Capítulo 732: Chapter 734 Elder Hua Is Ill
Nian Shutong made quite the noise, and Fu Yunhe found out immediately, but he was too busy to stand by her side.
It seemed like every battle, it was hard for Fu Yunhe to accompany her.
The night Little River Live ended, as for the outside discussions, Nian Shutong didn’t care and just called Fu Yunhe.
“Did the livestream grab any food?”
“No, I just got back.”
With a slightly aggrieved voice, Nian Shutong tried not to laugh and said, “It’s okay, there’s a package for you at the school gate tomorrow morning.”
“Mm, I miss you.”
At that moment, Fu Yunhe, leaning back on his bed, watching Nian Shutong through the video, had a focused expression that seemed to penetrate through the Light Computer.
“I know. I still need to be busy for a while before I can come back, then we can meet.”
“Not necessarily.”
Fu Yunhe sat up and said to Nian Shutong, “I’ve sped up the process, I’m currently taking various tests and breaking some previous records. Once all is done, I’ll be joining the Legion, meaning I’ll be going to the battlefield.”
“So soon? Because of me.”
Nian Shutong quickly guessed Fu Yunhe’s intention.
“It is and it isn’t.”
Fu Yunhe explained, “To stand by your side, I need matching strength. Of course, I also plan to seek justice for myself. I can’t die without understanding why; I need to investigate.”
“Of course you must investigate! How can my people be wronged?”
Nian Shutong also rose from her chair and said to Fu Yunhe, “Just go ahead with your plans, I’ve got your back.”
“Hehe, usually, this line is said by a man, but coming from you, it doesn’t feel out of place at all—and actually feels quite right.”
“Ah, well, I guess that’s the charm of being a boss.”
The two bantered as they chatted and quickly moved on to the next topic.
“Now that Blue Star has shown some of its strength, it will definitely attract attention. Be careful with everything.”
“I know.”
Fu Yunhe thought for a moment and said, “Should we form a military unit?”
“Actually, every family has their own military forces. The Ji Family you’re going to has them too, but they haven’t taken action—which would just add some casualties. Your strength is too overwhelming; the Ji Family Patriarch is scared.”
Nian Shutong nodded and said, “This time’s mechanical soldiers, I think it would be good to take them to the battlefield for some training. As for the military forces you mentioned, I’m also preparing to build one, and it does involve you a bit.”
“Mm, how so?”
Fu Yunhe was very curious. What did it have to do with him?
“Didn’t you say there are many people like bald Master Fu?”
“I want you to find some reliable ones and send them over to initially work as farmers on Blue Star for a while. After some time, if there aren’t any problems, I will treat their injuries and turn them into military forces.”
Nian Shutong’s words made Fu Yunhe excitedly stand up and ask, “Are you serious?”
“What do you think? When have I ever not meant what I said?”
“No.”
Fu Yunhe’s face moved closer to the camera, and with a slightly sour tone, he said, “Thank you, thank you.”
“Alright, let’s not go there. I’ve already taken their commander, so taking a few more soldiers isn’t a big deal.”
The two discussed this topic for a long time until Nian Shutong decided to ask bald Master Fu for help, as these people still needed to be controlled.
Bald Master Fu, who got along very well with her, would always make things a bit better.
Nian Shutong and Fu Yunhe talked for over an hour before finally hanging up the call.
Fu Yunhe’s heart was full of fighting spirit, he knew he had to work even harder and faster.
Nian Shutong checked the time, “I’ll contact Master tomorrow.”
That night, Blue Star was quiet, but the Star Network was in complete turmoil, with so many topics that many netizens felt they couldn’t keep up.
But such big gossip, such big news, it was impossible not to comment; sleep would elude them otherwise.
A group of people partied online.
Meanwhile, some high-ranking families made a collective decision not to provoke Blue Star.
Nian Shutong’s power was just a minor aspect, as each family’s background would not be fully revealed, just like Ji Family yesterday. Ostensibly, they had three SSS-ranked, but was that really it?
Most people didn’t believe so.
These families made this decision because Little River Live controlled the supply of interstellar seeds.
Once they angered her and she cut off the seed supply, all their previous investments would lose their meaning.
What mattered most were the entangled interests.
The night passed and Nian Shutong slept in for a change. When she woke up and opened her door, she saw Lin Mu standing at the door.
“Damn! Have you been standing here playing guardian spirit all morning? I’m not paying you.”
Nian Shutong stretched and started walking out while rubbing her back; she had slept in an uncomfortable position the night before.
“Nian Shutong, you’re not pregnant, are you?”
Lin Mu’s comment almost made Nian Shutong trip and fall, and she stared at him, dumbfounded, “What did you just say?”
“Hehe, just joking.”
Seeing Lin Mu joking, Nian Shutong swung a punch at him.
“Really? Standing here bright and early just to make a joke!”
Lin Mu, having no fondness for getting hit, quickly dodged and said to Nian Shutong, “Elder Hua is sick!”
Nian Shutong immediately stopped her playful actions and hurried toward Elder Hua’s room, anxiously asking, “When did he get sick? Why am I only hearing about this now?”
“He just fell ill, I was about to call you.”
Lin Mu dared not jest any further. They all had great respect for the venerable Elder Hua.
Nian Shutong pushed open the door to Elder Hua’s room, and Dou Dou was sitting by the bed, while Ji Sisi was continuously wiping Elder Hua with a towel.
“Mr. Nian!”
“Don’t worry, I’m here.”
Nian Shutong touched Elder Hua’s forehead, which was very hot, scorchingly so.
She also checked his pulse; there was significant internal exhaustion, meaning he was tired.
“Dou Dou, has Elder Hua had a lot of classes lately?”
“A lot, because mom and Uncle Wali are both busy, it’s all been Elder Hua teaching.”
Nian Shutong cursed under her breath, it was her oversight.
Elder Hua was injured, had no strength left, and was already not young, but for the sake of the children, he tirelessly taught several subjects without resting.
He didn’t complain of tiredness himself, so they subconsciously assumed he was fine; but now, to fall ill from exhaustion?
“Don’t worry, Elder Hua will recover soon, you all should go out.”
“Ji Sisi, tell the students, starting today, no more indoor classes; switch to outdoor combat training.”
“Understood, Mr. Nian.”
