Chapter 421: Chapter 420: Yes, But Not Many

Xiong Lie asked Qu Tong about Cheng Feng’s situation again and, after learning Cheng Feng was as busy as a dog on Capital Star, he patted his chest in relief.

Although his mind wasn’t as quick as theirs, he won at understanding the nature of a desperate dog.

"I just knew a dog can’t change its..." Xiong Lie smacked his mouth, unable to speak recklessly in front of his sister-in-law, "I just knew Cheng Feng was up to no good."

Qu Tong’s spirits were lifted by Xiong Lie’s liveliness, and she followed suit, her eyes smiling as well.

They soon arrived at Xiong Lie’s residence.

Xiong Lie emerged from his house, hands behind his back, trying to hide something as he stumbled over his words, not daring to face Qu Tong:

"Sister-in-law, I really did take care of it just like Boss instructed, but..."

"It’s okay, show me." Qu Tong was unconcerned, as long as it hadn’t died.

Xiong Lie slowly brought out the potted plant from behind his back. It was still a small cluster, but the brightly colored little tomatoes were gone, leaving only green leaves and stems.

Xiong Lie immediately swore with his hand raised, "I promise I didn’t eat any, the fruits just fell off on their own."

"That’s normal, no need to be so nervous."

Qu Tong was slightly amused. Seeing Xiong Lie’s cautious demeanor, she could imagine Si Yuting seriously instructing his subordinates to help take care of the plant with a stern face.

Scratching his head awkwardly, Xiong Lie said, "But it bore fruit all year round before, only recently did it start to look like this."

That’s because she used to come by often.

However, she didn’t need to demonstrate that in person.

After expressing her thanks to Xiong Lie, Qu Tong took the little tomato plant and went back.

Although the farm now had a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, this little tomato plant still held special significance for her—it was somewhat like a token of affection she had given to Si Yuting.

When she entered the military base’s lobby, she happened upon the Skywolf Legion soldiers resting. They greeted her one by one with enthusiasm.

The way they looked at her could be described as thirsting for knowledge.

A few soldiers in teams were bold enough to step forward, asking for her guidance. Qu Tong smiled and shook her head, "Maybe next time, it’s not convenient today."

The soldiers under Si Yuting were good, straightforward but polite. When she mentioned next time, they were not only undiscouraged but also looking forward to it.

Qu Tong looked toward the center of the hall, where the soldiers were gathered most densely.

Although the Spirit Power Stabilizing Potion was now almost sufficiently supplied, especially to the First Legion, it seemed they were still accustomed to sitting under the ivy for no particular reason – the calluses formed at the base of the ivy were proof of that.

Qu Tong walked over and sat down under the tree. The soldiers sitting there immediately stood up to offer her a spot.

"Thank you." After saying her thanks politely, Qu Tong touched the ivy and left after a few seconds.

Behind her, a soldier asked curiously, "What was Madam doing?"

"I have no idea?" another soldier replied.

"Haven’t you been on the Star Network? Madam is the new national idol. She wiped out the Interstellar second-ranked Star Thieves Gang all by herself, and she’s also a very rare Senior Alchemist."

"No wonder the Grand Marshal’s elixirs seem to cost nothing, heh heh, lets us bask in the glory too."

"The Grand Marshal was the former national male idol, and Madam is the current national female idol, a perfect match."

"Ah? Wasn’t the Grand Marshal always firmly on the male idol throne? Why are there former and current titles now?"

"It’s because the Grand Marshal’s Fertility Value plummeted, and he got married. So, this year, the female fans cast their votes for Captain Casa from next door."

"From this perspective, our Madam is tough and strong."

"No, what does that have to do with what Madam was just doing?" the soldier who asked first raised his hand.

"I didn’t say it’s related. But isn’t it exciting?"

"Exciting."

The topic was successfully derailed~

In the evening, the report came out, and for the sake of rigor, it was divided into electronic and paper versions.

However, Si Yuting’s medical checkup was managed by Jiang Zhou, who directly transmitted it to Jiang Zhou’s Light Brain.

Qu Tong took the still-warm paper report and seeing the "Fertility Value" in the basic information section, her mouth twitched.

High-end instruments are indeed different, precise enough to keep the decimal places.

Qu Tong handed the report to Si Yuting, "There is some, but not much."

Si Yuting looked at the report, which read "Fertility Value: 1.0," and a myriad of complex emotions surged through him.

A Fertility Value below 30 makes natural conception difficult, with many opting for in vitro artificial insemination. For a Fertility Value under 10, not to mention natural conception, even in vitro methods are unlikely to succeed.

A single-digit Fertility Value is almost equivalent to none.

Yet, he had a naturally conceived child.

How fortunate he was.

How rare the situation.

Looking at the rest of the report, his spiritual power was still top-tier SSS+, but his rebellion value, which used to teeter on the edge of the red line, had fallen to 12.

Qu Tong turned and asked, "Can the rebellion value be reduced to zero?"

Seeing that small number, she felt somewhat dissatisfied and wanted to completely eliminate it.

"Yes, it can, but very few people manage to achieve it," Si Yuting said.

Ever since Ali entered his Spirit Sea, along with occasional treatments thereafter, he had not suffered from headaches, restlessness, or insomnia. On the contrary, using his special ability had become more intuitive for him.

He had reason to believe that in time, his rebellion value would reach 0.

With this confirmation, Qu Tong decided to carry out the procedure later.

With her around, how could her husband have a rebellion value?

A figure of zero was much more pleasing to look at.

Though the Fertility Value wasn’t zero, the rebellion value could be.

"Should we tell the Emperor and Empress about this?" asked Qu Tong.

"It’s up to you."

Qu Tong touched her chin, pondering, "If we tell the Emperor and Empress, would they urge us to go for artificial insemination?"

"Then let’s wait," he said.

Given how much the Emperor and Empress valued his Fertility Value, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, they would not give up.

Although they were open-minded and would not force him, it’s possible they would feel sorry for them and inadvertently put unnecessary pressure on Ali.

It wasn’t long before Jiang Zhou’s call came through.

Qu Tong didn’t listen; she guessed the content and found a quiet place to contact Hu Qing on Capital Star.

Since Hu Qing and the others had been handy, she didn’t plan to replace them. They also didn’t need to follow her all the time and could undertake missions with others.

Hu Qing recounted everything that had occurred in the past half-month that Qu Tong wanted to know, sparing no detail.

Lin Yumo’s takeover of Moyun Group went smoothly, and he even visited the head of the Lin Family in prison. Reportedly, the family head was devastated after Lin Yumo left, and his attitude toward Lin Jiahai turned exceptionally indifferent.

The news about her being Jun Li had already spread on the Star Network. No wonder her inbox was bursting at the seams with several 99+ messages.

Lately, the Lan Family has shown signs of recovery. The elixirs from the Military Department were delivered on time and in full, and the official online store continued to stock them. However, the quantity of High-grade Spirit Power Stabilizing Potions had been significantly reduced, while the amount of mid-grade elixirs had increased several-fold.

Giving up on the High-grade Spirit Power Stabilizing Potion to concentrate on the promising mid-grade elixirs was indeed a solution.

Yet, it seems Prince Casa didn’t offer much help, or else they wouldn’t have to send people to try to salvage the deals that Lin Mo had snatched away.

The empire was on the brink of falling; this was merely the final revelry.
