Their private vehicle was arranged for by Jasper. The all-terrain vehicle was particularly suited for Tita’s wilderness. However Jasper was not the one to explain this, for he seemed to have turned into a timid young boy at the moment.

“At present a vast majority of planets have become magnetized, but due to Tita Star’s special circumstances, it still retains its original state. As such, one is able to personally experience the bumpiness of rubber tires as well as the traditional hunting methods of the past. I assure you that it’ll be both exciting and fun.” Yan Xiaosu explained.

De Fulei glanced at Yan Xiaosu. “Fatty, what’s your relationship with Wang Zheng?”

“Since a beauty has deigned to ask me a question, I will not stop before I answer it fully. I am actually Wang Zheng’s twin brother,” Yan Xiaosu replied.

Wang Zheng did not know whether to laugh or cry. Upon seeing pretty ladies, this brat was starting to fire on all cylinders. There was no holding him back.

“Oh, are you a mutant?” Ai Xiaolu interjected from the side. Everyone else in the car rolled over laughing. Yan Xiao Su pitifully replied, “The good genes were all taken by him.”

“Brother Yan, don’t you always claim that you’re full of good genes?” Gabriel matter-of-factly commented.

The audience started to roar with even more laughter. Jasper really wanted to slap his own mouth. Somehow he was unable to even utter a word. Even Gabriel was doing better.

It was just that he had idolized Ai Xiaolu from a long time ago. In his heart he believed that she would never bother to take a second glance at a loser like him even if they were met in person. However, they were somehow sitting together in the same car now.

“Tita Star is indeed interesting. There’s an exuberant vigor to it and it’s kind of similar to the Hail Cloud Alliance’s origin planet.” Snow Li commented. No matter what, the wood element was always able to comfort people. Among the five elements , the properties of wood were the warmest and most supportive. This was unlike other properties that would cause discomfort if they were too excessive.

“Mmm, I feel that TIta Star should not rely only on their Super Gravity Ore. I have yet to come across a thriving planet that has mining as its primary industry. I feel like tourism would probably be a better industry in the future. This place can combine vacations along with risky adventures to cater to both high-end and middle-class consumers. This place is also perfectly in line with the Milky Way Alliance’s lifelong creed of preserving planets, so there will definitely be tons of money to be made from tourism.” Ai Xiaolu casually remarked.

In an instant everyone else in the car were at a loss for words. Wang Zheng was stunned as well. In this era of interstellar voyage, the tourism industry was already very much developed, especially when it came to middle to high-end vacations. However, Tita consisted of high-quality ecological resources and special life-nourishing properties. He was able to sense these properties, and anyone with just a small amount of Ability X would be able to sense it as well. This was the perfect way to advertise this place. There were countless rich people who could use such pristinely natural nourishment.

“How....sharp!” Jasper managed to mumble two words, and even hiccuped as well.

Despite this, nobody laughed at him. Wang Zheng nodded. “Since we’re embarking on this project, we want to do it right. Looks like inviting you over was the correct move. Don’t expect me to pay you for your suggestions though.”

Ai Xiaolu glared at Wang Zheng, “What a petty guy. Anyway, you’ve entertained the three of us for long enough. Uncle Luo, in a while we’ll be going about our own business. We’re really safe here so it’s fine. That assassin has left anyway.”

The man known as Uncle Luo let out a slight smile, “You need someone to carry your bags anyway. Let me tag along and just act as though I’m not there.”

The three girls had no choice. It was apparent that this Uncle Luo had come along with Ai Xiaolu to serve as her bodyguard. The recent chaos on Tita Star still had some after effects after all. After all, outsiders did not really know what exactly went on here. All they knew was that safety was not the greatest here. This had a large impact on tourism as well.

If they were to develop the tourism industry, safety had to be an utmost priority, or else nobody would ever bother to visit.

Ai Xiaolu and the rest were not lacking in skill, but there was little chance for them to show it on Tita star. The power of ice was heavily inhibited on Tita Star. As such, their family definitely had to take other measure to ensure their safety for this visit.

On the road Yan Xiaosu maintained his cheerful and witty conversations. The three beauties were each special in their own way. Ai Xiaolu’s background was far too intimidating, so Yan Xiaosu crossed her off his list. When it came to an absolute beauty like Snow Li, Yan Xiaosu did not even to stop to think about it. Yan Xiaosu was a professional, from the way Snow gazed at Wang Zheng he was able to understand the situation perfectly. There was still De Fulei. She was indeed a sultry beauty that totally fit Yan Xiaosu’s type. Perhaps there was a chance there.

In contrast to Lie Xin’s callous character, these three were lively and passionate. This allowed the others to enjoy a holiday-like vibe as well.

It seemed like a certain saying rang true – “The Scenery is not as important as who you see the scenery with.”

After helping the three of them settle down, Wang Zheng conveyed his opinions to Ye Zisu and Lan Ling. While they were improving the infrastructure of Tita Star, they could also devote their efforts to expanding the tourism industry concurrently. This definitely complied with the requirements that the people of Tita had when it came to the environment, and Tita Star would maintain its own character as well.

There were countless planets in the Milky Way that were still in their original state, but it was rare for them to contain such an excessive amount of lively vigor.

This was also a way for Tita Star to not be known as just another mining planet.

If they were to go forward with this, they obviously had to work with an influential corporation, and the Ai Shi Financial Group definitely fit the bill.

This was a going to be a huge project.

Tita Star had originally calmed down, but the arrival of Snow Li and the rest brought about a certain liveliness to the planet once again. They were all schoolmates and were Wang Zheng’s good friends as well. Naturally, they were inseparable too.

Lan Ling, Ye Zisu and Yan Xiaosu were more familiar with one another. Lie Xin and Achilles formed another clique, whereas Snow Li, Ai Xiaolu and De Fulei were naturally grouped together.

They gathered together for a meal of Tita Star’s local delicacies. While they had basically eaten every exotic delicacy from all across the world, Tita Star’s dishes indeed had a taste that could not be found anywhere else.

The only thing was that the lively atmosphere was hamstrung by a certain awkwardness in the air. The reason was Lie Xin’s casual behavior. Wang Zheng, Lie Xin and Achilles had been training together recently and during their battles there was no need to differentiate between males and females. Furthermore, they were familiar with each other beforehand, so they placed less of an importance on these matters as well. Girls from Mars were rather open-minded and did not care too much about details either, so it was not a huge deal for Lie Xin to casually wrap her arms around Wang Zheng’s shoulder and the like.

Usually this would not have been a huge deal at all, but in such a group setting Lie Xin continued to do as she pleased. This made some of the others uncomfortable.

“Wang Zheng, find some time to accompany me to the inner region of Tita will you? The game on the hunting grounds have all been raised in captivity, so there’s no real meaning in hunting them.” Lie Xin remarked. When she was with Achilles and Wang Zheng, her mood dramatically improved. She was obliged to do too many things while she was still alive. Being from a big family made no difference. From a young age she was not really allowed to make any choices. As the heir to the Lie family, she had to do this or that; If she wanted to live she had stay ruthless, for any relaxation would have led to her death.

“Sure, but we have to find a Tita guide. Transport on Tita isn’t that great, so we’ll get lost easily if we go on our own.”

“Let me send for someone. If I’m not too busy, I can accompany you all.” Lan Ling smiled; she was rather imposing.

“I can join you all as well. After all I’ve settled most of the stuff that I was busy with.” Ye Zisu smiled as well.

Wang Zheng shook his head, “Zisu, the inner region is still too dangerous. You shouldn’t come along. Furthermore, you have to keep an eye out for Tyrant Su and ensure that he doesn’t ruin things.”

“Boss, don’t be like this. Why’d you have to put me down in front of all these pretty girls?” Yan Xiaosu protested.

Ai Xiaolu was watching intently. From the beginning she was trying to understand the relationships between all these people. It was obvious that Wang Zheng’s desire to protect Ye Zisu and Yan Xiaosu was genuine, but it did not seem like there were any romantic links between Wang Zheng and Ye Zisu. Wang Zheng probably treated her like his younger sister instead.

However, things were more complicated when it came to Lie Xin. Men like Wang Zheng would find it hard to resist a woman that was as sexy and wild as Lie Xin. Nothing seemed off-limits to Lie Xin either.

This was dangerous!

Ai Xiaolu and De Fulei were undoubtedly Snow’s bosom friends, and they had already verified that Lie Xin was their most threatening adversary.

Girls from the Hail Cloud Alliance were not as enthusiastic as those from other planets. Even if they were truly passionate, they always maintained a cool demeanour on the outside. Things were even more severe when it came to Snow Li. It would be more difficult for her to confess to a boy than to promote to Earth Grade. As her bosom friends, Ai Xiaolu and De Fulei had to stand on her side.

“If you truly want it to be exciting, the best choice would be to go alone. What would be the point otherwise? Having a bodyguard defeats the purpose no?” Ai Xiaolu commented.

Lie Xin glared at Ai Xiaolu. Ai Xiaolu did not care in the slightest as she stared back. When it came to her figure, her looks or her level of skill, there was no individual that Ai Xiaolu felt challenged by. At Elite Academy, everyone was merely a student. Only the stupidest people would used their family background to show off.

Ai Xiaolu clearly did not care for the Lie family’s reputation.

Lie Xin stared for a bit. She sensed that something was not right, but her gaze became more intense after looking at Wang Zheng, “That won’t do. The Scenery is not as important as who you see the scenery with. Wang Zheng is reliable enough for that.”

“Are you implying that I’m not reliable?” Achilles asked with a slight smile.

“Handsome guys from the Moon are too refined for my taste. We Martians prefer rougher types instead.”

“It’s better if girls are gentler.” Snow could not help but interject. In the Hail Cloud Alliance, the prevalent form of beauty was quiet beauty. Traits that were favored included inner restraint, outer temperament as well as elegance and grace. The women of Mars were definitely far too spontaneous and crude for their tastes.

It was a pity that Snow Li’s retort was rather weak. At this moment Jasper was called over by Yan Xiaosu. This was just to salvage some of his reputation, but in actuality Jasper no longer seemed to be in a position where he could voice his opinions.

Everyone present was truly talented. He had heard of Elite Academy X before. Apparently it was a mysterious place where superhumans existed. Before his eyes were all these god-like humans who were considered extraordinary in comparison to his own circle of friends. It was apparent that these people lived in an entire different world from him. Even someone of Ai Xiaolu’s stature had to abide by the rules in that world.

Jasper was deep in thought. The world was way too big. In the past he always believed he was the best at everything. He was definitely just an ignorant frog in a well.

The only thing that he was an expert in was picking up girls. It was fairly obvious to him that there was some conflict going on between these girls.

The smoking hot Snow Li was definitely interested in Wang Zheng. On the other hand, Lie Xin may not have any intentions towards Wang Zheng, but she was an aggressive girl that would not back down from any provocation from others. She would not mind being passionate either.

It would be better if Ai Xiaolu stayed quiet, or else more troubles would arise.

It seemed like Yan Xiaosu’s boss truly had an extraordinary background. He caused the Earth Grade assassin to retreat as though he was nothing more than a pain-in-the -ass. Even more important was this person’s network of relations. At the same time, he had so much authority on Tita Star, and was only about to gain more influence in the future.

He had to maintain such a relationship. This would not only allow him to obtain a stable position within his family and corporation, it could also allow him to obtain some benefits from Lya Sphinx.

Lya Sphinx also wanted to obtain the right to use space technology projects. However, Their level of communication with the Solar System had been steadily declining. Even if they wanted to use such technology, Aslan and other strong countries would be the first in line. On the other hand, Ye Zisu was apparently a major shareholder of KING company, and had some influence over Professor Xiao Fei. If he was able to capitalize on such a relationship, he would be able to help Lya Sphinx attain something. Even attaining something as small as a negotiation opportunity would improve his reputation by a lot.

Just thinking about these possibilities sent chills down Jasper’s spine. He would never have imagined that he and his good-for-nothing circle of followers would actually have a chance at meteoric success.

On these two sides, Ai Xiaolu and Lie Xin were definitely fighting a battle of words. There was a certain finesse to quarrels between women. Even as they unleashed stinging criticism towards each other, they never used vulgarities to get their point across. Wang Zheng was bewildered in this moment as well, but at this point of time nobody dared to intervene. Both Ai Xiaolu and Lie Xin were not to be trifled with.

“I’ve heard that Miss Ai’s ice powers are really strong. As to whether ice or fire is stronger, I’ve long wondered what the answer actually is. I wonder if you can find some time to help me answer this question?” Lie Xin’s smile was dazzlingly sexy. Things seemed to be escalating towards a physical altercation.
