158: Chapter 159 Stomping a Dimensional Monster? The Star Alliance Princess Steps on Nuclear Alloy, Exuding Domineering Aura as She Delivers Her Dowry

“This...”

Jiang Chen's eyes went wide, his mouth agape enough to fit an egg.

His heart rate instantly spiked to 220. If it weren't for the heart of absolute calm on his belt suddenly erupting with a bone-chilling coldness that pricked him and made him jolt, he reckoned he would have already rushed over.

“Is this f*cking tentacle monster?!”

Jiang Chen roared internally, feeling his worldview collapse. “This is a scam! This is a cosmic-level scam! If I had known she looked like this, why would I have been hiding? I would have slid on my knees to greet her! I would even be willing to buy a ring for each of her eighteen tentacles!”

The young girl slowly opened her eyes.

Her pupils were actually heart-shaped.

Pink, slowly rotating heart-shaped pupils, so deep they seemed capable of absorbing one's soul.

She didn't look at the Sisters surrounding her as if facing a great enemy; instead, she locked eyes with Jiang Chen, who was hiding behind Change.

And then.

She smiled.

With this smile, it was as if all the flowers in the universe blossomed at this moment, making even the fake flowers on the moon seem dull in comparison.

She lifted her skirt and elegantly performed a standard Earth classical greeting (clearly she had done her homework, and done it more standardly than in period dramas). Her voice was as soft and sticky as freshly made cotton candy, sweet enough to make one feel cloyed:

“First heir of the Star Alliance, Gu Liuli, greets my husband.”

“Meeting for the first time, my husband is indeed as... handsome and dashing as the data indicated, making my little heart go thump-thump.”

As she spoke, she made a gesture of holding her heart, her shy expression taking the term “green tea” to an interstellar level.

On Earth.

Billions of male compatriots watching the live broadcast collectively spurted nosebleeds, and some even knelt before the screen on the spot.

“Holy sh*t! This is what a princess is! This is what an interstellar marriage is!”

“Director Jiang! If you won't marry her, let me! I'm not afraid of tentacles! Even if she's Godzilla, I'll accept it! As long as I can be stepped on by her once, I'll die without regrets!”

“What tentacle monster? That's a rumor! This is a goddess! Do you understand what a goddess is? If she's a monster, then I'm willing to be eaten!”

However.

Just as everyone was stunned by her beauty.

“Crack.”

A crisp sound rang out.

Gu Liuli's small foot, which looked soft and boneless, gently stepped on a piece of black metal debris.

That fragment was the wreckage left by the “dimensional monster” that Change had crushed earlier, as well as the defected “Star Alliance vanguard,” with a hardness comparable to neutron star matter.

The smile on Gu Liuli's face remained unchanged, but a flash of cold mockery crossed the depths of her eyes. That kind of aloof indifference instantly made people realize—this was absolutely not just a pretty face.

She gave a light grind with her toe.

That high-strength alloy, which even nuclear bombs couldn't destroy, instantly turned into powder and drifted away with the wind.

“So dirty.”

She brushed the non-existent dust off her skirt nonchalantly, her tone carrying the natural contempt of a superior toward ants, as if what she had just crushed was merely an insignificant insect.

“Husband, you've been frightened.”

She raised her head and looked at Jiang Chen, her eyes clear and sincere, as if that violent action hadn't been performed by her. “That group of exiles who came under the banner of the Star Alliance earlier were indeed quite disgusting.”

“Exiles?” Jiang Chen was stunned, his brain struggling to keep up.

“Yes.”

Gu Liuli blinked, a trace of innocence showing in those heart-shaped pupils. “Our Star Alliance has vast territory and resources, so there are always some disobedient leftovers, or obsolete old models, who like to use the family name to swindle people outside.”

“What dimensional monster, what cleanser fleet... they are just a pack of stray dogs kicked out of the central star region. Just like rats in a garbage dump, always thinking they are lions.”

“The real Star Alliance...”

She pointed to the palace ship behind her that had even stopped the rotation of Saturn's rings. Her smile was sweet yet domineering, and an invisible regal aura swept across the scene:

“Is here to deliver a dowry.”

“Not to pick up trash.”

This single sentence maxed out the aura.

The crisis that had previously brought Earth to the brink of extinction and forced Change to use her divine power was, in her mouth, nothing more than “leftovers” and “trash.”

This was the confidence of a true cosmic hegemon-level civilization.

“Hiss—”

Jiang Chen gasped, feeling his tooth roots ache.

This soft rice... seemed even harder than he had imagined! This wasn't just a golden rice bowl; it was a diamond rice bowl!

And...

He felt killing intent.

Not from the enemy, but from behind him. It was a murderous intent colder than the vacuum of space.

“Husband.”

Change's voice came eerily from behind, carrying a hint of jealousy, every word squeezed through her teeth. “Your eyes are wide open, be careful they might pop out. It seems you prefer this kind of ‘transformation-type’ little sister?”

A cool hand precisely pinched the soft flesh on Jiang Chen's waist, then rotated it 360 degrees, followed by a twisting tug.

“Ah—!”

Jiang Chen screamed, instantly returning to his senses, tears even streaming out.

“No! No! I was just observing the enemy situation!”

Jiang Chen quickly pledged his loyalty, his desire to survive maxed out. “Wife, listen to me! This is all a disguise! This is all a sugar-coated bullet! Essentially, she's still a big octopus! I hate seafood the most! Really!”

“Hmph.”

Ji Linglong sneered, her sword slightly unsheathed, the blade reflecting her cold-as-frost face: “Octopus? In this palace's view, this is a thousand-year-old vixen, right? This smell of a harlot can be smelled even across a vacuum. Daring to call him ‘husband’ in front of the main wife, truly lacking in manners.”

Zero's electronic eyes flared red, and white gas puffed out from the cooling vents on her back: “Warning! Target's ‘tea art’ index is off the charts. Detected high concentration of ‘green tea’ pheromones. It is recommended to immediately activate the firewall, block her audio signals, and launch a ‘physical degreasing’ strike.”

A field of carnage.

An upgraded version of a field of carnage.

Previously, it was three powerful women fighting, which was a physical war, at worst just tearing down houses.

Now, a high-ranking “green tea” princess has arrived; this is a psychological palace drama! A single misstep, and it's total ruin!

Gu Liuli seemed to have completely not heard the cold mockery from those Sisters, or rather, she didn't care at all.

She strode forward with her long legs, walking toward Jiang Chen step by step. Every step she took, a pink energy lotus flower would automatically form to support her jade feet, lotuses blooming with every step, breathtakingly beautiful.

“Husband~”

She stopped three meters in front of Jiang Chen, tilted her head, and looked at Jiang Chen, who was shielded in the middle by three women, with a grievance-filled face, her eyes slightly red.

“Do the Sisters not like Liuli?”

“That's to be expected. Liuli is just an outsider, bringing a dowry of hundreds of star systems, running thousands of miles just to throw myself at you... it really is a bit shameless.”

“If the Sisters feel that Liuli is an eyesore, Liuli will leave. It's just that the dowry has already been transported here; those stars, rare minerals, and faster-than-light fleets, returning them would require paying a lot of tariffs, so just keep them as pocket money for my husband.”

After speaking, she turned to leave, her back so lonely it broke people's hearts, those slightly trembling shoulders truly making listeners sad and viewers weep.

“Wait... wait!”

Before Jiang Chen could speak, Director Jiang on the Earth side panicked first, shouting into the communicator, his voice cracking:

“You can't leave! You absolutely cannot leave!”

“A dowry of hundreds of star systems! Is that pocket money? That's the life of all humanity! That's our ticket to the stars and the sea!”

“Director Jiang! Hurry! Hug her! Forget about the field of carnage! For the sake of the country, even if you have to kneel on a washboard, you must make her stay! This is an order! A top-priority order!”

Jiang Chen looked at that sorrowfully beautiful back, then looked at his three murderous wives, and then touched the belt buckle that was frantically cooling on his waist.

He felt he was standing on the edge of a cliff.

One step forward is an abyss (being beaten to death by his wives), one step back is an eternal sinner (letting the God of Wealth run away).

“Um... Sister Liuli!”

Jiang Chen bit the bullet and shouted, his voice filled with tragedy.

Gu Liuli's footsteps stopped instantly.

She turned back, the teardrops at the corners of her eyes not yet wiped away, but the corners of her mouth had already curled into a cunning arc.

That expression clearly said:

Little one, I've been playing interstellar diplomacy for hundreds of years, and I still can't handle you, an Earth native?

“Husband, did you call me?”

She burst into laughter through her tears, that smile truly enchanting, making even the surrounding starlight dim.

Jiang Chen only felt the flesh on his waist being fiercely twisted again by Change, making him grimace in pain.

At this moment, he was in pain and happy.

This soft rice wasn't just hard, it was f*cking scalding, and... it also had hooks!
