Through a doorway entered a man in a black suit. He had an Eastern complexion that rivaled those of movie stars, and his long black hair was almost to his thighs, yet every single strand seemed to have been tenderly combed, smooth to its tips. It made people want to… ask him what brand of shampoo he used.

Although he had the oriental look, his attire resembled that of western nobility. In his hand, he held a silver cane. But despite him looking refined and courteous, the words that flowed out of his mouth were anything but polite.

“Since when did a small space station had the right to exercise the powers of the galactic law court? You claim to be innocent so you are acquitted?” His eyes narrowed as he stared directly at Lu Ren, who stood on the side.

“Yan… Yan Xuan, min… minister.” Lu Ren’s eyes were wide open from shock, as if he couldn’t take this revelation. His entire person was frozen on the spot.

Yan Xuan took two steps forward, and his smile widened. “Oh, so you recognize me.”

“…”

Obviously! There was no one in the entire galaxy who didn’t know about this devil, the minister of foreign affairs of the bloodling Red Planet, in charge of everything connected to other species. Other than the man whose existence was legendary, the most famous person of the bloodlings was this person.

What was frightening about him was not his noble status among the bloodlings, but that mouth which could talk the dead out of their graves. To put it into simple words, he specialized in picking a hole in everything and wouldn’t give up until he had shed a layer of skin from his opponent. It was safe to say that you could see his figure in every brawl the bloodlings were involved in, and these brawls would usually escalate into racial wars.

If ordinary bloodlings had an issue, then this minister would have an issue. Other people’s ministries of foreign affairs were all set up to resolve disputes, but his, however, was to blow those disputes out of proportion.

“Minister Yan… Why… you… you came in person?” Why would the bloodlings send this devil to pick up the person! Lu Ren’s heart became a land of barrennes, and he could indistinctly hear the sound of “game over”.

“I heard you were demanding an explanation from the minister of foreign affairs.” Yan Xuan smiled extremely gently and said, “See, so here I am to give Commander Lu our explanation.”

“Ha, haha, hahaha…” Lu Ren’s sadness had become a river flowing inside him, slowly drowning him. He had a strong urge to travel back in time and slap himself across the face multiple times. Why did he ask for trouble and jinx himself? “Misunderstanding… It’s a misunderstanding…”

Explanation? It looked like this time he would have to hand over his life here.

“Things will be so much easier now, since the commander knows me.” Yan Xuan automatically ignored the last half of Lu Ren’s sentence. Setting down his cane, he added, “But before I provide an explanation to your station, I would like to ask the great Commander Lu a question. Slandering my kind as intruders; examining our genes without permission; and imprisoning a member of our kind for several days, what kind of an explanation do you plan to offer me for these things?”

“Mi… Minister Yan.”

“Oh wait, there’s one more…” His eyes suddenly became stern, and he said, “Attempting to deceive a newborn of my kind into agreeing to an unequal treaty without the presence of their guardian.”

Lu Ren felt his legs give away, and he almost knelt down on the floor. He had actually heard it just then, it was all over, all over…

His eyes dulled, and the words “endangered species” immediately emerged in bold in his mind. Mama, he was going to be condemned as the sinner of his species.
