Lu Wanqing and Xiao Zhong Liyi both subconsciously held their breath, watching outside nervously, not daring to make a sound, for fear of being discovered by the sawfish.
Soon, the sawfish arrived.
This time, Lu Wanqing and Xiao Zhong Liyi clearly saw the appearance of these creatures. Because a few flew very low, very close to them, Lu Wanqing was so scared that she pulled Xiao Yi to hide inside, not daring to peek outside anymore, fearing discovery.
Fortunately, the sawfish, just like a few days ago, seemed to be just passing by and left after a short while.
The faint thunder in the sky disappeared, and Lu Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief. She turned to look at Xiao Yi.
They didn't know if the sawfish outside had all left, and they didn't dare to go out. That night, mother and son once again hid in their mechs and endured the entire night.
It wasn't until the next day, when the weather was clear, the sky was a beautiful azure blue, and there wasn't a trace of sawfish, that Lu Wanqing opened the mech's cockpit and got out.
Lu Wanqing put away the mech, and beside her, Xiao Zhong Liyi also got out of his mech and put it away.
"Have a nutrient paste and then sleep and rest," Lu Wanqing said to Xiao Zhong Liyi.
Xiao Zhong Liyi nodded, "Mm."
After these few days of getting along, Xiao Zhong Liyi had figured out his mother's personality. When she was this tired, his mother would always insist he rest first. Only after he had rested well would his mother agree to let him stay guard while she rested.
Xiao Zhong Liyi thought to himself that he would just sleep for a little while, wake up soon, and then let his mother rest.
The sawfish appeared again. They didn't know if they had gone far. Lu Wanqing dared not turn on her comms today, fearing that the electronic fluctuations would attract the attention of the sawfish that hadn't left yet and lead them to be discovered.
In space, the direction was finally determined, and they were rapidly approaching the insectoid planet. Zhong Li Feiyu and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, this relief didn't last long. By noon, the time they had agreed with Lu Wanqing to contact each other daily, Lu Wanqing had not made contact.
Zhong Li Feiyu suddenly felt uneasy. He frequently lowered his gaze to his comms, hoping each time that Lu Wanqing would call, or even send a message, but there was nothing.
An inexplicable sense of unease enveloped him from the top of his head, making him anxious.
"Speed up, full speed ahead," Zhong Li Feiyu commanded immediately.
After saying this, Zhong Li Feiyu remembered something and added, "Order everyone to prepare their mechs. When we get there, we may have to face the sawfish directly."
The deputy general's expression changed, and he quickly replied, "Yes!"
The deputy general went to give the orders quickly. Everyone on the ship was very nervous.
Military transport ships were naturally faster than ordinary ones. They flew along the coordinates and gradually began to see familiar scenery. This was the same starry sky Lu Wanqing had passed through when she last contacted them. Seeing this, everyone suddenly understood that they had found the right direction. As long as they followed this path, they would definitely find Lu Wanqing and the young master!
The deputy general was also greatly surprised and couldn't help but say to Zhong Li Feiyu, "General, our direction is correct. We saw these locations on the journey of Miss Lu and the young master!"
Zhong Li Feiyu nodded, "Mm."
After spending three days and three nights, they finally spotted a small spaceship adrift in space. During these few days of travel, Zhong Li Feiyu finally received another communication from Lu Wanqing. He learned that Lu Wanqing and Xiao Yi had once again experienced a large group of sawfish passing by. He was very worried, but knowing that the sawfish were just passing through, and that Lu Wanqing and Xiao Yi had not been discovered and were still hiding in the cave, safe, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the small spacecraft ahead, everyone was excited. The deputy general was even more thrilled and quickly exclaimed, "General, we found it! That's the small spacecraft Miss Lu and the young master used before!"
The spacecraft being here meant the insectoid planet was nearby!
Zhong Li Feiyu composed himself and ordered everyone to enter alert mode.
A planet looks small from a distance, but up close, it is vast. To find Lu Wanqing and Xiao Yi, a specific location would be needed.
Zhong Li Feiyu did not enter rashly. Instead, he waited until the next noon, when Lu Wanqing contacted him again, before ordering the spacecraft to descend along the targeted direction.
Inside the cave, Lu Wanqing and Xiao Yi saw the spacecraft descending from the sky. The anxiety they had felt for a long time finally subsided. Excitement, relief, and survival, perhaps that's what it felt like?
"Mommy, it's Daddy!" Xiao Zhong Liyi exclaimed excitedly. "Daddy will definitely come to save us!"
Lu Wanqing was also happy. She raised her hand, stroked the child's head, and smiled, "Mm."
"Let's get out quickly too!" Lu Wanqing said urgently.
As Lu Wanqing spoke, she took Xiao Yi to go outside. However, before going out, she still had to retrieve the mech materials that were blocking the entrance. These materials were not ordinary and should not be wasted.
"Don't move, we're coming to pick you up!" The communication was still open. Zhong Li Feiyu, inside the spacecraft, heard Lu Wanqing's voice and quickly reminded her.
Lu Wanqing paused, then quickly replied, "Okay."
Indeed, it would be safer to have Zhong Li Feiyu and the others pick them up.
Zhong Li Feiyu was also very happy, but also very nervous. This was an insectoid planet, and they couldn't stay long. They had to leave as soon as possible, otherwise, if the sawfish appeared again, they would be in danger.
The spacecraft was large and difficult to conceal.
Zhong Li Feiyu, along with a few soldiers, all wearing their mechs, headed towards the cave.
Inside the cave, Lu Wanqing quickly called Xiao Yi to get into his mech as well.
Regardless, being inside a mech was safer.
Zhong Li Feiyu arrived quickly. Seeing Lu Wanqing and Xiao Zhong Liyi safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go," Lu Wanqing said happily.
"Mm," Zhong Li Feiyu nodded.
They came in a hurry and left in a hurry. After boarding the spacecraft, they quickly launched and departed.
Only after the spacecraft flew out of the insectoid planet and entered space did everyone breathe a sigh of relief, followed by joy.
It was over. Lu Wanqing and Xiao Zhong Liyi had finally been rescued and were out of danger!
On the spacecraft, everyone disembarked from their mechs and put them away!
Xiao Zhong Liyi put away his mech and immediately looked at Zhong Li Feiyu, excitedly saying, "Daddy, I knew you would come to save us!"
Zhong Li Feiyu knew that when they were trapped on the insectoid planet before, Lu Wanqing did not trust him. It was Xiao Yi who believed in him and convinced Lu Wanqing to wait for another half a month.
"Mm," Zhong Li Feiyu nodded slightly, raised his hand, and ruffled the child's hair, a hint of pampering in his touch for the first time.
Lu Wanqing hesitated for a moment, then said to Zhong Li Feiyu, "General Feiyu, this time... thank you."
If Zhong Li Feiyu hadn't come to rescue them, she and Xiao Yi might have truly died on this planet. Those sawfish were too dangerous!
