On the morning of the celebration,

Miller woke up in the hospital.

Actually, after being sent here last night, he had already woken up after taking oxygen and drugs at the First Hospital. However, the hospital needed to conduct further examinations and clinical observation. Miller fainted twice in a short period of time. Miller was not young anymore, so he was a little scared and stayed.

In the morning, all the physical examination reports were issued. There was no major problem with his body. The fainting was caused by his old age and excessive emotions.

"Sir, you should keep a cheerful mood at ordinary times."

"According to your relatives, your blood pressure and blood lipids have always been a little high. I have prescribed you some nutritional supplements. Functional drugs are not necessary according to the test report. Do you have any basic drugs? If not, I will prescribe you some more." After

getting the answer, the doctor quickly wrote on the holographic projection screen in front of him and outlined the prescription.

Soon, the medicine was delivered to the ward by the nurse. Miller asked his attendant to pack up and prepare to be discharged from the hospital.

"Bachelor, won't you be observed for another two days?"

This matter scared the attendant enough, and he suggested with a little worry.

Miller shook his head and said firmly, "I still have official business to arrange."

Back at the residence, the celebration will be held in the evening. All diplomats are in a hurry. They are either preparing speeches for the speech session or checking the procedures of the celebration with the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Miller quietly returned to his room. After a while, diplomats from other planets came to ask him whether he would attend the celebration.

Miller was sitting and reading the cabinet documents sent by Tianyuan Star. Hearing this, he remained calm and said weakly, "His Majesty the Empire doesn't like me. I have just been discharged from the hospital. I can go out for a walk by myself in the evening. I will say I am sick and will not attend the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs."

The diplomat nodded and left.

The attendant was angry, "You are the Grand Master of the Cabinet, and you are the leader of the diplomatic team this time. He left without saying a few polite words. How rude!"

Miller smiled, "They are hoping that I will not attend now."

Miller's idea was right. Except for Tianyuan Star, the diplomats of other alliance planets had the same idea. The conflict had already become so intense. Both sides had just made peace. Since Miller had just been discharged from the hospital, for his own health and for the sake of the alliance's diplomatic relations, he might as well not go to the celebration. It would be an eyesore to others and cause trouble for himself.

Of course, other planets thought so, and it was hard to say whether the diplomats of Tianyuan Star wanted Miller to attend.

The situation is right now. Everyone can see that the Empire doesn't like Jan Miller. The Prime Minister has also been angry with Miller several times. If he says he won't attend, I'm afraid everyone will be relieved. No one wants to ask again and again and create trouble.

It's not worth it.

Having served in the Alliance for more than a hundred years, no one knows these twists and turns better than Miller.

He is clear, but he is not angry.

Because he himself is not planning to go to the celebration, he has more important things to do.

Diplomatic relations have come to this point. As the leading diplomat visiting the Empire this time, the Alliance Cabinet has privately sent him a letter of persuasion. The Cabinet will not deal with him openly and let him resign on his own initiative. This is acceptable to both sides and not so ugly.

Would Miller be willing to see his efforts of more than a hundred years go to waste in one day?

How is that possible?

And if this matter is handled well, even if he cannot return to the inner cabinet for the time being, he can return to the political arena of Tianyuan Star. The current Prime Minister is also from Tianyuan Star, so there will always be a chance...

Thinking of this, someone knocked on the door. The attendant opened it, and Marshal Will and Admiral Li Yu were standing outside the door.

The attendant poured tea for everyone, and found an excuse to retreat. Marshal Will opened the barrier, and only three people could hear the conversation in the room.

Marshal Will: "It is said that you, Bachelor, will not attend today's celebration?"

Miller sneered. There was nothing to pretend to be in front of people from his own planet. "It will be embarrassing to go, so it's better not to go."

Will nodded.

Li Yu was too lazy to do these face-saving efforts, and waited quietly for Miller to speak.

After finishing a cup of tea and putting down the cup, Miller said: "Everyone says that His Majesty the Empire has problems with his spiritual sea. I found something else in the palace yesterday. I think..."

Miller: "Yao Bellman did not come to meet us on the first day, and only showed up hurriedly in the afternoon of the second day. It was not because he was not in the reception plan, but because he couldn't come due to a problem."

Will and Li Yu were stunned and looked at each other.

Miller: "There is a high probability that he is in a period of disorder."

Li Yu: "Are you sure?"

Miller: "10 to 10."

Li Yu cautiously: "Are there any substantial facts as evidence?"

Miller glanced at him and said unhappily, "No."

"This is not a trivial matter. Do you think the imperials can't think of the directional details you can notice? Wouldn't the palace be cleaned up before we go there? It would be good to find some clues. Are you sure? This is not the alliance's territory, what are you thinking!"

Li Yu felt embarrassed after being reprimanded mercilessly by Jane Miller, and pursed his lips without saying a word.

Will thought about it, but asked, "Why does the bachelor have such a guess?"

Miller really didn't have any direction. Half of his guess was based on the past diplomatic arrangements of the empire, and the other half was, "Their medical staff have been very active recently. When I fainted and was carried to the guest room for treatment, a large number of palace doctors were able to arrive in a short time. My attendant heard a nurse remind another on-duty person that the requirements in the bedroom were strict, and asked colleagues not to delay."

"There are currently only three direct descendants of the Imperial family. Bi Zhou and Shi Xing seem to be fine. At least the only one who appeared in public was Yao Berman. If there was no problem with the direct descendants of the Imperial family, why were the doctors on duty in the dormitory? Based on my intuition from many years of political experience, I think there is something wrong with Berman's mental sea."

After listening to Miller's analysis, Will also felt that it was very likely, but it was not 100%.

But Miller said one thing correctly. If it is true, it is a big deal. Due to the caution of the Imperial people, they can't get any substantial evidence.

Miller: "We will know whether it is true or not after trying."

Will and Li Yu looked at Miller.

Miller: "Doesn't Tianyuanxing want to know the level of Shixing and the relationship between Shixing and Bellman? It's just right, we can do it together this time."

After a pause, Miller said: "I got a star beast in the imperial capital. If it is a chaotic period, he should not be able to use his mental power on a large scale..."

...

After sending Will and Li Yu away, Miller's entourage came back and changed the teapot.

He didn't show it when he was talking, and after he finished talking, Miller took a tissue and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead due to caution. The entourage has

been following Miller for many years, and although he didn't listen to the conversation, he had a general idea of ​​the content in his mind. He couldn't help but ask Miller worriedly, "Are you sure you really want to do this?"

Miller: "Of course I'm not sure."

But he has no other way to go.

If the diplomacy fails, then he will no longer have a place in the subsequent negotiations, so he can only start with Shi Xing. If he can handle the affairs of the Blue Star people, there is still a chance to turn things around, otherwise...

Miller's eyes darkened, and he asked again: "Has the thing been taken away?" The

entourage nodded.

Miller reminded again: "You must be careful and don't leave any clues..."

At night, the celebration was held as scheduled. Miller sat at an open-air table outside a cafe. He was sitting on a street where the celebration was held. People were coming and going, and it was very lively.

Not long after, Miller frowned when he heard the news that Shi Xing and Chi Yao had separated, and then relaxed again.

"This is better. The level that can be captured is not high. With a distance, it is easier to test."

It is also more convenient for Tianyuanxing's people to rescue from the side and get closer.

Of course, he can't help with this. The opportunity has been created. Whether Li Yu and Will can seize it depends on their own abilities.

After waiting for a while, Miller was about to let his followers notify the other side to take action. There was a commotion from the street next door, and Miller stood up instantly.

Thinking that there was some kind of civil unrest and fearing that the streets would be under curfew, Miller made a prompt decision, "Quick, send a message, don't wait."

The follower agreed.

But within two minutes, the follower looked at the message and turned pale, stammering in fear, "Master, it's not good..."

Miller frowned.

Follower: "After the thing smelled the air collected from the ancient imperial tomb, it, it lost control."

Follower: "It's rushing here at high speed."

The follower swallowed his saliva, looked at the bustling streets not far away, and was inexplicably afraid of the arrival of the star beast, and said, "Master, Master, let's leave quickly." He

was interrupted by Miller, "No."

He forced himself to calm down and said, "Wait a little longer."

At the same time, what Miller didn't expect was that a star beast was already standing in front of Shi Xing.

Shi Xing's mind was confused.

Buzzing.

Especially after hearing it talking, his eyes almost popped out.

Shi Xing didn't know what happened, and he didn't understand it, let alone comprehend it.

This was beyond his common sense.

Star beast, how can a star beast... talk? !

Even if it uses energy to communicate, it's too weird!!

As Shi Xing was still, the star beast took the lead and threw its mental power on Shi Xing's barrier. Shi Xing felt a pressure, which was nothing to him, but then, the second and third energy attacks came, and Shi Xing gradually became exhausted. Why did he feel that this

was not an attack, but more like... a test?

It was hard to say, Shi Xing felt that there was an expression on the face of the star beast, as if it was very satisfied.

Suddenly, a long roar was raised to the sky.

It sounded quiet to human ears, but...

"Oh no, it's spiritual power, what is it looking for?" Fei Chu, who had already blocked Shi Xing when the star beast arrived, said.

Fu Qing reacted faster, "It's calling its companions!"

Shi Xing thought it was not, and raised his eyes. Under the first talent, the spiritual power emitted by Chang Xiao appeared in a straight line and rushed to the sky.

The atmosphere of the empire is protected by a self-built energy barrier, and the control above the imperial capital is even stricter because of diplomatic visits. Shi Xing is not very worried about the interception of this spiritual power. What he is concerned about is... who is the other party calling? Or, what message is this voice conveying? !

"Blue Star people, high level, very good."

That kind of energy sound came again, disturbing Shi Xing's thoughts.

Before the star beast took action, Fei Chu and Fu Qing had already stepped forward and struck first.

"Take Xingxing to find Chi Yao!"

Fei Chu shouted loudly when the mental attack was launched.

He had experienced this before returning to the imperial capital. Yan Changyue shouted with mental power, "Come on, a star beast has entered the street!" He

pulled Shi Xing and ran in the opposite direction. During the fierce running, Shi Xing was completely confused.

His brain was spinning rapidly. This star beast looked scarred. It should have used the space ability to hide for a long time and cover its own breath. This star beast...

Just after using his innate ability, Shi Xing also discovered something else. The mental color of this star beast is very similar to the 3S-level one killed above the northern border. This is the first time Shi Xing has seen such a similar and overlapping mental color.

I don't know...

The wind blew at Shi Xing, and everything happened in just a few minutes. The air in his lungs was almost sucked out while running.

I don't know when the street was empty.

Suddenly, a figure appeared at the corner. Shi Xing was anxious: "Don't come this way, there is..."

Before he finished speaking, accompanied by a wave of energy, Shi Xing saw the pair of bright yellow eyes again.

The star beast used the space leap ability to catch up with him.

The two stopped suddenly, Yan Changyue subconsciously protected Shi Xing behind him, and took two steps back.

Shi Xing looked at the star beast and frowned.

Shi Xing was right. This star beast was extremely weak and had many new wounds on its body. They were probably the work of Fei Chu and Fu Qing. Once it stopped in front of him, although Fei Chu and Fu Qing had no way to get there in such a short time, their mental barriers almost instantly appeared in front of Shi Xing, separating Shi Xing and the star beast.

"Follow me."

The star beast said.

Shi Xing couldn't help it anymore and replied, "Impossible!"

This sentence caused Yan Changyue to look to the side with a look of surprise.

Shi Xing covered his throat, and realized belatedly that he was not talking just now. What he used just now was the same energy fluctuation as the Star Beast.

Shi Xing had no idea how he did it.

The Star Beast stood there for a while, as if it was digesting Shi Xing's meaning. When Shi Xing raised his head, the opponent had already rushed over.

It seemed that the communication failed (if that could be considered communication), and it was ready to force it.

Shi Xing subconsciously opened the barrier and dragged Yan Changyue to run back. Fei Chu and Fu Qing must be approaching them. As long as they hit each other, facing such a seriously injured Star Beast, they may not be without a chance of winning.

But before he could take a step, a scene that surprised both him and Yan Changyue happened. The Star Beast was fixed in mid-air.

It didn't seem like it was voluntary, because the moment it froze, it struggled fiercely.

Then an even more bizarre scene appeared in front of Shi Xing.

The star beast was wrapped in energy and began to howl in pain. It tried to use its spatial ability to jump several times, but was stopped by the sudden energy. Shi Xing did not feel any offensiveness from this mental power.

Yan Changyue: "What happened?"

Shi Xing asked, "Is its... its spiritual power draining away?"

Yes, the energy that suddenly appeared was not offensive, but demanding, the demand for energy, just like...

Yan Changyue slapped his forehead and gave the answer, "Er Ya!"

As these two words came out, the star beast in midair lost its spiritual power at an extremely terrifying speed. Finally, in Shi Xing's sight, the beast core shattered and then collapsed instantly.

Shi Xing: "!"

Plop -

the beast core completely disappeared in the star beast's body under Shi Xing's innate ability. The star beast lost its energy source and fell to the ground with a huge muffled sound.

The figure that Shi Xing saw at the corner just now became larger and more solid. Under the streetlight, a young lady appeared behind the star beast, with thin eyebrows and a cold temperament.

The sound of running could be heard behind him.

Er Ya raised her hand and greeted everyone, "Long time no see. It's just right that General Fei is here to give him a second blow."

Before Shi Xing could react to the meaning of this sentence, Fei Chu's spiritual power descended from the sky and cut the star beast in half from a distance like cutting meat.

Shi Xing: "..."

Everything happened too fast, and he didn't even have time to stop it.

After another thought, this star beast appeared too abruptly, and the situation on it was too strange. Even if he stayed, Shi Xing didn't know what to ask it, so he let it go.

"Xingxing, Changyue, are you okay?" Fu Qing stopped beside the two and asked.

After receiving Yan Changyue's unimpeded answer, he nodded.

Fei Chu passed by Shi Xing and Yan Changyue and ran to the star beast. He used his mental power to make a few more cuts. After confirming that the star beast was dead, he looked at Erya and said politely, "Long time no see. Fortunately, you came today, otherwise it would not end well."

This star beast has the ability to jump through space. It has too many concerns when fighting in the city.

Seeing that the situation was under control, Shi Xing stepped forward and after confirming that the star beast was indeed hopeless, he raised his eyes.

When he got closer, he could see Erya's full appearance.

The facial features still have the characteristics of the blue star people, gentle and non-aggressive, but the skin is wheat-colored, which is different from the whiteness of the ordinary blue star people.

Noticing Shi Xing's gaze, Erya raised her hand to look at her skin color and explained, "When I was in the outer star system, the planet had good sunlight. My skin color changed a little after being exposed to the sun for a long time. It will return to normal after a while."

Shi Xing nodded.

Considering that this was the first time the two sides met, Fei Chu made a very solemn introduction for Shi Xing and Erya.

Erya stretched out a hand, "I have heard of your name for a long time, Erya."

Shi Xing shook hands with her and said sincerely, "I have heard of you for a long time, my name is Shi Xing."

Shi Xing hesitated: "How did you just... kill the star beast?"

He didn't know if he could ask, but this was indeed the point that Shi Xing cared about the most and was the most puzzled.

Erya smiled, "It was Admiral Fei who killed it, not me. I just drained its spiritual power and absorbed its beast core."

This is also very scary!

If the star beast had not lost its beast core and spiritual power, Fei Chu would not have been able to kill it like cutting meat!

Seeing Shi Xing's stunned and unbelievable look, Erya smiled wider and asked Yan Changyue and Fei Chu, "Didn't you tell him?"

Yan Changyue didn't know how to answer, and Fei Chu said straightforwardly, "Your story is too troublesome to talk about, and it involves too many things. We are too lazy to bother with it, so let His Majesty tell it."

She paused, glanced at Shi Xing's confused look, and said for him, "But they have been very busy since returning to the imperial capital, and maybe they haven't had time to talk about you in private."

Erya didn't worry either. Since Shi Xing asked, she replied, "It's the ability of the Blue Star people to absorb energy."

Shi Xing knew, but, "It's not just Do you need to touch it to absorb it?"

Erya: "It should be related to the level. I can only do it after the leap. Before that, I also absorbed by touching it."

Looking at Shi Xing, Erya said firmly, "You are at such a high level, you should be able to do it. I will stay in the imperial capital for a long time this time. I will teach you later to see if you can do it."

Thinking of something, Erya said, "But it may also be an enhanced ability after maturity. The time I was able to absorb energy with mental power was when my maturity was about to end, so it's hard to say."

Shi Xing nodded, and looked at the star beast again, still feeling shocked.

If he can...

Before the communication could continue, Erya's expression suddenly changed, "Something else is coming."

After feeling it, Erya was sure, "Another star beast is coming, and the level is not high."

Fei Chu spat, "Damn it!" Fu

Qing was realistic: "Is it still of this level?"

Before Erya could answer, Shi Xing also felt it, and subconsciously said, "No, it feels much lower in level, S level? A level?"

Erya: "The weak one in S level."

Erya frowned, "Strange."

"This is only an SS-level one. It's easy to deal with if it's seriously injured. Why is the new one so weak? There are strict levels among star beasts. If there are companions, the level difference will not be too big."

Fei Chu said angrily: "I want to know now. It's okay to have one, but what is the purpose of the guards of the imperial capital? If I don't check it out thoroughly when I go back, I'm not Fei..."

Before he finished speaking, a wave of energy appeared under Shi Xing's innate ability. Before it fully appeared, Shi Xing opened the barrier.

But it didn't protect them, but imprisoned that thing tightly.

A moment later, another star beast with space ability appeared in front of everyone, howling arrogantly.

And everyone was silent.

A small part of the reason was that this was another star beast with the ability of space transformation. Is the ability of space transformation so common now?

The other reason that made everyone speechless was that this star beast was too weak. It...

confirmed something. Shi Xing said happily, "Hey, he can't get rid of my barrier~"

Fei Chu also saw a ghost. At this moment, he especially wanted to light a cigarette to suppress his surprise.

Erya looked at it carefully for a while and confirmed, "He is too far behind you in level, and he really can't break free from your confinement."

Erya: "You open the barrier, I will absorb some of its mental power first."

The two blue star people divided the work and cooperated in an orderly manner. As soon as Shi Xing's barrier was removed, Erya followed closely. Inside her barrier, Fei Chu's face was full of numbness and he once again witnessed a star beast that went from arrogant and arrogant to fragile and helpless when its mental power was absorbed.

Strangely, Erya only absorbed half of its mental power, and then, instead of removing the barrier, she spread her mental power over a large area.

After a few seconds, the mental power was recovered, and Erya said, "Don't blame me for conspiracy. Most of the people in these two streets have run away, but there are still two people sitting on the street next door. The appearance of this star beast is strange, so..."

Shi Xing was puzzled.

Erya showed a subtle smile, "One of them has left. Do you think he will come here?"

Erya: "Let's play a game of hide-and-seek."

Miller's followers were called to come over to see the situation. Even though they were reluctant, they had to come.

As soon as he grasped the corner of the wall and stuck his head out, he was met with a pair of bright vertical pupils. The follower shouted and was immediately thrown down.

Before falling to the ground, he vaguely felt that there was a group of people standing behind the star beast.

When the head and body separated, he recognized that it was His Highness Shi Xing and his group.

But what he could never understand was why the star beast did not attack the blue star people. The star beast that had gone berserk when it smelled the air with Shi Xing's spiritual power seemed to be unable to see the other party at this moment?

But he will never figure it out.

When the star beast was controlled again, Erya walked up to the follower and said firmly, "He recognized Shi Xing and came to check the situation."

After seeing the man's face clearly, Shi Xing's expression instantly turned cold.

Erya: "Do you still want to release the star beast to find someone on that street?"

Shi Xing: "Why not?"

The whole process here took no more than ten minutes from beginning to end. He didn't believe that the person behind the plot would leave so quickly before getting the result.

A few minutes later, Miller waited in front of the coffee shop, but his follower didn't come, but a man-eating star beast with a mouth full of blood. Miller's

pupils shrank, and he ran immediately. After two steps, he was thrown to the ground by the star beast without any suspense.
