Chapter 351: Heavenly Cloud Holy Temple
"Nono, wake up! I'm taking Snowball and the others out too. I'll wait for you at the temple entrance."
Just as Anuo was about to leave, she received a call from Anaiya. She saw that Anaiya was with two children on the other end of the line. The older boy was serious and unsmiling, and was practically a miniature version of Cangmiao. The younger girl was lively and kept pestering the boy to play.
She had already met several of Anaiya's children. The eldest boy was Cangyao, and the girl was Jialan. The two children usually traveled between the Styx Galaxy and the Tianyun Galaxy. Anaiya was usually busy with the purification work in the Tianyun Galaxy, and could only spend some time with the children when she had free time.
Anno still felt somewhat dazed and unreal about the fact that Anaya already had a child.
In her opinion, Sister Nai was only a year older than her, and didn't look that much older now.
Zerg have long lifespans, and at Nai's age, she is only just entering adulthood in the Zerg race.
Thinking about the short lifespan of the Holy Spirit, she couldn't help but feel melancholy. Before long, she would face the day of parting with Sister Nai.
Not only her, but also Logan's mother and Karina.
Anno quickly gathered her thoughts; since it was something for the future, there was no need to be sad about it now.
Caesar and Secris accompanied her out. The weather was sunny today, but the temperature was still not high. Anno wore a long coat and boarded the aircraft towards the Holy City.
The temple is located in the Holy City, near the capital, where most of the Holy Spirits reside. All the minor Holy Spirits are also concentrated in the Holy City and raised by several guardian families.
An hour later, the aircraft arrived at the temple. Although Anaya had informed the guards outside the temple in advance, their aircraft underwent numerous checks before being allowed to pass.
In the past, the Tianyun Galaxy was not stable, especially since the Holy Spirit was often kidnapped and attacked, similar to the situation in the Beihe Galaxy. The Tianyun Galaxy was divided into different factions regarding the existence of the Holy Spirit, and for the Holy Spirit's safety, Tianyun became increasingly strict in this regard.
However, the Holy Spirits are even rarer than the sparks of the North River System in the past. In the year that Anaea came to the Tianyun System, the birth rate of the Holy Spirits had already dropped to zero. Only in recent years have a few new Holy Spirits been born.
The alliance between the Tianyun Galaxy and the Zerg was not solely due to Cangmiao and Anya. Such a large galaxy must have involved interests, and these interests were acceptable to Seville and Augsis. This is why a new alliance was formed during the reorganization of the Interstellar Alliance, allowing for long-term cooperation and mutual benefit.
What the Zerg can provide are minerals and energy. The Zerg's special energy is exactly what Tianyun needs now, and it plays a very important role in the growth and restoration of the Sacred Tree, as well as the birth of the Holy Spirit.
This is also why Anno, as an outsider, was able to come to the temple.
The aircraft landed in the square outside the temple. As soon as Anno stepped out of the aircraft, Anaiya came out to greet her, and Snowball ran up to her, sweetly calling her "Sister Anno".
Although it would be more accurate to call her "Auntie" according to seniority, Xueqiu couldn't bring herself to call her "Auntie" because of her age.
She and Anaya didn't care about the seniority and just let them call them whatever they wanted.
"Sister Nuonuo, would you like to come to our house for dinner today?" Jialan blinked her beautiful big eyes, which resembled Anaya's, as she looked at her.
Anno nodded and took out the gift he had prepared for Snowball and gave it to her.
Snowball happily accepted the palm-sized gift box, opened it, and found a necklace made of Zerg minerals, which was very beautiful.
"Thank you, Sister Nuonuo!"
Galan smiled and thanked her, then took the necklace and had Anaiya put it on her.
Anuo took out another gift and handed it to Cangyao, who was standing quietly to the side. Looking at the face that was almost exactly the same as Cangmiao's, she wanted to touch his head. Thinking that Cangmiao always treated her like a child whenever he saw her, she felt a little depressed. After all, she was about the same age as Sister Nai. Although there was an age difference now, she was not a child anymore.
Just as she was about to pat Cang Yao's head, Cang Yao took a step back, said "Thank you, Your Highness," and dodged her hand.
Anno raised an eyebrow slightly and looked at Anaiya beside him, "He and Cangmiao have the same personality."
Anaya smiled helplessly: "Yeah, I feel like I got the short end of the stick."
After hearing this, Cang Yao moved closer to Anaya and said to her, "Mom is right. I love Mom just as much as Father does."
Galan hugged Anaiya tightly around the waist, saying, "Snowball loves Mommy the most too!"
Anaya looked at the two children with tenderness in her eyes.
Anno looked at them, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.
"Come on, Nono, I'll take you inside." Anaya patted the two children's heads and led Nono into the temple.
This was Anno's third time visiting the temple, so he was quite familiar with the place.
The temple of Tianyun was magnificent and very different from the temple architecture of their insectoid race.
As soon as she entered, she was enveloped by a dense energy. This energy was quite different from the energy of the Zerg, but she could accept it, though she was still not quite used to it.
She could sense that this energy was conscious, and that this consciousness came from the sacred tree in the temple.
Anno stood before a golden gate several meters high, inscribed with ancient celestial script. Anaya stepped forward and touched the gate, which slowly opened, revealing the scene inside.
A towering tree radiating a soft light came into Anno's view.
This sacred tree is the most powerful sacred tree in the Tianyun Galaxy, and it is in its prime.
Anno repeatedly came to the temple, hoping to find the soul consciousness of the Wind Spirit Queen through this sacred tree.
The soul of the Wind Spirit Queen should return to the Zerg and reunite with her ancestors, instead of drifting in the cold universe.
Anno walked to the Sacred Tree, took out the core of the flying star from his body, and the Sacred Tree lowered a soft branch, nuzzled Anno's head, and then wrapped it around Anno's wrist.
Anno felt the energy flowing into her body was much gentler than last time, and she closed her eyes following the guidance of the sacred tree's energy.
She hoped that this time, she could connect with the consciousness of the Wind Spirit Queen.
First, darkness enveloped her vision, then gradually, light appeared before her eyes, and her consciousness seemed to leave her body and go to another space.
She heard ethereal, chaotic sounds, and a hazy image appeared before her eyes. After a while, the image gradually became clearer.
The night sky was filled with stars, the dark environment was illuminated by the light of various colored minerals, and there was a huge palace in front of her.
Anno was slightly taken aback. Had she returned to the Zerg royal palace?
Composing herself, she strode into the palace. Outside the palace were many Zerg guards, and many Zerg officers were coming and going inside, all with solemn expressions.
As soon as she entered the palace, she saw many family members holding a military meeting in the main hall, making a great deal of noise.
And seated on the throne above the main hall was the beautiful Wind Spirit Queen.
