Because the other party agreed too quickly, it made Tilan feel shaken, as if she had a vague feeling that if she accepted the invitation, she would be led astray.
"My sister Audrey is also here, and Hexia will definitely like her." This guy was still so enthusiastic about selling his sister.
Not long after sending the ssage, the other party sent over a photo, which, judging by the angle, seed to be a sneak shot.
In the picture, a girl in a ballet dancer's outfit stood with her back to the dressing mirror, arranging her hair, apparently before going on stage to perform. She looked to be about Tilan's age, with a beautiful curve to her back and long snow-white hair.
'White Swan' Audrey, a 14-year-old songstress with awakened talent, was the sa age as Tilan and currently the little princess popular in the Flying Feather Star Domain.
If she went to the Flying Feather Star Domain to et this songstress of similar age, perhaps she could learn about the related lifestyle for her future as a songstress; thinking of this, Tilan finally accepted the other party's invitation.
Soon, the spaceship started up, communication was cut off, and Tilan rested in her seat.
Because her seat was in a spacious luxury area with no one else around, the spaceship's crew did not disturb her. Thus, most of Tilan's interstellar journey was spent in slumber, and when she woke up, the spaceship had entered the Flying Feather Star Domain and was approaching the 'White Feather-α' star.
Within the Flying Feather Star Domain, there were three habitable planets, six large space stations capable of accommodating tens of millions of people, as well as two gaseous energy planets and three mineral planets; resources were abundant, and the stars were stable. This place was one of the most highly developed star systems in the federation, attracting many corporate companies and bustling with activity.
The faint stars in the distant black cosmos gradually drew closer, and with the passage of ti, the spaceship slowly approached the large Star Harbor outside 'White Feather-α' star.
This Star Harbor was connected to the 'Aquarius Palace' space station, which looked like a massive rotating water bottle from the outside, and its interior housed the largest stage concert hall in the Flying Feather Star Domain, capable of accommodating nearly 200,000 spectators at the sa ti.
[Flight HY-14782 has arrived at White Feather-α, 'Aquarius Palace' space station dock 4, passengers please make sure to carry your personal belongings and disembark in an orderly manner.]
A chanical broadcast sounded, followed by passengers walking out of the spaceship one after another.
Tilan picked up her small suitcase and followed the crowd out. Among the formally-dressed corporate elites, her Dailan-colored dress was particularly eye-catching, and her age was noticeably younger.
In fact, many people on the spaceship recognized the rising songstress, but due to professional courtesy, and considering they often encountered visiting songstresses while working in the Floral Crown Star Domain, they remained calr, though just before entering the Star Harbor, two young female passengers couldn't help but co forward.
"Are you Tilan? Could you please give us an autograph?" As they spoke, they took out their little booklets and then another person handed her a pen.
Just as the girl was about to agree, two plain-clothes guards swiftly erged from the crowd and stood in front of Tilan.
"We ask you two to mind your manners and not to obstruct Miss Tilan here," they said with serious expressions, abruptly cutting off the two staff mbers.
"Sorry, sorry," the two young won apologized quickly and then left.
Tilan could only watch them walk away before the two plain-clothes guards gave her a slight nod, indicating they were from the Federal Central Tribunal, and then they disappeared into the crowd.
It seems the Federal Officials were not completely hands-off after all; she had thought she would be on her own once she arrived at the Flying Feather Star Domain.
Though the protection felt a bit constraining, in a strange environnt, it sohow provided an extra sense of security. Tilan continued on without lingering and pulled her small suitcase through the passageway into the interior of the Star Harbor.
In the vast square of the Star Harbor, the deep blue do was as beautiful as the starry sky, adorned with blue gemstone lamps, and the spacious hall was teeming with information desks and Autonomous Units.
'Hello, I hope to get to 'No. 16, Red Pine Nut Street,' can you tell how to get there?' Tilan stopped in front of a hemispherical Autonomous Unit and asked.
[^_^Hello, I'm currently searching for the route]
[The search is complete, I am now guiding you, the estimated ti is 40 minutes, you can collect water and a small food box in advance at the supply station near the hall.]
[I'm not hungry, thank you, just take there directly.] The girl felt that she had eaten before boarding, and she was still feeling fine now.
[Okay, please follow ヾ(╹◡╹)ﾉ]
A square plate then extended from beneath the hemispherical Autonomous Unit for Tilan to step onto, followed by a transparent barrier at waist height on the side of the girl, which then began to move quickly.
Because the acceleration process was very smooth, the girl hardly felt any shaking, and she could hold onto the projected transparent barrier, which soon whisked her away through the bustling hall towards a passage.
There were quite a few passengers like her along the way, and since these Autonomous Units were interconnected and positioned with each other, their preset routes did not overlap, so there were no collisions.
Standing on the platform, Tilan faced the slight breeze and admired the tidy and grand scenery inside the Star Harbor as she entered a downward spiral passage; on one side, behind transparent glass walls were huge trees about a hundred ters tall, with floating crystal plant bubbles encircling the trunk, where various flowers and plants swam through like fish, and even the air in the passage had a faint scent of grass and trees, rather than the sll of artificial fresheners.
After a few minutes of shuttling, the Autonomous Unit took Tilan out of the Star Harbor area and into the space station's interior before entering an inward high-speed elevator that, in terms of announcing, seed more like so kind of train. It soon launched and then quietly, swiftly transported the passengers to the next stop.
After a journey of about 20 minutes, Tilan stepped off the elevator car, passed through the gravity rotation room, and then ca to a comrcial street in the middle of the space station.
'Red Pine Nut Street,' one of the six main comrcial streets in the Aquarius Palace space station, is famous for its Eastern style. Here, one can see many pedestrians dressed in Eastern ancient-style clothing strolling along the crystal-cobbled streets, while strands of red pine nut knots hang from the lanterns along the sides of the street, emitting a light woody fragrance.
To see such ancient-decorated streets in a fully high-tech space station is, to say the least, a novel experience.
While there were elents of ancient style, the shops, decorations, and the attire of the pedestrians were not rigidly ancient. A more accurate description would be that ancient elents had been added to an existing high-tech environnt; bright red tassels paired with clear crystals, neat typography with phosphorescent projections, and the brilliant, lucky lights accompanied by golden phoenix outlines, gave a sense of traveling through ti and space.
Walking on such streets, Tilan saw many intriguing shops along the way.
[Green Peak Forge], currently selling the new 'Green Shadow - Model 36' retractable Light Saber, manually tunable, with customizable grip and weight, more suitable for high-end combatants. (Several swords stand erect on the altar in front of the shop)
[Snow Silken Robes], tailored from Moonwatch Twelve Strands silk and scented with Thousand Purple Incense, can resist most attacks below Sixth Rank, also accepts exclusive private attire orders. (Through the glass window, rows of magnificent silken robes fill the hall, a spectacular sight)
[Yellow Book Workshop], Wind-Seeking Eight Mountains Plate, Nine Phoenix Neck-Leading Device, Cold Abyss Soul-Settling Incense, Four Beasts and Four Symbols Lamps, Luo Hou Magnetic Star Rifle. (Simple wooden and stone signboards with the sound of burning incense in the emptiness)
[Quiet Heart Library], Calm Spirit Advancent thod, Yin Talisman Seven Stars Scripture, to increase the success rate of advancent, greatly stabilize the mind, and be worth more than its price... (Figures floating as holograms, demonstrating various effects)
[Silver Dew Quick Blade], combining 'Asylan's' speed formula, grounded in Split Wind Sword Technique, with Cloud Travel Wind Body Steps as an auxiliary, to craft your unique combat style. (Silver blades swiftly slicing through the air, followed by the lone figure of a proud silhouette standing atop a projected mountain peak)
[Fire Song Songstress], Red Maple Dusk, Sea and Sky Azure, beautiful and cute Eastern clothing (A pixelation-projected girl makes gestures above the shop)
"Hexia, over here!" Just as the girl was being captivated by the dazzling comrcial street, a voice ca from afar, and a familiar figure dressed in the bamboo coat was waving at her.
Tilan looked over and recognized Feng Jianxue at a glance, but what attracted her attention even more was the girl with snow-white hair in elaborate garnts standing next to Feng Jianxue. She smiled at Tilan and gave a slight bow as if to apologize for her brother's behavior.
