"Chen Zilu?"
Jiang Ye's expression shifted slightly.
Wang Zilu came from the Brilliant Dragon Civilization and had never even heard of the Blue Star Civilization before. How could she possibly have any impression of Chen Zilu?
"What kind of impression?" A glint flashed in Jiang Ye's eyes.
"If I'm not mistaken, she should be from the Blue Star Civilization, just like you."
"And she's very close to you." Wang Zilu smiled, her expression strikingly similar to Chen Zilu's, and utterly captivating.
"That's a guess, not an impression," Jiang Ye said expressionlessly.
Wang Zilu's smile froze.
This guy's a total steel-straight man, she thought to herself, but her face remained bright and cheerful.
She turned away, clasping her hands behind her back.
"Fine."
"If you want an impression... she looks a lot like me, right?" Wang Zilu tilted her head, revealing a profile of breathtaking beauty.
"She doesn't." Jiang Ye shook his head.
"Where's the difference?" Wang Zilu frowned, her delicate eyebrows arching.
"I want to hear your impression of her, not just keep asking me questions," Jiang Ye said calmly.
"This is my impression of Chen Zilu."
"You've met her?"
"Never mind whether I have or not. Can't I make a guess?" Wang Zilu huffed. "If not for that, why did you save me that day?"
"Because I thought you strongly resembled someone from the Blue Star Civilization," Jiang Ye replied truthfully.
"I think you strongly resemble someone from our Brilliant Dragon Civilization too," Wang Zilu said, her peach-blossom eyes blinking.
"..." Jiang Ye felt this topic was pointless to continue.
It seemed he wouldn't get any useful information from her.
Just then,
"Forget it."
"I'll tell you the truth," Wang Zilu said, pouting slightly. "I have indeed met her."
"How?" Jiang Ye raised an eyebrow.
Chen Zilu was in the fifth breakthrough area.
Logically, Wang Zilu shouldn't have been able to encounter her.
"You don't need to know how. It's my secret," Wang Zilu retorted coldly.
She had come driven by a flutter in her heart, but Jiang Ye's indifferent attitude was making her lose interest.
At that moment,
"This isn't your true form, is it?" Jiang Ye suddenly said, his gaze fixed on the girl's beautiful eyes.
"What did you say?" Wang Zilu froze, startled.
"Nothing," Jiang Ye said with a sudden smile, turning away. "Let's end it here. I don't like dealing with foreign races."
"You..." Wang Zilu's delicate, rosy lips parted slightly, but no words came out.
She stood rooted to the spot, watching his figure recede into the distance.
How is this possible?
How did he know? Wang Zilu murmured to herself, her peach-blossom eyes filled with confusion.
It was as if a secret she had buried for years had been unearthed by some inexplicable means.
Yet he had left without a trace, showing no mercy.
This act of leaving her in such a state left her mind tingling with curiosity, burning with the desire to know the answer immediately.
Thump-thump! Thump-thump!
That familiar, stirring sensation struck her again.
Jiang Ye...
Who are you, really? Wang Zilu gazed into the distance, her pale hand gently covering her full, high-rising chest.
Inside the mysterious space:
How is this possible?
I'm not allowed to check? The short, black-robed man Ji Wei stared at the query page in utter astonishment.
Moments ago, he had tried to use his authority to investigate the white-robed girl.
But the result?
A line of bold red text appeared on the query projection screen:
Insufficient permissions. Query failed!
"Insufficient permissions? How is that possible?" Ji Ba and Ji Wei were both extremely surprised.
As overseers of the Star Realm Sea, their authority was exceptionally high.
Even for a top-tier genius like Yan Yi, a direct disciple of a Divine, all his secrets could be uncovered with a mere flick of their fingers.
This was the first time they had encountered such a situation since the Star Realm Sea's establishment.
"Ji Ba, use your authority," Ji Wei said swiftly. "Let's try a joint application to see if we can access the information."
By combining their permissions, they could obtain higher-level access.
"Alright," Ji Ba replied, inputting his authority and quickly searching for Wang Zilu's information.
Soon...
Insufficient permissions. Query failed!
"Still no luck," Ji Ba said, shaking his head.
The two exchanged glances, their astonishment deepening.
Even with their combined authority, they couldn't access this girl's information?
What exactly was her background?
"Ji Wei," Ji Ba couldn't help but say, "why don't we try using the family's authority?"
The families behind them were massive powers within the Cangxu Civilization.
If they activated their family's authority, they might even uncover some of the secrets of second-tier civilizations.
Just as they were preparing to act,
Suddenly,
Buzz! A vibration sound echoed.
"It's the Venerable," Ji Wei said, his expression slightly startled. He quickly activated his communicator.
Whoosh~ A mass of light coalesced, forming a hazy figure. The figure was towering and its aura was unfathomably deep.
"Venerable," Ji Ba and Ji Wei bowed respectfully.
"Regarding that girl," the hazy figure said faintly, "you are to cease all investigation. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Venerable," they replied quickly.
Whoosh~
The hazy figure slowly dissipated.
"What?" Ji Ba and Ji Wei exchanged glances, their shock deepening.
The Venerable was the true power behind the Star Realm Sea and their superior.
In the entire Cangxu Civilization, the Venerable was a figure of supreme status and absolute authority.
Did the Venerable personally call just for this?
Who is that girl? Ji Ba's heart trembled involuntarily.
"Let this matter drop," Ji Wei said in a low voice. "As for that girl, let's pretend we never saw her."
"Mm," Ji Ba sighed inwardly.
At this point, there's nothing else we can do.
Meanwhile, in Area 3001 of the Second Star Ring, Jiang Ye didn't immediately leave the canyon. He explored it thoroughly, collecting all the treasures left behind by the hundreds of foreign race members.
These foreign race members were all top-tier prodigies.
Nearly thirty percent of them possessed spatial treasures.
A few minutes later, Jiang Ye stood at the canyon's edge, his harvest full.
Wang Zilu is still here? Jiang Ye could see the girl standing in a corner.
He shook his head.
"Let's go," Jiang Ye said, transforming into a streak of Flowing Light and rapidly flying away.
He remained wary of the foreign race.
High in the sky, Jiang Ye's mind raced with a thousand thoughts. "This Wang Zilu... she possesses an innate avatar ability similar to my senior sister's?"
