Chapter 314: Emperor Argus, the Kind Father
Wu Xingyu had a dark face and glared at a group of people who were vying to introduce his daughter to him with cold, murderous eyes. Then, ignoring his brothers' requests for help, he walked out of the weapons and equipment store.
However, he did not go far. Instead, he found a corner where he could shelter from the snow. Then he took out the communication light computer that could contact the outside world and dialed the number as usual.
I hadn't been able to get through to the Empire before, but today I was lucky and got through on the first call.
Emperor Argus, who was sitting in his study checking the gene bank data and studying how and when to cultivate his fifth son, frowned when he heard the voice, and glanced over there with his captivating silver eyes.
When he saw the name on the communication, his hand trembled and his calm expression immediately changed.
All his calmness and composure were thrown away. Immediately afterwards, his eyebrows twitched on his majestic face, and his big hands hurriedly stuffed the information in his hand under the file next to him.
Finally, he felt something was not right, so he quickly pulled out a book from the pile of documents and placed it in front of him.
Only after doing all this did he breathe a sigh of relief. He clenched his right fist, placed it under his lips, and coughed lightly. He put on a leisurely and dignified expression again, a kind smile on his lips, and then answered the call.
In an instant, the video image of the communication was not affected by any signal and opened with incredible clarity.
Wu Xingyu appeared in front of Emperor Argus wearing a noble black cloak and a cold and expressionless face.
King Argus's eyes lit up and he breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had made preparations in advance, otherwise his son would be so sad if he saw the information in the gene bank.
He pulled himself together, put on a kind face, looked at him eagerly, and asked with concern in his deep voice, "Offrey, Father hasn't heard from you in a long time. Are you doing well on Exile Star?"
As he spoke, his bright silver eyes glanced suspiciously at the background behind Wu Xingyu, and then glanced again.
I was wondering why it was snowing on the Exile Planet?
Logically speaking, the dimension where the Exile Star is located should be in the scorching summer now.
For the sake of his beloved son, Emperor Argus immediately checked all the relevant information about the Exile Star after communicating with his son last time and knowing his son's location. In addition, he and his brother-in-law Mo Xie have maintained contact once a year over the years, so he doesn't have a complete understanding of the situation on the Exile Star, but he still has some understanding.
But the reality of heavy snow was right before their eyes, and even someone as mature and majestic as Emperor Argus was a little dumbfounded.
Wu Xingyu looked at him indifferently with his dark eyes, wondering what was wrong with his father's flattering young wife?
But he didn't delve too much into it, his voice still cold and indifferent, "I'm fine."
This voice brought Emperor Argus back to his senses. His heart and eyes were once again filled with his beloved son, and he disagreed with his statement that he only reported good news and not bad news.
His silver eyes were filled with heartache as he said, "Offrey, don't be polite with Father. Just tell me what you need. Even though you took away most of the national treasury's energy coins, you can't buy anything you want in a place like Exile Star even with energy coins."
Seeing his son pursing his lips and frowning without saying anything, Argus's fatherly heart instantly softened. Fearing his son wouldn't ask, he quickly slammed his hand on the table and said, "How about this? Ciceri just sent a batch of fresh fruits and vegetables to our royal family, including a fruit called durian. Your Majesty smells delicious. How about I charter a spaceship and send it over to you?"
Emperor Argus was very satisfied with his proposal. His son had always had a cold face since he was a child and had no desires except money. However, according to his observation, his son still had a strong appetite.
As an emperor busy with government affairs, although Agus the Great neglected to discipline and accompany his son, he believed that his observation ability was absolutely sharp.
After just a few meals with his son, he realized that his beloved son, like his elder and second brothers, liked to eat meals made with natural ingredients and drank nutrient solution on weekdays. He did not show his love for these meals just to avoid giving his elder and second brothers a chance to find fault with him and harm him.
Emperor Argus saw this and felt pain in his heart. He then worked even harder, secretly developing his own ambitions, thinking that once he eliminated the forces behind his eldest and second sons, his beloved third son would take his place and he could do whatever he wanted, eating and drinking whatever he wanted.
But he never expected that when his plan was just going well, the forces behind his eldest and second sons could not hold back and took action against his beloved son, causing him to mistakenly enter the Exile Star where no one could get out. The path he had paved for his third son was completely ruined, which was really hateful.
So at this moment, Emperor Argus no longer cared about his image as a strict father, and all the love for his son that he had buried in his heart for all these years came out in one breath.
This is why Wu Xingyu was very confused when he saw the eager expression of his father on the other side of the video.
Looking at his father's face, he looked so proud and thought he had done something great.
Wu Xingyu:
He looked up at the weapons and equipment store, and seeing that the person he was waiting for had not come out yet, he frowned and thought silently for a while, and finally made a decision to take his father to appreciate the scenery of the three acres of land he had bought at a high price.
When Emperor Argus saw that his son didn't say anything and was even walking around, he was puzzled. Could it be that he didn't guess his son's thoughts correctly?
Your son doesn’t like meals made with natural ingredients?
Before he could figure it out in his mind and think about whether to change his proposal, Wu Xingyu's cold voice rang out again.
"Father."
"Ah, go ahead and tell me." Emperor Argus quickly adjusted his expression, sat up straight, and looked at his beloved son lovingly to show that he was listening.
"Father, look, this is my land." Wu Xingyu didn't look at his expression, and simply turned the camera of the computer, aiming the screen at the scene inside the first spirit stone shed.
The first spirit stone shed was planted with vegetables, which were grown from seeds he and Yun Qimu got from killing monsters and opening treasure chests.
Look at the row of green and juicy cabbages on the ridges of the fields; the leeks waving in the wind; and the row of big purple eggplants, which will make your eyes pop out.
"This, what is this?" Emperor Argus was so shocked that he was speechless.
He had seen the green vegetables and eggplants grown in the elves' fields, but none of them were as lush and vigorous as those in this field.
Compared with this row of small green vegetables and big eggplants, the vegetables of the elves are like the poor people in the slums, thin and yellow, and the appearance is really not good.
