"Come out! Let the emperor come out and open the port. Our relatives want to come in!"
"You can't do this! This is against the law! Can the royal family break the law and disregard human lives?"
"My brother is the Prison Planet's Star Beast. Why would you send such a dangerous Star Beast out there to die? Get out!"
Countless people surrounded the palace, shouting for the royal family to come out.
Their eyes were red and their emotions were on the verge of collapse. They kept throwing stones at the palace, hitting everything they could. They wanted the royal family to come out and talk, but the royal family kept the door tightly closed.
The guards tried their best to hold the palace gate open and did not dare to let them in at all.
"Come out! All of you, come out!"
But it was of no avail.
It seems as if the royal family is determined to fight until the last moment.
…
On the other side, Li Shu and Huo Wei walked into the room surrounded by the crowd. This was specially prepared for them by the planet captain.
The room is spacious and bright, and outside the floor-to-ceiling window is a blue beach. Under the bright sunlight, the water is sparkling and the grass is green.
It was as if a magnificent and beautiful scene was slowly unfolding.
Li Shu looked at Huo Wei with a smile in his bright eyes. He put his arm around Huo Wei's waist and looked at him with anticipation.
"Do you remember what you promised me before? You had to turn into a snow wolf so I could touch it."
Li Shu raised his head, looking determined.
Huo Wei reached out and rubbed Li Shu's head, and said meaningfully, "Can you bear to become a snow wolf? Huh?"
Li Shu paused, remembering what happened last time. His butt started to ache again. Li Shu knew Huo Wei had done it on purpose.
He glanced at Howie, broke away from Howie's arms, and snorted at him.
"Goodbye, goodbye."
Li Shu was about to leave, but Huo Wei grabbed him and held him in his arms.
Li Shu blinked, her long eyelashes trembling, like a graceful butterfly about to fly high but reluctant to leave.
Huo Wei kissed Li Shu gently and slowly turned into a proud snow wolf. The snow wolf was white all over and looked majestic. Its eyes were bright and sharp, like a tempered scimitar.
Li Shu pursed her lips and pounced on him.
The soft fur is surprisingly shiny.
There was a hint of tenderness in Li Shu's eyes. He hugged the snow wolf's neck with a satisfied and comfortable smile in his eyes.
"That's great! I haven't seen a snow wolf in a long time."
Huo Wei's voice was filled with displeasure, and he said to Li Shu with a hint of jealousy: "So do you like Snow Wolf or me?"
There was a hint of guilt in Li Shu's eyes. He gently rubbed the snow wolf's fur and spoke to it in a flattering voice.
"Can't I like both? Isn't Snow Wolf also you? Right?"
Huo Wei snorted lightly, with a hint of unwillingness between his brows. He rubbed Li Shu's cheek, pressed Li Shu down with his claws, and gently and carefully pressed Li Shu's chest.
With ears rubbing against each other and eyes lowered, as if hanging on Li Shu's body, he whispered to Li Shu: "Now we are really together."
Li Shu's heart trembled. Before he could answer, a burst of footsteps was heard outside the door.
Li Shu frowned slightly, and he gently pushed Huo Wei, signaling Huo Wei to get up.
Huo Wei nudged Li Shu and whispered to him, "Maybe it's something else that's locking them up?"
Li Shu looked over with a bit of disapproval and whispered to Huo Wei: "Huo Wei...get up quickly."
Huo Wei had no choice but to stand up and humph softly at Li Shu.
"Then I'll go open the door."
Howie stood up, and in the blink of an eye he returned to human form and walked towards the door.
The person outside the door had a serious expression on his face. As soon as Huo Wei opened the door, he shouted, "Marshal Huo, something has happened. It's not good!"
Howie's face darkened.
Li Shu pursed his lips, walked up quickly, and looked at Huo Wei with a bit of nervousness in his eyes. He whispered, "What's going on? Is there a problem on the other planet? Is there still an insect swarm that we haven't discovered?"
Li Shu's eyes were filled with anxiety.
He immediately felt uneasy.
Howie gently held his hand and whispered, "Don't guess blindly, listen to what he says."
The person who came was Chen Liang's subordinate, named Chen Wei. Chen Wei's face was filled with anger, and he quickly said to the two people, "For their own safety, the Emperor Star has not only mobilized extremely dangerous star beasts, but also mobilized star beasts from other nearby planets... They have closed the port and do not allow anyone else to enter."
"Right now, the outer reaches of the Imperial Star are almost entirely occupied by stagnant spaceships, and the people inside are all ordinary people."
"But the insect swarm is almost here! Adjutant Chen asked me to ask you if you want to go?"
"The internet is full of criticism of the royal family right now, but it disappears very quickly."
There was a hint of urgency in Chen Wei's eyes.
"Marshal Huo, Mr. Li Shu, once these star beasts are released into space, they will be completely doomed! They can never be saved."
Behind every star beast is a whole family.
As a fellow star beast, Chen Wei could naturally understand that feeling.
He gritted his teeth and looked at Howie.
Huo Wei raised his head, and the moment his eyes met Li Shu's, he knew what the other person was thinking.
They couldn't just sit back and watch. After all, there were so many ordinary people still outside the Imperial Star, and they were all innocent.
The royal family will never care about them and will only use them as stepping stones and shields.
Huo Wei pressed Li Shu's hand, looked at Li Shu with a firm look in his eyes, and said softly, "I'll go first, and then you follow me."
"I will lead the troops to stop the insect swarm first. You take the troops to pick up the ordinary people who are staying outside the Imperial Star. Don't let them stay in the universe."
Insect swarms eat everything.
Not only will they not be protected, but they will also be wiped out by the swarm of insects.
Li Shu pursed his lips.
"What about those star beasts?"
He used to be a breeder and saw too many star beasts lose their minds due to the riot factor and completely become animals. They could no longer restore their human form and could not remember the stories of their relatives.
Huo Wei made a quick decision and said, "How much nutrient solution do you have left? Let's take it all away. As long as I can control the insect swarm, the rest will be easy."
"I'm afraid I don't have enough here, but I can ripen it on the spot. Don't worry, I won't need much supernatural power."
Howie was helpless, but there was nothing he could do. After all, this was the best solution.
However, neither of them expected that their brief reunion would be interrupted by this sudden royal move.
They actually don't give ordinary people any chance to survive.
Howie smiled bitterly.
"I originally thought they wouldn't go to such lengths just to maintain their support, but I didn't expect they would even give up their support just to protect themselves."
Howie frowned, with a melancholy look in his eyes.
"After this is over, we must settle this account with the royal family!"
