Esper X Family – Chapter 629 – You Will Regret This!
In space.
White Comet had also noticed the recent surge in activity from the “blasphemous factions” on Bluestar.
They refused to believe in the omniscience and omnipotence of the “God” who had ushered in this new era, voicing opposition and doubt.
Such a massive wave of dissent had stirred considerable buzz online.
After all, since the emergence of “Tong Yao”, no one had dared to stake their life on stirring up such public opinion.
Logically speaking, after witnessing the entire Bluestar Defense Battle, everyone knew that this was an entity capable of single-handedly destroying the solar system.
Even the mountain folk who rarely interacted with society knew that “Tong Yao” had brought about a golden age.
And Ye Ge, as part of “Tong Yao”, had eradicated the powerful enemy that had invaded Bluestar.
Only a madman would do something as foolish as “defaming” ‘Her’.
White Comet found this equally unreasonable.
No matter how stupid some humans were, they shouldn’t sink below that threshold. This felt far too deliberate.
“Was this Gray Marsh’s doing?”
White Comet frowned slightly, feeling that Gray Marsh had overstepped this time.
Although under the fleet’s surveillance, the observers sent to Bluestar had revealed no flaws.
Given Gray Marsh’s methods, he could indeed be pulling strings covertly.
White Comet was indeed the commander of this expeditionary fleet, but she couldn’t discipline a vice-commander without evidence.
Moreover, Gray Marsh had his share of supporters; with both power and military might relatively balanced, it was difficult for White Comet to take any real action against him.
However, to prevent the situation from deteriorating further, White Comet summoned Gray Marsh.
Facing the imposing man before her, White Comet showed no sign of backing down.
“Deputy Commander Gray Marsh, do not let your personal desires derail this expedition’s objectives. Our ultimate goal is to eliminate future threats to the Watcher Civilization.”
“Commander White Comet, I have no idea what you’re talking about. My thoughts align with yours. I, too, am considering the future of our civilization.”
Gray Marsh revealed no openings, his tone calm and composed.

White Comet didn’t believe it.
“Since that’s your stance, I have no choice but to urgently recall all observers. Until this internal issue is resolved, the fleet will remain in prolonged silence. I can afford to wait as long as it takes to eliminate this crisis.”
Gray Marsh’s expression darkened; White Comet’s decision had clearly struck a nerve.
White Comet indeed lacked the authority to remove a deputy commander, but she did have the power to terminate an ongoing operation.
If all observers were recalled, Gray Marsh would find it difficult to conduct his covert maneuvers.
To curb his actions, she would even recall rapidly advancing confidantes like Silver Frost.
It could only be said that the civilization’s high council had made no mistake in appointing her as fleet commander.
She was truly prioritizing the resolution of threats to their civilization.
If internal conflicts jeopardized the expedition’s purpose, she would not hesitate to first resolve internal disputes.
“Commander White Comet, you will regret this!”
“Deputy Commander Gray Marsh, I am the commander.”
“Hmph!”
Gray Marsh stormed out, slamming the door behind him.
White Comet’s composure remained unshaken. She merely sighed and shook her head.
After this reprimand, he should exercise more restraint.
“Gray Marsh… I hope you don’t end up becoming a sinner of our civilization.”
On Bluestar.
Ye Yao watched this scene with great interest.
“Hehehe~ How dramatic! A famous scene right here.”
It seemed that no matter how advanced a civilization was, total unity was impossible.

Unless they were a hive mind, ideological clashes were bound to happen.
A few days later, Gu Wenxin sent a message.
“Those who deserved to be killed are all dead.”
Scared to tears!
The Great Western King was actually right beside me?
So Mu Luo and the others didn’t go there for an investigation but simply to purge the scum and remnants of the old era.
Ye Yao couldn’t help but ask back.
“Are they really all dead?”
There was a pause on the other end.
“There might still be a few who slipped through the net.”
“Then keep killing!”
Ye Yao gave the order, determined to harshly punish those extremists.
It was rare for someone to voluntarily draw out the rats hiding in the dark corners.
They had even prematurely incubated malicious thoughts of those who weren’t worth eliminating.
For people steeped in heinous crimes, imprisoning them was a waste of resources.
It was better to use them as little snacks for Gu Wenxin and Mu Luo.
Who deserved to die and who didn’t, the mechanism of the【Slaying Evil】ability would decide!
Old Gu was in charge of the harvest, while Old Mu handled the disposal.
They were practically a professional team.
The remaining two could treat it like a sightseeing trip.
Jiang Huashen and Yu Jin’s greatest role was to complete the Four Weakling Brothers… no, the Four Heavenly Kings!

Inside the painting world.
Silver Frost had nearly forgotten her mission these past few days. Under Mo Qiuli’s tutelage, she had almost lost all sense of reality.
Through Ye Yao’s introduction and recommendation, Silver Frost had seamlessly integrated into the group.
Mo Qiuli was ecstatic at having a new companion. Not only did she personally design a custom outfit for Silver Frost, but she also took it upon herself to teach her how to be a proper magical girl.
She offered a wealth of advice on everything from striking poses and crafting lines to inventing magical attack names.
Eager to fit into Ye Yao’s circle, Silver Frost worked hard to adapt and learn.
In just three days, she had earned Mo Qiuli’s approval and was officially granted the code name “Magical Girl Frost Snow”.
One could only say that the scene was too bizarre.
“Little Frosty, you’re an absolute genius! I’m sure the day you make your debut, everyone will love you! You’ve got the feeling down perfectly!”
Mo Qiuli lavished her with praise, just as Ye Yao had once encouraged her.
“H-Haha… is, is that so? Thanks for the compliment.”
Silver Frost’s head was spinning.
What had she been doing these past few days?
She was supposed to conduct close observation, but she had learned a bunch of useless things and ended up humiliating herself in front of Ye Yao instead.
Although everyone was friendly and welcoming to the newcomer, immersing herself in this atmosphere was subtly eroding Silver Frost’s resolve.
At this moment, her heart was wailing.
Argh! Silver Frost, don’t forget your mission! Remember, you’re here to observe your target!
The most important thing should be to dig deeper into Ye Yao’s secrets!
Only then could she successfully complete the task assigned by Commander White Comet!
Just as Silver Frost was lost in thought, Mo Qiuli gave her a satisfied pat on the shoulder.
“In any case, Little Frosty, you’ve officially become a member of our Magical Girl Alliance today.
Rеаd oո КatReаdіոɡСafе
Although our alliance can’t find any villains to fight in reality right now.
Once we’re in space, we’ll surely get the chance to hunt down evil aliens and thrash them soundly.
Just like in the Bluestar Defense Battle, you’ll definitely have your own moment of glory!”
Beside them, An Qi blinked.
Silver Frost’s fate line didn’t quite resemble that of a native.
Looking at the bigger picture, she didn’t even seem to have been born on Bluestar.
Fortunately, Ye Yao had given An Qi instructions in advance.
Otherwise, An Qi wouldn’t be keeping Silver Frost’s cover.
If she were exposed, Silver Frost could prematurely transform into a villain and formally face off against Bluestar’s magical girls.
Would she win?
No, she would be defeated on the spot, swiftly taken captive by Ye Yao, and then logically subjected to whatever Ye Yao desired.
An Qi had already seen through Silver Frost’s fate.
