Chapter 1372 - The Queen's Food
Chapter 1372: The Queen’s Food
In the crowd.
Xia Yingluo’s breathing was getting more and more difficult, and her blood was boiling like lava. There was a faint clamor for every cell that wanted to break through her body. She tried her best to suppress it, but she couldn’t stop it anymore. A huge scream beyond the human hearing instantly swept the entire wedding scene. With her body as the center, the golden-green light invisible to the naked eye raged like a rocket. Nearby, the champagne tower, colorful balloons, and bouquets exploded at the same time, and countless fragments wrapped in the air and blasted away.
“What!”
There were screams everywhere, and the guests panicked, trying to escape.
Wei Lingnan’s vow was interrupted. He subconsciously turned his head and saw Xia Yingluo’s thin body falling softly among the crowd. Jiang Yu, who was helping her, exclaimed, “Yingluo!”
The golden-green light spread, the explosion continued, and chaos ensued. Wei Lingnan ran towards Xia Yingluo without thinking, and no matter how Gu Jinxiu called from behind, he did not turn back.
He came to her, crouched down and held her wrist. “Yingluo!”
Xia Yingluo’s face was as thin as gold paper, and the energy explosion like boiling lava made her squirm about in pain. She opened her dry lips and breathed with difficulty, with nothing in her sight until his handsome and familiar face came into view.
Eat him! Eat him! Eat him…!
Voices from all over the world shouted in her mind.
A ripple of gold and green water fluttered around her. She couldn’t think, nor did she know where the strength came from. Her withered hands grabbed his hand, and he was subdued by just one move. The position of the two was flipped, and she pressed down on him, bowed her head, and bit the aorta of his neck!
Wei Lingnan tried to resist but was so horrified he couldn’t move. The golden-green light invisible to human eyes bound him like branches and veins, tightly entangling his limbs, and allowing her to easily bite his flesh. The golden-green light circulated, weaving a huge cocoon on the open grass, wrapping them both in the tight air.
She knelt and fell on him, biting a piece of meat on the side of his neck like a beast feasting. She raised her head, and her lips that looked like withered roses were covered with red blood.
“Ah Luo…”
Wei Lingnan was shocked by the sight in front of him and could only stutter.
Although he had never experienced it personally, he knew what it was in the memories passed down from generation to generation of the Skatana people—during the wedding night, the queen would eat her husband, and it was in this shape of energy cocoon!
No outside sound could be heard.
All the explosions and the screams of the crowd went away.
Wei Lingnan looked at the cocoons she had formed with shock. It was different from the memories passed down from generation to generation. In his memories, the cocoons weaved by the queen with her own energy were all white, but this one was gold with the World Tree’s glorious green. It was so beautiful and dazzling.
“Ah Luo…?” She tore off the flesh on the side of his neck again, but he felt as if he didn’t even feel the pain, and eagerly asked her, “Are you Ah Luo? Are you Ah Luo?”
However, the eating queen did not answer.
Wei Lingnan tried his best to break away from the control of the energy beams, but those gold-green energy beams were so powerful that he was left powerless. He was not afraid of dying. From the moment he was determined to obtain Ah Luo hundreds of millions of years ago, he had been ready to be eaten by her. But he was afraid that the person who ate him was not Ah Luo. Her energy cocoon was so different. Was it the attack of the World Tree seed in order to draw energy or the drive the queen’s will? Was his Ah Luo Gu Jinxiu or her?
“Answer my question!” He looked at her fiercely, causing the wound on the side of his neck to bleed wildly, making his voice hoarse.
She still didn’t answer. Her eyes were empty, and she just buried her face in his warm flesh and devoured it greedily.
“Ah Luo…” Immediately, his breathing became weak and heavy, and his voice was intermittent. “Is this the end… I have loved you for so many years and chased you… for so many years. In the end, you are before me, but I can’t tell which one is you…”
Her bite stopped slightly, and the hands on his chest began to tremble.
Her sharp white fingertips had sharp nails sticking out, piercing his delicately crafted suit.
“Animalization…” He looked at her sharp, cold fingers and mumbled, “Did you start to beastify by drawing on my energy, or… forget it.” He looked at her metallic and inorganic eyes, laughing at himself. “You won’t answer even if I ask you. Ah Luo, is this my punishment? You won’t let me know who you are until death.”
The man lied on his back on the bloody ground, the golden-green energy beam deeply stuck into his flesh.
He no longer looked at her, and his eyes became as empty as hers. There was a faint, strange resonance in his mouth.
It was just a small resonance.
Her movements became slower, and her sharp nails shuddered and shrank back and forth as if two forces were fighting for the dominance of the body. Xia Yingluo’s mind was still chaotic. In the chaos, she heard the resonance of his hometown tone—
“Farewell, Ah Luo.”
For some reason, she felt a terrible pain in her heart and could not help but want to let go of the man below her.
No, you can’t eat him…
She tried hard to tell herself. In the midst of it, she couldn’t tell why, but only vaguely felt that if she ate this person, she would regret it and be very sad.
But another force in her body was tearing at her.
The World Tree screamed in anger, making her blood boil even more, urging her, forcing her, and making sure she devoured the man under her into her belly. The two energies clashed fiercely, her body trembled violently, her claws fluctuated, and a shocking blood mark was drawn on Wei Lingnan’s chest.
He noticed something was wrong and looked at her in amazement.
Her face was even paler, and the golden-green World Tree’s light came on and off. Suddenly, like the last light from the residual candle in the wind, it suddenly went out. She crooked and fell down softly.
“Yingluo!” Wei Lingnan called.
The golden-green energy beams that bound his limbs disappeared, leaving only the scars that had been deeply stabbed by her, as well as the marks from the neck that had been bitten by her. He didn’t care about his blood, he got up and hugged her into his arms, and called out several times in a row. “Yingluo? Yingluo!”
However, she did not respond at all.
Wei Lingnan stood up holding her, and the golden-green energy cocoon disappeared. The lawn after it had lost its cover was a mess. All the guests and staff members had escaped, and it was quiet and empty.
