Chapter 1355: Leave It to Me! Back to Blue Star!

「Hm? 」

Xu Jingming raised his sword-like eyebrows and instinctively looked up.

There, at the staircase on the second floor, Eva stood wearing a nearly transparent silver gauze nightgown.

Moonlight filtered through the thin fabric, outlining her perfect body curves.

Her slender waist, long legs, and full breasts that made it impossible to look away.

Her long green hair fell to her pert hips, her elfin ears trembling slightly with nervousness.

「Eva, what are you doing? 」 Xu Jingming was stunned.

Seeing Eva dressed like this, the plot seemed to be heading in a rather unusual direction.

「I already said it: once I return to my true form, I must repay you properly. 」

With a light tap of her pure white foot, Eva glided gracefully down from the second floor and arrived before Xu Jingming:

「Besides, after watching so many recordings, I've long wanted to try this myself. 」

「Don't worry—I've already made arrangements with Ye Lan and the others. Tonight, you belong only to me... 」

Eva was initially shy, but as she spoke, she grew bolder and bolder.

More crucially, Xu Jingming realized he couldn't move at all!

The entire space was filled with Eva's overwhelmingly powerful aura.

「Don't forget—I'm now a Star Peak cultivator. 」

Eva gazed at Xu Jingming with her emerald-green eyes.

She proudly lifted her now well-formed chest, then slowly knelt down:

「Now, leave it to me... 」

The universe is vast, and besides the human race, there are many other races.

Even within the human race, not everyone is identical.

There are countless races: elves, half-ogres, giants, fish-people, winged beings, and more.

Xu Jingming wasn't particularly familiar with other races, but regarding elves:

After this night, he found they weren't much different from ordinary humans.

Perhaps because water nurtures wood, this aspect was naturally more abundant.

And their ears were just more sensitive...

The planet-destroying cannons and war fortresses purchased from Shangcheng were strategic-level assets.

It would still take several days to transport them.

Fortunately, the Lord of Noah was very generous and assigned Xu Jingming an enormous escort fleet.

This fleet would transport the ten thousand engineers; once the planet-destroying cannons arrived, they'd all be shipped together to Blue Star.

Although slower than Xu Jingming's A1-class spaceship, it would still take only one month to arrive.

With this, Xu Jingming naturally felt at ease.

The afternoon after his entanglement with Eva, he boarded the 'Dark Lord' spaceship with the women and set course for Blue Star.

As for Zhou Yuanwu, he chose to depart with the escort fleet instead of joining Xu Jingming.

「Target planet confirmed as 'Blue Star'. 」

「Ship about to activate warp engine, initiating spatial jump. Estimated arrival: 18 days, 12 hours. 」

Inside the luxurious cabin of the Dark Lord, a mechanical electronic voice chimed.

Eva had returned to her true form; the ship's built-in AI was now in control.

The cabin screen corresponded to an interior space of immense size—several hundred square meters.

In addition, the cabin walls were crafted from special materials.

Their surface shimmered with a mercury-like luster, adjustable at will for transparency and color.

At present, they displayed a deep starry projection, as if immersed in boundless space.

At the cabin's center stood a large sofa.

Above was a curved dome embedded with countless micro-light sources.

They simulated the soft dawn light of Blue Star—gentle, not harsh.

The cabin's gravity had been adjusted to Blue Star standards, temperature maintained steadily at a pleasant 23 degrees.

And this was merely the control cabin; there were also several leisure cabins and even entertainment cabins.

The two infants, Xu Xinghe and Xu Xinglan, were being played with by Song Qiuyun and Jiang Chuxuan.

「Hmph, it's a bit strange not seeing Eva's hologram on the big screen anymore. 」

Xu Jingming leaned lazily on the sofa, feeling the familiar gravity, as if he'd returned to Blue Star.

「What? Not used to having my hologram around anymore? 」

Eva, sitting beside him, laughed softly.

Today she wore a light green dress; the thin fabric revealed her curves distinctly.

Even faint glimpses of snowy white skin were visible.

Since everyone aboard the spaceship was family, she dressed casually.

Not just Eva—Ye Lan and the other women dressed the same way.

「A little. 」

Xu Jingming smiled. 「Once we reach Star Dome Academy, it'll be even harder to adjust. 」

Indeed, Eva had accompanied him for far too long.

He'd even developed the habit of asking Eva first whenever he encountered any problem.

Although after reaching the stars, many things were even unclear to Eva.

"Really? Then shall I turn back into an intelligent lifeform?"

Eva blinked her eyes, then smirked slyly and straddled Xu Jingming's lap directly.

Xu Jingming felt a sudden weight on his thighs, the soft touch stirring his heart.

Though she had become the mature Eva, her inherently mischievous nature hadn't changed at all.

"No need for that—this is perfect as it is."

Xu Jingming smiled and wrapped his arms around Eva's slender waist.

Shhh—

The cabin door slid open suddenly, and Ye Lan stepped in with her round, long legs.

Seeing their posture, she blinked in surprise: "Looks like I came at a bad time?"

"No, you came at the perfect time!"

Eva beamed, leaving Xu Jingming momentarily stunned.

Isn't that my line?

While he was dazed, Eva had already risen and grabbed Ye Lan's hand, giggling:

"Perfect timing—go call Aemis, Yuli, and the others."

Last night, only I was here; I couldn't explore many concepts."

Leng Yuexi and the others were already pregnant, so Eva didn't call them.

Of course, such blunt words still made Ye Lan blush deeply.

Just as Ye Lan hesitated whether to go call Lu Yunji and the others.

Xu Jingming suddenly received a mail notification from the Virtual Universe.

"Huh? A mail?"

Xu Jingming tapped his smart bracer, and instantly a holographic projection appeared before him:

"Dear Student Xu Jingming, Star穹 Academy will hold a new student enrollment ceremony in the Virtual Universe one hour from now.

This ceremony will introduce key information regarding Star穹 Academy; absence is not recommended unless under special circumstances.

Star穹 Academy looks forward to your arrival."

"New student enrollment ceremony?" Xu Jingming raised his sword-like brows.

Thinking it over, it made sense.

The ship that came to pick them up would take over two months to arrive.

And after arrival, another two months would pass before reaching the Eternal Star Alliance headquarters.

Round trip is over four months—since the Virtual Universe exists, it's natural to enroll early and get familiar.

"I'll be going to the enrollment ceremony soon; looks like I won't have time to practice knowledge with you."

Xu Jingming said to Eva after reading the mail.

"Not necessarily—we still have an hour."

Eva straddled Xu Jingming's lap again, smirking slyly.

Meanwhile, Ye Lan had wisely gone to call...
