But what happened next left Yu Shiwei even more breathless.
The coup she had anticipated in the Star Empire, and the tense situation with the Dragon Martial Empire and the Longevity Empire, did not materialize.
Not only did she not appear, the Empress of the Star Empire even publicly acknowledged Jin Shangyue's identity on the World Star Network.
Empress Di Jinhuang (SJXW) [Let me formally introduce you to my daughter, Jin Shangyue (@锦上月SJXW).]
Following the appearance of the Star Empire's Empress, the Star Empire's royal family also released a public announcement on the World Star Network social platform.
Star Empire Royal Family SJXW: [The entire Star Empire Royal Family warmly welcomes the return of Her Highness the Eldest Princess @锦上月SJXW.]
The whole world was in an uproar over these two announcements!
However, before the world could react, accounts belonging to members of the Star Empire's royal family, high-ranking officials, and ministers sprang up one after another on the World Star Network, directly flooding the screen and shocking the entire world.
Duke SJXW of the Star Empire: [Welcome back, niece! Come back soon, your uncle has prepared many gifts for you @锦上月SJXW.]
Duke Delan of the Star Empire, SJXW: [Welcome back, niece! Uncle has many gifts waiting for you @锦上月SJXW.]
Star Empire Cabinet Minister SJXW: [Welcome back, Princess @锦上月SJXW.]
XXXXX: [Welcome back, Princess! @锦上月SJXW.]
[...]
It was as if, in an instant, the whole world was welcoming the return of the princess.
Facing the world, the entire nation, and all its people, let us welcome the glorious moon together.
This unparalleled honor, unique in the world, will be recorded in history and remembered for eternity.
Di Jinhuang kept her promise to Jin Shangyue.
In a grand and honorable manner, we will welcome Jinshangyue back to the Star Empire.
Over the course of nearly a year, Di Jinhuang resolved and arranged everything, paving a smooth, unobstructed, and unquestionable road for Jin Shangyue.
She was given the highest honor.
The eldest princess of the Star Empire, the legitimate eldest daughter, possesses absolute right of succession.
This identity already foreshadowed Di Jinhuang's plans.
She also used this identity to tell the world that Jin Shangyue was the successor chosen by Di Jinhuang.
No one can slander or question.
[Holy crap! What kind of chosen goddess is this! Empress of the Eternal Life Empire, future Empress of the Dragon Martial Empire, heir to the Star Empire—with just these three identities, Jin Shangyue alone controls three-tenths of the world. It's terrifying to think about...]
[The Moon Emperor is mighty! We eagerly await the day he unifies the world!]
So what's the current situation? Are three of the five great empires (Dragon Martial Empire, Longevity Empire, and Star Empire) going to merge into one? I just want to ask, are the Sky-Supporting Empire and the Holy Yuan Empire worried?
[...]
Various heated discussions and sensitive debates have been taking place, creating a lively and prolonged buzz. This level of interest has remained high for over two months without any sign of abating.
The protagonist who has been the subject of much discussion, Jin Shangyue, secretly activated the world's protective array that had been set up over two years, without the knowledge of the world.
All the arrays buried around the world were activated when Jinshangyue opened the grand array, emitting an almost imperceptible halo that moved so fast it was difficult to catch.
The next second, countless array forces rose from the ground, converged in the air, and soared into the sky.
From an angle unseen by the world, the entire outer surface of Shenyuan Star is shrouded in countless halos.
Strands and strands quickly intertwined and converged into a huge and bizarre formation.
Those observers in the higher planes of the vast world suddenly realized something and were all greatly alarmed.
One consciousness after another rushed toward that one that was scattered throughout the myriad worlds, drifting in an inconspicuous corner of the plane.
pity.
It was still too late.
When these consciousnesses arrived, the small, solitary world there had already vanished.
Despite all the efforts of the observers, they still could not find any trace of that dimensional star...
The observers seemed to have realized something and quickly contacted their plunder ships scattered across the Divine Abyss Star plane.
But they found that all contact had been lost and there was no response.
There wasn't even a trace of it.
Even if they try to crawl along the 'network cable' first, it won't work.
This completely shattered the plundering plans that these observers from other dimensions had been plotting for years.
Meanwhile, the global protective shield was successfully activated.
When the entire world was shrouded in a protective isolation array, completely cutting off outside observation, all alien species on Shenyuan Star vanished.
【Ahhh... The system has been hacked... Alert...】
Some only managed to emit one alarm sound before disappearing.
Some were annihilated by a terrifying divine power before they could even utter a sound.
The selected seeds were instantly thrown into chaos.
Ning Wan: "Imperial power? Imperial power? Did you hear me? Answer me now! Imperial power!..."
Arland Huayan: "898? What's wrong with you? Why aren't you saying anything? 898, don't tease me! Say something!"
Sang Tiantian: "Xiao Jin, what's wrong? Who attacked you? Xiao Jin..."
Zhong Yanfei: "System! What happened! Why did my appearance revert to its original state? And all my points and purchased items are gone?"
"System? Speak up! Stop playing dead! Come out now! Did you steal my things...?"
Yu Shiwei was furious and felt suffocated by what was happening online, so she shut down all online communications and prepared to lay low for a while.
