Although she said this out loud, Su Wan knew that in this universe world where energy resources were scarce, there would never be real peace.
For survival was always the foremost issue for all species.
The Star Thieves and the Insectoids led by Doris had been driven off, and now internal problems arose within the Universe Alliance. Hence, only when you truly beca stronger, and the Empire Planet beca stronger, would your people be able to enjoy a mundane and happy life of peace and tranquility permanently.
The migration of residents had already begun but was not going smoothly, and so of the remaining planets of the Universe Alliance had discussed and decided to salvage the Empire Planet, not wanting it to leave the Universe Alliance.
Before, they had hoped to take advantage of the trouble Gu Jue faced and loot amidst the chaos.
Now that Gu Jue had returned safe and sound, and decisively proposed leaving the Universe Alliance, this group beca anxious, worried about how they would withstand any powerful enemies if they appeared again.
Of course, so planetary leaders believed that in the short term, there would not be enemies as formidable as Lucifer and Doris again, so there was no need for the Empire Planet to return.
For a while, there were endless debates everywhere, and so of the more powerful planets began to take advantage of the situation to make small moves, annexing nearby smaller planets.
anwhile, the Empire Planet continued its migration in an orderly manner, amidst a myriad of opinions on the star network.
So people, in all truth, did not want to leave because they had been born and raised on this planet.
Having seen the comnts online, Su Wan asked Gu Jue curiously, "Ajue, apart from safety factors, are there other considerations for the necessity of migrating to Landis Star?"
Gu Jue nodded, "Because every planet actually has a life span. For instance, Ancient Earth, when life had inhabited it for a certain period, it was necessary to consider leaving."
Su Wan: "Is it a problem with the resources and energy?"
"That’s right."
Su Wan blanked out for a while, retrieved so statistical data from the internet, and said, "But our main star currently doesn’t have a problem with energy resource depletion."
"There’s no problem in the short term, but migration can’t be achieved in the short term either. If we waited until everyone else realized this point, migration would likely beco more troubleso, and moreover, it could attract the covetousness of other planets."
Gu Jue paused, realized Su Wan was not asking anymore, and took the initiative to say, "Our Imperial Family has a device passed down that asures a planet’s resources and energy, guarded by soone specially appointed. According to recent data, in three years, there will be a noticeable depletion of energy resources."
Su Wan’s mouth fell open, "Is that the secret of the Imperial Family that Xiaochen ntioned before?"
"Yes."
"But why are you telling this? There’s no problem, right?"
Gu Jue stretched out his arm to pull his delicate wife into his embrace, "What are you worrying about? By marrying , you beca a mber of the Imperial Family as well, didn’t you? Before, we did not tell you because we had no plans to migrate, and Black Tortoise had not reported any signs of energy depletion."
Su Wan suddenly understood, "This Black Tortoise is the huge, talking tortoise Xiaochen ntioned before, right? Is he a Star Beast or a Beastman?"
"I’m not clear on that either. Ever since our Gu Family began ruling a planet, he has been there."
Su Wan was astounded, this age was definitely equivalent to that of an ancient ancestor.
Whichever mber of the Gu Family sat on the throne, they all treated Black Tortoise with great respect, and as Black Tortoise grew older, his personality beca even more serene. He had beco just like a family mber to the Gu Family.
**
Migrating a planet was a big affair, so Gu Jue would be busy for a long ti. anwhile, Su Wan decided to focus on the children during this period.
Although the children were still young, they were both very healthy. Especially Little Gu Yu, this child had an especially bright and lively personality and greeted everyone with a radiant smile, the very image of a little heartthrob.
This personality trait didn’t actually resemble that of Su Wan or Gu Jue much. Su Wan thought carefully about the people around her, but couldn’t figure out whom the child took after.
Just then, Su Xiaoge ca to visit Su Wan with Pandora. Pandora had visited before, but this ti she ca with Su Xiaoge, and Gu Qingyu and Ouyang Qing were with them as well.
Su Xiaoge said carelessly, "I feel like Little Gu Yu is a lot like !"
The group fell into a slightly awkward silence before turning to look at Su Wan. Although they were siblings, they weren’t actually blood relatives. If the resemblance were true...
However, Su Wan remained calm and said, "Su Ni acts just like this when he’s not being foolish. Right now, I just hope the child’s IQ is up to par."
When they were leaving, in the flying vehicle, Pandora kicked Su Xiaoge sowhat speechlessly. "What nonsense are you spouting? Daring to say the child looks like you. Why didn’t you say that in front of Commander Gu?"
"I—I was just saying it, I hadn’t thought too much about it. Besides, logically speaking, it’s impossible for and Xiaowan to have anything going on," replied Su Xiaoge with an innocent face.
After a mont of silence, Pandora gave a serious nod, "Indeed, looking at your foolishness, if Xiaowan chose you over Commander Gu, she would definitely be blind."
"Then why did you choose ?" asked Su Xiaoge.
"Wasn’t it because there was no other choice?" retorted Pandora.
"..."
Taking a deep breath, Su Xiaoge said calmly, "Let’s go, back ho to the cha Room for a fight."
"Sure."
The communication thod between these two was interesting. Whenever they were upset or at odds, they’d simply go to the family’s cha Room and have a fight. Since they were only sparring, they wouldn’t go too hard on each other. After all, repairing a damaged ch would still cost their own money.
Usually, after a hearty fight, they would forget all prior grievances and make up as if nothing had happened.
Su Wan didn’t make much of it; after all, it was an impossibility. But she noticed that the atmosphere at ho was a bit odd, as if Xiaochen’s pet octopus seed to be very afraid of Xiaoyan?
This was an impossible thing. Xiaoyan was so soft and harmless, not to ntion extrely timid. Currently, aside from her family, she would get teary-eyed at the sight of strangers.
Xiaochen’s Star Beast octopus had been with them for many years and wasn’t a juvenile... Even if it was a juvenile, it shouldn’t be afraid of Xiaoyan.
Not believing in superstitions, Su Wan had Xiaochen bring the fish tank over to Xiaoyan. Xiaoyan looked at the pink octopus with its eight legs and scrunched her forehead with a bit of fear, then hugged her Little Mushroom tightly.
And the little octopus in the fish tank... had been scared stiff, turning into an eight-legged starfish!
Su Wan said, "What’s going on, Xiaochen? Is your octopus sick or sothing? Maybe we should make it into takoyaki or grilled octopus."
Little Gu Chen said, "I’m not sure either, but Mom, if the octopus is sick, can we still eat it?"
Little Octopus: "..."
It suddenly curled up its eight legs and ford into a little ball, looking utterly aggrieved.
This family was full of devils!
Then, an even more terrifying presence arrived!
