Chapter 498 Return to the Chu Family
Pei Yun kept her eyes fixed on Yi Tianfeng, who was standing opposite her. She had a strange feeling in her heart. The people around her were either fearful and timid, or angry and hateful, or generous and resolute...
But the person in front of her just confronted her expressionlessly, without a single emotion on his face.
Her heart moved, and the golden ball in her left eye appeared and disappeared, prying into the memory of the person opposite her.
Yi Tianfeng's eyes flickered slightly. After a moment, Pei Yun's expression could not help but change slightly. She was about to say something when a weak voice came from behind her: "...Senior Pei, wait a moment."
At this critical moment, the Chu family helped Chu Zewen out of the hospital, and Li Yi and others followed him to Pei Yun's side.
Chu Zewen and Pei Yun looked at each other, then turned to the people at the headquarters with a calm expression, speaking in a light but firm tone:
"...Everyone, when Senior Pei came to my Source Star, the first person she came into contact with was my K City Third Base. Although she is not from my Source Star, she has never harmed the people of my Source Star since she appeared. Not only that, she also rescued ordinary people in my Third Base and treated their injuries for free..."
"...She needs meteorites from outer space, but she has never snatched them from us. She has only used her treasures in fair exchange. She has also never enslaved us, the people of Yuanxing, to do things for her. With her strength, it would be easy for her to rob or enslave us, but she didn't do that..."
Chu Zewen turned his head and glanced at Pei Yun, a gleam in his eyes, "She also took the initiative to announce the cultivation system of her own world. Even if she is not from the source star, she is still a friend worth cooperating with... Deputy Minister Zhao intends to seize Senior Pei's treasure and let Xu Tian come to do it. This behavior will only damage the image of our base. Do we need to sacrifice everyone for such a person?"
What Chu Zewen said was reasonable. The most important thing was that the threat of death was right above their heads. Did they really have to fight to the death for a Deputy Minister Zhao and a powerful alien?
Chu Zewen's words were meant to help Pei Yun clarify the situation and also to give both parties a way out. Obviously, many people present began to hesitate.
Among the eleven senior officials present, Deputy Minister Zhao was lying on the ground half-dead, having fainted.
At this time, one of the middle-aged men stood up. He first glanced at Zhou An who was standing next to Li Yi, and then looked at Pei Yun:
"... Senior Pei, we saw the dispute between you and Xu Tian in the surveillance. It was indeed inappropriate for Xu Tian and his group to start fighting right away, but the rules set by the base require that anyone entering the base must verify their identity, so there is nothing wrong with the law. Of course, you are trying to save people, which is understandable. Director, I think it would be better to arrange for the treatment of the injured first. I think Senior Pei should not leave City A during this period of time. We will discuss cooperation with you in a few days. What do you think?"
"...Okay." The magic sword in Pei Yun's hand disappeared out of thin air, and the sword light in the air also disappeared.
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and some psychics and several high-ranking officials began to persuade them -
"Director, I think what Vice Minister Zhou said makes sense. Although this senior is not from our Yuanxing, he has never done anything that is detrimental to our Yuanxing. What happened to Vice Minister Zhao was an accident..."
"Let's send Vice Minister Zhao and Xu Tian to the hospital for treatment first!"
"This senior also wanted to save Director Chu's brother..."
"Yeah! Let's make a big deal out of a small matter!"
Yi Tianfeng looked at Chu Zewen steadily, then turned to Pei Yun and said, "...Since Senior Pei broke into the base just to save Chu Zewen, it is understandable. I will come to visit you after the base has dealt with today's matter..."
"Welcome to the Chu family." Chu Zewen said to Pei Yun, "Senior Pei, why don't you stay at my house for a while? I'll give you the meteorite I got during this time..."
Pei Yun nodded, and Chu's mother stepped forward to support Chu Zewen: "Zewen, go back to the ward first!"
Chu Zewen shook his head: "I'm going home too. It's the same if I recuperate at home. Brother, Li Yi, go drive over here, and let's go home..."
"You are so weak, can you hold on?" Chu's mother and father looked at their youngest son worriedly.
Pei Yun saw that Chu Zewen was pale and his lips were bloodless, so she knew that he was just holding on. She took out the Suzaku puppet and enlarged it in mid-air: "Let's go, where is your home?"
The people in the base stared in amazement as Pei Yun and his group boarded the Suzaku puppet and disappeared from their sight at an extremely fast speed...
Someone couldn't help but murmur, "What kind of plane is this? Is it powered by energy crystals?"
"The technology on this planet where the aliens live is more advanced than that of the source planet!"
……
On the puppet, Pei Yun looked at the scenery of City A. Looking at the bustling streets below, she felt as if she had returned to Blue Star. She smiled and asked, "I came all the way from City K to City A, and I found that the closer I got to here, the weaker the radiation seemed..."
Zhou An nodded: "When the meteorite hit the source star, City A was one of the cities with the least damage, so the top management decided to build the headquarters base in this city. There are the most superpowers here, more than 100,000, so even if there was a meteorite, it would have been found and dealt with long ago. Therefore, City A is basically not threatened by radiation, and people in City A can live a normal life without wearing protective helmets or protective clothing..."
Li Yi enviously said, "I wonder when K City will be able to return to normal?"
"Once you collect all the meteorites for me, the radiation will disappear. Haven't you noticed that the radiation in City K has weakened a lot..." Pei Yun glanced at him.
Li Yi's eyes lit up at first, but then he asked doubtfully: "Senior Pei, the meteorite you exchanged also has radiation..."
"I have a way to eliminate the radiation."
Hearing this, everyone on the puppets looked at her with sparkling eyes, but Pei Yun only said a simple sentence and didn't say much.
Wan Xiaoqing reminded him, "Senior Pei, this matter is far from over. Before you came, we suspected that Zewen's serious injury was related to the treasure you gave him. Zewen used your treasure to exchange for a lot of meteorites. Those treasures, especially the cultivation methods, caused an uproar in the base. I'm afraid they won't let you go back to K City so easily..."
Zhou An also said: "...My uncle, that is the Deputy Minister Zhou who just stood up, got the 'Internal Power Heart Method' from Zewen. He practiced it alone in the room for three days and three nights. When he came out, he told us that this method was amazing. It seemed that he had found the way to practice all of a sudden. Originally, my uncle wanted to ask Zewen for an introduction and ask for advice from the senior..."
Pei Yun glanced at Chu Zewen who had fallen asleep not far away and said, "...To be honest, I think your general manager is very suspicious. He doesn't seem to want to cooperate with me. But as long as you have meteorites, you can trade with me privately, or if you need my guidance, I will live in the Chu family during this period..."
When these words were spoken, everyone was very happy. After all, this was a real big boss with many treasures!
