Chapter 451 Am I too late?
Si Xian subconsciously felt it was the former; as a wife who had married into the royal family, Qu Tong dared not touch him.
He guessed right, and he guessed wrong.
The emerald vines swept away the remaining guards without hindrance, and then a streak of green light pierced straight into Si Xian's brow.
The Zerg Essence Stone not only saved the baby, but also helped her recover nearly half of her mental energy.
Si Xian, an S-class, didn't even have a chance to dodge.
"ah!"
A pig-like scream rang out, and Si Xian rolled on the ground, clutching his head.
"Ah! My spiritual sea! My spiritual sea!"
"You vile woman! I! I'm going to kill you!"
"Your Majesty!"
Lan Hanyan, who had been pulled away by Hu Qing earlier, was so frightened that her legs went weak and she fell against Hu Qing. Hu Qing shuddered and pushed her to the ground, even taking two steps back as if avoiding a snake.
Lan Hanyan crawled towards Si Xian while crying, but was pushed away by Si Xian, who was in excruciating pain. She hit her head on the steps and passed out.
"Serves you right!" Hu Qing spit out, too lazy to even help him up.
Everyone in the gene bank and the elders' council felt threatened and retreated in a circle.
Si Xian cursed and howled, and in no time a bloody piece of scalp was ripped off.
No one is unaware of how painful it is to have one's spirit shattered.
That is not just a temporary pain, but a torment that accompanies you for life, like a maggot clinging to your bone.
They didn't know how the princess managed to destroy someone's mental state without causing death or turning them into a fool.
Si Yuting walked forward expressionlessly and knocked the man unconscious with a single palm strike.
Si Chen couldn't bear to turn his head away, and raised his hand: "Someone come here..."
"Your Majesty, General Si!" Gu Qiao's respectful voice cut in from afar, drowning out Si Chen's words, and reported, "A travel ship is flying low over this area."
"We're already here."
Si Chen was still searching his mind for which travel ships could enter the capital's star system when he heard a loud "boom." The astronomical monument opposite the gate, symbolizing justice and integrity, collapsed and kicked up a cloud of dust.
The enormous travel ship hovered in the air, just behind and to the side of Qu Tong. The wind generated by the burning energy lifted Qu Tong's soft, black hair.
"I seem to be late, Miss Ali. Are you still leaving?" The window rolled down, and a strange man's head popped out.
"It's not too late." Qu Tong shook her head.
The ladder descended a few steps behind Qu Tong and touched the ground. As long as Qu Tong turned around, she could leave this place quickly.
"Tongtong, are you leaving?" Wen You asked, her eyes showing surprise but not confusion.
"Hmm." Qu Tong looked at their clasped hands.
Wenyou loosened her grip.
Qu Tong turned and stepped onto the access ladder without looking back.
"Ah Li!" Si Yuting panicked and rushed towards the travel ship.
"Your Highness, please wait." Qu Tong turned around on the steps, her gaze towards Si Yuting calm as still water.
Si Yuting stood there, stunned, a sharp pain shooting through his heart.
Ah Li is leaving, leaving alone.
"Ah Li, can you not leave?" Si Yuting made a last-ditch effort.
"No." Qu Tong said, enunciating each word clearly.
“Ah Li…”
Si Yuting felt something stuck in his throat, unable to speak, and his steps felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, making it impossible for him to take a single step.
He has put Ali and the baby in danger twice in a row, which is a dereliction of duty for him, both as a husband and a father.
The live broadcast clearly conveyed this scene to the audience.
What's going on? Is the Crown Princess leaving?
Why? Didn't His Highness the God of War seek justice for the Crown Princess?
[Yes, everyone supports the Crown Princess and His Highness the God of War. With His Highness the God of War around, no one dares to force the Crown Princess to go to the gene bank anymore. Everything is getting better. Why does the Crown Princess want to leave?]
Could it be that the princess is completely disappointed? If it were me, I would be heartbroken too.
Yes, if it weren't for that magical insect spirit, the princess would have almost died along with her unborn child.
"No, Your Highness, there are still many wonderful people and things here."
Doesn't the Princess Consort want to see other bad people receive their due punishment?
Where is the Princess Consort going? Will we be able to see her livestreams again?
[It seems unlikely; this is a Class A cruiser.]
What are Class A cruise ships?
[Class A travel ships are the most luxurious interstellar travel ships, also known as ghost ships. Boarding a ghost ship means heading towards the true vastness of space, and no one knows where the destination will be.]
...
"Ah Li, you're pregnant, I'm worried about you." Si Yuting moved his lips and took another difficult step.
"Let Tongtong go, it's not safe here." The Empress walked over, pulled Si Yuting back, and shook her head at him.
Yes, it's not safe here.
He failed to protect Ali.
He's useless!
What good would it do for him to convict Si Xian?
Ah Li was still in pain, still hurt.
How helpless Ali must have felt when she knew she couldn't keep her baby.
A deep sadness flashed in Si Yuting's eyes.
Suppressing the pain in his chest, he raised his hand and then lowered it again, clenching his fist tightly, not feeling anything despite the pain.
"Ah Li, take good care of yourself."
Si Yuting's gaze lingered greedily on Qu Tong, as if he wanted to etch every part of her into his mind.
"Message me if you want to come back."
"I'll come pick you up."
Qu Tong calmly turned around under the gaze of Si Yuting and many others, and steadily stepped onto the stairs.
Your Highness, please don't disappoint her.
Before the hatch closed, Qu Tong gently raised her hand, and the vines surrounding the exit of the administration building surged, shrank, and transformed into a streak of green light that flew toward Qu Tong's wrist.
The trapped staff members rushed out of the administration building as if their lives depended on it.
As the last person emerged, the brand-new administration building collapsed with a deafening roar.
Everyone: "!!!"
Lin Yumo, dressed up, waved in the direction of the Empress, "Sorry, I just learned how to pilot a ship and I'm not proficient yet. Our boss will contact you to compensate for the reconstruction costs of the stone tablet."
Looking at the ruins again, he said, "I'll trouble His Highness the War God to cover the cost of the administration building."
...
They watched Qu Tong leave until the travel ship disappeared into the azure sky, leaving not a single black dot in sight.
Si Yuting withdrew his gaze, released his palm, and his dark eyes regained their cold and sharp edge.
"Wen You, personally escort the King and Consort Han to the military hospital and stay with them until they wake up," Si Yuting ordered directly, following Si Chen's words.
Then he looked at the delegation of envoys beside him, his gaze sweeping over the face of the boy who had not yet looked away from the sky.
The boy felt a chill, turned around and saw the renowned War God of the Canaan Empire, and smiled shyly.
Si Yuting turned his gaze away and asked Si Chen, "Father, have the matters concerning receiving the envoys been settled? If not, may I accompany them?"
"Not yet. Since you're available, I'll leave it entirely to you." Si Chen waved his hand.
The imperial high-fertility protection order was already a headache, and now the emperor has pulled this stunt. Let's leave this difficult matter to someone more capable.
Anyway, he has more say in his wife's affairs.
Si Yuting nodded and reached out his hand towards the main entrance.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty, this way please."
