Are you playing the role of Infernal Affairs?

The entire Sky City seemed to be floating in the clouds.

Upon arriving, the layout and furnishings came into view, resembling a garden.

There were various potted plants, a large swimming pool, and a person sitting on a chair, seemingly sunbathing, with an orange cat in his arms, looking very content.

Bai Gu stepped forward and respectfully said, “Star Alliance Lord, Ye Chen has arrived.”

The man, who had been resting with his eyes closed, slowly opened them.

He was under forty, with a very kind face, like a benevolent elder.

When he opened his eyes, if you looked into them, you would understand why he was called Star Alliance Lord.

Because in his eyes, it truly seemed as if stars twinkled.

Star Alliance Lord nodded and said, “Good, let Ye Chen come over. You two may leave first.”

“Yes!” Bai Gu bowed slightly and said to Ye Chen, “Mr. Ye Chen, please come over.”

Ye Chen had no fear and walked up to Star Alliance Lord.

Unlike a deity, who often exuded an intimidating aura, Star Alliance Lord was the complete opposite; he seemed almost no different from an ordinary person.

Star Alliance Lord waved his hand and smiled, “Little Brother Ye Chen, have a seat.”

For some reason, Star Alliance Lord possessed a natural affinity that made people feel an irresistible sense of closeness.

After taking a seat, Star Alliance Lord smiled, “Little Brother Ye Chen, you and I are quite fated. You once created an alliance called Star Alliance, and my name is also Star Alliance Lord. To be honest, when I saw you, I felt a special sense of closeness.”

Ye Chen smiled, “I feel the same way. Meeting you, Senior, also fills me with a sense of closeness.”

“Hahaha! You glib talker.” Star Alliance Lord laughed heartily, “I’ve already investigated your information. Four pets, three Genesis, two Breakers—very strong. Those people from Heaven’s Chosen Alliance claim to be unique and chosen, and while their pets are special, they’re completely insignificant compared to yours. This is the first time I’ve encountered someone with four pets.”

Ye Chen nodded and smiled, not refuting. Ye Chen knew there was no point in refuting; he had almost no secrets before Star Alliance Lord now.

A person suddenly walked over and served some tea.

Ye Chen looked at this person, who was wearing a black robe. Ye Chen was slightly startled and reached out, directly pulling off the person’s clothes.

This person had a very familiar face.

“Black Peng, good heavens, you’re playing Infernal Affairs here.”

This person was indeed Black Peng, who had been by Kong Xi’s side.

Black Peng smiled awkwardly, “Lord Ye Chen, I had no choice. After all, I am human, so everything naturally revolves around humanity.”

“Aren’t you afraid Kong Xi will find out? And then kill you?”

Black Peng’s expression suddenly turned serious: “To dedicate oneself to humanity until death! In the face of national righteousness and the safety of the human race, my life is nothing!”

“Alright!”

Ye Chen hadn’t expected Black Peng to possess such great righteousness. He had initially thought him a traitor, but it turned out he was a loyal subject, and a very loyal one at that.

If Kong Xi found out, she would surely be furious to death. A dignified Demon King, with a spy by her side!

Star Alliance Lord smiled, “Alright, all of this was arranged by us. Kong Xi is indeed under our surveillance, but mere surveillance is useless. We had no choice but to resort to this strategy, letting Black Peng pretend to be bribed to extract information for us from Kong Xi’s side. Although Kong Xi is a Demon King and her strength is formidable, when it comes to schemes and tricks, she’s just a little brother! Hahaha!”

With that, Star Alliance Lord burst into laughter.

All this time, Kong Xi was still kept in the dark.

It was Black Peng who told them about his whereabouts and the matters between him and Kong Xi.

“Senior Star Alliance Lord, may I ask why you called me here?”

Ye Chen cupped his hands and asked.

Star Alliance Lord stopped laughing and said, “Actually, it’s also for Kong Xi. Although Black Peng is by Kong Xi’s side, he’s ultimately just a servant and can’t extract much useful information. But I heard from Black Peng that Little Brother Ye Chen is very close to Kong Xi, so I wanted to ask Little Brother Ye Chen to gather more information about Kong Xi.”

As Ye Chen had expected, “May I ask, Senior Star Alliance Lord, what position do you hold in the Law Enforcement Alliance? Are you one of the top figures in the Law Enforcement Alliance?”

“No!” Star Alliance Lord shook his head, “I am merely an Elder in the Law Enforcement Alliance, the First Elder. There are still people above me. Those are the top War Gods among us humans, and the burden of protecting the safety of the human race rests on their shoulders.”

Ye Chen nodded, feeling no disappointment in his heart; he had already guessed as much.

“What? Is Little Brother Ye Chen interested in this?”

“Yes, to be honest, Kong Xi told me some things. She said she came here two years ago and was captured by us humans. We obtained a lot of information from her, but at that time, she hadn’t recovered much of her memory, therefore…”

Ye Chen did not finish his sentence.

Star Alliance Lord nodded and hummed, saying, “Actually, Kong Xi spoke the truth. The incident happened two years ago. At that time, the space monitoring station detected a strange object flying from the universe, landing in the sea. We then retrieved it, and it was a flying device, with Kong Xi inside.

We detected strong energy fluctuations from Kong Xi. That energy, to us at the time, was extremely terrifying and immense, enough to destroy us. Fortunately, we possessed powerful technological capabilities, so we imprisoned Kong Xi. When Kong Xi awoke, she indeed seemed to have lost many memories. Later, through some questioning, we obtained some information.

Kong Xi came from another world, a world not within this universe, seemingly from another dimension, a unique world vastly different from ours. She broke through space to get here, and the entrance to that space is in the universe. We sent people to investigate, a total of ten people, who went through that spatial rift to the world where Kong Xi resides.

That world is not very different from ours, except that many strange life forms—monsters and pets—live there. Our people made some kind of deal with the pet race, and that’s how we can now summon pets. Many Experience Capsules and some treasures are all brought from there.”

After Star Alliance Lord finished speaking, Ye Chen finally understood. No wonder there were so many strong individuals; it turned out they had already started upgrading and cultivating two years ago.

“We sent many more people before and after. Of course, some also died in that place. Every so often, people would return with treasures, and a new group would enter. Those people are our human powerhouses, and also our national guards. Their strength is unfathomable. To be honest, I was among the third group to go!”
