Chapter 21: Interstellar Situation

Jiang Yulian did not expect that she had unknowingly garnered the disgust of many people.

After all, it was no longer just You Wei in the livestream room who was letting his imagination run wild.

It is a known fact that Jiang Qin has just reached adulthood; she is only 18.

According to Interstellar Law, it is impossible for her to be so knowledgeable about such matters while still a minor.

Even if she lived on a barren planet, it would be impossible; even if she had been trafficked, they would have waited until she reached adulthood.

Because underage females cannot utilize spiritual power, if they were to mate before reaching adulthood, their spiritual seas would likely collapse.

What difference is there between an orc female without spiritual power and a pure human female?

Therefore, as a healthy C-grade female, Jiang Qin certainly could not have experienced such things.

That leaves only the possibility that she had seen it, or someone had described it to her.

What kind of terrible person would describe such things to an underage female? That is too much!

A group of people, having turned on their translators, were gnashing their teeth in anger behind their light screens.

The barrage began to turn chaotic.

[Does anyone know who Jiang Qin’s family is? Why didn’t they protect the little female well?]

[How could they let a little female be exposed to such things so early? Don’t they know that Interstellar Law prohibits the enticement of female cubs? This is against the law!]

Tragedies of this nature had occurred in the interstellar space before, which is why it is stipulated that minors are not allowed to be exposed to knowledge regarding mating until they reach adulthood.

It is even more strictly forbidden for males to entice females.

After all, young females are highly likely to make the wrong choices out of curiosity or a momentary surge of emotion.

Once such a thing happens, they lose an orc female.

In an era where the gender ratio is so imbalanced, this is undoubtedly a huge loss.

Therefore, once someone is found to have done such a thing, they are sentenced to heavy penalties without exception.

They did not expect that in today’s interstellar society, there would still be people so unafraid of death, attempting to harm a little female.

Fortunately, Jiang Qin grew up safely; otherwise, they would have lost another C-grade female.

However, only a small portion of those who truly became "true love fans" thought this deeply; most people were still just praising the song for being good.

***

After the song ended, Jiang Qin finally had time to look at the barrage.

She only then noticed that Interstellar Law actually had such a clause!

She quickly reminded everyone, "If you edit and post these videos, remember to set this song as restricted for minors to listen to or watch."

[Don't worry, Qinqin, we wouldn't make such a principled mistake.]

[Abiding by the law is a responsibility that every citizen should have engraved in their genes!]

[Protecting the cubs is everyone's duty.]

"Alright, since you all think this song is fine, let's move on to the next one."

[No problem, what could be the problem? The adult world should express itself so straightforwardly. It’s good, very good!]

[Change to another minority language and give us another one!]

[Change to another minority language and give us another one! +1]

...

The barrage was once again occupied by a large number of people with ulterior motives.

Jiang Qin narrowed her eyes; there was some inner fluctuation, but not much.

Being targeted meant she was truly blocking someone else's path. If she wanted to continue pushing forward on this path, she would inevitably have to compete with others.

These were all just open, legitimate tactics.

Anyway, she wasn't afraid of being made things difficult for; after all, if it weren't difficult, how would it show her strength?

After today's incident, she believed that if any plagiarism accusations or similar things appeared in the future, people wouldn't be so easily led by the nose.

At the end of the day, the reason she was most criticized was her background from a barren planet.

People living on high-level planets simply couldn't accept being surpassed by someone who had nothing.

If even a female who hadn't studied could be better than them, then what were all their years of hard work and training worth?

But Jiang Qin didn't feel that her "cheat" was unfair to others at all.

Although she was luckier than others—having died twice and survived both times, and even having a system—she hadn't suffered any less.

In this world, there is no such thing as absolute fairness.

Some people never reach Rome in their entire lives, while others are born in Rome.

Do people living on high-level planets think that having a good background is unfair to those from low-level planets?

No.

They only think they are lucky.

Therefore, possessing the system, she only considered herself lucky.

Moreover, the "pie" of the system wasn't so easy to eat either.

If this system weren't damaged, what kind of tasks would it issue, and what kind of punishments would there be? Who knows?

Opportunities are always accompanied by risks.

***

For the third song, the barrage didn't have any specific requests, just that it had to be in another minority language.

Even the most obtuse person could tell that the barrage was acting strangely now.

Hua Yue was quite angry at the barrage at this moment.

"Sister, do you think these people really like Jiang Qin? If they like her, why are they deliberately making things difficult for her?"

"Most people don't have the time to learn minority languages. Jiang Qin even learned a Xizhou language; she's only 18, how could she know so many?"

Hua Rong naturally saw it too; someone was deliberately making things difficult for Jiang Qin. But what could they do? There were only four people in their dormitory, and even if they posted barrages frantically, it was useless.

They were buried by these paid trolls in less than a second.

An Zeyu’s fingers were sore from clicking, but it was useless. He thought about the seven songs left and couldn't let these people get their way!

So, he quickly went to the group chat to call for reinforcements.

While these silent supporters were frantically calling for help, Jiang Qin had already picked up her guitar.

She actually did know several languages.

Those who love to sing basically know a little bit of everything.

Even if she couldn't speak them, she could sing them. After all, learning a language isn't easy, but learning a song is much simpler.

Especially since there are so many talented people on the internet—what song doesn't have a Chinese transliteration available?

"This song is a Cantonese song. Cantonese is a minority language of the Central Continent."

[I know, I know! There are still quite a few families on our planet who speak Cantonese, though they can't even speak it standardly themselves anymore.]

[I heard there used to be a type of opera sung in Cantonese, but no one knows how to do it anymore; only the text remains in the archives.]

[My family speaks Cantonese, but my mother can't even speak it well. No one in our generation learns it; we can only barely understand some of it.]

[We really lost too much during the migration.]

[Yeah, most things nowadays are passed down in a distorted way, and everyone yearns more for everything in the Empire.]

[If it weren't for the first leader insisting on preserving everything from the mother planet, we might have forgotten where our ancestors came from by now.]

[I just don't like the Empire. They look at us the same way the citizens of the main planet look at the citizens of the trash planets.]

[What can we do? We really are inferior to the Empire in every way.]

Everyone fell silent.

It wasn't just in entertainment that they couldn't compare to the Empire; in terms of strength, the Federation was also inferior to the Empire.

For so many years, there had been friction between the two sides, and the Federation had always been the side that endured.

If the Empire weren't afraid of pushing them too far—at which point both sides would fight to the death and let the exotic beasts reap the benefits—they probably would have gone to war long ago.

It was only because of enemies like exotic beasts and cosmic creatures that the two sides occasionally joined forces and cooperated.
