Chapter 675: Chapter 673: Being at the Beck and Call of Beauty
Sally was a step too late when she noticed many insects flying in from the horizon.
Dense and accompanied by sparks of lightning, all the Insect Beasts cowered on the ground wherever they passed.
Welly teleported next to Sally, “Yanyan, you should revert to your Beast Body first.”
“Xiaomei has taken all the kids back into the System Space, there must be a threat.” Sally took out several amulets from the System Space, each shining with Nine-colored Divine Light.
Each amulet contained the full-force strike of a Divine Monarch-grade, some gifted by Qing Linghuan to Sally, and others from You Hao… among them was a grey amulet.
“This is a Primordial Demon Power Amulet,” Welly said to Sally.
Sally didn’t use that amulet but took out one given to her by Welly instead, “Let’s try the power of your amulet.”
Welly looked at her, “Yanyan, am I the weakest in strength among all your Beast Husbands?”
“No ah, Zulu hits rock bottom.” Sally said without any courtesy, as it was simply a matter of innate talent, plus Zulu himself didn’t mind.
“Zulu’s cooking is unmatched,” Welly replied.
“And you are still good-looking,” Sally teased as she kissed the corner of his lips.
Welly couldn’t help but laugh, “Serving with beauty, love wanes as charm fades.”
Sally raised her hand to touch her face, “Am I already faded in charm now?”
Welly was momentarily stunned, then he lowered his head to kiss her forehead, “No, it is I who serves with charm for Yanyan.”
After a gentle kiss, Welly flew towards the swarm of insects.
Watching his figure, Sally shouted loudly— “Hubby, you’re the best~!”
Welly’s figure paused slightly, then he sped up even faster, with the Heavenly Dragon Locking Chain reappearing in his hands.
The endlessly extending chain swung lightly, and the other end swung massively… Upon touching his chain, the insects began to explode violently.
“They are Blast Worms!” A middle-aged man Sally had rescued exclaimed with a horrified expression: “This is the Blazing Insect King, the Insect Queen’s most valued left arm.”
“What about the right?”
“It’s the Earth Strider Insect Beast.”
After speaking, Sally felt the ground shaking in waves.
Sally said to the middle-aged man, “The right one you mentioned has arrived. Do you know how to pilot an escape ship?”
“Yes! I am the executive officer of the second fleet of the Huanyao Empire, Claireton Geman.” The middle-aged man gave Sally a military salute.
Very standard and brimming with military presence.
Sally took out a small escape ship from the System Space, “My name is Sally Millet, I wish you a safe journey.”
As the ground’s tremors grew more intense, Sally watched the escape ship sail away and flexed her wrists.
[Xiaomei, let’s get started too.] Sally said to Xiaomei.
Xiaomei responded: [Okay!]
The Queen’s left and right arms were indeed no match for the other ten lackeys. Watching the magma erupting from the ground and the surface collapsing and sinking in places, Sally hovered at a low altitude.
With a Barrier protecting her, Sally didn’t feel discomfort and didn’t take action immediately.
She was waiting for that Insect Beast to appear.
Only when the ground had turned completely into a lake of magma did a huge crocodile-like Insect Beast suddenly stand up from the magma and lunge towards Sally.
Sally dodged, her hands producing three ice-blue amulets— “Sea Roar, Ice Dragon’s Fury, Sea God Punishment!”
As Sally recited the name of each amulet, they emitted a dazzling Divine Light.
The sea water churned with raging waves, falling into the lava lake… The water and lava collided violently, boiling the surface of the lava and quickly solidifying it into oddly shaped stones.
The Ice Dragon soared into the sky, breathing icy flames that incinerated the lava into black ash.
Finally, the Sea God Punishment descended from the sky, its divine might tearing at the fabric of space, aiming for the Earth Strider Insect Beast that had just appeared.
The Earth Strider Insect Beast, sensing impending doom, fled into the ground along the lava.
The Sea God Punishment plunged into the lava lake, creating a massive crater!
Sally instinctively closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, the lava lake was gone.
At the bottom of the huge crater, the body of the Earth Strider Insect Beast had turned into charred remains!
“The three amulets Xiaoqi gave are extremely excellent! I must reward her well later,” Sally praised.
“That’s right, all thanks to Xiaomei’s teaching,” Xiaomei insisted, taking credit for herself.
Sally smiled and chided playfully, “Yes, Teacher Xiaomei, you’ve worked hard.”
Seeing that the battle at Sally’s location had ended quickly and she had slain the insect beast, Welly no longer held back and began to emit a thick Demonic Qi.
“A thousand years of cultivation, and you’ve ascended to become the Demon Emperor. Your talent is truly extraordinary,” Sally observed as a gigantic demonic silhouette appeared behind Welly, the symbol of the Demon Emperor.
And after his demonic silhouette appeared, the Blast Worms gradually parted, revealing a monster with a human body and an insect head.
His upper body was naked, muscles covered in black veins bulging, and his legs still retained the form of insect legs.
“You are not from the Huanyao Empire,” he spoke human language.
Welly responded, “We have been entrusted by the Queen of Huanyao to exterminate the Insect Queen and her Twelve Ministers. You are the last of the ministers.”
“Hmph! All twelve of us combined are not as powerful as a single claw of the Mother Empress.”
“Is she really that powerful?”
“Indeed, if you surrender now, I can speak to the Mother Empress about you. Your potential is enormous. Especially you, you could mate with the Mother Empress and produce even more formidable offspring.”
Welly’s face darkened, ready to strike, but then he heard—
“That proposal does sound tempting, dear,” Sally teased Welly, caressing her stomach.
Welly smiled helplessly, “Yanyan, step aside.”
“Alright.” Sally teleported to a distance to watch the battle.
A baby’s cry suddenly sounded, and as a mother, Sally instinctively looked toward it.
It must have been the earthquake caused by the Earth Strider Insect Beast earlier that collapsed many areas.
At the entrance of a cave, a female insect beast was killed by falling rocks, holding tightly in her arms a little monster that was half human, half insect. This little monster, with half of its body crushed by rocks, was crying out.
“A hybrid of insect and human,” Xiaomei conveyed to Sally.
Sally went over, lifted the little insect-man child from beneath the rocks, “The umbilical cord is still attached; it’s just been born.”
“Give him to me!” A human man, also injured, pleaded with Sally with a look full of sorrow, “Please, I beg you!”
“Is this your child with the female insect?”
“Yes. She’s not like the other members of the Insect Clan. She saved me, and we are married.”
“…Here you go.” Sally quietly had Xiaomei heal the hybrid child’s injuries, “We’ve come to kill the Insect Queen. Do you know where she is?”
The mention of the Insect Queen brought a look of profound hatred to the man’s face. “I know, my wife was once a servant to the Empress. After marrying me, she always wanted a child, but the Insect Clan and the Human Clan cannot reproduce offspring. So she begged the Queen for a Fertility Egg, but the Queen took her eyes for it. My wife’s eyes were particularly beautiful, a pair of sapphire pupils.”
Sally looked towards the dead female insect beast whose eyes were two empty pits, indeed missing.
