Chapter 223
After Yuan Jing met He Chen, he disappeared for half a year. In addition, he had been in the First Legion for the previous year. He no longer appeared in various media and Star Network platforms, but his whereabouts still attracted many people's attention.
Because every time someone comes forward after him, they are always compared with Yuan Jing. Oh, this level is far behind Chen Yuanjing at that time. Is this worth writing about? If Chen Yuanjing comes out, his strength will definitely beat them.
If Chen Yuanjing had not graduated from the military academy early, he would not be even older than those guys who are in the limelight now.
So even though Yuan Jing has not appeared again, many netizens are still thinking about him and he shows his presence from time to time. This makes some noble families who want to package their own children very angry about this situation. Is this Chen Yuanjing's ghost going to linger around?
However, some noble families got inside information and sneered at the online news. What's the use of Chen Yuanjing's genius? A dead genius is not worth a single star coin. After all, this interstellar empire is still their family's empire. They will not allow another Wei Mingfeng to appear.
After dealing with Chen Yuanjing, it will be Wei Mingfeng's turn next. The heir to the throne they have their eyes on is the third prince Luo Jingshen, not the current crown prince Luo Jinglan.
Half a year later, a video was quietly uploaded to Starnet. People who accidentally clicked on it found that Chen Yuanjing appeared in the video. They immediately called their friends and countless people flocked to watch it.
It was a video of an extremely intense battle. A group of mechas descended from the sky and raided an unnamed base. Their offensive was very fierce and they were unstoppable all the way. The fighting style of the leading mecha was very familiar to people. When the first person called out was Chen Yuanjing, many people agreed. After a year and a half, they saw Chen Yuanjing again, and his mecha operation and fighting were even better. At this moment, netizens did not dare to easily conclude who was better between him and General Wei.
"I know. The base that was attacked belonged to the Black Spider Pirates. Did you see the sign in the base? The Black Spider Pirates act very arrogantly and never hide their identities. They are even afraid that others don't know."
"Shit, so this is Chen Yuanjing leading people to raid the Black Spider Pirates' lair?"
"I don't know if it's their lair yet. After all, the Black Spider Pirates' hiding place is very secretive. Even the First Legion has failed in their battles with the Black Spider Pirates several times."
"You're wrong. This is the Black Spider Pirates' lair. See that mecha that rushed out? It belongs to the Black Spider Pirates' boss."
"Sure enough! They're fighting with Chen Yuanjing!"
"Ah! He was kicked away by Chen Yuanjing right after the fight?"
"Ah, Chen Yuanjing chased after that guy and beat him up again."
"Oh my, that guy's mecha was torn apart by Chen Yuanjing. This is too violent."
"The guy in the mecha has been pulled out. Can you see if he is the leader of the Black Spider?"
"It's him! I would recognize him even if he turned into ashes! My aunt's family was killed by the Black Spider Pirates."
"Me too. My brother and sister-in-law were out for fun when they ran into the Black Spider Pirates and they were also killed."
…
Many people came out to accuse the Black Spider Star Pirate Gang. The Black Spider boss once appeared on the Star Web to challenge everyone's nerves. He provoked the Interstellar Empire and arrogantly shouted that he was there and someone came to catch him. However, now this arrogant guy was stepped on by Yuan Jing and his face was crushed on the ground, which made all the victims' families scream with pleasure.
Yuan Jing stepped on it and said, "Didn't you say you wanted to tame me? Now I'm here, so why don't you welcome me?"
The boss of the Black Spider Pirates is nicknamed Black Spider. He was forced to swallow sand into his mouth and could not move at all under Yuan Jing's feet. He hated the person who provided him with the information. This Chen Yuanjing was not an SS-level strength. He was also an SS-level strength, but he could not get through a few moves in the hands of Chen Yuanjing, especially his mental power. One impact made his mental power riot.
This boss doesn't care about gender. He had previously announced that if Chen Yuanjing dared to come, he would not kill him for the sake of his face, but would tame this beauty.
"Come here, take him away and keep him under strict guard. I want to interrogate him personally."
"Yes, Boss!"
"Someone come in with me."
"Yes, Boss!"
The people under Yuan Jing are now very convinced. The Black Spider Pirates, who had been a tough nut to crack for so many years, were finally found their lair by Yuan Jing, who then led them to take down the lair. Look at these guys, they hadn't even reacted when Yuan Jing attacked.
They didn’t know how the boss did it, but they would receive secret letters from the boss every once in a while, and the last one was this operation.
The Black Spider pirates are also very capable. They hollowed out an old mining planet, set up their base camp inside the mining planet, and arranged the entire mining planet into a space fortress. When they followed Yuan Jing in, they realized how dangerous this operation was. For some reason, this space fortress lost its monitoring of the outside world, otherwise no spaceship or starship would have approached without their permission and would have been shot down by artillery fire long ago.
The video continued and more people were attracted to it. They also wanted to see what the Black Spider Pirates’ base looked like. When they finished watching the whole thing, the star network exploded.
Because someone dug it out, a batch of mechas inside were the latest to come off the assembly line, and they had not even been equipped in the Imperial Army, but they appeared in the hands of these pirates and were armed. Some of the starships in the base were also the most advanced. Some starship fans who watched the video could immediately report the model and latest functions of the starship, but they would be suitable no matter where they appeared, but they should not appear in the pirates' base.
Finally, Yuan Jing came to a mecha production workshop and told everyone that there was a mecha production line here. It originally belonged to the He family of Red Leaf Star, but after the He family members died in accidents one after another, the mecha production lines were owned by the Ren family. Now one of them appeared in the Black Spider Star Pirates' base, and he really hoped that the Ren family could explain it.
The video ended here, but the movement on Star Network did not stop. Netizens were in an uproar, and many people who were involved with the aristocratic families came out to confirm that the mecha production lines of the He family were indeed owned by the Ren family. After all, all the members of the He family died, and the Ren family was the in-laws of the He family, so it seemed not wrong for the Ren family to take over.
Not bad! Seeing the He family's mecha production line in the Black Spider Pirates' base camp, even the dumbest person can guess what's going on. How did the second wife of Ren die? Wasn't she killed by the Black Spider Pirates? As a result, the He family's property was divided up by the Ren family and the Black Spider Pirates. Doesn't this prove that the two are in collusion?
Damn, the Ren family is so shameless that some netizens directly started cursing them on Starnet.
No wonder when the Ren family wanted to recognize Chen Yuanjing, Chen Yuanjing didn't show any willingness. Some people from the military academy couldn't help but reveal the news. They said that when Ren Yihan ran to Chen Yuanjing and said that he was the child of his second uncle, Chen Yuanjing asked Ren Yihan to take a message back and ask him how his mother died. So Chen Yuanjing knew who had killed them long ago.
"Let me tell you, not all members of the He family are dead. The He family's property is not the Ren family's turn to inherit. The Ren family is just a bunch of robbers! He Chuning's nephew is still alive. He is now the captain of the Fenglei Mercenary Team on the Mercenary Planet. He is the direct heir to the He family's property. Even Chen Yuanjing is more qualified to inherit that huge fortune than the Ren family."
"Fuck, there really is someone from the He family still alive. I thought Chen Yuanjing was the only bloodline left."
"I know the Fenglei Mercenary Team. The captain of the Fenglei Mercenary Team is He Chen. It seems that he is really a member of the He family. Haha, when will the Ren family return the He family's property that they have occupied?"
"I don't know how long this video can survive. You know, the Ren family is so powerful."
"The Ren family has angered the public. Do they really think that the Interstellar Empire now belongs to them? Let alone other things, just the hundreds of lives lost on that spaceship nineteen years ago, shouldn't the Ren family give everyone an explanation?"
Countless people flocked to the official platform of the empire, strongly demanding a thorough investigation of what happened that year and a fair explanation to the deceased and their families.
The Ren family panicked, and so did the families that were related to the Ren family. The Ren family wanted to suppress the news on StarNet by force, but it didn't work this time, because the emperor himself ordered a thorough investigation! He wanted to see how many corrupt officials were hiding in the empire, and give an explanation to the angry people.
Because the video uploaded to Starnet was not a live broadcast, but a recorded broadcast. When netizens saw this video, the battle had already ended. The Black Spider Pirates' base was destroyed, several pirates were arrested, and a lot of evidence was found. These evidences have been directly submitted.
Even though he knew that these noble families did whatever they wanted in private, he never expected that their hands would be so long and that so many lives would be on their hands. Not only those civilians who died in the starry sea due to spacecraft crashes, but also several mining stars involving tens of millions of lives were hidden by these noble families headed by the Ren family.
The Brown family was terribly panicked and rushed to the palace to see the imperial concubine, asking her to persuade the emperor to suppress the matter for the time being. If the Ren family was in trouble, the Brown family would not be much better off, as this also affected the question of whether the third prince could ascend to the throne in the future.
Ever since the marriage, the Brown family and the Ren family have been increasingly intertwined. The reason why the spaceship that He Chuning and his mother were on had an accident was because of the joint arrangement of the Ren family and the Brown family, so that other innocent passengers on the spaceship would be buried with them. This idea was first proposed by Lisa, the illegitimate daughter of the head of the Brown family.
Since the future of her own prince was at stake, Princess Brown had to panic. The queen had passed away, and the emperor had deep feelings for her. The woman he married later was only a concubine and not a queen consort. This shows that the two women had very different statuses in the emperor's mind.
Princess Brown immediately went to ask for an audience with the emperor, but the emperor used the excuse of being busy with official business to refuse to see anyone. The princess was so angry that she returned to her residence and smashed things. She knew that in the eyes of the emperor, no matter what she did, she could never compare to that dead woman. Damn it.
"That position can only belong to my son. Since he is unkind, don't blame us for being unjust! Don't wait any longer, just do it!"
The Ren family acted faster than the Brown family. When they discovered that the emperor's attitude was wrong, they immediately sent the young generation of the Ren family out of the Imperial Star.
The main members of the Ren family gathered together, all with very grim expressions. Who could have thought that they would fall into the hands of a junior? Even if they thought this junior was very talented, they also felt that he still needed time to grow to the level of Wei Mingfeng. Even Wei Mingfeng would have to give in to them, not to mention that the Ren family was not going to give Chen Yuanjing the time to grow.
"We still haven't found out what that kid did in the past six months?"
"I'm sorry, Patriarch. We still can't find his whereabouts, but now we can speculate that maybe he has infiltrated the Black Spider Pirates under a different name, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to turn the Black Spider Pirates upside down."
"A passing goose leaves traces, how is it possible that we can't catch any tail? You are a bunch of trash, what use are you?" The head of the Ren family cursed angrily. What annoyed him even more was that slippery boy who fooled the whole family. Until now, they still didn't understand how he escaped their eyes and ears and sneaked in, unless he had supernatural powers.
In fact, they didn't know that Yuan Jing didn't have extraordinary abilities, but he had the skills accumulated from several worlds. He looked like a teenager, but inside he was a shrewd man who had lived through several worlds. He overturned the Black Spider Star Pirates gang in one fell swoop, catching everyone off guard.
"Father, what should we do now? It seems that His Majesty wants to investigate the whole matter. We still don't know how much evidence is in their hands." asked Boss Ren.
Old Man Ren said with a sullen face, "We have to prepare for both situations. On the one hand, we have to prepare for retreat. Although the time is much shorter, we have been preparing for so many years, so maybe another ten or twenty years won't be a big deal. On the other hand, we have to kill that guy. Second brother, even if he is your son, don't think I will let him go this time. He has caused the Ren family to suffer heavy losses this time, and we must get back at him!"
Ren Lao Er frowned and said, "Dad, I've already said I won't recognize him. That kid has a rebellious nature. It would be troublesome if I recognized him. He caused Xingnan and Xue'er to be scolded outside, and I haven't settled the score with him yet."
The implication is that he doesn't care whether his son Chen Yuanjing is dead or alive.
"Okay, this time we won't let him survive! The Ren family won't allow such a rebellion!" A fierce look flashed in old man Ren's eyes, and before leaving the Imperial Star, he wanted to give a big gift to His Majesty the Emperor and all the people of the Imperial Star.
The Ren family took immediate action. At this moment, Yuan Jing brought his men back and also brought the Fenglei mercenary team back. This time, He Chen was exposed to the eyes of the Ren family. He was not at ease leaving He Chen on the mercenary planet. Moreover, when He Chen came back, he could take over the industry left by the He family. Let's see who dares to stop them this time. With the He family's industry, they can support as many Fenglei mercenary teams as they want.
For the common people, they have no idea about the swordplay behind it. Those who like Chen Yuanjing can proudly tell others that Chen Yuanjing, who had been silent for a year and a half, lived up to their expectations and made another achievement, taking down the hard bone Black Spider Star Pirates who were impossible for anyone to chew. What a great achievement this is.
Yuan Jing returned to everyone's attention because of this battle, and his growth rate was beyond everyone's imagination. Some people used to compare him with Wei Mingshen, but now it seems that Yuan Jing's growth rate has exceeded that of Wei Mingfeng, and he may be able to climb to that position in a shorter time than Wei Mingfeng.
"The Black Spider's boss was also SS-level, right? But he was defeated by Chen Yuanjing after just a few moves. He was completely defeated without any chance to fight back. So, how strong is Chen Yuanjing now?"
"It must still be SS level. Although I expect that our empire will have someone with SSS level strength, even Admiral Wei, who has the greatest hope of breakthrough, is still at SS level. It is said that he almost had a mental riot before, but later he had the Qingxin Jue and the Ningshen potion, and the symptoms of mental riot were finally alleviated. But it is not so easy to break through."
"Maybe that guy had been tricked before, so it was easy for Chen Yuanjing and his men to attack him."
"I think Chen Yuanjing should have reached the peak of SS level now. He is still young and has just entered the 20th level this year. So the person who is most likely to become SSS level in the empire now is Chen Yuanjing. He has more potential than Wei Mingfeng."
"Hey, if you want to praise Chen Yuanjing, don't step on General Wei. Chen Yuanjing is our male god, and General Wei is also our male god."
"But you have to admit that Chen Yuanjing has a better chance of being promoted to SSS level than Admiral Wei. This is not a question of praise or stepping on others. It is the reality."
"Don't forget that General Wei has made the greatest contribution to Chen Yuanjing's success today. Without General Wei paving the way for Chen Yuanjing, would he have risen so quickly? Even in this fight against the Black Spider Pirates, without General Wei's support, could Chen Yuanjing have done it alone?"
"Damn it! Why do I feel like someone is deliberately trying to stir up a conflict between General Wei and Chen Yuanjing? They obviously have a good relationship, so why do they have to set them against each other?"
"That's right, I feel a wave of malice coming towards me."
He Chen followed his cousin back to the Emperor Star for the first time in all these years. He felt a little confused. It had been nearly twenty years since he dared to get close to the Emperor Star. The same was true for the Red Leaf Star. Once he entered, there would be no chance of getting out. But now he could step in openly.
He Chen's teammates felt similarly to him. It was only after the Black Spider was wiped out that they found out that the younger brother the captain always talked about was actually not his cousin but his cousin. This cousin was also Chen Yuanjing, a celebrity in the Interstellar Empire. Thinking back then, many of them had climbed onto the Star Network to secretly watch Chen Yuanjing's battle videos.
Who would have thought that he would have such a close relationship with their captain? No wonder the captain could always get those precious potions, because the person behind Chen Yuanjing was General Wei.
"Boss, I'm not used to coming to Emperor Star. I don't know where to put my hands. I feel like a country bumpkin."
"Don't cause trouble for the boss and Major Chen. By the way, boss, Major Chen, where are we going to live?"
Yuan Jing smiled and said, "I have someone buy a house for you. You can go and take a look now."
"Very good."
Yuan Jing was chatting and laughing with them when he suddenly felt a murderous intent coming towards him.
