Royal Star, Imperial Military Academy
"A Yu, still no news?"
Dongfang Haoyue’s voice was hoarse, his chin covered with stubble, making his handso face look sowhat weary, with bloodshot eyes, clearly indicating he hadn’t rested well for a long ti.
According to the plan, the Xingyue Ship should have exited Subspace three months ago and transmitted a safety ssage to the family, yet, until now, the signal from the Xingyue Ship was still missing.
Undoubtedly, sothing happened to the spaceship in Subspace.
Upon hearing the news, he was like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, his mind going completely blank at that mont.
Subspace navigation
It’s a highly mature technology within the Empire, with so many cross Star Realm voyages relying on Subspace navigation daily, and the chances of accidents are extrely slim. But who would have thought that such a rare incident would happen to his sister?
Everyone knows, once an accident occurs in Subspace, death is almost certain. Even if one isn’t killed instantly, the dinsional creatures, chaotic demons, space storms, and all sorts of dangers in Subspace completely eliminate the possibility of survival.
Fortunately, Zhuge Yu specifically asked the family elders to divinate for Dongfang Mingyue, and the divination showed auspicious signs, indicating Dongfang Mingyue wasn’t dead and there’s still a sliver of hope for her return.
This is also why he still holds onto sanity; otherwise, if his sister died, he would use every possible ans to make those people accompany Mingyue in death.
"No."
Zhuge Yu shook his head, comforting, "Don’t worry, since the divination gave a positive result, then perhaps good news from Mingyue will co soon."
Dongfang Haoyue’s voice was deep, "A Yu, I know very well about the Zhuge Family’s divinations. Destiny is unpredictable; it’s auspicious now, but it doesn’t an it always will be. The longer the delay, the slimr the hope for Mingyue’s return."
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Yu remained silent. In fact, internally, the family wasn’t very optimistic about Dongfang Mingyue’s situation, but naturally, he didn’t voice this.
Bzz
At this mont, Dongfang Haoyue’s smart wristwatch vibrated. Initially, he didn’t wish to answer, even considering hanging up, but when he saw the caller’s na, he stood up startled, as if struck by lightning.
"What’s wrong?" Zhuge Yu asked.
"It’s Mingyue, it’s Mingyue!"
Dongfang Haoyue’s eyes widened, his face flushing with excitent, and he imdiately answered the call.
Soon, a holographic screen projected into the air, revealing a slightly exhausted yet still beautiful face.
"Brother, I’m back."
As soon as Dongfang Mingyue spoke, both siblings’ eyes reddened.
Dongfang Haoyue took a deep breath, his voice trembling slightly, "It’s good that you’re back, it’s good that you’re back."
"Mingyue, what exactly happened on your side?" Zhuge Yu asked calmly.
Dongfang Mingyue’s voice was gentle, yet it struck like thunder, heavily pounding in their hearts.
"I encountered a Subspace storm."
What!!!
Upon hearing the words "Subspace storm," Dongfang Haoyue and Zhuge Yu instantly showed expressions of horror and shock.
A Subspace storm is several tis more dangerous than encountering chaotic demons in Subspace; once encountered, it’s almost certain death. The only ones capable of countering a Subspace storm are probably those Tier Nine demigods.
But Mingyue actually survived a Subspace storm and even returned to the Main Universe. How did she manage that?
Before they could ask, Dongfang Mingyue spoke first.
"It was Qin Tian who saved !"
Qin Tian?
The two exchanged glances; the na wasn’t unfamiliar to them. Zhuge Yu had even been saved by Qin Tian, and later they beca rather good friends.
However, they were also aware of Qin Tian’s circumstances. Could a Tier Six Spiritualist really protect Mingyue from a Subspace storm?
Dongfang Mingyue noticed the doubt and confusion in their eyes and proceeded to recount the event in detail.
Upon hearing how Qin Tian risked his life to shield Dongfang Mingyue, even until his body was reduced to white bones and his consciousness fell into a coma, Dongfang Haoyue was deeply moved. It was hard for him to believe that, besides himself, there was another person willing to give so much, even sacrificing his life to protect Mingyue.
And then, hearing that Qin Tian’s Bloodline Ability broke through, successfully locating a fixed energy anchor point and tearing open the space barrier to return to the universe with her, both Dongfang Haoyue and Zhuge Yu experienced intense shock and disbelief.
Locating energy anchor points, tearing open subspace barriers
Such feats, if occurring on a Tier Eight Space Elent Spiritualist or Tier Nine demigod, would be acceptable to them.
But the person who accomplished this was rely a Tier Six Spiritualist, which completely overturned their understanding.
"Mingyue, are you sure, Qin Tian didn’t use any treasures, purely relying on Spiritual Energy to tear open Subspace’s barrier?"
Zhuge Yu still couldn’t fully believe it. He acknowledged Qin Tian’s excellence and recognized Qin Tian’s abilities, but the notion of a Tier Six Spiritualist single-handedly tearing open Subspace’s barrier to return to the universe sounded too much like a fairy tale.
"Of course!"
Dongfang Mingyue nodded earnestly.
"But..."
Zhuge Yu wanted to say more, but Dongfang Haoyue stopped him.
"Mingyue, is Qin Tian available for a video call now? I’d like to thank him in person," Dongfang Haoyue said sincerely.
"Qin Tian is reporting to his superiors, probably not right now."
Dongfang Mingyue glanced at Qin Tian not far away and shook her head.
