Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 779: Section 774 - Going Home

```

If Chen Fei had to find a way to liquidate on his own, the probability of getting swindled was nearly one hundred percent; there was no suspense about it.

It's as unjust as not robbing a child flaunting gold in the marketplace.

For Hanna Gagel, though it wasn't her area of expertise, she still had some connections. Even if she didn't look for a channel, she could sell the items on her own gradually and fetch a good price; it would just take some time.

"You keep these for now, and give me a list later."

Hanna Gagel was in no hurry to take over. She had other work to attend to after leaving the Aircrew Base with Chen Fei.

"A list? No problem, please check!"

Chen Fei snapped his fingers; the list was ready, "Adam" sent it in a second!

No sooner had he finished speaking, Hanna BOSS's mobile phone rang with the notification sound of a new email in her inbox.

Hanna Gagel glanced at her phone screen.

"That was fast!"

"Hehehehe..."

The Big Cat was hugging the crystal boxes and wouldn't let go, chuckling foolishly.

Finding what you were looking for without any effort is as satisfying as finding what you weren't looking for after a long, hard search.

When it noticed that Chen Fei and Hanna BOSS had agreed on a plan for handling the "soil specialties" brought back from Cangqiong Star and both turned their gaze towards it, it hurriedly said, "Rookie, I'll give you a good price, you won't lose out."

Chen Fei never thought about bargaining, and directly nodded in agreement, "Okay! You decide."

Although he didn't know the market price of Magical Beast Crystal Cores, he was aware of one thing based on economic principles: the prices on Blue Star were definitely higher than on Cangqiong Star.

So, the price Er Lang gave, no matter what, would not make Chen Fei lose out.

Glancing at the small transport plane that was opening its rear hatch, Hanna Gagel checked the time and said, "Er Lang, you go back to the Aircrew Base first. I'll transfer with Rookie."

"Okay, boss! Have a good one!"

The Golden-Eyed Azure-Hearted Civet wagged its tail vigorously; although it was a Big Cat, it acted like a little dog.

"See you later!"

Chen Fei reached out to pat the cat's head and then followed Hanna BOSS towards the terminal building.

The Big Cat was taken aback, and its fur immediately bristled, as it protested loudly with its whiskers flaring out, "Hey, I'm not a pet; don't touch my head!"

Why is this guy's hand so itchy!

The Pure Light Sparrow Xiao Jiu was using its small head to nudge Chen Fei's neck, chirping persistently, as if it wanted its head petted too.

Chen Fei raised his hand and lightly poked Xiao Jiu's crest with his index finger, eliciting a series of happy chirps.

"It's a pity that there aren't many Pure Light Sparrows on Blue Star."

Hearing Xiao Jiu's chirping, Hanna Gagel turned her head to look.

Indeed! frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Without the ability to summon thousands of Pure Light Sparrows, Xiao Jiu's threat level was even lower than other Magical Beasts of the same rank and couldn't compare to its capabilities on Cangqiong Star.

If Pure Light Sparrows on Blue Star had the power to instantly kill Giant Dragons, the Sovereigns probably wouldn't have approved Xiao Jiu's immigration paperwork so quickly and easily, even though it was registered locally and enjoyed all the rights of a citizen as a Magical Beast.

"Blue Star doesn't need Pure Light Sparrows as saviors."

Chen Fei didn't care and continued to play with Xiao Jiu.

Such a cute Little Bird, it's fine just being a happy pet.

At the terminal building, Hanna Gagel and Chen Fei went their separate ways; the latter returned to his homeland, and the former flew elsewhere to discuss business related to the Flesh Mushroom industry and Jiu Defense Company.

-

Ding-dong! Ding-dong!

The doorbell had only rung twice when the front door was immediately pushed open, and a voice both surprised and delighted rushed towards Chen Fei.

"Second Brother, you're back!"

"Eh? Xiao Meng, you're here too!"

Chen Fei was baffled; he hadn't expected to see Little Sister Chen as soon as he got home.

Shouldn't this sister, who's always setting him up, be in school studying?

Xiao Jiu hopped onto the back of Chen Fei's neck, probably a bit scared of Little Sister Chen's Bird Caressing Divine Skill.

"It's winter break!"

Chen Meng immediately pouted, visibly upset in capital letters.

This damn brother had actually forgotten that his sister in college had winter and summer vacations.

Just as Chen Fei was about to say something, a strange face appeared behind Little Sister Chen, sheepishly greeting him.

"Um, hello, I am..."

"Bro, he's Liu Mingquan, my boyfriend! Xiao Liu, this is my second brother, Chen Fei, an airplane mechanic who used to study economics; can you believe he switched from economics to fixing planes? The professional leap is so huge!"

Well, there you go! Little Sister Chen actually brought her boyfriend home.

Just wait till I break this guy's legs!!!

"Hello, I'm Liu Mingquan. You can call me Xiao Liu."

For some reason, the young man behind Chen Meng, upon seeing Chen Fei's reaction, looked as though a mouse had seen a cat, instinctively shrinking a little.

"Xiao Liu, right? I..."

"Second Brother, you're back!"

```

Just at that moment, Father appeared in Chen Fei's line of sight, effectively stifling the words he was about to blurt out.

With a twitch of his mouth and a helpless tone, he said, "Dad, I'm back!"

Chen Meng gripped Chen Fei's arm and dragged him into the house, her eyes shifty as she asked, "Bro, did you bring back any... gifts?"

"Want an Element Annihilation Bomb? One could level the entire neighborhood, pollution-free, environmentally friendly, and with no residue," he teased.

Chen Fei glared at his cheeky little sister, who had the audacity to bring her boyfriend home without any prior application, clearly showing no regard for him as her Second Brother. She deserved to be strung up and dangled from the streetlight at the entrance of the neighborhood as a warning to others.

There were several boxes of local specialties outside the door, genuine Cangqiong Star local specialties without any contraband. They were just some drinks, snacks, jewelry, and ornaments – small things whose total value didn't even reach ten thousand Star Yuan, so there was no fear of attracting any covetous eyes.

"What kind of outrageous talk is that?"

Chen Meng pounded on her elder brother, but when she caught sight of a small ball of feathers trying to hide, her eyes lit up, and she shrieked with alarm and delight.

"Xiao Jiu!~"

"Jiu!~"

The Little Bird almost unleashed a laser in fright, which would have blown the head off this impudent girl on the spot.

Lord Pure Light Sparrow, who had once led his troop to defeat a Giant Dragon in mere seconds, was now being chased frantically around the house by a mere human girl. The chaotic scene was only ended by the intervention of their mother.

If the commotion had continued, even the house might have been at risk of coming apart.

Chen Fei thought it best to bring Yilan along next time he returned home, for a "lock the doors and release the dragon" surprise for his stinky little sister.

"You're such an adult, and you're still playing with birds!"

Mother was so displeased she was nearly ready to brandish a feather duster; it was unclear whether she was scolding her daughter, or using the situation to indirectly lecture her son.

The boyfriend Chen Meng had brought home, Liu Mingquan, was all smiles throughout, not daring to interfere. While his girlfriend and her Second Uncle were horsing around, he quietly moved all those boxes of local specialties into the house by himself.

Second Uncle's fearsome reputation, no, his prestige had been well known since their school days. Now, nobody dared to bully Chen Meng, fearful that her brother might barge into the Ivory Tower with that giant armored vehicle (Mobile Base Vehicle) and shoot them in the head with its cannon—was this even real life?

"Hehe! Xiao Jiu is so cute!~"

Little Sister Chen got her way in the end, capturing the pitiful Xiao Jiu in her hands, who looked utterly disheartened.

Stripping away the magic, it was just an ordinary bird with no means of resistance, probably couldn't even beat a pigeon.

"Be careful with it!"

Chen Fei was on guard, ready to rescue the Little Bird from his sister at any moment.

"Second Brother, did you bring these back? Don't go to all that trouble next time!"

Father Chen Haishang looked over the wooden crates that had been moved inside, considering that just getting them from the airport to their apartment building must have been quite the hassle.

"It's no trouble, really easy," Chen Fei said, waving his hand dismissively. A few boxes of local specialties were nothing to him.

Others might think he was boasting about his strength, but they wouldn't guess that he was actually showing off the "Spatial Branding" on the back of his hand.

"What's inside them?"

Chen Meng, holding the resigned Xiao Jiu, came up to the crates and turned to Liu Mingquan, "Xiao Liu, let's open the boxes and have a look."

"Is that okay?"

Liu Mingquan hesitated, looking towards Chen Fei with a timid reaction, much like the Xiao Jiu in Little Sister Chen's hands.

"No worries, they're just some food, drinks, and usable items, nothing special," Chen Fei assured with a nod.

"Oh!"

Liu Mingquan then boldly began to open the crates one by one.

"All this wine?"

Father Chen Hai looked at the bottles of wine, a smile spreading across his face with delight.

"Sausages? Ham? Salted meat? Aren't all these available at the supermarket?"

Mother Yu Xiaoyi, busy preparing dinner in the kitchen, sneaked a peek out and saw no point in the hassle of bringing all that home, possibly even overspending and wasting money.

"Ah? These are local specialties from Cangqiong Star, made with Magical Beast Meat, they have different nutritional values, very nourishing. And the alcohol, I had to scour two continents and comb through the streets and alleys to find these top-quality liquors, it really wasn't easy."

Chen Fei hadn't brought out the complete set of liquor gift packs; one reason being that there was too much and the house lacked storage space, and the other being to prevent attracting unwanted attention. If a few old lushes got wind of it, they might pester incessantly, and his old man might not even get a sip before it all ended up in strangers' bellies. So, picking out twenty or thirty bottles was plenty.

"Cangqiong Star's local specialties? Second Brother, you went to Cangqiong Star?"

Chen Meng, her eyes sparkling, looked at Chen Fei. Ordinary people might never have the opportunity to visit another civilized planet in their lifetime, and here her Second Brother had quietly made the trip. The company's benefits must be something else!

"Just an off-planet errand! Pretty normal!"

Chen Fei downplayed it, then looked around and asked, "Where's Eldest Brother?"

He hadn't seen Eldest Brother, his sister-in-law, or their baby since he'd been home for half the day.

Holding a bottle of wine and clearly smitten with it, Father Chen Hai turned to explain, "The baby had a fever, so your Eldest Brother and sister-in-law took him to the hospital. They should be back by now."

He then glanced towards Little Sister Chen's hands.

"Xiao Jiu seems to be capable of Light-based Spells, could it use the 'Light Healing Technique' on the baby?"

"That's easy!"

Chen Fei readily agreed.

The "Light Healing Technique" was practically child's play for a Light-element Magical Beast of the Human Order Sixth Rank.

"Jiu!"
