Chapter 2230: 25.120 Lone Black Star - Eerie Smile

Before reaching the empire, the God of Destruction and the Sovereign God of Void and Darkness had once again appeared before the royal family on the main spaceship. Everyone was caught off guard as the space within the space vessel had fragmented and was frightened by the scene that they stood away from the crack in the space.

"Your highnesses! Please retreat! This is strange!"

"Is it a black hole?"

"That is not even a hole? It’s a space fragmented like a mirror."

"Back away!" The Grand Duke had stood in front of the crown prince and crown princess and even pulled his wife behind him.

However, the crown princess, Ye Caoyun, recognized this power as something his master can control. As expected, a hand came out of the broken space and ripped it open. Finally the face of the Sovereign God of Void and Darkness appeared together with the God of Destruction.

Lord Hei Anjing smiled playfully and said, "Hello~, before you guys enter the empire there is something you must know first."

The crown princess, crown prince, the grand duke and the duchess clasped their hands before their ancestors while the other soldiers had fallen on their knees.

"We greet the Ancestors!"

"We the soldiers greet the First Emperor and the First Empress!"

Lord Ye Xiajie said, "Stand. Be at ease."

"We only come here to remind you of something. The Zerg King and Zerg Queen who invaded the empire, before coming to your land, they ate the third prince and... his unique ability to control people through sound had been passed to them," said Lord Hei Anjing.

When everyone heard what their ancestor had just informed them, their faces turned stern. This meant that the enemy they are going to face not only possessed a strength that can match a demigod or even more powerful, there is also the fact that this eerie ability which was originally owned by the third prince had been taken over by the nemesis of the human race.

The God of Destruction added, "Also your emperor and empress are alive. They are in the royal library’s forbidden zone. There is a surprise waiting for you when you meet them."

This good news was something they’ve never expected. Just the fact that the empress and emperor were alive was the greatest news they heard. However, the last sentence that was mentioned to them left them anxious.

The Sovereign God of Void and Darkness said, "The enemies at the empire right now weren’t the main power of the insect race. You should be careful. We will not be able to help unless the Fallen Ancient God appears. You have ascended now, you will not lose to some demigods, right? Also... They also have gods within their ranks."

"We’ve said everything that needs to be saved. The rest will need to be resolved by you," said Lord Hei Anjing with his usual mischievous smile before disappearing. "See you again later."

Yet upon seeing this smile, Ye Caoyun frowned instinctively. He didn’t like that smile his master had shown them before they took their leave. He felt something hidden, almost sinister, was waiting for them to lower their guards and might be something that could harm both him and his lover, the crown prince. Only the crown princess senses something was wrong with the smile of the God of Destruction, however, even though he felt something was wrong, he didn’t know what it was that made him uncomfortable.

The Crown Prince, Ye Qinya asked, "What’s wrong, Yun’er?"

"Qin-ge, did you notice something?" asked the Crown Princess, Ye Caoyun. "Master’s smile is a bit too eerie this time."

"Isn’t Lord Hei’s smile always like that?" Ye Qinya said, looking bewildered why his lover is asking such a strange thing. "Is there a problem with his smile?"

Ye Caoyun lowered his head and narrowed his eyes. The uneasiness in his heart didn’t fade and instead strengthened now that he had heard the response of his beloved. It was as if this uncomfortable feeling was something only he was noticing.

He said, "It’s nothing. Don’t worry."

"Are you sure nothing is wrong, Yun’er?" asked the crown prince for the second time.

The crown princess answered honestly and said, "I am not sure. But we should focus more on reclaiming the empire first. We should be careful of that strange ability the zerg race got from the Third Prince."

"What should we do right now?" the crown prince asked.

Ye Caoyun responded, "Save your parents first."

"Alright. I will listen to you," said Ye Qinya as his smile was more doting than usual.

The grand duke and the duchess who were watching at the side felt they were fed with countless dogfood, so sweet that it was coying. The grand duke’s face was dark as if he wanted to butcher the pig who stole his prized cabbage. Unexpectedly, this pig is none other than his biological nephew. Even though Ye Caoyun is not related to them by blood, in their hearts the crown princess is no different than their real son.

"Even if you glare at your own nephew, you cannot beat him up or dage will beat you up," The duchess, Lord Consort Mo Jing whispered to his dark faced husband. There was an entertained smile on the corner of his lips when he said these words.

The Grand Duke, Lord Ye Jie snorted, "If he truly harms our son, I will beat him up even if he is our nephew!"

The smile on Lord Mo Jing’s lips suddenly fades as he said, "But I also have a bad feeling..."

"Does this have something to do with the First Empress smiling? Our son mentioned it as well just now. Is there something wrong with his majesty smiling like that," asked the grand duke.

The Duchess had no other choice but to explain. "It has already been a forgotten family history of our Mo Clan. Have you heard about the legend of the Mo Clan, husband?"

"...Are you talking about your clan’s curse?" With a worried frown on his forehead, "But didn’t that curse long ago disappear, the last one to have it was you but didn’t we get resolved now?"

The curse of the Mo Clan. Every world or even Vearth, the Mo Clan is the same. They were all born with a slight feminine look. The more feminine one is, the stronger the Mo Clan is. Why do you think that the most powerful ones in the Mo Family are the God of Destruction and the Sovereign God of life and death? These two gods are considered the most powerful in the Mo Clan and these two gods had the same similarity. Both possessed androgynous beauty and unimaginable strength. There is actually an unsaid rule that involves the Mo Clan in Vearth.

"In the Clan of Mo, there is a saying that the more beautiful, the more dangerous they are," said the duchess, Lord Mo Jing.

The Mo Clan’s members had one common thing within the family, they were born expressionless but this didn’t mean they are emotionless. Their emotions were only given to the other half he had chosen. There is nothing else for the others and that is also the reason why they remain to choose the highest one.

The duchess added, "According to my clan’s history, there is someone from our bloodline who was cursed like the rest of the family. The difference between this person and the other clan members of the family, is his strong will and heavenly defying talent. What made it worse is that he can control his expression to look like a normal person without defects on him."

The grand duke didn’t like to hear that the duchess had called himself and everyone from the Mo Clan, as humans with some defects.

"You are not defective! Do not say these words anymore," said Lord Ye Jie.

Lord Mo Jing said, "Alright don’t get angry. I won’t say those words anymore.," said the crown princess.

The grand duke asked, "So, what is it that you and Yun’er had noticed? Is there truly something wrong with the ancestor?"

"Nothing is wrong with the first princess. He is normal like that, what we meant is that he is smiling. In short, either there is something in the empire that angered him or second, he found it interesting," said the duchess. His face turned serious. "Something that can catch the attention of someone from the Mo Clan is never normal. Maybe there is indeed a hidden danger in the empire. We should make our preparations."

"Don’t worry. I will keep that in mind!" said the grand duke.

The crown princess added, "Father, remember it with your heart. Something that can catch the attention of my master means whatever that thing is, it’s definitely more powerful and much more dangerous.

"We are about to descend on the planet," said the crown prince. "As soon as we landed, we must secure a land where all of us can relax."

Now that all preparations had been made the crown prince, crown princess, the grand duke and the duchess had all decided to finally returned to the Empire. Of course, they need to descend to the land without the Zerg race noticing their arrival. This is so they can easily sneaked into the ruined main city of the empire and head to the location where the Imperial Palace is supposed to be located. The Imperial Palace had also become ruins after the invasion had happened.
