Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The eastern part of Shenluo City, thirty-sixth district, inside Milin Manor.

This was a huge manor with a land area of more than three hundred square kilometers. In the thirty-sixth city zone in the eastern part of the main city of Shenluo, which had a total population of more than forty million. It was not possible for anyone other than the Galaxy Aristocrats of Beta Planet to have such a large manor.

In this manor, there were ten thousand guards, of which eight thousand were First Order Planet Warriors, one thousand eight-hundred were Second Order Planet Warriors, and two hundred were Third Order Planet Warriors.

It was possible to see how powerful the Galaxy Aristocrats from Beta Planet were from the quality of their guards.

The super rich on Earth were nothing compared to them.

Furthermore, this was only a small part of it. They had all kinds of buildings, all of which were the most sophisticated and advanced in the entire galaxy. Even the one hundred over meter long spacecraft parked inside was made of top grade Idian alloy. Any random spacecraft of theirs was worth at least tens of millions of Galaxy Dollars. It was the epitome of luxury!

In the manor, the most conspicuous building was a giant building that was 118 meters high.

This giant building was not made of floors like other buildings. Instead, it looked like it was carved out of a giant rock. Since it could be used as a building material here, it was naturally not an ordinary material.

Simply put, this was a huge diamond with three sides which were more than one hundred and fifty meters each!

A building that was carved out of a huge diamond!

Inside this building, in a room on the seventh floor which occupied about three hundred square meters.

“Qianxue, you are eighteen this year, it’s time to find a suitable person to get engaged to.” A woman, who looked to be about twenty-five, with long sky-blue locks, said to her daughter who sat on the sofa reading. “Our Beta Planet has always been sparsely populated. When a woman is 18 years old, she should get engaged, and at twenty, married. This is a rule that has existed since ancient times. Despite doing this, the population of the entire planet is still less than 200,000. The continuation of our family line is the primary concern of the people from Beta Planet. No one can object to it.”

The girl, whose name was Qianxue, had a facial features similar to people on Earth. The only difference was her head of lush silver-white long hair which cascaded to her waist like a waterfall. She looked beautiful, but the expression on her face was lofty and unapproachable. She said quietly, “Mother, I have my own plans, you don’t have to worry.”

Galaxy Aristocrat, the Jiang Family, Jiang Qianxue! action

Jiang Qianxue was the real jewel of Jiang Duxing’s family, the man who was the Master of Shenluo City.

The Galaxy Aristocrats from the Beta Planet controlled two of the five giants of the Galaxy Alliance. Their power was more than one could imagine. However, the fertility rate of the Beta Planet people was extremely low. It was considered a blessing from heaven if there was just one child for every ten couples.

Since the man who was the Master of Shenluo City, Jiang Duxing, had a daughter, she was treated like a precious treasure and doted upon. No one would go against her wishes. Since Jiang Qianxue had said that, her mother, Gu Feilan could not do anything about it. She sighed and slowly stood up. In a gentle voice, she said, “Well, since you already have plans, I will not insist. However, you need to get it settled soon. There is mounting pressure from above. I’m afraid even your father will not be able to withstand it.”

“I understand.” Jiang Qianxue nodded, turned a page of her book, and stopped talking.

Although she had control of nearly half of the resources in the main city of the Galaxy Alliance on the Silver Blue super star and she could have anything if she so desired it, Jiang Qianxue loved books the most.

Furthermore, the type of books that she liked was the oldest type, those printed on paper.

This could be said to be a very distinctive feature of hers.

Although she was just 18, Jiang Qianxue exuded a matured feeling. She was so calm it was eerie. In her eyes, it seemed as if there was nothing she would care about.

After her mother left, Jiang Qianxue read her book, then looked at the scenery outside the window and said faintly, “Continuing the family line, that’s the only thing the great elders care about? It’s ridiculous.”

Standing up, Jiang Qianxue put on a white long sleeved trench coat which indicated her status as a galaxy aristocrat. She picked up the book she was reading and slowly walked out.

When she walked out of the door, a Third Order Planet Warrior who was standing guard outside asked respectfully, “Miss Qianxue, are you getting ready to go out?”

“Yes, get ready.” Jiang Qianxue gave a small nod. “I want to go out for a walk.”

“Okay, I will go and get ready now.” The guard immediately started to leave.

“Go.”

Jiang Qianxue waved her hand gently, and the trench coat draped over her shoulders moved slightly.

On the back of the trench coat were printed some black characters—

“Aristocrat Qianxue!”

...

After Jiang Qianxue went out.

The Master of Shenluo City, Jiang Duxing’s study room.

This study room was at least a thousand square meters. There was a complete selection of facilities available in the room, from the most advanced database system in the Galaxy, to the table and kitchenware used to heat up drinks.

Since it was a study, it was mostly filled with books.

The books here were very different from the ones on Earth. It was all very sophisticated holographic projection material. There were books on all topics: profession, people, and everything else.

When you took the book out and flipped it open, a projection would appear and explain to the viewer the content or events contained in that page. It all seemed very convenient.

However, at this time, Jiang Duxing had no desire to read at all.

He sat on the sofa, frowning, and took a puff of his cigarette, then shook his head gently. He smoked the most expensive Nightdew Cigarettes in the galaxy. Each cigarette cost 100,000 Galaxy Dollars, and production was limited to only thirty million pieces per year. If you did not manage to buy it this year, then, sorry, please come back again next year. It was the epitome of luxury.

“Old Master,” Jiang Qianxue’s mother, Gu Feilan, sighed softly and said, “I just spoke to Qianxue, but she still has not agreed. The child has grown up and has her own thinking. I cannot force her.”

Gu Feilan was really quite worried about her daughter’s marriage.

It was extremely difficult for Beta Planet people to have a baby. The entire Beta Planet, consisting of the Saiyan and the Roth clans, was just a little more than 200,000 people. In recent centuries, the population had become scarcer. If this continued, the Beta Planet people would disappear in the long river of the universe.

Even with the technology the Beta Planet people possessed, they were unable to find out why it was so difficult for them to have a child. In the end, helpless, they had to give up. They thought that God might have given up on the Beta Planet people, or perhaps, God gave them the best of everything else, and took away part of their ability to procreate.

Therefore, now that Jiang Qianxue was eighteen years old, her marriage had become the focus of all Galaxy Aristocrats.

They could not ignore it. Every Beta Planet female had to make this choice when she became an adult.

“What else can I do if Qianxue is not willing?” The powerful and mighty Jiang Duxing was troubled when faced with the issue of his child’s marriage. “The total population of the Saiyan and Roth clans combined is only 196,532. Every child is born under the watchful eye of tens of thousands of people. Everyone on the entire Beta Planet hopes they can shower their child with all that they own. I became the Master of Shenluo City, partially because of our Jiang Family’s social standing, but mainly because we have Qianxue. She has always been doted on like the most beautiful jewel. If she says no, who can do anything about it?”

“True.” Gu Feilan shook his head helplessly. “Actually, I feel the Yin family child, Yin Tianzong, is pretty good. He is clever, handsome and he is about the same age as our Qianxue. Their family background is also similar to ours. However, for some reason, Qianxue simply has no feelings for him. Sigh, I’m so worried.”

Hearing his wife mention Yin Tianzong, Jiang Duxing sighed and said, “Yes, all aspects of Tianzong seem good, but Qianxue simply does not like him. What can I do? Perhaps they are not fated to be. Things like this cannot be forced.”

“Eh, yes.” Gu Feilan nodded. “Forget it, let’s not think about that now. It’s still early, Qianxue has just turned eighteen and still thinking of fun. Perhaps it will be better in a year or two.”

“I hope so.” Jiang Duxing said with a smile, “It’s hard to brush off the bunch of old men above.”

...

Aboard the spacecraft built completely with Idian alloy.

Jiang Qianxue looked at the scenery outside the window and sighed wistfully.

A girl from the Beta Planet had to start preparing for her wedding when she turned eighteen years of age. This was something Jiang Qianxue did not agree with.

A girl who had just turned eighteen would still be thinking of having fun. Why would she want to get married? Although she was not like others who just wanted to have fun and play games the entire day, there were many other things she wanted to do with her time. For the Beta Planet people, was marriage not just for the sake of continuing the family line?

That Yin Tianzong kept trying to gain her favor, but how could she treat matters of the heart as a joking matter?

She thought about it again, then shook her head vehemently and shook all the cluttered thoughts out. She asked softly, “Where are we?”

“Miss Qianxue,” said a Third Order Planet Warrior. “We have just arrived in the twenty-seventh district of the Western City.”

“Okay.” Jiang Qianxue sighed and said, “Are there any fun places around here? I want to go out for a walk, clear my mind.”

“Nearby...” The guard raised his arm. Soon, the high-tech watch on his arm projected the map of the twenty-seventh district of the Western City. He looked at it and reported: “There are twenty-seven district amusement parks, Tianying Grand Theatre, No. 27 Grand Theater, Sauron Auction Center, etc...”

“Sauron Auction Center?” Hearing that, Jiang Qianxue thought for a while and said, “I remember three days from now the Sauron auction house will hold an auction. Let’s go there today.”

“Okay!” The master had given the order, and the guards directed the spacecraft’s intelligent system. “The Sauron Auction Center.”

“I got it.”
