Chapter 67
The cat-eared beastman raised his head slightly and quickly glanced at the young man with black hair and red eyes standing next to him. The other party had a young and childish face, but was extraordinarily handsome. He looked a little dazed when he kept silent, but his smile was probably enough to charm thousands of girls. He looked exactly like the countless rich young men he had deceived before, without any brains.
If this were not the case, he might copy the other person's face next time so that he could continue his career of fraud.
But even this innocent boy, when he finally broke free of his restraints and tried to escape, didn't even raise his hand. He still kept his hand on his communicator, looking down at something he was sending. Before he was suddenly struck by a monster that suddenly jumped out of the shadows on the ground and buried his head in the high-tech composite floor, he thought he was sending a message to the other guards to surround him.
Who would have thought that this was also a monster in human skin... The cat-eared beastman was seriously injured, his head was buzzing, and the blood flowing from his forehead blurred his vision. There was darkness in front of his eyes and he could not see anything clearly.
Silently, he was forced to raise his head. Only then did he slowly feel someone grabbing his hair and pulling his head up. In the hazy light, even from a distance, the young man's face, which looked like a murderous demon in his eyes, was still vivid and clear. Fear had penetrated deep into his bones. The taciturn Overlord rarely spoke: "Don't run away."
He warned the disobedient orc in a calm voice: "It will be very troublesome to capture him alive."
So the orc lay on the ground and pretended to be dead, and there was no need to tie him up with a rope. The boy's implication was very clear: if he ran away again, he would die.
But he really didn't know which great god he had offended, so that when he was about to leave this star field on a spaceship, report the intelligence he gained on this trip to the sponsor, and happily count the reward when passing the last inspection checkpoint before departure, he suddenly encountered the local bully Zerg blocking the entire area.
The cat-eared beastman, disguised as an ordinary tourist, groaned inwardly. If it were any other faction imposing the blockade, he could have used some cunning tactics, perhaps even gotten lucky and escaped without being searched. But the visitors were the Zerg, the notorious Zerg, more serious than machines. Anyone who could outwit them was either never born or had died inexplicably.
He was still holding on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that it might just be a loose routine inspection and they would just let him go after a quick look, and that the operation would be very smooth. However, as his innate sixth sense started to alarm him frantically, he almost had exclamation marks of anxiety appearing on his head, and he had already stood up and was about to find a secluded corner to change his identity.
A white-haired man of exceptional beauty and superior appearance appeared at the starship's opened hatch. He was flanked by two attendants who stood respectfully behind him, their faces expressionless, like robots. The man's uniform was formal and luxurious, and anyone with discerning taste could tell at a glance that even the inconspicuous button on his coat was made of top-tier materials.
His cobalt blue eyes, as cold as ice and snow, swept across lightly, and everyone in the entire starship dared not breathe. They were shocked by the rare appearance in this life, and intimidated by the other party's powerful aura of the superior race. They sat stiffly in the chair and prayed that they would not be the unlucky one.
The cat-eared beastman was the most nervous one, because he had already stood up, standing out among everyone else and was extremely conspicuous. He wanted to adjust his expression so that he looked no different from other passengers, but for some reason he couldn't stop feeling nervous, so he had to stand there and watch the man walk towards him.
The closer you get, the more you can see the other person's stunning appearance, which is as beautiful as a god. It is no different from the mermaids who are famous for their beauty on the Ocean Star, and even better.
He shuddered as the man stood in front of him, habitually raising a gentle smile, but the smile only remained on the surface: "Please come with me."
The cat-eared beastman took a deep breath and made the most daring move of his life, a move he would never have the chance to try again. Relying on his natural agility, he quickly took out a simple smoke bomb from his pocket and threw it out, then crouched down and rushed straight to the exit.
boom--
It was not the sound of a smoke bomb exploding, but rather as if an invisible giant hand had descended from the sky, or perhaps it was the Buddha's Five Finger Mountain, pressing him to the ground and making him unable to move. He caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye that the smoke bomb was not triggered for some reason, but was instead stepped on by the man's black boots and easily crushed into a pile of useless fragments.
"Take him back." The white-haired young man ordered casually. The two servants, or subordinates who had no sense of existence, walked up quickly, tied him up, picked him up with one hand, and boarded another docked starship in a blink of an eye.
Up to this point, the cat-eared beastman still thought that he had not done anything serious and was just unlucky. While happily looking at this advanced starship that he could never get even if he defrauded others in his lifetime, he wondered if he had offended some big shot recently. After thinking about it, he could only think of the two mysterious but kind-hearted sisters.
He thought that these two people were subordinates hired by the Zerg, who were unhappy about being deceived by him and were looking for someone to teach him a lesson. He never thought that the one who arrested him was an Overlord. He was thrown into the dim meeting room, and the stupid boy who was guarding him was also an Overlord.
When Wen Yuxiao came back, she was reconciling her testimony with Yun Yuxi. The two of them racked their brains to fabricate the life story of the little monster floating around the room. With the contract to work for her for 10,000 years, the latter now obeyed her every word. They were afraid that she would be annoyed and complain again, so the 10,000 years would be doubled tenfold to 100,000 years.
Finally, they reached a consensus and let Yun Yuxi take the blame, saying that he was the product of the mixture of the two's divine powers. Here, it is particularly emphasized that Wen Yuxiao was not aware of it at the beginning and could only adopt the other party "with tears".
"You know that too," Wen Yuxiao said, looking at her sister with a bitter expression as they were rehearsing. "He left his mother the moment he was born... Why are you laughing?! Hold it in!"
Yun Yuxi, who was laughing so hard that her face was twitching, couldn't help laughing in the end. She pinched her mouth with shaking hands and made an "OK" gesture, signaling her sister to start over.
Out of the ten rehearsals, nine ended with Yun Yuxi unable to hold back her laughter. One time, she said she was hungry, but the contract stated that she couldn't go hungry no matter how much she sold herself, so Wen Yuxiao had no choice but to go out with her for a big meal before coming back to continue rehearsing.
Unfortunately, time was running out. When they were laughing for the last time, the slight vibration from the spacecraft landing reminded them that time was up. Wen Yuxiao stood up, and the little monster who had been squatting beside her, pretending to be a soft and defenseless black cat that could be ravaged at will, quickly followed. Yun Yuxi had to be the last one and closed the hatch.
"Your Highness." The person standing in the front was, as expected, a priest. The white-haired young man smiled like a golden retriever that hadn't seen its master for a long time. In the blink of an eye, he rubbed against Wen Yuxiao's side, coincidentally pushing Yun Yuxi, who had just stood there, away. "Welcome home, I missed you so much."
There's a difference between sending a message and saying it in person. Wen Yuxiao sighed that now he had a place to rest and someone waiting for him at home. He naturally took the other person's hand, holding it firmly and interlocking their fingers without any reaction. He smiled sincerely, "Well, I'm back."
Having not seen each other for a long time, the longing has filled his entire restless heart. The priest wanted to stick with Her Majesty the Queen and talk for a while, because those annoying colleagues who were taken advantage of by him would come over soon, and would definitely divert Wen Yuxiao's attention.
He had just opened his mouth, and before he could make a sound, a pitch-black furry ball stood in front of the Queen he had been thinking about. Two blood-red eyes stared at him fiercely, like a little animal whose mother had been taken away: "Who are you!"
Wen Yuxiao looked at the grinning little monster guarding her, and at the priest with a wary look and a bad expression. She felt her clasped hands tighten instantly. She really wanted to recite the lines she had prepared long ago, but seeing the two people confronting each other and about to fight in the next second, she could only think in her heart: If the world is destroyed now, what are the chances of Yun Yuxi rebuilding it?
Then he quickly realized that he couldn't put his hopes on a good-for-nothing.
