CHAPTER 92: CHAPTER 33: FLOURISHING ERA OF THE EMPIRE (PART 2) - 2

They are soldiers, wearing military uniforms! Sworn never to yield!

Du Xixi clenched Ke Lian’s hand tightly. From that slightly trembling hand, she felt that Ke Lian was equally shaken inside at this moment. Moreover, he was happier and more shocked than she was!

Ke Lian was a member of the military; he came from the military, heading towards the military. In the orderly formation of soldiers below, he felt a resonance from deep inside his heart and blood!

Chen Yin had retreated to Ke Lian and Du Xixi’s side. He slightly turned his head and asked Du Xixi, "Such a flourishing era, Xixi, you probably like it very much, don’t you?"

Du Xixi smiled and nodded as a form of acknowledgment. She believed that no one would be unwilling to witness such a prosperous era in person!

Perhaps because she grew up in the Imperial Chef Family, Du Xixi’s knowledge system that she was instilled with from childhood was full of the history and fate of her ancestors—the turbulent dynasties and the hardships her forebears suffered from displacement—none of which failed to sadden her.

"If Blue Star still existed..." Du Xixi suddenly spoke such a sentence softly, only Ke Lian and Chen Yin heard it.

"If it still existed, it would surely already be a flourishing era!" Chen Yin responded without hesitation, his tone firm, yet ultimately tinged with regret.

Ke Lian remained silent all along, and his silence dragged Du Xixi and Chen Yin into silence as well.

Indeed, if Blue Star still existed, but Blue Star no longer exists...

There are never any "ifs" in this world.

Blue Star is already a small planet from an Ancient Times within interstellar history. Even if its residents migrated elsewhere, establishing the current vast and mighty Empire, it is already history.

Sometimes, Du Xixi wonders if in some parallel world, Blue Star might still be well-off. Might it be filled with delicious food everywhere? Could it be a famous gourmet planet within interstellar realms?

But perhaps parallel worlds don’t exist; everything is just her idle fantasies.

It is true Du Xixi came from Blue Star, and the original host went to Blue Star, yet Du Xixi came from Blue Star a million years ago, and the original host also went to Blue Star a million years ago.

Even though everything just happened less than two months ago, Blue Star truly is already something from ten thousand years ago. Du Xixi’s "if" at this moment is merely an unrealistic fantasy.

It’s over...

This silence continued until the end of the National Day ceremony. Chen Yin announced the end on the spot and left with the pensive Du Xixi and Ke Lian, departing from the eyes of the crowd.

Fortunately, the live broadcast was cut off at the moment it ended, and the officials weren’t the type to gossip, or else if this spread out, it might be thought of as a major incident.

Du Xixi and Ke Lian followed Chen Yin to his sleeping quarters. Du Xixi was still saddened by the reality that Blue Star had become history and couldn’t return, Ke Lian was worried about Du Xixi, and Chen Yin was concerned for Du Xixi but also had other worries on his mind.

Chen Yin’s sleeping quarters were very secluded, with hardly anyone coming and going, even the Rob was absent at this moment. Du Xixi and Ke Lian knew that Chen Yin might be about to tell them something very important.

Important enough that even Rob shouldn’t know.

As expected, after closing the hall doors, Chen Yin did not bother with any preamble and directly spoke on the topic: "I initially planned to hide it from you for some more days, but since Xixi misses Blue Star so much, I must tell you now. Actually..."

Chen Yin gritted his teeth, his heart already determined. Although this matter is truly significant and somewhat... incredible, as long as it can comfort Du Xixi even a little, then saying it is worth it.

Chen Yin: I have always been a good brother who loves his sister!

"Actually, Blue Star is very likely to have become a Primitive Planet, and it’s right in my hands!" Chen Yin said with a somber face, lowering his voice, even in a place he fully trusted, he instinctively maintained vigilance.

"How is that possible!" The one who lost composure and spoke out this time wasn’t Du Xixi, but Ke Lian beside her.

He was also aware of Du Xixi’s matter, naturally understanding that Blue Star was something long obliterated in the interstellar river. Chen Yin suddenly saying it still exists today, how could it not make Ke Lian lose his composure?

"At first, I was as astonished as you are." Chen Yin smiled indifferently, then reached out to pat the head of the shock-stricken Du Xixi while casually messing up her hairstyle.

If it were before, Du Xixi would probably have jumped up to have a good tussle with Chen Yin, but now, her mind was entirely occupied with Blue Star, and things like hairstyle no longer concerned her.
