Bai Li was going to follow the events on the Starnet for a few days, but then something happened the next day that completely disrupted their rhythm.
Old Turtle, Master Wen, Lu Ying, Ke Yanchen, Cheng JinTao, Bai Li and Tang Ying’s parents, as well as members of the Heavenly Fox Clan, and a few Therians from the Elephant, Giraffe and Tyrannosaurus clans, actually reverted to human form one after another on that day.
Old Turtle’s appearance was like a wise old man. Master Wen was still as elegant as ever. Ke Yanchen was a somewhat silent and thin old man. Lu Ying and Cheng JinTao were holding hands, as they smiled at Bai Li. They hugged each other tightly.
The most disturbing thing was the very large Therians. First, they were happy that they had returned to human form so quickly, and then pounded their chests with regret and howled loudly that it would have been better if they had recovered a few days earlier, so they could have competed with their fellow netizens for a spot in the Carefree Farmstead game. After that reminder, they remembered that there was a lottery for the game on the starblog and forum, so they rushed to participate.
The team was also very excited to get in line to experience the gaming pods. In between the queue, they hadnât forgotten to contact their family members and ask them to buy gaming pods and send them over, or simply come and take them home. They couldn’t wait to get in touch with everything on the Starnet!
The Hope Star Therians who hadnât yet regained their human form, looked on with enthusiasm and worked even harder to build up their inner strength. After another day, even more people returned to human form from beast form.
It might have been a coincidence, but the group of people who recovered were older and had been on Hope Star for at least five years in their Therian form. Unlike those who just came, or the young Therians, none of whom had recovered. With that situation, Old Turtle, the others and Bai Li came together to discuss the situation and came to a fair conclusion.
The power accumulated in the body was still related to Hope Star. The senior Therians had accumulated more power, and were just short of the door. Bai Li providing his grass and wood clear spirit, just became the key to open the door. As long as there was preparation, the door will naturally open at the sound of the key.
For those young Therians, although they already had the key their power wasnât enough, so they still needed more exercise. In time, they could also be restored to their original appearance.
Similar to the day they came over on the airship, they ran into Bai Changsheng and his young granddaughter who had regressed to infancy. The latter hadnât yet regained her human form, but had already recovered her human-form consciousness. She now stayed with her grandfather all day long, and the grandchild was living hopefully.
“No wonder.” Zhu MoLing pondered for a moment and said, “Wen XingYao and I took more than twice as long to completely recover from Genetic Collapse Disorder as you did, and that’s even when my brother was feeding us energy every day It should also be because it hadnât been long since we regressed back to infancy. The reason for that makes sense⊔
After a while, Wen XingYao and Tang Ying found a secluded place and had an online meeting with the other top brass of the military, plus the president, vice president and other leaders of the Imperial Research Institute to discuss how to announce the news to the whole Empire.
The four members of the Bai Li family also found a place to talk about what had happened to them over the years.
Zhu MoLing had obviously been looking for Bai Li for three years, and had the little twist that he was about to meet his brother he regressed back to his infancy, but the result was good. Zhu Shuo and Yan Siya both spent the first year searching for their youngest son with their eldest son, but one year later they entered the late stages of Genetic Collapse Disorder and had to live on Hope Star.
As the subject of that search, Bai Li seriously and sincerely apologized to the three of them. He said that he was too capricious and hadnât thought too much about his family, so that they were so anxious that they lost their manners in the pastâŠ
“I don’t blame you. Saving the world is more important.” Zhu Shuo stroked his youngest son’s head, uttered that rather middle-aged remark, and then concluded, “Although our family was reunited only after three years, all of us are disease-free and pain-free, which means that our efforts in these three years werenât useless at all.”
“Yes, QingLing. We as a family don’t care about gains and losses, so don’t apologize to us again in the future, or Mom will have to get angry.” Yan Siya followed and patted the back of Bai Li’s hand. She smiled with a happy soft face, then brought up another matter, “ButâŠNow that we’ve recovered, shouldn’t we find time to go back to the clan? The clan has always been united, but since your brother, as Patriarch, hasnât shown up for so long, everyone should be worried. Now is the right time to go back. Not only to put everyone at ease, but also to announce the good news to them.”
Bai Li thought about it and felt that his mother had a point. Not only had his brother been away for too long, he also hadnât been back for more than three years and had almost forgotten where the clan’s gate opened.
Furthermore, the seeds in the planting fields had successfully sprouted and were growing well, so there was nothing for him to worry about for the time being.
“Then we’ll leave this afternoon or tomorrow?” Bai Li nodded and agreed. “But can we go back to Sweet and Sour Spare Ribs Star first, and give my little disciple Song Xinran a ride? His family is a side branch of our clan, and it just so happens that yesterday he called to tell me that his family was urging him to come home again. He refused, saying he wanted to help me look after the houseâŠI’ll collect the ripe vegetables in the yard and transplant the rest into my space, so I can plant them in the clan’s land or on Hope Star.â
Bai Li arranged the future of those vegetables in a few seconds, and also prepared to give Song Xinran a quiet “surprise.” The other three naturally agreed to this arrangement.
“Ahem.” Zhu MoLing coughed heavily, looked at his brother and asked, “QingLing, do you want to ask Wen XingYao if he will come back with us at this time? The two of youâŠMom and Dad actually have secretly discussed it with Grandfather Wen, and they think it’s best to settle down first.”
As for the method to “settle down,” it was just letting everyone in the two sides of the family, friends and elders, know about the relationship between the two, then expressing their blessings. To put it more directly, the certificate was not urgent, but shouldnât they be engaged?
When their father mentioned the matter, his brother’s expression wasnât very good, with a hint of obvious dislike, but because he liked him, he would have to hold his nose and accept this “brother-in-law” for his sake. Sometimes he couldn’t help but wonder how his brother could have fallen for such a bad man who would bully weak animals behind his back (especially himself when he had lost his memory while he was young).
However, liking was liking. Zhu MoLing watched the relationship between the two get better and better every day. He knew that there was no point in trying to stop him, so he had to let it go. Bai Li didnât think there was anything wrong with his brother’s statement. Also, his parents were looking forward to it. So, he thought it over, then said he would go to Wen XingYao later to ask, and if he was willing, they would go back together.
Wen XingYao naturally didnât refuse. He was also eager to have more people know about his relationship with Bai Li. Wen Xiao knew and also said he would go back with them. He was Wen XingYao’s grandfather, so he didnât want to miss one of his grandson’s life events. That was one of the reasons, the other reason wasâŠ
“Little Fox, this first batch of seeds have sprouted. Is it time to prepare to plant the second batch? The previous time I hadnât recovered enough to speak, so the military and the Imperial Research Institute robbed me of the first opportunity. This time grandfather will help you by pulling the Firewing Lionsâ big boys over. Let them help you plant them together!â
“And our Turtle tribe! Although their movement is a little slow, their meticulous aspect is best!”
“The Deer tribe, too!”
“The Leopard tribe can also help!”
“How can we do this without the Dove clan?â
Old Turtle suddenly leapt out from a corner and tried to be the first to stuff people into Bai Li’s hands.
After his initial surprise, Bai Li readily accepted the large group of people and confidently threatened, “I will take as many people as you can give me.â
However, unexpectedly, the Interstellar people’s enthusiasm for farming far exceeded his imaginationâŠ
Because they had to go back to their clans to gather people, Old Turtle followed Bai Li’s group and they set off together. Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Star, which he hadnât seen for three years, was almost unchanged from Bai Li’s memory. Or rather, all the residential stars were actually similar in landscape. Cold inorganic steel forests. Being able to live in them and always be keeping a happy mood would be strange.
Bai Li directly discussed that with the family. When they return to the clan, they must first give the clan lands a major transformation. Where to plant trees, where to plant flowers, and where to raise a few leisurely wandering fish. Of course, a few vegetable beds were also essential to existence.
This matter, when it would be put out for the ordinary Interstellar people, such a transformation would definitely be a big project, but with Bai Liâs Agricultural Deity’s identity plus his body full of the grass and wood clear spirit, it would make the transformations complete in minutes.
A few people engaged in discussions to the contrary, but the voices that didnât want to restrain him were a little louder and successfully attracted the attention of the others. They almost represented a family each, and all cast “I want” eager eyes at Bai Li. Then, Bai Li inexplicably received several large orders to help other clans to carry out green color transformations.
The specific transformation time wasnât set down, as they each needed to go back to their own clan first and speak to the clan people. When the materials were prepared, then heâd go.
After they said goodbye to each other, Bai Li, his parents, brother, Song Xinran, Fox One and Fox Two went back to the Heavenly Fox Clan’s lands. At the same time, unbeknownst to him, there were several photos of him walking with Wen XingYao, talking and laughing, that were posted on the Starnet by his fellow netizens.
[May I ask who the mysterious teenager in the photos is? I saw him staying with Admiral Wen on both Hope Star and Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Star. As we all know, some time ago, LiLi, the military department, and the Imperial Research Institute were working on a certain mysterious collaboration on Hope StarâŠBrothers, I now have an unbelievable guessâŠ]
Their relationship is now out to the world, will we be having a wedding soon? đ
