"Lin Zhong, how is Adrian doing?" Helian Jue asked seriously, his whole demeanor like a sharpened sword, exuding full power.

Lin Zhong followed Helian Jue's pace, staying just one step behind. "Mr. Adrian and General Shenyang have successfully intercepted the Allied forces and are awaiting Your Highness's instructions."

"Those who refuse to reveal the truth during persuasion or interrogation shall be killed without exception."

Lin Zhongying replied, "Yes!"

Helian Jue was seething with anger and was just looking for an excuse to attack the alliance when they delivered themselves to his doorstep.

Ever since the wedding date was set, Helian Jue had been worried that, given the unscrupulous nature of those in the alliance, they would definitely cause trouble.

To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, Helian Jue dispatched a reconnaissance team to the vicinity of the capital star to conduct constant surveillance.

Five days ago, there was confirmed information that the Alliance would launch a surprise attack on the capital planet that day.

Helian Jue went so far as to mobilize Bai Xing's undercover agents in order to find out the exact plan.

Shen Yangxin was secretly dispatched by Helian Jue to lie in ambush near the capital star. If any fleet with unclear objectives approached, they were to be intercepted and killed.

At the same time, Lens received a letter from Arad, informing him that the raid plan was in charge of Heliantu and was also his idea.

Arad's letter detailed the specific route of the raid.

That route coincided exactly with Adrian's route from the insect planet to the capital planet via the jump portal.

Thus, Adrian, who had originally come to attend the wedding, was conscripted by Helian Jue and became a sharp weapon against the alliance.

Shen Yangxin and Adrian teamed up to wipe out the Alliance's raiding squad.

Helian Jue and Lin Zhong boarded a warship and quickly left the capital planet, heading to the front line.

"Your Highness, Shenyang has sent word that the leader of the Alliance's raiding squad has committed suicide."

"The others only know that this operation was proposed on short notice, and that it was entirely led by Tu Weiren, which overlaps with the contents of Arad's letter." Lin Zhong took the personal terminal, extracted the dense text, and reported the key points.

Helian Jue paused in his tapping of the table. "Tu. Weiren?"

Lin Zhong looked up at Helian Jue and replied, "It's Helian Tu."

"They have joined the Wellen family and their surname has been changed."

Helian Jue sneered, "Helian Tu has really made something of himself."

"Trying to get something from a tiger is all you're capable of."

The warship left the capital planet's range and flew towards the outer perimeter. This move by the Alliance was truly insidious, consistent with Helian Tu's usual style.

If the Alliance team succeeds in raiding the capital star today, it will not only ruin his wedding with Xiaoyu, but also arouse suspicion among the people, who will think that it is fate and that perhaps a mermaid spirit pet cannot be the crown princess of the empire.

If such a situation were to occur, Helian Jue would certainly not abandon Qiao You, and his own prestige would be greatly diminished, leading to public dissatisfaction with the imperial family.

This tactic is truly ruthless, undermining public trust in the empire from the perspective of the people.

Helian Jue and Lin Zhong arrived quickly and joined Shen Yangxin and Adrian.

In this area, warship wreckage still floats, countless repair robots are busy at work, and soldiers are cleaning up the battlefield in small spaceships.

The battleship carrying Helian Jue successfully docked with Shenyang Xin's main ship, and the two ships reunited after passing through the passage.

"You've worked hard." Helian Jue saluted Shen Yangxin.

Shen Yangxin stood with his feet together, saluted, and replied loudly, "It's no trouble at all, serving the Empire!"

Compared to Shenyang's high spirits, Adrian seemed somewhat dejected.

Having finally escaped that awful place, the insect planet, and headed to the capital planet for a wedding, she was intercepted by her love rival on the way, forcing her to defend the wedding of her rival and her secret admirer.

Today, he is the most miserable person in the entire galaxy! Without a doubt!

"Thanks." Helian Jue thanked Adrian sincerely. He owed him this favor and would repay it in the future.

Adrian raised his eyelids slightly and said bluntly, "The rest is up to you."

"I need to rest; this journey almost killed me."

The jump passage from the Insect Star to the Morning Star was not very stable during this period due to changes in the magnetic field. When the spaceship passed through it, it was extremely bumpy, almost making the spaceship vomit.

Adrian had planned to rest properly on the capital planet, but halfway there he was ordered by Helian Jue to fight. Now that everything had just ended, he simply couldn't hold on any longer.

After saying he was going to rest, Adrian strolled away leisurely.

Shenyang is straightforward and a skilled commander. If he weren't so young, he could easily hold the rank of general.

"Your Highness, those prisoners of war..." Shen Yangxin asked. They had all been interrogated, but nothing had been gained. They already knew all the information they had, so it was all of no value.

But what should be done with these prisoners of war?

Today is His Highness's joyous day, yet the Alliance dares to make a move at this critical juncture. They will have to bear His Highness's wrath.

Helian Jue gave Shenyang Xin a few instructions, and then Shenyang Xin went off to do her business in high spirits.

“Helian Tu…” Helian Jue looked at the empty darkness outside, the name Helian Tu rolling on his tongue.

Helian Jue remembered what happened today.

————

Capital Star, Heartless Palace.

Qiao You slept for three hours and woke up close to evening.

"elder brother?"

"elder brother!"

There was nothing in the bedroom, and the other side of the bed was cold, indicating that Helian Jue had been gone for a long time.

Qiao You was a little down; he woke up and didn't see his brother...

After sitting on the bed with her legs drawn up for a while, Qiao You got up in a bad mood and prepared to go outside to look for someone.

Upon opening the door to the bedroom, Qiao You saw Doraemon's rabbit figure.

"What are you doing here?" Qiao You asked in surprise. He hadn't seen Doraemon in a long time.

More than two months ago, Doraemon's internal program malfunctioned and it was sent to Lens's laboratory for repair.

Lens was quite busy and never had a free moment, so Dora never came back.

"Master! I'm back!"

"Master! I'm back!" The cute boy's voice repeated twice to express his excitement.

Qiao You patted the rabbit's head and asked, "Where's my brother?"

The rabbit's round head screen flickered twice and replied, "I don't know."

"I have no idea."

Qiao You's upturned lips fell back down.
