The beautiful woman turned her head to look at Lu Lingfeng, her face showing a worried expression.
"What if we encounter Star Thieves on the way? Once he arrives there, unfamiliar with the place, and being so young, he'll definitely be bullied..."
"Alright, stop worrying irrationally."
Lu Lingfeng said calmly, "I specifically had him travel with the Eternal Day Comrce fleet. Even if they run into Star Thieves, nothing will happen.
I've already made so contacts on Lilva Star, plus he has Lu Feng with him, so there won't be any problems."
"I know you've considered everything thoroughly, but what if sothing happens? We only have this one son..."
The beautiful woman bit her lip and said, "Can't we find another place for him to stay, one that's closer to us?"
"You'll have to ask him about that.
Lilva Star was the place he specifically wanted to go."
Lu Lingfeng thought for a mont and said, "Letting him struggle a bit on his own outside can be good for him; otherwise, he always seems immature.
Besides, even if he didn't ask to go this ti, I was planning to send him out to avoid so trouble..."
Upon hearing Lu Lingfeng's words, the beautiful woman's expression tightened, and she couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? Did sothing happen?"
Lu Lingfeng, with a calm deanor, replied, "It's nothing significant.
Just so issues with Lu Hui.
She just inford a couple of days ago, advising to prepare sowhat..."
"Lu Hui?!"
The beautiful woman was taken aback upon hearing the na.
"Is there a problem with Lu Hui at the Guangzao Family?"
The beautiful woman wasn't too familiar with the na Lu Hui.
She only knew that she was Lu Lingfeng's younger sister, who had married into a top aristocratic family of Duoling long ago.
There are many rules in rich families; once you're in, there's no longer the freedom of an ordinary person.
So after marrying Lu Lingfeng, she had only t Lu Hui a few tis.
Her understanding of this sister-in-law mostly ca from Lu Lingfeng.
In Lu Lingfeng's description, Lu Hui's talent and capability were extrely remarkable, far surpassing him by more than a hundredfold.
"It's a good thing..."
Lu Lingfeng paused briefly, then continued, "But it could also be a bad thing.
Just in case.
If sothing unexpected does happen, we might get implicated. Preparing in advance and sending Qi Yuan out also gives us peace of mind...."
"People say it's advantageous to connect with powerful families... but over these many years, what benefit have we actually received from her?
Now sothing's up, and we have to share the risk..."
The beautiful woman couldn't help but complain.
"Be quiet."
Lu Lingfeng frowned, coldly admonishing the beautiful woman, "Don't speak recklessly if you don't understand the situation.
Do you think our business has been running so smoothly all these years purely because of luck?"
"Ah?!"
Only then did the beautiful woman grasp the connection, lowering her head and staying silent.
Lu Lingfeng's expression softened slightly, and he said casually, "Alright, it's enough to understand so things within your heart.
Rember, Lu Hui and we are forever connected by blood as close family.
Even if she can't help us much now...in the future, when Qi Yuan grows up, there will certainly be tis we need her assistance..."
"Hmm."
The beautiful woman nodded obediently.
The two of them stood on the lawn, quietly gazing in the direction where the spaceship had disappeared into the distance, before turning to leave, leaning against each other.
.....
"Finally left this place...."
Aboard the spaceship, Lu Yuan watched as the 2045 Great Capital Star in his view grew smaller, gradually becoming just a glowing star, feeling a slight sense of relief.
In the Lu Family, although Lu Lingfeng rarely showed up, and no one overly restricted his freedom,
there was always an uneasy feeling.
Perhaps it was due to the lingering reverence in Lu Qiyuan for his imposing father Lu Lingfeng, embedded in his body from a young age.
Now, away from the Lu Family, I feel much more relaxed.
"It's even smoother than I imagined. Lu Lingfeng agreed imdiately; I thought it would take more persuasion....
Seems like he's quite true to that father-son agreent."
Lu Yuan stood at the front cabin of the spaceship, gazing at the vast starry sky dotted with twinkling stars outside, pondering silently.
Nobility isn't sustained rely by an imperial conferred title or rank.
The glamorous appearance and lofty deanor require substantial money to maintain.
The majority of noble families have their own fixed industries, and the Lu Family is no exception.
Noble families of the sa rank, depending on their financial inco, enjoy vastly different statuses and privileges.
A noble with a viscount title may sotis have less status and ostentation compared to a small baron, which is not too uncommon.
You can't expect everyone to have an exceptional business acun.
If one can't manage their inherited business well, can't make money, then naturally they'll slowly deplete their resources.
Lu Yuan felt he should feel fortunate.
His father, Lu Lingfeng, may not be a comrcial genius, but he manages the family's business better than most.
The Lu Family's enterprises are quite diverse, involving many peculiar industries.
However, they are generally small in scale, earning a steady and modest profit.
Yet, tenfold, a hundredfold of small profits together make a considerable amount.
"No need to assu too much risk, nor to draw any attention, quietly and steadily making a fortune....
It's almost uncharacteristic of Lu Lingfeng to co up with such a business strategy...."
Lu Yuan roughly estimated and found that even by calculating only the parts he knew, the assets of the Lu Family, a third-class baron family, were much more substantial than he imagined.
No wonder Lu Lingfeng kept pushing the predecessor Lu Qiyuan to strive.
With such assets, even if Lu Qiyuan lived a decadent life forever, it wouldn't run out.
"Perhaps for this reason, Lu Lingfeng agreed so readily to let go alone to Lilva Star for experience.
Even if I ss up the mining business there, it doesn't matter...."
Lu Yuan looked out the window, his eyes faintly glowing.
He was surprised to find that the Lu Family also had businesses in tal mining.
His upcoming destination, Lilva Planet, is one such location.
The Lu Family holds a two-hundred-year mining right for a small tal mine on that planet, and he's going directly to beco a black-hearted mine owner.
"Although the tal mine in the Lu Family's possession isn't a bismuth tal mine, I've checked, the main resources produced on Lilva Star include bismuth iron.
Where there's bismuth iron, there are bound to be Source Breath Insects, and where there are Source Breath Insects, naturally, there are waste mines...."
Lu Yuan's trip to Lilva Star is not rely to use the waste mines polluted by Source Breath Insects to restore strength.
He's also planning to collect precious tal materials for his next cha.
"Even a Level 1 Blue Falcon Type IV cha can elevate my combat strength to Level 4 or 5.
If I can devour and rge a Level 4 or 5 cha, my combat power might surge to Level 7, or even Level 8...."
He still retained the combat awareness of a Level 10 Star Spirit Realm Strong, now all that's missing is the corresponding hardware facilities.
As long as the hardware keeps up, the combat strength will naturally rise quickly.
"Moreover, the most crucial part of the Devouring Spirit Clan's heritage — the crafting of the Demon God chanic Soldier — also requires a large amount of precious cosmic tal material...."
The Great Fallen Black Heaven Prison Demon God chanic Soldier....
Lu Yuan can never forget the na of this inherited chanic Soldier even in his dreams.
With closed eyes, he could recall the terrifying power when "Andusha" summoned that dreadful chanism akin to a Demon God descending.
"Andusha" could do it....
So he has a chance to achieve the sa.
As he was contemplating, a figure appeared silently like a ghost in the reflection of the window before him.
Lu Yuan turned expressionlessly to see Lu Feng, who serves as his "bodyguard," "nanny," and Lu Lingfeng's "eyes and ears," said softly to him: "Young Master, we're about to rge with the Eternal Day Comrce's fleet."
A vast, brightly lit fleet of ships slowly appeared in the black starry sky before them.
Lu Yuan softly said "Mm."
Then he couldn't help but sigh lightly to himself.
If Lu Feng hadn't co along.... then this trip could truly be called perfect.
