Do you think this world is serious?

Anila was enjoying the peace and quiet, comfortably leaning against her ample bosom, occasionally letting out a soft moan of pleasure under her skillful touch.

Zofia ultimately decided against putting on that armor, mainly because with Delta and Anila around, it seemed unlikely she would have a chance to fight against a strong enemy, so there was no need to prepare for battle.

"Excuse my boldness, Lord Chen Xiuming, are you all 'people from outer space'?"

"That's it."

Chen Xiuming did not deny it.

Coming from other worlds, they can indeed be considered "visitors from outer space" in a sense.

In fact, through what happened when Delta, Maria, and Angelia entered this world bubble, Prime Minister Rita had already guessed this point. She asked Chen Xiuming mainly to confirm her suspicions.

After all, Chen Xiuming and the others had disguised their identities quite perfectly; without a thorough investigation, it would have been impossible to discover their deception.

After verifying the matter, Prime Minister Rita stopped talking about it and instead chatted casually with friends about everyday matters.

Chapter 243 [The Sage King] Observing the Stars.

Huang Forbidden City.

Compared to most of the modernized cities in the Huang Kingdom, the Huang Forbidden City, an important part of the Huang Kingdom, still retains its pure ancient style, with magnificent buildings and jade palaces.

However, once inside the Forbidden City, one will find that it is actually filled with modern facilities and is not much different from a normal modern house.

Wow! This place is huge!

Angelia exclaimed in amazement, "But it's just too deserted."

"The Forbidden City is usually only inhabited by me and the Holy King, so it is rather deserted."

Prime Minister Rita explained with a smile, then added, "If you all have a pleasant conversation with the Holy King, perhaps you can stay in the Forbidden City for a long time."

Although Prime Minister Rita wasn't entirely sure whether Chen Xiuming and the others would stay in this world for a long time, it was always wise to consider it as a long-term commitment.

Upon hearing this, Angela did not respond, but instead shifted the topic to Chen Xiuming.

On these important matters, she and Maria never interfered with Chen Xiuming and Cecilia's decisions.

Whether Chen Xiuming and Cecilia agree or not, she will not have any objections.

Chen Xiuming took over the conversation and nodded in response, "It is indeed quite good."

Prior to this, Chen Xiuming had never set foot in a real "palace," at most he had only seen related videos.

Now that they have the opportunity to live in a "palace," they naturally won't refuse.

Prime Minister Rita carried Anila as they walked gracefully towards the central palace of the Forbidden City.

Although the Huang Kingdom no longer needs to hold court as it used to, it has retained the palace used for holding court. However, with the changing times, the palace has undergone considerable changes. Not only have modern appliances been added, but it has also been slightly renovated to suit the needs of a reception hall.

“Your Majesty, I have brought Lord Chen Xiuming and his companions here.”

Prime Minister Rita bowed slightly.

Chen Xiuming's gaze swept past Prime Minister Rita and looked at the thin gauze curtain in front of him, where he could vaguely see the graceful figure of a young girl sitting upright.

The next second, the sheer curtain was slowly pulled back, revealing the true face of the young girl.

At the same time, a young, innocent voice reached everyone's ears.

“Rita, I’ve said it many times, here you don’t need to address me by my name.”

"Yes, Lady Theresa."

Prime Minister Rita readily agreed, but whether she kept it in mind is another matter.

Upon seeing the true face and name of the Sage King, Deilta, Maria, and Angelia were all taken aback by the sight of him.

Anila, now "worldly-wise," glanced at the Sage King a few more times before continuing to lean lazily against Prime Minister Rita.

Before the moon could even embrace them, and before Delta, Maria, and Angelia could react, the Sage King took the initiative to introduce himself.

“Our name is ‘Theresa,’ but people often call us ‘Stargazer,’ and we are the monarch of the Kingdom of Huang, ‘Sage King.’”

When Guan Xing said this, he slightly tightened his face and pretended to be serious, obviously wanting to highlight the majesty and solemnity of being a "monarch".

Unfortunately, its foreign trade was too immature, which resulted in the move lacking any sense of authority or solemnity.

Guan Xing clearly knew this, and after giving a proper self-introduction, he stopped trying to remain serious and gently waved the feather fan in his hand.

"You have probably already guessed why I invited you all."

As they spoke, Guan Xing gestured for Chen Xiuming and the others to sit down and discuss the matter in detail.

Because a detailed investigation had been conducted beforehand, and the approximate number of Chen Xiuming and his group was known, there would be no awkward situation where someone would not have a seat.

Chen Xiuming wasn't good at this kind of thing, but Aynmed was quite good at it, so Chen Xiuming asked Aynmed to negotiate on his behalf.

In the eyes of many, wars fought by armies lacking high-end combat capabilities are merely “small-scale skirmishes.” Perhaps only Levi and Vita are unable to “form an army single-handedly,” while the rest of the people can “enter and exit seven times” before the Honkai energy is exhausted.

Even the three Shaniat sisters, who had little combat experience, were invincible in the war.

Aynmed was well aware of Chen Xiuming's needs, so when communicating with Guanxing, she would subtly inquire about Guanxing's bottom line.

As intelligent as Guan Xing, he was naturally able to realize the goal of Chen Xiuming and the others.

From the tip of the iceberg revealed by Chen Xiuming and others, it can be inferred that there is nothing in the world that is truly needed.

The only thing needed is perhaps a specific "person," such as the stargazer himself.

As the negotiations drew to a close and the topic of "compensation" came up, Guan Xing couldn't avoid it and fell into deep thought.

On the contrary, Ainmed was willing to compromise on everything except for the "compensation"—

Whether it's the vast Kingdom of Huang or the entire World Bubble, they can all be handed over to others, as long as the Stargazer himself and his accompanying Prime Minister Rita.

The various words that the stargazer used might have the power to persuade others to back down, but they had no effect on Aynmed.

When Einmed was gathering intelligence and assassinating specific targets for Schicksal, he had heard various opinions, so it was impossible for him to be swayed by the Stargazer.

Guan Xing remained silent for a long time, gazing at the smiling Aynmed for a moment before turning to Chen Xiuming: "We want to know—if we grant your request, can you truly help the Huang Kingdom unify the world?"

Chen Xiuming sat up straight and gave an affirmative reply: "Of course!"

Although Guan Xing looks young, Chen Xiuming will not underestimate her because of that.

Guan Xing did not answer and fell silent again.

Prime Minister Rita remained silent, simply serving tea and water to everyone and stroking the gentle and obedient Anila.

After a long while, Guan Xing suddenly let out a long sigh of relief.

“In that case…we accept your request—after helping the Huang Kingdom unify the world, Rita and I will follow you.”

The main reason why the Star Gazing Sect values ​​the vast Huang Kingdom is that it is the foundation laid by their ancestors, and they do not want it to fall apart.

Since her ascension to the throne, she has maintained the hegemonic status of the Huang Kingdom for hundreds of years. Although she has now lost her hegemonic status, causing the world to be divided into three, she will have no regrets as long as she can help the Huang Kingdom regain its dominance before she leaves.

As for Rita, she is nominally the prime minister of Huang Kingdom, but in reality, she is the prime minister of Guanxing, so she will naturally follow in Guanxing's footsteps.

The moment the agreement was reached, the solemn atmosphere that had permeated the crowd vanished instantly, replaced by a relaxed demeanor.

Guan Xing was unsure whether Chen Xiuming and his group knew about the other two countries, so she prepared to give a detailed introduction to the situation in Hekzal and Jormungandr. However, she had not yet learned about Chen Xiuming and his group before doing so.

After Chen Xiuming introduced everything to her, the worry that had been lingering between her brows finally disappeared, and she felt no pressure at all.

Even though she is inferior to Claire and Flora in terms of strategy, with the help of Chen Xiuming and others, she is fully confident that she can defeat Hek'zar and Jormungandr, allowing the Kingdom of Huang to once again unify the world and establish itself as the hegemon.

Especially after learning about Delta's approximate strength, Guan Xing couldn't help but show some surprise, feeling that his worldview had been significantly impacted.

Although Honkai energy exists in this world bubble, there has never been an existence like Delta throughout history, or even an existence like Zofia or Ainmed.

In other words, this world bubble has always been at a "low-level" level.

The arrival of Chen Xiuming and his group was nothing short of a "dimensional reduction attack".

Chapter 244 "The Lake Spirit"

After recovering from the shock of Delta's formidable strength, Stargazer belatedly noticed Moonlit Embrace, who shared the same name as him but had a completely different appearance.

Not only her, but even Prime Minister Rita looked at the moonlit embrace with a strange glint in her eyes.

Before Stargazer and Prime Minister Rita could ask, Moonlit Embrace took the initiative to explain.

“I am another you—to be precise, another you from another world.”

"Me from another world?"

Looking directly into the crimson eyes of the moonlit embrace, a hint of doubt flickered in his own eyes.

Although she felt that the story of the moonlit embrace was true, the difference in eye color made her doubtful.

Prime Minister Rita did the same, but she did not ask any questions. She sat quietly to the side, waiting for the moonlit embrace to explain in detail.

He paused for a few seconds under the moonlight, seemingly organizing his thoughts.

Then, I listened to her tell her story in detail.

Before explaining the differences between herself and stargazing, she didn't forget to elaborate on the "world bubble."

"...In the bubble world I live in, I am not a pure human, but a 'half-finished fusion warrior' - I easily lose control once I come into contact with humans and need to drink human blood to regain my senses."

At this point, Yuexia Chuyong subconsciously looked at Chen Xiuming and continued, "In the end, it was Xiuming who helped me repair the defects in my physique, saving me from facing a painful and desperate fate—the scarlet color of my eyes is probably due to becoming a 'fusion warrior'."

"I see, I understand now."

Guan Xing nodded slightly in realization, unable to resist glancing at Yuexia Chuyong a few more times. His gaze lingered on Yuexia Chuyong's chest, and then he subconsciously looked down at her unremarkable chest, without feeling discouraged or disappointed.

The moonlit embrace represents "her from another world," and also "her future self," signifying her potential to become a giant.

—This is on the premise that she can still develop normally.

Because of a "miraculous encounter" in their childhood, both the stargazer and Prime Minister Rita possessed the special blessings of "unlimited lifespan" and "never aging," so their bodies would no longer develop and would be forever frozen at the moment they received the blessing.

Although they will not die of old age, their physical condition will not change much, and they will still get sick or injured, or even die from illness or physical death.

To this day, the Stargazer and Prime Minister Rita have lived for hundreds of years, maintaining the stability and prosperity of the Kingdom of Huang.

Even though it is currently in a state of decline, the Huang Kingdom is still thriving internally.
