Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 377: Earth Protection Restriction

Beijing.

In a corner of some park.

Gu Dadong was leisurely holding his grandson, Gu Jinnian, while playing chess with several retired old buddies.

After a few games, they noticed that one tough old guy, who usually couldn’t be beaten, hadn’t won against Gu Dadong today.

Gu Dadong grinned, "Old Mo, aren’t you going a bit easy on me?"

Old Mo, sitting across from him, smiled, "I’m not, it’s just that Commander Gu, you’re getting craftier with age."

"You old fox," Gu Dadong replied, playfully chiding his group of old friends.

Old Mo rearranged the chess pieces and hesitated before asking, "I’ve heard that three Offerants went to other planets to open their Cave Mansions and got their own Star System Territories for development?"

This was no secret among the senior levels of the compound.

The word was that it came from the Ye and He families.

Gu Dadong didn’t deny it, nodding his head.

"That..." Old Mo and the group of elders behind him eagerly looked at Gu Dadong, "Commander Gu, haven’t you and Miss Yu thought about having your own piece of Star System Territory like the three-dimensional Offerants?"

"Hasn’t Elder Gu prepared something for you two?"

Gu Dadong said, "No rush, my wife and I want to spend more time with our grandson, we’ll leave after he grows up."

Gu Feng would definitely have prepared a plan for his parents to advance their realm.

But that plan had been put on hold.

Because they both wanted to watch their grandson grow up before leaving to live in their own star system.

Hearing Gu Dadong’s words, Old Mo and a few others exchanged glances, their eyes brimming with anticipation of something.

It might look like they could still pull strings in the compound based on their seniority to influence jobs for the next generation, but who could predict the future?

Even the Ye and He families, as original shareholders, chose to strategize early in light of the hardships. What about them?

The global Cultivation resources were highly competitive, and Earth was more like a beginner’s village.

If anyone wanted to leave this world and explore the vast universe for the meaning of eternal life, they had to break through in order to go.

But to break through, one had to invest capital and excel in the Arena to stand out. Yet, they heard that the Ye and He families with their own star system resources could mine more of those resources and give them back to their Earth family.

So, they thought, why not seek allegiance with a big shot who owns a Star System Territory? Even if they went to other planets to work and help manage them, it was still better than waiting for death on Earth.

If you could go to other star systems, at the very least you could get Cultivation materials that aren’t available on Earth for your descendants, which is undoubtedly better than staying as a native Earthling.

The Earth of the future will surely be compared by the power of one’s background; people will have to consider which star system your ancestors are from, and they might give you face, rather than deal an unfriendly hand to your Earth family.

Besides, who was Gu Dadong?

He was the father of Gu Feng, the Great Expert who founded the Cultivation system!

With such a background, who in the entire range of star systems would dare not give him face in the future?

Gu Dadong actually knew what these people were thinking, and he was well aware that if he and his wife had their own star system in the future, they would surely need people to manage it.

"It’s still early. When I leave, I will inform you all," said Gu Dadong.

Faces of Old Mo and the others barely concealed their joy.

"It’s fine, having your word on this is enough, Commander Gu. We can wait."

After all, the longevity limit for ordinary people on Earth had reached 150 years. It would only be a matter of a decade or so until the young lad Gu Jinnian came of age. They could afford to wait.

Meanwhile.

At the private restaurant owned by Guo Yunfan in Shencheng City, Lin Yue had called her family over for a home-style feast.

Her third uncle’s family, her eldest uncle’s family, as well as her mother Liu Yan were all present.

Lin Yue, naturally, took the prime seat at the center of the table.

The real reason she had gathered everyone was to give them some gifts.

Since advancing to the Nascent Soul level, Lin Yue had been personally taught various alchemy techniques by Gu Feng, having been influenced by his close guidance. Now, she could use materials mined from the safety zone outside planets within the star systems to concoct high-level pills.

"I have something to say," Lin Yue suddenly announced.

All the members of the Lin Family instinctively turned to look at her, their chopsticks momentarily pausing and setting down.

"You all keep eating," Lin Yue gestured for them to not be so tense and serious, then continued, "From now on, each of you can collect one mid-grade Spirit Stone from me every month."

Expressions of surprise and delight emerged on the faces of the Lin Family.

"Sis, I read in a book that Spirit Stones are different from pills, they’re like nutrients for cultivators, right?" Lin Qin asked curiously.

Ever since the Arena introduced exchangeable materials and items, the whole world had begun to explore the relevant knowledge.

"Right, Spirit Stones are condensed from natural Primordial Power and can replenish a cultivator’s spiritual sea directly. Pills are just aids for breaking through bottlenecks. For instance, after I took a pill and became a Nascent Soul, I had the level, but my spiritual sea was actually depleted. I need more Spirit Stones to fill it to stabilize it," Lin Yue explained.

With that said, Lin Yue handed out a Spirit Stone to each family member on the spot.

"Thank you, sis."

"Thank you, Little Yue."

After warmly receiving their Spirit Stones, the Lin Family members were so enamored with the stones that they didn’t rush to absorb them, instead placing them into a box.

"One mid-grade Spirit Stone is worth the effect of pills that you would spend millions on," said Lin Yue. "Your current level is low, and your bodies would likely need a month to fully absorb a single Spirit Stone. Don’t rush this process. Later, if you encounter a bottleneck, you can come to me to get a Breakthrough Pill."

Lin Langsheng bravely asked, "Little Yue, we’ve heard from Beijing that both the Ye and He families have Offerants who went to territories outside the planets, right?"

"Yes," Lin Yue nodded. "In the future, any of you who can break through to the Nascent Soul Level will also get that."

The Lin Family’s eyes lit up at once: "Does this mean that anyone who breaks through to the Nascent Soul Level will get it?"

Lin Yue confirmed with a nod, "Right, any cultivator who breaks through to the Nascent Soul Level will be forcibly exiled from this world. As compensation, every Nascent Soul that breaks through can claim a star system as their personal Cave Mansion Domain."

Third Uncle Lin Zhenyun’s wife blurted out, "Won’t we eventually run out of star systems to distribute?"

Lin Yue gave her third aunt a look, "There are over two hundred billion units of star systems just in the Galaxy alone. Earth currently doesn’t even have eight billion people. A third can be excluded for not having a Spirit Root, and not just anyone can cultivate to the Nascent Soul Level."

Lin Qin was curious, "Why do we need to separate the Nascent Soul experts?"

Lin Yue candidly shared with her family, "The space structure of Earth simply can’t withstand the antics of Nascent Soul Level practitioners."

Pei Li asked, "Big sis, if everyone starts to develop out in outer space, will the population of Earth start to decrease?"

"How could that be possible," Lin Yue explained. "Do you think everyone can adapt to the environment of the universe? Let me put it this way, even those Nascent Soul Experts who leave Earth, their wives have to return to Earth to give birth, because babies cannot survive in outer space at all. They must grow up on Earth and increase their level before they can leave to join their domain headquarters."

"So, Earth remains the birthplace of civilization and must be protected," continued Lin Yue. "Just imagine, if in the future two major families start fighting, they will inevitably bring their battle to Earth to eradicate the source. Without your brother-in-law’s restriction, if Nascent Soul-Level great experts were to come to Earth personally, could Earth withstand that kind of turmoil?"

The crowd suddenly understood.
