When Li Qingyu led the great assassin to the outside of Blue Star.

The surrounding starry sky was extremely dim, as if a thin layer of mist shrouded the nearby star field. The only things that remained conspicuous were the sun and the three-colored mist beyond the blue planet.

Of course, black and gray aren't really about being noticeable or not.

What has always been truly conspicuous has been the white mist that seems to contain celestial soldiers and generals.

But at this moment, what caught Li Qingyu's attention was...

It wasn't white fog, but rather gray fog from the other side.

Because dozens of fiery red pillars were shooting out from the atmosphere of the blue planet, heading straight for the gray clouds.

Although Li Qingyu didn't know what kind of weapon it was, judging from its thickness, he felt it was almost as thick as an ordinary stellar orbital cannon, and it was definitely thicker than the one fired by Erha!

The fiery red giant pillar didn't seem to move very fast, not even as fast as Li Qingyu's Italian cannon, and its appearance was also quite ordinary, showing no signs of any power.

But Li Qingyu knew it couldn't be that simple.

After all, the US's probing attack yesterday was earth-shattering.

Today's attack from China, whether it's a test or not, is certainly not weak.

On the other side...

Gray Cloud didn't react to the attack from the fiery red pillar, and didn't even use the sword that froze time yesterday.

It seems like... they're planning to hold out for a while?

Just as Li Qingyu was facing the enemy with his back to them, accompanied by Da Ciguan.

Suddenly.

A soft yet ethereal voice rang out from behind Li Qingyu.

"The Demon Clan's great assassin... is it Li Qingyu?"

Li Qingyu turned his head to look.

Wearing pink clothes, Satang appeared outside the atmosphere at some point.

Of course, although Li Qingyu felt that she was turning her head to look, from Shatang's perspective, Li Qingyu was still just a slender figure wearing a skirt, but without legs, in black.

Li Qingyu hadn't expected that even with the assassin's stealth abilities, Sha Tang could still discover him.

It seems that Shatang's Tai Xuan Bai Shou Jing is quite something.

Sure enough, after only a few days, Shatang's Tai Xuan Bai Shou Jing had actually broken through the 500,000 mark. As for his Tai Shang Gan Ying Pian, due to lack of time to cultivate, it was still stuck at the 200,000 level, barely holding on with a huge amount of karma.

While Li Qingyu was hesitating.

Should we adopt this approach when we reunite with Satang?

In the distance, dozens of fiery red beams of light had already reached the gray clouds without any obstruction.

There was no sound, and no explosive special effects.

But in Li Qingyu's eyes, the gray cloud that was touched by the fiery red beam of light was like a piece of paper touched by a coloring brush, turning from gray to red at an extremely fast speed.

It has become the most beautiful scenery outside of Earth.

This moment.

Li Qingyu seemed to see the sunset in the pitch-black universe.

Gentle, dazzling.

"It's me, and it's not me."

Looking at the sunset in the starry sky, Li Qingyu suddenly blurted out this sentence.

Sauté seemed unsurprised.

"I understand."

I won't tell anyone about you dressing as a woman.

Li Qingyu's lips twitched, and he quickly explained, "It's not women's clothing. It's my daughter's shadow. I'm currently trapped in the star field of Haihuang Star and can't come back. I can only check the situation through my daughter's shadow."

Okay, the whole "daughter's shadow" thing is pure nonsense, but Li Qingyu would never admit to cross-dressing.

"Oh...don't worry, I understand..." Shatang nodded, her face serious.

Li Qingyu blinked, feeling that Sugar was being perfunctory.

Unfortunately, her true form wasn't there at the moment; otherwise, she could have tried holding Satang to see if she could activate her back view form.

"Never mind, what kind of weapon is this? Is it our turn to test it today?" Li Qingyu had no choice but to change the subject.

At this moment, the sunset in the distance grew redder and brighter.

And then, in the center of the sunset, a cold, blue glow finally began to flicker.

Li Qingyu recognized the color.

That sword, and the soul fire in the frost dragon's eyes, were of this color.

It seems that Gray Cloud couldn't remain silent forever and couldn't help but rebel.

"It's a test, and it's also an attack." Shatang looked at the sunset in the distance. "This is an attack from the Star-Based Orbital Cannon, which was built under the supervision of Su Ruobing. If Gray Cloud can't even withstand this wave of attacks, then a general offensive is not a big deal."

"I also have Chu You, mainly to prevent that dog from showing up."

As she spoke, Shatang pointed into the distance.

Li Qingyu turned his head and looked around, but he didn't see Chu You's figure. However, he could feel the sharp sword aura from afar.

"Oh? You and Chu You are both here, what about Leng Feng? Isn't he coming out?" Li Qingyu was a little puzzled. When had that guy ever refused to join in the fun and show off?

"Leng Er?"

Satang waved her hand.

"His main task now is to prevent problems from arising on Chinese soil, and incidentally, to oversee the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation."

"The Ten Thousand Immortals Formation?" Li Qingyu suddenly heard a new term.

"Hmm... Don't worry about the name, it was just chosen randomly..." Sha Tang smiled and said, "It's mainly based on all the advanced spiritual energy cultivators in China, with their respective Taoist temples as nodes, and finally formed into an array that covers the entire country of China."

"It was created when Colonel Chu led us in doing our homework back then."

"Its main function is to super-double the strength of the mastermind of the formation within China."

"And the reason why Leng Feng hosted the event..." Sha Tang shrugged.

"I understand." Li Qingyu stroked his chin. "He's more resilient?"

“That’s right!” Satang nodded.

"There's actually such a formation! What if Chu You were in charge of it? Would that mean it's invincible within China?" Li Qingyu exclaimed in amazement.

"That's one way to understand it, but the safety of the people should still be the priority. Letting Chu You take charge would sacrifice Chu You's mobility. Leng Feng, on the other hand, is the most suitable person to take charge of this kind of formation," Sha Tang explained.

Li Qingyu seemed to be deep in thought.

If he were to preside over the event, would the karmic consequences he could bear be magnified infinitely?

Why not upgrade to SSS-level mushrooms and randomly throw them with Dimensional Claws? Maybe you'll get lucky and blow up gods, demons, and Buddhas, allowing the sweater-wearing man to harvest divinity?

In any case, the bombardment range of SSS-class mushrooms is measured in light-years.

Even if we don't blow up real gods, demons, or Buddhas, it's still a worthwhile trade-off.

What if we get lucky and, like when they bombed Asgard, they blow up the very base of the enemy?

Wouldn't that be a huge windfall?

At that moment, Li Qingyu suddenly felt a strong attraction.

Suddenly.

The unexpected events in the distance interrupted Li Qingyu's excitement.

because....

The gray clouds that had turned into the sunset actually began to drift away.

Like fireflies that were originally gathered together, they scattered and flew away when disturbed.
