Vice Sect Hierarch Edrig saw Fanluo God Emperor smile, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief before speaking.

"Lord God Emperor, what should we do next?"

"You don’t need to worry about that, I have a brilliant idea that will ensure the Federation has no place to rest in peace!"

Fanluo God Emperor revealed a sinister smile.

"Yes!"

Vice Sect Hierarch Edrig and the others exchanged glances, somewhat skeptical as they responded.

----------------------------------------------

Inside the cold, advanced hospital room.

Su Ming lay on the bed, connected to various medical device lines, with an IV drip on the back of his hand.

Tick~

The medical equipment occasionally emitted notification sounds.

At this moment, Dr. Blakes and Long Bai stood beside the bed, looking at the comatose Su Ming.

"How is Su Ming’s condition?"

Long Bai asked coldly.

"Very bad. If General Sigurd hadn’t taken most of the damage, along with the biological cockpit cushioning some of the impact, and the protection from the Dragon Scale Armor, he would probably be dead by now."

Dr. Blakes responded coldly.

"I don’t care what method you use, bring him back."

Long Bai said icily.

"Rest assured, I won’t let him die."

Dr. Blakes replied indifferently.

After hearing Dr. Blakes’ words, Long Bai did not say anything else, just stood quietly at the bedside, watching the unconscious Su Ming.

Time passed slowly, it was unclear how long had gone by, and Su Ming remained in a coma without any sign of waking.

The entire room had only Long Bai left.

Long Bai slowly reached out and removed her mask, revealing a stunningly beautiful face. Then she approached the bed and sat down, looking at the unconscious Su Ming, gently caressing his face.

Long Bai’s expression became complex. To be honest, she hadn’t expected that a woman like her, who greatly admired strength, would ever find love.

After all, love is a very mysterious thing and comes in many forms. Some start with money, some with companionship, some with fate, and hers with strength.

As someone of high status, her own strength was extraordinary. If someone didn’t possess strength that surpassed hers as a stepping stone, she wouldn’t even glance at them.

Over the years, she had seen countless talented geniuses, but none moved her heart until she met Su Ming during the three-school league.

He went from an unknown figure to gradually showcasing his talent and strength, impressing her time and time again.

Later, he even recklessly dared to follow and tease her. But this series of bold actions gradually attracted her.

Long Bai herself hadn’t expected that eventually, they would reach this point. She felt fortunate and cherished it greatly.

To her, this kind of emotion was incredibly precious, perhaps also making up for something missing from her childhood.

Knock knock~

Just then, a knock on the door was heard.

"Come in."

Long Bai put her mask back on and spoke coldly.

The door was pushed open, and Yun Rou walked in, speaking respectfully.

"Lord Long Bai."

"What’s the matter?"

Long Bai replied indifferently.

"Everyone from the Council is gathered and waiting for you."

Yun Rou reported to Long Bai.

Upon hearing this, Long Bai glanced at the unconscious Su Ming and spoke to Dr. Blakes.

"Su Ming is in your hands now."

"Alright."

Dr. Blakes nodded slightly in response.

Long Bai then left with Yun Rou, and as they exited the hospital room and reached the corridor.

Rhein and others looked at Long Bai nervously and asked.

"Council Chairman, what’s Su Ming’s condition?"

"Not in any immediate life-threatening danger."

Long Bai replied calmly, then left directly with Yun Rou.

Upon hearing Long Bai’s words, Rhein and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

...

Federation Administrative Building·Dawn Hall.

Dragon Dust, Farren, Alicia, Mokduo and others were all seated.

The entire council hall was very lively, everyone discussing the recent defense battle.

"It was really close this time!"

"We almost collapsed. If Isabella Prophet hadn’t stepped in, the three-line defense might have crumbled!"

"That’s right, it was really timely."

"But even so, I heard the casualties were very severe."

"Yes, I heard General Sigurd sacrificed."

"No way?"

"Really, I heard it was to save Admiral Su Ming."

"What about Admiral Su Ming?"

"Not sure, heard he’s in critical condition."

"No wonder Lord Long Bai was enraged and personally stepped in!"

"But speaking of which, Lord Long Bai’s strength is really formidable!"

"And that new Star Destroyer is also incredibly powerful, it absorbed the Mechanical Clan Leader’s attack and reversed it to destroy their force field barrier!"

"It really is super strong, but when was this Star Destroyer built? I’ve never heard of it before."

"I don’t know either."

...

As the crowd continued to discuss.

At that moment, the tightly closed doors of the council hall slowly opened.

The originally noisy conference hall instantly quieted down, with everyone’s eyes focused on the door.

Long Bai entered under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Instantly, all the council members stood up, saluting and greeting Long Bai.

"Council Chairman!"

Long Bai nodded slightly, then walked through the main aisle, stepping onto the council podium.

She glanced at everyone present and spoke calmly.

"Sit, we now begin today’s meeting. The main purpose of this meeting is to discuss post-war operations and the impending crisis. If anyone has any opinions, feel free to express them."

Upon hearing Long Bai’s words, everyone began to discuss.

"Although we repelled Apocalypse, Dark Star, Chilami, and the Mechanical Clan this time, our situation is not optimistic. The troops suffered heavy casualties!"
