Swallowing the Stars: The Supreme Being of All Heavens

Chapter 25 1 A family should be complete.

"Father, Mother." Meanwhile, in a corner of the universe, Suk had already reunited with his parents.

"You child..." Su Kai glanced at Su Ke, who had already broken through to the planetary level, and then looked at the C6-class spaceship and a group of star-level powerhouses not far behind Su Ke. He had a lot to say, but now he couldn't say it.

My son is a completely different person now, and I can't treat him like a child anymore.

Suk said, "You can board my ship. What's the speed of your ship? B7 class? We don't need it."

Although they float in a vacuum, planetary beings do not need to breathe, and they can communicate in space using either primal energy or communication devices.

Hearing their son's boastful words, Su Kai and Alice were speechless. It was a B7-class spaceship, something they might not be able to afford even if they worked their whole lives, and their son had just casually given it away.

But considering the 1000 billion his son gave him... a B7-class spaceship really doesn't seem like much.

Su Kai and Alice boarded the C6-class spaceship and met Saki and the others inside. They were acquaintances, and the two sides exchanged greetings, but Saki and the others seemed rather reserved.

"Son, what are you planning to do next?" Su Kai couldn't help but ask when no one was around.

His own son had actually killed someone from the Blood Spring Society. What was the Blood Spring Society? It was a powerful force that occupied several star systems.

Even with a level nine guard of the Hengxing rank by his son's side, he was still no match for the Blood Spring Society.

That was a colossal creature that Su Kai and his wife could only look up at with fear in the past.

"I can't confront the Blood Spring Society head-on right now, so I plan to get away from the Philo system and other star systems within their sphere of influence," Suk said. "As long as we fly far enough away, the Blood Spring Society won't be able to find us, and we'll be much safer."

"Yes, that's definitely a good idea," Su Kai and his wife both agreed.

Blood Spring may be powerful, but in the grand scheme of the universe, it is merely an insignificant entity, ranking far below any other power in the Jialan Empire.

The Jialan Empire has a vast territory, directly controlling over ten thousand star systems and having more than eight hundred vassal early-stage civilizations! In such a vast area, the Blood Spring Society can only influence a very small part of it.

"The Philo system is 13.6 light-years in diameter. From our current position, it will only take us a little over a day to fly out of the Philo system," Suk said, a virtual star map appearing before him. He pointed to several locations. "There, there, including there... Philo, the Gray Desert, and several other star systems are all within the Blood Spring Society's sphere of influence, so we won't go there."

"At our spaceship's speed, it usually takes 2-4 days to traverse a star system."

"In just one month, we can traverse ten star systems! Across ten star systems, for Blood Spring to find us would be like looking for a needle in a haystack," Suk said. "Most importantly, we can appear anywhere; Blood Spring has no way of knowing where we'll go."

The universe is so vast that finding someone who deliberately hides is indeed incredibly difficult. For example, if someone were to hide in a remote asteroid belt in a starless region of space, without any contact with the outside world, who could find them?

"For safety, I will try to stay away from the Blood Spring Society's territory and will not easily land on any planet along the way. Our final destination this time is... the Azure Star System." Suk had obviously made plans in advance.

"The Azure Star System?" Su Kai and Alice felt the name sounded vaguely familiar.

"Yes, it's the border between the Jialan Empire and the Saiyan Empire, in the Canglan Star System at the edge." Suk pointed to a spot on the star map.

According to the cosmic map, the Azure Star System belongs to the territory of the "Mist Moon Empire," a nascent civilization. The Mist Moon Empire comprises nine star systems, making it a relatively powerful nascent civilization; many nascent civilizations only have one or two star systems. Among the vassal states of the Jialan Empire, the Mist Moon Empire is quite powerful, ranking among the top ten.

Su Kai and his wife looked at that place and compared it with their own position... it was indeed very far away.

"So far?" Alice exclaimed in surprise.

"It's safer this far away." Su Kai wished his son had chosen a place as far away as possible.

"At our current speed, it would take two years to reach the Azure Star System from here," Suk said. "As for where we'll settle down... we're citizens of the Jialan Empire, a mid-level civilization in the universe. Settling down in a place with a nascent civilization shouldn't be a problem." Moreover, he had enough Jialan coins and powerful guards, which gave him confidence. Otherwise, being in an unfamiliar place, who knew what might happen?

"We should be safe this far. If not, we can cross the empire's borders and enter other mid-level civilizations in the universe." Suk had considered other methods, such as joining a faction and buying property on an important empire planet like Purple Phoenix Star. Planets have a duty to protect their residents! And with a super-strong figure in charge, few would dare to cause trouble. But he wasn't reassured. He thought of the massacre on Moon River Star and felt it might not deter the Blood Spring Society. What if they plotted something or took a desperate gamble? He didn't want to risk his own and those around him's safety; it was best to avoid the Blood Spring Society finding him.

"Good, son, you did well." Su Kai and his wife felt there was nothing wrong with what their son did.

Suk said apologetically, "It means that you will have to spend the next two years on the spaceship, Father and Mother."

Su Kai and Alice exchanged a smile.

"Your mother and I have worked at Interstellar Travel Company for many years, and we're used to living on spaceships for long periods of time," Su Kai said with a nonchalant smile. "Besides, the situation is special right now, so it's normal to be patient. Things will be fine once we get there."

Alice suddenly frowned.

Seeing his wife's expression, Su Kai suddenly remembered something and slapped his forehead. "Ah, I forgot something." He looked at the strange Su Ke and said helplessly, "Your mother is pregnant."

Suk was dumbfounded. He suddenly had another sibling? But his parents were still "young"—in Earthling terms, they would only be a young couple in their twenties, so having a child was perfectly normal. He came to his senses and asked, "Then, Mother..."

Alice calmly touched her flat, unblemished belly. "I'm less than a month pregnant, I'm fine." With Alice's planetary-level physical strength, she could practically kill a dinosaur, so she certainly didn't look like anything was wrong.

Su Kai, who was a father for the second time, did not show any signs of worry.

Suk was worried that it might affect his mother's health. "Since Mother is pregnant, let's find a place to stay and wait for her to give birth..." He had prepared cultivation resources for his parents before, and the spaceship was also stocked with many things, enough for a long journey through space, but he hadn't considered the issue of pregnancy.

"I told you I'm fine." Alice didn't think there was anything wrong with her pregnancy and living on the spaceship. She shook her head. "I'm not that delicate. Ask your father. When you were born, we worked on the spaceship for more than half a year. We even got into several fights. We still gave birth to you and raised you to this age."

Suk listened in a daze, feeling as if he was truly lucky to have been born.
