I hereby declare the twenty-first session of the Interstellar Supreme Court officially open!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hilcher and the orc beside him pressed the button in front of them at the same time.

Hilcher and the masked orc said in unison, "Gentlemen, I request a change of seats. This is my reason for requesting it."

Hilcher handed the newly printed "Guardian Contract" to the court staff for inspection.

The staff were taken aback and checked repeatedly, verifying the information on the relevant internal network.

Finally, he accepted reality and announced loudly, "Elwin family's Hilcher officially became Jiang Yuxi's guardian on [date in interstellar space]! Lord Hilcher, please take a seat next to Lady Jiang Yuxi."

He held up the "Guardian Contract" in his hand, making it clearly visible to the orcs present and those watching the live stream.

[I was wondering why there weren't any members of the Elwin family or Patriarch Hilcher in the audience; turns out they were waiting for us here!]

[Headmistress Xixi?! When did you manage to win over Lord Hilcher without our knowledge?!]

[Lord Hilcher? A Guardian? What clan leader needs to be a Guardian for a female beastman? Besides, doesn't Headmistress Xixi already have Headmistress Aye? Don't those top clans all practice internal marriage, one-time arrangements, and true monogamy?]

The masked orc then handed the Energy Stone Book to the staff.

When the staff opened it, their expressions became even more exaggerated than before.

He even suspected he was hallucinating.

He rubbed his eyes repeatedly, but the more he looked at them, the more his hands trembled.

The staff member stared at the masked orc in front of him for a while, until the orc grew impatient.

In the end, he still dared not make the announcement, and could only turn his gaze to the imperial emperor sitting high in the center of the trial seat.

There is no inherent hierarchy among the Imperial Emperor, the Federal President, and the Sea Clan King.

However, Jiang Yuxi is an imperial citizen, and the Supreme Court is held on the Imperial Star, so this time the Imperial Emperor is in the center.

He respectfully handed the energy stone book to the emperor.

Shi Yuejin was also stunned: "How is that possible? This thing has been gone for a long time..."

He suddenly looked up at the masked orc.

The other person returned his greeting with a perfectly proper royal salute.

That brat...

Shi Yuejin smiled.

"This is indeed the marriage certificate between Lord Jiang Yuxi and him, with an official seal as proof; it cannot be faked."

A marriage certificate?!
Or is it your own sister's?
Perez quickly glanced at the "red bomb" in Shi Yuejin's hand.

My younger sister has only had one proper marriage certificate since she was born.

But wasn't that thing personally kept by the previous emperor, Shi Yiting?

The plaintiff later disappeared because Shi Yiting "died".

Shi Yuejin was lost in thought for a while before speaking: "Since he is Jiang Yuxi's fiancé, he should naturally sit in the seat he is entitled to."

The staff member announced tremblingly, "Jiang Yuxi's fiancé, please return to your seats." As he spoke, he pointed to the seat next to Jiang Yuxi.

Perez's expression turned cold, and he gave Shi Yuejin a subtle glare: He's got a deep mind!

Shi Yuejin looked back at him innocently: "I'm innocent! I don't know where this thing came from..."
