Facing Georgette's frustration and dissatisfaction, Gu Hang felt helpless too.
"Superior Georgette, I am very regretful as well. The contributions that you and your sisters have made over this past year are witnessed by everyone on the entire planet. I truly appreciate your efforts and sincerely hope that you can stay, to help us thoroughly eradicate that group of heretical cultists from the Primordial Wrath Owl Sect,"
"But I cannot be so selfish. You still need to communicate with Korolya III, and in the end, whether you decide to go or stay, I will respect your choice."
Gu Hang's words were polite and earnest.
This was indeed what he felt in his heart.
No matter how reluctant Georgette was, she could only nod in agreent.
Before initiating the interstellar communication with Korolya III, she earnestly said to Gu Hang, "I will fight to stay, at least until those cultists are eliminated."
Gu Hang nodded with a smile.
...
When Georgette was communicating with her old ho, Gu Hang respectfully left, not listening in.
After the Superior ca out, her expression was awful.
It was at this mont that Gu Hang asked, "How did it go? Is the situation still serious?"
"Yes," Georgette sighed, "Perhaps, Korolya III is facing a war."
Gu Hang's expression darkened.
He asked, "Similar to... that historical war on Rage Owl Star?"
"I hope it doesn't get to that extent. We're going back to prevent that situation from happening."
"Huh..."
Gu Hang exhaled deeply.
He didn't know exactly what had happened on Korolya III, but he didn't want that place to fall into chaos.
The total population of the Tianma Star Sector, excluding Korolya III, was only forty billion across the remaining eight planets.
If Korolya III beca unstable, it would an half the star sector's population was thrown into turmoil. Business, trade, and communication would co to a halt.
Gu Hang was looking forward to using the Gu Clan's resources to strengthen Rage Owl's position in interstellar comrce once he beca the Gu Clan Head, even if he was just a puppet and the real power lay with his mother.
Wasn't that the purpose of building the Starport?
It could bring significant economic benefits.
But now it seed a war was about to start.
If it were just minor unrest within the star planet, that would be manageable; but if it spread to the scale of that terrible historical war Rage Owl Star had witnessed, requiring the mobilization of fleets, massive material investnts, and the incessant deploynt of the Star Realm Army to stabilize the situation...
That would spell disaster; without resolving the conflict, comrce could hardly be restored.
Moreover, if you looked at it more seriously, if the disaster on Korolya III were to spread beyond its borders, Rage Owl Star would likely be the first to bear the brunt.
From Korolya III to Rage Owl Star was just one jump away through the Star Realm Tunnel. If corruption, heretical traitors, or even demons started to spread and invade from Korolya III, there would be no escaping for Rage Owl Star.
A disaster capable of destroying a planet of forty billion people would be unstoppable for Rage Owl, a thousandfold smaller with a population of only forty million.
Gu Hang still hoped that the issues on Korolya III could be resolved appropriately.
However, there wasn't much he could do in the situation.
It was another case where he could only wait for the outco.
But at this ti, it was Georgette who was comforting him, "You don't need to worry so much. On Korolya III, each of the twenty Nest Capitals is so large and densely populated. There are many places and people that law enforcent and governnt departnts cannot monitor. Disgusting things happen all the ti, and cults are just one part of it.
This ti, it is just on a larger scale and more severe, but it doesn't necessarily an it will develop to an irreversible stage. I'm going back to solve this problem."
"I hope you can resolve it properly," Gu Hang could only say in response.
"Hmm, but..." Georgette seed to have made up her mind about sothing and said to Gu Hang, "However, we don't have a ship to take us back right now. Bishop Zhao Qinghong said he will send a church ship to pick us up from Rage Owl Star. It will take at least six or seven days to get here, plus the return trip... He told that it would be enough if we could return to Korolya within a month.
So, I'm thinking..."
"If we take action in advance, is there ti for us to completely uproot the Primal Fury Owl Sect?"
It was clear that the Superior was not content.
After a year of effort, leaving without a result would be too suffocating and distressing for her.
That's why she made this proposal.
But Gu Hang was very calm.
"If possible, that would of course be best. But... we cannot act too rashly. Right now, do we have enough intelligence? Do we have enough ti? Is the timing right?"
Georgette candidly replied, "It's not quite ripe, but it's not unfeasible. Listen to ..."
She carefully detailed their so-called recent big breakthrough to Gu Hang.
Throughout this process, Gu Hang listened intently and occasionally interjected with questions.
He seriously considered whether the plan proposed by Georgette was feasible.
If they could indeed resolve this major concern and recapture the Northern Territories before the Sisters left, it would undoubtedly be a good thing.
