A Low Rank Female Goes Viral Across the Galaxy-Chapter 131: Life Is a Little Interesting

When Jiang Qin took the stage, all she could see were the dense clusters of glowing support signs around her.

The lights were too dim for her to recognize anyone she knew.

She was wearing a sweet yet edgy outfit today: a tank top, a pleated skirt, and sneakers.

A guitar was slung across her back as she walked onto the stage.

Her long, black hair was tied in a high ponytail, and her makeup was a bit dramatic.

Especially the fiery red of her lips.

Without much preamble, she just said, "Today’s a good day, so I’d like to bring you all a few new songs."

"The first is ’Ordinary Road.’"

Her slender, pale fingers danced lightly across the guitar strings.

A beautiful, chiming intro began to play.

"Wandering on the road

Are you leaving? Via, via

Fragile and proud

That was once me as well..."

Her gentle voice filled the entire venue.

Just from that opening, everyone understood this was another song filled with a sense of story.

It was unmistakably Jiang Qin’s usual style.

"I once crossed mountains and the Sea

And waded through seas of people

Everything I once possessed

Vanished like smoke in the blink of an eye..."

In a dimly lit corner, Lan Yuyan’s eyes were fixed on the small figure on the high stage.

He savored the feeling of pure bliss washing over him.

The song was peculiar; it gave listeners a sense of carefree liberation.

’Life should be like this—with tears and laughter, hardships and hope. You meet many people and walk many roads.’

Meanwhile, many people who couldn’t be there in person were listening in a livestream chat room.

In a garrison dormitory on the Third-level Planet, Tamu Star, someone had projected the livestream directly.

"Is that the female who beat the Imperial people?"

Ding Yi nodded, his gaze toward Jiang Qin filled with adoration and longing.

"Her singing is beautiful, isn’t it?"

His roommate, though not a fan of music, had to admit that listening to something like this before bed wasn’t bad.

After all, nights always made one sentimental.

On the screen, Jiang Qin was singing:

"I once fell into endless darkness

Struggling, unable to break free

I was once like you, like him

Like the wild grass and wildflowers..."

Ding Yi’s comrade in the next bunk was lying with his hands clasped behind his head, staring blankly at the ceiling.

He suddenly spoke up. "I don’t know why, but all of a sudden, I feel like this short life... is actually pretty interesting."

In truth, he had been feeling exhausted lately.

Endless Alien Beasts to kill, ceaseless training.

Plus his rising Riot Value and the long waiting list for appeasement.

He didn’t know why he was still alive, day after day.

No one was waiting for him.

And no one needed him.

During today’s battle with an Alien Beast, he had nearly died in its jaws.

In that moment, he felt no fear, but rather a sense that the day had finally come.

He wasn’t the only one; many others felt the same way.

They held the front lines purely out of belief.

But for some reason, after hearing the song’s gentle melody, his mind suddenly relaxed.

’I feel like there’s been something wrong with my mindset.’

’How long has it been since I’ve truly tried to live...?’

He didn’t know when it started, but his thoughts had grown increasingly negative and pessimistic.

He began to forget his beliefs and the effort he’d once put in to join the garrison.

He forgot the joy he’d felt when he was successfully enlisted.

All he could remember was how exhausting training was and how hard the Alien Beasts were to kill.

And yet, he’d once cheered for killing Alien Beasts...

’Looking back, there was heartache and joy, but no regrets.’

’Every decision I made, at every moment, was what I wanted to do at the time.’

’So, my life isn’t actually that bad.’

’It seems this life is pretty interesting after all.’

Ding Yi didn’t know why his comrade was having such a profound realization, but he agreed with his words.

"It really is pretty interesting."

’They had climbed mountains, killed Alien Beasts, drifted through the stars for months, endured great hardship, and witnessed much of life and death.’

’It’s a brilliant life, really.’

「...」

By now, Jiang Qin had begun her second song, "Thousand-Year Love."

It also had a beautiful intro, with a unique sound like striking wind chimes.

Lan Yuyan couldn’t help but marvel. It seemed the intro to every one of her songs was exceptional.

Just a short snippet was enough to capture everyone’s ears.

The kind that made you stop scrolling and listen if you happened to come across it.

He was right. On the Star Network’s streaming platforms, many people were just passing by the channels that were livestreaming the Moonlight Bar.

They were instantly hooked by a song’s intro.

"From lamplit bamboo groves to deserts I have crossed

A seven-colored kingdom drifts in the wind

A mysterious gray vortex

Has pulled me into the mist..."

The stage’s background changed to images of an ancient kingdom.

"Hiss... This song seems to have a sense of destiny."

’The title is "Thousand-Year Love," isn’t it? It really makes you feel that deep emotion that transcends time and space. And the lyrics paint such a vivid picture...’

Ackman felt his inspiration strike.

He immediately opened his Light Computer and began to write a script:

(The male lead is a garrison warrior who, during a battle against a beast tide, accidentally falls into a black hole.

When he wakes up again, he finds himself in a strange place.

He was saved by a beautiful and gentle female.

From her, he learns that he has somehow arrived in the world a thousand years in the future.

In this future, all inhabited Interstellar planets have built advanced protective shields, completely keeping the Alien Beasts out in space.

The war is over. The Federation, the Empire, and the Myriad Races have merged.

The number of females, while still small, is now almost equal to the number of males.

A thousand years in the future, every male is able to start a family with a female.

The warrior has no family or friends in this new world, so he can only follow the young female who saved him home.

After spending a long time together, they fall in love.

But...

Ackman paused for a moment before continuing to write: But the new world suddenly announces a new invention.

The black hole shuttle.

The warrior now has hope of returning home. He is caught in a dilemma, torn between his lover and his family and responsibilities.

In the end, he decides to try to return home using the black hole shuttle.

His young female understands him and says she is willing to follow him back a thousand years into the past.

But the warrior refuses.

He is unwilling to let the young female take such a risk with him, nor does he want her to give up everything to gamble on an unknown possibility.

She should have her own life, her own family, friends, and home.

Even if they are separated by two different eras, he would be content just knowing that she is living well in her own world.)

「...」

Having written to the end, Ackman saved his work with satisfaction.

He had a hunch this movie would be a massive hit!

What male could possibly refuse a future where everyone could marry a female?

’None,’ he thought, ’because males understand males best.’

Then, he would just have to talk to Miss Jiang Qin about the rights to this song to use it as the movie’s opening theme.

Ah, perfect!
