In the newly reclaimed half of the Biochemical Starfield, a group of original high-level insiders from the Orion Arm and the Biochemical Starfield were completely perplexed.

The source of their confusion was actually a member of the Jia family.

A message came from above, requesting large-scale device construction progress in this Starfield. But just as they confidently tried to proceed, a certain Lord stopped them.

This Lord was from the Jia family, one of the highest-ranking families around the Orion Arm.

Rumors in the military suggested that this Lord actually had deep connections with the Mosquito Ancestor, as his strength reached Lord Level. If he had no ties with the Mosquito Ancestor, then the people of Earth would’ve showcased him as an example to inspire all Earth people.

However, in truth, this Lord seemed non-existent to Earth people’s perceptions. No one knew that among Earth people, aside from Lord Jia Yan, there was another person who also reached Venerable Level.

Or perhaps it’s better said that Earth people subtly comprehend that neither Jia Yan, nor the current Jia family member leading them, are genuinely Earth people, making any comparative example meaningless.

Of course, this held little impact on organisms in the Biochemical Starfield since they were not Earth people.

What did impact them was this Jia family leader’s receipt but lack of sincere execution of the above orders.

"That Lord is truly excessive. We’re not saying we should do anything too severe with these Biochemical Starfield people, but if we don’t take any action, they absolutely won’t cooperate obediently."

"Exactly, that Lord seems like a pampered young master from a wealthy family, oblivious to how the real world operates."

"Ha, he plays the role of the good guy, while we play the bad guys? If worst comes to worst, we’ll refuse to act. If blame comes down, let’s see who takes responsibility."

"Uh... what you said just now, considering his powerful connections, we subordinates will definitely be the ones held responsible."

"True, indeed."

Several subordinates were extremely dissatisfied with the Earth man serving as Lord, or rather, the highest authority in their region of the starry sky.

Within a fleet in this part of the starry sky, the highest authority, the ’Jia family member’ they spoke of, was residing here.

Not wanting to disturb the residents outside, he abandoned the revelry on the planet and chose to lead a frugal life within the battleship.

Yet this was precisely the person whom the subordinates blamed.

"Lord Jia Rong, haven’t you heard what the soldiers are saying below? I’m about to explode with anger."

"Oh, what did they say? Are they accusing me of being too benevolent and considerate of the populace?"

"Indeed, they all believe you haven’t lived in the real world and don’t understand how things should be handled."

On the mothership of the fleet, a senior officer approached the ’Jia family member’ and complained about the subordinates’ remarks.

In simple terms, he was reporting them.

However, the ’Jia family member’ showed no signs of anger upon hearing his words, merely smiled mildly.

His appearance was that of a young man around twenty, and his smile carried an eccentric charm.

This youth was Jia Yan’s ’only offspring’ — Jia Rong.

Or more accurately, he was the son Jia Yan acquired without knowing.

At present, Jia Rong no longer resembled his father from childhood, shedding the plain appearance to exude a uniquely bizarre allure.

In reality, he was always handsome, merely styled by his mother to resemble Jia Yan’s typical Earth look, making him seem ordinary.

Now, having restored his inherent charisma, he bore a distinctive allure akin to that of his mother, developed over a long time and naturally revealing itself externally.

Of course, for aliens, it was hard to perceive qualities like charisma, and they couldn’t appreciate Earthly standards of beauty.

Jia Rong quietly sipped the red wine in his hand, enjoying his time off by indulging in whatever he pleased.

"I comprehend, at the core, I am not overly merciful. Everyone perceives things differently, but as the temporary leader of this Starfield, I won’t allow coerced compliance from the populace. Do you understand?"

"Uh, I understand."

The senior officer sighed, nodded, and withdrew.

Jia Rong well understood that this person deliberately spoke up because he was a chosen representative among many lower-level soldiers.

After the subordinate left, Jia Rong downed the remainder of his wine.

"Earth’s wine is still the best tasting, regrettably, this place is so far from Earth."

Jia Rong silently moved to the bridge of the captain’s room.

No one else was present; he simply viewed the surrounding scenery in quiet solitude.
