Chapter 56

Just as complaints against the mainframe on the StarNet had reached their highest level ever, the royal heirs of various races on Canaan were not idle either.

Since Chenxi didn't take them out yesterday, it was like giving them, the playmates, a day off. Now that they finally had some time and space, these people naturally started to make their own moves.

Although they were still largely under the control of the Zhi tribe and couldn't go wherever they wanted, they found that the Zhi tribe's control over them was quite lenient. As long as they didn't leave the Canaanite royal palace, they weren't restricted from moving around or being contacted by others, just like the Canaanite prince Jia Ye from last time.

Under these conditions, how could these royal heirs still tolerate it? Although they couldn't leave, it didn't stop them from making some small moves. In particular, Canaan was not an ocean planet like the Water Fish Star, nor was it as ferocious and xenophobic as the Water Fish Clan. Therefore, some neighboring races still had forces stationed on Canaan.

Immediately, some royal heirs who had influence within the Canaanite race tried every means to contact their race's spies on Canaan, hoping to send news back to their clans that they were still alive.

But to the surprise of these royal heirs, their race's spies arrived much faster than they had imagined, some even before they could send a signal, which was truly unbelievable.

Just as these royal heirs were staring incredulously at their clansmen who had risked their lives to infiltrate the Canaanite royal palace, on the other side, Ga'e, having resolved a series of troublesome matters, was wearily rubbing his temples.

Suddenly, something occurred to him, and he beckoned someone to ask, "After returning to the Canaanite tribe, I found that I haven't seen any trace of the Ear-Fox tribe in the tribe. What's going on?"

In fact, Ga'e had noticed this on the way, but as the host, he had to stay by Chenxi's side to introduce the customs and culture of the Canaanite tribe, and coordinate the cooperation of various departments and people of the Canaanite tribe. He was also very busy with that incident before, and his mind was on high alert for a moment. Only now could he find the time to ask.

The person Ga'ai summoned for questioning was one of his trusted confidants, responsible for intelligence in various aspects. Upon arrival, he reported with remarkable accuracy: "Your Highness, the entire Earfox tribe of the Canaanite race was taken away by the Intelligent Clan two Canaanite months ago. According to investigations, this situation is not unique to our tribe; the same is true for neighboring tribes. The Earfox tribe was completely taken away, and now no trace of them can be found among the tribes. As for where the taken Earfox tribe is now, according to reliable sources, traces of Earfox settlement have been discovered on several habitable planets that originally belonged to the Intelligent Clan, north of Red Cloud Star. However, those planets are the territory of the Intelligent Clan, and other races dare not set foot there, so more detailed information cannot be obtained."

Upon hearing this news, Gae immediately stood up in shock. His deep eyes flickered with uncertainty as a thousand thoughts flashed through his mind. He asked in a deep voice, "Is the situation true?"

"Your Highness, it is indeed true."

At this moment, Gae thought of many things, especially the abnormal attitude of the Water Fish Clan chief when he was with the Water Fish Clan. He had previously thought that although the Water Fish Clan was fierce, they knew that the gap between them and the Intelligent Clan was vast. Therefore, after the Intelligent Clan came to the Water Fish Star, they were so warm and accommodating to the Intelligent Clan in order to protect themselves. But now he thought that there was another reason behind it.

Thinking back to the days they spent with the Water Fish Clan, during which the clan was filled with singing and dancing, and not a single member of the Water Fish Clan had ever let slip any information, even in casual conversation, Ga'e couldn't help but let out a deep breath. The current king of the Water Fish Clan was truly worthy of his name; his control over the entire race and his ability to keep information tightly under wraps were truly terrifying.

Suddenly, Ga'e realized something, his expression changed, and he said urgently, "Quickly send more men to seal off the palace and prevent any unauthorized personnel from getting close!"

Unfortunately, by the time Gae realized what was happening, it was too late.

Inside the palace, spies from several races knelt before their respective princes, revealing that all the Ear-Fox slaves from their various races had been taken away by the Intelligent Race and were now residing on their habitable planets. They also carried orders from their respective kings, urging their princes to cultivate good relations with the Intelligent Race at all costs and to learn from the Ear-Fox prince.

The royal heirs who received the news were naturally stunned and remained speechless for a long time. The Ear-Fox Clan, the Habitable Planet...

The weak Ear Fox tribe had escaped the fate of slavery and even settled on several habitable planets with abundant water and mild climates? This seemed like a fantasy, but upon closer reflection, it was indeed an easy feat for the Intelligence Clan.

However, they never expected that the Ghibli would one day do them a favor.

They never expected that while they were trapped inside the Zhi Clan and knew nothing about the outside world, the Ear Fox Clan prince, whom they looked down upon, would become the biggest winner by relying on the Zhi Clan's favor!

...

...

While these royal heirs received the latest news, and many were excited and ready to make a big splash, eagerly anticipating once again fulfilling their duties as companions, Chenxi had absolutely no desire to go out.

Firstly, he was already getting tired of this kind of sightseeing tour after the initial novelty wore off, and he didn't find it very interesting. Secondly, he still vividly remembered the Canaanite woman and the way she had taken Jin Yi and the others to disguise themselves as other races. He wouldn't do that again. No matter what race Jin Yi disguised himself as, he was a super handsome guy, and would definitely be coveted by all sorts of women and even men. Only by maintaining the appearance of the Zhi race could he avoid being seen by others. In fact, even now, he didn't want to take Jin Yi, who appeared as a Zhi race, out in public. Having just gotten their marriage certificate and realizing that he truly loved Jin Yi, he was now bursting with possessiveness towards him.

Hmm, maybe we should go to less crowded places next time, or maybe we shouldn't go to places with certain races that we're not really interested in...

Chenxi lay in the bathtub with her eyes closed, relaxing and enjoying the massage of the water, lost in thought.

Just then, there was a noise at the bathroom door, followed by footsteps approaching slowly. Chen Xi smiled and turned her head to share her thoughts with Jin Yi. However, before she could finish saying "Jin...", her eyes widened involuntarily.

In the steamy bathroom, a perfect male body stood there, with broad shoulders, long legs, eight-pack abs, and long blond hair that cascaded down his back, with a few strands falling over his shoulders and then sliding down his jade-like skin to his chest...

Chenxi froze for two seconds, then screamed "Ahhhhh!" in a panic, not knowing what to do. She even slipped in the bathtub and almost fell into the water.

"Be careful." The next moment, that perfect body appeared beside Chen Xi, and two bare arms wrapped around Chen Xi, supporting him steadily.

However, when Chen Xi felt the flesh against flesh, and the body radiating an astonishing heat beside him, he felt terrible. His face flushed red, his eyes were tightly closed, and he said in a trembling voice, "You, why did you come in without any clothes on?!"

Upon hearing Chen Xi's question, Jin Yi innocently replied, "Because I am your companion robot."

Previously, when Jin Yi helped Chen Xi take a bath, he always came in fully dressed. After all, he wasn't a companion robot, and it was not allowed to help a human take a bath without clothes without human permission, as that would be sexual harassment. But now that he has become Chen Xi's companion robot, there is no such restriction.

"Well, you can't just come in naked!" Chenxi was a little exasperated, and at the same time, the image she had just unexpectedly seen kept flashing through her mind. It was huge, so huge.

Jin Yi chuckled softly as she looked at Chen Xi, who refused to open her eyes no matter what, and gently advised, "What's the big deal? Think about it, I've looked at you so many times, and you've only looked at me once today. If you think about it carefully, you're the one who's at a disadvantage."

Hearing Jin Yi's words, Chen Xi thought about it and realized that it made sense. Jin Yi had seen his body countless times, so seeing Jin Yi's body today didn't seem like a big deal. Immediately, most of his original nervousness and shyness disappeared. After a while, he tentatively opened his eyes and saw Jin Yi's body, which looked like a mythical sculpture.

However, Chen Xi's gaze shifted from Jin Yi's pectoral muscles to Jin Yi's seemingly sincere eyes, which couldn't hide his smile. For some reason, he felt like he was the one who had lost out.

Finally, despite Chenxi's extreme reluctance, Jin Yi didn't go out to put on clothes. Instead, he helped Chenxi take a bath. After being bathed by a naked man, Chenxi felt that her body and mind were no longer pure. When Jin Yi carried her out in a princess carry, she felt utterly hopeless.

However, after being put on the bed, Chen Xi quickly revived, pulled the blanket over herself, rolled to the side, and asked Jin Yi, "Go put on some clothes."

Jin Yi raised an eyebrow, picked up a bathrobe, put it on, and tied the belt.

Seeing this, Chenxi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Wearing a bathrobe, Jin Yi walked over to Chen Xi again, holding a towel in her hand, and helped him up, saying, "Here, dry your hair."

"Mmm," Chenxi replied obediently.

Then, the next moment, Jin Yi sat down next to him. Because of the change in posture, the hem of his bathrobe slipped down, revealing a large area of ​​his thighs. The area that was barely covered became even more alluring. Chen Xi, who had been looking down, stared for two seconds before deciding to look up. What he saw when he looked up was a large expanse of pectoral muscles visible through the wide neckline of the bathrobe, with his two tempting nipples clearly visible. Chen Xi... why does it feel like something is even more off now that he's dressed?

Just as Chen Xi decided to endure those two minutes and wait for Jin Yi to dry his hair before creating a safe distance, he heard footsteps outside the bedroom door.

Almost before she could even think, Chen Xi instantly grabbed another blanket from the bed and wrapped it around Jin Yi, then instinctively stood in front of Jin Yi to shield her.

The next moment, the bedroom door was pushed open, and Binlan walked in carrying a fruit plate. He stopped in his tracks when he saw the strange scene on the bed.

"Haha, it's Binlan. You can leave it there and I'll eat it myself." Chenxi looked at Binlan and chuckled dryly.

Jin Yi, who was much taller than Chen Xi and was being shielded by her, could not be completely hidden. Not only could his figure not be hidden, but he could also easily look Bin Lan in the eye through the top of Chen Xi's head. He held the blanket that Chen Xi had haphazardly covered him with in his hand, looked into Bin Lan's orange eyes, and slowly revealed a smile.

Looking at Chen Xi standing in front of Jin Yi, and at the blanket that Jin Yi had haphazardly draped over his body—clearly not something Jin Yi had made himself—Bin Lan understood everything. A bitter look appeared in his eyes, and he could only say, "Alright, please enjoy your meal."

He then closed the door and left the bedroom.
