Chapter 90 Return to the Tara Mining Area
Hua Jingxin, the head of the Hua Jing family, died. His successor, Hua Jingzhi, used ruthless methods to intimidate and control the elders in the family. He publicly expressed his support for the new Alliance Council's abolitionist policy and secretly formed an alliance with the Silverwing Legion Commander.
With Hua Jingzhi's defection, the Simmons and Ke families, who had originally intended to resist to the bitter end, were forced to compromise, publicly expressing their support for the new government and voluntarily freeing all the slaves in their homes.
With the support of Hua Jingzhi and the Long family, and with Tang Haohan's Silver Wing Legion as a backer, the new government has finally stabilized the situation.
This coup was almost bloodless, merely eliminating former Speaker Herbert Dewey and his staunch supporters without causing large-scale casualties.
Most importantly, the new government gained widespread popular support because it abolished slavery.
When Xiaobai and his group returned to the Tara mining area after their successful retirement, at least half of the miners were still there, waiting for Xiaobai's return.
Slavery was abolished, and these extraterrestrial miners no longer wanted to risk going to other planets.
Xiao Bai decided to close the Tara mining area. Hua Jingzhi agreed to take all the profits from the mining area over the years and distribute them to the miners. He also promised to build a residential area in Xiya City and provide them with free housing.
In this way, they have all found a good home.

As soon as Yu Shan stepped off the aircraft carrier, she saw a young girl running towards her with tears in her eyes.
"She's Lele's aunt, the orphan you took in back then, Mom," Achen whispered a reminder from the side.
Yu Shan originally intended to dodge to the side, but because of her son's reminder, she opened her arms and caught the girl who was rushing towards her.
"Sister, you're awake! That's wonderful! Waaah!" Lele threw herself into her arms, tears of joy wetting her chest.
Yu Shan was designated as the next Holy Maiden from a very young age. Her maids treated her with great respect, but no one dared to regard her as a close friend.
Being suddenly hugged like this by a girl was a little unusual for her, but her body seemed to be used to it. She even subconsciously reached out to hug her back and gently stroked her hair to comfort her.
"Sister, you don't know how guilty and remorseful I felt when I tried my best but failed to wake you up. I hated myself for being so useless, for not being able to exchange my life for yours and wake you up."
After Ah Chen took you away, I worried every day, afraid that he was too young to protect you, and also afraid that they would issue an arrest warrant to hunt you down.
Fortunately, our Ah Chen is capable; he actually found a treasure that can wake you up. When I heard the news from Sister Mina, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep all night..."
Lele kept chattering away, and Yu Shan, who usually disliked getting too close to people, surprisingly pushed her away without any disgust.
When she was a saintess, she shouldered the rise and fall of her entire clan. She worked hard every day to cultivate and improve her cultivation level. The joys and sorrows of ordinary people were far removed from her.
Only now does she realize that being an ordinary person is not without its advantages; at least she has experienced the emotions and desires of an ordinary person.
She had a man and son who loved her deeply by her side, and even when she was unconscious and on the verge of death, she still had so many sisters and friends who never abandoned her.
Yu Shan decided to do something for these friends, not to repay their deep affection, but to fulfill the wish of her former self—the one named Zuo Shan.
