The smoke-filled battlefield was never short of miracles. However, in this era, the strongest combat power of the Federation was undoubtedly the most famous of them all. No one had ever seen his true face, but he and that mysterious black mecha had already become the nightmare of many people on the battlefield.
There was an unwritten rule in the vast universe that if one encountered that mysterious black mecha, running away without a fight was not considered a violation of the rules of war, because no one could defeat that person. This was a tacit agreement of everyone.
The military academy was the cradle of outstanding generals, but no one had ever heard of any military academy producing such a heaven-defying student. Therefore, many people suspected that the so-called strongest combat power of the Federation was actually just a cover. This person's true face was actually a new weapon developed by the Federation. Because the method of creation violated the basic laws of the universe, his identity had never been revealed.
Regarding this kind of nonsense, the Federation government had never stood up to refute the rumors. This caused those who made wild guesses to gradually quiet down.
A few years ago, the respected Old Marshal Xi Zhengtao of the Federation had stepped down. Before he left, he recommended his adopted son as his successor. For a time, the upper echelons of the military were in an uproar, mainly divided into two factions.
Old Marshal Xi's people supported Xi Ye and advocated that the capable should be in charge. Xi Ye had been fighting on the battlefield since he was a teenager and had never tasted defeat. No one was more suitable to lead the military than him. The other faction believed that Xi Ye's bloodline was too dangerous and that the consequences would be unimaginable if there was a mutation, so they firmly opposed it.
Later, someone proposed a compromise. The three generals who had outstanding military achievements at the time would be promoted to Marshal together, and together with Xi Ye, they would become the Four Marshals of the Federation. They would restrict each other to achieve a certain balance.
Although they had the advantage in numbers, those in the know knew very well that the three Old Marshals were mainly there to supervise. The person who really made the decisions was still Xi Ye.
After Xi Zhengtao stepped down, Xi Ye had the opportunity to walk in front of people, but he flatly refused. The reason was simple — he felt that it was too troublesome.
The Zsai people's eccentric personality had long been ingrained in people's hearts. Although the old guys in the military were dissatisfied, they would not make things difficult for him over such a small matter. As long as he could fight and continue to expand the territory of the Federation, everything else was up to him.
However, from the moment he decided to personally visit the Empire's Capital Star, it meant that his period of seclusion was over. Everything would change.

Because of this man's sudden appearance, the lively banquet instantly became chaotic. No one knew why the leader of the Federation's Four Marshals, Marshal Xi, would appear here.
Someone who didn't know asked quietly, "Who is that person? Why is everyone so afraid of him?"
The person beside him looked at him like he was an idiot and said, "You haven't seen the news in the past two days, right? The strongest person in the history of the Federation, the fourth marshal of the man-made weapons, until yesterday, no one knew what he looked like. You should understand now."
The man covered his mouth in surprise and stammered, "Could it be, could it be Marshal Xi …"
"Wasn't Xi Shuai still on the Imperial Capital Star yesterday? It would take at least a day to travel from the Imperial Capital Star to the Main Star. How did he manage to return so quickly?"
"Rumor has it that the speed of Marshal Xi's black armor is more than ten times that of an ordinary spaceship. It seems to be true."
"But why would he come here …"
Huo Sini, who was standing in the crowd, clenched her fists. This man's target was obviously her son. No matter how much she tried to stop him, they still got together. Just like how she had done back then, she had done everything for love.
The Zsai people, the Zsai people who had the power to destroy everything. Her son just had to fall in love with such a monster, and she was powerless to stop it.
Now, she finally understood her father's helplessness because no matter how she tried to dissuade him, the child would only treat her as an obstacle in his pursuit of happiness. Because he was young, he was fearless.
Su Yang's father held his wife's shoulder and whispered in her ear, "You have to believe in our son."
Huo Sini smiled bitterly. If it had been before Su Yang's accident, she might have been able to accept this relationship calmly. However, after seeing her son's life hanging by a thread and the child almost disappearing in front of her, that kind of fear had been branded in the bottom of her heart. How could she not be worried and afraid?
She said, "Does my opinion still matter now? This child has already grown up."
The obedient child who used to only obey his parents now had his own ideas. He no longer relied on his family, but had become independent and had his own pride.
No matter how unwilling she was, she had to let go.
Su Yang looked at the man walking towards him and was still a little dazed. Wasn't this man still on a friendly visit on the Capital Star yesterday? How did he come back to the Main Planet in the blink of an eye? Could it be that he could teleport?
However, this was not important. He threw down the wine glass in his hand and strode towards the man. His head hit the man's chest directly. His head didn't hurt anyone, but his own head turned red first.
Xi Ye took the opportunity to grab his waist and rub his head. He smiled and said, "Why are you so naughty?"
Su Yang's head was dizzy. He said angrily, "You said you would come back to see me tonight. In a few minutes, it won't be tonight anymore. It will be tomorrow night. This is your punishment for being late!"
This accusation could be said to be very unreasonable. Xi Yi was still on the main planet when he had chatted with him in the early hours of the morning. He had rushed to the capital planet at night and rushed back after finishing his business. It was a miracle that he could make it back in time.
Xi Ye wasn't angry. Instead, he explained seriously, "After I came back, I went to your house first and found that you weren't there. I saw the invitation on the table, so I came here."
In other words, he definitely made it back on time.
Su Yang couldn't help but smile. He whispered, "Then, then I'll forgive you this time." In fact, he wasn't angry. He was just acting cute out of habit.
