Chapter 445 Chen Xing and Statue Mission 2 (1/2)
”Hiss!”
The crowd inhaled deeply and looked at Han Xiao in disbelief and envy. The people around Han Xiao instantly backed off and isolated him, making him extremely conspicuous.
”Who is this guy? What is his relationship with Chen Xing?”
”Why is he chosen?”
”What a lucky guy.”
Han Xiao nodded without changing expression and said, ”Sure.”
”Please follow me.”
Chen Xing turned around, and Han Xiao followed behind the group. Chen Xing's assistant contacted the organizers, and the government found Han Xiao's identity very quickly. It turned out that he was a mercenary who had worked with them before and belonged to Floating Dragon. Thus, he was trustworthy. Although it was not very suitable to let a mercenary into the venue, for the sake of giving Chen Xing face and the fact that Han Xiao had no negative background, they agreed to let him in.
They walked through the path and boarded the celebration spaceship. Sylvia was completely stunned on the way, unable to understand what was happening and dumbfounded at the fact that she had entered the celebration venue, which she had dreamed of for years, so easily. When she finally regained consciousness, she hastily pulled Han Xiao's shirt and said, ”You really did it!”
”From what I know about you, your memory isn't that bad. Maybe I should give you more books to train it.” Han Xiao stared at Chen Xing's back.
”I—I thought you were lying…” Sylvia did not know what to say. It had happened exactly as Han Xiao had said—they were invited onto the ship. However, she never would have thought that the person inviting them would be Chen Xing, and it looked like it was a last-minute decision.
She suppressed her excitement and asked with anticipation, ”How did you do it?”
”No crowd can cover up my attractiveness.” Han Xiao gave a perfunctory response.
The real reason, of course, was the [Mysterious Statue] that Han Xiao had with him. Chen Xing had a special sense toward the Psychic Current of the statue. As long as it was within a certain distance, he would definitely notice it. Hence, Han Xiao had known that Chen Xing would invite him onto the ship.
…
After everyone boarded, the various large cities on the main planet lit fireworks as Wine and Celebration took off and circled around the main planet. The spaceship was covered in streams of colorful lights, and the people on the surface could see the enormous spaceship when they looked up.
Han Xiao was arranged to be in the VIP room of Chen Xing's team. Chen Xing did not speak to him immediately but went to prepare for the show. He told his assistant that if Han Xiao asked why he was invited, tell him that he would meet him privately after the celebration.
However, the assistant waited and waited, yet Han Xiao did not express any curiosity. He closed his eyes and rested from the moment that he entered the room like he was completely uninterested in knowing why he had been invited. After waiting for a long time without receiving any response, the assistant had no choice but to speak first.
”Your… Excellency, Chen Xing wanted to talk to you after the celebration ends. Please wait patiently and enjoy the show.”
”Hmm.” Han Xiao gave a very short reply.
He knew Chen Xing extremely well, so he had no intention of asking anything.
After some time, the audience was all seated. The roof suddenly opened, showing the universe full of stars. A thick energy shield blocked the vacuum. This was the center of the spaceship, and it was an enormous outdoor stage!
The VIP rooms shook slightly as they slowly rose and hovered in midair, slanting toward the stage at forty-five degrees. One side of the wall was a transparent screen looking down at the entire stage. The VIP rooms had gravitational stabilizers equipped, so although the rooms were slanted, the people inside were sitting firmly in their chairs. There were more than two hundred VIP rooms like this, and they were like balloons floating above the stage.
With the magnificent and beautiful light starting to shine from the stage, an enormous performance commenced.
At the same time, the countless citizens of New Phylen were watching this scene from their devices. It was a celebration shared by hundreds of billions of people.
Sylvia was completely astounded by such a magnificent view. This was her first time being at the scene and attending the celebration in person.
She had begged her father many times, but she had always been rejected. Yet, Han Xiao had done what her father did not do—fulfilled her dream.
Filled with complex emotions, Sylvia turned her head and looked at Han Xiao.
This person was her enemy, her savior, her creditor, and her teacher…
Noticing her sight, Han Xiao said calmly, ”What?”
”Nothing, Tea…” Sylvia curled her lips. ”Oldfor visiting.
The celebration performance continued. Han Xiao was not a New Phylen citizen, so he was not very interested in the ceremonies, but the performance was indeed exciting. When it came to the last and most anticipated performance, the performer was indeed Chen Xing.
All eyes were on Chen Xing. On the enormous stage, where he stood was the only place that had light; everywhere else was dark. Yet, just by standing there, he made people feel he had occupied the entire stage. The whole place was silent.
The first note flew out from under Chen Xing's veil—ethereal, elegant, and pure—like the voice from heaven. Her voice seemed to have created a wave of time, bringing the audience back to the ancient times, looking up at the first dawn between darkness and night, watching the first star glowing in a dim yet firm light.
Before the performance, the whole audience had turned off their translators, not allowing them to stand in the way of enjoying such a pure voice. Even though they could not understand what the lyrics meant, the immensity of the voice captured every one of their hearts. The audience felt like countless images flashed past before their eyes, the origin and the end of a star, and the endless cycle of life.
Along with his singing, the light on the stage started to expand. When he reached his highest note, the light also spread over the entire stage.
The audiences felt a shiver from the depths of their soul that flew into their mind.
”What a beautiful voice…” Sylvia was completely immersed in the song.
Han Xiao's eyes sparkled.
A voice that included such strong Psychic power was indeed very influential.
”The money spent on organizing such a huge performance is enough to buy so many spaceships. What a waste…”
