Chapter 176: Don’t Even Think About Living

[Host…] Looking at the Extermination Armor General, who bore a four-point resemblance to a certain monster, 089 was completely dumbfounded and couldn’t believe it: [The person we awakened according to the female superior’s instructions is…?!]

No wonder it was said that awakening the Extermination Armor General’s consciousness would expose all the bad things the Saintess had done.

It turned out that this person was Xie Ming, the monarch of Alloster, also Xie Jinsheng’s father.

But how did the female superior know all this?

Yu An gradually had an absurd, uncertain thought in his mind.

Since Jinsheng’s father is here, where is Jinsheng’s mother…?

“Heavens! It really is His Majesty!”

The old ministers were tearful with excitement, crowding forward, crying uncontrollably. A few quick-witted elders had more or less understood what had happened and looked at the Saintess with the eyes one would reserve for a madwoman.

She even dared to scheme against His Majesty!

Among them were not a few who had supported her over the years.

When the Saintess saw this scene, the words of pity she had been about to utter suddenly caught in her throat, as if she had been exposed. She couldn’t help but laugh.

Now, she had a little more of a living person’s feel.

She had shed some of the Oscar-winning actress’s white lotus mask.

The red-haired female general, Yi Yan, who was in the corner, already knew the Saintess’s personality like the back of her hand. After being startled by what had happened, she quickly recovered and said,

“On my order, protect His Majesty and take down the Saintess—”

“Let’s see who dares to touch me!” Ren Qingyan’s eyes were terrifyingly red as she coldly retorted, as if she were about to run wild at any moment.

But a moment later, her gaze swept over Xie Ming, this high and mighty monarch.

Ren Qingyan wiped the ash from her face, maintaining a bit of inexplicable dignity, squeezed out a perfect smile, and slowly stood up. The words she spoke were eerily intimate:

“Ming-ge, when did you wake up? Have you gotten used to being by my side these years? I talk to you so much every night, do you still remember…”

089 shuddered: [My god, Host, this Saintess is probably a yandere.]

Yu An inwardly agreed with the system’s words.

Taking advantage of the Saintess’s emotional breakdown, he quietly retreated to a safe corner in the shadows.

But awakening Xie Ming did not mean that his mission was over.

There was still the most important thing—

That was to find the last key!

Given the Saintess’s obsessive personality, this secret room used to imprison Xie Ming was probably the most important place. The key must be hidden here.

“089, quickly find out where the key is.”

[Okay.]

The two quickly searched.

And at this moment, the main event in the center was still unfolding—

“Ren Qingyan.” Xie Ming’s voice was hoarse, obviously because he hadn’t spoken for many years, but his majesty was undiminished, “I have never loved you. I already told you that myself, back then.”

It was only because she had just lost her father at that time and her family’s foundation was unstable that he did not announce the termination of their engagement.

But he never expected that Ren Qingyan would use this title to develop her own power behind the scenes. Perhaps what she wanted was not him, but the entire Alloster Dynasty.

“Yes, Ming-ge, so it was wrong from the start,” Ren Qingyan looked at him, “Why don’t you love me, and why did you want to break off the engagement? You don’t know how much I suffered all these years to become your queen. I couldn’t even be myself. I had to measure even how I drank water and ate with a ruler.”

Why did Xie Ming want to get rid of her with a simple statement about breaking off the engagement? Was everything she had suffered for the position of queen all these years a joke?

So, in order to get revenge, she turned Xie Ming into the Extermination Armor General, born only to protect her, just to see how this cold tentacled monster king would bow his head to her day after day.

If there was anything she regretted,

It was that she became bad too late. She actually let Xie Ming leave Alloster and go to Earth, and then meet that woman of unknown origin on the way…

“If it wasn’t for Lan Yin,” the Saintess smiled obsessively, wanting to get closer to Xie Ming, but was blocked by a blade. She laughed crazily:

“If it wasn’t for her, you, Xie Ming, and the entire Alloster race, would have been mine sooner or later! She stole you, stole everything that should have belonged to me…”

“It’s not that she stole me, but that I never belonged to you.” Xie Ming coldly interrupted, “Likewise, you don’t belong to me either, because in my eyes, you have never been an object.”

He wanted to break off the engagement only to let Ren Qingyan be herself again, so she wouldn’t have to be trapped as an appendage of the royal power.

Not only that, but he also wanted to reform all the feudal rules. Their Alloster race had always lived in the ocean and yearned for freedom. Why would they need these feudal systems to trap them?

She clearly didn’t want to become a sacrifice for royal marriage from the beginning, but in the end, she imprisoned herself in the shackles of power.

The elders behind him couldn’t help but feel a pang of sadness and sigh inwardly when they heard this.

Indeed, their race was small and naturally loved the vast world, but at some point, they gradually became feudal, with a large number of rules and regulations.

They confined themselves to the disputes of the court.

They forgot that the birth of the country was only to better protect the survival and freedom of the Alloster people.

Compared to endless debates and verbal battles,

Arguing about whether to attack Earth, whether to release infections, whether to infiltrate the human high command… a series of things.

They would rather swim in the ocean with these old friends.

Yu An listened and couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, thinking that things going against one’s wishes was the norm.

He squeezed behind a few rows of bookshelves.

[Host, I’ll scan these places to see if there’s anything.] The system started typing frantically on the keyboard.

“Tell me,” Xie Ming stepped down from the platform step by step and asked in a deep voice, “Where did Yin go?”

“Lan Yin? Of course she’s dead. I killed her myself.” The Saintess’s thinking hadn’t changed. She couldn’t seem to hear anything now. She smiled with a twisted expression, thinking of something:

“Ming-ge, do you still remember the condition I made back then? I said that if you came to my side, I could let her go. I did let her go, but I poisoned her. She’s already a pile of bones now.”

“Saintess, you actually dared to kill the queen…!”

The ministers simply couldn’t believe it.

In fact, some of the ministers inside didn’t believe that the Saintess had done bad things, because she usually seemed so kind.

It wasn’t until this sharp tone and twisted smile that they realized how terrible and dark the person they had supported was!

“Hahaha, why are you looking at me with that expression? Can’t imagine it? Guess how my father died.” The Saintess continued to laugh:

“And who released the infection hundreds of years ago? Can humans create that kind of thing? Ah? Whenever you say that humans are so clever and can create such a terrible thing, do you know how much I want to say, ‘I got this thing’?”

She actually revealed it on the spot!

Several old ministers fainted from anger.

[Is the Saintess crazy?] 089 felt a chill in his heart.

Yu An suddenly stopped in his tracks.

“Not good, she wants to die together.”

If he guessed correctly, the key should be in the Saintess’s hand at this moment!

Sure enough, as soon as Yu An reacted and walked out from behind the bookshelves,

He saw the Saintess holding something in her hand. It was the key. Like a madwoman, she said,

“Then don’t even think about living!”
