Chapter 70
As the saying goes, a bowl of water can never be kept level. No matter how carefully you hold it, it will always tilt slightly to the left or center, eventually spilling out water droplets that represent a break in balance.
So Wen Yuxiao chose to overturn the bowl directly.
She first struggled to free herself from the long scorpion tail wrapped around her waist. Fortunately, the scorpion was obedient and, sensing her intention to leave, let her go. Then she put down the little monster in her arms. Before anyone could react, she grabbed the cat from Yun Yuxi's arms, who was watching the show nearby, raised it with both hands, and announced to the others, "Believe in the Cat Cult!"
The King Bug, with its calm, clear golden eyes, seemed to see through everything in the world. It lowered its head and, in response to the Queen's sudden playfulness, said in a gentle voice, "I wish to believe in the Cat Cult."
The little monster suddenly changed its opponent, still only a beast that posed no threat and could be swallowed in one gulp. Its chaotic mind was still unable to make sense of it, so it could only vaguely imitate another person to please others: "I also want to believe in the Cat God Cult...?"
The storm died down at this point. It might be said that the king insects were very good at reading Wen Yuxiao's expression and had learned how to guess her intentions. Occasionally, they would take advantage of her favor and make a fuss, letting her enjoy the pleasure of others vying for their favor, so that they could get closer to her. However, as soon as they saw that she was unhappy, they would stop immediately and act like brothers and sisters, arm in arm, in a peaceful manner. It was impossible to tell that these insects would really kill each other in private.
Wen Yuxiao didn't bother to care about so many things. She just knew that she was really tired now. Something had been weighing on her mind these days and she couldn't sleep well. Now that she had gotten over the matter, it was considered a conclusion. She breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to wash up, lie down on the bed and sleep soundly.
There were no further incidents along the way. The scholar noticed that Wen Yuxiao was exhausted and sleepy, so he took the little monster and stood a little further away from her. Yun Yuxi took the orange cat back and wanted to go into the room with her sister, after all, they slept together on the starship, but an arm stretched out from the side and stopped her.
Watching the automatic door close before his eyes, the god glared at the Overlord: "Why won't you let me in?"
The little monster also jumped up and stood beside Yun Yuxi for the first time to support her, as if they shared the same hatred for the enemy.
The golden-eyed insect smiled politely, his expression flawless, and pointed in a new direction for her and the little monster at his feet: "Excuse me, your room is this way."
When Wen Yuxiao woke up again, it was time to return. The Zerg took advantage of her rest time to deal with the follow-up matters. The black area had been eaten up by the monsters. There was not even a meteorite left, and there was not a single usable resource. There was no need to arrange so many people to guard it.
As for those gray planets on the edge, there is no relevant conflict of interest, and the Zerg are too lazy to care about them and let them fend for themselves.
When to go back depends entirely on Wen Yuxiao's mood. If she suddenly wants to stay here for ten days or half a month, others will be willing to stay. However, her home was robbed once. Although she knew that there was a king insect guarding the base camp with decent combat effectiveness and military strategy, she came in a hurry and there were still many places in her home that she had not explored, so she waved her hand and set off that day.
Still remembering that Yun Yuxi had asked him what a welcome ceremony looked like, Wen Yuxiao had instructed the priest to prepare one for him when the time came. The latter was obviously a little reluctant, but did not let anyone notice. He honestly asked the Queen what kind of welcome ceremony she wanted, and the answer he got was the more grand the better.
"After all, she is also a god." Wen Yuxiao smiled with some ill intentions. The white-haired king insect nodded in understanding. While thinking that the princess who was about to cause trouble was so cute, he included this matter in his schedule.
A pale blue electronic screen unfolded before him. The young man quickly scanned through his recent pending tasks, swiping his finger downwards, preparing to add the Queen's prank. Curious, Wen Yuxiao leaned over to take a look, and happened to spot a schedule for the future: Queen's Coronation Ceremony, Priority: Highest, Planning and Organization: 50%, Specific Plan: Invite leaders from all interstellar civilizations to attend...
"This." Wen Yuxiao's hands moved faster than her brain. This was her instinctive reaction when faced with things that could skyrocket her social status and make her wish she were on another planet. "Remove it."
The Overlord responded with a look of pity and pleading, "It's already halfway organized..."
Unfortunately, Wen Yuxiao's current mood is: If I don't stop him now, I will be embarrassed in front of all the people in the galaxy in the future. At that time, the only way to save myself from shame is to restart this entire galaxy.
That's why she was able to be so hard-hearted as to ignore the other party's attack on her beauty and resolutely cancel the plan.
When we returned, we were much busier than when we came. The king insects, who had only been able to handle some simple matters remotely these days, became busy. Even the terminals that seemed very idle on weekdays were running at full speed. In order to manage such a huge civilization, no one had any extra thoughts and just worked together to push the little monsters aside.
Wen Yuxiao wanted to help. As Her Majesty the Queen, she couldn't just sit there and do nothing. Unfortunately, this was not a management game, and there was no fixed strategy. She felt dizzy just looking at those complicated documents that were mixed with countless hidden tricks. She pondered over a communication record for an hour but still didn't understand what the other party's needs were, nor what benefits it could bring to her side.
This was just a small, unimportant thing that was carefully selected by the other king insects after discussion for her to practice.
Unable to figure it out, Wen Yuxiao called Yun Yuxi to suffer with him. Yun Yuxi had no patience and after half an hour of trying to figure it out, he flipped the table and suggested, "Why don't I just pry open their heads and start over?"
Wen Yuxiao, having realized she wasn't suited to handling government affairs, lay down. It was only natural, with no guilt at all. Her talent wasn't there, so why force it? She looked at Yun Yuxi, who had already laid down before her. She still couldn't understand the intrigues and schemes, and when she was undecided, she would throw bricks at anyone.
Fortunately, the Zerg were very efficient and dealt with most of the accumulated issues in just a few days. The only things that remained were those that needed to be revealed in person after returning. The little monster that had been entangled finally had the opportunity to sneak back to Wen Yuxiao and complain to her in a whimpering manner.
Excluding the sleeping time during the wormhole jump, their huge group quickly returned to the Zerg main star. At that time, Yun Yuxi didn't know what he was going to face. He hugged the orange cat that had not been sent to the cat cafe yet, hummed a song, and followed Wen Yuxiao, who was trying to hold back his laughter, as he walked down the starship. He bent down and touched the cat, felt something was wrong, and when he looked up again, there was no one in front of him.
Swish—a grand red carpet unfurled from beneath her feet, rolling all the way to the end of the road. Countless flower petals drifted down from the sky, and clusters of fireworks exploded in the air. On both sides of the red carpet stood expressionless musicians, beating drums and gongs, and the festive sound resounded throughout the world. The other Zerg stood outside the railings, clapping as if for a matter of course, and then read:
"Wow, it's the God of Creation, so awesome."
"I can actually see God. What a surprise, ah, ah." After saying this, the man closed his eyes exaggeratedly and fainted.
"My Lord God, please look at me. I am your fan." The flattering tone and perfunctory expression made it so that no matter who came, they would have to call him a fake fan.
Yun Yuxi was stunned for a long moment, watching all this unfold. The automatic camera in the sky took the opportunity to snap a series of photos of her face. A professional introduction from the host came from a large electronic screen not far away: "This is our creator god..."
But she was a super-e person who could scare Wen Yuxiao to death. She went with the flow with optimism and cheerfulness, waving at the camera while turning to greet people. She walked down the red carpet with her head held high and her cat in her arms. Seeing her sister standing there in amazement, she even said hello: "Let's go together."
Yes, who can come up with such a shame-summoning spell? What kind of social phobia can one have?
Wen Yuxiao silently chose to take a detour. Unfortunately, there was also an obstacle in her way. They had met before, so he looked very familiar. He often appeared in the entertainment videos she watched. The superstar whose face was hyped up by social media as a traffic password just for his face was smiling. His eyes curved with laughter. He was glamorous and handsome. He stood straight at the exit and greeted her: "Your Highness."
After brainstorming for a while, Wen Yuxiao came back to his senses and nodded to the man who was so famous that he would cause screams wherever he went, tacitly allowing him to follow the team behind him.
There were not many people on this road. Apart from a few necessary service personnel and the sounds of equipment, it was surprisingly quiet. Wen Yuxiao breathed a sigh of relief with satisfaction. While relaxing, she suddenly had a mischievous thought: if a missile was dropped here, wouldn't the entire Zerg be wiped out in one go?
Having just dismissed this fantastic idea, Wen Yuxiao looked back and counted, only to find that there were only five Overlords present. Two of them had left the team at some point. Before she could even think about who was missing, her mental barrier suddenly opened up beside her.
The deafening roar and the heat wave caused by the explosion were blocked by the invisible shield. Wen Yuxiao was not affected at all, so he looked at the white-haired king insect beside him with a confused expression. He tried to find the answer from him at first, but could only get a soothing smile.
Then she immediately realized that the explosion site was not far from her, but it was the first time in her life that she encountered such a dangerous situation right next to her, and she was a little confused for a while.
And that place... Yun Yuxi is there!
As Wen Yuxiao turned around, the priest restrained his calm and gentle expression, and looked up coldly at the fire burning not far away. A blazing flame was reflected in his ice-blue pupils. Then his eyes turned and he looked at the scholar beside him, silently communicating: The plan has been successful.
Although Yun Yuxi didn't need him to worry, this was her territory, and she was also responsible for such a big thing... Wen Yuxiao knew that he lacked combat experience, so he pulled the little monster that was bouncing around in place and hurriedly ran towards the fire scene.
That guy...will nothing happen to him?
