The central square of District Seven had long been cleared out, with several energy cordons set up around the perimeter.
Lei Zhan wore a crisp general's uniform. The director of District Seven stood beside him. Both men wore solemn expressions, occasionally glancing up at the sky, not even daring to breathe too loudly.
The surrounding citizens gathered far outside the cordon, whispering among themselves:
"I heard a special envoy from the Core Starfield is coming? Is it true?"
"Of course it's true! A guy known by a friend of a friend of my cousin's second uncle's third grand-uncle works in the Federation!"
"The Core Starfield... That's a legendary place. I wonder what they look like? We're all humans, it's not like they can have an extra mouth, right?"
"Don't talk nonsense! People from the Core Starfield look down on us folks from the Frontier Starfields the most. If they hear you, you'll be in for it."
Lin Xi stood beside Ye Chuan. "Mr. Ye, whatever you do, please don't get into a conflict with the special envoy later. The people from the Core Starfield control the resource distribution for all our Frontier Starfields. If we offend them, our lives will be very difficult from now on."
"Oh," Ye Chuan replied absentmindedly.
Lin Xi: "..."
Before she could say anything else, the sky suddenly darkened.
The originally clear blue sky seemed to be torn open by an invisible giant hand.
Pale gold spatial ripples undulated in mid-air, forming a massive stargate with a diameter of ten thousand meters.
Inside the stargate flowed a dazzling galaxy, with countless stars slowly rotating within it. It was breathtakingly beautiful.
In the next second, a pure white aircraft slowly sailed out from the stargate.
It didn't make a single sound, just hovering quietly in mid-air, yet it exuded a terrifying sense of oppression.
"Is... is this an aircraft from the Core Starfield?"
"It's so beautiful... Compared to our broken-down ships, it's like night and day."
Waves of awe rippled through the crowd. Everyone looked up, their eyes filled with reverence and longing.
The bottom of the aircraft slowly opened, and a pure white energy staircase extended downward.
A young man stepped onto the energy stairs and slowly walked down.
He wore a silver-white uniform. His hair was a rare silver-white, his eyes were a profound ice-blue, and his skin was a bluish hue that was almost translucent.
His body was enveloped in a faint golden particle field that completely isolated him from the dust and air. Even the ground beneath his feet automatically became spotlessly clean wherever he walked.
He didn't even spare a glance at Lei Zhan and the director waiting below to welcome him. He simply frowned slightly and spoke in a tone laced with obvious disgust:
"A lower civilization is just a lower civilization. You can't even handle basic air purification. The air is full of impurities and residual pollution. It's truly nauseating."
His voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.
The surrounding chatter instantly vanished. Everyone looked upset, but no one dared to voice their anger.
The smile on Lei Zhan's face froze. He took a deep breath, stepped forward, and said respectfully:
"Greetings, Lord Envoy. I am Lei Zhan, the supreme commander of the defense line in District Sixteen of the Blue Source Planet. These are the directors of our major districts. On behalf of all the people of the Blue Source Planet, we welcome your arrival."
"There's no need," the man waved his hand, his tone icy cold.
"I am not here to receive your welcome. My name is Kalen. I came this time to investigate the killing of the Outer God's Apostle."
His gaze swept over the crowd with a condescending scrutiny, as if looking at a group of uncivilized monkeys:
"Where is the person who killed the Outer God's Apostle? Tell him to come out and see me."
Lei Zhan quickly said, "Lord Envoy, this is Mr. Ye Chuan. He is the one who dealt with the Outer God's Apostle and closed the space-time rift."
Kalen looked in the direction Lei Zhan pointed, his gaze falling upon Ye Chuan.
When he saw Ye Chuan wearing ordinary casual clothes, leaning against a railing and scrolling on his terminal without even glancing at him, Kalen's frown deepened, his eyes filled with displeasure.
"You are Ye Chuan?" Kalen walked up to him. "Forget it, I'll forgive your insolence. Come with me."
Ye Chuan finally looked up and put his terminal away. "Go where?"
"The Core Starfield, the Supreme Court," Kalen said indifferently.
"You killed the Outer God's Apostle. You must return with me for an investigation and confess everything you know."
"Oh? Why should I go with you just because I killed the Outer God's Apostle?" Ye Chuan crossed his arms, his tone flat.
"Because an ordinary person simply cannot kill an Outer God's Apostle. I suspect there is something wrong with you," Kalen said flatly.
Ye Chuan twitched the corner of his mouth. "You're the one with a fucking problem. You look like a degraded version of an Avatar. I'm not going."
"Ava... not going?" Kalen scoffed, as if he had just heard the biggest joke in the world.
"A guy from a lower civilization kills an injured Outer God's Apostle, and you really think you're something special?"
"I'll give you three seconds to come with me immediately. Otherwise, I will arrest you on charges of obstructing Federation official duties."
Lin Xi quickly tugged at the corner of Ye Chuan's shirt, whispering, "Mr. Ye, don't be impulsive."
"No."
Kalen's face instantly darkened, a trace of killing intent flashing through his ice-blue eyes.
"You're courting death."
Kalen snorted coldly. He raised his hand and pulled out a palm-sized, silver-white sphere from his spatial belt.
The surface of the sphere was engraved with complex quantum runes. With a light press, it turned into a streak of light shooting toward Ye Chuan.
"Seal!"
The silver-white sphere instantly burst open above Ye Chuan's head, forming a perfect spherical energy shield that tightly trapped Ye Chuan inside before shrinking.
Pale blue quantum patterns flowed across the surface of the energy shield, constantly shrinking and compressing. It could instantly suppress all energy within the body. Even if an S-class superhuman was locked inside, they would be left entirely at the mercy of others.
A Poke Ball!!
"Mr. Ye!" Lin Xi exclaimed, wanting to rush forward, but Lei Zhan grabbed her and held her back.
Kalen clapped his hands, a smug smile appearing on his face:
"Native of a lower civilization, this quantum cage is forged from neutron star matter. It can withstand a quadrillion tons of impact force. Don't even think about coming out."
He held the ball, looking at Ye Chuan through the energy shield as if looking at a small animal. "Be a good boy and come back to the Core Starfield with me, and I might let you suffer a little less."
Ye Chuan stood inside the cage, reaching out to touch the freezing cold energy shield.
"Is this it?"
He gave it a light squeeze.
"Crack—"
The indestructible quantum cage shattered like glass, turning into countless silver-white fragments that scattered across the ground.
"What?!!!!"
Ye Chuan's figure grew back to its normal size. "Are you trying to catch me like a Pokemon? That's a bit interesting. Nice toy, but the quality is too poor."
After saying that, Ye Chuan brought out his World-Suppressing Banner. "I actually have an item for catching Pokemon too. Come on, let's try it on you."
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on...
