Chapter 327: The Sacred Covenant
Lin Fu was taken aback and gazed deeply at him, not knowing what to say; warmth filled her heart.
"As for Theresa... she’s a bit more troublesome, after all, she is from the Royal Family, and no one from the Mecklenburg Family should be underestimated," Fu Xing mused. "It’s a very unique family, and what makes them unique is not just their beautiful pink hair, but also..."
Fu Xing’s gaze unintentionally swept over Lin Fu’s jet-black, soft and shiny hair that now sported a few strands of pink, and his words suddenly halted.
His pupils contracted slightly, but he quickly concealed it and nonchalantly moved on, continuing, "The Seven Guardian Families and the Mecklenburg Family are tied by a sacred contract, a tradition enduring two thousand years that’s also the foundation for the Galaxy Empire’s continued existence."
In the interstellar era of three thousand years, many political bodies have risen and fallen, large and small, many of which have perished, but only the Galaxy Empire has the longest and most ancient history, and wealth solid as a rock.
And this is precisely because of the Mecklenburg Family and the Seven Guardian Families.
Do not be fooled by the current undercurrents within the Military Department and the Prime Minister’s Cabinet, or the fierce struggle for the position of Heir; these events are nothing new for the Galaxy Empire, which has undergone countless similar challenges.
"A contract?"
Lin Fu grew even more curious, "What kind of contract can last two thousand years?"
"Now is not the time to tell you. By the way, did you know your schoolmate Celia has inherited a dukedom?" Fu Xing easily shifted the topic.
"I know, she’s the Empire’s youngest Duchess, above tens of thousands as one of the Great Nobles, an Imperial Honorary Admiral, and the title holder of Guardian of the Grihuade Star System. Right now, Celia is the most enviable girl in all of the interstellar."
Compared to her, Theresa falls far short.
