The complete annihilation of the interstellar mutated monsters took place two months later.
In the past two months, almost everyone in the entire intergalactic world has learned one thing.
As a fallen beast, the dragon god cannot, like other sacred beasts, accept that people worship him while worshipping other sacred beasts.
Based on his contributions in the fight against the interstellar mutated monsters, many citizens who had not been on the battlefield also tried to pray to him and make offerings to him.
As a result, after the war, Ao Cang completely transformed from a fallen beast into a holy beast, and the death energy in his body was completely cleared away. His form also changed from a thunder dragon at the beginning to his final form - a black dragon.
This is almost unprecedented in interstellar history.
Naturally, this led to a significant increase in followers who initially intended to purely believe in him, resulting in Qiao Mei having far fewer opportunities to meet him.
Fortunately, because the Federation planet had been extensively damaged by the invasion of interstellar monsters, it was in dire need of manpower to help rebuild, and as a student of the Federation Academy, she naturally joined in.
During this time, she saw Shu Qingqing, who had also come to help, and remembered how Shu Qingqing had insisted on joining the Federation Army rather than the Interstellar Army. She asked her, "Now the Interstellar Army's prestige is far higher than that of the Federation Army. Are you planning to change your mind?"
She and Shang Duojin are currently in the interstellar military, and of course they hope that Shu Qingqing can go there as well.
Qiao Mei had expected Shu Qingqing to refuse, but to her surprise, she nodded.
"Well, the reason I wanted to join the Federation Army was to prevent them from maintaining their monopoly. Now that the Interstellar Army has firmly suppressed it, there's no need for me to go there anymore."
After saying that, she looked at Qiao Mei's puzzled eyes, sighed, and pulled her aside to tell her the reason.
It turns out that Shu Qingqing's father was once a high-ranking official in the federal army, but he offended someone during his career advancement, which ultimately led to his murder.
Even after her death, those people pretended that it was her eccentric mother who did it.
"Although I know that Pang Cuihong did not kill him, she is also an indirect murderer. Now, seeing the Federal Army being suppressed to the point of almost disbanding, I can finally vent my anger."
Qiao Mei said it was strange that Shu Qingqing was so determined to join the Federal Army before; it turns out there was another reason behind it.
He patted her on the shoulder to comfort her, handed her a tissue to wipe her tears, and then asked her how things were going between her and Shang Duojin.
"Cangcang and I have already agreed that once the Federation Star is rebuilt, which is this winter, I will officially marry him. What about you?"
Mentioning this, Shu Qingqing's face flushed slightly: "Shang Duojin seems very eager, saying he wants to marry me in two months, but I think it's too rushed. What do you think, Qiaoqiao?"
Two months later, the reconstruction of the Federation Star is estimated to be half completed. Qiao Mei thought for a moment, but was unsure: "It's hard to say. You have to ask him and see why he's in such a rush."
"If the reason is right, you can get married two months later. If you think about it carefully, my wedding and Cangcang's wedding will be two months after yours. We can't have them all at the same time, can we?"
A wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and for some people, it's a once-in-a-lifetime occasion.
Of course, it's impossible to share this space-time with others.
Shu Qingqing thought so too, so after returning, she found Shang Duojin and asked him carefully about the reason.
"Why did you suddenly think of asking this?" His expression looked very unnatural, and it was obvious that he was hiding something.
"Never mind that, just tell me first if there's a reason? If not, we're not in a rush to have the wedding, I think it's a bit too rushed."
"What's the rush?! This is a special day I specially chose..."
Halfway through his sentence, Shang Duojin realized he had let something slip and quickly stopped talking. However, Shu Qingqing still noticed something was wrong and frowned, asking him, "What exactly? If you don't explain yourself clearly today, I absolutely will not agree to your request."
Her attitude was very firm, and after seeing Shang Duojin hesitate, he finally confessed.
"I...I consulted a fortune teller who said that only by getting married on that specific day can we ensure our marriage will never break down, and that you will stay with me forever..."
As he spoke, Shang Duojin's ears turned bright red. Shu Qingqing, seeing his awkward expression, never expected it to be for this reason.
After a long pause, she suppressed the tears welling up in her eyes, cupped his face, and kissed his lips hard: "You should have said so earlier! Then I'll reluctantly agree."
.........
Two months later, when the reconstruction of the Federation Star was halfway complete, Shang Duojin, the youngest son of the merchant, held a grand wedding on the Empire Star.
Among the guests were not only many celebrities, but also quite a few students from the Federal College.
Qiao Mei and Ao Cang had promised Lai Qin that they would take good care of Qiao Yingying during her pregnancy. When they visited her after Shang Duojin and Shu Qingqing's wedding banquet, they brought her some wedding candies.
Compared to two months ago, Qiao Yingying's condition has visibly improved a lot thanks to Ao Cang's protection, and her lower abdomen has a more defined shape.
When they arrived, Qiao Yingying's adopted brother, Qiao Guang, was washing fruit for her, while Qiao Yingying stared blankly at the artificial lake outside the window, lost in thought.
To be honest, if it weren't for her promise to Lai Tan, Qiao Mei wouldn't have wanted to spend time with Qiao Yingying. So after Ao Cang finished her routine divine healing and put down the wedding candy, she planned to leave immediately.
Before leaving, as expected, I heard Qiao Yingying ask again, "Still no news from him today?"
Qiao Mei knew who she was referring to when she said "him," and after pursing her lips, she shook her head: "No, you should take good care of yourself."
Regarding Lai Tan, they haven't seen him in the interstellar monster battlefield for two months, so there's a high probability he's gone.
However, to her surprise, she never expected that Qiao Yingying, a proud person, could fall in love with someone.
After the interstellar crisis was resolved, the Book of the World in her mind bid her farewell.
The mission to help restore the world order in the book was successfully completed, and according to the rules, Qiao Mei was supposed to be sent back to the real world.
But the Book of the World said that because she completed the mission perfectly, it asked its superiors and granted her special permission to stay in the world within the book and continue living, but it was up to her to choose.
Qiao Mei naturally chose to stay in the world within the book. Before the Book of the World left, it hesitated for a long time before finally telling her a fact that it had been keeping from her.
[According to the rules, I shouldn't say this, but since I'm about to leave, it won't hurt to tell you. Also, take this prop; use it to deal with Xu Heyu and Qiao Yingying.]
