Galaxy Domination Guide-Chapter 662 - 648 Cute

Bai Zhongqi stood there, momentarily taken aback. To be honest, the Chancellor seldom paid much attention to the affairs on the surface of the planet. Bai had felt as though he had ascended to the heavens and had never come down. The world that Azure Planet was part of, he didn't know how the Pilgrim had created it, but he was certain it had a significant connection to him.

From the technological products and social landscape, he estimated that the world's technological level was about that of the late twentieth century. Some places might be stronger, while others weaker. However, judging by the fashion, there was a stronger inclination toward retro styles. The clothing of the gentlemen and the ladies seemed more reminiscent of the first half of the twentieth century.

At this moment, Bai Zhongqi couldn't help but ponder over a question, "If this world was indeed a fishbowl created by the Pilgrim to strangle me, then why go through all the trouble of creating a complete planet and billions of people? Besides that idiot Yongxi, is it really believable that the Pilgrim hasn't arranged for anyone else to carry out an assassination in this tub? But if there were others, they should have shown up when I severely wounded Yongxi. The fact that they didn't might mean that the Pilgrim can only accommodate one person in this fishbowl."

Bai Zhongqi couldn't understand these questions, but if it was really only Yongxi, that truly didn't frighten him. Yongxi, wielding the Sword with the Red Eye, was close to the level of a Star Warrior master, yet his experience paled in comparison to Bai Zhongqi's. If Bai could take him down once, he could do it a second time.

Especially now that Bai Zhongqi knew he might face an assassination at any time, he would be even more cautious and vigilant.

"There must be many secrets on this planet that I need to uncover bit by bit."

While contemplating his own matters, he casually pulled out the Homeland Stone that he always carried in his pocket. Now that the Supreme Command had turned into a game-like state, he couldn't utilize any power, but the Homeland Stone was still at his disposal. Ever since he had moved Spratly Island out of the Homeland Stone, Bai Zhongqi had been studying its mechanisms.

He could now use his own Star Energy to manipulate the Homeland Stone's construction functions. However, to build warships, Atomic Substance Construction, Bionic Humans, and other highly technical items, he would need a tremendous amount of Star Energy and a lot of time. As he was constantly under the threat of assassination from Yongxi, he couldn't take that risk.

How to use the Homeland Stone was something he still needed to consider.

But as for Miss Zhang, she seemed to quite enjoy chatting with a stranger. Although naive, she was not foolish; Bai Zhongqi didn't seem like a bad person, and she could sense a faint noble aura from him, evidently the result of handling power for a long time and living in luxury.

Zhang Yingxi, like a canary living in a cage, had no friends and spent much time covertly reading romance novels brought by her cousin, from ancient scholar-beauty tales to contemporary noble feuds, utterly engrossed. She too had fantasized about meeting a handsome and witty man of high aspirations, or a chivalrous knight who roamed the lands righting wrongs.

Watching Bai Zhongqi standing there in deep thought, Zhang Yingxi couldn't help but let her imagination run wild, and her face began to flush slightly.

"All right, thank you for the information, Miss Zhang. I won't stay any longer and will take my leave now," Bai Zhongqi, having made up his mind, bade farewell to Zhang Yingxi.

Zhang Yingxi felt a faint disappointment and asked, "Where will you go, and will you come back to talk to me?"

Bai Zhongqi scratched his head and replied, "I don't know where I'm going, just out for a walk, I guess. This place is new to me; I need to see it. As for returning... uh, we'll meet again if fate allows."

Zhang Yingxi's disappointment turned into deep sadness, her young face looked rather pitiful.

Bai Zhongqi couldn't resist and said, "Uh, I'll come back to talk to you later."

This statement was blurted out on an inexplicable impulse, and Bai Zhongqi himself didn't know why he had said it. He regretted it as soon as the words left his mouth.

Zhang Yingxi's mood instantly lifted. She extended her pinky finger, her charming eyes twinkling, and said, "Promise, okay?"

Bai Zhongqi had no choice but to stretch out his finger and gently tug the jade-like, tender finger of the girl. The Chancellor was very close to this adorable sister, so much so that he could clearly see the faint blush spreading across her face and even feel the girl's heartbeat accelerate due to excitement.

"What kind of life could restrain such a cute girl like this?" Bai Zhongqi couldn't help but wonder in his mind, feeling some pity for Zhang Yingxi, naturally cute.

Zhang Yingxi asked him, "Do you have a place to stay? You're from outside, aren't you?"

Bai Zhongqi shook his head, "Anywhere is fine for me to stay."

"That won't do, sleeping on the street would mean you're homeless, that would be so pitiful. Anyway, you can come and go from the State Governor's Mansion freely, right? You can sleep in my room, but you can't sneak peeks at me. We can take turns sleeping in the bed, and the other person can sleep on the sofa. Anyway, my sofa is quite comfy, so it won't be too uncomfortable."

Bai Zhongqi couldn't help but smile, feeling like he had become a little stray dog that the sister had found and adored, afraid she might lose sight of it in the blink of an eye.

Bai Zhongqi pointed to her computer and said, "I'll need to use it, so I'll come back to you."

Zhang Yingxi's eyes, watery as if hiding stars, nodded vigorously with a sound of affirmation.

Then Bai Zhongqi was gone.

Zhang Yingxi looked towards the now empty windowsill, feeling a sense of loss, yet filled with many more yearnings. She picked up a pillow, sat by the window and foolishly smiled.

Bai Zhongqi now found himself five hundred meters in the sky, looking down at the city. Li'an City was the capital of Qing State, which according to Miss Zhang, was also the largest city in the state aside from White Island. Bai Zhongqi was somewhat surprised to find that the city looked very different from the modern cities he had imagined.

There were hardly any high-rise buildings here, and many old buildings with historical charm were preserved within the city. The streets and alleys of the city were full of local atmosphere, and aside from a few main roads, the city streets were quite narrow, and traffic flow was not too heavy. In the suburbs of the city, there were rows of detached residential areas, many of which looked quite Chinese, like places where slightly wealthier people lived. Overall, Bai Zhongqi felt that this place had an old-fashioned vibe but lacked a sense of progress.

Back on the streets, Bai Zhongqi did not stand out too much in the crowd. People dressed quite plainly, with very old-fashioned shirts and trousers. There were also some women wearing qipaos on the street. This also surprised Bai Zhongqi, because clearly Eastern Land's history had never seen an empire established by Tartary.

At the street corner, Bai Zhongqi saw two foreign Caucasians who seemed to be tourists here, enthusiastically photographing red-wall green-tile Chinese buildings with their cameras. Unexpectedly to Bai Zhongqi, pedestrians on the street seemed somewhat afraid of these two foreigners, keeping a considerable distance.

A child, only five or six years old, looked curiously at the two westerners, getting a little closer. Immediately, his guardian yanked him away, scolding, "Are you looking for death, you little devil? If you provoke the foreign adults, no one can save you even if you lose your life."

Saying this, the guardian angiily hit the child, and the two westerners, seeing this, laughed and pointed as if watching a group of monkeys.

The child's guardian bowed and gestured to the two westerners before pulling the child away.

Bai Zhongqi's brow furrowed.
