Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive-Chapter 123: Following Ye Xuan Even in Hell

Seeing his granddaughter shifting uncomfortably in her seat, Grandpa Chu cleared his throat to get everyone’s attention and decided to change the topic.

Their reason for talking to Ye Xuan about his relationship with Chu Miao was to understand his thoughts about their family’s treasure, not to interrogate or intimidate him.

Since he had already explained himself, Chu Zheng saw no need to continue such an uncomfortable topic.

"Xiao Xuan, from the information I got, the government is no longer working to serve the people, but the people in power are doing everything they can to amass power for themselves and have control over the bases they build.

Most aim to have enough power to create their own bases, but their reason for such actions is not to help the people but to exploit them.

From what I heard, they seem to be recruiting superpower users and showing no care for the old, weak, and sick.

If this continues, humanity will collapse at the hands of humans before the apocalypse finishes us off."

Ye Xuan listened attentively and indeed, this situation was the same as what his team had found out. However, the situation seems to be worse than he expected.

After hearing Grandpa Chu’s words, he knew that the Chu family must have made a decision. Their family was known as a family of generals even during the era before the country gained independence.

Their focus had always been to protect the country and its citizens. He knew that they would not sit and cross their arms watching the people suffer. They will definitely take action and he was ready to join them with everything he had.

Just like the Chu family, he was taught from a young age that he had a duty to protect the country and its people. That’s why he joined the military and even after retirement, never refused a mission that involved the protection of innocent citizens.

He still carried the same conviction even as the world descended into chaos.

"What are your plans, Grandpa?" Ye Xuan asked. This time, he didn’t add ’Chu’ at the end, and even he didn’t realize that he had changed the way he addressed the old man.

The others noticed this difference but kept quiet. It was a sign that he had accepted them as his family and that was good as it showed that Chu Miao was important to him.

"We plan to start our own base, but it will not be like the other bases. It will be more like a sect." Grandpa Chu answered a bit vaguely because their family had yet to discuss the details.

Thus, he couldn’t tell Ye Xuan more about the prospective base they had in mind.

"A sect like the ones mentioned in history books that nurtured cultivators?" Ye Xuan asked when he heard what Grandpa Chu said.

"Yes, something similar. But unlike in the history books where the sects solely focused on nurturing cultivators and other ancient skills, ours will have many elements of the modern world to help preserve the progress and milestones humanity has made." Chu Miao said.

She was the only person in the room who had a clear picture of what their sect would entail.

"Do you need me to do anything to help?" Ye Xuan immediately volunteered his help without asking any questions.

Seeing him so supportive of Chu Miao without any reservations, the Chu family members were pleased and applauded themselves for scoring such an outstanding son-in-law.

Grandpa Chu already wanted to call his friend Grandpa Li and gloat.

"For now, the most important thing is to collect supplies. No matter what it is, even if people think it’s useless, we should collect them.

Nothing is useless in a world where resources will become scarce as time goes by.

The more supplies we have in the future, the easier it will be to support more people." Grandpa Chu said to Ye Xuan.

"We also wanted to know if you are interested in joining us so that we can start the sect after we have enough supplies and make concrete plans." He added and everyone turned to look at Ye Xuan.

Chu Miao especially had a hopeful look on her face. She hoped that she could work together with Ye Xuan while fulfilling her purpose as told in the prophecy.

The fight of her second life had begun, and fighting side-by-side with her significant other would give her more motivation and make her life easier.

"Of course, I will join you. Wherever Miao is, I will be there to support and protect her. If she wants to start a sect, then I will help her achieve her goal." Ye Xuan promised without skipping a heartbeat.

It was obvious that he was ready to back Chu Miao up in whatever she did. The whole family was happy about this and decided to give him more information.

But before that, they had another question, "What about your brothers-in-arms? Will they have an opinion or oppose your decision?"

Father Chu asked this because even though they were happy to have Ye Xuan, such a capable major general in the military in their camp, they didn’t want to put him in a difficult situation.

"Don’t worry about my brothers. They will follow the path I take without questions. As long as I tell them that it’s my decision, they will support and follow me." Ye Xuan reassured the family.

He was not bragging, it was true that his brothers would follow him to hell without questions if that’s where he chose to go. That is the kind of trust and loyalty he inspired in them. So, there was no need to worry about them.

The Chu family members were also happy about this. Having someone like Ye Xuan, who commanded such loyalty and respect from his teammates, was an advantage for them.

Grandpa Chu had been a general for many years and even he had not achieved such a thing. Except for Butler Cheng who had vowed to follow him even in death, he knew that no one else would do that apart from his family.

"Okay then. Do you have any objection to others joining us as the founding members? General Li and his family want to join us." Grandpa Chu explained to Ye Xuan.
