Long live the Father of Night!
Upon seeing his father again, the Night Haunter was filled with emotion.
This was the first time he had hugged his father since his Resurrection.
"Okay, Konrad, if you keep hugging me like this, I'm going to suffocate."
The Night Haunter nervously released Han Mingxuan, while Han Mingxuan looked at him with satisfaction.
"Excellent, very good."
Seeing the smile in his father's eyes, the Night Haunter knew that this time, his father was happy only because of his personal change.
"Father, I..."
"No need to say more, how many people have you gathered so far?"
"I've already gathered 10,000 people. Give me time, and I can gather even more."
"It must have been tough, right?" Han Mingxuan asked.
The Eighth Legion on this timeline and the Eighth Legion on the 30K timeline are two different concepts.
The Night Haunter was able to gather 10,000 people in such a short time shows that he put in a lot of effort.
"It's no trouble at all, Father. As Legion Primarch, this is what I should do."
"Then bring everyone with you and come with me. I've already prepared a place for you and your Legion to Settlement."
"Also, once you get to that Planet, there will be a batch of Recruits waiting for your training."
"Those Recruits are all soldiers I modified using the Gene-seed from your Resurrection; you can use them without worry."
"I thought you would just use his," said the Night Haunter.
"You are you, and he is he. Although you two are very similar, your personalities are different, so your Legions are also different."
"Let's go, pack your bags, and leave this place with me."
"Good!"
The Night Haunter led Han Mingxuan to the forefront of the army.
He then left Han Mingxuan on the high platform at the forefront of the army, while he himself stood among the troops.
"Long live the Father of Night! We have come for you!"
The first shout came from the Night Haunter.
He did this to make it clear to everyone in the Legion that his father was the real person in charge within the Legion.
Similarly, he wanted to let these veterans who had returned to the Legion know that the Father of Night held an extremely high position within the Legion.
Seeing the Night Haunter's reaction, the others were stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted.
"Long live the Father of Night! We have come for you!"
Han Mingxuan was somewhat at a loss for words in the face of this scene.
He never expected to hear such slogans one day, as if he were the commander of the Eighth Legion.
But you know what, it's not bad when you listen to it once in a while.
"My Scions, this is my father, the one who brought salvation to my soul and destiny, the greatest man in the entire Imperium, the Father of Night!"
"Long live the Father of Night! We have come for you!"
These veterans, upon their return, were able to sense the joy in their fathers' hearts due to the Gene-seed connection.
They also understood the place this Father of Night held in the hearts of their Gene-Father.
Moreover, the fact that the Father of Night was able to Flesh traverse the Warp already proves his strength.
"Alright, let's go!"
At Han Mingxuan's command, the entire fleet of the Eighth Legion set sail.
They will pass through the Eye of Terror to enter the Realspace, and then go to the Necrons prepared for Han Mingxuan in this timeline.
The name of that galaxy is still vacant. This time, Han Mingxuan wants the Night Haunter to name the galaxy.
Han Mingxuan's appearance put the Night Haunter in a good mood, which made the atmosphere in the entire Eighth Legion very lively.
"Not bad, Konrad, you've got a knack for managing the Legion."
Putting everything else aside, the former members of the Eighth Legion are now in very good military bearing.
"After all, I learned a lot from him, Father."
During the 30k period, the Night Haunter also learned from Curze when he was in charge of the Legion.
He had seen Curze's excellence and didn't want to become mediocre.
"That's good. What do you plan to do with the rest of the Space Marines?"
The Night Haunter knew that Han Mingxuan was asking about the members of the Eighth Legion who had not yet been summoned back.
"Follow the Evernight Code."
Han Mingxuan nodded without saying much. It was a good thing that the Night Haunter was willing to take the initiative to govern the Legion, and he would not interfere further.
"Father, what are your plans for the future?"
"I plan to Resurrection the Great Angel first."
Boom!
Han Mingxuan's casual remark silenced the entire Flagship command center.
The Night Haunter himself was alright, after all, he knew more or less about the power his father possessed.
But the Sevatar, Sahar, and Corvus of this timeline simply couldn't believe it.
"Resurrection the Great Angel?" Corvus asked.
"Yes, what the Imperium needs most right now is high-end combat power. Because of Konrad's past issues, if he were to publicize them extensively in the Realspace, it could easily cause unrest."
"Corvus, you can't carry this alone, so I thought I'd Resurrection the Great Angel first. On the surface, the return of you two brothers would be a shot in the arm for the Imperium of Man."
"The next few decades will be chaotic, and we must be prepared."
"But, sir, the Great Angel's soul and Essence have long been shattered."
"I know that, Corvus. So before coming here, I had already collected the Great Angel's soul and Essence. Now, once we return to the genetic Laboratory on the Luna, the rest will be left to time."
Upon hearing Han Mingxuan say that he had retrieved the Great Angel's soul and Essence, Corvus was utterly shocked.
This means that Han Mingxuan single-handedly took on the Four Gods.
Those four Chaos Gods in the Warp are no pushovers; they won't hand over Sanguinius' soul and Essence unless we defeat them.
"Don't look at me like that, Corvus. The Imperium of Man is going through a turbulent time right now, and strong, decisive execution is often necessary."
"By the way, once we arrive at our new Settlement, do you have any constructive suggestions regarding the Raven Guards?"
Upon hearing Han Mingxuan's question, the Lord of Ravens fell silent.
During the Battle of Isstvan, he failed to protect his own Scions.
The entire Legion's structure was almost completely wiped out.
He later wanted to quickly restore the Legion's organization, but the Gene-seed was contaminated by Alpharius with the Chaos virus, and his Scions eventually mutated into monsters. He had no choice but to execute his own Scions.
Furthermore, due to the later splitting of the 19th XIX Legion Legion, which had very few personnel, not many sub-corps were formed.
Nowadays, the Lord of Ravens's real reason for not wanting to rebuild the Legion is less that he doesn't want to, and more that he's afraid to face his Scions.
"Sir, I don't know what to do."
Han Mingxuan nodded. "It's good that you don't know. If you don't know, it means your heart is empty right now. Just find something to fill your heart."
"For example, rebuild your Legion, just like during the Great Crusade, brick by brick, starting all over again."
"But..."
"No buts, Corvus. Let's get moving."
The Night Haunter walked over and patted Corvus on the shoulder.
"You can't go wrong by listening to your father."
Corvus finally nodded, which was considered an agreement.
"What about those Chaos faction members who betrayed the Imperium?"
"Don't worry about that, someone will handle them later," Han Mingxuan said with a smile.
It is foreseeable that once the Battle of Cadia ends, a passage between the two worlds will be established.
Then it will be a battle between Primarch.
Perhaps after completely burning the Black King, we can forge a Sword of Promised Glory for Lorgar to use.
"Oh, right, slow down your sailing speed a bit, I suddenly remembered I still have something to do."
"Father, do you need my help?"
"No need to bother, I can handle it myself."
Han Mingxuan only remembered this when they were about to return to the Realspace.
On Slaanesh's side, although he obtained a portion of the Great Angel's soul and Essence, Slaanesh didn't give him the person he wanted.
Since we're leaving anyway, let's take the person back with us first.
Once we get back, we'll throw Fabius into the Luna Laboratory and have the Emperor's Adeptus Custodes keep an eye on him.
