Chapter 1231: Palace Summons

"What more proof do you need? It’s obvious they did it!" Shreyan retorted indignantly.

Tejas Trikant said, "Then go settle the score with them. But don’t say we didn’t warn you—Erythar Star System isn’t easy to deal with anymore. They have extremely powerful cultivators. Jaime barely survived an encounter with them and had no power to resist."

"One person can’t make that much of a difference. We have strength in numbers. What is there to fear?" Shreyan argued.

Himadri shook his head. "Young and reckless. Only fools charge headfirst into their deaths. When facing someone stronger, you need to use your brain."

"Himadri, whose side are you on?" Shreyan snapped, annoyed. "I’m not an idiot—I just don’t want to waste time scheming against the Erythar Star System."

"Enough. If the Erythar Star System really did this, and they managed to kill someone from such a distance, their strength cannot be underestimated." The man in black uniforms finally intervened, stopping the argument.

He stared thoughtfully at the corpse on the ground. "For a mere Erythar Star System to produce such a strong people... I wonder how they compare to them."

"Boss, you mean those people?" Tejas caught on.

"Yes. The eight major star systems are set to enter the royal palace tomorrow, correct?" the man in black asked.

"Yes. Given the royal family’s nature, the Erythar Star System will surely face some difficulties," Tejas replied.

"Perfect. That will be the best time to gauge the strength of this so-called powerful figure from the Erythar Star System."

The man in black spoke with a hint of anticipation.

In the end, would it be the royal family that suffered a loss, or would the Erythar Star System be suppressed?

If the strong one from the Erythar Star System could not withstand it, then things would become interesting.

This game might not even grant them a voice.

"Take care of the body."

"And the report?"

"Just report it truthfully."

Kenny Lin had not been out for long.

An hour later, he returned.

Amalia heard a strange noise from outside the window, and before she could react, someone had already climbed in.

She raised an eyebrow.

"Are you addicted to climbing through windows?"

"A midnight tryst with my lover, of course, I have to climb the window. Wouldn’t want to be caught in the act. My little sweetheart, I’m here."

Kenny Lin’s face was full of lewd intent as he pounced on her.

Amalia was caught off guard and was pushed back onto the sofa behind her.

The two of them tumbled into it together.

Taking advantage of the moment, Kenny Lin kissed her hungrily to quench his thirst.

Before long, Amalia realized her clothes had been pulled up.

His movements were eager yet not rough.

"Are you still going to talk about serious matters?" Amalia asked, slightly breathless.

"Of course. Isn’t this exactly what I’m ’discussing’ with you? If I don’t ’talk’ about serious matters first, I won’t have the energy for anything else."

His voice came from where his head was buried against her chest.

The night quietly concealed itself behind the treetops, as if too shy to witness the spring night unfolding in the room.

The sun set and rose again.

Another cycle of day and night had passed.

Time only moved forward, never backward.

Amalia was awakened by the blinding sunlight.

Seeing the glaring sun outside, she realized it was already late morning.

She pulled the curtains shut and then pushed Kenny Lin, who had been pressing down on her all night, off her.

With a thud, Kenny Lin rolled off the bed and instantly woke up.

A pair of beautiful, narrow eyes peeked up at her from under the bed, looking innocent.

How had she managed to get dressed so quickly?

He was just a few seconds slower.

"Today, Minister Sharif and the others are going to the palace to meet The Crimson Snake Sovereign. If you keep dawdling, you might as well not go."

Amalia freshened up, her body instantly feeling refreshed.

In reality, there was no need to clean up.

Last night, they had even engaged in dual cultivation, and all their energy had been absorbed.

Kenny Lin sprawled out on the bed in a star shape, not caring in the slightest that he wasn’t wearing anything.

Amalia glanced at the thing between his legs, which was about to stand up again.

She then grabbed the clothes on the floor and tossing them at him.

The fabric landed perfectly over it.

"If you’re not going, I’ll go myself."

Kenny Lin finally got up slowly and started dressing. "Even if I’m going, this is way too early. Do they really think they’re attending a morning court session?"

"Establishing authority is necessary."

Amalia didn’t mind.

Whatever came her way, she would deal with it.

Besides, after yesterday’s lesson, those people should know better than to go too far.

"By the way, what did you find out while you were out?"

"Didn’t investigate much, but I did kill a scumbag and read his memories."

Kenny Lin, who had a strong memory, had learned their language after reading the man’s thoughts.

Now he understood what the guy had said earlier—he had actually cursed him.

Calling him an idiot?

In the end, he didn’t even leave a corpse behind.

After saying that, Kenny Lin transmitted the Pleiades Star System’s language to Amalia.

The language barrier between different star systems had actually disappeared a long time ago.

As long as a specific type of nanotechnology was implanted in the brain, people could directly understand other star systems’ languages without needing to learn them manually.

Sharif and General Rafiq had all undergone this procedure.

Not only could they understand their native universe’s languages, but they could also comprehend those of aliens language.

Amalia knew he could handle it, so she didn’t press further about the killing.

After the two of them went downstairs, Minister Sharif and the others were already prepared.

When the time came, the military forces of the Pleiades Imperial Palace arrived to escort them to the palace banquet.
