Chapter 134 - Crossed paths

A few minutes later, the dejected Lan Xuanyu, with Captain Sun Weiping accompanying him personally, arrived before Lan Xiao and Nan Cheng, who were still suffering from the shock.

Lan Xiao and his wife were completely speechless after listening to Sun Weiping’s explanation and didn’t know what to say anymore.

Nan Cheng pulled Lan Xuanyu and smacked him on his buttocks a couple of times. Then, she hugged him tightly and cried out.

Lan Xuanyu received the beating honestly and didn’t dare to say anything.

Lan Xiao looked at his son, who had unexpectedly grown up so much. How could he not have mixed feelings?

Lan Xuanyu only said one sentence, and it completely melted their hearts, “Daddy, Mommy, I just wanted to protect you guys…”

The spacecraft finally returned to its original route, and after going through such a big incident, other than the golden dragon that appeared out of nowhere, it was without a doubt that Lan Xuanyu became the little hero from the economy-class cabin.

Lan Xiao politely rejected the captain’s kind offer to upgrade their cabin, as the family of three still preferred to stay in the economy-class cabin.

After a series of praises, Lan Xuanyu could finally sit on his own seat peacefully. In the days that followed, he sat there in a daze, thinking about the shock in his heart.

“Mommy, do you think the strength of a human can fight a spaceship?” Lan Xuanyu turned to ask Nan Cheng.

Nan Cheng replied, “Mommy doesn’t know either. Legend has it that those strong Battle Armor Masters could possibly deal with miniature spaceships. You’ll naturally find out if you manage to cultivate to that level in the future.”

When Lan Xuanyu was little, he saw the magnificent and extensive Federal fleet, and after listening to so many stories regarding spaceships, he instinctively believed that spaceships were the strongest forces in the universe. Being so, he was determined to become a warship pilot.

However, that cool move by Tang Le totally changed his perception!

If a human’s strength was enough to counter a spaceship, then why learn warship piloting? He just needed to increase his strength and become so strong that he wouldn’t even be afraid when facing a warship!

Master said that humans cannot survive directly in space, but didn’t he see Tang Le living in space?

He hadn’t had any protection at all and simply strolled around in space to destroy the spaceship.

Everything was just too unbelievable.

Uncle Noble Le should be on this spacecraft, but Lan Xuanyu couldn’t see the first-class cabin upstairs. He was filled with curiosity at the moment and really wanted to go up, but he didn’t know who to ask.

He only remembered Young Noble Le telling him that it was a secret between them.

Soon, this unlucky spacecraft finally landed in Heaven Dou Planet safely. When the spacecraft landed, there were already many police cars and various crew members surrounding it.

It was without a doubt that they would be interrogating all the passengers regarding what happened, and would be performing a full check and servicing on this spacecraft.

All the relevant information had already been sent over, and the passengers had to be questioned one by one.

At the police station in the space center, Lan Xuanyu finally saw Young Noble Le again.

Due to his special status, Tang Le and Le Qingling were naturally the first to be questioned. There was a lot of pressure from Tang Le’s consortium on the police.

After answering a few simple questions, Tang Le walked out wearing his mask and hood, ready to leave under the protection of the bodyguards.

Lan Xuanyu’s family was still waiting outside, the second ones in the queue to be questioned; obviously, because of this young hero, Lan Xuanyu.

When Tang Le walked past Lan Xuanyu, he stopped in his tracks and signalled for the bodyguards to wait. Then he went to Lan Xuanyu, pulled his mask down, and revealed his handsome face.

Their eyes met, and Lan Xuanyu got excited immediately. He wanted to speak, but Tang Le spoke first, “We meet again. Your name is Lan Xuanyu, right?”

Seeing Tang Le all of a sudden, both Lan Xiao and Nan Cheng became astounded. Only then did they find out that this superstar had actually been on the same spacecraft as them.

“En en, yes, uncle.”

Tang Le reached out to touch his head. “Uncle heard all about what you did. You’re amazing, little hero. Alright, uncle will make a move first now. We will meet again if we’re fated to.” After speaking, he waved to Lan Xuanyu and strode off with his bodyguards.

“Remember our promise,” Tang Le’s gentle voice echoed in Lan Xuanyu’s ears.

He really had so many questions for Tang Le, but now he didn’t have a chance anymore.

Le Qingling, who was next to Tang Le, asked in a low voice, “Why did that child look so familiar? Did we see him somewhere before? How do you know him?”

Tang Le answered, “In a concert a few years back, do you remember the child I carried while singing “Protect time, protect you”? That was him.”

Le Qingling finally saw the light and looked at Tang Le doubtfully. She turned her head, but she could no longer see Lan Xuanyu, as the bodyguards were blocking her view.

“Why do I find that this child looks quite like you, huh? He’s quite good looking and also has the potential to be a superstar. If not for the color of his hair, I would have thought that the two of you were related.”

Tang Le stopped in his tracks, and his gaze turned slightly perplexed again. “Do we really look alike?”

“Yes, both of you look alike, but give off different auras. His eyes and hair color aren’t the same as yours,” Le Qingling replied. “This child seems quite bright. Should we get our company’s talent scout to ask?”

Tang Le shook his head. “He knows how to pilot a space warship. How many kids his age have you seen pilot a space warship? He must be a gifted youth; he would definitely not be interested in our profession.”

Le Qingling immediately understood. “That’s true! This child is outstanding, having destroyed two mechas. Amazing!”

As both of them were chatting, they slowly walked out of the space center.

Under the protection of the bodyguards, the people at the exit of the space center could not see Young Noble Le, who was inside.

At this moment, among the many people who were there for pickup, there were two figures that were especially eye-catching.

They were two beauties—one older and one younger. They were each wearing a black mask, the same one as Tang Le’s, but what little features that could be seen attracted the attention of passersby.

The older one had long silver-hair that glistened and almost touched the ground. Her purple eyes were deep and peaceful, giving one a sense of calmness.

The younger one, a little girl, had long dark blue hair that reached her waist. Her dark blue eyes were extremely bright, and her eyelashes would flutter whenever she blinked as if they could talk.

“Teacher Nana, why aren’t they out yet?” the little girl said, looking up. “We’ve been waiting for so long.”

They were Nana and Dong Qianqiu—the pair of master and disciple. It was Nana who wanted to fetch them, and Dong Qianqiu, after having seen Lan Xuanyu so many times but not having any significant impressions of him, was also quite curious about this youth whom Teacher Nana was always constantly thinking about, hence she came along too.

Nana said, “I heard that their spacecraft bumped into space pirates during their journey, and they probably have to go through some questioning. They should be out very soon.”

While the two of them were speaking, the bodyguards at the other side were escorting Young Noble Le and Le Qingling out.

It was almost as if there was an invisible attraction, as Nana turned her head and looked toward the group of bodyguards.

Tang Le, who was walking in the middle, seemed to feel something too, as he turned to look in Nana’s direction.

However, Le Qingling was next to him, as well as the bodyguards, so his line of sight was blocked.

There were about 10 meters between Nana and Tang Le, and the latter’s group slowly got further and further away. In the end, they didn’t see each other.

After waiting for another 20 minutes or so, Lan Xuanyu’s family finally walked out.
