Chapter 749 - Deep Influence
Yu Fang was shocked by the sudden opening of the door.
She took a step back in shock and gasped. She patted her chest and berated, “Little Nan, what are you doing? It’s so late. Why aren’t you sleeping?”
Chu Nan laughed dryly, “It’s nothing. I’m cultivating.”
“Cultivate?” Yu Fang frowned, “Why aren’t you sleeping and cultivating at night? I got up to go to the toilet and heard movement in your room. I thought there was a thief.”
Chu Nan laughed, “Mom, your son is an expert now. Which thief is blind to dare to steal from my room? Moreover, Uncle Mu Luo and their people are guarding outside. It’s impossible for thieves to enter.”
“Yes, I knew it. However, sleep obediently at night and don’t focus on cultivation. You’ve been cultivating with Xiaoxi all day today. Rest well at night.”
“Alright, alright, alright. I’ll sleep in a while.” Chu Nan knew very well that he could not talk back to his mother about this and could only hurriedly nod in agreement, “Hurry up and go sleep. It’s late.”
“You still know it’s late.” Yu Fang glared at Chu Nan but did not turn around to leave. Instead, she looked around and leaned towards him with a mysterious expression, “Coincidentally, you’re not asleep either. Mom has something to tell you.”
“Ah?”
Looking at Yu Fang’s expression, Chu Nan guessed that nothing good had happened.
As expected, Yu Fang said, “Let me ask you, that girl called Elvy who came today… who is she? What’s your relationship with her? I think she seems to like you very much. You didn’t do anything to her, right? She’s younger than Xiaoxi no matter how you look at it. I’m afraid she’s not even 16 years old this year, right?”
Chu Nan helplessly rolled his eyes and thought to himself that his mother must have been filled with questions after seeing Elvy. However, he had never been able to find a good opportunity to ask. Now that he had finally found a good opportunity to be alone with her, how could he hold it in?
“Mom… you’re thinking too much. Elvy is only 15 years old this year. What can I do to her? She… does like me and even confessed to me just now. However, I don’t have any thoughts about her for the time being. She’s still young, right?”
“She’s really not young anymore. She’s 15 years old. Shell be a big girl in a year and can get married…”
“Stop, stop, stop… Stop. Mom, what are you talking about? How can anyone want to get married at the age of 16? Xiaoxi is also 16 years old this year. Do you want to marry her off?”
“I dare!” Yu Fang glared, “Xiaoxi is only 16 years old this year. Which kid dares to provoke her now? I’ll break his legs! As her brother, watch carefully. You can’t let Xiaoxi befriend those messy kids, understand?”
Chu Nan could only roll his eyes again.
“Mom, can you not be so good at dual labeling…”
“This is considering your marriage. What double standards? Let me tell you…”
…
Half an hour later, Yu Fang finally ended her nagging. After receiving Chu Nan’s promise that he would find a chance to call Elvy over as a guest for a day and let her take a good look, she finally returned to her room to sleep in satisfaction.
Seeing her figure disappear, Chu Nan heaved a sigh of relief.
Hearing her mutter for half an hour simply made him feel more tired than fighting with Grek.
He shook his head and turned to the corner on the other side to shout, “Alright, have you heard enough? If you’ve heard enough, come out quickly.”
Chu Xiaoxi jumped out from the corner with a gloating smile.
“Haha, Brother, I let you fool around outside. Look, you’ve been scolded by Mom, right?”
“Reprimand?” Chu Nan shook his head, “You heard it just now. Mom did not scold me at all. She even urged me to quickly get Elvy and get married immediately.”
“Haha, then listen to her and marry Elvy. In any case, from the looks of it, she’s completely bewitched by you. If you say that you want to marry her, she’ll definitely be very happy.”
“What a joke.” Chu Nan glared at her, “Now that a boy you like has come to tell you that he wants to marry you, will you agree?”
“I can’t agree even if I want to. Didn’t Mom say just now that she would break that boy’s leg?” Chu Xiaoxi chuckled.
“So, didn’t you see that Elvy’s brother came with her today? Clearly, he’s preparing to break my leg. Moreover, do you know who her family is?”
“Tsk, so what if she’s the daughter of a large family? Can her status be higher than Angie Prairie?” Chu Xiaoxi said indifferently.
Hearing Chu Xiaoxi mention Angie Prairie, Chu Nan’s heart stirred.
He had been back for a few days, but he had been unable to contact Angie Prairie.
Even if he asked Dong Fang to help contact him, there was still no news.
With Angie Prairie’s personality, since she had expressed her determination in front of Dong Fang, she would probably not have any contact with the outside world before she achieved it.
With her talent and inheritance, Chu Nan did not doubt that she would become a Heaven Control expert in the future and fulfill his oath.
However, Chu Nan was not certain that Angie Prairie had not even broken through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate previously. If she wanted to become a Heaven Control expert, it might take at least a few years.
At that time, not to mention avenging Chu Nan, it would be too late…
“Moreover, the most important thing is… how’s Supremacy Oville?”
Chu Nan frowned deeply. This was the first time he truly felt how great the impact of the series of events in the Leppler Star System was.
…
Not only Chu Nan, but all the people of the Earth Federation felt the huge impact of the incident in the Leppler Star System.
Forty-seven days after the incident in the Leppler Star System, the Federation Council officially approved the joint operation of the Federation Army and the Seres Security Company. Then, the Third Fleet of the Federation Army cooperated with many local military garrison legions and the Second Security Fleet of the Seres Security Company to form a joint special operations brigade and advance into the Leppler Star System.
Although the Earth Federation’s operation had a very legitimate reason for investigating the truth of the incident in the Leppler Star System and cleaning up the cosmic pirates who were wreaking havoc in the Leppler Star System and giving it a safe and peaceful Star Field, this operation still attracted extremely high attention and even caused a huge commotion.
Regarding the actions of the Earth Federation, the various countries around the Leppler Star System expressed different opinions at the same time.
The United States of Melaita, which was the closest to the entire Sapphire Star Field and directly bordered the Leppler Star System, had the most intense reaction.
The United States of Melaita officially announced that the Leppler Star System was directly connected to the United States of Melaita. Even if there was the threat of cosmic pirates, the United States of Melaita should be responsible for cleaning up. The Earth Federation could not easily slap the army into this Star Field.
Everyone knew very well that the United States of Melaita had always treated the Sapphire Star Field as their backyard. Now that the Earth Federation actually wanted to interfere, they were naturally unwilling.
This warning was actually announcing his control of the Sapphire Star Field to the Earth Federation.
However, the reaction of the Earth Federation was very interesting.
After being warned by the United States of Melaita, the Earth Federation immediately revoked the Federation Army number in this operation brigade and assigned it to the Second Security Fleet of the Seres Security Company.
On the surface, this operation team belonged to the Seres Security Company and had nothing to do with the federation’s officials, but in fact, everyone knew that this was only a lie.
However, this way, the accusations and warnings of the United States of Melaita and other countries against the Earth Federation lost their target.
Since this operation was led by the Seres Security Company, it was a civilian action.
It was impossible for any country to directly criticize a civilian company and not allow it to act in a Star Field that did not belong to them. This was a violation of the Milky Way Convention.
However, on the surface, it was impossible to criticize. In fact, many countries, including the United States of Melaita, also sent their military forces to the Leppler Star System in the name of private companies.
Originally, because the Sapphire Star Field had a stargate that directly jumped to the Perseus Arm, this Star Field was extremely sensitive. Almost all the surrounding countries could not directly interfere.
However, now that the Leppler Star System had happened, these countries seemed to have suddenly found a breakthrough and began to interfere wantonly.
For a moment, various factions surged into the Leppler Star System. The situation instantly became tense.
