The large group of women who came were all women, and almost all of them were pure-blooded royals of the Bai family.
Speaking of which, it was because the Bai family's ability, White Moon Splendor, was often stimulated by women. Therefore, the person in charge of the Bai family was often a woman. It was a family where women were in charge.
The woman who spoke was standing in the middle of a group of orioles and swallows. She leaned on a walking stick and her back was bent. She looked very old and her pair of thick and black eyebrows were raised high, giving people a fierce feeling. This was the current second in command of the Bai family, Bai Rulian.
As the number two figure of the Bai family, Bai Rulian had always been known for being harsh, unyielding, and ruthless. Therefore, she could not stand the mixed-blood Qing Yueqiu.
At this time, when she heard Qing Yueqiu's cold words, she could not help but put on a stern face. In her heart, she became more and more displeased with this little girl who refused to change her name and acknowledge her ancestors.
She said coldly, "You're going to be married soon. Why can't you even learn a few rules? Now that you've come to the St. Germain family, if you continue to talk nonsense like this, won't you be embarrassing our Bai family? Don't bring those dirty habits of yours from Earth with you. "
Qingyue Qiu looked at the people present. Some were jealous, some were angry, some were indifferent, and some were gloating. She saw them all. When she heard Bai Rulian's words, she lowered her head and did not speak. It seemed that she did not want to refute the other party.
Hearing her attitude, Bai Rulian's eyebrows twitched, and the anger in her heart grew. She had been on Titan Star for more than 300 years, and it had been a long time since she had seen a young person who did not give her face like this.
However, she was shrewd after all, so she did not directly explode. Instead, she sneered, gritted her teeth, and said, "Girl, don't let your imagination run wild. I know you grew up on Earth and don't know any rules.
But since you've come to the Bai family, don't bring up those messy things from Earth and make a fool of yourself.
I'm not afraid to tell you that Lord Gonasos has already sent people to Earth to deal with some loose ends, so that you don't have to think about it all day.
That kid is called Zuo Zhicheng, right? "
It turned out that Qing Yueqiu was worried about the situation on Earth in the past. She had asked people to find out about the Qingyue Family and Zuo Zhicheng. As time went by, people with discerning eyes naturally knew that she had deep feelings for the young man she met on Earth.
However, the Bai family was one of the twelve royal families on the Titan Star, a behemoth that could compete with the San Ligue family. How could they allow their young lady to have a relationship with a poor boy from Earth? Therefore, they completely cut off Qing Yueqiu's connection with Earth.
In their opinion, the Titan Star was many times more advanced than Earth. It was like the difference between a city and a ravine. Qing Yueqiu had cultivated eight lifetimes of good fortune to be able to come here. After a few years, she would be dazzled and forget everything that happened on Earth.
However, after a few years, Qing Yueqiu only stayed in the Mingyue Palace to cultivate and study silently. She neither attended any gatherings nor socialized with anyone. It was as if she had closed her entire heart. Her originally cold heart seemed to have become as cold as a ten-thousand-year-old iceberg, becoming even colder.
As a result, the other sisters of the Bai family became more and more estranged from her. Originally, Qing Yueqiu's peerless beauty was the easiest to arouse the jealousy of other women. After being so unsociable, she naturally made the other women of the Bai family hate her even more.
Bai Rulian's words were obviously to make Qing Yueqiu completely give up. Moreover, she was the one who instigated the San Ligue family to do this in the first place. She had always been brooding over the fact that the troops that brought Qing Yueqiu back then did not clean up the traces on Earth, leaving a mark of shame on the Bai family.
As soon as she finished speaking, Qing Yueqiu looked at her coldly, as if there was something hidden in her eyes.
Bai Rulian frowned, but since the other party did not talk back, she only took it as the other party had lowered her head. She snorted coldly and continued, "How powerful is Lord Gonarsos? Since you want to be his woman, you should know your place and do your duty as a wife. Don't think about nonsense all day long.
Don't learn from your mother and end up with a wild man from Earth and do some shady things. "
Bai Shirou hurriedly advised, "Great-grandmother, Xiao Yue is also outspoken. Don't be angry."
Bai Rulian curled her lips and said, "Hmph, the daughter is not like the daughter, and the bride is not like the bride." Clearly, she was scolding both Qing Yueqiu and her mother.
With Bai Rulian's authority in the Bai family, even if she was indirectly scolding the locust tree, of course, no one would openly oppose her.
She looked at Qing Yueqiu's lowered head and did not say anything. She only thought that the other party had completely given up. However, when she looked at the other party's flawless face, she felt a wave of anger.
She then ordered the women on the side, "Alright, tomorrow is the big wedding. Keep an eye on it. If anything happens, I will hold you responsible …"
…
Night, outside the Bright Moon Palace.
Bai Shirou looked in the direction of the roof of the Bright Moon Palace. Looking at the slender figure that seemed like it would break at any time, she sighed deeply.
Twenty years ago, when she first saw the girl, although the other party was her sister's daughter, she could not help but feel jealous of the almost perfect face.
But in the past twenty years, watching the other party slowly wither in her eyes, Bai Shirou could not help but feel melancholy in her heart.
In the beginning, Qing Yueqiu would still leave the Bright Moon Palace and stroll around the Imperial City. Looking at the people coming and going, and looking at the mountains and lakes.
Everyone who saw Qing Yueqiu could not help but exclaim. That was a woman who was so beautiful that it was not human. Every movement, every expression, carried a sense of beauty that made people feel suffocated.
But the sadness in her eyes could not help but make people's hearts soften.
Ever since all contact with Earth was cut off, Qing Yueqiu almost never left the house. She no longer took the initiative to talk to anyone. She only cleaned the room, ate, and cultivated. Sometimes she stood on the roof, sometimes she stood on the windowsill, and sometimes she looked at the distant sky.
Her sense of existence became weaker and weaker, and her body became colder and colder. It was as if she could turn into a real statue at any time.
If it was not for Gonasos showing that he coveted her, most of the Bai family would have forgotten about this perfect yet frail girl.
After hearing Bai Rulian's words today, she didn't say a word. She was like a flawless doll, allowing the people around her to play with her as they pleased.
There was nothing sadder than a dead heart. That was the feeling she gave people now.
Bai Shirou let out another deep sigh. She really couldn't bear to see this elf-like woman become thinner day by day. She might even die. However, Gonasos still had her family's arrangements. She was powerless to do anything about it.
She could only silently say to the maid beside her, "Watch the young miss carefully. If there are any strange movements, report to me at any time."
She silently said in her heart, "Tomorrow is the big wedding. I only hope … Gonasos will treat her better in the future."
On the other side, on the space station above the Titan Imperial City, a spaceship was slowly entering the space port.
Half an hour later, Uplos stepped onto the ground, feeling a little uncomfortable. Behind him was Zuo Qingcang, who had disguised himself as Na Wei.
During the fifteen hours of the journey, he had listened to Upros tell him everything he knew about the Titan Star.
Therefore, Zuo Qingcang finally had a comprehensive understanding of the Titan Star.
However, he still needed to do some investigation to find out how powerful the so-called pure-blooded royal family was. Of course, what he was most concerned about was the so-called Titan King, Gonasos. Since he cultivated the Life Cluster, had he reached the stage of Golden Bridge? Did he already possess quantum senses?
However, Zuo Qingcang naturally could not be like ordinary people who dilly-dallied to gather information. After arriving at the Titan Star through the spaceship and passing through the security check, he did not have to worry about the Titans' suspicions. In an instant, he spread out his True Essence fluctuations.
Within a range of more than three thousand kilometers, he could observe dozens of cities, big and small. He already had a general understanding of the Titans' strength.
However, as he continued to scan the information, at the next moment, Zuo Qingcang's countenance changed slightly. Uplos felt a pain in his head and fainted, while Zuo Qingcang had disappeared.
