Chapter 1678: Evil Demon Race Fortress! Lin Qianxue's Black Stockings!

"You only know how to bully me!"

Lin Qianxue shot Xu Jingming a coquettish glare.

But she didn't refuse; she gathered her clothes and turned toward the bedroom.

Xu Jingming watched her retreating back.

Especially the perfect curves and long, straight legs outlined by her battle suit, his heart warmed slightly.

Still, he quickly gathered his thoughts—there was serious business to attend to now.

"Vera, come out for a moment," he called.

Vera's soul form appeared once more.

This time her hands were still smudged with a bit of black soil, looking rather adorably dim:

"Master, I'm planting flowers right now! What is it now?"

"The flowers can wait—help me look up some intel first."

Xu Jingming instructed: "Search nearby star domains, detailed information on all alien planetary fortresses.

Including garrison strength, lord information, and defense level."

"Oh, that? Give me a moment."

Vera caught on, patted her little hands, and shook off the dirt.

Then she opened a holographic projection, her little hands working quickly as countless points of light and streams of information began to flicker.

A moment later,

seven or eight eye-catching red dots lit up on the star map, scattered across the surrounding star domains of several hundred light-years.

"Within 200 light-years nearby, there are a total of seven alien planetary fortresses—belonging to the Demon Race, Evil Demon Race, and Mechanical Race.

The one I most recommend you go to is the Black Fire Fortress, among the three Evil Demon Race fortresses."

"Oh? Why?" Xu Jingming asked, puzzled.

"First, the Black Fire Fortress isn't far from here—only 64 light-years.

Second, the Black Fire Fortress's lord is only at the seventh stage of Immortality, and the entire fortress has only 21 Immortal-stage Evil Demons in total.

And finally, it's the Evil Demon Race—most advantageous for you."

Vera explained, swaying her head as she spoke.

"Why is the Evil Demon Race most advantageous for me?" Xu Jingming hadn't figured it out.

Apart from that point, he could understand the first two.

"Because you have the Evil Demon Race's bloodline secret art."

Vera looked at Xu Jingming as if he were an idiot:

"Once you activate the bloodline secret art, you can perfectly disguise yourself as an Immortal-stage Evil Demon and sneak in.

Then assassinate the lord.

Wouldn't that be far simpler than you stupidly charging head-on against the entire fortress garrison outside?"

Hearing this, Xu Jingming stroked his chin.

What Vera said did make sense.

The second ring of the Starfire Plan mission was to kill an alien planetary fortress lord within five years.

To launch a forceful assault on a fortress that had been operated for years and was heavily guarded.

Even though his strength had greatly increased, the risk was extremely high, and he could easily be surrounded.

If he could infiltrate the interior, approach the lord, and deliver a thunderous strike.

The success rate would undoubtedly be much higher, and safer too.

"Pull up the detailed intel on this Black Fire Fortress for me to see."

Xu Jingming finally made his decision.

"Got it!"

Vera replied cheerfully, beginning to retrieve the detailed information.

Just then, the bedroom door opened softly.

"Jingming, I'm ready."

Lin Qianxue's voice rang out, tinged with a hint of bashfulness.

Xu Jingming instinctively turned his head at the sound.

He saw that Lin Qianxue had already restored her original appearance.

And changed into a dark gray body-hugging pencil skirt.

The short skirt clung tightly to her rounded hips, every curve outlining astonishing elasticity.

The skirt was just the right length—short enough to fully reveal her straight, slender legs without reservation.

The black silk stockings were as fine as ink, clinging tightly to her legs, stretching out rounded, full lines.

She turned slightly to the side, and the pencil skirt tightened along with the movement.

Her waist was so slim it seemed it could be grasped in one hand, while her long legs wrapped in black silk became all the more breathtaking.

Lin Qianxue's cheeks were slightly flushed, her pale golden eyes shimmering with watery light.

She cast a shy glance at Xu Jingming and asked softly:

"Do I... look good?"

Xu Jingming's eyes lit up, and he temporarily tossed the Evil Demon Race fortress intel to the back of his mind.

He strode over and swept her into his arms:

"More than good—especially those legs of yours......"

Xu Jingming leaned close to her ear and made a small request.

"You want me to use my feet to give you...?!"

Lin Qianxue's pretty face flushed crimson.

What kind of strange kink does this little junior brother have? It's getting weirder and weirder.

"This is the correct way to use stockings."

Xu Jingming gave a sly chuckle.

"Tsk tsk, looks like I'm going to get censored again."

Seeing this, Vera had already prepared herself to be pulled back into the Sea of Consciousness.

However, Xu Jingming called out to her:

"Don't rush, this time you be the photographer."

After Yvette left, his treasured collection hadn't been updated in a long time.

Originally he hadn't planned to continue.

But after returning to the Academy last time, Yue Ying had proactively raised this request.

Saying she wanted to share it with Hearing Ling Shuang and the others after returning to Blue Star.

Although he didn't know why she had such a kink.

Xu Jingming still satisfied her request.

Unfortunately, his own photography skills were poor; he couldn't achieve the kind of impact Yvette had.

This time was perfect to let Vera try.

She's a succubus after all — she shouldn't be bad at it, right?

"Me? A photographer?"

The succubus loli Vera was stunned for a moment, and once she reacted, she immediately grew excited:

"Okay! Mission guaranteed!"

Five hours later.

Several pairs of stockings, stained with filth, some black some white, were carelessly tossed on the floor by the bed.

Crumpled into a ball, they gleamed with an ambiguous sheen under the soft indoor lighting.

Lin Qianxue lay limp in the center of the disheveled big bed.

Her pale-golden eyes stared blankly at the ceiling, the tips still bearing an unfaded blush.

Her whole body was so sore and weak she couldn't lift even a single finger, especially those little feet.

"Little junior brother... you really are......" She didn't even have the strength to complain.

Her voice was hoarse and soft, carrying the satisfied, cooing petulance of the aftermath.

Xu Jingming, meanwhile, stood beside the bed refreshed and clear-headed.

Already changed into a clean, sharp black combat suit.

Lei Guang faintly circulated around his body, his aura round and full.

He bent down, gently kissed Lin Qianxue's fair forehead, and laughed softly:

"Rest well, wait for me to come back."

"Mm......" Lin Qianxue answered vaguely.

The Yin Pole Star bloomed overhead, restoring her exhausted divine body.

"How is it? Not bad, right?"

The succubus loli Vera's soul-body floated in midair.

Little hands on her hips, she proudly showed off the holographic image hovering before her.

In the picture, Lin Qianxue's hazy gaze, slightly parted red lips, taut long legs in black stockings.

Even her suppressed gasps and unrestrained moans were clearly recorded — the angles were tricky, the impact overwhelming.

The video had even been thoughtfully named: 'Lin Qianxue, Black Stockings Special'.

"Not bad, Ying'er should like it."

Xu Jingming quickly browsed through it and nodded in satisfaction.

He casually added it to his treasured collection list.

"Of course! I'm a succubus after all!

Even though I'm in soul-body form now, my aesthetics and technique are still on point, alright!"

Vera said smugly.

In her heart, however, she was somewhat wistful.

No wonder compared to before, Lin Qianxue seemed like a completely different person.

If it were her being treated like that by Xu Jingming, she probably would also......

"Yes yes yes, you're the best, I'll be counting on you for this from now on."

Xu Jingming chuckled lightly.

Another few hours passed, after Lin Qianxue had fully recovered.

Only then did he set out, leaving Planet Fortress No. 47.

Boarding the Star Scar spacehip, he flew toward the Black Flame Fortress.

This time he was infiltrating the Demon Race, so he didn't bring Lin Qianxue — he only took the Chaos Pearl with him.
