The chaos erupted and spread, like a drop of water breaking the calm surface of a lake. At first, only a small circle reacted. As time went on, the surrounding lake surface would slowly ripple and be disturbed.

The two streets where Shi Xing and Er Ya were located were the initial small circle.

Chi Yao was located a little further outside.

When the chaos spread to them, the crowd running away had already revealed the situation.

"There are star beasts."

"Ahhh, the star beasts have entered the celebration, run."

Chi Yao's heart jumped.

Shi Xing!

However, before he could make any move, Xu Jin reacted even faster and called out loudly, "Your Majesty!"

There were only two words, and no information was conveyed, but Chi Yao could understand the deep meaning. Xu Jin was afraid that he would get anxious and spread his mental power over a large area, causing the mental sea in the disorder period to become more turbulent.

Although Chi Yao also wanted to do this subconsciously, he finally held back and raised his hand for a moment to stop Xu Jin from saying the next words of persuasion.

At the same time, he called out, "Bi Zhou."

There was more than one person present who was directly from the empire, and Bi Zhou's combat record was no worse than that of an experienced and senior military officer. This was the advantage brought by the direct bloodline of the imperial royal family. In the face of absolute strength, skills and experience were not of much use.

Bi Zhou obviously thought the same as Chi Yao.

As soon as Chi Yao shouted, his mental power took their group as the center and instantly spread out in all directions like a tide. Moreover, due to their young age and inability to restrain, the level difference brought more pressure to the alliance officials than Chi Yao, making it difficult to breathe.

Will and Li Yu looked at each other in the face of such an absolute crushing level, and both saw fear in each other's eyes.

It was all because Bi Zhou had too little presence in the past few days. They had counted Chi Yao and Shi Xing, but they had missed Bi Zhou, a direct descendant of Berman. A direct

descendant of the imperial royal family, even if he was a minor and his mental power had not yet been graded, was still a very terrifying existence.

In one breath, two breaths, Bi Zhou's mental power had spread like a tide to Shi Xing and his group.

Shi Xing recognized the owner of the spiritual power and did not resist. Instead, he raised his hand to touch and let the other party sense him.

Fei Chu and Fu Qing were occasionally assigned by the palace teachers to train Bi Zhou. They were more familiar with Bi Zhou's spiritual power and did not resist. Only Er Ya took a step back and recognized, "It's Bi Zhou."

The royal spiritual power level was surpassed. Soon, Bi Zhou's spiritual power spread across two streets. The star beast was startled by Bi Zhou's spiritual power and subconsciously wanted to run. Before Shi Xing and Er Ya could make another move, Bi Zhou's spiritual power barrier imprisoned the star beast and locked it firmly in mid-air.

Looking at Jane Miller, who was covered in blood and flesh under the star beast, Shi Xing's expression did not fluctuate. He did not mean to let Bi Zhou let go of the star beast, nor did he feel sorry for being interrupted.

Fei Chu glanced at Shi Xing, and inexplicably felt that at this moment, he and Chi Yao were somewhat similar.

Erya chuckled and said with disdain, revealing the thoughts of everyone present, "He got it badly."

And Bi Zhou, who was being watched by everyone around him, also said "Huh" softly when he felt the star beast.

Xu Jin asked about Chi Yao's anxiety, "What's wrong?"

Bi Zhou had a strange look on his face, "My cousin, Brother Fu, and Brother Shi are all fine, I sensed them, but the star beast is entangled with a mental power..."

Bi Zhou's perception deepened, and after a moment, he confirmed, "A-level, a person with A-level mental power."

Xu Jin was nervous: "Chang Yue!?"

Bi Zhou immediately shook his head, "No, no, no, Brother Chang Yue is with Brother Shi and the others, and they are some distance away from the star beast. "Li, is this person... a resident of the Empire?"

Bi Zhou was surprised, "but everyone around has run away, and this is not the end of a street, it can't be that unfortunate."

At first, I thought someone around Shi Xing was killed. Hearing Bi Zhou say this, Marshal Weier realized something, his breath was choked, and he subconsciously looked at Li Yu. Both of them were sweating on their backs, but they both lowered their heads at the same time. In panic, they didn't dare to show any abnormality.

Hearing that Shi Xing was fine, Chi Yao's slightly wrinkled brows relaxed.

Bi Zhou brought the second good news, "Oh, by the way, I feel Sister Erya, she is here too."

Now Chi Yao was completely relieved.

With Erya here, her attack method is unique. Even if another star beast comes, it will be easy to kill with Fei Chu's cooperation.

Reassured, Chi Yao thought of something else, "Are there any victims around?" After

Chi Yao asked this, Xu Jin realized belatedly that the star beasts eat people, but there are many blue star people in the Empire, and their mental power will dissipate when they mature. There is an endless stream of news about star beasts attacking blue star people. After a long time, people have forgotten everyone's inherent understanding of star beasts before the mother tree appeared.

Star beasts eat people and plunder the resources of the planet. With the outbreak of the beast tide, they swept across the country, and they were like locusts in ancient times.

After a week of mental power scanning, he brought back the news, "One of them has died, and the exact level of mental power cannot be felt."

"The cause of death... the head and body were separated, it should be the attack of the star beast."

The two people, Miller and his followers, perfectly matched in number.

Marshal Will closed his eyes, and his mind began to think of a response plan at a high speed.

However, Bi Zhou had not finished speaking. He tilted his head again and said uncertainly, "Uncle, this star beast is a mutant, but the mutation is a bit strange."

"I can't say for sure."

After all, Bi Zhou was not an adult and had never been on the battlefield. He had seen few star beasts, and it was already very good that he could sense it to this extent.

Chi Yao did not blame him, but nodded and said, "Go and take a look and you will know."

Thinking of something, Chi Yao turned his head to look at the Alliance diplomats who looked suspicious, and smiled and invited, "Will you all join us?"

"Your Majesty is coming this way."

Erya said.

Shi Xing nodded, not surprised, and asked Fu Qing to check Jane Miller's injuries, and said, "Then let's wait here for them to come."

No one objected.

Fu Qing checked and reported, "Four or five ribs were broken, but the ribs were not deeply involved in the dirty things. The leg was fractured, and there were star beast bite marks on the face. Unfortunately, there were no fatal injuries, and the person is still alive."

Then he asked a very morally challenging question, "While waiting for the medical staff to arrive, we can do some first aid measures. Do you need my help?"

Fei Chu was just about to ask Fu Qing not to waste his time, but Shi Xing said first, "Do it. The diplomats from the Alliance will be well received by the Empire if they can help."

His voice was extremely cold, and there was no emotion in the simple command.

Fei Chu's mind turned around, "Oh, yes, do it. Chi will be here soon. We are standing while the diplomats from the Alliance are lying down. This scene is too unfriendly."

Even if all this was inextricably linked to Miller, before it was officially confirmed, standing at the level of the Empire, it was not easy to get angry due to the sensitive identities of both parties. Shi Xing's approach was right, at least it would not leave any handle in front of others.

Shi Xing turned around and asked Fei Chu Erya, "Do I look bad?"

If he hadn't asked, Fei Chu wouldn't have noticed. When he asked, Fei Chu looked carefully and was surprised, "You don't look good at all. Are you scared?"

He asked this, but he didn't think so. When they fought the star beast in the north, the scene was much more exciting than today, and Shi Xing didn't act like this.

Sure enough, Shi Xing shook his head, "I didn't rest well, and then I got this."

"But this is just right."

The diplomats from the alliance will come later, and Miller is lying in danger, so they don't have to look too calm.

Erya raised her eyebrows, and felt that Shi Xing was a little interesting.

A few minutes later, a group of people appeared at the end of the empty long street. Shi Xing saw the familiar outfit, took a small step forward, then stopped and stood at the front of their team.

When they were close enough to see each other's expressions, Chi Yao hadn't said anything yet, Xu Jin shouted, "Little Prince, what's wrong with you? Are you scared?"

Xu Jin was an attendant, usually responsible for the food, clothing, housing, transportation and health of the royal family. He first noticed Shi Xing's bad complexion, which saved a lot of trouble later.

Shi Xing smiled and did not argue, just said, "Not bad."

Then he added meaningfully, "I didn't expect to see a star beast in the imperial capital."

Chi Yao walked in front of Shi Xing, his eyes were all focused on his face. Shi Xing stretched out his hand and he held it. Just as he was about to open his mouth to show his concern, his palm was pinched by Shi Xing.

Chi Yao was stunned, and then Shi Xing hugged Chi Yao directly, burying his whole face in his chest.

The imperial officials and diplomats behind him saw this and intuitively felt that Shi Xing was frightened, because the Blue Star people are recognized to have a weak physique.

Chi Yao: "You take care of it for the next week."

Then he took his people to the side a few steps. Those who had couples all understood that he was going to coax people alone.

An imperial official stole a glance at where the two stood. Sure enough, they were farther away. His Majesty hugged his partner tighter, and Shi Xing also showed a kind of fragility that needed to be supported. The official couldn't help but sigh in his heart, saying that being young is good, and even being in love is so sticky.

And in a place where he couldn't see, Shi Xing turned his back to the crowd with a calm expression, grasping the most important things, and narrating the actual situation to Chi Yao one by one through the intimate posture of hugging each other.

After Shi Xing finished speaking, Chi Yao's eyes also sank.

Shi Xing: "This star beast must not have come from outside, its abilities are very special..."

He and Erya worked together to test it, and this star beast...

"Ah! My goodness, my goodness! It's Bachelor Jane Miller!"

"Oh my God, it's really Bachelor Miller!"

"Bachelor, how could it be a Bachelor, Oh my God, what is going on? What on earth did our alliance diplomats encounter in the empire, you must give us an explanation."

"How could this be, what happened, your people in the empire are fine, why were our alliance diplomats killed?"

Shi Xing knew that he couldn't delay for long, and sure enough, they found out that it was Jane Miller, and the alliance diplomats instantly exploded.

The Imperial reception officers soothed them, "Everyone, please be calm, be calm."

The reception officers said, "There must be some misunderstanding. Besides, we don't want to see the star beasts, and the Empire cannot control who the star beasts will attack. Now the surroundings are safe, please don't panic too much."

Hearing the noise, Chi Yao and Shi Xing looked back. Shi Xing had just finished what he wanted to say, so Chi Yao led Shi Xing forward.

When they were almost there, Shi Xing whispered, "Your Highness, let me explain."

Chi Yao nodded.

After a while, Shi Xing stood in front of the Alliance diplomats with a pale face, tightly grasping Chi Yao's hand, and began to speak very weakly.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted another round of surprise.

Shi Xing said, "I'm sorry, everyone. We didn't take good care of Bachelor Miller, but it's not because we didn't want to, but because we were dealing with another star beast when Bachelor Miller was killed."

Huh? What, there's another star beast? !

Everyone was shocked.

Shi Xing was telling the truth, but he left out a part and blurred some details.

So in everyone's mind, while Shi Xing and his team were struggling to kill an SS-class star beast, this S-class star beast somehow slipped in. This star beast also had an extremely rare space transformation ability, and by chance, it ran into Bachelor Miller and his followers.

Shi Xing looked sad, "This star beast has a strong ability to transform in space, and it can also conceal its breath."

Shi Xing: "The Empire deeply regrets the misfortune that happened to Bachelor Miller. We don't know why all the pedestrians left, but Bachelor Miller was still on the street."

After saying that, he turned his head to the side as if he didn't want to recall it anymore. Under the street light, Shi Xing's eyes were bright, and everyone seemed to see the moisture accumulated in his eyes.

As they got closer, Bi Zhou finally knew where the strangeness he felt was, and reported, "Uncle, although it is a mutant star beast, its attack is very weak, and its mental power does not have the ability to penetrate. It only has a strong ability to transform in space. You see..."

The next moment, Bi Zhou's mental power released the star beast, and the eyes of the Alliance diplomats widened.

Most of the alliance planets are peaceful, and they are also within the galaxy. Not to mention star beasts, battlefields are rare. Releasing star beasts in front of them... the diplomats were all shocked.

But a minute later, the star beast was controlled by Bi Zhou again. It had already jumped to the streets of the Empire a thousand meters away.

But it was still within the control range of Bi Zhou's mental power.

Realizing something, Chi Yao frowned.

He nodded calmly and asked, "Everyone in these two streets ran away, why didn't Bachelor Miller leave?"

This question is a good one. The diplomats, who were angry just now, quickly noticed something strange.

Yes, why is Miller still here? He can't be a target for the star beast, right?

Li Yu said, "Miller has just been discharged from the hospital and is still weak. He came to the celebration just to go out for a walk. Besides, Miller is so old, I'm afraid he won't be as alert as young people."

"This star beast has the ability to jump through space. If it happens to hit the scholar, His Highness Shi Xing is dealing with another star beast. I'm afraid the scholar will be powerless and can't run away even if he wants to."

This answer was expected by Shi Xing. He thought of it when he just reviewed it.

What Shi Xing can think of, Chi Yao can naturally think of as well.

But Chi Yao still had a question, "Why weren't the bachelor's followers with the bachelor, and why was the place of death some distance away from here?"

Will also came back to his senses, and hurried to make up for it, pushing Miller to the position of the victim.

"Maybe it was because the followers didn't come back that Bachelor Miller didn't want to leave? They lived together for so long, the bachelor must have been concerned about the people around him, and it just so happened that the star beast attacked the followers, and Bachelor Miller also had a similar smell, so the star beast attacked the bachelor right after that?" The star

beast is sensitive to smells, so this statement is also tenable.

Shi Xing looked at the street corner and said abruptly, "There are cameras everywhere, and the imperial capital is controlled by a computer. We will know what is going on after investigation."

Li Yu: "..."

Will: "..."

Li Yu said righteously, "Mr. Miller was seriously injured for no reason. I hope the Empire will investigate it thoroughly and give an explanation to our Tianyuan Star and the Alliance diplomats."

Chi Yao said coldly, "Of course."

After a lot of arguing, the First Hospital's airship finally arrived. , the emergency doctor did a simple check on Miller, looked up and asked, "Family, do you have any family?"

Marshal Will stepped out, "Tell me anything."

The doctor said, "The patient is old and has been seriously injured. The situation is not optimistic. He needs surgery immediately when he arrives at the hospital. The surgery requires a signature approval. Can you sign it?"

Marshal Will hesitated for a moment and said, "I can go with you and send the agreement to the family for signature."

"That's fine."

Just as they were about to leave, Chi Yao suddenly said, "The army will follow in a line to protect the personal safety of Bachelor Miller. No one in the First Hospital must be allowed to get hurt." If he

died, it would be a troublesome thing.

There would be no evidence, and then it would become a reason for the alliance to cry.

Fei Chu immediately made arrangements, and within a moment, an imperial official led a small team of people, boarded a battleship and followed the emergency spaceship to leave.

After the medical treatment was completed, the scene was sealed off for follow-up investigation, and the officials of the Alliance and the Empire were subsequently dismissed.

Chi Yao, holding Shi Xing, also boarded the royal spaceship and left.

Chi Yao was fine in front of others, but when he got on the spaceship, his face suddenly became gloomy.

"Black market."

"The Empire has strict defenses. It is unlikely that this star beast came from outer space. In addition, its level and attack power are not high. It is good at hiding its breath. It can appear silently at the celebration. It must have been brought in as a carry-on. It can reach the imperial capital smoothly through the port. It must have used high-tech transportation."

The Alliance has advanced technology, and it is self-evident where the technology comes from.

Chi Yao: "The black market in the imperial capital has not been cleaned up for several years. Taking advantage of this opportunity, it is time to settle the accounts."

Miller's matter can only wait for the results of the investigation.

When Shi Xing first heard that Miller was around, he was shocked and took revenge on the spot. He felt okay on the spaceship. After putting Miller's matter aside, Shi Xing thought of the first star beast again, and felt that it was foggy and unpredictable.

Everyone had their own thoughts, and the atmosphere on the scene was silent for a moment.

Xu Jin said, "Let's wait for the investigation of Miller's matter. Erya is here today, and Xingxing may not know her yet, so don't be so sullen."

Erya stood aside with her arms folded, smiling, "It's okay, I live alone on weekdays, but I haven't seen such a lively scene in many years."

"What a coincidence, the last time I witnessed such an undercurrent, I was with everyone."

Fei Chu: "Don't make fun of us!"

Erya: "How can I be sarcastic? Tell the truth."

Fei Chu shook his head, unbelieving.

After Xu Jin mentioned this, Chi Yao and Shi Xing, as the host and patient, also pulled themselves out of their own thoughts and began to greet Erya formally.

Erya accepted it, and looked at Chi Yao casually and said, "I thought you would never be a good match in your life."

Chi Yao remained calm, "Life is always full of surprises."

Erya: "Indeed, I didn't expect that there would be such a high-level person among the Blue Star people. We can have a good exchange in two days. However, let's go back to the purpose of my visit to the imperial capital - will you carry out a treatment as planned tonight, Your Highness?"

The answer is of course yes.

And Shi Xing also witnessed the terrifying endurance of the doctor from the side.

Draining the beast core of a star beast at the celebration should have consumed a lot of mental energy, but on the way back to the palace from the celebration, Erya seemed to have recovered, and did not show any fatigue from the treatment at night.

Shi Xing breathed a sigh of relief when he felt the healing spiritual power several times greater than his own continuously pouring into Chi Yao's spiritual sea outside the door.

The treatment lasted for more than an hour, and Erya drained her own spiritual power before calling a halt.

It was even darker when it ended, and the dew was heavy. After a night of hard work for the celebration and the star beast, most of the people went back to their rooms to rest.

When Erya came out, her face was full of fatigue. She said hello and went to the guest room that Xu Jin had arranged for her. Shi

Xing held the door frame and stuck his head into the door

, just in time to meet Chi Yao's eyes who had just opened his eyes. Chi Yao waved to him, and Shi Xing glanced outside the door to make sure no one had walked in.

The actual treatment was carried out in one of the rooms in Chi Yao's suite, which was a private space for Chi Yao and Shi Xing, and the attendants would basically not walk in here unless necessary.

Chi Yao rarely sat on the carpet, Shi Xing walked over and asked him expectantly, "How do you feel? Is it effective?"

Chi Yao stretched out his legs and reached out to Shi Xing. Shi Xing was puzzled and clasped his fingers together. Chi Yao then pulled him down, and Shi Xing fell and sat on Chi Yao's legs.

Chi Yao did not answer but asked, "Why are you waiting at the door?"

His voice was a little hoarse, it seems that the treatment was not very comfortable.

Shi Xing put his hands on Chi Yao's face, and the other party did not refuse, but kissed the inside of his arm.

The atmosphere was affectionate, with some unspeakable emotions.

"Yeah."

Shi Xing nodded and acknowledged.

Chi Yao: "Why don't you go and have a rest by yourself, isn't it boring to wait?"

"Fortunately, I can also browse the Star Network while waiting. It's not that boring."

Shi Xing's eyes were bright, which moved Chi Yao, and he couldn't help but reach out and stroke the other's eyes.

Chi Yao: "Are you so worried about me?"

The voice dropped a degree, and the heat from his breath floated over Shi Xing's face, which was a little burning.

Shi Xing learned to fight back, "Then you should get well soon, and when you get well, I won't have to wait for your treatment to end."

Chi Yao laughed, "Which one are you talking about?"

Shi Xing looked deeply into those smoky gray eyes. Although he knew he shouldn't, he still said it, "Of course, the one with a normal mental state and long-term health is the best."

There was a moment of silence in the atmosphere, and Chi Yao promised without hesitation, "That may be a little difficult."

The tone was not heavy, but Shi Xing felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

Shi Xing said firmly, "Doctor Shi will cure you."

This time, without waiting for an answer, Shi Xing grabbed Chi Yao's collar and kissed him. His movements were a bit hasty, and he didn't sit still, so Chi Yao helped him up. When their

lips parted, Shi Xing was well behaved, but Chi Yao was a little messed up by him.

Hugging each other tightly, Chi Yao's kiss landed on Shi Xing's neck, causing a slight shudder.

"Then I'll trouble Doctor Shi."

The chaotic day ended, and Shi Xing slept until noon the next day.

When he woke up, he learned that Miller was seriously injured and needed several operations. Even if the operations were successful, he might not be able to live without drugs for the rest of his life.

It was good news.

The investigation was led by Fei Chu, and the specific black market dealers were found in one morning. Miller and his followers' communicators were seized by the Empire, but there was a special software for the Alliance inside. Miller acted cautiously and deleted all messages after sending them. The Empire's technology did not guarantee that they could be retrieved.

Because the communicators of the Alliance diplomats were not connected to the Imperial Star Network Intranet, they had been using the Star Network Extranet shared by the entire galaxy. In addition, the communicators contained life technology bonuses from other planets in the Alliance... In short, deciphering it was a technical difficulty.

But the news from the black market sellers could not be kept so secret. At around 3 or 4 in the afternoon, evidence of Miller's private chats with the black market was found. Although it did not clearly point to the star beast, it was enough to support the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs in questioning the Alliance.

During dinner, the technical staff asked whether they could decipher the communicators of Miller and his entourage, and would give the palace an answer tomorrow.

But before the results were issued, the Alliance took the initiative and issued a series of documents.

From the Alliance's apology letter to Miller's dismissal and investigation notice, everything was included.

Before Shi Xing could read the documents, Tang Mi accurately gave the meaning of this series of documents. "The Alliance said that Miller was resentful and contacted the black market out of personal grudges. It requested the Empire to repatriate Miller and the Alliance would conduct follow-up investigations."

"At the same time, in view of the fact that Miller's actions have deeply affected and destroyed the friendly relations between the two regimes, if anything is found after he is dismissed and investigated, he will be severely punished."

Shi Xing: "This time they acted quickly."

They acted before they found evidence. It's only been a short time and the Alliance has changed its leader?

Chi Yao read the dismissal and investigation document, threw it on the table, and concluded, "Abandon Marshal Che."

Shi Xing nodded and agreed, "While taking the blame, the Grand Bachelor has become a complete abandonment."

Over the past few hundred years of the Alliance, even if the Grand Bachelors of the Cabinet had problems and were to be dismissed, most of them left in a relatively decent manner. Miller was probably the only one who signed a dismissal and investigation document like this one.

Shi Xing: "Should we agree to repatriation?"

Chi Yao: "He's in the Imperial Hospital anyway, surrounded by the army, so just detain him for a while. If the Alliance chooses a good place for Miller to 'live out his old age' in the subsequent treatment plan, I will consider agreeing."

Thinking of something, Shi Xing: "The Alliance's handling this time is so quick and decisive, it can be said to be brilliant. We have to find a time to notify the person concerned."

The show is over, but the protagonist doesn't know about it, which is really boring.

That night, at the urging of the Empire, Marshal Will and Admiral Li Yu went to visit Bachelor Miller in person, and brought this series of documents to his bedside.

Shi Xing was eating crystal fruit, and when he got the news in the palace, it was said that the First Hospital was already performing rescue surgery again.
