169: Chapter 169 Superior Genes, Discovering a Lone Star

"Dad, I'm not trying to bring you down, but I can feel that your realm isn't even as high as mine!" Su Mingxia mercilessly exposed his old father's lie.

"Su Mingxia, are you looking for a beating? Do you think it was easy for your old man to raise you? Now I can't even brag a little?" Su Fan's face darkened.

"No matter what, I'm not just your father, but also your master in cultivation. Is this how you talk to your own father and master?" Su Fan feigned anger.

But he was still very happy in his heart. What father wouldn't want his son to be even more outstanding?

"Dad, Master! I was wrong, you are the greatest! I love you to death!" Su Mingxia was the type of person with a very lively personality; otherwise, he wouldn't have run from the Research Institute to the entertainment industry, and then from the entertainment industry to the military.

Hearing his son admit his mistake and praise him, as an old father, Su Fan was so happy he couldn't close his mouth.

"Mingxia, how is your younger brother's cultivation realm?"

"Dad, you don't know?" Su Mingxia's eyes widened as he spoke in disbelief.

"I went to Shengyuan Star to see him a while ago and asked about his cultivation realm. He just smiled shyly and said, 'It's alright, it's not as high as Father's, so I won't say it and embarrass myself,'" Su Fan replied.

"Dad, my brother was just giving you face!" Su Mingxia held his forehead and sighed.

"He's already at level three of God Forging. His cultivation talent is much more impressive than mine!"

Su Fan's eyes widened, somewhat in disbelief.

His second son, Su Xiaobai, was just like his name—as pure as a blank sheet. He was shy and timid, and had been sensible since childhood, a complete polar opposite to Su Mingxia's personality.

Since Su Fan handed him the Guidance Technique and God-Forging Technique at the age of sixteen, Su Xiaobai had completely fallen in love with cultivation.

As a side note, one can only start cultivating at sixteen. Cultivating too early, before the body is fully developed, will affect growth.

At twenty-six, at Su Xiaobai's strong request, Su Fan sent him to the Shengyuan Holy Land on Shengyuan Star for further study.

This cultivation lasted for several decades.

During this time, except for the Android he often left at home while online, his true body never returned to Blue Star, remaining in secluded cultivation on Shengyuan Star.

Zhou Xiaoxiao was truly bored, so after discussing it with Su Fan, they had a pair of fraternal twins ten years ago.

The third child was a daughter, named Su Huang.

The fourth child was a son, named Su Feng.

"Mingxia, if your younger brother is so impressive, why didn't you tell me sooner?" Su Fan reached out as if to swat Su Mingxia's rear.

"Dad, you can't blame me. You didn't ask, so I thought you knew!" Su Mingxia twisted his body and took a step back.

"I didn't expect my genes to be so excellent. Not only is my eldest son a cultivation talent, but my second son is one as well." Su Fan was incredibly proud of himself.

"Right, right, right, your genes are the most excellent!" Su Mingxia rolled his eyes.

"I wonder how your third sister and fourth brother's cultivation talents are," Su Fan said expectantly.

"We'll know in six years when they start cultivating." Su Mingxia was also quite expectant.

"Dad, if their talents are also top-notch, then you and Mom should have a few more. Our family will have multiple sovereigns, and then the whole family can ascend together! That would be absolutely awesome!" Su Mingxia said with a grin, winking and gesturing.

"You rascal! You want your parents to keep having kids? Look at you and your brother—neither of you is any less of a headache. One loves to play, the other loves to cultivate. Tell me, when will I get to hold a grandson or granddaughter?" Su Fan said irritably.

These two sons were outstanding enough, but they just wouldn't produce any offspring, yet they wanted him and Zhou Xiaoxiao to have more. It was really...

Thinking of this, Su Fan aimed a kick at him.

Su Mingxia twisted his body and dodged it again.

"Dad, give it some serious thought. If my third sister and fourth brother's talents are still good, having more siblings would be the best protection for our family! Don't you think so?" Su Mingxia's expression was uncharacteristically serious.

Su Fan was stunned, and then many thoughts crossed his mind. Especially when he thought of the system in his mind, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

"You brat, I'll be the one to protect our family. You all just need to be happy every day," Su Fan scolded with a smile.

But in reality, he already had other ideas.

If the children born all had such high cultivation talent, perhaps having a few more wouldn't be a bad thing!

...

The 100 spaceships did not separate but moved together, performing jumps in batches.

After the ships reached the southwestern region of the Fifth Ring, the Red Queen's voice came through.

"Master, a giant, special planet has been discovered ahead!"

"What's so special about it?" Su Fan asked curiously.

"It is an independently existing planet that does not orbit a star!" the Red Queen replied.

"Approach it immediately!" Su Fan ordered.

Actually, in the universe, such Rogue Stars are not uncommon, mostly existing in regions with few stars.

This region had no stars, so the presence of a Rogue Star was considered normal.

"Approaching now. Please wait," the Red Queen replied.

Soon, the hundred spaceships arrived near the Rogue Star.

Su Fan also saw the appearance of this Rogue Star on the large screen.

"Red Queen, this Rogue Star seems to have an atmosphere?"

"Yes. The scan of this celestial body is complete. This planet has a thick atmosphere. Among all the Rogue Stars we have discovered, it is currently the only one of its kind," the Red Queen replied.

"Is there life on this planet?" Su Fan continued to ask, his expression turning serious.

"Yes! And quite a lot!"

On the screen, the planet's surface was suddenly covered with dense dots of various sizes, some green and some red.

Su Fan thought for a moment and decided to go down and explore.

Special planets usually contain some precious resources.

"Other ships, stand by on-site," Su Fan ordered, then had the Red Queen control his own ship to descend alone toward the Rogue Star.

The ship didn't descend quickly. Su Fan and the others could see the scenery outside through the panoramic simulation.

"Dad, the surface of this planet seems to be entirely made of ice!" Su Mingxia's eyes widened.

"Red Queen, is the surface of this planet composed of ice?" Su Fan inquired.

"That's correct. It's all ice."

"Furthermore, it's not just the surface. According to our probes, almost the entire planet is composed of ice!" the Red Queen replied.

After hearing this, Su Fan's expression became serious.

A planet composed entirely of ice, and so large—there must be something fishy going on!

This planet was much larger than Jupiter!

"If it's entirely made of ice, could we carve it into a giant ice sculpture?" Su Mingxia said, rubbing his chin.

Su Fan: "..."

"It could be carved into an ice sculpture, but according to the normal laws of the universe, an ice sculpture of this size would generally be compressed back into a spherical shape by its own gravity," the Red Queen explained.

"Alright then..." Su Mingxia shrugged.

The ship continued to descend, and the scene on the ground became clearer and clearer.

"Holy crap! What kind of creature is that? It's so beautiful!" Su Mingxia exclaimed.
