Chapter 211: Besides the Empire, I Still Have Another Force

~8 min read 1,417 words

Tens of thousands of troops were deployed across the wide battlefield.

Artillery, lasers, and molten fire surged from the positions like rain, flooding the sky.

Then, before that golden thunder‑sun, they turned into a continuous expanse of roaring flames.

In the trench below, countless PDF fools watched the scene above, no matter how many substantive 'barrages' they fired, that golden thunder‑sun never paused even a bit from start to finish.

He was like an unstoppable sun, steadily flying toward Nest City with the regularity of ten thousand years.

Fire! Fire!

Everyone, open fire immediately!

This is a demon; for the Emperor, everyone must slay the demon!

Nobility officers stared in terror as Xisi continually approached overhead, while the soldiers looked upon the god‑like scene and could not associate Xisi with a demon.

Even if he were truly a demon, watching our barrage like rain flying toward Xisi from all directions, it exploded directly a few hundred meters away.

The soldiers wondered if there was really any need to attack.

The nobility officers also saw the soldiers' doubtful faces, flushed with anger, then tightly gripped their sidearms and glared furiously toward Nest City behind them.

What on earth did those nobles above do to provoke this great deity?!

The lower‑rank nobility officer couldn't understand, and as the close‑defense fire on Nest City aimed at vehicles sprayed a dense barrage toward Xisi, accompanied by scattering tracer lights, the flying shrapnel struck the soldiers and nobles below, who all shrank into the trench.

In the distance, a line of artillery ready to fire another round at Xisi, in the golden thunder‑sun, after Xisi slightly waved his hand, burst into a sea of fire.

Afterward, many Servo Skulls in the distance monitored the whole battlefield and continuously transmitted the footage to the Planet Governor at the top of Nest City.

What the hell?

What exactly did I do to offend him?

Even sending assassins didn't make him this agitated.

How is he acting like he's gone mad?!

In the Tower Top Governor's office, watching the magnificent scene in the projection, the Planet Governor who runs errands for his master, the Sector Governor, wore only a look of bewildered shock.

He certainly knew Xisi became angry after learning he had performed a soul search on a pair of lowly commoners.

But the problem is, in the Governor's view, they were just two lowly commoners.

Is it really necessary to fly into such a rage over two lowly commoners one can see anywhere, whose worth is even less than weeds?

So even though the Planet Governor witnessed the whole process of Xisi's fury, he simply could not believe that the cause was actually those two lowly commoners who, in his eyes, were worthless sycophants!

The Governor's face turned manic, and as another intense blaze came through the projection, he saw the golden thunder‑sun clinging to Nest City as it rose, with countless close‑defense weapons, turrets, and strongholds directly consumed by explosion and flame after Xisi flew past.

Seeing Xisi, who had never stopped from beginning to end, now actually beginning to fly toward the top of Nest City, the manic expression on his face and the look of fawning in his eyes finally turned into the terror of impending death.

His originally mighty body was completely overwhelmed, limp on the ground, by one lowly commoner after another.

Explain! Yes, explain!

We must give the First Saint a proper explanation!

The Planet Governor trembled as he looked at the screen and spoke; immediately afterward he glanced around, wanting to grab anyone to go face Xisi in his stead, so he could explain things to Xisi.

But at that moment he looked up and saw the room completely empty.

???

You've been freeloading all this time???

The Governor's face stiffened; he angrily shouted while rising, trembling as he tried to go to his safe house.

But just as he finally managed to struggle to his feet and turned to face the window, a round of golden light shone directly in.

Through the window, Xisi stared coldly at the Governor, while the Governor's last bit of strength to flee vanished the moment they faced each other.

He waved his hand; the special glass before Xisi that could withstand cannonballs turned into sharp shards!

Ah?

Ah!!!

The glass shards fiercely pierced the Governor's body; he hadn't felt such pain in who knows how long, and it mercilessly spread from the dense shards all around him.

Thus his first cry of pain was actually bewilderment.

Only after Xisi directly sealed his cry of pain could he only make 'uh‑uh' sounds while watching Xisi fly in steadily.

The spatiotemporal repulsion faded, and the divine artifact's isolation continually retreated.

The divine power from his own subspace projection was frenziedly pouring into his body.

Thus, having fought his way all the way to Nest City, Xisi's body suffered no extra harm; indeed, the Divine Light grew even stronger.

Landing, his footsteps on the glass shards made a 'creak'.

Far below Nest City, successive explosions of fire flared.

And in the Tower Top Governor's room, only the clear sound of Xisi's steps could be heard.

Then, while waiting for the Governor to fully enjoy his pain, Xisi even had leisure to admire the precious painting in the office depicting him slaying the Ancient Ship on Terra.

Xisi was very patient; finally, when the Governor stopped whimpering with his wide‑eyed terror, Xisi could both admire his own painting and wave his hand to let him speak.

First Saint, I was wrong! I really was wrong!

Xisi sat on the sofa, looking at the Governor below who frowned slightly, making no move, as more glass embedded itself into his body.

The intense pain finally made the Governor react; seeing Xisi still cold‑faced, he knew Xisi truly intended to kill him, the Planet Governor, over two lowly commoners.

Feeling utterly hopeless, the Governor's dread was overtaken by dying madness; he glared with blood‑red eyes at Xisi and gritted his teeth to speak:

Even if you really are the First Saint, what of it?

Do you know how much tax I've paid for the Empire? Do you know I'm acting on behalf of the Sector Governor?

You can certainly kill me, but afterward, facing a sudden, nameless 'First Saint' and having killed a model Planet Governor, do you think the Imperial Fleet that will arrive will help you or destroy you?

The Planet Governor strained to explain the most plain and simple reasoning.

Xisi heard this and his face hardly changed; at least in the Governor's world, that statement was indeed unproblematic.

Even if I were to reconnect with the Divine Emperor, the inefficient communications of the real universe mean that the arriving Empire Fleet would not welcome Xisi; instead, under the manipulation of the sector government, they would launch an attack against Xisi.

The planetary governor stated the reality, while hoping Xisi would let it go given the situation.

After all, it's merely a matter concerning two lowly individuals.

There's truly no need to go to war with the Empire over two lowly individuals.

The governor even specifically reminded him at this point:

"When the fighting starts, even if the First Holy One has followers, the messages won't get out—who could help you resist the Empire Fleet?"

After the planetary governor finished speaking, Xisi finally withdrew his gaze from his own portrait and then walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window.

As he passed the governor, his expression became completely calm.

"You mean the sector governor? I understand."

Planetary governor: "???"

Seeing Xisi unmoved by reason or profit, the planetary governor fell into utter despair; at the same time, looking at the lone Xisi, he simply couldn't fathom what Xisi could possibly use to oppose an entire fleet.

Merely in the governor's despair, Xisi, standing by the window, produced an item he hadn't used in a long time.

The governor didn't recognize it; he only knew it looked like a green, strange crown.

"The Empire doesn't support?"

"Then I don't need the Empire's support."

Xisi gently stroked the Green Skin Crown, and then, amid the governor's astonishment, placed the crown upon his head!

"The Green Skin don't need stellar communication! Because the Green Skin's subspace communication is a TM local network!!!"

The crown donned, the Green Radiance flourished.

After joining the Green Skin local network, under the gaze of two pairs of eyes widening in surprise, Xisi firmly secured the crown.

Sith Kid......

He has returned!!!
