Chapter 48

“Hey, my Queen Yuexing friend just took a photo—I’ll forward it to you all.”

“Pfft—!”

Gu Gu Linger, who’d been sipping water, spat it out in shock.

She stared blankly at the photo in the group chat.

Su Yu??

What on earth is he doing??

Attacking the Queen Yuexing Alliance??

“Holy crap—isn’t that Su Yu?”

“What does he think he’s doing?”

“Does he want to spark a war between the Blue Star Alliance and the Moon Star Alliance?!”

“The All-Human Civilization Lord Selection Contest kicks off in three months—why’s he stirring up trouble right now?”

“@Gu Gu Linger, Your Highness Princess, please rein him in!”

Gu Gu Linger: “How am I supposed to rein him in? @Su Yu @Su Yu @Su Yu @Su Yu @Su Yu @Su Yu—like this?”

“You previously muted him, which probably angered him—he’s blocked this group chat…”

“Why not, Your Highness, add him as a friend yourself and say something?”

Gu Gu Linger: “So you’re suggesting I reach out to him first?”

“Uh… yeah.”

Gu Gu Linger: “Fine.”

With a nervous heart,

Gu Gu Linger opened the group member list and sent Su Yu a friend request.

But after waiting for ages, she got no reply at all.

She didn’t know that so many people were trying to add Su Yu as a friend—he’d long since disabled notifications for friend requests.

Unlike her—Her Highness the Princess—ordinary people dared not send her friend requests for fear of disturbing her.

After sending the request,

Gu Gu Linger sat dumbfounded for half a quarter-hour, then suddenly snapped back to reality.

“Damn Su Yu! Stinky Su Yu! Dumb Su Yu! How dare he ignore me…?”

Gu Gu Linger gritted her teeth and cursed under her breath.

Every time she added someone as a friend, they accepted instantly!

In the group chat, Bai Bai Xiaowei suddenly popped up.

Bai Bai Xiaowei: “Um… I can get in touch with him.”

“Oh? Weren’t you classmates back in school?”

“Hurry up and contact him.”

“This is heading straight toward war!”

“Everyone in the Blue Star Alliance is still developing—the war fog over Alliance territory hasn’t even been fully explored yet.”

“Who has time to fight? And against the Moon Star Alliance, no less—that’s completely unnecessary.”

Bai Bai Xiaowei: “Okay, okay—I’ll contact him now.”

Closing the group chat,

Bai Bai Xiaowei wore an excited expression,

Geez—Su Shen is attacking the Moon Star Alliance!

Such a great opportunity—why wasn’t she invited?!

Bai Bai Xiaowei, who’d been lying flat and bored stiff in her domain, was thrilled beyond measure.

She was different from the others,

just like Su Yu,

utterly unconcerned about the All-Human Civilization Lord Selection Contest.

She knew her limits well—someone as weak as her would likely get eliminated in the first round.

So what was there to care about?

Better to focus on how best to cling to Su Shen’s coattails next time—without annoying him.

Hesitating, Bai Bai Xiaowei sent Su Yu a message:

“Is Lord Su Yu online? The Blue Star Alliance folks are talking about your attack on the Moon Star Alliance.”

A notification chimed from her Lord Terminal,

and Su Yu opened it—Bai Bai Xiaowei’s message.

Bai Bai Xiaowei had never spammed him with excessive messages; she always kept her communications concise and appropriate,

so he hadn’t disabled her message notifications.

Su Yu: “Blue Star Alliance? What’s that?”

Bai Bai Xiaowei: “Uh… just check the group chat and you’ll see…”

Bai Bai Xiaowei wiped sweat from her brow—Lord Su Yu… had completely forgotten he was part of the Blue Star Alliance.

Opening the group chat,

Su Yu skimmed it for a moment, then fell speechless.

Since when had these 105 newly appointed Lords formed an alliance?

Cooperating for mutual development and supporting one another ahead of the All-Human Civilization Lord Selection Contest.

In fact, many had even relocated their domains together,

just like this Moon Star Alliance.

Must be the Sovereign’s directive.

As a Blue Star native, Su Yu hesitated briefly before sending a message:

“This is a personal matter—unrelated to the Alliance. Don’t worry.”

If he truly triggered a war between the Blue Star Alliance and the Moon Star Alliance,

he’d be endlessly pestered.

No one yet knew what kind of conflict the Blue Star people and Moon Star people in the cosmic world would spark because of this.

“Su Yu, you’re pretty bold—daring to enter the Moon Star Alliance’s territory all by yourself.”

“Aren’t you afraid of dropping five levels?”

“Afraid of what? He doesn’t even have a cultivation technique—he’s still Level 1 right now.”

“I’ve already leveled up to Level 4—ha ha!”

“A high-tier cultivation technique—comparable to a high-tier hero!”

Ajiesen: “Heh heh, I’m already Level 5—sorry, but I practice a rare cultivation technique; my current combat power has reached fifty points.”

“Whoa… Senior Jiesen already has fifty points of combat power!”

“Rumors say rare heroes can touch the cosmic rules at Level 100; we who cultivate rare techniques should be just like rare heroes…”

“Becoming a god at Level 100? That’s far too distant…”

Since Su Yu had said it was a personal grudge, everyone paid little attention to it.

Besides, he was a lord who hadn’t cultivated any technique,

so what real chaos could he cause in the Moon Star Alliance’s territory?

Level 1—if he dies, there’s no real loss anyway.

Gu Gu Linger: “@Su Yu @Su Yu @Su Yu @Su Yu @Su Yu @Su Yu @Su Yu!”

Su Yu: “What’s up?”

Gu Gu Linger: “Check your private messages!”

Su Yu: “Oh.”

Opening the private message window he’d muted from the start, Su Yu located Gu Gu Linger’s message interface.

Gu Gu Linger: “Add me as a friend!”

Su Yu: “Uh… okay.”

[The other party rejected your friend request.]

Su Yu: “…”

Gu Gu Linger: “I’ve added you as a friend—please accept.”

[You have accepted Gu Gu Linger’s friend request.]

Su Yu wordlessly stared at the Lord Terminal.

What was Gu Gu Linger up to?

Never mind—she was a princess, after all; having princess syndrome was perfectly normal.
