• Chapter 20: Delivered to the Doorstep Cover
      by Cristae In the vast expanse of the cosmos, humanity's footprint had expanded far beyond its earthly confines. Yet this same boundless universe also constrained the dissemination of information. Different star systems stood like isolated islands in a sea of space. Nations situated along major interstellar trade routes thrived with wealth and prosperity, while those more remote languished in poverty. The White Whale Galaxy witnessed countless conflicts each day—wars fought over resources, control of…

      by Cristae "What in blazes is that thing?" The pirates stared at the screen with horror etched on their faces. In the White Whale Galaxy, only the Deep Blue Kingdom revered the lost civilizations of old. Only on Deep Blue could one find remnants of ancient architecture and sculptures from bygone eras. These barely educated buccaneers strained their memories for any clue. "It looks like a human," someone ventured. "And what he's riding seems to be a winged horse—yes, I've heard they have such creatures in…

      by Cristae What place could allow you to gain a quicker and more comprehensive understanding of an unfamiliar era? A library? No, Wen Luan discovered that the interstellar pirates' makeshift warehouse was even better suited for this purpose! Wen Luan found himself within a peculiar semi-circular fortress known as the "Lighthouse" by the pirates. This served as both a landmark delineating their territories for raids and a storage facility. Each pirate had their own spaceships or space warships; none actually…

      by Cristae When Wen Luan regained consciousness, he suspected he had fallen into a junkyard. It wasn't that this place was dirty or smelly; rather, various objects were haphazardly piled around him in disarray. He found himself lying on a large fragment of a flying saucer's control panel, with a tipped-over European-style wooden cabinet before him. Resting against it was half an robotic arm, its severed end still crackling with electric sparks emitting blue flashes. Slowly, he crawled to his feet, but saw no…

      by Cristae Wen Luan had never drafted a life plan for himself. For his first twenty years, he lived in an ordinary western small town where each day was a repetition of the last, with few strangers ever passing through. Even when lost travelers stumbled upon Meteorite Town—a place so unremarkable and desolate it could never persuade outsiders to stay—they always left quickly. Sometimes they departed so swiftly that Wen Luan didn't even notice how they'd gone, but this mattered little to him as their presence…

      by Cristae The spacious room was dimly lit; only near the corridor did lamps cast their glow. Throughout Deep Blue City, the architectural style of all buildings closely resembled that of the lost civilization's Baroque era. However, on domes and railings, some distortions reflective of the current age had been incorporated, along with extensive use of dark metallic materials. But this room was clearly different— Its walls were made of stone blocks with a firm texture, adorned by wall sconces shaped like…

      by Cristae Wen Luan was frozen awake. The cold—unimaginably frigid—was like hell itself to him, accustomed as he was to living year-round in a small western town. Instinctively curling up, even before his consciousness fully returned, Wen Luan groped around on the ground for something with which to warm himself. But all his hands encountered was thick accumulated snow. Struggling to fully awaken, the biting wind sliced across his face like knives. In an instant, Wen Luan shrank nearly half his size,…

      by Cristae Every month, Deep Blue suddenly "materializes" two to three lost individuals on its city streets. These lost individuals are very easy to identify: They have no records of entry or exit whatsoever, leaving not even a trace in the vast kingdom's household registration documents. Neither the combat space fortresses orbiting the planet nor Deep Blue City's defense system detect any signs of illegal intrusion (obviously, since they were residents within the city from the start). Many citizens of Deep…

Although he had fainted, it didn't hinder his shixiong from entering his dream to catch him for the exam. After being shaken by Chi You's heaven-defying fate-altering hand, what the hell of the Yi Jing could Nan Shi still remember? When he saw his shixiong in the dream, he thought it was just a pure dream. He casually draped his arm over his shixiong's shoulder, gave a thumbs-up, and blurted out: "Brother,…

Upon seeing Chi You and his group arrive, he bowed and said: "Mountain Lord Chi, I've been waiting for you." "Hm," Chi You replied indifferently, bearing little resemblance to the arrogant, scornful, composed, and faintly smiling Senior Brother Nan Shi was accustomed to seeing in the south. It was as if a completely different person had taken his place. Chi You's expression could even be…

Old Wang pointed to the seal and said, "Boss, can we take down this seal to have a look? Can we have a chance to stamp it?"

Today, despite clearly not many tourists, Nan Shi managed to sell exactly thirteen wristlet strings, along with various small trinkets. It wasn't enough to fill his coffers, but he did make three to five thousand in gross profit. That pile of five emperors' coins still lay on the counter, he hadn't even had time to set aside his hands to string them. It was already past 3:30 PM, the cold temperature overcoming the warm…

He cautiously sat up and looked around, noticing the room was completely quiet today. The incense on the long table had burned out, breaking into segments of ash that lay quietly on the lotus-shaped incense burner, as if no one had come in even halfway through. Qinglan hadn't emerged to pull any more of her tricks, causing his heart to…

This old one comes from a clean background, doesn't do unlawful things! Are you not very convenient today? Why don't I come tomorrow instead?" Nan Shi really couldn't hold…
