Starting from the Planetary Governor-Chapter 761 - 423, My Hero
Chapter 761: Chapter 423, My Hero Chapter 761: Chapter 423, My Hero Yelisia felt somewhat nervous, for she didn’t know exactly what Gu Hang was going to do to her.
But since she was able to cooperate tacitly and complete something as serious as assisting Gu Hang in a coup, getting rid of her immediate superior without hardly any prior coordination with Gu Hang, it was even less of an issue to give him this bit of trust.
She didn’t think Gu Hang would do anything harmful to her.
She was just quite unaccustomed to such intimate contact with the opposite sex, giving her a very strange feeling.
Her body tensed up, but she obediently sat still, allowing Gu Hang to proceed.
She could feel the warmth of Gu Hang’s fingers as they moved down the sides of her forehead, to her cheeks, then to the back of her neck.
There was a slight tingling sensation that traveled from her mind through her body, even penetrating her soul.
This tingling didn’t excite her, but it was extremely comfortable, making her relax.
Before she realized it, she fell asleep.
When she slowly woke up, she was lying on a lounge chair in a resting room, covered with a thin blanket.
First, she checked herself and found that she was wearing a set of comfortable and soft pajamas.
Her face turned slightly red, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Gu Hang!
But then she thought, it probably wasn’t him.
The image of her fiancé in her memory didn’t appear as someone who would do such a thing.
I must not misunderstand him.
As she was thinking this, she heard the door open.
Gu Hang, dressed casually, walked in holding a gold-rimmed porcelain plate.
“You’re awake,” said Gu Hang, his smile gentle and warming.
“Mm…
How long have I slept?”
“Not long, two hours.”
“Oh…
How did I fall asleep?”
“It was because of me,” Gu Hang said as he sat next to her and placed the porcelain plate on a small table beside the lounge chair.
The plate was filled with neatly cut fruit.

Gu Hang fed Yelisia a piece with an exquisite fork.
“It’s very fresh,” Yelisia commented, “I haven’t had this in a long time.”
On a starship, this was undoubtedly a luxury.
Perhaps at the beginning of their departure, the Quintet’s kitchen had stored some for the senior officers, but after so many years, certainly, nothing was left.
Later, with the tense war situation, precious transportation couldn’t be used for such items.
Eating the fruit, Yelisia asked Gu Hang, “What…
did you do to me just now?”
“I saw you were very tired, mainly spiritually, so I thought of a little method using spiritual energy to help you ease it a bit.”
“Indeed, I feel much more relaxed in body and spirit.
Is this also the power of spiritual energy?
I’ve never heard of it before.”
That’s because the most powerful spiritual energy user you’ve ever met, is right in front of you.
But Gu Hang didn’t voice this thought, instead just smiling gently: “Seeing you had fallen asleep, I brought you here and had one of my female secretaries help you change your clothes.”
This finally answered the question that Yelisia had been too embarrassed to ask.
It made her breathe a sigh of relief, but why did she still feel a hint of disappointment?
One rocked back and forth on a reclining chair, the other sat beside, slicing fruit and chatting idly about various topics.
The topics of conversation were quite diverse.
First, they talked about the health of family members, especially old Fufana’s condition.
Gu Hang sighed, not bothering to hide anything, and revealed that Fufana’s health was declining more and more.
Without the conditions to undergo another life-extension surgery, he likely wouldn’t survive another operation, and the Tianma Star Sector didn’t have the capability or means to conduct it.
Now, there was no way to get to Jindi Star either.
Yelisia still seemed somewhat sad.
Of all her family, it was this grandfather, a generation removed, with whom she shared the closest bond.
This wasn’t a topic that brought happiness or relaxation.
Afterwards, Gu Hang naturally shifted the conversation to describe the changes in Flying Wing Star, and even the whole Tianma Star Sector, over the years.
The changes were indeed significant.
Even on Flying Wing Star, the transformation was substantial.
In the years since Yelisia left the Tianma Star Sector, it was the time when Gu Hang’s power expanded from Rage Owl Star and eventually dominated the entire star sector.
Most of those changes were naturally brought about by Gu Hang.
“I truly couldn’t have imagined,” Yelisia exclaimed, “just a few years ago, when you boarded my ship from the starport on Flying Wing Star, you only brought one person with you to that notorious, hopeless world of Rage Owl Star.”
“In just these few years, you’ve reached this point.”
Gu Hang said with a smile, “Your help was indispensable in all this.”
“Of course!” Yelisia puffed out her chest proudly, “I certainly won’t forget my own contributions.
Your initial capital all came from swindling on my starship.
Those mech servants, my Navy Marine Corps, and even the present commander-in-chief of your Alliance Land Forces, was once a Marine Corps officer on my ship!”
Gu Hang laughed heartily, “Hahaha!
You’re absolutely right!
You’re my angel investor!”
“My investment turned out to be hugely successful,” Yelisia reflected, “Who could have thought it?
To be honest, at first, I didn’t have much faith in what you could achieve.
Starting from scratch, penniless in a wasteland.
But now, just fourteen years later, you’ve become the sole ruler of a whole star sector, with sixty billion people submitting to you, commanding an immense army and a fleet that obscures the sky…”
“Not to mention back then, even when we had just got engaged, you were already on the rise, but the biggest label on you was still the Young Family Head of the Gu Clan.
How could I dare to imagine that, in a few years’ time, my fiancé would become the biggest and only ruler of the entire star sector?”
Gu Hang teased Yelisia, “Don’t you like it?”
Yelisia’s eyes even seemed somewhat misty, “Of course not, even though I’ve always hoped to take up the family’s mantle and become the finest naval admiral.
But…
haven’t I also dreamed that my future husband would be a hero of legends?”
“Do you think I’ve met that standard?” he asked.
Yelisia smiled slyly, “What do you think?”
Gu Hang didn’t answer, instead he just lowered his head and continued to peel the fruit.
But he could feel the breath of Yelisia on his cheek:
“You certainly are, my hero.”
!
The tender moments between Gu Hang and Yelisia were but a fleeting episode in the cold expanse of the universe.
Brutal war was the eternal theme.
They couldn’t rest for long, as there were too many things yet to do.
Having crushed the main fleet of the Green Skins on Steel Wing Star, they immediately had to allocate forces to address the issue of Green Skins’ invasions in the Eagle Horse Star District, and in the neighbouring Mist Horse Star District.
Inside the Eagle Horse Star Sector, Green Skins’ ships should no longer exist.
If there were any, they were small raiding groups, which could cause trouble, but would not hinder the grand scheme.
The Dragonhawk and Rage Bear Star Realm Army Corps would remain on Steel Wing Star as defense forces.
Meanwhile, half of the eighty million Alliance Army would disperse to various planets in the Eagle Horse Star Sector to deal with the Green Skins’ ground invasions.
