I never expected this guy to stay in their federation for so long.

The key thing is that he actually waited until Fang Yuan left the planet.

Now, they've even rescued the person and are letting him take them directly back to the empire.

As a result, it's uncertain whether Fang Yuan can return, or when he will return. Judging from that guy's expression in the restaurant, he probably won't let him go easily.

"That's right, it's all General Jiang's fault. Why did he bring a prince from another country here?"

Qin Xiuyi sat in Fangyuan's restaurant, feeling heartbroken.

With Fang Yuan gone, even if the food here tastes good, it will no longer have the effect of soothing the mind.

The situation on the federal side is likely to be chaotic.

Jiang Nancheng, who was being complained about by the two, also cursed: "That Third Prince is really cunning. I don't know how he managed to trick people into going out."

He also said that when his son returns from the edge of the planet, he will have him get closer to Fang Yuan.

Now look what's happened! The person has been kidnapped by the prince of the empire, and the worst part is that he was the one who brought the person there.

He knew without even thinking that many people would blame him.

"The royal family of this empire is too cunning; they are simply scoundrels."

When the news spread that Fang Yuan had left the Federation for the Empire, many people couldn't sit still.

The one who couldn't sit still the most was Zhu Le, the one from the White Pagoda who helped Fang Yuan test his level for the second time.

That third prince must have discovered Fang Yuan's hidden guide level, which is why he tried every means to abduct him.

He was truly afraid that Fang Yuan would never return after going there, and if that happened, he would become a sinner of the Federation.

After thinking for a moment, he contacted Qin Xiuran: "Major General Qin, since Lord Fang Yuan came to the Central Star System, he has been staying with your Qin family. What are your plans regarding Lord Fang Yuan?"

"Intend?"

Qin Xiuran looked at Zhu Le: "I'm just one of her business partners, not anyone to her. What could I possibly be planning to do?"

He wanted to bring the person back, but he had no reason to do so.

"You may not know this, but Lady Fang Yuan is not an ordinary S-class guide. She is actually an SSS-class guide. She is the only one we have discovered in our Federation and even the entire star system so far."

Zhu Le still revealed the results of Fang Yuan's test.

He then emphasized, "I suspect that the Third Prince must have also realized Lord Fang Yuan's rank, which is why he wanted to bring him to the Empire."

For an SSS-level guide like Fang Yuan, even if she was unregistered, the Empire granted her a title without question, as long as she was willing.

"Why didn't you say so sooner?" Qin Xiuran asked Zhu Le coldly, looking at the person opposite him on the Star Brain.

If he had known earlier that Fang Yuan was an SSS-level guide, even if Fang Yuan wanted to leave Star S03, he would have had his own people follow him.

"I only detected it using my own mental body, without using any instruments, and I doubt that Your Excellency Fang Yuan can control the level of your own mental body."

He said that only to minimize his mistakes, since even if the level was detected by his mental body, he could still upload it as long as he was sure of it.

"Alright, let's not talk about these things now. I'm going to apply for a mission to the Empire."

Qin Xiuran hung up the call immediately after speaking.

Right now, nothing is more important than bringing the person back.

An SSS-class guide is a rare find, appearing only once every thousand years in the entire interstellar space. We definitely can't let her go to the Empire.

Qin Xiuran's application was quickly approved by the federal government and the military.

After all, Fang Yuan's abilities are very special. Even if these people don't know her specific level, no one will give up on her.

Although the Federation and the Empire have always gotten along relatively well, they are ultimately not one entity.

Even their white pagodas lack a unified system, so naturally, everyone has their own guides.

After Qin Xiuran's application was approved, the authorities not only sent an official message to the Empire, but also arranged for a number of people to join his delegation.

Zhong Ye and Zong Cheng were also inside.

Since the people going were all of high rank, Qin Xiuran's status as a major general was not quite suitable for him to be the team leader.

After much deliberation, the higher-ups selected General Jiang Nancheng, who had once hosted the Third Prince, as the new team leader.

The delegation members were: Qin Xiuran, Zhong Ye, Zong Cheng, Zhu Le, and Jiang Yunfeng, the son of General Jiang.

Qin Xiuran was not in a good mood when he received the news that General Jiang would lead the team.

After all, he still harbored some resentment towards this general.

But since the other party is leading a group there now, he can only suppress his dissatisfaction for Fang Yuan's sake.
