Chapter 1327 Navigation

Half a day later, a light green force field rolled up a set of clothes and brought it into the air. Han Xiao reached out and put it on. He rubbed his tired waist, came before a mirror, and rubbed his cheeks.

Ames untied her hair and ran her fingers through it, letting her black hair flow down like a waterfall. She opened the fridge with her force field and took out a half-finished bottle of hard liquor. She poured it into two glasses and walked to Han Xiao’s side. She sat on the edge of the table and handed one glass to Han Xiao with a smile.

“Have a drink?”

Hearing this, Han Xiao looked at her and took a sip of the wine. Ames smiled, tidying Han Xiao’s clothes and straightening his collar.

“You’ve been quite busy recently. I tried to look for you some time ago, but I couldn’t reach you.”

“When am I not busy?”

Han Xiao licked his lips and tasted the wine; the sweet and cold taste filled his mouth.

Ames took a sip of wine elegantly and said with a teasing tone, “Be honest, where did you go a few days ago? Did you go to the secondary dimensions with someone else?”.

“Nonsense. I’ve only entered the secondary dimension with you. At most, I’ll add Kasuyi.” Han Xiao finished the wine in one gulp, put down the glass, and casually combed his hair with his fingers.

Ames shook her cup and said with a smile, “You can be considered successful now. You’ve won independence for the Beyond Grade A Association. The three Universal Civilizations have acknowledged your identity once again. Most of the goals set by the association are completed. You can relax now, right?”

“It’s still early. It’s not the time to relax yet.”

“Why? Are you still not satisfied and want to continue climbing up?” Ames raised her brows. “You’re already one of the top big shots in the universe. It’s a little dangerous for you to continue climbing up. Could it be that you want to steal the position of the rulers of the three Universal Civilizations?”

“You’re thinking too much. I’m not referring to that but some other things. There’s still a huge threat that hasn’t been resolved, but I can’t tell you yet.”

Han Xiao glanced at her helplessly. He did not reveal too much information about the World Tree, not even to those close to him.

“Alright, you always have big plans anyway… but you won’t be so busy all the time. You’ll have to stop sometime.”

“If this matter can be resolved successfully, I should be able to rest for a long time.”

“Then I’ll wait. Don’t go back on your word.” Ames smiled.

“We’ll see how it goes. If I am free, I’ll spend more time with you.”

Han Xiao casually chatted for a while and was about to change into a King suit and leave when his communicator suddenly rang.

When he took it out, Han Xiao was delighted to see that it was Aesop. “Heh, it’s the old man. His timing is really accurate.”

Ames looked over and said indifferently, “He must have called you because the earthquakes stopped.”

“Do you want to come along?” Han Xiao waved his communicator.

“He’s looking for you, not me. He probably has some prophecy to talk to you about, so I won’t be going. I still have to see Hila and the others later. Go see the old man yourself. I’m going to take a shower.”

Ames waved her hand lazily and patted Han Xiao’s butt before leaving the room.

Han Xiao shook his head and left Dragon Emperor Palace. He arrived at Aesop’s house with ease and was quickly welcomed in by the AI butler.

The moment he entered, he saw Aesop sitting on the sofa and raising his eyebrows at him.

“You’re out?”

“You’re asking the obvious.”

Han Xiao curled his lips, picked up a piece of fruit from the fruit plate on the table, and threw it into his mouth. He sat on the sofa beside Aesop, placed one arm on the back of the chair, crossed his legs, and casually asked, “Why’d you call me?” “Don’t make so much noise next time.” Aesop sounded helpless. “It’s not the first time. When did you start to care so much?” Han Xiao looked at him strangely.

“I’m saying pay attention to the impact it causes. Every time you guys are done, the logistics department has to repair it. They even thought that Ames was training, and they’ve complained to me more than once. They told me to tell her not to keep causing trouble for Floating Dragon.”

Aesop shook his head.

He knew that the relationship between Han Xiao and Ames had been going on for a very long time. Although Ames was his adopted daughter in name, he knew that this kind of private matter had nothing to do with him, so he did not interfere nor did he have the ability to. Furthermore, Black Star had always satisfied him.

As an Ancient One with a rich romantic history, Aesop was quite open-minded in this respect, and he was not surprised at all that Ames had hooked up with Black Star. In his eyes, the two adults of the galactic era had known each other for close to a hundred years, and their statuses were on the same level. They had experienced many things together and found each other pleasing to the eye. Sleeping on the same bed was just a matter of time.

As for the fact that the two of them were not married, it was not a big deal in Aesop’s eyes. The old marriage system had gone out of fashion a few thousand years ago. Galactic races had long lifespans, and they lived colorful lives. Lifetime monogamy was a backward system that many galactic civilizations had eliminated. Now, the mainstream marriage contract type was usually the legal polygamy system, as well as contracted monogamy system. However, no matter which type of marriage it was, it was no longer a necessity for galactic residents. Due to the strong population circulation, the identity registration of most galactic civilizations had long been simplified. The household registration was very simple, and many galactic residents raised their offspring before marriage. The civilization gave them high subsidies and even built a public foster home.
