Tong Sui pulled his consciousness out of the mental sea and realized that his combat suit was already soaked, the sweat-drenched hair sticking to his burning face. The series of training just moments ago had consumed a significant amount of his physical strength. However, instead of feeling fatigued, Tong Sui experienced an exhilarating rush.
The mechanics who had witnessed everything from a close distance were practically fainting from excitement.
“Finally, we get to see the blizzard demonstrating its true power! Wuwuwu, I could cry!”
“I thought I would never see this in my lifetime.”
It was at this moment that Xie Feibai arrived. He observed the expensive mech’s every move with awe. As soon as the mech stopped, the cockpit opened. A familiar silver figure stepped out. Xie Feibai’s pupils trembled.
“…General?”
Then he saw the figure turn, revealing a face he completely did not recognize. Xie Feibai was stunned. Yet, in that instant, he seemed to have truly seen the familiar general. Another figure emerged alongside, which was also quite familiar.
“Your Highness Tong Sui.”
Xie Feibai greeted respectfully. After the pleasantries, his gaze shifted back to Bai Xingluo beside Tong Sui, “…Who is this?”
“He is my attendant,” Tong Sui said with a slight cough. “Let’s step aside and discuss the matters regarding those medications.”
“Alright.” Xie Feibai turned. “Please follow me.”
They found a conference room. Xie Feibai closed the door, and as he turned, he heard Tong Sui say, “Sorry, there were too many bugs just now, I tricked you.”
Xie Feibai was taken aback. Then he saw the unfamiliar attendant beside Tong Sui remove a disguise from his face, revealing a cold and stern countenance.
“General!”
Xie Feibai rushed forward, almost disbelieving his eyes.
“Is it really you?”
Bai Xingluo replied, “You’ve worked hard these days.”
Xie Feibai stood at attention and saluted sharply, “General, I represent all members of the Legion in welcoming you back!”
He knew the general wouldn’t just abandon them!
In an instant, Xie Feibai found his source of confidence, and the fatigue from the bugs vanished, leaving his face flushed with excitement.
“Yes, but please don’t announce it just yet,” Bai Xingluo said. “My current position is a bit sensitive.”
“Understood!” Xie Feibai eagerly responded, seemingly ready to follow any order from Bai Xingluo without question.
Once the initial excitement died down, Xie Feibai remembered to ask, “Have you been with His Highness Tong Sui all this time? How is your mental energy storm now?”
The mech required a lot of mental energy, and Xie Feibai felt some concern.
Bai Xingluo glanced at Tong Sui beside him, “With the alpha present, my mental energy is stable and even stronger than before.”
“That’s fantastic! That’s fantastic!”
Xie Feibai could hardly wait to share this good news and eagerly looked at Tong Sui, saying, “Your Highness Tong Sui, if it weren’t for you, the general might have lost control long ago! You are truly important to him; I’ve never seen the general treat any alpha this well!”
He genuinely felt happy for the general finding his favored alpha.
Bai Xingluo stood in front of Xie Feibai, cutting off his heated gaze, and coolly said, “Alright, let’s sit down and discuss the current situation.”
“Sure.”
Xie Feibai opened a virtual projection, displaying the current status of various planets, efficiently reporting all the details.
This was a tacit understanding built over years of working side by side.
Tong Sui merely tried to keep up, doing his best to understand things he had not encountered in times of peace.
The report continued until nightfall.
Bai Xingluo finally gave a sound of acknowledgment, providing several plans for Xie Feibai to adjust the Legion’s strategic deployment, advising not to concentrate all forces on the Empirical Star.
“Don’t worry, I’m here; it won’t fall.” Bai Xingluo stated, “Other star systems need to be considered as well; they are all lives.”
“Understood! I will relay the orders now.” Xie Feibai opened his light brain and issued commands.
Simultaneously, numerous messages popped up in his communications toolbar.
Xie Feibai glanced over.
“General, those special effect medicines have arrived and been distributed to the injured military females. They all asked me to convey their gratitude to Your Highness Tong Sui.”
By the time they had nearly finished their discussion, Tong Sui could no longer hold on and was now slumped over on the table, eyes closed as he slept.
He looked utterly exhausted.
His long eyelashes resembled a small fan, casting a shallow shadow beneath his eyes, gently rising and falling with his breath.
The sudden increase in physical demand placed a significant burden on an alpha.
Tong Sui’s ability to endure for this long surprised Xie Feibai.
Bai Xingluo lowered his voice, “Let’s call it a day; I’ll take him up to rest.”
Xie Feibai gave an “OK” hand gesture.
He watched as Bai Xingluo leaned in to whisper something to Tong Sui’s ear, then expertly picked him up.
In a daze, Tong Sui murmured, “I’m not sleepy; I can hold on a little longer.”
Bai Xingluo returned the disguise to his face, carrying Tong Sui out, softly coaxing, “That’s enough now.”
As they walked away, Xie Feibai rubbed the back of his neck.
He felt like he had just consumed a great deal of dog food.
Seeing the general in such a state was clear evidence that he was completely smitten.
It made Xie Feibai feel an urge to experience love himself. Too bad he hadn’t encountered many normal alphas.
He decided to refocus and serve the Empire well.
