Chapter 1154: Leaving Blue Star! Destination: The Sea of Stars!

The night was ink-black, with scattered stars adorning the night sky above Xia Meng.

Inside the master bedroom of a luxurious villa, a lingering air of intimacy had yet to fade.

On the wide, pristine white bed, Xu Jingming sat propped against the headboard, his strong, powerful arms wrapped around Aimosi and Ling Shuang.

The women lay or leaned in various poses, their fair skin still flushed with a lingering blush, a faint scent drifting through the air.

"Jingming, why were you so... today..."

Su Qingli's cheeks were crimson, her voice as faint as a mosquito's buzz, clearly still not recovered from the frenzy just moments ago.

"Outfit bonus."

Xu Jingming's lips curved slightly. His gaze swept over them as he said softly:

"There's something I need to tell you all."

His tone grew serious, and the women all involuntarily looked up at him.

"In one month, I'm preparing to leave Blue Star and head for the universe.

This is my first time going to the universe, so I'm preparing to go alone."

This was something Xu Jingming had long since decided.

Among the women, only Aimosi was at Starlight Tier 2.

Apart from her, the rest were only at Tier 9, with no strength whatsoever to venture into the universe.

But even Aimosi's combat power couldn't be called formidable, so he didn't plan to bring her along.

Once he'd scouted the way through the starry sky first, it wouldn't be too late to bring them over later.

"One month?"

Ling Shuang sat bolt upright, her long black hair cascading down like a waterfall, her beautiful eyes filled with shock.

"So soon?"

Aimosi also widened her pale golden eyes, her red lips parting slightly.

The atmosphere on the bed instantly grew subdued. Xu Jingming could clearly feel the reluctant gazes the women fixed upon him.

"Although the Molten Fire Beast is imprisoned, its true body, the Molten Core Blood Dragon, still slumbers on the moon.

As long as the Molten Core Blood Dragon remains unresolved, I cannot rest easy."

Xu Jingming explained, "I need to enter the universe as soon as possible, raise my strength or find someone to help, so I can thoroughly eliminate this hidden threat.

Don't worry—barring any accidents, I will definitely return within two or three years."

According to Yiwa, with his talent, once he entered the Noah Empire, he should receive great attention.

At that time, arranging for a cosmic-level powerhouse to follow him back to Blue Star and deal with the Molten Core Blood Dragon should be a very simple matter.

"Molten Core Blood Dragon..."

All the women fell silent together.

This truly was a sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of everyone on Blue Star.

After a moment of silence, a glint of understanding flashed through Aimosi's pale golden eyes: "So, you plan to go to Qinglan Star first?"

"Mm."

Xu Jingming nodded. "Yiwa said once we get there, we can contact the Noah Empire."

"But..."

Ling Shuang suddenly flipped over, her entire body draping itself across Xu Jingming.

Her long, slender legs clamped tightly around a certain spot, her jade-like arms looping around his neck. "We only just dealt with the Molten Fire Beast—can't you rest a while longer?"

Her voice carried a rare, coquettish note, and the tear mole at the corner of her eye looked especially captivating under the lamplight.

Xu Jingming was rendered speechless with a helpless laugh.

This coldly beautiful vice-principal, acting like a little girl throwing a tantrum, softened his heart.

"One month is too short."

Su Qingli also leaned over, her lively eyes brimming with reluctance. "We only just got married..."

The Cold Moon Tide sisters said nothing, but the longing in their four beautiful eyes was just as evident.

Xu Jingming looked around, met seven pairs of expectant eyes, and finally conceded defeat: "Alright then... three months from now."

"Really?"

Ling Shuang's eyes lit up.

"Of course it's real." Xu Jingming nodded with a smile.

Sailing through the starry sky takes about half a year anyway; staying on Blue Star an extra three months didn't matter much.

"That's wonderful!"

The women immediately beamed with joy, their earlier worries swept away in an instant. Ling Shuang, her pretty face slightly flushed, said:

"Then next, let me attend to you."

Saying so, she slowly slid downward.

Under Xu Jingming's astonished gaze, she burrowed beneath the covers.

The bedroom, which had only just settled down, soon grew intimate once more...

Three months passed in the blink of an eye.

During this time, Xu Jingming had practically traversed every corner of Blue Star.

The Atlantic, the Indian Ocean, the Arctic Ocean... the regions of the great beasts had all been cleared out by him.

His Starlight Tier 2 strength, combined with the third layer of the Destruction Domain, made him invincible on Blue Star.

Of course,

Saying he was clearing beasts was actually just a honeymoon.

He spent only one or two hours each day hunting ferocious beasts.

The rest of the time, he took Emers and the seven women to experience foreign customs and scenery.

Meanwhile, the Great Xia Empire's development had entered a fast lane.

With Xu Jingming's support, the Void Divine Temple established a teleportation network across all continents, tightly connecting the entire Blue Star.

The beast tide had become a thing of the past; people no longer feared cities being breached by ferocious beasts.

June 3rd, 9:00 a. m.

Central District of Xia Meng, backyard of a villa.

A silver-white, streamlined spaceship, dozens of meters long and over ten meters tall, rested quietly there.

This was the day Xu Jingming would leave the Blue Star.

He had not informed many people; only Zhou Yuanwu, Evelyn and her daughter, and Emers and others came to see him off.

His father-in-law Su Tianrui had already entered deep seclusion underground before the Magma Colossus invaded, attempting to break through to the Strongest realm, and had not yet emerged, so he had not been forcibly notified.

As for his aunt Xu Qingwan, to avoid worrying her, he merely said he would enter seclusion for several years, without revealing he was leaving the Blue Star.

"Jingming, take good care of yourself."

Zhou Yuanwu solemnly clapped Xu Jingming on the shoulder.

This former Grand Councilor of Great Xia understood why Xu Jingming was leaving the Blue Star so soon.

He sought to secure a future for the Blue Star!

Unfortunately, his injuries had not fully healed; joining him would only be a burden, or else he would have left with him.

"Don't worry, Eva is an interstellar adventurer—she won't let anything happen to him," Xu Jingming said lightly.

On the other side,

Emers, Su Qingli, Hearing Ling Shuang, and the other seven wives stood together.

Today, they all wore dresses Xu Jingming loved most, beautiful enough to steal one's breath.

"Jingming, remember to think of us."

Emers stepped forward and gently embraced Xu Jingming.

"Don't forget we're still here on the Blue Star—return as soon as you can."

Song Qiuyun gently stroked her abdomen, her beautiful eyes filled with boundless tenderness.

"I will."

Xu Jingming nodded solemnly, looking at Song Qiuyun and Jiang Chuxuan, and warned:

"But you two must be more careful."

During the three-month honeymoon trip, he had not destroyed his genetic material as he had before.

The stronger an adept, the harder it is to produce offspring—that was precisely why.

Among the seven wives, only Song Qiuyun and Jiang Chuxuan, both at the fifth-rank, had become pregnant first.

"Don't worry, with Auntie looking after us, nothing will happen."

Jiang Chuxuan covered her mouth and laughed softly.

Two months ago, upon learning she and Song Qiuyun were pregnant, Aunt Xu Qingwan had laughed uncontrollably.

She had immediately moved from the Magic Capital to Xia Meng, saying she would come to care for them personally.

"That's true."

Thinking of his aunt's enthusiasm, Xu Jingming couldn't help but nod slightly, then said:

"Then Emers, Brother Zhou, Evelyn—I leave the Blue Star in your hands."

"No problem."

"Master, rest assured—I will protect the ladies with all my heart."

Emers, Zhou Yuanwu, and Evelyn spoke in turn.

Xu Jingming nodded slightly.

Originally, he had intended to let the several Starlight Rank One Strongest retain their self-awareness.

But since he was about to leave the Blue Star, he still felt uneasy, so he used the Slave Heart Seal to enslave them.

Thus, all Strongest on the Blue Star were under his control, and with Emers, Zhou Yuanwu, and Evelyn—the three Starlight Rank Two—present, problems were unlikely to arise.

"Wait for me to return."

Xu Jingming embraced each wife in turn, leaving a light kiss on their foreheads.

Then, amid their reluctant gazes, he boarded the spaceship.

"Liftoff! Liftoff! Destination! The Starry Sea!"

On the ship's large screen appeared the excited face of the little girl Eva.

The spaceship accelerated, soon breaking through the atmosphere...

PS: Xiao Ming leaves the Blue Star, heading for the stars.

The Demon Race, Mechanical Clan, Demon Clan, Human prodigies... a larger world is about to unfold—guaranteed to be thrilling.
