"What were you planning to do before?"
Star Moon took a moment to respond after some contemplation.
"Take the princess to the Empire."
Ji Xinghe didn't get angry, his tone was calm.
"Can you explain your thinking to me?"
Star Moon exhaled and began to explain.
"I believe that the Empire's true goal is to capture you alive. Even if Tu Yuan's orders were carried out, the Empire would use their Mechas to protect you. Given the presence of the six Empire's Space Battleships at the time, I believed you'd be captured alive and brought to the Empire."
