Chapter 270: Chapter 268: Returned!
…
Dark Continent.
Ming Linyuan had come from the insect-free Dawn City to Demon Emperor City.
Holding a long whip that burned with a purple-red flame, wherever he went all the insect creatures turned to ashes.
The remnant God Rank aura in Dawn City indicated that Qing Linghuan had been to the Dark Continent.
Following the God Rank aura, he made his way to Demon Emperor City.
Qing Linghuan had disappeared here.
And there was a huge crack that connected to the Beast World Continent, with a continuous stream of the Insect Clan pouring into it.
A middle-aged man who bore a resemblance to Ming Linyuan suddenly appeared beside him.
Although Ming Linyuan did not like this Father Beast, his birth was not something he could choose, with one crack of his whip he killed two more Insect Beasts, “…You’re not dead yet?”
The Demon Emperor looked at his son, baring his teeth in a smile, his handsome and mature face oddly charming, “Where is Manman?”
“She’s with her mother.”
“Mm, you should go too, don’t come to the Dark Continent for a while. Once this crack is sealed, the entire Dark Continent will be sealed as well.”
“How come I didn’t know you had this ability?”
“What are you saying! A senior that the Father Emperor knew from before will help to seal the Dark Continent.”
“A senior?”
Ming Linyuan suddenly had a bad premonition.
…
Zi Qi changed into his armor, ready to head to the battlefield of the Primordial Beast Forest.
The Insect Clan had begun to spread in the Primordial Beast Forest and, although there was some distance from the Imperial Capital, if they were not stopped in the Beast Forest, it would be too late once they entered the towns.
This alien species, hermaphroditic, possessed extremely strong reproductive capability. Once they invaded a body, it would become a nest for their reproduction, turning into puppets of the Insect Clan.
And their evolutionary speed was extremely fast, now capable of disguising themselves as Beastmen. If it wasn’t for their distinct foul smell, one couldn’t tell any difference between their appearance and that of real Beastmen just by looking.
However, given the Insect Clan’s rate of evolution, it wouldn’t be long before they could conceal their smell as well, making it increasingly difficult to exterminate them. By then, it would be a disaster for the entire continent.
Just as he was about to leave, the empty egg nest suddenly revealed four little ones.
Of course, in the middle was Xiaoba; the other three were Manman, Xiaohao, and a particularly beautiful golden-haired green-eyed little girl.
Four children, two of whom were notoriously mischievous.
One was exceedingly honest, not moving at all. The last, an unfamiliar little girl, was obviously someone’s offspring.
Zi Qi’s originally grave and somber heart lightened a lot at the sight of them, and he asked with a smile, “You guys, have you been returned?”
“That’s not it, Uncle Zi,” Manman immediately retorted, “I didn’t even want to fight with Brother Xiaohao, he insisted on challenging me, which upset mother, and she sent us all back here.”
“Heh.” Zi Qi laughed out loud, looking at Xiaohao, “Is that so?”
“It was the two of them who plotted it, one used Wood Element Secret Technique to trap me, and the other set me on fire. I got upset and accidentally used Purple Gold Lightning.”
“I see.” In short, they had caused too much trouble and were dumped back here.
“Are you Uncle Zi?” Xiaoshi stood nicely, opening her pretty green eyes wide.
The prettier the cub, the more dangerous it usually was.
Zi Qi looked at Xiaoshi and nodded, “Mm. I know your Father Beast, Frans Saint.”
“Uncle Zi knows my Father Emperor? Can you take me to see Father Emperor?”
“No.”
“Oh. Then can I go back to my mother’s side?”
“Should be possible,” Zi Qi looked at the biggest Xiaohao, “Did your mother send any letters?”
Xiaohao glanced at Manman, “It’s with her.”
Manman was stunned for a moment before realizing, “Mom told me to give this to Uncle Zi.” She took out Sally’s letter from the Little Storage Bag.
Upon opening the letter, there were details of the three children’s talents and Secret Techniques, apart from Xiaoba. It especially noted, combat power—100%!
She told Zi Qi to make full use of the three of them, especially Xiaoshi!
This little girl’s Secret Technique involved peace and the supreme Life Rules, but she was the one who loved to stir up trouble the most. Additionally, her Divine Angel Summoning Spell could summon fighting divine angels. Although they weren’t real Divine Angels descending, they could still exert a tenth of the Angel Power.
After reviewing the details of their talents and Secret Techniques, Sally entrusted Zi Qi to throw these three children into the battlefield to fight the Insect Beasts. In three days, about when their vitality would be depleted, at noon, she would summon them back.
This was Sally’s decision after checking the detailed information of their talents and Secret Techniques.
Especially the Angel Power, as Xiaomei observed from the Insect Beast data, it was very effective against the Insect Clan.
“Do you guys want to go with Uncle Zi to the battlefield to kill bugs?” Zi Qi asked the three little ones. As for Xiaoba, he was the best behaved.
“Yes, yes, yes,” Manman immediately raised her wings.
Xiaohao also said, “I can too.”
Xiaoshi blinked her big eyes, “How many bugs do we have to kill? Is there a reward?”
“Any number is fine, as for the reward… how about I plead for you? Your mother being angry is quite scary.”
“Deal!” Xiaoshi agreed as well.
Zi Qi extended his hand.
Xiaoshi took a step closer to him.
Zi Qi picked her up, with Xiaoba also in his arms, “Let’s go, let’s go kill some bugs.”
Xiaoshi sniffed the scent on Zi Qi, “You smell nice.”
“…Do I?” Zi Qi smiled and said.
“You smell like Father Emperor. Mother said Father Emperor smells like roses. What about Uncle Zi?”
“That, you’ll have to ask your mother.”
Zi Qi recalled the intimate moments he had with Sally, when she always seemed infatuated with his scent… Hmm! This woman wasn’t only libidinous but also fond of fragrances.
After Sally had soaked all the cubs in Spiritual Liquid and bathed them, making them smell nice, she put them to bed, “Alright, naptime has arrived.”
Putao, “Mom, when will Manman and the others come back?”
Sally touched his soft, silky back fur and replied warmly, “Their vitality was a bit too strong, and they destroyed a lot of Spiritual Material on the island. So, Mom had Xiaoba take them back to help your Father Emperor and the others with work. They’ll be back in three days.”
“Mom, Xiaoqi also wants to go back,” Xiaoqi slowly crawled onto Sally’s shoulder.
Sally tilted her head and nuzzled her, “Our Xiaoqi is the best behaved, there’s no need for you to go back to work.”
“Mom, I want to go back to Grandpa and my uncles,” Frans said softly.
Sally went over and touched his head, “The Beast Emperor in the Northern Region said that the Rat Clan and Rabbit Clan have taken refuge in the Northern Region. As for your grandfather and them, he’ll have the Silver Emperor help look for them, Frans, don’t worry.”
Frans nodded and burrowed into the covers.
Yona helped pull the covers up for him and said to Sally, “Mom, you should rest too.”
“Alright, I’ll listen to my dear daughter,” Sally said with a smile.
Then, holding Xiaoqi, she lay down as well.
Xiaoqi whispered close to Sally, “Mom just lied…”
Sally stroked her round ears, “Xiaoqi, sometimes even if you see through something, you can’t reveal it, understand?”
The three little ones need to hold onto hope in their hearts.
Even though, in the future, they would come to know the truth. 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓅𝓊𝓫.𝒸ℴ𝓶
But by then, they would have grown up, and their ability to endure would be stronger.
