Chapter 154: The Proud Queen

Translator: Kingbao Editor: DarkGem

Yao Si was entangled by another woman...

Regardless of how she explained, Lian Yu was bent on following her, her eyes blindingly bright. There was no way that Yao Si could reject her either as any harshness was met with an ever-ready torment of tears.

“Sister Lian Yu, listen to me, my ability is... a little unique.” Yao Si inhaled deeply, preparing to expose everything, letting her know that her current infatuation was only due to her ability.

“You mean you have the ability to let someone fall for you at first sight?” Lian Yu stilled.

“That’s right.” She nodded vigorously. “Your attraction is only due to the influence of my ability. It will disappear after a while and you won’t be feeling this way anymore.”

The queen frowned, trying to process her words. “Then... the two guys that were following you around, were they also affected by your ability?”

“Not really! Lu Chen is my employee, and Mu— Mo Xuan.” Yao Si corrected herself instantly, before his real name slipped out. “He’s my guider so he isn’t with me because of my ability.”

“Which means... you only directed your ability at me?”

“Mmh, mmh, mmh.”

“That’s great!”

“What?”

The queen’s eyes brightened as she reached forward to grab onto Yao Si’s hands. “As expected, Sisi, you are interested in me after all, even to the point of using your ability on me... That’s great, since we feel the same way, shall we register our marriage?”

“Eh...”

What logic is that? How did that become your main point?

Eh, this is getting increasingly difficult.

“Forget it, we can talk about it next time.” Yao Si massaged her temples. “Er... Can you explain the fog out there?” The fog that had clouded the entire planet didn’t look normal at all.

“That.. It comes from...” The queen went still, twiddling her fingers as guilt inched onto her face. “I made the heavenly tree open the limitation for the Rainbow Pond so...”

“Rainbow Pond’s limitation?” What did that mean?

“This planet is called Heavenly Planet because of the Rainbow Pond.” The queen hesitated slightly before explaining everything in great detail.

Basically, Heavenly Planet wasn’t originally like it was now. It was a planet engulfed in fog from from the Rainbow Pond, which made it seem mystical and brought about its name. Rainbow Pond originated from the planet’s core, its water possessing a rare chemical that could unleash one’s potential in terms of an ability’s mental strength.

It was a natural stimulant, which explained its popularity. However, if one were to stay too long in the fog, they would be trapped in their own world. The only ones who could defend against the fog were heavenly sylvian which came from the trees. They were able to restrict the fog to a certain region, preventing it from spreading, which led to the success of the Heavenly Planet.

“So... you mean to say... Mu— Mo Xuan and the others are stuck in the hallucination caused by the fog?”

“Mmh.” The queen raised her head with a hint of anger. “It was to find you Sisi... He was at fault for bringing you away, and even destroying my flower of the heavenly tree. If I hadn’t found the heart of the tree in time, you wouldn’t have been able to see me.”

“...” So it’s his fault? “When do you intend to release them?”

“I’m not going to!” The queen cocked her head to the side, throwing a childlike tantrum. “It wasn’t easy for me to keep those bastards out. If he were released, he would definitely snatch you away! Isn’t it recorded in history books that all female side characters are there to snatch the male lead? I won’t ever make that mistake!”

Who ever told you to learn from those novels... Besides, how is Mu Xuan a woman?

?|?|_

“Forget it, I’ll save them myself.” Yao Si turned to leave the room .

“Sisi!” Lian Yu stilled slightly before reaching out haphazardly to take hold of her. “You-you like that bastard so much? In what way am I not good enough? Why are you going to him?”

“Lian Yu...” Yao Si took a deep breath. “I apologize for destroying your aircraft, but that was only because you prevented us from leaving. Mu— Mo Xuan is my guider, and if you investigated bloodlings, you should be aware what a guider means to a bloodling, right?

“I am honored to have gained your attention, but regardless of whether the love is due to my ability or your heart, I’m sorry, I don’t like you. Not the least bit. But this has nothing to do with Mu— Mo Xuan. I would never leave him in a pinch, even if he didn’t require my assistance.”

Lian Yu stilled, her gaze darkening gradually, her excitement dissipating as she looked stricken.

Yao Si didn’t have time, so she sighed once more before leaving the room. She had to get to Mu Xuan. Just as she left the room, Lian Yu started to sob.

“It isn’t that way, it’s here.” She suddenly lifted her finger toward the other side of the pond with a pout, “The Rainbow Pond has hallucination inducing effects. Even if he really is inside, you won’t be able to see him unless you reactivate the restrictions. If you really insist on going, I-I can bring you there.”

“... Thank you.” Yao Si heaved a sigh of relief while heading out.

“Let me make this clear,” the queen added. “I’m only doing this because of you Sisi. That bastard ruined my flower of the heavenly tree, and you should know its importance to me. I’m not going to let him off easily, but-but if you were to get angry and hate me because of that, wouldn’t it make it too easy for him? I will never let myself down like that!”

Was she trying to forcefully save her pride?

Yao Si sighed once more, the anger for being separated from Mu Xuan gradually fading away. “Yes, yes, yes! Dear queen, you are wise.” I shall reward you with compliments.

“Obviously!” The aves lifted her head arrogantly, her eyes brightening. “Does that mean you are starting to fall for me?”

“No!”

“... Alright!” She fumed, turning to walk ahead. “Let’s go.”

“Just one thing...”

“Have you changed your mind about marrying me?”

“No.” Yao Si’s lips twitched, and she pointed to the woman’s lower half. “That... could you first put something on?” Your towel fell off a long time ago... Didn’t you feel airy?

“...”

A second later.

“Ahh!”

A shrill cry pierced the air...

Yao Si suddenly had an impulse to pray for Lian Yu.

(???)

–

Lian Yu had mentioned that the restriction was in the centre of the house. She bypassed it and headed toward a silver pathway through the surroundings which seemed to have become much foggier than before.

“It’s right in front.” Lian Yu pointed ahead as she explained, “Only the heavenly sylvians are able to enter there.”

Yao Si stopped, discovering a transparent light wall that kept her out. She wouldn’t have noticed it unless she inspected the place closely.

“Wait for me here, I’ll be back after I turn the switch on.” Lian Yu took two steps before turning back worriedly. “You must wait over here.”

Only after repeated reassurances did Lian Yu leave. Right away, her figure disappeared into the fog.

Yao Si had assumed that she needed some time, but less than two minutes later, a frantic shout sounded. Lian Yu who had just entered came flying out as though struck deeply.

Yao Si reached out instinctively to catch her, but was struck by her weight and collapsed onto the ground.

It hurts... I’m going to be flattened...

“What happen—”

Just as she was about to ask, Lian Yu bolted upright, her face pale. “The heavenly tree’s... heart is in trouble!”

What?

Yao Si stilled as a distinct snap could be heard in the distance. Turning, she inhaled deeply at the sight.

F*ck!

(? o ?)

Dear queen, what exactly did you just do?
