"My son, my son."
After saying all the good and bad things, in the end, it still comes down to taking action.
Seven days later, the riots ceased.
The main streets of each planet are deserted, with paper fluttering in the wind, creating a desolate scene.
The riots were suppressed, and the calm lake returned to its former tranquility. But whether this is the calm before the storm or the silence of a bird with broken wings remains to be seen.
Long Aotian suppressed the Star River Empire's people's struggle for survival by force and immediately began preparing to attack Sacramento. Last time, he was careless and fell into Elizabeth's trap, suffering a defeat and having to deal with the Dark Emperor with a heavy heart.
"How is it?" Long Aotian asked.
"Your Majesty, everything is ready, we just need your word." General Liu looked decades older, his white temples withered like weeds, and his once sharp eyes gradually became cloudy and yellowish.
The capable are often burdened with more work, and General Liu could hardly bear it.
“Then…” Long Aotian looked up at the blue sky, which was clear and boundless. He reached out and grabbed at the air, then smiled smugly, “We’ll set off in three days.”
"Three days?" General Liu murmured.
Three days? Isn't that too rushed? Millions of people are no small number.
“No?” Long Aotian turned around and stared coldly at General Liu.
"Okay." It has to be done, even if it seems impossible!
General Liu was sweating profusely, not daring to offend Long Aotian in the slightest. Since the riot, Long Aotian had become increasingly absurd, punishing and killing at will. He would shirk his duties in court if he could, and if he couldn't, the matters would be left on his desk for him to look at whenever he wanted.
Three days later, countless starships and airships set sail, converging on Sacramento from all corners of the universe. Long Aotian took the lead, his magnificent spaceship tearing through space, entering a wormhole, and with a whoosh, disappearing from the spot.
"This time, I will take over Sacramento," Long Aotian said confidently.
With his million-strong army advancing rapidly and the Dark Lord providing strong support, even the lone Sarkridon could still stir up trouble.
...
Dark Starfield, Dark Star.
"You all go quickly, I'll hold them off."
A blood-soaked alien gave them a shove, and Jin Xin and John narrowly dodged the bullets.
Gunshots rang out incessantly, threatening to shatter the heavens.
The streets were bustling with people, but Dark Star was on edge, seeing danger everywhere.
"Jin Xin, John, you take Tu Yao back to Sacryton first. I'll hold them off." Liao Kongmin casually wiped away the blood that almost dripped into his eyes.
"No." Jin Xin firmly refused Liao Kongmin's offer.
"Kongmin, we've put you in this predicament. At this critical moment, we abandoned you. Are we even human?" We should share happiness and hardship, and companions who have gone through life and death together should not abandon each other when disaster strikes.
John nodded in agreement.
Men are creatures who value loyalty.
Liao Kongmin was frustrated and disappointed, and gritted his teeth.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. This little thing won't kill me."
Like a cunning rabbit with three burrows, Liao Kongmin had long prepared his means of survival.
Jin Xin and John exchanged a glance, hesitant and unable to make a decision.
"Hurry, he needs treatment." He was Tu Yao.
Tu Yao was captured and fell into the hands of the brutal Dark Star people. What good could come of this? His body was badly injured, but his spirit was on the verge of collapse. Healing a person's body isn't particularly difficult, but it's not easy either. However, when the mind is afflicted, recovery is by no means a simple matter.
Jin Xin turned his head and glanced at Tu Yao on his back. "Okay, we're leaving now."
“Jin Xin,” John said, somewhat disagreeing.
Tu Yao was their brother, but Liao Kongmin was no stranger either.
"John, you can rest assured. Who am I, Liao Kongmin? How could I possibly fall into the hands of those petty villains?" Liao Kongmin said confidently.
John didn't want to drag things out and harm everyone.
"Okay, let's go."
Liao Kongmin and Jin Xin explained in detail where to go, where the spaceship was, and which route the spaceship should take.
"Thank you." Jin Xin and John were genuinely grateful to Liao Kongmin for his help.
"You're welcome. I'm doing this for Elizabeth too." It's for Ji Xiaoxiao.
Liao Kongmin turned to leave, but suddenly remembered something. "Oh right, I received news that the Dark Emperor has led his army away from Dark Star."
"The Dark Emperor has left Dark Star?" John sensed something was wrong.
“Yes, actually we should thank the Dark Emperor. If he hadn’t happened to leave and taken 60% of the Dark Star people with him, leaving Dark Star vulnerable and short-staffed, we wouldn’t have been able to rescue Tu Yao. We would have been on the run for many days without being found and captured,” Liao Kongmin said.
John forced a smile, eager to get back to Sacramento.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Why do I feel so uneasy?"
---Aside---
No one was willing to do the investigation, so Xiaoming asked directly, "I'm starting a new story, are there any readers willing to follow it?"
