251: Chapter 251 Departure for the Imperial Star
Time flies.
The three-year agreement between Lin Yun and the Ninth Princess Hua Caili had already passed by more than two years.
There were only four or five months left until the agreed-upon deadline.
At this moment, Lin Family Manor was once again permeated with the warm atmosphere of nurturing new life.
Through Lin Yun's efforts, all eighteen of his wives were pregnant with babies again.
Lin Yun sat on a stone bench in the garden, watching the lively scene before him, feeling moved.
The children were chasing and playing on the grass, while his wives sat together in small groups chatting; the sunlight shone on everyone, warm and peaceful.
Just as Lin Yun was thinking this, his Communicator rang.
It was Qu Yanran.
"Lin Yun, have you achieved a Breakthrough to the third stage yet? When are you coming to the Imperial Planet?" Qu Yanran asked straightforwardly.
Lin Yun replied: "I have. I will depart in a month."
Qu Yanran: "Good, I will wait for you. Contact me when you arrive."
The call disconnected.
Lin Yun put away his Communicator and continued to watch the children playing.
Qu Yanran turned off her Communicator, turned around, and hugged a stunningly beautiful young girl beside her.
The girl was about sixteen or seventeen, her long, jet-black hair cascading down like a waterfall. Her eyes were a pure ink-black, and her features were so exquisite that she didn't look like a real person, as if she were a Fairy who had stepped out of a painting.
She was wearing a white dress, sitting by the window. Sunlight shone on her, and her whole person seemed to glow.
Hua Liuli.
The youngest princess of the Empire, the younger sister of the Ninth Princess.
Qu Yanran held her, her heart filled with reluctance.
She really couldn't bear to see Liuli marry Lin Yun.
For these past two years, she had been speaking ill of Lin Yun in front of Liuli.
Saying he was fickle, saying he had married so many wives, saying he was impolite, and saying he wasn't worthy of Liuli.
But what was the result?
The more she spoke ill of Lin Yun, the stronger Liuli's curiosity about Lin Yun became.
"Sister Yanran, is that Lin Yun you speak of really that bad?" Liuli asked for the first time.
"He is even worse than you think!"
"Then why was he able to be summoned by Sister alone?"
"...Because he is lucky."
"Then why was he able to discover the Star-Devouring Creature?"
"...That was also luck."
"Then why is he able to Cultivate so fast?"
"...He just has good talent, his character is lacking."
Liuli nodded thoughtfully, but her eyes clearly flashed with a glow of curiosity.
Later, whenever Qu Yanran spoke ill of Lin Yun, Liuli would start speaking up for him.
"Sister Yanran, he is fickle because he has the Fertility Holy Body, this isn't his fault."
"Sister Yanran, the fact that he married so many wives shows he has a sense of responsibility."
"Sister Yanran, he must have extraordinary qualities to be summoned by Sister alone."
Qu Yanran felt like crying but had no tears.
She wanted to make Liuli dislike Lin Yun, but the result was the opposite.
Liuli was now looking forward to meeting Lin Yun.
A few days ago, she even asked her: "Sister Yanran, when is Lin Yun coming?"
Qu Yanran wailed in her heart.
If only she had known, she wouldn't have done this.
If only she had known, she would have spoken well of Lin Yun.
Perhaps Liuli would have thought "Sister Yanran is lying to me, Lin Yun definitely isn't that good."
Now it was done for; it was completely ruined.
Liuli was full of anticipation, just waiting for Lin Yun to come to the Imperial Planet.
Qu Yanran held Liuli, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
That brat Lin Yun, the Ninth Princess had already told him she wanted to introduce him to Liuli, yet in these two years, he had actually married eight more wives!
Eight!
Added to the previous ones, that made a total of eighteen!
Is this something a human would do?
Qu Yanran took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
Forget it, she wouldn't care anymore.
As long as Liuli was happy, that was all that mattered.
Qu Yanran stroked Liuli's head: "Lin Yun will be coming to the Imperial Planet in a month."
Liuli's eyes lit up: "Really?"
Qu Yanran nodded.
Liuli smiled, her smile bright, like cherry blossoms blooming in spring.
Qu Yanran looked at her smile, and felt another wave of reluctance in her heart.
Such a cute Liuli, about to be married to that playboy...
She was so unwilling.
A month's time passed in the blink of an eye.
During this month, Lin Yun took his wives to see all of Minglu Planet.
From the Monster Continent next to Yunan Prefecture to the ten-thousand-meter peaks of Qingchuan Prefecture.
From the ice fields and snowy regions of Linshuang Prefecture to the thousand-mile lakes of Luoshui Prefecture.
Everywhere, they left their footprints.
Everywhere was filled with laughter.
The children also followed; the youngest was still in swaddling clothes, held by their mother, while the oldest could already run and jump, chasing and playing on the grass.
A family of fifty-seven, plus one hundred maids, a grand group that became the focus wherever they went.
The trip ended.
Lin Family Manor was busy and orderly.
Maids went in and out, packing luggage, organizing items, and arranging the itinerary.
The number of maids in the Lin family had reached three or four hundred.
This time, nearly one hundred people planned to go to the Imperial Planet.
These one hundred people were all young maids, each one extremely excited.
"The Imperial Planet! That is the Imperial Planet!"
"I heard the Imperial Planet is several times larger than Minglu Planet and especially prosperous!"
"And we can see the Ninth Princess! The Ninth Princess!"
The maids chattered away, unable to contain their excitement.
Lin Yun stood to the side, watching them, and couldn't help but smile.
It's great to be young.
Spaceport.
A huge anti-gravity vehicle landed slowly, and Lin Yun stepped down with his whole family.
Nearly two hundred people stood on the plaza of the Spaceport, looking up at that huge starship.
The starship was about a thousand meters long, entirely silver-white, shining brilliantly under the light of the star.
"Wow—so big!" Qiao Feifei looked up, her eyes shining.
Shen Qingqiu stood to the side, looking at the starship, a trace of anticipation flashing in her eyes.
The Imperial Planet, Qilin Planet.
That was the center of the entire Qilin Kingdom, the Holy Land that all Martial Artists yearned for.
When she was young, she also dreamed of going to the Imperial Planet to make a name for herself.
But later, for various reasons, she didn't make it.
Unexpectedly, after getting married, she was actually going.
An Yirou was the same, looking at the starship, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
Lin Yun held both their hands and smiled: "Let's go, let's go up and take a look."
The family boarded the starship.
The interior of the starship was spacious, bright, and luxuriously decorated.
Lin Yun had booked over one hundred rooms, each equipped with an independent bathroom.
A dining hall, entertainment room, children's playground... everything was available.
The children went wild as soon as they boarded, running around in the children's playground, their laughter resounding to the heavens.
Everyone found their own rooms and began to settle in.
Lin Yun stood in front of the starship's observation window, watching the Spaceport outside.
People coming and going, starships taking off and landing, busy and orderly.
"Husband, what are you thinking about?" Su Yingxue walked over and took his arm.
Lin Yun shook his head: "Nothing. I'm just feeling a bit emotional."
Su Yingxue smiled: "What are you feeling emotional about?"
Lin Yun looked out the window: "A few years ago, we had just gotten into Martial Arts University. We went to Tianshui City. Now, we are going to the Imperial Planet."
Su Yingxue leaned on his shoulder: "Yes, time flies so fast."
The two were silent for a while, looking at the starry sky outside the window.
The starship started up and slowly moved away from the Spaceport.
Accelerating, then accelerating again.
The starry sky outside the window began to distort, the light stretched, turning into streaks of colorful lines.
Then...
Everything returned to calm.
The starship entered the Dark Universe.
