"Alright, that's it for now. You all go back to work. Xiao Xingyue, you stay."

After several minutes, only Ren Zhong and Xiao Xingyue remained in the hall.

Ren Zhong: "You have something to say."

Xiao Xingyue: "You never used to sit on stage like an Emperor, speaking to your brothers and sisters."

Ren Zhong: "Hmm."

"This attack on the Tracker Spaceship caused a lot of deaths, a lot. Although it seems like Li Yang's conspiracy on the surface, I feel, with your capabilities… you wouldn't be controlled by him. This shouldn't have happened."

Ren Zhong raised an eyebrow: "You have quite a bit of confidence in me. But evidence is needed when talking."

Xiao Xingyue: "No evidence, just intuition. A Telekinesis Master's intuition is stronger than a Mechanical Warrior's. I believe in myself. Besides, based on my past understanding of you, I originally thought all Telekinesis Masters would lose their jobs. You wouldn't need any secret inspection department to maintain your rule."

Ren Zhong leaned back, "Perhaps."

After five seconds of silence, he slowly said, "If there's nothing else, you can leave now. The 'Network' will assist you to set up the department at the fastest speed. Your former leadership in the Telekinesis Master institution will become your direct subordinates."

Xiao Xingyue lowered her head and slowly left the hall.

When she reached the passageway's entrance, she suddenly turned back.

Over there, Ren Zhong supported his chin with the back of his hand, leaning sideways on the chair, not knowing what he was thinking.

Vaguely, Xiao Xingyue seemed to have an illusion as if a pitch-black curtain descended from the sky, slowly engulfing him.

She unexpectedly felt that Ren Zhong seemed very lonely at this moment.

Suddenly, her pupils contracted slightly, realizing something, and a great fear surged in her heart.

Xiao Xingyue quickly boarded the 009 Water Drop spaceship and left the Tracker Spaceship for space.

She saw one after another small transport ships moving away from various warships and transport ships, most heading to Source Star, and some scattered to different space stations, Source Mars colonies, and other regions.

Xiao Xingyue looked at these small transport ships dragging large boxes behind them, then entered the management system to open the Star System Level Main Cannon control interface. She found that the star system level main cannon, which clearly had the slowest acceleration, hadn't preheated the engine to start moving. Instead, it remained in place, slowly aligning its barrels, directly aiming at Source Star.

She used her secret inspection department privileges to check the weapon inventory on Source Star and was horrified to find that Ren Zhong hadn't taken all the weapons of mass destruction away, leaving about one percent of the inventory at each base.

Xiao Xingyue abruptly covered her mouth, feeling thunderous shock in her mind.

This man is crazy!

He wants to destroy Source Star!

Not just that, he wants to annihilate the Source Star System!

But Yujin and Chen Hanyu will be left behind!

"What exactly are you going to do?"

Xiao Xingyue finally couldn't resist secretly contacting Ren Zhong to ask.

Ren Zhong answered serenely, "According to the Empire Law, to prevent the leakage of Empire technology, every Tracker colony must be cleared after a large migration."

"But..."

"There's no 'but.'

"I can't understand. There must be another way to bypass this regulation. You're betraying your original promise."

Ren Zhong scoffed, "I don't need to make promises to anyone. I am the law; my words are the final decision."

"You..." Xiao Xingyue felt a nameless anger surge inside her, almost roaring, "Knowing you for so many years, I trusted you so much. I even persuaded myself to become part of your career, betraying the Chairman and becoming your mole in the Promotion Association and Source Star Military Industry. I conducted psychological inspections for so many people, thinking I understood human nature enough. I thought I made the right decision, that I saw the difference between you and the Chairman. Now I know it's all a facade! You're more vicious than he is!"

Using the 'Network' vision provided by Sun Ai, Ren Zhong looked at the woman trembling with anger in the cockpit of the 009 Water Drop spaceship, his gaze calm, finally giving a bit of explanation, "Being in different positions, one receives different information and experiences inexpressible dilemmas. I can only tell you this is the only optimal solution I could find. I never expected to understand everyone, because I must be responsible for more people. Xiao Xingyue, you just discovered this matter first; there will be more people struggling to accept this reality. That's it; I'm tired."

After speaking, Ren Zhong cut off the communication and returned to the posture of resting his chin, turning his face away, focusing quietly on the projection of the Source Star System in the upper diagonal direction.
