The hall was spacious and magnificent. Lan Sinian, completely naked, stalked barefoot. Despite his immense stature, his footsteps were inaudible, yet the air was thick with danger. Lan Sinian was no longer the humorous, masculine man, but a terrifying, human-shaped monster capable of taking a life in a split second.
Qin Changqing looked sadly at the man who kept walking towards him. When someone doesn't have eyes for you, you can feel it. Qin Changqing could clearly see the dead silence in those sapphire blue eyes. There was no obsessive love for him, nor the bright brilliance that he used to have when he saw him... Nothing, nothing...
Shen Hai had already stood in front of Qin Changqing when he looked at him with cold eyes. His sword-like brows were tightly furrowed. As the emperor's confidant, he was absolutely loyal to Lan Sinian. However, he knew in his heart that in front of the unconscious Majesty, he must do everything he can to protect the Queen's life first, even if his actions went against the "wishes" of the Emperor.
"Sinian..." Qin Changqing whispered Lan Sinian's name over Shenhai's shoulder. At this moment, cramps shot through his abdomen, causing cold sweat to form on his face. He groaned, clutching his stomach and nearly falling to the ground.
A hint of doubt suddenly flashed across his sapphire blue eyes, as cold as ice for thousands of years. He paused in his steps. Ulysses, who was standing on the other side, immediately noticed his abnormality. He ordered again in a calm and hoarse voice: "Kill him!" If he still didn't want anyone to interfere with his experiment before, then he would have decided to get rid of these two people, especially Qin Changqing, who had a great influence on Lan Sinian.
Over thirty years ago, the Third Prince, Lan Saifei, was manipulated by Lan Lezhang into a massacre of civilians. Everyone thought he was insane, while others believed he was inherently cruel. His previous glamorous appearance was merely a carefully crafted facade by the royal family. In short, no one realized he was being manipulated. After all, he was such a powerful psychic, how could he be manipulated? Even the old emperor hadn't considered this at the time.
Therefore, when Lan Saifei occasionally regained consciousness, realizing his hands were stained with blood, and unable to find anyone to help him, he could only try every possible way to save himself, stumbling forward in the darkness, trying to convey to the outside world that he was being controlled. However, in all the years he was controlled, he had only succeeded in transmitting this information twice: once when he secretly sent Guila's blood, and once when he spoke to the Horned Dragonfish King shortly before his death.
After the death of the eldest prince, Lan Yueyuan, Ulysses vaguely learned from the old emperor some secret information that might be behind the incident. He followed up on the investigation and, by chance, discovered that the second prince was the mastermind behind it all! The more Ulysses investigated, the more alarmed he became, and the more he saw Lan Lezhang's viciousness.
When Lan Saifei was still alive, with his strong will, he actually had a chance to wake up and escape his fate, but Lan Lezhang constantly used various methods to erode his will. He told Lan Saifei that the old emperor had completely given up on him, bluntly saying that he had raised a beast and would definitely kill him because he had four children and it didn't make any difference whether he was with him or not. He told Lan Saifei that his lover Guila hated him for not keeping his promise and not picking him up, and had completely become a prostitute, sleeping with thousands of men and riding with thousands of men, and she enjoyed it. He told him that because of his powerful power, nearly ten million innocent civilians had died in the empire. He told him that many of his good friends in the military had died at his hands, and that his hands were stained with so much blood that he could never wash them clean...
In this way, he tortured Lan Saifei's nerves with all kinds of words until Lan Saifei's will completely collapsed and he died at his father's hands...
Ulysses has no interest in destroying the world. He just wants to use Lan Sinian's body to create a brand new body for his lover Lan Yueyuan to come back to life. But it is not easy to make a perfect body, so he must keep the person firmly under his control and eliminate all uncertain factors!
After hearing Ulysses' voice, the hesitation in Lan Sinian's eyes disappeared again. He raised his hand and a water arrow suddenly stabbed at the two of them! Shen Hai, who was from the same deep-sea tribe as him, immediately raised a water wall in front of the two of them to block his attack.
Ulysses frowned and ordered the fake Ah Hua beside him again: "Go kill him!"
The fake Ahua's dark eyes flashed and he looked at Qin Changqing, but hesitated.
That person was so handsome. He seemed to be radiating light, a soft and bright glow, like a warm light in the dark night, attracting his attention like a magnet. He was so handsome. He wanted to get closer to him and hug him...
"Go!" Ulysses was furious and turned around and slapped him in the face.
The fake Ahua did not resist and actually walked towards Qin Changqing.
In the empty castle, there was a deafening sound of surging waves. It was the battle between Lansnian and Shenhai. Shenhai noticed the direction in which the fake Ahua was moving, but he had no chance of winning against Lansnian. Now he was entangled by Lansnian and couldn't get away. His usually expressionless face showed a rare hint of anxiety.
Fake Ah Hua walked step by step until he was less than five meters away from Qin Changqing. He had only a subtle thought in his mind, but as he got closer, it gradually turned into an intense desire. He wanted to capture this person and make him look only at him forever! Fake Ah Hua's dark eyes lit up, and he slowly raised his hand towards him...
At this moment, a translucent figure suddenly appeared in front of the two of them. It was a man in his thirties, about the same height and build as Lan Sinian.
"Jump into the Abyss!" Ulysses shouted in surprise, and ran quickly towards the phantom.
The translucent figure known as "Yueyuan" turned his head to look at him, his brows slowly furrowed. After a moment of silence, he said, "Ulysses, let them go."
"No! I must use his genes to create a new body for you. As long as I create a new body for you, you can live again! We can be together again!"
Ulysses might have gone mad a long time ago. Although he was very happy to see Lan Yueyuan, he couldn't listen to what he said at this moment. After he finished talking excitedly, he seemed to remember something and muttered with regret, "It's a pity that we didn't get Qin Xu's blood. It's possible that the genes of these Earthlings preserved the 'original genes' of the Imperials before they were transformed. After combining with the genes of the Imperials, all the negative effects of the virus were eliminated! And his genes have also undergone powerful mutations! Just like the manic virus, it can absorb the supernatural powers of other superpowers. I've studied his blood, and his mental violence rate is close to zero!"
"If I could get his genes and rebuild a body for you, it would definitely be perfect! Unfortunately, they're too protective of him. I've tried several times but haven't been able to get him here!"
Qin Changqing, standing nearby, heard his neurotic words clearly. He suddenly felt a chill. Qin Xu was still so young, and this person actually treated him as a research subject! These people were terrifying! Whether it was Lan Lezhang or Ulysses, in their eyes, there was no such thing as the most basic human ethics!
He suddenly thought, could it be that these people knew the benefits of Earthling genes for the Empire's superpowers, and that's why they launched an aggressive war against Earth?!
He shuddered uncontrollably. This was too horrible. He was already anxious because of Lan Sinian's reaction, and he hadn't had a good rest before. When he thought of this possibility again, he felt a blackout in front of his eyes, and the cramps in his abdomen came again, making his face as white as gold paper. Beads of sweat kept rolling down, soaking the front of his shirt.
Lan Yueyuan looked at Ulysses with an expression of extreme disappointment and heartache. Ulysses was at least half the result of being irritated by his death. He said in a deep voice, "Ulysses, I'll say it again. Let them go!"
Ulysses looked at him with disapproval, "No!" After he refused, he seemed to remember who Lan Yueyuan was and softened his tone to explain, "Yueyuan, don't make a fuss. The fourth brother volunteered. You are his eldest brother. If you could come back to life, he would be very happy!"
He then ordered the fake Ah Hua again: "I told you to kill him, didn't you hear me?!"
While they were talking, the fake Ahua kept staring at Qin Changqing with burning eyes. However, before he could say anything, an invisible force knocked him over, and his body hit the wall heavily!
Everything happened incredibly quickly. By the time everyone realized what was happening, Lan Yueyuan's translucent form had already slipped into the battle zone between Lan Sinian and Shen Hai. While Lan Yueyuan wasn't as formidable as the Third Prince, Lan Saifei, back then, his power was still considerable. Lan Sinian, manipulated by someone else and having to contend with two powerful adversaries simultaneously, was momentarily overwhelmed.
Qin Changqing covered his stomach, his eyes fixed on him. Seeing that he was losing ground, he couldn't help but feel anxious. He was afraid that Shen Hai and the other man might not be careful in the fight and hurt Lan Sinian. He shouted in a hoarse voice: "Sinian..." At the same time, beads of sweat the size of beans fell to the ground like pearls with broken strings, and he didn't know if there were any tears mixed in them.
Lan Sinian seemed to sense something during the battle and tilted his head towards him.
Strands of cinnabar-colored light emanated from Qin Changqing's body, gathering into a torrent above his head. Like a dragon or a phoenix, it slowly soared into the air, finally sweeping towards Lan Sinian's body. However, the light split into two streams mid-air, with the majority flying towards Lan Sinian, while the smaller portion unexpectedly flowed towards the fake Ah Hua, who was lying in the corner.
The others could not see the red light, but they keenly felt that there seemed to be a force swimming in the air. Then they watched the fake Ahua's body disappear little by little.
At the same time, a bright look gradually appeared in Lan Sinian's sapphire eyes, making those beautiful eyes look like real sapphires falling into the water, reflecting a dazzling and sharp light!
His consciousness cleared, and as a flood of memories flooded his mind, he felt a deep connection between him and Changqing. He couldn't sense Changqing's thoughts, but he had a very clear understanding in his heart: as long as this person wanted, he would fulfill it for him, not only psychologically, but also physically. His body could actually be directly controlled by Changqing!
But at this moment, he had no mind to care about these things. When he saw his beloved lying on the ground, his heart felt as if it had been stabbed by a knife. He no longer cared about fighting with others. A huge stream of water pushed Shen Hai and others away, and he strode towards Qin Changqing naked.
"Honey! What's wrong with you?!" Qin Changqing felt his vision go dark and his body could no longer support him. He fell to the ground as soft as noodles. But before he fell, he was gently picked up by someone.
The familiar embrace and the favorite scent belonged only to Lan Sinian. Qin Changqing felt a surge of ecstasy in his heart. He reached out and grabbed the person who was holding him, and said in surprise, "Sinian, are you recovered?"
"Yeah." Lance nodded gently. Looking at his pale face, sweaty and exhausted, he felt the pain in his heart spread like a poison, quickly spreading throughout his body. Waves of painful cries came from every limb. He protected the beloved child he cherished in his heart, but he was being tortured so miserably. And it was all because of him...
"Honey, I'm sorry." Lan Sinian's eyes were red. He closed his eyes and gently kissed his honey on the forehead.
Seeing Lan Sinian wake up with his own eyes, Qin Changqing was filled with joy. He even felt that his stomachache was gone and his body was not so tired anymore. He looked at him eagerly with his eyes which were a little cold originally, and Lan Sinian's heart softened like cotton.
The two hugged each other tightly, their gazes fixed on each other so tenderly and sweetly that there was no room for a third person.
The two of them felt sweet in their hearts, but Ulysses did not. He looked at them in disbelief and cried out, "How could this happen!" As he spoke, he remembered something and took out a red bead from an ornament on his body. He squeezed it hard, and the red bead broke. It was obviously not a real bead, but just a ball that seemed to be made of dough!
He looked up at Lan Sinian in a daze, then suddenly looked at Qin Changqing, his eyes filled with a huge wave of emotion. "He, he gave the red bead to you back then?! He actually lied to me for ten years!"
Qin Changqing had no idea what the red beads he was talking about were, and looked puzzled, but Lan Sinian had already woken up at this time, and he was too lazy to pay attention to him and look at him again.
Lan Sinian's eyes turned cold again at this time, but he was not looking at his dear one. Instead, he looked at Ulysses with that cold and sarcastic look. He sneered without giving him any mercy: "I couldn't give him the black bead on my body at that time, so of course I gave him the other bead, which I don't know what it was for, as a token of love. If I don't leave the thing that grows on my body to him, why would I keep it for you? When you took me back to the empire, you asked me for that thing. Of course I didn't have it, so I rolled a mud ball and dyed it a little red. Doesn't it look similar? However, if you weren't worried that the red bead was not safe, and if you hadn't cast the "hypnosis inducement" on me to control me, I probably wouldn't have been able to deceive you at that time. After all, I didn't know what the red bead was for." After that, he gave him a smile that was so infuriating and blinding that it could kill him.
Qin Changqing climbed on his shoulders and turned his face back in dissatisfaction. Why are you smiling so brightly at others!
Ulysses's face suddenly became extremely ugly. He threw the thing in his hand to the ground, but before he could lose his temper, he heard Lansnian's voice saying in a deep voice: "I heard that you dared to set your sights on my son. I think you are tired of living!" As his voice fell, the deafening sound of the rapidly rushing waves of the sea echoed in the empty castle!
