“Your statement is logical. If he truly did not harm your brother and sister-in-law, he wouldn’t be afraid of your investigation or your collaboration with the Wei family in exploring the matter, let alone allow Wei Xuan, who is by your side, to tamper with your spaceship. It is evident that he fears you will uncover something and take action against the Wang family upon your return to the capital planet,” Liao Ning agreed with Zhou Ling’s speculation. All the evidence seemed to point towards the Wang family.

However, Liao Ning believed that after the court martial held the following day and the Wei family’s crimes were exposed, the system would provide her with the truth. Humans could deceive one another, but the system would not lie.

Since acquiring the system, almost all the missions she received were focused on saving Zhou Ling and the Zhou family, including preventing Liao Nai and Mili from turning evil. Liao Ning dared to speculate that because these two villains were connected to the Zhou family, the system’s mission might involve saving them as well.

She pondered on who the mastermind behind this powerful system could be. It was truly remarkable!

The court martial had now commenced. The case had a significant impact as it revealed collusion between the Wei and Wang families, who also disregarded the safety of frontline warriors by distributing unqualified mental strength potions. Many high-ranking officials of the alliance were implicated, leading to a complete reshuffle of the upper echelons.

Due to the undeniable evidence, the Wei family faced severe consequences. The alliance ordered them to hand over 60% of their total assets as compensation to the Federation and the victims. Wei Nan, the family head, received a life sentence and was stripped of political rights indefinitely.

However, due to the Wei family’s voluntary surrender of the mental strength potion formula, the alliance showed leniency towards the other descendants. The direct bloodline of the Wei family was prohibited from participating in the alliance’s political system, military service, or any military-related work for three generations.

The Wang family, having implicated their fellow citizens and caused significant military losses, faced consequences as well. The Alliance Military Court declared that those involved in the incident would be dismissed and subjected to investigation. The direct descendants of the Wang family were barred from military service for three generations and prohibited from engaging in any military-related activities.

The alliance should have dismissed Wei Xuan and sentenced him to two years of imprisonment for the murder of Colonel Zhou Ling and his subordinates, in accordance with the alliance’s laws. However, due to a joint petition by Zhou Ling and his other victims to the Prime Minister, the alliance showed leniency and spared Wei Xuan from imprisonment, considering his previous contributions to the alliance.

With the conclusion of the case and the judge’s final announcement, Liao Ning received a system notification that echoed in her mind.

[Ding—Host has triggered a challenging mission: Mental Strength Potion—the Foundation of the Alliance. Mission Requirement: Bring down the Wei family and eliminate their control over the alliance’s mental strength potion. Reward: 2,000 system points, 15 million interstellar space coins, and clues about the Zhou family.]

Following the system notification, a vivid landscape painting instantly appeared in Liao Ning’s thoughts. It bore the signature of the artist and a silver-blue emblem.

“This is the emblem of the empire?!” Liao Ning softly exclaimed. If she didn’t trust that the system wouldn’t deceive her, she might have assumed it was intentionally causing trouble.

She understood that if Zhou Ling’s missing brother and sister-in-law had indeed resurfaced in the empire, it would have far-reaching consequences. The armistice agreement might no longer hold, and she wondered which side, the alliance or the empire, would take the initiative to break the agreement this time.

Zhou Ling approached, noticing Liao Ning’s distressed expression. “Ningning, what’s the matter?”

Taking a deep breath to compose herself, Liao Ning grasped Zhou Ling’s hand and spoke in a hushed tone, “Let’s return home swiftly. I have something crucial to share with you.”

Though Zhou Ling was unaware of the nature of the important matter, he nodded in agreement and instructed the chauffeur to drive their flying car over. He understood that Liao Ning wouldn’t be so flustered over a trivial issue. Whatever she wanted to discuss must be of utmost significance, potentially extending beyond their personal concerns.

“Don’t worry. I’m here with you,” Zhou Ling reassured, gently patting Liao Nings hand.

Liao Ning turned to meet his gaze, offering a reassuring smile. “I’m not anxious. It’s just hard to believe. But let’s discuss it in detail once we’re home.”

“Alright.”

Upon reaching their residence, Liao Ning led Zhou Ling to his study. She accessed the Al system and transmitted the mental image of the landscape painting through her brainwaves. Then, she displayed it on the Al screen for Zhou Ling to see..
