Gu Liang’s smile vanished in an instant, replaced by a bone-chilling, murderous glare. “Send you back? Do you have any idea how many lives we sacrificed and the extent of our losses to bring you out?”

Zhu Fei was taken aback, blurting out without thinking, “How many?”

“Just one!”

Gu Liang’s outburst made Zhu Fei jump. Realizing that his idea of heavy loss was based on the death of a single person, she couldn’t help but roll her eyes in disbelief.

“You think I’m overreacting?” Gu Liang stared at her, as though he could decipher her thoughts. “Do you even comprehend the fact that he alone is equivalent to an entire regiment of your alliance? My brother was destined to become the youngest imperial general in history, but to save you, he masqueraded as an interstellar space pirate and fell into the alliance’s clutches. Locked up in your B16 prison, he was ultimately slain by the despicable

Alliance military neurotoxin during his escape!”

“If this person you speak of is truly so formidable, how could he be so easily killed?” Zhu Fei suspected that Gu Liang was fabricating the story. Unfazed by the pain of losing his family, she impulsively stabbed him in the heart.

Gu Liang glared at Zhu Fei with intensity, his eyes turning bloodshot from anger. “You vile member of the Alliance, it was you who planted the neurotoxin in the restraints. Once you step beyond a 30-meter radius from the prison area, the neurotoxin will be instantly injected into your system!”

Gu Liang’s menacing gaze made Zhu Fei fear for her life, regretting her thoughtless words. “I… I’m the daughter of your king. You can’t look at me like that!”

Zhu Fei screamed in terror and sought refuge behind Cologne.

“If you can’t alleviate the suffering caused by the psychic upheaval for the people of the Empire, I’ll make you my brother’s plaything, a ‘little mouse’!”

With those final words, Gu Liang departed without glancing back. Only Zhu Fei, trembling as she clung to Cologne’s sleeve, and Cologne, wearing a compassionate expression, remained.

Zhu Fei lifted her head, gazing cautiously at the imposing figure standing before her. Despite his aristocratic gestures and his claim that she was the esteemed princess of the empire, she couldn’t shake the feeling that he offered her no protection after the mistreatment she endured from Gu Liang moments ago. He maintained a gentle smile, silently observing from the sidelines.

It was only then that Zhu Fei realized she was nothing more than a pawn in the empire’s grand scheme since the moment she was brought aboard this spaceship. A mere instrument used by the empire’s king to quell the unrest festering within its citizens. Whether she liked it or not, her survival depended on obediently following his every command.

As Zhu Fei’s initial panic gave way to resignation and confusion, Cologne noticed the transformation and addressed her with utmost respect. “My esteemed princess, now that you have embraced your role, I implore you to rest. We shall return to the empire shortly. His Majesty has prepared a grand ceremony in your honor, and the entire populace eagerly awaits your triumphant return. ”

After Cologne departed, Zhu Fei slumped weakly onto the bed, gazing out through the narrow window at the vast expanse of the universe. It mirrored her own uncertain future—intimidating and enigmatic.

For the second time, Zhu Fei, once filled with arrogance, found herself consumed by fear and helplessness. The first instance being when she was unjustly implicated in the fabricated scandal involving Wei Xin and the manipulated food live-stream.

These thoughts inevitably led her to Liao Ning, the woman who had abruptly appeared and effortlessly stolen the glory Zhu Fei had toiled years to achieve in a matter of months. Indignation welled up within her—a fiery desire to reclaim her honor and trample Liao Ning beneath her feet.

Now, presented with an olive branch from the empire, an opportunity had emerged to reshape her fate. She had to make the empire’s king see her in a different light, harness the empire’s power to crush Liao Ning, and force her to beg for mercy.

In the year 887 of the Empire Calendar, the princess of royal lineage returned to her homeland. Welcomed with opulent gifts by the king himself, she was bestowed the title of “Dawn.” The king envisioned her arrival as a means for the empire to overcome the turmoil plaguing their collective mental strength. Additionally, it would free them from the Interstellar Alliance’s monopoly on mental strength potions, a restriction hindering the empire’s economic progress..
