1610 Temporary Change of Heart

In the northern hemisphere of Earth.

Just as winter passed and spring came, the breeze in the air had already begun to carry a trace of warmth. Elvy strode towards such a comfortable wind. She had not walked far when she felt her body heat up.

However, she knew very well that this heat was not only because of the weather, but also because of the restlessness in her heart.

Chu Nan was finally returning!

It had been more than a year since Chu Nan left the Earth Federation to participate in the Garden Hunting Assembly. Now that she recalled it, Elvy found it unbelievable.

How did he leave for so long unknowingly?

If not for the fact that more than half a year ago, the royal family of the Declan Empire had finally announced that they had confirmed that Chu Nan had not really secretly learned the Exterminating Heart Technique and was acquitted, Elvy would have been able to contact him intermittently through the Milky Way Network and know that he had always been safe. She could not imagine how she could safely survive such a long period of torture.

Fortunately, Chu Nan was finally returning.

Chu Nan’s familiar face that had already been engraved in her heart countless times flashed through her mind. Elvy’s footsteps quickened again.

In the year that Chu Nan had left, she had not been idle at all. Apart from continuing her studies and research, she had spent almost all her free time cultivating martial techniques.

Her talent was not bad to begin with. Coupled with the support of her family and Chu Nan’s guidance when he occasionally contacted her remotely through the Milky Way Network, her improvement was even faster.

In just a year, she had already increased from the third-stage Internal Breath Realm to the fifth-stage Internal Breath Realm and was only a step away from Void Break.

Of course, although this speed of improvement was already quite shocking compared to ordinary martial artists of the same age, it was still far from meeting the requirements in her heart.

This was because this was completely incomparable to the speed at which Chu Nan and Angie Prairie increased. If not for her belief, Elvy would have long given up on chasing after them.

In fact, this speed of improvement was even inferior to Chu Xiaoxi…

“Heh, Elvy, you’re here first.”

Just as Chu Xiaoxi’s face flashed through his mind, a light shout sounded in the air. Looking up, Chu Xiaoxi quickly landed from the sky and happened to land beside Elvy.

This was the reason why Elvy felt a little defeated. Even Chu Xiaoxi had already broken through to the Void Break Realm and could fly freely in the sky, but she still stopped before breaking through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate.

Being able to fly or not being able to fly was not only a very obvious difference for her, but also for all martial artists.

“Yes, I… I can’t wait.” Elvy blushed slightly, but she still calmly said her thoughts, “Have you contacted Chu Nan? Where is he now?”

Chu Xiaoxi shook her head, “I don’t know. The last time I contacted him, he happened to be performing his last spatial jump. Calculating the time, he should be close to the teleportation door on Earth now.”

“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go quickly.” Elvy waved her hand and quickly walked towards a helipad in the corner of the academy.

As a special student of the Star Cloud Academy’s Life Science Academy, and after participating in two major research projects last year, Chu Xiaoxi was given a portion of the privileges by the Life Science Academy, including being able to mobilize the small floating shuttle under the Life Science Academy at any time.

However, Elvy had even left the academy before, so she had naturally never used it.

Now, in order to see Chu Nan earlier, she could not care less.

After picking up Chu Xiaoxi, Elvy immediately gave the order to the mainframe A.I. of the floating shuttle to reach the surface space station as quickly as possible. Then, in less than two hours, the two of them successfully arrived.

However, what puzzled the two of them was that they still could not contact Chu Nan in the past two hours.

According to the Star Field diagram near Earth, no matter which stargate it was, it should not take more than two hours to cross over.

“Could something have happened?”

The two of them had this ominous thought at the same time.

It was not that they wanted to curse Chu Nan, but because he had always had all kinds of accidents in the past two years, causing them to worry.

Fortunately, their worry did not last long. As soon as she got out of the floating shuttle and entered the surface space station, Chu Xiaoxi saw a familiar face.

“Eh? Uncle Mu Luo? Why are you here?” Chu Xiaoxi looked at Mu Luo who suddenly appeared in front of them in surprise.

Ever since Mu Luo and the others were ordered to protect Chu Nan’s family last time, Chu Xiaoxi had become familiar with this taciturn and even a little wooden uncle. However, after the previous incident ended, Uncle Mu Luo returned to the Seres Security Company he belonged to and was rarely contacted because of work. Now that she saw him suddenly appear in front of her, Chu Xiaoxi was naturally very surprised.

“Chu Nan can’t come to see you for the time being.” Mu Luo was still as silent as before, but just a sentence from him immediately shocked Chu Xiaoxi and Elvy.

“Why? Could it be that something happened to him?” Elvy could not help but ask.

“No, he only has something on at the last minute.” Mu Luo shook his head.

“What is it? Is it more important than seeing us?” Chu Xiaoxi snorted softly, “He already said that he wanted to come to Earth to see us as soon as possible, but he changed his mind now. It’s really too outrageous. Moreover, can’t he inform us himself? Must he let you send the message? Could it be that he can’t even send us a message now?”

Elvy also looked at Mu Luo in confusion.

Just as Chu Xiaoxi had asked, even if Chu Nan could not come at the last minute, he could just send a message.

If he could not even send a message, wouldn’t he be in trouble?

“He’s not allowed to communicate with the outside world where he is now,” Mu Luo explained, but he was unwilling to reveal anything else.

No matter how Elvy and Chu Xiaoxi asked, Mu Luo did not continue to explain. The two of them could only helplessly accept this fact.

“Then… when will my brother return?” Chu Xiaoxi finally asked.

“I’m not sure for the time being. This is a temporary decision after the Federation’s military received the notice. Our company is only cooperating. I can’t give you an accurate answer as to how long it will take to complete.”

Mu Luo finally gave an explanation that exceeded a sentence, but this explanation confused Chu Xiaoxi and Elvy even more.

It was actually a mission jointly carried out by the Federation’s military and the Seres Security Company, but what did this have to do with Chu Nan?
