Chapter 262: Chapter 254: Proposal
"Oh, okay, I know. I’ll head straight to the door and wait for you in about twenty minutes."
After hanging up the phone that was as big as a brick, Lu Yun looked up to see Xia Yuan and the others’ questioning gazes, "It was Shitou who called. He said he and his grandfather will come pick me up shortly, the leader wants to meet with us."
"It must be because of these." Second Uncle Lu looked at the copy of the cultivation technique for spiritual power and physical art on the table, written in two different scripts. It could only be because of those.
"Mmhm," Lu Yun nodded.
The gazes of Second Aunt Lu, Lu Aiguo, and Xia Yuan moved back to the cultivation techniques. It had to be said that the recent talk about aliens and cosmic civilizations that Lu Yun had shared was a huge shock to them all, leaving them feeling like it was still a dream.
Second Uncle Lu and Second Aunt Lu’s first reaction was that Xiaoyun’s master must be an alien, no wonder everything about her was so secretive.
Lu Aiguo and Xia Yuan had already been informed by Lu Yun through a psychic message, and knew that the source of Lu Yun’s space was an advanced interstellar civilization, somehow claimed by their daughter. It was incomplete at first, but Shitou inadvertently brought back the missing part of the space.
Tsk, talking about fate, there’s no explaining it...
Aliens, so there really is a world beyond ours?
But to think our own family came across it, no matter how you think about it, it all seems so mysterious, isn’t it?
Even though they felt like they were dreaming, no one questioned Lu Yun’s words. The reason being, with the alien script right there, no matter how clever Lu Yun was, she couldn’t possibly have "created" a new script herself, right?
"At least now we have several kinds of cultivation methods, which solves a big problem," Second Uncle Lu felt relieved. With relief also came a bit of worry now that the family knew too much.
"Let’s keep what we discussed today to ourselves and never bring it up again. We shouldn’t pry into these matters anymore. If Xiaoyun has anything she can tell us in the future, she will. What we shouldn’t know, we shouldn’t inquire about," Second Uncle Lu said.
"Don’t worry, we all know what’s important and we’re not the gossiping type," Second Aunt Lu assured Second Uncle Lu.
"Yeah, you can rest easy, Dad," Lu Aiguo and Xia Yuan both nodded in agreement.
"Alright, let’s check the time, it’s about right. Xiaoyun should go out to wait now," Second Uncle Lu said, nodding and then, concerned that Shitou and the others might arrive early, he urged Lu Yun to leave.
"Dad, Xia Yuan and I will accompany Xiaoyun to the living room to wait, there’s no need to stay at the door. We can just use our spiritual power to monitor the outside," Lu Aiguo smiled, then turned to his parents, "Mom, Dad, it’s getting late, you should go back to your room for your elixir bath. Otherwise, you’ll wake up late tomorrow."
"That’s a good idea," Second Uncle Lu had no objections; after all, he and his wife did not plan to show themselves when Shitou and the parents arrived.
Watching Second Uncle Lu and Second Aunt Lu return to their room, Lu Aiguo, Xia Yuan, and Lu Yun remained in the living room as they waited.
"Dad, Mom, let’s build our own secret force," Lu Yun released a psychic energy shield and spoke to Lu Aiguo and Xia Yuan.
Eh?
Lu Aiguo and Xia Yuan were both taken aback by Lu Yun’s suggestion, but Lu Aiguo quickly responded affirmatively, "Shitou had previously mentioned starting a security company and training some bodyguards for our own use. I think that’s a good idea, too."
"Yes, on the surface, a security company would work as a cover. That way, recruiting and training wouldn’t raise suspicions. But that’s not the secret force I’m talking about.
I think we could train a group of people openly, and in secret, we train another group. Those we cultivate in secret should preferably be trained from a young age so they’ll be more loyal and more efficient in their service," Lu Yun continued while keeping an eye on Lu Aiguo and Xia Yuan’s expressions.
Their faces changed immediately, from astonishment to contemplation and gradually showing signs of being moved, "Why did you suddenly bring this up?"
"I’ve revealed too much, and everything is too tempting. I’m a Lu, part of the Lu Family. Once they know about me, you’re both in danger," Lu Yun looked at them.
"Relying on others for protection is never as reliable as having our own people. Besides, the Lu Family’s wealth will only grow, and we’ll eventually need our own forces to guard it.
The previous owner of my space was from an advanced interstellar civilization, and her family’s power was immense. They had overt power and power hidden in the shadows. In fact, the hidden power was the elite of her family and their reliance and retreat. This wasn’t exclusive to her family; other great families operated similarly."
"You’re right, but building such a force isn’t something that can be done overnight. And if we’re found out, it wouldn’t look good. After all, we are protected by others in secret, which is also a form of surveillance isn’t it?" Lu Aiguo voiced his concerns.
"We’ll take it slow, there’s no rush to get it done today or tomorrow," Lu Yun didn’t see it as an issue, "As long as Dad is willing to go through with it, there’s always a way to avoid others’ eyes. The Great Wall was built over seventeen hundred years. We don’t have to rush."
"Hehe."
Upon hearing their daughter’s reference to the centuries-long construction of the Great Wall, both Lu Aiguo and Xia Yuan couldn’t help but laugh. At the same time, Lu Aiguo truly took his daughter’s words to heart, "Don’t worry, since you and Shitou both say it’s necessary, then it must be. Alright, let me plan carefully. We will take our time and get things done one day."
"If longevity is extended with the Gene Elixir, Earth definitely won’t be able to accommodate an ever-growing population in the future."
Lu Yun looked at Lu Aiguo and Xia Yuan, "Since we already know that there are other civilizations in the universe and many planets suitable for human habitation, our ultimate move toward interstellar life is inevitable. Mom, Dad, we might even have the chance to see it."
"So you better hurry up with developing that Gene Elixir. We hope to live to see that day too," Xia Yuan mused, her imagination piqued by the conversation.
"Definitely. Right now, a single planet harbors countless nations, but in the future, maybe a single family could own an entire planet as their private residence," Lu Yun nodded, secretly thinking, even if she hadn’t yet developed the Gene Elixir, there was still a stockpile in her space. Others might run out, but her family would never lack for it.
"Having an entire planet as a private residence is unnecessary; it would be too boring with nowhere to go and visit," Xia Yuan laughed, amused by the picture Lu Yun painted.
