CHAPTER 704: CHAPTER 708: INTERSTELLAR HEARTTHROB (27)
Su Xun could only console herself this way, there being no other solution.
Feeling anxious and confused, she waited another two days, during which even Connie couldn’t help but repeatedly ask about the situation.
"It’s been five days; even crawling here should be possible by now." As Su Xun approached the staircase, she overheard her foster father, who had rarely been home, losing his temper.
It seemed her own involvement was being discussed.
"Get that useless girl over here, I want to ask her myself."
Now, Su Xun couldn’t hide it anymore. The communicator she was clutching in her palm was being squeezed so tightly that it was embedding into her flesh, causing a burning pain.
But now, she could focus on nothing but how to explain the situation to her foster father.
She was afraid of her foster father, whom she had come to know halfway through her life.
She had known from the beginning that her foster father didn’t really like her.
The act of adopting her as his foster daughter had been a calculation of sorts between them, and she had just happened to take advantage of the situation.
With hesitation, Su Xun voluntarily came downstairs first, lowered her head, moved her lips several times, and finally managed to say with difficulty, "I... I don’t know when she will arrive...."
Connie was also somewhat resentful and spoke in an unfriendly tone, "Then contact him now and see when he will arrive at Main Star."
Su Xun’s voice became even quieter, "The communicator... might be broken... I can’t get through...."
Fortunately, inside the villa, because Su Xun’s foster father was in a rage, neither the servants nor Connie, the mistress, dared to make a sound, which left the house in such quiet that otherwise, Su Xun’s words might not have been clear.
"What, your communicator is broken?" The foster father raised his voice sharply, startling Su Xun, who quickly explained, "No, not mine, I guess it’s the other party’s communicator that’s broken."
"I can’t get in touch with her...."
Taking the communicator, which still bore the moisture from her palm, from Su Xun’s hand, the foster father glanced at it and scoffed coldly, "Both of you are fools, it’s clear the other party doesn’t want to contact you."
"I actually believed you had the ability to contact Su Li...."
What happened on Su Xun’s side was naturally unknown to Su Li, but she could roughly guess.
From the moment she crushed the communicator, one could imagine that the life of the original owner, this cherished daughter, would not be easy.
As for occupying someone else’s body and treating their daughter this way, would there be any guilt?
The answer is absolutely not....
Do feelings of guilt have anything to do with her? What are those?
-----------
However, following this incident, a rumor surfaced on the Star Network that Su Li, the so-called male idol, was actually female.
This topic continued to gain momentum.
It peaked under the claims made in person by Su Li’s daughter.
Many obsessed fans on the Star Network had their hearts shattered.
Especially the girls; it was unbearable for them. They thought they could have children with their male idol, who turned out to be a girl just like them....
Get familiar with the feeling of dreams being dashed.
But male fans were thrilled; an idol turning from male to female didn’t make much difference to them.
Either way, the commotion caused was not as disruptive as Su Xun had anticipated.
Indeed, the news had been leaked by Su Xun herself, who else could it have been?
She thought this way, perhaps her mother would finally contact her in a fit of rage, even to scold her.
But there was none, none at all.
For the interstellar public, a hero is a hero. Could a change in gender erase the fact that she had saved so many lives?
If Su Li was indeed a woman, it would only make her more admirable.
She accomplished what even men could not.
At the same time, a short video was posted on the Star Network.
Everyone who accessed the Star Network could see it.
In the vast starry sky, a Clown Robot was particularly eye-catching with a pile of Mecha debris behind it.
Then a clear voice was recorded, "Stop wasting time, hurry back, we need to keep moving."
At the end of the video, several large characters displayed: Coordinates Death Corner.
Only those who had once luckily survived the Black Pirates could recognize this familiar pattern.
As expected, the next day remains left behind by the interstellar outlaw group, Snowflake Robbery Group, were found at Death Corner.
The news that the Snowflake Robbery Group, ranked third on the wanted list, was wiped out overnight spread throughout the universe.
This was somewhat terrifying. It’s one thing to single-handedly eliminate a group of Black Pirates—a feat many in the universe capable of extraordinary things could achieve.
But to annihilate an entire Snowflake Robbery Group was utterly unfathomable.
They were not disorganized like the Black Pirates; their strategist was a General who had defected from the Empire.
The Snowflake Robbery Group trained by military standards.
The thought of one person overthrowing a pseudo-army alone was terrifying.
But the reality was, it had happened.
Some insisted it was an absurd exaggeration—such undue praise for someone named Su Li was unwarranted.
However, these voices of dissent stopped abruptly when the Empire’s Armed Forces sent a team to investigate.
The Empire announced that General Bu Lu, one of their own who had defected three years ago, was confirmed dead.
His trademark Red Eagle Mecha wreckage was also found at Death Corner.
This statement from the Empire not only confirmed the authenticity of the previous video but also proved that Su Li was indeed terrifyingly powerful.
His Martial Arts skills must have exceeded Level 5.
The Prince of the Empire was universally recognized as a Level 5 powerhouse, yet he had admitted that if he were to take on the Snowflake Robbery Group alone like Su Li, achieving it unscathed, he could not.
With the risk of grave injuries, perhaps he could manage, but it would be highly difficult.
The terror of the Snowflake Robbery Group did not lie in how many Martial Arts experts they had, but in their exceptional team coordination.
Each member was capable of taking on ten foes, and their combined terrifying combat power was imaginable.
In short, Su Li had firmly made a name for herself throughout the interstellar realm with this act.
After eliminating two groups of bandits twice in a row, some speculated whether she harbored a deep hatred for bandits, targeting only them.
To this, Su Li only wanted to say, everyone was overthinking it.
If she said she didn’t do it intentionally, that she could turn a blind eye even as they killed and plundered, as long as it didn’t affect her directly, she wondered if anyone would believe that.
And the person who accidentally boosted Su Li’s reputation, Su Xun, from a mere civilian to the pinnacle, didn’t await her mother’s interrogation; instead, she faced an unexpected person.
Her biological father, Gao Lin.
Gao Lin, an active senior officer of the Armed Forces.
