"It seems we must finish this quickly."

"Otherwise, little Angelina will definitely blame us for not doing our job."

Jack the Digger planned to speed up, aiming for a chance to snatch food from the tiger's mouth.

At this moment, after receiving a phone call, Angelina hurriedly arrived at a starry palace.

The palace stood silently in the nighttime, bathed in starlight that seemed to fall like rain, embedding itself on its green tiles and golden eaves.

The glazed tiles sparkled with starry brilliance under the cleansing starlight, like the brightest stars in the night sky.

The stars on the palace were arranged according to the Zodiac.

Countless starlights fell into the palace, emitting a starry blue glow.

Numerous star spirits were moving in midair in accordance with astrological rules.

The interior of the palace was deep and mysterious, with intertwining light and shadows, and palace lamps extending endlessly like a river of stars.

Dots of starlight surged into the palace, gathering into star spirits.

These star spirits were a crucial element in guarding the palace, and could combine to form a large barrier.

At this time, Angelina walked into the palace.

As soon as she entered, she got lost in the starry sky.

However, she was not panicked; instead, she closed her eyes, hearing the sound of wind in her ears.

She waited until the wind sounds disappeared before opening her eyes.

The night draped low inside the palace, with stars twinkling here and there.

A mass of starlight floated in the sky like a moon surrounded by stars.

Countless stars took this mass of starlight as their leader.

This starlight was as tranquil as ever, seemingly merged with the world, unrelated to earthly noise and disturbances.

Countless star spirits sprinkled tiny lights, following the direction of the Zodiac's rotation.

Vaguely, there seemed to be a thirteenth palace emerging.

"Angelina, you disappointed me this time."

An ethereal voice emerged from the starlight.

Angelina immediately trembled all over, falling to one knee with her head sweating a bit.

"Great Star Spirit King Lord."

"It was my wrongdoing."

Angelina didn't know exactly what had happened, so she preemptively admitted her mistake.

"Ha, admitting your mistake rather quickly."

"The Space King complained to me that the agents you meticulously trained caused a commotion on a deserted island and even dared to activate a shielding device."

"Angelina, you really have guts, blatantly attacking participants in an international competition."

"You've trampled on the reputation of our Beautiful Country."

"You should be more discreet in your work. If the participants discover us, we can't kill everyone to keep the secret, right?"

The Star Spirit King's speech was slow, but carried a penetrating coldness.

He was a murderous individual, though recently his self-cultivation had calmed him considerably.

Angelina broke out in a cold sweat, like a thorn in her back.

The normally eloquent mouth seemed silenced, with her mind going blank, unable to think of a single word of defense.

"However, considering it's your first offense, I'll let you off this time."

"If there's a next time, I'll extract your soul and make you a star spirit without any consciousness."

The Star Spirit King said coldly, making Angelina feel like she had fallen into an ice cellar.

She felt like her limbs were no longer her own at that moment.

"I've already spoken to the Space King to use the Power of Space to shield the monitoring on the deserted island."

"You all must finish the mission quickly."

"Try not to let anyone notice anything amiss; I don't want to be cleaning up your mess every day."

"That researcher from the Flame Country possesses terrifying talents, and I don't want another Su Qingxian to appear."

"It was hard enough to get Chu Han to join the Evangelical Association. The same trick won't work on Flame Country anymore; they're already on guard."

"Solve this quickly."

"I'm not questioning you, but there's a way to do things, and when things are done improperly, criticism is needed."

Angelina nodded with understanding.

"Rest assured, Star Spirit King Lord, I will take the opportunity to eliminate Ye Bai."

"But regarding the Storm Giant Dragon's arrival?"

"How should we respond?"

Angelina looked up at the vast starlight in the air.

"That is not something you should worry about."

"The Storm Giant Dragon and we do not interfere with each other. As long as we provide enough souls, it will leave once it's gained its benefits."

"For now, let the Storm Giant Dragon vent freely, and don't do anything that would anger it."

"This is not only my opinion but also the stance of our Eight Kings and the powers supporting us behind the scenes."

"Angelina, I hope you're a smart person."

The Star Spirit King's meaning was very clear: let the Storm Giant Dragon cause trouble while they watched indifferently. As long as their own interests weren't violated, the Eight Kings would not act.

As for where the souls would come from, Angelina knew very well.

"Do your job well; I've hit a bottleneck recently, and I plan to retreat for a while. There's no need to report everything to me; make your own decisions."

With that said, the scene around Angelina shifted, and she found herself at the entrance of the palace.

"It seems even the typically uninvolved Star Spirit King can sense the great threat posed by the rise of the Flame Country."

"So, Ye Bai, I must keep you here."

"You can't blame me for being ruthless; anything not for the Beautiful Country's use must be completely destroyed."
