Old Master Jiang whispered, "I have never been loyal to the Zhao family. I am just a businessman, and I only do things related to profit.
Firstly, although we haven't directly joined the Bao Family and Cui Family's plan, as long as they succeed, we can completely reap the benefits, after all, our Jiang family controls 70% of the Owl Dragon Star System's only interstellar trade channels!
Secondly, don't forget the Zhao Family's eldest miss.
You wouldn't be so naive as to think that because that eldest miss hasn't returned all these years, she's truly severed ties with the Zhao family, would you?
Once that eldest miss learns of the Bao Family and Cui Family's rebellion, with her capabilities, she can completely deal with the Bao Family and Cui Family.
If we openly stand with them, we will only become the Zhao Family's eldest miss's target.
Therefore, the best choice for us is to wait and see. Smart people always leave themselves a way out."
After listening to Old Master Jiang's lengthy discourse, everyone suddenly understood.
"I heard Shasha say earlier that Zhao Chen, that good-for-nothing, defeated a viscount's son with an assembled Starship in the academy?" Old Master Jiang looked at Jiang Shasha.
Jiang Shasha nodded. The first thing she did when she returned from the academy was to [N O V E L I G H T] tell her father and grandfather about this matter.
"Just one Starship, what kind of waves can it possibly make?
I heard that the interstellar pirates the Bao Family and Cui Family hired this time are professionals! They are all former professional interstellar military personnel!" Father Jiang said with a sneer, as if he had already seen the scene of that good-for-nothing Baron Zhao Chen being killed.
"Speaking of which, in previous academy holidays, the Zhao Family's siblings would usually return right after you, Shasha. Why haven't they returned yet?
Could it be that they discovered the Bao Family and Cui Family's operation plan?" Mother Jiang muttered from the side.
Jiang Shasha said, "According to the information we received, that guy Zhao Chen and his sister went to the Arctic Fox Star System first.
The message that came back said that his Blizzard Zero needed repairs at the Arctic Fox Starport.
But they will still return this holiday, it's just that no specific time was given."
Just then, a man who looked like a butler behind Old Master Jiang walked to the dining table and whispered a few words into Old Master Jiang's ear.
Old Master Jiang looked at his family: "The latest news is that our Baron has already departed from Arctic Fox Starport and is returning to the Owl Dragon Star System.
He is expected to arrive in the Owl Dragon Star System in two weeks, and after a brief stay, he will prepare to rush back to the North Star Starship Military Academy."
"This way, the people from the Bao Family and Cui Family can finally breathe a sigh of relief," Father Jiang said excitedly.
Old Master Jiang narrowed his eyes, looking at his impetuous son: "Remember, this time our Jiang family must keep a low profile. No one is allowed to interfere in this matter.
Recall all direct descendants of the Jiang family, so as not to cause trouble for our Jiang family."
"Yes, Father," Father Jiang responded.

Two weeks later, mid-September
Two Starships traversed the boundless intergalactic space.
'Blizzard Zero Starship intelligent system prompt: Blizzard Zero has exited warp travel state, arrived at the designated location; currently in autopilot mode.'
Zhao Chen suddenly opened his eyes. Compared to the previous warp travel, he felt much clearer-headed now.
This should be due to the T1 Super Soldier Serum injection.
The hatch of the hibernation pod opened. Although he had been immersed in the blue liquid before, his clothes had already dried automatically.
He stepped out of the hibernation pod, his legs steady, and his spirits high.
"Cap... Captain..." The Half-Beastman female crew member, who had just woken up beside him, looked at the already awake Captain in surprise, noticing his excellent mental state.
She knew that not long ago, she had seen the Captain's legs tremble right after he woke up.
Under normal circumstances, it would take at least three months to fully adapt to a military hibernation pod.
"Start working," Zhao Chen said with a calm expression. He also began his work at this moment.
With Charlotte absent, Zhao Chen had to do many things himself. He began issuing commands.
"All personnel on the Bridge return to your posts within one minute and check all Starship data.
All personnel on the Starship return to your posts within three minutes and stand by.
Communications department, try to contact the t2 bee queen-class heavy carrier starship.
Starship radar department, scan the surrounding starfield and see if you can find the T2 Queen Bee."
Just as Zhao Chen was giving orders, a video window appeared, showing a communication request from the T2 Queen Bee's Bridge.
Zhao Chen accepted the call.
On the other side was the Bridge view of the t2 bee queen-class heavy carrier starship.
"You've already arrived?" Zhao Chen looked at Charlotte and Zhao Wan'er, who didn't seem like they had just woken up.
Zhao Wan'er said, "We arrived half a day before you."
Charlotte added, "If it weren't to match the speed of the Blizzard Zero, with the t2 bee queen-class heavy carrier starship's four-level warp engine, we could have arrived five days earlier at the fastest." ƒreewebɳovel.com
The Blizzard Zero uses a three-level warp engine.
The t2 bee queen-class heavy carrier starship, on the other hand, uses a four-level warp engine, which naturally results in a significant speed difference during warp travel.
As Charlotte said, if the t2 bee queen-class heavy carrier starship hadn't set its speed to accompany the Blizzard Zero, it would have arrived in the Owl Dragon Star System much earlier.
"I've contacted Jiang Hong. She's very anxious about our rash actions and repeatedly emphasized that we leave as soon as possible!" Zhao Wan'er mentioned.
Zhao Chen asked, "Did Jiang Hong say any other useful information?"
Zhao Wan'er transmitted a star map.
"According to the intelligence Jiang Hong obtained, the Bao Family and Cui Family plan to launch an attack on us at this location."
Zhao Chen looked at this star map of the Owl Dragon Star System.
The attack location was an unavoidable path to the planet where the Zhao Family resides in the Owl Dragon Star System, and it was precisely calculated to be where warp travel would prematurely end.
"The Bao Family and Cui Family have planned well. As soon as their attack plan on us succeeds, they will immediately attack our home planet and eliminate all descendants of the Zhao family!" Zhao Wan'er said indignantly, "Our Zhao family has truly raised a bunch of ingrates!"
Zhao Wan'er continued, "Jiang Hong also gave me information on the Starship models of the interstellar pirate fleet, as well as the Starship models of the Cui Family and Bao Family's private fleets."
"Transmit both pieces of information to me," Zhao Chen said.
As the saying goes, know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated.
Even though Zhao Chen already had full confidence, he could never let his guard down.
