Star Farming, the eldest lady relies on alchemy to counterattack

Chapter 442 Liu Linfeng Requests an Audience

"I wouldn't say I'm entirely confident, but I have a rough idea," Ji Wuque said, enduring the probing gazes of the others.

Upon hearing Ji Wuque's words, the others displayed various expressions.

Although they are cooperating temporarily, they ultimately hope that their own side can gain the greatest benefit.

Ning Xuan's intrinsic value is immeasurable, but she brought back countless Prajna Fruits from the Nova Planet. Who knows if she has any other treasures on her? Therefore, they naturally want to obtain the treasures on Ning Xuan's body as well.

“Brother Ji, if you capture Ning Xuan first, aside from anything else, you should at least share some of the Prajna Fruit with us. We can exchange other resources with you. Of course, it’s the same if someone else gets it. What do you all think?” Gu Qingkong from Starry Sky Academy glanced at the others and said with a smile.

“I agree, but no one knows how many Prajna Fruits Ning Xuan has, or how many she can offer in exchange. Since we’re all relying on our own abilities to capture her, whoever catches her first must abide by the agreement and refrain from underhanded tactics or infighting.” Ji Wuque wasn’t truly willing to exchange the Prajna Fruits. He could verbally agree now, but once he captured Ning Xuan and obtained what she possessed, the exact number of Prajna Fruits would ultimately be up to him.

Seeing Ji Wuque's behavior, the others felt uneasy. Although they had also secretly used some methods, they had not achieved any significant results. They didn't know what progress Ji Wuque had made. Although they had reached a common agreement to capture Ning Xuan, for their own benefit, they all hoped to keep Ning Xuan under their control.

“Brother Ji, Ning Xuan seems to know we’re watching her and refuses to leave the Central Star. I caused so much trouble for the Heavenly Might Legion to lure Yun Han to the New Planet. I originally thought that with Ning Xuan’s affection for Yun Han and what she gained on the New Planet, she might be tempted to follow her there. But she stayed, and even remained in the main defense zone. Do you have any good ideas to get Ning Xuan to leave the Central Star? Do you need our cooperation?” Mo Changsheng asked tentatively.

His words were meant to tell others that he had contributed to the capture of Ning Xuan, and also to test Ji Wuque to see if he could extract any useful information.

“To capture Ning Xuan, we don’t necessarily have to leave the Central Star. As long as we’re willing to pay the price, even if Ning Xuan stays at the Qingluan Mountain villa, there’s still a way to take her away,” Ji Wuque said meaningfully.

Everyone else fell silent.

They all understood what Ji Wuque meant. However, the Central Star was very special, and the cost of doing something shady in a core area like the Qingluan Mountain Villa would be immeasurable.

On Central Star, since the auction incident, Yu Mingche secretly set up a scheme. Qinghe and Di Youlin, relying on their high-level spirit controller intuition, quickly identified three suspicious individuals from the auction house staff and the villa area security team within a few days. After a series of investigations, it was discovered that one of these individuals was a direct relative controlled by the Ji family, while the other two had their identities replaced using secret techniques. After identifying these three individuals, they reported to the Central Star Investigation Bureau, which implicated more than a dozen problematic public officials. Since then, the Central Star security system has undergone a new round of rigorous investigations. "Master, there is someone outside claiming to be your subordinate requesting an audience. He says he left you a message and only dared to come after receiving your permission," Di Youlin reported as Nine-Tailed Fox knelt beside Ning Xuan, reading some important documents to her.

Ning Xuan raised her hand, and the Nine-Tailed Fox immediately stopped. There were many people who wanted to visit her, but most of them were stopped outside the villa area. Those who were able to enter the villa area and find their way here must have used the permit she had given them.

"Let him in." Ning Xuan already knew who had come to visit.

"General, I've finally met you." Liu Linfeng burst into tears upon entering and seeing Ning Xuan sitting upright in a chair.

Although Ning Xuan was dressed as a woman, her sharp eyes and imposing aura made Liu Linfeng immediately recognize her.

When Ning Xuan was on the battlefield, she disguised herself as a man for convenience, using a made-up face with dark skin and scars. Later, after Yinglong awakened, she returned to her original skin color.

Therefore, even though Liu Linfeng had seen Ning Xuan's true face, he couldn't help but show a hint of amazement when he looked at Ning Xuan's excessively exquisite and beautiful face.

“You’ve always done a good job with the tasks I’ve assigned you. You said you had something to say in person. Is there something that you absolutely have to report to me in person?” Ning Xuan asked, frowning.

Liu Linfeng was a subordinate that Ning Xuan recruited on an S-class resource star in a peripheral star system when she ventured out alone. At the time, she only wanted to experience life on the interstellar battlefield and temper her combat power. Unexpectedly, she gained military merit and a group of loyal subordinates.

When Ning Xuan left the Edge Star Battlefield and returned to the Second Legion headquarters, Liu Linfeng and the others originally wanted to go with her, but Ning Xuan refused. She assigned each of them a task and asked them to secretly do things for her.

Over the past year, Liu Linfeng and others have completed the tasks assigned by Ning Xuan very well. With Ning Xuan's support, most of them have built up considerable influence in their respective fields and done a lot for Ning Xuan.

“General, I suspect our communications are being monitored. It seems someone has noticed we're working for you. A couple of days ago, one of my brothers urged everyone to come and see you. His behavior was very unusual, and I felt something was off. I investigated him secretly, and I discovered something strange. It seems he's been switched. I didn't dare disturb him, but since everyone is here to see you, I thought I'd report what I found out to you.” Liu Linfeng said with great concern.
