Li Xingbai didn’t speak, but Lan Ge caught a glimpse of someone at the door out of the corner of her eye.

Jiang Zheyu had only come to close the door, not expecting to walk into such an awkward scene.

"Jiang Zheyu, what did you do to Doctor Li now?" Lan Ge furiously looked toward the person at the door.

She was certain the person at the door had to be Jiang Zheyu, so she spoke without even getting a clear look. When her gaze finally fell on Jiang Zheyu’s face, her expression faltered slightly. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"You, you!" Lan Ge froze for a moment, then an immense sense of crisis washed over her. She looked at Jiang Zheyu warily. "Who are you? What are you doing in Jiang Zheyu’s house?"

Jiang Zheyu was speechless.

"Me?" Jiang Zheyu said quietly. "I am Jiang Zheyu."

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Lan Ge frowned. "I know what that ugly freak Jiang Zheyu looks like."

The corner of Jiang Zheyu’s mouth twitched. "You don’t recognize me just because I took off my makeup?"

She also remembered who this was—the female whose Spiritual Power Level was higher than the original owner of this body.

The two of them had even gotten into a physical fight to win Doctor Li’s attention.

"You... you really are Jiang Zheyu!" Lan Ge’s eyes were filled with disbelief, and even disgust.

Jiang Zheyu just nodded. "If you all have no other business, please leave."

With that, she SLAMMED the door shut.

Lan Ge’s eyes widened at Jiang Zheyu’s action, as if she couldn’t believe it. She rushed to the iron gate, grabbed the bars, and yelled, "Jiang Zheyu, what’s with your attitude? My Spiritual Power Level is higher than yours! How dare you give me the cold shoulder!"

Li Xingbai glanced at Lan Ge, then turned and left.

Lan Ge shot a threatening parting shot at Jiang Zheyu: "Jiang Zheyu, just you wait."

After saying her piece, she hurriedly chased after Li Xingbai.

Inside the villa, Jiang Zheyu breathed a sigh of relief only after seeing them leave.

That female, Lan Ge, was quite aggressive. She was the type to start a brawl at the slightest disagreement.

’Thinking about this, Jiang Zheyu suddenly found it strange. Logically, Lan Ge’s Spiritual Power Level is higher than the original owner’s. All she’d have to do is report it to the Empire to be forcibly matched with Doctor Li. So why is she still chasing after him? Lan Ge doesn’t seem like the type of female who would want to win someone over before marrying them.’

A little curious, she searched on the Star Network:

Under what circumstances can a female not forcibly match with a male?

An answer quickly appeared on the Star Network, personally released by the Empire’s official account.

A female cannot forcibly match with a male under the following circumstances:

1. The male is a soldier in the Imperial Army.

2. The male has already applied for a match with a female of a higher Spiritual Power Level. In this case, a female with a lower Spiritual Power Level cannot forcibly match with him. This protection lasts for three years. If the male’s application is not approved within three years, his single status is restored, and he once again becomes eligible for a forced match. If the application is rejected, his single status is restored immediately, making him eligible for a forced match.

3. The male already has a Female Master.

4. The male is under eighteen years of age.

Jiang Zheyu pretty much understood now. Li Xingbai wasn’t in the military, so it had to be the second scenario.

’Lan Ge is a female with a B+++ Spiritual Power. The only one with a higher Spiritual Power than her would be the Little Princess of the Empire.’

Indeed, just as Jiang Zheyu had guessed, Li Xingbai’s matching application was filed under the name of the Little Princess of the Empire.

The Little Princess, of course, wouldn’t bother processing those matching applications. Many outstanding Male Beastmen from the Imperial Army were waiting for the Little Princess to choose from.

However, the three-year period was about to expire.

Li Xingbai also felt it was about time for him to enlist in the military.

Originally, after graduating from the Imperial Military Academy, his family had arranged for him to join the Military Science Institute. However, Li Xingbai didn’t want to study those disgusting bugs, so he chose to work at the Imperial Capital First Hospital instead. He was unexpectedly targeted and pestered by two females, forcing him to apply for a match. It seemed that soon, because of the females’ harassment, he would have to go study bugs at the Military Science Institute after all.

After reading for a while, Jiang Zheyu decided to check Xingdou to see how the video she posted yesterday was doing.

The moment she logged in, she saw 999+ private messages and 999+ likes.

Jiang Zheyu’s heart beat a little faster. She clicked on her video and watched a lively, fox-masked girl dance gracefully before her eyes. It was breathtakingly beautiful; even without seeing the face beneath the mask, she already possessed a beauty that could topple cities.

Jiang Zheyu had been messing around with her Light Brain recently and discovered that 3D could be converted to 2D. Her Light Brain had always been set to 3D, so she had assumed that was the only option. It was only later that she found out it had so many other functions.

Her video had actually gone viral. The number of likes had surpassed one hundred million. Other females’ videos at most got tens of millions of likes; her one hundred million was an explosive success.

The entire interstellar population was just over a billion people, and that wasn’t even counting the less developed planets where Light Brains and Xingdou weren’t widespread.

Jiang Zheyu opened the comment section. It was a uniform flood of "Wifey, wifey, wifey." Various Beastmen had left self-introductions and selfies, much like the comments under other females’ videos.

But she had over one hundred million followers.

’If each of these hundred million-plus people gave me one Star Coin, I’d make a hundred million Star Coins a day!’ Jiang Zheyu thought to herself.

For now, it seemed no one had recognized who the account’s previous owner was.

Jiang Zheyu felt she could try live-streaming tonight.

But before that, she started browsing for videos of snakes.

Some were ordinary snakes, not Snake Beastmen. Some Snake Beastmen specifically raised and trained snakes to show to an audience.

Jiang Zheyu had just entered a live stream room when she saw a Snake Beastman introducing a large python.

"Look at this big python, everyone. Its form is the most similar to our Commander Su’s! Same black scales and red eyes. Friends who like Commander Su can buy one to take home and raise," the Beastman in the live stream said enthusiastically.

Looking at the large black python, Jiang Zheyu still felt an internal resistance to getting close to it. However, as she watched it, she felt that this black python’s color lacked the luster of a dark, inky river that Su Yan’s snake form possessed.

She paused. Having gotten used to the sight of Su Yan’s fierce, giant black python spiritual body, she surprisingly found that these much smaller black pythons in the live stream weren’t scary at all.

She swiped to another snake-related live stream and found that all of them were featuring black pythons. ’Why?’

Jiang Zheyu learned from the audience comments that Su Yan had always been very popular on the Star Network.

It wasn’t just because Su Yan was the commander of the Third Army, but also because in recent years, the Zerg Race had invaded multiple times, and the primary force who repelled their attacks was always Su Yan.

There was also his most famous battle, where he single-handedly piloted his Battle Armor deep into a Zerg hive and destroyed their nest.

His Hongying Armor had even become the most valuable gift effect on Xingdou.

Jiang Zheyu also scrolled to a video showing the silhouette of the Hongying Mecha as Su Yan killed Zerg the previous night.

A sleek, powerful red light landed on the ground, and a giant Hongying Armor charged toward a large white bug at extreme speed.

’So that was the reason for the smell of blood last night?’
