The Seventh Base

Chapter 682: Chapter 79 Birthday Feast_2

After listening, Sal remained silent for a moment before speaking, “Since Brother Xu Mo has shared all his secrets with me and explained the reasons, how could I mind? The men of the Sasi Kingdom aren’t that petty. From now on, you, Miss Elizabeth, and I will each go our own way.”

Xu Mo was startled, then clenched his fist and raised it. Sal did the same, and their fists collided fiercely, each stepping back a step as Sal let out a hearty laugh.

“When do you plan to tell Miss Elizabeth?” Sal asked.

“She’ll find out sooner or later. Plus, after all, I am the man behind the scenes at Blue Star Energy Technology Group. For Blue Star Energy Technology to develop, we’ll need Miss Elizabeth’s help,” Xu Mo said.

“Mhm,” Sal responded, looking at Xu Mo with some admiration. He had thought that being a prince of the Sasi Kingdom made him exceptional, but comparing himself with Brother Xu Mo, he felt utterly worthless.

“Even though I’m a rival to Miss Elizabeth, the woman has a good appearance and temperament, and being the Princess of Lucas Star, Brother Xu Mo has a knack for this sort of thing. Why not just…” Sal had a conspiratorial glint in his eyes.

“…” Xu Mo looked at Sal, surprised to learn this side of him.

“Brother Sal, you must have some misunderstanding about me,” Xu Mo said.

“Heh,” Sal gave Xu Mo a meaningful look, as if to say, “You womanizer, don’t pretend to be innocent in front of your brother.”

“Do you want to expand Blue Star Energy Technology Group?” Sal asked.

“Yes,” Xu Mo nodded.

“I’ll help you,” Sal said.

“Sal…” Xu Mo looked at him.

“To develop and grow your own power, you’ve made a wide range of connections. In associating with you, am I not also seeing the strength that can enlighten me?” Sal said, “Now that we’ve laid it all out, it’s only right for brothers to help each other, especially since I’ve heard that the Blue Star Energy Technology Group’s weapons are not bad. I’ll have the people of the Sasi Kingdom get in touch with the Blue Star Energy Technology Group to see if we can introduce it to the Sasi Kingdom.”

Xu Mo nodded. Good brother, very loyal.

When should I get the Soray Brothers and the Yekaterina Sisters to show some loyalty too, and share some of the shares with Brother Sal?

Miss Elizabeth and Izekat definitely wouldn’t allow it, given Sal’s special status. Give shares to Sal for Miss Elizabeth? If she found out, she could kill me!

I can only rely on the Soray Brothers and the Yekaterina Sisters.

Xu Mo’s favorite thing is a loyal good brother!

…

Today is Miss Elizabeth’s twentieth birthday party. The Lucas Star Royal Family is hosting a grand coming-of-age ceremony, and the entire capital of Lucas Star is exceptionally lively. The media will report on this grand event, and some will even broadcast live outside the banquet, with countless people watching.

Today, Miss Elizabeth is a national goddess, arguably one of the most popular women on Lucas Star. The public is hoping for a perfect coming-of-age ceremony for Princess Elizabeth.

Furthermore, those attending this grand feast aren’t just the nobility of Lucas Star. Quite a number of members from the Star System Alliance have sent representatives to join the festivities, as most of the attendees, due to Elizabeth being a princess, are princes and princesses from various planets within the Star System Alliance.

At the library, Xu Mo turned on his communicator to watch the news; he saw the footage of Elizabeth arriving at the event, dressed in a pristine, long white dress that bared her neck and clavicles, adorned with a gemstone necklace, her skin as white as snow, embodying sexiness, nobility, and elegance.

This made Xu Mo reflective; she looked quite beautiful. Why hadn’t he noticed before?

“Today’s Princess Elizabeth is truly beautiful,” a voice came from behind him.

“Indeed,” Xu Mo said.

Hmm?

Xu Mo sensed the air turn a few degrees colder. Without turning off the communicator’s screen, he said, “Princess Elizabeth, in her formal attire, has a third of my girlfriend’s beauty.”

The chill in the air seemed to dissipate a bit as Zero sat down beside Xu Mo.

Nan Xiangyi then took a seat next to Zero, holding a book.

“Oh, what a coincidence,” Xu Mo said, glaring at Nan Xiangyi. That voice was Nan Xiangyi’s; she dared to try such a trick? Unbelievable!

Nan Xiangyi was doomed; she simply had to be dealt with for such audacity!

She was corrupting Zero.

“Xiao Nan, student,” Xu Mo called out.

Nan Xiangyi placed her book on the table, looking at Xu Mo across Zero.

“Little Wal wants to ask me out for a meal again,” Xu Mo said. “Do you know why?”

Nan Xiangyi revealed an unusual expression, and of course, she knew why.

When Wal invited Xu Mo, he actually wanted to invite Xu Mo and Zero which meant Nan Xiangyi would be brought along.

“Little Wal has been close to me with an ulterior motive, could it be, Xiao Nan, that you’ve been following my girlfriend every day with your own motives too?” Xu Mo asked, looking at Nan Xiangyi.

“…”

In an instant, Nan Xiangyi understood and immediately showed a weird look as she turned to Zero, whose expression was also strange.

“Senior sister, he’s trying to sow discord,” said Nan Xiangyi to Zero.

Zero nodded slightly and glared at Xu Mo.

“Zero, you’re too naive. Your boyfriend is so outstanding; you need to guard against those women with ulterior motives,” Xu Mo continued.

Nan Xiangyi: “…”

“Xiao Nan, I only see you as my sister, please don’t overthink it,” Xu Mo said, looking at Nan Xiangyi.

“Senior sister, I’m going to look for a book,” said Nan Xiangyi, feeling her face burning up as she walked away dejectedly.

Xu Mo is really shameless!

After all, she is the Royal Princess from Canaan Star.

“Xiao Nan is a bit curious about you; she might have guessed something,” Zero said softly. These last few days, Nan Xiangyi has been trying to pry something out, and Zero noticed it.

“I’ve noticed,” Xu Mo responded, not expecting Nan Xiangyi to have a gossip-loving heart.

Ah, women!

However, Nan Xiangyi’s observation skills were indeed impressive. She had just started school and had already begun to notice things.

She could be developed into a shareholder, though I wonder if the Soray Brothers and Yekaterina would be willing to sacrifice a share!

A headache!

Out of the seven permanent members of the Star System Alliance, he now knew four princes and princesses from Lucas Star, Sasi Kingdom, Carolan Star, and Canaan Star.

In the future, once these princes and princesses come into power, they could influence the Star System Alliance.

Xiao Nan must be secured, to be developed into a sister!

“Miss Elizabeth looks truly beautiful today,” someone nearby, also watching the news, commented in a low voice.

“Many princes and princesses from different planets have arrived today; it would be great to attend today’s banquet.”

“Do you think anyone will pursue Miss Elizabeth?”

“Of course, but I actually think Miss Elizabeth and her Guardian Knight would make a great match.”

While they discussed this, Xu Mo felt a sharp pain at his waist.

Xu Mo was frustrated. If you guys want to chat, can you do it without involving me?

An undeserved disaster!

Meanwhile, outside the banquet hall, people continued to arrive, dressed in luxurious clothes—all nobility from Lucas Star as well as representatives from the Star System Alliance.

Outside, a group of people stood quietly waiting.

If Xu Mo were there, he would recognize some familiar faces among the group—Li Zelong and Nanming Huowu. They stood quietly among the group of people; these were the representatives from Byron Star.

At that moment, someone approached them and after a brief conversation, led them toward the inside of the banquet. If it were just people from Byron Star, they wouldn’t even have the qualifications to enter the banquet.

The current Byron Star, in a sense, had entered a colonial era. Although it was still officially governed by the Federation Government, led by Conrad, the true puppeteers behind the scenes were planets like Camp Star which had begun to control all of Byron Star’s resources and carried out colonization.

Families like the Li family, which had sided with them in the past, were now on their last legs and had become puppets, having given up everything they were supposed to. Resource families like the Li family were naturally not spared in the colonization of the planet.

Moreover, the rule of alien planets had not brought about technological advancement as Conrad had envisioned for Byron Star to rebuild from its destruction. Instead, it brought more enslavement.
