Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Cheng Yuxiao claimed that Xu Jin was killed by them, and Huang Kejia from Cangming Star Hall also said that Xu Jin was killed by them—it had become an ironclad case.

Then why not dismount along the slope, go with the flow.

Let it be said that they were the killers.

It was they who plotted in the shadows, leading to Xu Jin's assassination by the alien race, and then Cheng Yuxiao's chase to exact revenge!

Absolutely perfect!

Since they had taken on the blame, might as well do it thoroughly and enjoy some benefits along the way.

"Lord, your subject has another matter to report."

"Speak!"

"Lord, Cheng Yuxiao seems to have greatly increased his strength! With just one strike, he severely wounded Hu Jinsan, and I, in full defense, was unable to withstand a single blow from Cheng Yuxiao!" Xia Zhong said.

"What?"

"You couldn't withstand a single blow from Cheng Yuxiao, even in full defense!"

This news shocked the Tianyang Star Lord.

If that was truly the case, then Cheng Yuxiao's strength had indeed improved significantly.

With Xia Zhong as a reference, Cheng Yuxiao's combat power was not far from his own.

Waving his hand, Wang Kan took Xia Zhong away to heal, while the Tianyang Star Lord fell into deep thought.

Theoretically, at the eighth tier, it's very difficult to achieve significant advancements in combat power, but Cheng Yuxiao had improved, which suggested he might have overcome some weakness.

The threat was even greater!

******

At Cangming Star Hall, the Cangming Star Lord received a report from Seventh Elder Huang Kejia and rewarded the two on the spot.

Fantastic!

In this battle, Tianyang Star Hall lost a seventh-tier, severely wounded another, and their strength was diminished.

From the Da Chen National Daoist School's side, the future talent Xu Jin had fallen.

But most crucially, Huang Kejia made a decisive move to have Xia Zhong and others from Tianyang Star Hall appear and take on the blame, nearly severing the relationship between Tianyang Star Hall and the Da Chen National Daoist School.

In contrast, Cangming Star Hall suffered no losses in this battle, only gains!

Both sides incurred losses, but Cangming alone benefited.

This time, in the scheme and layout, it was Cangming Star Hall that had won.

In the future, relations with Dachen would only grow closer.

"Remember, no matter where you are, you must insist that Xu Jin was killed by Xia Zhong, the Sixth Elder from Tianyang Star Hall. Even if he didn't personally kill him, he plotted against Xu Jin, leading to his death by the alien race," Cangming Star Lord instructed.

"Great Elder, after the Nine-star Tide is over, you may visit the Da Chen National Daoist School and see Cheng Yuxiao. It's time for our two sides to deepen cooperation," said the Cangming Star Lord.

"Your subordinate obeys!"

*****

At Xu Family in Jinshan County.

Xu Jin had completely explained the causes and consequences to his father, leaving nothing unclear.

His father had heard of Xu Jin's achievements over the past half-year, but experiencing and seeing them firsthand was a surprise and delight.

After all, even the Emperor he old man wanted to kill his son.

How many people in this world were considered worth the personal effort of the Emperor to send assassins?

Though he had never left Jinshan County in his life, the old man saw the big picture clearly, was open-minded, and didn't stubbornly cling to his homeland.

"The alien race Star Domain, and I've never left Jinshan County in my entire life. I didn't expect to have a chance to visit the alien race Star Domain. Even if I die there, it would be worth it!

Now that I've got a daughter-in-law, this old man is satisfied!"

"Uh?"

Xu Jin was taken aback, "Dad, what are you talking about? What daughter-in-law?"

Xu Dajiang pointed outside to Ji Bang, "That father-in-law came over the day before yesterday, saying he wanted to propose marriage for his granddaughter. I hesitated and didn't agree, waiting for you to come back to ask for your opinion.

But now, I think it's better to agree."

Xu Jin was astonished.

After a long while, and a further exchange with Ji Bang, Xu Jin finally understood the whole situation.

Ji Bang had indeed come to propose marriage.

It was the command of the parents, and as long as Xu Jin's father could be convinced, the granddaughter's marriage would be mostly secured.

But Ji Bang had not expected things to change so quickly.

He had directly received orders from the State Preceptor to protect and move Xu Dajiang.

He had not expected that 'Xu Jin' would have died in battle!

This situation had become complicated.

Xu Jin also felt overwhelmed.

Ji Bang sought out the old man based on the development potential of the previous Xu Jin.

But now, although Xu Jin was alive, his identity was that of a deceased in battle; this was tricky.

And Xu Jin himself was also hesitant.

He did have a good impression of Ji Hongli, a beautiful young lady that any normal man would like, pleasing to the eyes.

But Xu Jin was more concerned about Ning Yuchan.

Fortunately, Ji Bang did not bring up the matter again.

Xu Jin then told his father, as long as Ji Bang didn't mention it, to never bring it up.

Even if Ji Bang did bring it up, it was best to push it off temporarily on the pretext that Xu Jin's current identity was too awkward.

Half a day later, Ji Bang set off with Xu Dajiang and his two concubines.

Ever since Xu Jin made his mark, the old man had become quite the celebrated figure in Jinshan County, attracting widows with ease.

If not for the old man's own standards, the courtyard might be filled with dozens of them!

The reason he took these two along was the old man's sentimentality and loyalty to the past.

As for Xu Jin, his path now led towards the Galaxy Battlefield.

According to the State Preceptor's arrangement, there were too many acquaintances at the Da Chen National Daoist School; Xu Jin couldn't go back for the time being.

Otherwise, he would be easily recognized.

It was arranged for Xu Jin, in the guise of an ordinary person, to cultivate earnestly in the Galaxy Battlefield for a while. Once his strength improved, returning as Xu Jin would be a simple matter.
