Interstellar boss, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 1804 Loving You (Two-part long chapter combined)

Empress Dowager Li Feng'en and her chief lady-in-waiting Ji Huangzhen, supported by their respective guards, watched in fear as the two figures fought in mid-air.

Tantai Zijun's screams came down from above, and the two of them felt extremely distressed.

"Your Majesty, what's going on?"

"Does Your Majesty have a headache?"

"Why aren't you going up there to save His Majesty?!"

"Hurry! Hurry! Hurry up!"

"Whoever goes to rescue His Majesty will be richly rewarded by me!"

They said it several times, but no one around them was willing to go up.

Everyone avoided their gaze, and even those who were called out by name stammered out a reason why they couldn't go, leaving Empress Dowager Li Feng'en and Chief Lady Ji Huangzhen extremely disappointed and angry.

In fact, those who were willing to go up and assist Tantai Zijun have already gone up.

Now, no one wants to be driven by her.

At that moment, Tantai Zijun's appearance of clutching her head and screaming in agony in the night sky was also captured by someone using a high-powered telescope and uploaded to the StarNet.

In fact, the scene where Xia Chujian fought with Tantai Zijun was also filmed and posted on the StarNet.

At this moment, those watching this scene on the StarNet ranged from the four great dukes to humanoid slaves, including everyone.

At this moment, no one can remain uninvolved.

When Xia Chujian was enveloped by the dark purple Abyss Soul Crystal, many people felt a jolt of fear, thinking that Xia Chujian was doomed to lose.

Those who had secretly sided with Xia Chujian and refused to obey the Empress's orders probably felt that they were doomed and planned to make one last desperate attempt!
However, as time went by, they discovered that although Xia Chujian was encased in dark purple crystal, she did not die immediately.

Moreover, although they could not see the phantom of the golden spider lily, they could see that the thickness of the dark purple crystal was gradually decreasing!

That means Xia Chujian might not necessarily lose!
Then, at this moment, although the dark purple crystal was still covering Xia Chujian, Empress Tantai Zijun on the other side suddenly lost control.

She was in so much pain that she even ripped off her fully enclosed helmet, revealing her contorted face.

Blood and tears streamed from her eyes, mouth, nose, and ears.

Under the night sky, his entire face even looked somewhat eerie.

Just then, the energy in the Abyss Soul Crystal on Xia Chujian's body was completely absorbed by the phantom of the Other Shore Flower that enveloped her.

Xia Chujian raised her hand, and the dark purple Abyss Soul Crystal on her body turned snow-white in an instant, like steam, and completely disappeared.

She strode out into the night sky, as if walking on water, and with a slight flick of her right arm, a long plasma sniper rifle shot out.

Then pull the trigger.

A series of colorless and transparent energy beams shot out, heading towards Tantai Zijun's forehead, chest, two arms, and two legs.

Six dark holes, visible to the naked eye, appeared on Tantai Zijun's body.

When the energy beam from the plasma sniper pierced through Tantai Zijun's forehead, burning her entire brain with intense heat, Tantai Zijun was already completely dead.

However, Xia Chujian was worried that Tantai Zijun's body might contain some kind of advanced remnant species, just like Tantai Hongyuan's before, so she fired a few more shots.

Finally, he switched to the long-handled broadsword, swept it across, and directly chopped off Tantai Zijun's head.

As it turns out, Tantai Zijun did not possess any advanced inherited species.

She died with her eyes wide open, her body lost its balance, and with a thud, her head and body fell from mid-air.

boom!
It fell right in front of Empress Dowager Li Feng'en and Chief Lady Ji Huangzhen.

Empress Dowager Li Feng'en was overcome with grief and covered her mouth with a handkerchief, about to weep bitterly.

But then she saw her chief female officer, Ji Huangzhen, who had grown up with her since childhood, rush over first, pick up Tantai Zijun's head, and press it onto her body that had fallen to the ground.

She held Tantai Zijun in her arms, crying out, "Imperial Physician! Imperial Physician!"

"Help her!"

"Please save my child!"

Empress Dowager Li Feng'en snapped out of her daze and lunged forward to shove Ji Huangzhen aside, angrily saying, "This is my daughter! What business is it of yours?! Get out of my way!"

However, this time, Ji Huangzhen refused to budge an inch.

She suddenly looked up, her face streaked with tears, and cried out in a sobbing voice, "This is my daughter!"

"Your daughter! She was sacrificed by the late emperor the year she was born!"

"Do you think your clumsy tricks can fool the late emperor?!"

Empress Dowager Li Feng'en was stunned, as if struck by a hammer.

She stared at Ji Huangzhen, trying to look at her intently, as if she had suddenly become an amnesiac, not knowing what this familiar stranger was talking nonsense about.

The crowd that surged into the inner courtyard of the palace was stunned.

No one dared to rush over.

Xia Chujian, who was in mid-air, heard this farce and was utterly speechless.

However, she didn't have time to listen to gossip; she was already in contact with Qi Lu.

"Qi Lu, what's the situation with the space fortress on Beichen Star, and the First and Second Interstellar Fleets? When will they come down to defend the king?"

"And what about the four dukes? What about the military?"

Qi Lu's voice was tinged with excitement: "Master! Qi Lu has just intercepted information that the Space Fortress and the First and Second Star Fleets have all refused the Empress's orders and are unwilling to come and deal with you!"

"The ground forces of Beichen Star also refused the Empress's summons."

"Only the Punishment Division of the Northern Star Imperial Capital has sent people on their way!"

"Inside the palace, the Royal Guard is the one that came with the Empress to attack you."

"However, Qi Lu knows that the Royal Guard is not a monolithic entity!"

"Many of them refused to follow the Empress to capture you, so they were imprisoned!"

Xia Chujian breathed a sigh of relief.

She had analyzed the situation and felt that at this juncture, the possibility of her being attacked by everyone was extremely low, which is why she decided to make a big fuss about it.

This opportunity is truly a once-in-a-lifetime chance to overthrow the imperial system of the Northern Chen Empire!
Although the Tantai clan still has distant branches, Xia Chujian will let them know that anyone who wants to be emperor will only face death during her lifetime!
Xia Chujian immediately ordered: "Qi Lu, contact Huo Yushen and tell him to bring the Southern Expeditionary Fleet back immediately!"

"By the way, can you control the Empress's large Bat fighter jet?"

Qi Lu said, "The Empress is dead. The first choice to use that Bat-type fighter jet is Master Su Buyan."

“And Master Su once authorized you with the right to use it.”

"I can try."

As he spoke, Qi Lu sent a message to the mechanical intelligence of the large bat-type fighter jet.

Shortly after making contact, Qi Lu said, "Master, it can be controlled!"

"Those people up there are now living in constant fear."

Xia Chujian nodded: "Tell them to come down immediately! Tell them it's my order!"

She knew that her reputation was now good enough to stop children from crying at night on Beichen Star.

After all, he was a ruthless person who could kill the emperor in public!
She used an alias and a false identity when she killed Tantai Hongyuan. Apart from Huo Yushen, no one knew the real identity of the murderer.

Now, it's a real event; the entire capital, and even the entire Northern Chen Empire, has witnessed firsthand her "heroic" act of "insubordination" by killing the Empress through the Star Network...

If the case goes to a military court, everyone involved will be an eyewitness.

With her reputation, issuing an order to the people on that Bat fighter jet would be a piece of cake.

Sure enough, after Qilu issued the order in her name, everyone on the Bat fighter jet left without hesitation.

They all possessed second-generation mechs, and one by one they piloted these mechs as they flew down from space.

Qi Lu remotely controlled the Bat-type fighter jet to perform a space jump and go to pick up the Southern Expeditionary Fleet.

Of course, given the size of the Southern Expeditionary Fleet, it was impossible to bring back all of them using just one Bat fighter. For example, it was impossible to fit that one Bat fighter into that Star Destroyer.

Even a large bat-type fighter jet couldn't do that.

But Xia Chujian only needed one interstellar fleet member as backup at this moment.

Besides, once the Bat fighter jet is in Huo Yushen's hands, he will naturally know how to deploy it.

Xia Chujian used her quantum computer account to send a message to Huo Yushen.

[Summer's First Meeting]: Tantai Zijun has been executed. The Bat-type fighter jet will arrive in half an hour. Return quickly.

Huo Yushen replied quickly.

[Huo Yushen]: !!! You're amazing! I love you! Love you! Love you! I'll be right back! Don't worry!!!
Xia Chujian curled the corners of her lips into a smile.

Huo Yushen was becoming increasingly audacious in his speech to her.

However, she didn't mind.

Moreover, she trusts Huo Yushen the most right now.

Although she believed that the space fortresses stationed on the major habitable planets and the three interstellar fleets would not attack her.

But now that Tantai Zijun is dead, she can't be sure if these people have other intentions.

Therefore, at this time, she must have her own armed forces at her disposal.

After Xia Chujian gave the order, he then had Qi Lu remotely control his mini "Star Destroyer" to ascend into the depths of space.

He then piloted his mecha back to the ground within the imperial palace.

Right now, this place is bustling with activity, and a gossip drama that has surprised everyone is unfolding.

Empress Dowager Li Feng'en was grabbing her chief lady-in-waiting Ji Huangzhen by the neck, screaming, "What did you say?! You vile woman! What are you saying?!"

"I don't believe it! I don't believe it!"

"I personally tested Zi Jun's genes!"

"From childhood to adulthood, I've had countless tests done! Do you need to tell me?!"

"Don't even think about trying to sow discord between us, mother and daughter!"

Ji Huangzhen glared at Empress Dowager Li Fengen, tears of blood streaming from her eyes.

She burst into laughter, seemingly insane: "Li Feng'en! I've had enough of you!"

"You think you're smarter than everyone else! But if it weren't for me, you would have been killed countless times already!"

"Do you think the late emperor wouldn't have known that you secretly switched the children?!"

"He's just watching coldly, seeing what tricks you can come up with!"

"You sent your daughter out of the palace right after she was born!"

"Let me take care of her... You even wanted me to use my own daughter to cover for your daughter!"

"So your daughter is a human being, but my daughter isn't?!"

Ji Huangzhen suddenly lifted Tantai Zijun's head and brought it close to Empress Dowager Li Fengen, saying in a hoarse voice, "Look! Look for yourself!"

"Who does she look like?!"

"She is clearly my biological daughter!"

Empress Dowager Li Feng'en was so frightened that she fell backward and sat on the ground.

She shoved Ji Huangzhen's head away and sneered, "She clearly looks like me, why don't you look in the mirror!"

"I asked you to help take care of my princess, and you actually dared to have such wishful thinking, treating her as your own child!"

Ji Huangzhen wiped the blood and tears from her face with her backhand and said hatefully, "I gave my daughter all of your daughter's bone marrow..."

"She has your daughter's bone marrow genes, so of course she'll grow to look more and more like you!"

"But she is my daughter! She is not a descendant of your Tantai clan at all!"

Xia Chujian listened with great interest, but when she heard this part, she was puzzled again.

She quietly asked Qi Lu inside her fully enclosed helmet, "...What's going on? Is she Ji Huangzhen and Tantai Hongyuan's illegitimate daughter?"

Qi Lu said, "It shouldn't be. If it were, she wouldn't have needed to exchange the bone marrow of the Empress's own daughter for her own daughter."

"Because only by transplanting bone marrow can we give her a full-body blood transfusion."

"If only bone marrow cells are tested, then the genes are indeed those of the Empress's own daughter..."

Xia Chujian suddenly realized.

She remembered that when confirming Tantai Zijun's identity, the Empress Dowager Li Fengen seemed to have used bone marrow for genetic testing...

No wonder! No wonder!
Empress Dowager Li Feng'en also remembered this matter.

She stared at Ji Huangzhen in astonishment, her eyes almost popping out of their sockets.

She stretched out a trembling hand, pointed at Ji Huangzhen, and could barely utter a complete sentence: "You you you you...you're lying!"

"I don't believe it! I don't believe it!"

She shook her head vigorously, like a rattle-drum.

At this moment, the imperial physicians finally arrived.

The four dukes have also arrived.

In addition, the five highest-ranking generals of the military also arrived at the scene with their subordinates.

They surrounded Xia Chujian, but no one dared to step forward.

Quan Yuxun, leading the Quan family's security team, finally squeezed to the front.

He bowed deeply to Xia Chujian and said, "Marshal Xia's military achievements are outstanding. The entire Quan family will always follow Marshal Xia's lead!"

Zong Ruoning also rushed over, leading the security team of the Zong family's military industry. He saluted Xia Chujian and said, "Marshal Xia, the entire Zong family will follow Marshal Xia's lead!"

Su Buyan landed breathlessly from mid-air, panting as he said, "My Su family also follows Marshal Xia's lead!"

Of the four most powerful dukes in the Beichen Empire, three stand behind Xia Chujian.

Immediately afterwards, at the Joint Chiefs of Staff meeting, the four chiefs of staff also pledged their loyalty to Xia Chujian.

Only Rong Tuidi, the Chief of the General Staff, stood awkwardly in the crowd, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty.

He didn't know how to end this.

The chief imperial physician, along with his men, pushed through the crowd and approached Empress Dowager Li Feng'en and Chief Lady-in-Waiting Ji Huangzhen.

He placed the medical kit on the ground and said calmly, "Please step aside, let me examine His Majesty."

What kind of checkup is it?

Its head was cut off, and there was a big hole in its forehead, chest, arms, and thighs. If it could come back to life, it wouldn't be a human, but a remnant species!

Everyone knows what's going on.

However, the necessary procedures still need to be followed.

No matter how reluctant Ji Huangzhen was, she had no choice but to put down Tantai Zijun's head and place it next to her headless body.

The chief imperial physician conducted tests and confirmed that Tantai Zijun was dead.

Cause of death: mental exhaustion.

When he revealed the cause of his death, everyone was stunned.

Wasn't he killed by Xia Chujian?!
