Shi Mian spent eighteen years living on a desolate planet within the Federation.

On the day of his coming-of-age, he awakened as a Guide. To escape the clutches of the Federation, his spirit beast—a nine-tailed white fox—manifested in response to his will. He slaughtered the Federation lackeys and seized one of their starships.

Just like that, the newly adult Shi Mian flew the ship without a license, eventually crashing onto a desolate planet in the Empire due to mechanical failure.

Shi Mian: “…”

He discovered that he couldn’t open the hatch.

When the starship was finally pried open from the outside, Shi Mian stood at the threshold with a cold expression, meeting the gazes of a crowd.

Everyone was stunned, especially the Empire’s Admiral, Gu Fenghan, and the Third Prince of the Empire, who was training in the military under a hidden identity.

…Could someone explain to them why this youth looked exactly like their Majesty?

The Empire and the Federation had enjoyed years of peace, but their greatest battle occurred eighteen years ago.

It was the most successful battle for the former Imperial Admiral, Qin Jinglan, yet also his greatest failure. He had protected his lover, the Emperor, and defended the Empire’s borders, but in the process, he lost the fourth child he and his lover had just brought into the world.

From that day on, Qin Jinglan fell into despair. He resigned from his post, passing it to his student, Gu Fenghan, and spent the rest of his life scouring the galaxy for his youngest child.

Years later, Shi Mian, driving a stolen starship, would accidentally crash land on that very same desolate planet.
