Chapter 1226: 1226. You Have Finished Your Apprenticeship

“They’re escorting the logistic transport fleets within the bounds of the planetary sector of the Federation. It seems like a safe and easy mission. They might think Lingtian is there to sit back and gain merits. However, if the mission is really safe, why were there so many ambushes in the past few years? I’m sure that you still remember Mission Nestling, right?” Qi Yaoyang said in a mocking tone.

The staff officer shook his head. “It’s hard to forget that mission. The First Men’s Military Academy suffered great losses because of that ambush. If General Ling Xiao wasn’t there…” The staff officer trembled when he thought of the frightening consequences. The Federation went on a tirade when they heard of the ambush. When they discovered that Twilight was behind the ambush, they swore to raze Twilight to the ground.

“I’m sure that you understand how enticing of a target a newly formed independent army as well as three fully-loaded carriers are. It’s definitely enticing enough for Twilight to take the risk.” Qi Yaoyang could almost see a net slowly wrapping around the fleet.

The staff officer got anxious. “Shall we send men to receive them?”

After the war had been dragged on for so long, the supplies within each division had depleted greatly. They were all lacking supplies. If this batch of supplies was stolen by their enemies, the morale of the soldiers would drop severely and they would have to resort to more dangerous means to procure supplies like raiding their enemies’ starships. It would be a heavy blow to the Federation.

“How do we help them? Do you even know where they are?” Qi Yaoyang asked.

To prevent their enemies from ambushing their logistics fleets, no one would know where the fleet was unless the fleet contacted them directly.

The staff officer was so worried that he forgot this important point. He knew that his idea was useless but he couldn’t think of anything else. He asked his general, “What do we do? Are we going to just wait for them to be ambushed?”

“Be ambushed? That might not happen.” If it was other independent armies, they might be in danger. But, their enemies were targeting Lingtian Independent Army.

Qi Yaoyang was envious of Ling Xiao. Why did he have such a perfect son? Although Ling Xiao had helped his son secretly, most of Ling Lan’s achievements were obtained through his own hard work. He had three sons of his own and he had helped them too, but none of them became as accomplished as Ling Lan. Hence, he deduced that the father wasn’t the main factor in his son’s achievements.

He felt extremely satisfied that he had made the right decision to stuff his youngest son in Ling Lan’s team (He had forgotten how he rejected Qi Long in the past). Under Ling Lan’s guidance, his son had exceeded even his own accomplishments. His son, Qi Long, became a major general at 24 years old.

Qi Yaoyang suddenly felt proud of himself for raising such a tiger son. However, this proud feeling only lasted for one second as he suddenly remembered that Ling Lan was 24 years old too but was already a lieutenant general. Comparisons angered people. Qi Yaoyang immediately threw the thought to the back of his mind. He didn’t want to see Ling Xiao’s smug face anymore. Hmph.

“Why?” The staff officer didn’t know the details of Lingtian Independent Army so he was confused by his superior’s confidence in them.

“You’ll understand soon.” Although the staff officer was his confidant, he wouldn’t tell him everything. He was exceptionally careful when it came to the safety of his son.

The staff officer had worked under Qi Yaoyang for quite a while so he knew when to push his boundaries and when not not. He immediately stopped probing on the matter and went back to his work. He was still worried about Lingtian but he controlled his emotions.

As Qi Yaoyang’s confidant, it was important to know his limits. Qi Yaoyang liked smart people, not talkative ones.

“Master, I’ve detected turbulence in the Qingri wormhole.” Meng Lan suddenly alerted Ling Lan.

“Little Four.” Ling Lan turned serious as she called for Little Four.

“Yes, Boss.” Little Four appeared beside Meng Lan immediately. Ever since Meng Lan took over the control of Base Nebula’s mainframe, Little Four would appear as a hologram occasionally.

“Analyze the turbulence.” Ling Lan never expected their journey to Twilight to be smooth. She remained vigilant for any possible danger. She wouldn’t let any suspicious activity go undetected. Even if most of it was just residual energy left from meteorite collisions, she didn’t let her guard down.

“Yes, Boss.”

“Yes, master.”

Little Four and Meng Lan started analyzing the data. Ling Lan closed her eyes and rested her mind. Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure.

“Little Blossom?” Ling Lan was uncertain.

She looked at the expressionless little girl with long hair floating behind him. Was this Little Blossom? Wait, Little Blossom was a boy!

“Yes.” Little Blossom replied indifferently.

“Your hair…” His hair was so long that it was almost touching the ground. Ling Lan didn’t know what to say.Little Blossom waved his hand, and his hair was chopped off until ear length. The chopped locks of hair turned into rays of light and disappeared in the air.

“I forgot to cut it,” Little Blossom replied. His face turned red as he spoke. He looked extremely cute.

‘Is he embarrassed?’ Ling Lan looked at Little Blossom who was trying his best to remain calm. She almost laughed out loud. “It’s perfectly normal. When I get busy, I forget to cut my hair too.” In reality, Ling Lan was able to cut her hair with a single thought. Hence, she was just consoling Little Blossom with empty words.

Little Blossom looked at her brightly. There was a faint smile on his face.

“Why are you so free today?” Ling Lan remembered that Number Four had taken Little Blossom away for tutoring. She hadn’t seen him in a long time.

“I finished my apprenticeship,” Little Blossom said.

“Congratulations.” Ling Lan clapped softly. She was proud of Little Blossom. When Little Blossom saw the happiness in his master’s eyes, his core was reactivated and his data reconfigured. It happened so quickly that he felt his body heating up.

“I wonder what you have learned. I hope to see you in action soon.” Ling Lan was curious about what Number Four taught Little Blossom.
