The Seventh Base

Chapter 859: Chapter 165: Crossing Planets to See You

When Elizabeth walked into the room, she saw Zero was there too.

So, they were already living together.

Not only Zero, but she also saw Mia and Elsa, and with Ye Qingdie, Elizabeth’s cold eyes glanced at Xu Mo. Although the gentleman was incredibly talented and gifted, he really was a scoundrel.

However, Xu Mo’s status on Byron Star was practically equivalent to that of the King of Byron Star.

The royalty of various planets, especially kings, having wives and concubines wasn’t unusual.

But as a woman, Elizabeth still longed for love where two people support each other, especially on planets with advanced civilizations, where aside from the royal family, most still practiced monogamy.

But if she and the gentleman were together? Would she be considered a concubine? That kind of supportive relationship didn’t seem to apply to her.

Elizabeth felt a sense of shame thinking about it, inwardly cursing herself. How could she have such thoughts?

As the proud Princess of Lucas Star, when did Princess Elizabeth ever have such humble ideas?

It was absurd.

“Princess Elizabeth, why have you come to Byron Star?” Xu Mo was a bit surprised.

“Byron Star released news, inviting people from various planets, and now many people have come to Byron Star.” Elizabeth said, still standing there without moving.

“Your Highness, please come and sit down for a chat.” Mia stood up with a gentle smile, sounding particularly friendly.

She glanced at Xu Mo, knowing it was all because of him.

But then again, who could blame him? Xu Mo was so outstanding that naturally, many people liked him.

Mia had watched Xu Mo’s growth all along. No one knew him better than she did. She wouldn’t interfere in Xu Mo’s romantic affairs, but she understood them as clearly as a mirror.

There was no need to say much about Zero, but Sister Butterfly and Princess Elizabeth also liked Xu Mo.

That guy would probably have a headache.

Elizabeth could feel the friendliness from Mia’s gaze, nodded slightly to her, then walked forward and sat across from Xu Mo. Zero was looking at her, without any emotion, just silently watching, which made Elizabeth feel very uneasy.

It felt just like guarding against a thief.

Outrageous.

Remembering the time when Zero had attacked her with a sword, Elizabeth felt even more displeased and said to Xu Mo, “After such a long time, how have you been?”

As her words fell, it seemed the temperature here dropped a little, and Xu Mo shivered.

Elizabeth was one who could stir up trouble…

“Pretty good, and what about Princess Elizabeth?” Xu Mo replied, shivering.

“I am also good, continuously studying at Lucas University. Now, graduation is not far away.” Elizabeth said, without realizing it, more than a year had passed.

But in fact, Elizabeth was not good at all. Her relationship with her family wasn’t very harmonious anymore, lacking the warmth from before, and she didn’t even want to go home much.

Xu Mo had also left Lucas University, and the days at school were rather boring. She could only go to the library to read books often. As for the matter of succession, Xu Mo had previously told her to wait.

But after this war, many things had changed.

“What about Ize and Carter? It’s been a long time since I last saw them,” Xu Mo asked.

“They are both well, just that the matters of Lucas Star are beyond their control. They have also come this time and asked me to convey to you that if the war ends, there might be room for maneuver in future matters.” Elizabeth explained. The Lucas Star Federation Government requested to cut off cooperation with the Blue Star Energy Technology Group. During wartime, the interstellar bank and the Aerospace Union could only cooperate.

“The war ends…” Xu Mo murmured, the key is, how would the war end?

Now, there were already irreconcilable contradictions between the Lucas Star Federation Government and Byron Star.

Just the matter of the Skywalker assassination had already completely broken their relationship.

And now, they’ve also confiscated the Blue Star Energy Technology Group.

“Will Byron Star really go to war with Lucas Star?” Elizabeth asked softly, this was what she least wanted to see.

“Elizabeth, actually, Lucas Star has already acted several times against the Blue Star Energy Technology Group and Byron Star.” Xu Mo stated.

Elizabeth was stunned and looked into Xu Mo’s eyes, knowing he was serious.

She just didn’t know.

“Actually, there’s a way to avoid conflict between Byron Star and Lucas Star,” Xu Mo said.

“What way?” Elizabeth asked.

“Princess Elizabeth ascending the throne, and the Lucas Star Federation Government having a revamp,” Xu Mo said. Of course, it was just talk; it was simply impossible to achieve.

King Richard’s age was just in his prime.

Elizabeth hadn’t even graduated, so how could she possibly ascend the throne? Only war could achieve that, breaking through Lucas Star, supporting a new government. That way, war couldn’t be avoided.

Or, Byron Star could become strong enough for Lucas Star to admit its faults voluntarily, dealing with King Richard and Field.

Upon hearing Xu Mo’s words, Elizabeth’s gaze dimmed. Previously she wanted to contend for the position of heir, but that was still the heir. Wanting to ascend to the throne was still many years away.

“Let’s talk about something else.” Elizabeth didn’t want to think about these matters.

“Okay.” Xu Mo nodded.

Beside them, Zero blinked.

“Shall I leave?” Zero’s crisp voice sounded, they seemed to be chatting happily.
