Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal

There was someone there, and it was a woman! To be able to appear here at a time like this, could it be…

The leader Carter spoke of?!

“Her Majesty, Queen of Blades.” When they heard her voice, all the Zerg Knights stood together and bowed their heads as one. “Sky Knight Carter, leading the Sky Knight regiment greets Your Majesty, the Queen of Blades.”

Queen of Blades!

Hong Dali and the others sucked in a sharp breath and fell silent. Their hearts sank.

This Queen of Blades must be the leader Carter mentioned. She had come personally on the strongest Zerg, the Golden Emperor Beetle. What was her aim?! Were Zhang Yi and little Bai Hechou worth that much trouble?

Soon, a small figure appeared in front of everyone.

It was a woman, but it was not an ordinary woman.

Her body seemed to be covered by an exoskeleton. On her back was a pair of wings made of bones. The tips of her wings were sharp beyond comparison. They were her wings, and also her weapon. Her hair was made of bone spurs that were jointed and hung flowingly down the back of her head. Her face was her most special feature.

One had to admit that this was a beautiful woman, an extremely beautiful woman. Her features were well-defined and there were red-colored mystical inscriptions on both her cheeks. They shimmered in the light, making her seem mysterious and alluring.

Honestly speaking, Hong Dali had half a mind to kill her with a blast from a wave cannon, but because she had been merciful—Carter was right. If the Golden Emperor Beetle had wanted to kill them, there was no way the people on the carriers could have landed. For the moment, it seemed that the two sides could negotiate. As for the outcome…

Damn, he had nothing to lose, why should he still be afraid of them?

The Queen of Blades descended to the ground.

At this time, there should have been questions to ask, answers to be had, but no one had expected that the first shout of surprise would come from Jiang Qianxue.

“You are… you are Ji Zining!”

After they heard what Jiang Qianxue said, everyone was stunned.

The two of them knew each other?! Jiang Qianxue was acquainted with the Queen of Blades?

“Oh? I did not expect anyone to still know me after such a long time.” The Queen of Blades looked toward the direction of Thunder Angel. “What is your name, young lady?”

“Jiang family, Jiang Qianxue!” Jiang Qianxue said in a serious voice, “Three hundred years ago, you were exiled because you refused to marry. I didn’t expect you to become the leader of the Zerg, the Queen of Blades. How could this be, how could this be?!”

She was Ji Zining, the only woman exiled by the Galaxy Aristocrats three hundred years ago?!

“I remember!” Yin Tianzong shouted, “You are the Ji Zining who won the Gamble of Will and ended up being exiled! No wonder I found your name so familiar! It’s you! You’re alive!”

“God,” Feng Wuzhen yelled, “This world is crazy! How is this possible!”

Everyone was stunned!

This was information overload!

“Haha, it seems that there are quite a few Galaxy Aristocrats here. To think that you still remember me.” The Queen of Blades’ mouth curved up slightly, making her look even more beautiful and alluring. Her cold and beautiful appearance was in no way inferior to that of Li Nianwei and Tang Muxin! It was another type of beauty, a powerful beauty!

The leader of the Zergs, the Queen of Blades!

“It’s a rare opportunity to meet old friends.” The Queen of Blades Ji Zining smiled and said, “In that case, perhaps I can tell you my story. Would you like to hear it?”

“Yes!” Everyone said in unison!

Damn, this was practically the hottest gossip in the history of the Galaxy Aristocrats, who wouldn’t want to hear about it! Even if the two sides were enemies, they still had to satisfy their curiosity first!

Suddenly, the whole desert was silent except for the sound of the wind whistling.

“Three hundred years ago,” Ji Zining said quietly, “there were many people pursuing me. Unfortunately, the arrogance of the Galaxy Aristocrats did not appeal to me at all. How many children who grow up protected and sheltered are able to rise to the occasion when needed? I was not interested in people like that at all.”

“I grew older and had to get married. But at that time, I met him… the one I was willing to love for the rest of my life.

“His name was Ye Hantian, a brilliant and talented genius! He was only 30 years old when he became a double Honorary Aristocrat, a black and white-level Honorary Aristocrat! He was only one step away from a true-blue Galaxy Aristocrat!

“At this time, the Elders found out about my love for him.

“Women from the Beta Star can never be impregnated by a man from another tribe! I already knew, but I didn’t care. I only knew that I loved him and he loved me…”

When she said that, the expression on her face softened—

Three hundred years ago…

Ji Zining was dressed in a beautiful purple gown that flowed over her delicate and slender body. She stood in the wind on the top of the most beautiful cliff on the Silver-blue super-planet. The breeze was light and carefree.

It was a warm and beautiful evening.

“Zining, you are here admiring the scenery again.” Ye Hantian, wearing a black and white Honorary Aristocrat cloak, walked up to Ji Zining’s back and gently gathered her into his arms.

The beautiful and elegant Ji Zining and the amazingly talented Ye Hantian were a match made in heaven.

Ji Zining was extremely beautiful, gentle, generous and understanding. Ye Hantian was handsome and dashing, politically astute and highly skilled in martial arts!

They had fallen in love shortly after they met.

“Hantian…” Ji Zining closed her eyes slowly and rested her head on Ye Hantian’s broad and sturdy shoulders. She murmured, “I’m scared. The Galaxy Aristocrats will never allow their women to marry outside the tribe. It is an iron rule, and no one can go against it. Hantian, can you promise me one thing?”

“I understand.” Ye Hantian sighed softly and said, “Unfortunately, I love you. Perhaps this love has to be proven with my life, but I am willing. The only thing I am worried about now is my home planet…”

“Yes.” Ji Zining shook her head helplessly, a teardrop sliding down her cheek. She said, “Rules and iron rules are all rigid. How can they be suitable for those of us who want to live better? Hantian, do you know? I have more than once wanted to give up the identity of Galaxy Aristocrat just to wander to the ends of space with you. Unfortunately, I know that even if I stop being a Galaxy Aristocrat, I will not be able to escape the surveillance of others. One day, they will find out about us.”

“Don’t think so much.” Ye Hantian wiped off Ji Zining’s tears gently and said, “If it doesn’t work, we can find a way to apply to join the war against the Zerg and then try to forge our death certificates. That should work, right?”

“Hee, your idea is not bad. I didn’t think of that!” After listening to Ye Hantian’s words, Ji Zining was instantly excited. “When that time comes, we will fight against the Zerg and sacrifice ourselves heroically. Then, we will find a remote place to hide and then we should be able to live happily for the rest of our lives. Even if we can’t have children, we can adopt a few. With your ability, there should be nothing we cannot handle!”

“That’s right.” Ye Hantian perked up and laughed. “When that time comes, we will have a large brood of children and they will all be our darlings, okay?”

“Okay!”

Unfortunately, they were not happy for long when the events took a turn for the worse.

One morning after it rained, when Ji Zining went out for her morning stroll to enjoy the beauty of nature, as usual, she met someone she did not expect to.

It was a person hidden in the shadows. He was wearing a hat and his head was lowered. She could not see his face clearly. However, what he said sent shivers down her spine.

“Ye Hantian is dead and his home planet has been destroyed.”

“What?!” Ji Zining was shocked!

Ye Hantian was dead? How could that be?! He was so talented. Even Ji Zining was unable to gauge how high his ability was! And he was dead?!

“Impossible! It’s impossible!” Ji Zining cried out. “You’re lying! How can he be dead?!”

“The Nine Sha Luos were all activated. He might be a rare talent that came by once in a hundred years, but unfortunately, he’s still a little too weak to win against the Nine Sha Luos.”

“Nine Sha Luos…” Ji Zining heard these words and could no longer hold on. Both her eyes lost all life. “The Elders sent out the Nine Sha Luos to deal with us?”

“Galaxy Aristocrats cannot marry someone from another tribe. It did not have to come to this.” That person said gravely, “We thought you would change your mind, but Ye Hantian applied to go fight against the Zerg swarm! Humph, pretending to be dead after fighting the Zerg, it was not possible that we would not have thought of something like that. So, the Elders decided to erase all signs of Ye Hantian’s existence.”

As she recounted her story, Ji Zining’s tears rolled down her face. “After that, I asked everyone I could about it. Things indeed happened as they were told to me. The Elders had really sent out the Nine Sha Luos and executed Hantian. Even Hantian’s home planet was completely erased from existence…”

The story was short but touching.

At this point in Ji Zining’s story, everyone was silent. There were a few women in tears.

Such a beautiful love was really moving.

What Ji Zining had experienced made everyone lose all feelings of enmity for her. She was really pitiful. The love of her life was dead just like that, and there was nothing she could do about it. No one would feel good after experiencing something like that.

Ji Zining brushed off her tears gently and continued, “After that, the Elders invoked the Gamble of Will. The man they found for me was not bad. He did not even mind the fact that I had already given myself to Hantian. But I had already given my heart to Hantian, how could I marry him?

“He might have realized what my desires were, so he made a bet with easier terms to make it easy for me. In the end, I won and was exiled. As for him, he married a woman he did not love…”
