Su Ming accepted the surrender of the Dark Star Empire and offered its generals a place in his army. Afterward, he visited the Dark Star Emperor's tomb. The chapter then jumps forward to a celebration of the Federation's reunification of all human clans, where returning explorers report a lack of new resources.

"No rush, take it slowly! We'll surely find a suitable direction for expansion. Today is a great day for the Federation to reunite, let's not talk about other matters for now."

Long Chen said with a smile.

"Alright!"

Gabres nodded.

At that moment, a fleet of high-end luxurious hovercars arrived, stopping at the edge of the square.

The ceremonial officer loudly announced.

"Queen Apocalypse An Ruoxue has arrived!"

Many reporters quickly pointed their cameras as the car door opened, revealing An Ruoxue in a pristine phoenix robe, wearing a gem crown, white gloves on her hands, elegantly stepping out.

Long Chen and the others smiled as they stepped forward to greet An Ruoxue.

"Queen An Ruoxue, you're here!"

"Gentlemen."

An Ruoxue politely responded.

At this moment, several black hovercars arrived, and the ceremonial officer loudly announced.

"The envoy of the Holy Republic has arrived!"

...

Then, Jikol led Novlin and others out of the car.

Staring at the grand scene before them, they were stunned.

At this moment, more hovercars arrived, Mokduo, Tai Falu, Jyenis, and other clan leaders, along with Hilis and other family members, stepped out of the cars.

The entire square grew increasingly lively.

World Daily reporter Zhang Ya excitedly reported.

"Dear citizens, we can see representatives from the Heavenly Revelation Divine Country, the Holy Republic, and others entering the venue. The atmosphere is becoming more lively, making today destined to be a day recorded in history. Let's witness history together!"

...

Dong~

At this moment, the deep sound of a bell rang, and the originally noisy square instantly quieted down.

"The Council Chairman has arrived!"

The ceremonial officer loudly announced.

Long Chen and the others all turned to look.

Only to see Long Bai dressed in a purple starry robe, with lavender hair draped over his shoulders, adorned with an exquisite phoenix hairpin, with a tear-shaped "Star Trace Tears" necklace on his fair neck, and wearing white lace gloves on his hands, walking up the stage from backstage.

Long Chen and the others stood in position, ready for the commencement of the celebration.

At this moment, all the cameras focused on Long Bai.

Click!

Many reporters pressed their shutters, with continuous flashes lighting up.

Long Bai looked around at the crowd and solemnly began.

"Thank you all for attending and watching this grand ceremony. Today is a very special day. From this moment, humanity once again comes together. I now formally declare that the Federation has successfully achieved reunification!"

As Long Bai's words fell, the crowd burst into applause full of human triumph, excitedly cheering.

"Long live the Federation!"

"Long live Chairman Long Bai!"

...

Whiz! Whiz!

Instantly, countless fireworks soared into the sky.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Numerous fireworks blossomed, their sounds reverberating throughout Starlight City.

Long Bai watched the grand scene before him and smiled slightly, then raised his hand to signal everyone to quiet down.

"Before the feast begins, let's welcome the special guest of this celebration!"

The crowd, upon hearing Long Bai, paused and began to discuss amongst themselves.

"Special guest?"

"Who could it be?"

"No idea, haven't heard anything!"

....

Just as everyone was confused, a fleet of black hovercars arrived at the edge of the square, and the door then opened.

Sakari Captain and Rhein stepped out of the second car and respectfully opened the door to the first car.

General Su Ming stepped out, dressed in a Federation Grand General Uniform, and walked with two others towards the stage, raising his hand to wave at everyone with a smile.

"Hello, everyone! Long time no see!"

The scene suddenly quieted, then erupted with deafening cheers.

"Su Ming!"

"Admiral Su Ming!"

"Lord Su Ming isn't dead!"

...

Long Chen and the others showed expressions of extreme excitement on their faces.

An Ruoxue, Hilis, Vivian, and others saw Su Ming approaching, each with eyes red, smiling brightly.

The reporters on-site eagerly reported.

"Dear citizens, our hero has returned!"

...

At that moment, citizens watching the live broadcast began cheering joyfully.

The atmosphere of the celebration was pushed to a climax.

Su Ming looked at the familiar faces ahead, also showing a brilliant smile, stepping forward onto the stage amid everyone's cheers.

Then Su Ming turned towards the crowd and earnestly spoke.

"I'm sorry to have worried you! I, Su Ming, the Federation Grand General, have returned! I will dedicate the rest of my life to continue protecting the Federation and everyone!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd on-site and citizens worldwide watching erupted into excited cheers!

"Long live General Su Ming!"

"Long live Lord Su Ming!"

...

After a while, Long Bai slowly stepped forward, raising his hand to signal everyone to quiet down.

The fervent crowd quickly calmed down.

"I know everyone is thrilled with Admiral Su Ming's return, but don't be hasty, I have more good news to share!"

Long Bai spoke to everyone.

Long Chen and others looked at Long Bai curiously, wondering what other good news there could be.

Long Bai smiled and announced.

"Admiral Su Ming has returned with a massive amount of high-level ore and resources from the Forbidden God Abyss. The Federation will use these to strengthen itself and return to its peak."

"That's great!"

...

The crowd erupted in joyful shouts at Long Bai's words.

Then Long Bai raised his hand again to signal everyone to quiet down and continued speaking.

"I now formally announce that the Federation will implement a grand cosmic expansion plan. We are about to witness an unprecedented rise!"

Clap! Clap! Clap!

The crowd cheered fervently with applause at Long Bai's declaration.

"Long live the Federation!"

....

Long Bai, seeing the cheering crowd, spoke with a smile.

"Alright, the celebration ceremony ends here. Enjoy this rare celebration freely!"

As his words finished, countless lights rose again, exploding into a splendid display of fireworks in the sky.

Su Ming and Long Bai then stepped down from the stage.

Instantly Long Chen, Gabres, Lord Omid, Shadler, Vice City Lord Okens, and others eagerly approached Su Ming, surrounding him in enthusiasm, each speaking brightly.

"Su Ming, I knew you wouldn't die!"

"When did you come back?"

"Right, why didn't you inform us?"

...

"Haha, I just returned not long ago."

Su Ming laughed and exchanged greetings with everyone.

...

A few hours later.

As the celebration came to its end, Hilis and others stood at the backstage entrance, calling out to Su Ming.

"Su Ming!"

Su Ming, exhausted, turned back and saw Hilis waving at him.

Su Ming quickly said to Ferion and others he was conversing with.
