289: Chapter 291 Jiang Chen: Break your legs! Come back here and take the civil service exam!

"Xinghe, you stop right there!"

Jiang Chen stood at the edge of the tarmac, looking at the child-sized luan niao starship. Although it was scaled down, its antimatter engines were still glowing with a blue light, and he felt a headache coming on.

This kid really has some nerve.

For the sake of his dream of "becoming the Pirate King," he even hacked the automatic navigation protocol in Academician Chen Shuyin's laboratory and installed an automatic cruise system on this warship.

"Dad, the times have changed!"

Jiang Xinghe stood at the hatch. His face, which looked exactly like Jiang Chen's in his youth, was filled with that typical arrogance of "a newborn calf not fearing the tiger." "How big is the Milky Way Galaxy now? What's the point of guarding sweet potato fields on Mars? I'm going to the Cygnus Nebula, and I'm going to be the Pirate King there!"

After saying this, the little guy pressed the ignition button directly.

"Boom!"

A powerful electromagnetic thrust erupted instantly, and the small warship, like an angry sparrow shot from a slingshot, disappeared into deep space in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Chen's hand froze in mid-air, and the words "Come back and take the civil service exam" were blown into pieces by the wind.

"Is... is this hereditary?"

Academician Chen Shuyin walked out carrying the just-awakened Jiang Yueying. Looking at the empty tarmac, her tone was thirty percent helpless and seventy percent... proud.

"Weren't you just as righteous when you stole money from home to buy models when you were a kid?"

"Is that the same thing?"

Jiang Chen paced the deck in exasperation. "That was for survival! This kid has everything he needs now, yet he insists on being a 'pirate'? On Earth, that's called illegal. What do you call it in space? Interstellar terrorism!"

"If he goes out for a few years and brings a bunch of alien criminals back to Mars Base to throw a party, let's see how you, the Chief Scientist, handle that!"

"I handle it?"

Academician Chen Shuyin calmly put a pacifier in Jiang Yueying's mouth. "If he really manages to recruit those interstellar thugs, I'll have to praise his leadership skills."

"However..."

She paused, her eyes suddenly becoming deep. "The direction he left in seems to be heading towards the star sector where the 'Broken Sword Alliance' is located."

Jiang Chen's heart skipped a beat.

The Broken Sword Alliance.

After Centaurus, that was another remnant of an ancient civilization attempting to challenge his power.

This brat, why did he have to go poking a hornet's nest instead of going anywhere else?

"Zhao Gang!"

Jiang Chen roared into the communicator, "Forget about the training! Send two patrol planes to chase him immediately! Get him back for me! Tell him..."

"Tell him I don't allow him to be the Pirate King! Make him come back and obediently take the civil service exam!"

"After all, only an iron rice bowl within the system can let him walk sideways in the universe in the future without worrying about being expelled by the Federation!"

Zhao Gang replied very crisply on the other end: "Understood! I'm going to catch the young master right now!"

Before Zhao Gang could set off, Jiang Yueying, who had been quietly nursing in Academician Chen Shuyin's arms, suddenly twisted her body, spat out the pacifier, and pointed at the star map on the screen, laughing and babbling.

"Yueying, what's wrong?"

Academician Chen Shuyin pinched her daughter's cheek dotingly.

Jiang Yueying didn't speak, just pointed to another direction on the screen. That was the Alpha Centauri System, the territory where the prince who had just married into the Dragon Kingdom was located.

Jiang Chen took a casual glance.

With this look, cold sweat immediately broke out.

In the image, a young man in a silver tuxedo was holding the hand of a little girl who looked only eight or nine years old, walking in the famous "Eternal Garden."

That girl... is Jiang Yueying's "twin sister"?

No! Although the girl on the screen looked exactly like Yueying, her outfit and that aura full of wildness were definitely not those of a good girl from the Dragon Star Sector!

Was that a clone of Jiang Yueying that he sent to that galaxy to "conduct diplomacy"? No, that's not right! That is Jiang Yueying herself!

"Didn't I tell you to watch over your sister?!"

Jiang Chen pointed at the screen and roared at Academician Chen Shuyin.

Academician Chen Shuyin was also stunned. "She was playing with blocks right next to me just now! How did she run off to that alien prince's galaxy in the blink of an eye?"

On the screen, Jiang Yueying smiled innocently. She pointed to a star in the distance to the alien prince and said in a milky voice: "Big brother, that star looks so shiny. Will you give it to me?"

The alien prince was so bewitched that he nodded without even thinking: "As long as you are happy, this entire galaxy is yours!"

"Great!" Jiang Yueying clapped her hands happily, turned to the camera, and shouted: "Dad! Look! Another planet has been credited!"

Jiang Chen stood on the deck of the luan bird, looking at the siblings—one going to be a pirate, the other going to commit marriage fraud.

Is this a genetic mutation, or are these brats challenging his bottom line?

"It's over." Jiang Chen rubbed his temples, feeling that the peace of this universe was truly going to be ended by these children.

"One wants to be the Pirate King." "One wants to scam people out of their galaxy." "Will I be able to keep my reputation as the village chief of the Milky Way Galaxy in the future?"

Academician Chen Shuyin looked at his complex expression—a mix of being disappointed that they didn't live up to his expectations and a faint sense of "my kids are amazing"—and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Jiang Chen, this is your destiny." "Since you are already the ruler of the Milky Way Galaxy." "Then your children..." "Are naturally the troublemakers of this universe."

Jiang Chen waved his hand and turned helplessly into the bridge: "What troublemakers, those are heirs!"

"Send them a signal." "Tell them to stop messing around outside." "Pirate or swindler, get back here to me quickly."

"If I don't see them by breakfast tomorrow." "I'm going to cut off the internet of this Milky Way Galaxy." "Let them know what... the fear of having no internet is."

As the roar of the warship's engine shattered the quiet starry sky, Jiang Chen's figure completely disappeared into that magnificent Milky Way Galaxy.

But this was not the end. Because just when they had caught these "little devils" and locked them in the villa's training room, an alarm with endless chill and a familiar aura came from the end of the universe.

That was not a signal. That was a... challenge letter.

"Unknown dimensional life forms detected." "They are not here to harvest resources." "They are here to... pick a fight."

Jiang Chen stopped. He looked at the radar screen that had been reopened, filled with a destructive aura. The emptiness that had arisen after just dealing with the field of carnage was instantly replaced by another kind of pure, hair-raising fighting spirit.

This universe is finally getting interesting.

He turned his head and looked at the surprised Zhao Gang. "Zhao Gang." "Bring your gun." "I think we will soon be able to see..." "The legendary mastermind behind the scenes."

The spaceship flew away. What was left for the whole universe was a sleepless night and the legend of the "wuling hongguang."
