Chapter 477 Falling into Mortal Mud
"Who exactly are you people? What are you investigating me for? Are you really after my abilities, or do you want something from me?"
"Besides, you were sent by that crazy woman, weren't you? Heh, I knew that madwoman wouldn't let us go."
As she spoke, her eyes reddened.
Gu Qing and Chen Xingheng exchanged a glance. Suddenly, Chen Xingheng's spiritual form, a large white tiger, materialized and lay down outside the door. I was at the door.
“We weren’t sent by Sophia. Sophia has already been taken back to the Imperial Capital by Kavil.”
If others heard this, they would be confused and at most wonder, "Cavill, what's with the prince again?"
But the person who understands you best is often your enemy. Gu Qing's words made her understand this relationship instantly, and her eyes lit up.
She hadn't slept for two nights because she was making a small item, and she only finished today. She was woken up while she was sleeping, so she doesn't know about this yet.
He stared at Gu Qing as if confirming something.
Gu Qing smiled and nodded. "I'm not sure what the future holds for this place, but for the time being, no one will come looking for you. I came to you simply because I admire your talent."
As she spoke, she pointed at the little robot again with her finger.
The little robot replied promptly, "Please don't tease me."
The boy, his voice hoarse, said to Qing Lingyin, "My name is Phoebe."
"Oh right, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm from the Federation, and my name is Gu Qing. I'm developing a planting planet, so we're currently in dire need of talent."
But it's not to the point where I can't live without you, so you really don't need to be so paranoid.
Her eyes were smiling, and she tried her best to make her tone sincere.
"Gu Qing?" She was a hacker and had a deep understanding of some well-known families in the Empire and the Federation, because she had considered joining one of them to avenge herself and her brother.
However, given the vested interests of those noble families, she had nothing to offer them, and then she clashed with another aristocratic royal family.
She sometimes hated herself. If she were a high-level ability user, she would still have a sliver of hope, but in reality, her talent level was only C-grade.
If she were a purifier, she might have some standing, but as a fighter, even if she wanted to use birth rate to leverage interests, no one would even look at her.
After all, she wasn't particularly talented, and being the child of a fighter, she would 100% be either a fighter or an ordinary person.
However, the Federation and the Empire are different, and Gu Qing, the Purifier, is different from others. She suddenly felt that this was a good suggestion, but as a noble, she did not completely trust the other party's character.
"What do I need to give in return? How can you guarantee that what you're saying is true?"
So she stared straight at Gu Qing, like a drowning person staring at the only buoy on the sea.
Gu Qing knew what was going on as soon as she heard that, so she smiled. "You have to give your all to protect my future star. As for how I can guarantee what I say, we can sign a contract on the mainframe. I can swear to the God of Purification."
In interstellar space, people swear oaths to their own mental image. Although everyone in the interstellar space says they don't believe in this, no one is willing to solemnly make such an oath.
"This is my sincerity. If you have any other ideas, you can tell me, but I won't agree to anything too outrageous. After all... I am God, and that cannot be changed."
Phoebe's eyes lit up at Gu Qing's assertiveness. She wasn't afraid of someone having demands or being demanding; what she feared was no demands at all. Giving without demands was the greatest demand of all.
"Yes, I can serve you as my master and serve you for the rest of my life, but I have one condition: I want Princess Sofia's life. Even if I can't take her life, I want her to be condemned to a life worse than death."
Her voice was filled with hatred, laced with gritted teeth.
Gu Qing stood up and patted her back to calm his trembling heart, then gently whispered in her ear, "Your request will soon be fulfilled, so pack up now! I'll take you back, and from now on, you'll serve me for the rest of your life."
Phoebe's mouth stretched wider and wider as she spoke, and she stared at her intently as Phoebe left her side. Gu Qing nodded to her, confirming her guess.
Phoebe's guess was that Gu Qing probably knew the eldest prince would cripple Sophia, but she wouldn't suspect Gu Qing was behind it. After all, she understood Gu Qing's background, and if she were to act, the conflict between the Empire and the Federation would escalate.
But how could someone who can single-handedly safeguard such a large family business and control so much power not consider the bigger picture?
