Chapter 004: The Seven Wheels of Colorful Moonlight (Part Two)

I have too many worries; I fear I may not live that long

The Qiu family residence is quite large; although it cannot be considered a mansion in the capital star of the Pandora galaxy, it can certainly be described as magnificent, elegant, and grand. It has a total of four floors, symbolizing four generations living together; with a domed white exterior, a lawn garden, large paintings and sculptures adorning the walls, and green rose vines climbing over the railings

Wang Liang walked slowly alongside him and said with a smile, "In three years, I will be forty. However, I do not admit that I am old, and the old master is not old either; at least he can live to be a hundred years old"

However, if we do not purchase ingredients on the Purple Moon, our restaurant will go out of business. Qiu Ci gazed at the farthest purple moon in the night sky, her eyes shimmering with brilliance

After placing the autumn poem on her bed, Old Man Qiu helped her cover up with a soft pink quilt. Seeing her still staring at him with a pair of big, sparkling eyes, he smiled and said, "Good night, my little lady"

The seven planets and the capital star that they surround constitute the largest eight celestial bodies in the Pandora star system, and they are also the most affluent and prosperous main inhabited stars of the Alliance. Nina star is located at a great distance from them, so far that everyone can only gaze up at the seven colorful moons shining brightly.

"Master, allow me to carry the Fourth Miss," Wang Liang stepped forward and said

Old Master Qiu smiled helplessly, a hint of indulgence flashing in his eyes. He bent down to lift Qiu from the chair into his arms and slowly walked towards the door. Standing at the entrance was Wang Liang, the old steward of the Qiu family. Ever since the Qiu family purchased this residence, he had been working for them, having witnessed the gradual development and growth of the Qiu family.

"Yao Yue Xing, such a beautiful name," Qiu Ci said with a soft laugh. "Grandfather, we can buy cultivated meat and vegetables on Yao Yue Xing. Why don't we go there to purchase them?"

In fact, Liu Yan is a woman at heart, yearning for that kind of simple and warm familial affection. This warmth cannot be provided by her adoptive father, the pirate captain, nor by the pirates who fight alongside her every day. Instead, it is through her rebirth in the body of Qiu Ci that she deeply feels this longing. She craves the embrace of family, cherishes the doting gaze of Old Master Qiu, and even this pink, dreamy room is an imagination she could only dream of. These things are precious and hard-won for her; she has unknowingly accepted her new identity and equally wishes to help her family through this difficult time.

"Activate the Divine Battle System!" Qiu Ci lay on her bed, silently reciting a phrase in her heart. This mysterious system, which had inexplicably appeared in her mind, had allowed her to be reborn after her death in a previous life, and perhaps it held the key to overcoming her current difficulties

Old Master Qiu furrowed his brows, glanced at the enchanting and stunning purple moon hanging in the sky, and said: "That is the Purple Moon Planet, also known as the Demon Moon Star. It is the most chaotic planet within the Alliance, frequently visited by interstellar pirates, and is not a peaceful place."

The conference room is located at the innermost part of the ground floor. Old Master Qiu, holding Qiu Ci, walked through the corridor on the ground floor. When they reached the courtyard, Qiu Ci, who had been resting her eyes on his shoulder, suddenly opened her eyes. At that moment, her eyes showed no trace of the confusion typical of someone just waking up; they were as clear as a tranquil well that had been calm for a thousand years, reflecting seven brilliantly radiant moons.

After years of war and unrestrained exploitation, Purple Moon has long been riddled with wounds. The government of the Pandora Star System Alliance dispatched ships to relocate the Alliance citizens on Purple Moon to other planets. Consequently, Purple Moon became the first abandoned planet of the Alliance. However, it did not fall into desolation; instead, it transformed into a trading hub for interstellar pirates, smugglers, and other underground forces, becoming the most prosperous yet chaotic planet.

At the age of six, Qiu Ci developed autism due to the death of her parents. No one in the family could get close to her, except for her grandfather, who persisted day after day, drop by drop, until Qiu Ci finally stopped rejecting him. This granddaughter was too cold, living solely in her own world. Therefore, her grandfather adorned her world with pink, ensuring that her realm remained a warm and dreamy kingdom

Wang Liangxin, knowing that Old Master Qiu wanted some peace and quiet, simply replied "yes" and quietly withdrew

The bedroom of Qiu Ci is not large; because it is small, it feels very warm. The pink curtains, pink pillows, pink bedding, and pink sheets—all the visible furnishings are essentially painted in shades of pink. Pink is a warm color that gives a dreamy and reassuring feeling, and all this pink decor is the handiwork of the old gentleman Qiu, the traditional and conservative patriarch of the Qiu family

I hope you old fellow can get it right this time, you should go back and get some sleep, you can't handle the hustle and bustle at your age

Good night, esteemed gentlemen!" replied Qiu Ci.

Certainly, this is merely a memory of Qiu Ci and the emotions it evokes. She is no longer the person she once was; the current Qiu Ci has fundamentally changed at her core, now embodying the soul of Liu Yan, the renowned leader of the Red Spider Interstellar Pirate Fleet thirty years later, known as Sister Pink. Liu Yan, with her striking reputation and formidable style, has always been a figure loathed by various powers across the star systems.

I like that purple moon The crisp voice of the autumn poem rang in the ears of the old autumn gentleman

Hmm. Qiuci nodded obediently, resting her head on his shoulder and falling silent. Although she did not entirely agree with what Old Master Qiu said, in a certain sense, it could be said that merchants are gamblers, and they are the most daring and reckless gamblers among all. However, she did not wish to refute his words; her grandfather's words brought her a warmth from deep within, a sense of being cared for and protected by family

Old Master Qiu patiently explained: "Because it is too dangerous on Ziyue Star, even if you manage to purchase the ingredients, there is no guarantee you can bring them out of Ziyue Star. Even if you do manage to bring them out, there are many space pirates on the way back through the stars. At that point, losing everything would be the least of your worries; the most frightening scenario is the loss of life and the destruction of the ship"

The seven moons represent seven celestial bodies, which revolve around the capital star of the Pandora Galaxy Alliance in a cyclical manner, day after day, year after year. They emit the seven colors of red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple, shining brilliantly in the night sky, adorned with twinkling stars, further enhancing the extraordinary beauty of these seven colorful moons.

The Purple Moon Star, due to its production of the exceptionally hard Purple Moon Ore, has attracted the covetous attention and competition of various factions. The Purple Moon Ore can be refined into a substance known as Purple Moon Gold, which is an important material for the early manufacturing of mechas and spaceship hulls. However, as it takes hundreds of tons of Purple Moon Ore to refine just one pound of Purple Moon Gold, it is particularly precious.

The difficulties faced by the restaurant can always be resolved; can a living person really die from being unable to relieve themselves? My lord, do not worry; there may suddenly be a turning point. Wang Liang, aware of the recent predicament of the Qiu family restaurant, offered his consolation.

In the year 4550 of the Star Era, Sister Pink's pirate fleet was surrounded and annihilated by the Pandora Galaxy Alliance and the Book Army. She unexpectedly reincarnated into the body of Qiu Ci, the fourth daughter of the Qiu family, who had just died from a severe illness. Now, a month has passed, and she has already come to understand that she has become Qiu Ci. It is now the year 4520 of the Star Era, and she has actually been reborn thirty years into the past

The alliance forces, pirate factions, other galactic powers, and the private armed forces of interstellar merchant organizations began a protracted struggle on Purple Moon Star. This battle lasted for thirty years, until a new type of material, superior to Purple Moon Crystal, emerged and quickly replaced the status of Purple Moon Gold, becoming the primary material for mechs and spaceship hulls, leading to the eventual obscurity of Purple Moon Star.

"Autumn Poem, we are merchants, not gamblers; we do not engage in life-and-death matters," the old man of autumn said earnestly, regardless of whether his little granddaughter could understand.

Old Master Qiu shook his head, his aged voice filled with emotion: "Old Wang, you have been in this family for nearly forty years, haven't you? Time really flies; in the blink of an eye, we have both grown old."

Growing up among a group of rough, bloodthirsty, and passionate men, Liu Yan was influenced by her surroundings. To put it nicely, she possessed a bold and generous character akin to that of a man; to put it less kindly, she was somewhat of a tomboy. Especially after her adoptive father, the captain of an interstellar pirate ship, handed over the captaincy to her, she took command of the entire pirate fleet and became a feared figure known as the "Pink Sister" across the galaxy
