Chapter 423: All Things Awaken, the Star River Shines Forever (Grand Finale)
In the end, Lu Shinian still went on a honeymoon with Su Ruan.The two of them handled previously overlooked matters along the way while leisurely traveling around, enjoying their carefree time.
During their travels, the Federation’s Four Great Armies also learned about the existence of the Empire.
However, establishing contact would require time to settle and accumulate, but after negotiations, a small group of elite from the Four Great Armies were sent to the Empire.
The leader of the group was Cheng Qingye.
The true identity of Cheng Qingye was known only to the leaders of the Four Great Armies, after all, the deep-seated enmity between the Insect Race and humans cannot be easily changed because of the change of the "king" on the Insect Race side.
Such things naturally require time to gradually unfold.
Upon knowing their third brother was going to the Empire, Su Ruan decided to bring Lu Shinian along as well.
She thought it was time for their family to reunite.
Su Hu and Su Heyuan also followed Zero to the Empire, and Zero was busy every day taking care of the baby, making it not the best time for the two to communicate.
Fortunately, Su Hu and Su Heyuan had their own matters to handle, so this somewhat tedious journey to the Empire wasn’t too dull.
Two months later, Su Ruan and Lu Shinian arrived at Lindong Star.
As its name suggests, Lindong Star was filled with permafrost, with an average temperature of minus ten degrees, and during the coldest times, it could reach minus seventy degrees. Even for the evolved Imperial people, surviving in such extreme temperatures was not easy.
Probably due to this reason, the population on Lindong Star was sparse, and its buildings were nowhere near as luxurious as those on Wanling Star.
The only relatively decent building was the villa of the Star Lord, Su Hanjing.
When Su Ruan and Lu Shinian arrived, Cheng Qingye and the others were already there.
In the small villa, the Su Family finally reunited.
Everyone looked at each other, appearing to have countless words to say, yet unable to express any.
After a long silence, Su Hu suddenly coughed, "You two still look as young as ever!"
This statement made everyone burst into joyful laughter.
The atmosphere was harmonious, full of warmth.
Gathered together, they ate and chatted, laughing and talking, dissolving the sense of alienation brought by years of separation.
Though no one explicitly stated it, everyone was aware that they were a family, a family forever.
After a few rounds of drinks, everyone became somewhat inebriated.
However, Su Ruan pulled Lu Shinian to the highest ice mountain on Lindong Star.
The cold seeped into her heart, and she instinctively snuggled into Lu Shinian’s embrace.
Lu Shinian held her tightly, whispering, "What made you think of coming here?"
Su Ruan tilted her small face up, her voice soft, "I love you so much~"
Her cheeks were flushed, seemingly drunk, yet her eyes were bright and clear, reflecting Lu Shinian’s image.
A small black cat leapt out from her Spiritual Sea, looking a bit excited.
Lu Shinian also released his Companion Beast, the Snow Wolf, which had grown a pair of majestic wings, guarding the excited little black cat.
Su Ruan leaned softly into Lu Shinian, rubbing against his chest, murmuring, "I love you so much~"
Lu Shinian’s heart trembled as he lowered his head, "I love you too."
Unable to suppress his overwhelming emotions any longer, he kissed Su Ruan’s lips.
Su Ruan’s long eyelashes fluttered slightly as she obediently closed her eyes, responding to Lu Shinian.
Above them, the small black cat and the big Snow Wolf nestled together, while the invisible wave of spiritual power emanated from where their foreheads touched.
Their love melted everything.
And so, this perpetually cold Lindong Star, like a miracle, thawed and welcomed the spring breeze.
All things revived, and the Star River shone bright forever.
