Marshal Kevin felt that his student was trying to trick him.

Not to mention other things, which cat would eat stones?

Did he think that he hadn't seen the live broadcast of this little furball?

"Anyone who has studied for more than the seventh grade knows that energy crystals are the hardest ore in the universe."

Marshal Kevin said that he had studied before!

Ji Xiuyun wasn't surprised that his teacher didn't believe him at all.

If he hadn't seen Yue An eat a bunch of energy crystals with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it either.

Yue An looked at Marshal Kevin and got up from Ji Xiuyun's lap. It jumped to the ground and shook its fur.

Ji Xiuyun glanced at Yue An and saw that Yue An was running towards the box of energy crystals. He immediately understood what Yue An wanted to do.

Marshal Kevin didn't take Yue An's actions to heart.

To him, his relationship with his student was deeper than that of an ancient Earth creature. It was more worthy of his attention.

He felt that his student was definitely up to something big!

And it was an extremely dangerous plan.

Seriously, that's more than five hundred energy crystals!!

Although more than five hundred energy crystals were nothing to Ji Xiuyun, he wasn't satisfied with what he had in reserve. He was still buying energy crystals from outside. Something must have gone wrong!

Others might not know, but he was very clear on how high the production rate of the energy crystal mine planet Ji Xiuyun held in his hands was. He was even more clear on where the ore that was mined in the end went, other than being routinely handed over to the Empire and exported.

Didn't they all go to Ji Xiuyun's legions?

Did he really think that the title of "Army of the War God" was so easy to come by?

Didn't he still need a lot of war experience and a huge amount of resources to get that title?

Excluding Ji Xiuyun's personal warehouse, in the warehouses of the seven legions under his command, there were definitely two to three warehouses that were specifically used to store energy crystals!

With Ji Xiuyun's reputation, if he really wanted to rebel, not to mention overturning the entire 18 star systems of the Empire of Sintes, it wouldn't be a problem for him to overturn a star system before the Empire could react.

Marshal Kevin knew that Ji Xiuyun was very dissatisfied with the Empire's political side protecting the upper echelons of the Scientific Research Department to fight against him.

Ji Xiuyun and Marshal Kevin had also been scheming against others in the open and in the dark.

Everyone was clear about this situation, but it was wrong to want to overthrow the current peaceful rule and cause the country to fall into civil strife.

Previously, when Ji Xiuyun went missing, the upper echelons of the Empire were even more anxious than the military — internal strife was one thing, but if an important person was really killed, then it would escalate to an external matter.

They were all very clear about this.

Marshal Kevin also knew that his student had been wronged all these years, which was directly reflected in his attitude of "Imperial Shield Marshal Kevin guarding the Imperial Planet". Unless it was something very important, he was determined not to return to the Imperial Planet.

"If you're really angry and want to fight with others, the Free Army in the 18th star system has been causing trouble again recently. Once your Silver Blade is rebuilt, go and chase them down."

Marshal Kevin tried his best to persuade him.

"It's not advisable to rashly drag the country into chaos."

Ji Xiuyun: "…"

That was really just cat food.

Ji Xiuyun swore that although he had opinions about the Empire's politics, he definitely didn't have any improper thoughts.

For so many years, he had always only given face to the Emperor, not because he was loyal to the Emperor, but because he simply wanted to protect himself and the peace of the country.

He was born and raised here, and he opened up new territory for the Empire and quelled the chaos of war only because of his love for his homeland and because he inherited the will of his parents.

Ji Xiuyun's parents were just civilians living in a star system bordering the Empire, and they were childhood sweethearts.

When they were still young, they had a brush with death in a border skirmish. It was the young Marshal Kevin who arrived in time to block the cannon fire that was about to end their lives.

After the incident, the two of them resolutely joined the army. Unfortunately, with their own strength, they couldn't leave the bordering planet and go to the Imperial Planet's core army even after spending decades.

In the end, Ji Xiuyun, who had followed his parents to join the army at a young age, was exceptionally talented. From a remote bordering planet, he muddled his way to a military rank that was high enough to enter the Imperial Planet's core army. Only then was he able to go to the Imperial Planet.

After that, his parents brought Ji Xiuyun to join Marshal Kevin's army without hesitation.

His parents' gene level and mental power level weren't high enough to enter the Imperial Planet's core army's frontline troops, so they were eventually included in the logistics department.

Marshal Kevin went to inspect once, and finally gave Ji Xiuyun's parents a chance to face their benefactor and express their gratitude.

It was also that time when Ji Xiuyun had rushed out of the Research Department, and was swiftly brought back to his own unit by Marshal Kevin who had rushed over in a swift and decisive manner.

Marshal Kevin had a very deep impression of Ji Xiuyun's parents.

They were two young people who had an extremely strong love and passion for everything in this world.

— — At least in Marshal Kevin's impression, out of the thousands of people he had saved, only these two had gritted their teeth and spent decades to come to him as a soldier to express their gratitude. They had also saved countless lives with their own hands.

Ji Xiuyun's parents' sacrifice also left a deep impression on Marshal Kevin.

Until the end of their lives, these two young people, who had only lived for a hundred years, still did their best to protect an orphanage in the war zone, ensuring that none of the children in the orphanage suffered fatal injuries.

Just like how Marshal Kevin had protected them, they also protected these children.

They said, "These innocent children are the ones who shouldn't die because of the war."

The oldest kid in the orphanage had now killed his way into Ji Xiuyun's army. At a young age, he defeated all of his competitors and became the commander of the Seventh Army, the only direct subordinate of their benefactor's only son.

Marshal Kevin once thought that this was the so-called innocence of a child, and so was the so-called inheritance.

The one who buried the two young people was Marshal Kevin. The one who handed the ashes to Ji Xiuyun was also Marshal Kevin. The one who silently accompanied Ji Xiuyun through the most difficult period of his life was also Marshal Kevin.

This was why Ji Xiuyun always maintained absolute trust in Marshal Kevin, and also why Marshal Kevin treated Ji Xiuyun with special regard and taught him everything he knew.

Marshal Kevin felt that a child taught by two people who held kindness and gratitude towards the world until their deaths should also be as sincere and passionate as their parents.

Ji Xiuyun didn't disappoint their expectations. He willingly took on the will of his parents who sacrificed themselves for the country, and felt proud of it.

However, it seemed that everyone who knew about this felt that Ji Xiuyun was a person who had suffered a great deal since he was young, and that his life was very painful.

Even Marshal Kevin felt that these experiences were too cruel for Ji Xiuyun.

However, Ji Xiuyun didn't show it, so he didn't say anything and remained silent.

However, it was impossible for him to go down the wrong path because of this.

Marshal Kevin still hoped that when he saw Ji Xiuyun's parents after his death, he would be able to happily tell them that their child was very outstanding and didn't let them down. He became the light of hope for the Empire!

But now, the light of hope seemed to be rebelling!

How could that be!

Absolutely not!

Marshal Kevin looked at the expressionless Ji Xiuyun and said in a very gentle and sincere tone, "If you really can't stand those guys from the research department, you can talk to the Emperor. No matter how difficult it is for him, he will definitely give you an explanation. After all, you've given him enough face since he ascended the throne. He will definitely have to make a decision no matter what."

However, if he really did that, the Emperor's attitude towards Ji Xiuyun and the military would definitely change.

After being promoted to Marshal for so many years, Ji Xiuyun had never asked for anything from the Emperor. It was always the Emperor who gave him money, honor, and status, and then he would accept the orders to go on expeditions or quell rebellions.

War was never a good thing.

However, people's ambitions were always expanding. If you didn't swallow me up, I would occupy you. If you softened your attitude, your opponent would think that you were weak and easy to bully. The next second, they would send a group of people to test the borders.

In the end, there had to be a winner. Only then would they be able to settle down and live their lives peacefully.

Ji Xiuyun listened to his teacher talk about the principles of life in a soft and creepy tone. In the end, he chose to interrupt Marshal Kevin's attempt to feed him chicken soup.

"Teacher," he said, "That's really cat food."

"Nonsense!" Marshal Kevin slammed the table. "I've seen the information. Who's a cat that eats stones?!"

Ji Xiuyun was silent for two seconds. "… My cat."

"Meow."

Yue An rolled over with its little paws pushing a spirit stone. Then it squatted in front of Marshal Kevin and meowed at him.

Marshal Kevin lowered his head and looked at the little furball sitting on the fluffy carpet.

Yue An was really a very cute cat.

Its snow-white fur was long, and it looked like a soft and fluffy ball. Its fur was glossy and shiny, and it looked like a ball of transparent snow under the sun. Only its ears, which were relatively sparse, revealed a cute pink color under the sun.

That pair of cat eyes were bright and lively. When it stared at people, it was as if it was acting coquettishly at people all the time, asking people to play with it.

Marshal Kevin's heart melted into a puddle of water.

Then he looked at the soft and fluffy ball of fur. It reached out its paws and pressed down on the energy crystal. Then it lowered its head and bit down, leaving a small hole in the energy crystal.

Marshal Kevin: "…"

Marshal Kevin: "?????"

… F * ck!

I was scared to death.

Ji Xiuyun repeated, "It's really cat food."

Marshal Kevin watched as Yue An lay down on the carpet, licking and biting the energy crystal with its four claws. It quickly ate the energy crystal that had troubled the researchers for two hundred years. It looked as if it was eating candy as easily as if it was eating candy.

Marshal Kevin: "…"

F * ck.

It was like a dream.

The doorbell of the delivery robot interrupted Marshal Kevin's shock.

The tall and burly Ji Xiuyun went to open the door and blocked the robot's probing head, so that no one could see the living room.

Then he came back with a food trolley.

Most of the food was for Yue An.

One thing to note was that the food was from Ji Xiuyun's own salary.

Ji Xiuyun placed all the dishes in the dining car on the table, then looked at his teacher and cat.

Marshal Kevin, who had lived for more than 200 years, met his student's gaze. He got up and sat at the table with a glass of milk. He quickly used his Level 99 skills to change the topic.

"That's great. I was worried about how to investigate this matter," he said.

"Yesterday afternoon, the little guy from the research department came to me and said that the enemy of my enemy is my friend. He wanted me to trick you. In order to express his sincerity, he gave me a piece of information."

Ji Xiuyun paused in his action of sitting down and tilted his head to look at his teacher.

"He said that they want me to go on an expedition …" Marshal Kevin paused. "To conquer the 19th Star System of the Empire."

Ji Xiuyun frowned. It was rare for him to show his emotions. "Nonsense!"

Marshal Kevin's current physical condition was not suitable for frontlines, let alone conquering new territories.

No one knew better than Ji Xiuyun, who had experienced it once, about how fierce the resistance would be when conquering a galaxy.

"The Free Army in the 18th Star System hasn't been pacified yet. If I go on an expedition, you will have to stay on the Imperial Planet."

Marshal Kevin's sense of war was no worse than Ji Xiuyun's. "The target star system borders the 18th Star System. If you can't stay there to suppress the Free Army, I won't be able to protect my rear."

Ji Xiuyun pursed his lips. "They want you to die."

"They want the people to hate the target star system. That way, you can legitimately send troops in the name of revenge."

Marshal Kevin picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks. He didn't seem to care. "They've already thought about who will take over my position, but … they must be scared now."

Ji Xiuyun saw that his teacher didn't seem to care. His eyebrows gradually relaxed.

"That kid from the research department told me about their recent discussion. Then, someone suspected to be from the military wantonly bought energy crystals in the Imperial Capital's black market. What do you think they'll think?"

Marshal Kevin grinned. "They'll definitely think that when this order is issued, it'll be the time for me to rebel."

"That kid from the research department who secretly leaked the information will definitely be in big trouble."

Marshal Kevin ate happily. He was so happy that he even patted his student's shoulder. "Well done!

You don't need to spend money on sexual apathy anyway. The balance in your salary card should be a mountain, right?

Keep buying!

Don't be scared! "

Ji Xiuyun thought about it. In the end, he didn't tell his teacher that Yue An could be self-sufficient.

After all, Marshal Kevin was a person who handed over his salary card to his wife. He would even act like a spoiled child to his wife when he asked for some pocket money.

To put it simply, although Marshal Kevin's salary and benefits were very high, he still had a subtle hatred for the rich.

If his teacher found out about Yue An's ability to make money, he might sneak in one of these nights and take the Yue An home to freeload off a few days of benefits.

Marshal Kevin had once secretly bought a game and used it to freeload off Ji Xiuyun's biological cabin.

The main reason was that Marshal Kevin was strong and handsome. His wife was very insecure and didn't let Marshal Kevin play virtual reality games. She was afraid that one day he would be cuckolded.

Marshal Kevin doted on his wife. If he really wanted to play, he would sneak over to Ji Xiuyun's house and freeload off her.

Ji Xiuyun had also seen Marshal Kevin's virtual image before. He was a sloppy homeless uncle with an unshaven beard. When he stood in the virtual community, he was basically the type that would make all the girls within a ten-meter radius walk around him.

Marshal Kevin was still chatting with Ji Xiuyun about their daily lives.

Ji Xiuyun would occasionally respond, but he didn't say anything. He really didn't have anything to say, but listening to his teacher and his wife talk about their sweet and sour daily lives was quite heartwarming.

Yue An was very interested in the glass of milk that Marshal Kevin hadn't drunk yet. He wanted to know the difference between milk in this era and milk on Earth.

Although cats were lactose intolerant, he was a monster!

Yue An wagged his tail and looked at the two humans at the dining table. While Ji Xiuyun and Marshal Kevin were talking, he sneakily stuck his head out of the glass while no one was paying attention to him.

Just as his little head was about to touch the sides of the glass, the glass of milk was taken away by a big hand.

Yue An raised his head and saw Marshal Kevin's smiling handsome face.

"Do you want to drink this?" he asked.

Yue An coquettishly said, "Meow!"

Ji Xiuyun looked at his teacher and then at Yue An. He stood up and walked into the kitchen.

No one was paying attention to him.

Marshal Kevin was looking at Yue An, and Yue An was looking at the milk.

Marshal Kevin said, "Then let me massage your paw."

Yue An stretched out his left front paw.

Marshal Kevin massaged it with satisfaction and then said, "I want to massage your right side too."

Yue An retracted his left front paw and stretched out his right front paw.

Marshal Kevin massaged it again and said, "Let me massage your belly again."

Yue An turned his head and howled at Ji Xiuyun, who had just come out of the kitchen with a glass of milk, "Meow!

Meow!!! "

Now I believe that you were taught by this person!!

You have the same bad taste!!!

How shameless!!!
