Chapter 1326: The Queen Returns
She remembered.
She was Ah Luo, the one and only queen of the Skatana Planet. There was no doubt.
The pulsation of that planet was engraved in the depths of her ancient soul. Although she was far away from the mother planet for an unknown number of trillions of light-years, she could still feel the weak pulsation of the planet that had been blown up to pieces. That was the unique link between the queen and the mother planet, and the only sign that the queen was recognized.
She didn’t know why Gu Jinxiu mistakenly thought that she was Ah Luo, but it didn’t matter.
In the eyes of the awakened queen, the humble human was not worth mentioning at all.
Xia Yingluo moved her body. The thin silk pajamas on her body rippled like water with her movements. The boiling pain in her blood before the coma had disappeared and was replaced by an unprecedented sense of strength. Mysterious energy slowly flowed along her limbs and bones. Every cell in her body seemed to be reborn wherever it passed. She stood up, and the shackles that had locked her tightly broke and fell to the ground, broken apart. She was not surprised when she looked at the metal fragments all over the ground. In fact, her strength had gradually increased after she had skin contact with Wei Lingnan. Now the energy of the queen in her body was awakened, it was easy to break away from those metal shackles thing. She could now escape.
She lowered her head and manipulated the energy in the ancient way in her memory. Ten nails evolved at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, becoming more than three inches sharp, and flashing metallic cold under the white laboratory lights. The claws of the Skatana Planet were the best weapons and were indestructible. She raised her hand and was about to destroy the magnetic lock at the door when suddenly, she thought of something and slowly collected her ten sharp nails.
“Wei Lingan,” she whispered to herself, “didn’t you want to find me? Impossible.”
Since the man had no eyes and was about to put her to death for another woman, there was nothing to talk about between them. She wouldn’t let him find out her identity. Let him guard his Gu Jinxiu for a lifetime. Her heart for him had already died, and she just wanted to go back to her family to lead a peaceful life.
With a sneer, Xia Yingluo looked at the broken shackles on the ground with a pair of sharp eyes, and the unusual cracks in the shackles implied having been broken by violence. Xia Yingluo urged the energy in her body. An invisible storm burst around her. Only a moment later, those broken shackles turned into dust, evaporated in the air, and disappeared.
In this way, Wei Lingnan wouldn’t find out about her awakening.
She lifted her wrist, and there was a simple style bracelet on it, but she couldn’t see what material it was made of.
In the violent storm of energy just now, the shackle had turned into powder, but this bracelet was safe and sound—this was the one that Xia Moyan had given her to defend herself.
She opened the bracelet in accordance with the method her uncle had taught her, and the silver metal glowed with a wave of water-like luster. In the slightly twisted air, it quickly liquefied and merged, and soon formed a new form. A sharp dagger. She held that dagger. Her combat instinct from billions of years ago coincided with her father’s teachings of more than a decade after reincarnation. She effortlessly found the most tricky angle and cut the electromagnetic lock of the cage. There was no alarm system.
She was as light as a cat and walked out of the laboratory.
There was a long corridor outside the laboratory. The researchers were already off work, and no one could be seen at this time.
But she was stunned by the scene at the two corridors—there were many identical laboratories, each with a huge transparent glass wall, and behind the glass wall was an ugly monster… it was different from humans and creatures from the Skatana Planet. They looked like freaks left after the failure of the experiment, some were terrible half-human, half-beasts, some had several heads, and some were constantly flowing with pus and blood… even through the most complete soundproof glass of the facility, she could hear their painful howling.
What were these?
Were they all failures of Wei Lingnan’s experiments?
Xia Yingluo resisted her nausea. If her experiment failed too, would she also become like this?
Unwilling to look any further, she quickened her pace.
Behind the glass wall, many monsters found her. They rushed to her frantically, hitting the glass wall heavily and snarling in anger, as if they would tear her apart anytime and anywhere. Xia Yingluo frowned. She was worried that the monster’s restlessness would attract the guards, so she said coldly, “Shut up.”
Invisible energy waves spread out.
The monsters were dull at first, then, as if they saw something in awe, they stepped back in unison, shivering in the ground.
They went quiet or respectful—waiting for her to pass.
This was the coercion of the Queen.
These monsters more or less had the genes of the Skatana Planet. According to the rules of the Skatana Planet, the weak had to obey the strong. All living beings would have to involuntarily bow their heads to the queen with disregard for wisdom and loyalty. That was the most instinctive and primitive awe of power.
Xia Yingluo passed the corridor calmly without looking at them again.
Once she was out of the corridor, she found that it was the depths of the base, but it wasn’t difficult to escape. She had been here several times, and she was very familiar with the guard situation, plus the memories of the queen who had battled hundreds of millions of years were back in her mind. This small base was completely unable to trap her.
Easily, she returned to the ground.
She hurried home.
Everyone in the Li family was gathered in a conference room. In the middle was a huge three-dimensional sand table with the structure of the Wei Family underground base.
Xia Yingluo stood by the door and heard Li Lei setting up the task. “I’ll sneak in from here. Shaohui, be at my back. Xiao Rui, you are in charge of communication outside and are to stand by.”
“I’m going too!” Li Rui’s voice was very excited. “Yingluo has been missing for so many days. I will go to the base with you to save her! God knows if the dog Wei Lingnan abused her. If more people go in, there’s more insurance!”
“Be good, Xiao Rui!” Li Lei lowered his voice.
“I’m going!” Li Rui really got on the bar with him. “Dad, I know you don’t like my three-legged cat effort, but I’m not as weak as you think! I’ve learned a lot in these years! If you don’t believe me, let’s go out for a fight now and see if I’m qualified enough to go in with you! I’m going to save my sister. I can’t let her remain trapped inside!”
There was a burst of warmth in Xia Yingluo’s heart. After awakening her memory hundreds of millions of years ago, she thought she had changed back to that ruthless Queen Ah Luo, but when she heard these words from her brother, her eyes reddened indisputably.
