As previously mentioned, every B-level and above warrior is practically a qualified sniper with precise shooting skills.

And Yuanyuan's shooting skills, among the A-level warriors, are considered outstanding, not only precise but also with quick reflexes.

She wielded a shotgun machine gun sputtering conductive material and fired frantically, drones crashing down one after another.

After shooting down more than a dozen drones, the remaining drones began to flee wildly.

Yuanyuan didn't pursue them but instead clapped her hands, satisfied to stop—no surveillance was good enough.

However, not long after, her watch began vibrating violently again.

Calling her was a familiar City Guard bigwig, also an A-level.

It's not surprising, though her base isn't at Celestial Hook, the Iron Blood Brotherhood is in Celestial Heart City.

She's one of the people in charge of the Brotherhood, and she definitely needs to interact with local relevant personnel.

The person was quite straightforward, directly stating that shooting down so many drones made "them" very unhappy.

Yuanyuan instantly showed her fierce side, "Them... who do you mean 'them'? Tell me!"

"I was just on the phone with the Supreme Qinghu, she's soon returning to Celestial Hook."

"I just really want to know who is watching her so relentlessly!"

Previously, in the legend of the "Four Kings and One Queen" in Celestial Heart City, her background was the most mysterious.

There were people who coveted the Ion Purification Armor, and some speculated she was related to the Supreme, but most were just guesses without solid evidence.

Now she not only calmly admitted but also dared to directly call the Supreme by name!

This is not just about proximity; overall... you have to be qualified.

Previously, Yuanyuan wouldn't dare to directly call the Supreme by name, but this time, Ran Bingluan gave her courage.

Being with him, if she didn't even dare to mention Qinghu's name, wouldn't they drift apart?

Sure, she's very young and talented, but that's compared to others.

An A-level peak at just over fifty, rare once in a century, but compared to a Supreme under forty, is it really a match?

Others won't say you're inferior, but you must understand the need to strive.

The person on the other end was startled, "Yuanyuan, I know you're powerful, but no need to call the Supreme's name to prove it, right?"

"Whatever, a senior at home knows," Yuanyuan casually replied, "Just say, what do you want from me."

Previously, when she interacted with this person, it was somewhat passive.

Despite her certainty that her own strength can crush the other side, but... isn't a mighty dragon no match for a local snake?

The person also understood the boundaries, even making some excessive requests.

First, asking for a son in marriage, but his son was too incompetent, just breaking through B-level at just over fifty.

For an ordinary family, this is an impressive talent, even if built with resources, how many B-levels in Celestial Hook altogether?

And at this age, it's hopeful to challenge A-level.

But compared to Yuanyuan, it's really incomparable; at the same age, one had just recently entered B-level, while the other was already at A-level peak.

After Yuanyuan's refusal, this guy still wondered if he might have a chance, anyway... it was quite speechless.

The person sighed, "At Lonely Leaf Lake, the government and military are collecting hydrological data, suspecting you of damage to public property."

"Bah, let them talk to the landlord," Yuanyuan replied indifferently, "This is a claimed territory!"

After saying this, she hung up the communication and then looked up at the sky.

"Boss, could there be satellite surveillance? These guys absolutely have the power to deploy satellites."

"There is surveillance," Qu Jianlei answered gloomily, "At least three, but can we shoot them?"

He was still adapting to various Supreme abilities, but even at A-level, if he sensed with all his power, he could detect satellites.

Yuanyuan heard this and sighed too; flying devices at thirty to forty thousand feet are shootable, but beyond that, it's really inappropriate.

"Then we can only hope for more rainy weather in the coming days."

Celestial Hook is rainy; as long as rain clouds cover, those satellites can't spy on Half-Star Island much of the secrets.

Unfortunately, over the next few days, the sky above Lonely Leaf Lake was incredibly clear and sunny.

Although Yuanyuan's perception is far inferior to Qu Jianlei, she noticed something amiss too, "How can the sky above the lake be continuously clear?"

Then she perceived for a long time, finally speaking through gritted teeth, "Damn it, they're using Cloud Transformation Agent!"

Qu Jianlei lazily spoke, "That's enough, no need to be so angry, just rest well during the day."

He had long noticed, occasionally an aircraft would fly past nearby, sometimes directly over the lake.

But the flying devices didn't have dedicated surveillance equipment, he thought it inappropriate to shoot them down casually.

Then he discovered, these flying devices were scattering some colorless powder, and he guessed what was going on in his mind.

Even Blue Star has Rain Repelling Potion, it's definitely normal for the Imperial to have such means.

Although things like this are quite stifling, there's really no way to quarrel over it.

He indeed can shoot down a flying object precisely over the lake, but they can still use cannons to launch Rain Repelling Bullets, right?

Therefore, Qu Jianlei decided to rest during the day and begin repairing the defense array at night.

He took three days to fix the second layer of the defense array.

After another two days, the components of the first layer of the defense array were completed, including some newly developed parts.

Ultimately, evolution remained close to its roots, and Qu Jianlei spent an entire night to repair the first layer of the defense array.

Yuanyuan activated both defense arrays and invited a B-level Water Attribute to release a loop of water mist.

This way, the mist lingered between the two defense arrays, making it much harder for outsiders to spy.

The observers were fuming with anger, "Such blatant resistance to the Imperial investigation, too outrageous!"

Someone else was more philosophical, "There's a Supreme on the island, not intervening is already giving face to the Empire."

This was true; although Qu Jianlei appeared arrogant, his actions were not really excessive.

For an average Supreme, on a whim, casually bringing down those flying devices is quite normal.

—How dare someone secretly spy on a Supreme and still feel justified?

Qu Jianlei was not unwilling to act, but... his identity was problematic.

Bringing down flying devices was easy, but the other side had the right to demand he show his identity for investigation purposes.

Deploying flying devices indeed had the suspicion of spying on a Supreme, but regardless, you are destroying Imperial assets, aren't you?

We are not asking for compensation, but you should report the damage, please reveal your identity?

Previously, those little drones breached the island, indeed inappropriate, and Yuanyuan destroying them was fine.

However, these flying devices spray Cloud Transformation Agent, which can be seen as fulfilling government meteorological duties, which is different.

Qu Jianlei knew his identity couldn't stand scrutiny, and he was not willing to risk it, so he simply ignored it.

Nevertheless, some observers were still upset, "Both defense arrays are so strong, are they against Energy Blocks?"

Of course not against, but Yuanyuan liked acting recklessly, and Qu Jianlei was someone who pursued clarity in thought.

Both of them activated the defense arrays as a matter of pride, consuming some Energy Blocks didn't matter.

Yuanyuan remained dissatisfied, muttering within the defense array, "Couldn't repair the Qi Gathering Array, still nothing to do."

"At least you can handcraft some components," Qu Jianlei muttered, "hope Qinghu returns soon."

In previous nights, he only did defense array repairs, but now in broad daylight, real work could commence.

However, once he started, the observers noticed again, "There are energy fluctuations and electrical changes."

"Shame the screening is so strong, such defense arrays severely block electromagnetic signals."

"Really want to rush in and see what these two are up to!"

"No matter what they're doing, definitely not between a man and a woman, haven't you noticed their relationship is a bit odd?"

The following two days, the defense array constantly enveloped in white mist, with water vapor slightly thinning, Yuanyuan promptly called people in to replenish.

The observers had no temper left, simply stopped sending devices to disperse the mist, Cloud Transformation Agents cost money after all.

So in the evening of the second day, Half-Star Island unexpectedly experienced a not-so-small rain.

Qu Jianlei got a sudden urge and lowered the protection level of both defense arrays to the minimum, starting to test the changes after Supreme.

His actions once again caught the attention of the observers.

"This really is, just finished a rain, this person becomes restless again, should we disperse the rain clouds?"

"You stop joking, really think Supremes have no temper? Just watch when they get mad, killing you won't have consequences?"

This possibility objectively existed, the previous dispersal of the mist, the other party was surely aware, not causing trouble was already quite gracious.

The previous person stayed silent for a moment, then muttered, "I just wonder, what trouble did this Supreme get into?"

The latter hesitated for a moment, whispered, "I heard an adult mentioned, seems like there's an energy anomaly, the classification is very high..."

"Right, definitely don't spread it around."

"Involves at least two Supremes... such a big matter, who dares say anything?"

"More than just two Supremes, heard that peak A-level female warrior also has Supremes backing her."

"Damn, such a big issue, how are we little ones supposed to handle it... when will these days end?"

"Soon, heard a Supreme is coming over recently, probably the owner of Half-Star Island."

Qu Jianlei and Yuanyuan eagerly awaited Qinghu's return, so did the Anomalous Management Division.

Two days later, Qinghu disembarked from the starship, not yet out of the passageway, seven or eight people approached head-on.

Leading was a driver, "Lord Qinghu, you're finally here, Anomalous Management Division requests your presence."

Qinghu glanced at him lightly, casually said, "Come to Half-Star Island to find me."

Despite such a light statement, others dared not retort, everyone knew this person was not only aloof but also possessed strong combat power.

The driver gathered courage and said, "There is some information in the Anomalous Management Division that you should know."

Qinghu continued walking at his own pace, after a few steps, he snorted coldly, "Already dare to intrude on my home, keep coming then."
