Since he had already made a decision, Lin Hanchuan wouldn’t change it.

The reason for the apology was that his emotions had affected the person closest to him, and he shouldn’t vent his negative emotions on someone who cared about him.

Lin Hanchuan identified the problem, and those emotions quickly subsided as if nothing had happened. He continued planning their escape from the palace.

However, in addition to escaping from the palace, Lin Hanchuan had another plan: to rescue some male Zergs who wanted to leave.

During the time when Mo’er was busy preparing to ascend to the throne and become the Zerg Emperor, Lin Hanchuan was also not idle. He had to exercise his body, train his mental power, and deal with frequent probing from Xue Lai.

Amidst his busy schedule, Lin Hanchuan also had time for dating Lin Jianshen.

Compared to the Zerg Emperor Mo’er, Lin Hanchuan was also quite occupied.

So when Mo’er suddenly paid him a visit, Lin Hanchuan even took a few seconds to remember who Mo’er was.

“Tomorrow, I will become the Zerg Emperor, and the entire Zerg Planet will be under my rule.” Mo’er stood in the garden, looking at the delicate little male Zerg before him. His eyes turned deep red, “The Zerg Emperor needs a Zerg Empress.”

“Mhmm,” Lin Hanchuan thought about the upcoming coronation ceremony in his mind and nodded absentmindedly.

Feeling Lin Hanchuan’s indifference, Mo’er pondered for a moment and said, “Are you blaming me for not coming to see you during this time?”

“More or less,” Lin Hanchuan’s gaze fell on the military female Zerg standing beside him, who would be responsible for guarding him tomorrow.

“Now that male and female Zergs are equal, you should change your spoiled and capricious temper.” Mo’er frowned, “Things are different in the palace. If you continue to be like this, how can you be a good Empress?”

Most importantly, Mo’er discovered that he couldn’t bear the male Zerg’s coldness towards him.

Being stared at with loving and passionate eyes for so long, Mo’er had become accustomed to it. But one day, when he lost that gaze, he thought he wouldn’t care. However, he found out that he actually did care.

Feeling irritated by the male Zerg before, Mo’er deliberately kept his distance for a few days during his busy schedule to make the naive little male Zerg know what it meant to be grateful for someone’s kindness. But to his surprise, the male Zerg didn’t show any reaction, and he couldn’t stand it himself, so he came to see him on the eve of his ascension.

Going through tomorrow’s plan in his mind, Lin Hanchuan looked at Mo’er: “Isn’t Xue Lai your Empress?”

In the past few days, Xue Lai has shown off several times overtly and covertly, and he is absolutely sure that he will be with Mo’er after the coronation.

“Xue Lai is Xue Lai, why are you jealous?” The little male’s indifference today had a reason, and Mo’er felt a little complacent. The little male is still with him, and this indifference is just pretending to be indifferent.

Lin Hanchuan stared at Mo’er, the protagonist in the original text, and suddenly asked, “Do you love me?”

Mo’er was taken aback. After a few years had passed, the appearance of the little male Zerg hadn’t changed. He remained beautiful and adorable, with those clear and beautiful emerald eyes that seemed to be soaked in water, still bright and pure. It was as if nothing had changed, yet there was a faint feeling that something had indeed changed.

On the day before their wedding, the little male Zerg had asked Mo’er this question.

Having just come of age, the little male Zerg had wholeheartedly entered into the marriage and obtained a female spouse. He was entirely different from those fickle male Zergs, clean and pure like a newly bloomed lotus flower. Even the blush on his face resembled a shy and tender shadow, the slightly elongated corners of his eyes revealing a touch of alluring charm that didn’t belong to him. He blinked his long eyelashes, and with a reddish tint, his eyes closed and opened in a shy and charming manner as he asked, “Mo’er, do you love me?”

His voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible. If it weren’t for Mo’er’s heightened sensitivity compared to ordinary female Zergs, he might not have heard what the little male Zerg had said.

After waiting for a long time without receiving an answer, the little male Zerg thought he had spoken too fast and too quietly, thinking that the female Zerg hadn’t heard him. He didn’t continue asking and murmured to himself, “You’re going to be my female spouse, how could you not love me? What a silly question I asked.”

Mo’er’s gaze fell on the slender and delicate neck of the little male Zerg. Suddenly, he imagined that he could break that neck with just one hand, so he wouldn’t have to become someone else’s female spouse.

Lost in his thoughts, Mo’er’s cheeks suddenly flushed, and his eyes sharpened intensely. However, all he saw was the little male Zerg’s embarrassed figure fleeing away. The only thing that remained in the air was a sweet thank-you, “Thank you for being willing to love me.”

At that time, Mo’er couldn’t accept being so intimate with a male Zerg. He wiped away the lingering touch on his face with disgust.

Now, the little male Zerg asked the same question again.

But this time, the little male Zerg’s face was devoid of shyness. His gaze was cold and indifferent, without any change in expression. It seemed as if he asked the question merely for the sake of asking, like a piece of transparent and exquisite ice, emanating a sense of coldness.

“Do you love me?” The question left Mo’er uncertain about the answer.

In the past, he would firmly say he didn’t love him, but now he was unsure. If he didn’t love him, why did he get angry when he learned that the other wanted to marry a female servant? Why couldn’t he let go even after becoming the Zerg Emperor?

After waiting patiently for a few minutes, Lin Hanchuan sighed in his heart and didn’t receive Mo’er’s answer. He turned and left.

Mo’er instinctively wanted to stop him, but in the end, he just stood there silently, watching Lin Hanchuan leave.

This incident left Mo’er feeling restless and made him absent-minded during his coronation the next day. The coronation ceremony of the Zerg race was different from that of other races. Mo’er spread his huge wings and hovered over the entire city before finally stopping at the palace.

Mo’er’s powerful pheromones enveloped the entire palace, washing away the scent of the former Zerg Emperor and announcing that he had turned the palace into his territory.

Afterward, he formally ascended the throne and received homage… Sitting on the throne, Mo’er’s eyes turned crimson, and his gaze commanded submission wherever it passed.

From a distance, Mo’er seemed to see a familiar scent drifting away, and his pupils suddenly shrank. Then he slowly relaxed. Little male Zerg was strictly guarded in the palace; how could they leave?

Although he knew this theoretically, Mo’er still had an uneasy feeling. He couldn’t be bothered with the ongoing coronation ceremony and suddenly spread his wings to fly to the side hall.

The scent of the little male Zerg in the side hall was particularly strong. Mo’er’s tightly wound heartstrings relaxed slightly, and then he saw Xue Lai with a pleasantly surprised expression. “Your Majesty, is the coronation ceremony over so soon? Why did you come over?”

“Where is Du Lu?” Mo’er didn’t even look at Xue Lai and asked casually.

He walked straight to the door of the room that belonged to the little male Zerg, and Mo’er cautiously knocked on the door. He suddenly thought that if the little male Zerg was willing, he might invite him to participate in his coronation ceremony in the name of the Empress…

He knocked for quite a while, but there was no response from inside the room.

“Your Majesty?” The smile on Xue Lai’s face had already stiffened. During this period, Mo’er had been indifferent to the little male Zerg, and Xue Lai thought the male Zerg had fallen out of favor. He believed it was his chance, but he didn’t expect that the first thing the Zerg Emperor did after completing the coronation ceremony was to visit this little male Zerg.

Mo’er’s expression changed several times. He was not a gentle female Zerg. Yesterday’s inability to return to the little male Zerg made him feel guilty, so he reluctantly knocked on the door. But now that the other party hadn’t opened the door all this time, he didn’t feel like pretending anymore.

The guard responsible for monitoring promptly handed over the key. Mo’er pushed open the door and entered, expecting to see the little male Zerg obediently sitting on the bed. However, the room was empty.

His subordinates swiftly dispersed to search various rooms, even looking under the bed, but no one dared to speak a word. Even the sound of their search was suppressed.

The bathroom was empty.

The living room was empty.

The garden was empty.

Everywhere was empty.

Mo’er’s pupils turned a bright red. He coldly looked at the guard who was currently on duty and grabbed the guard’s neck with one hand. “Where is my male Zerg?”

The military female struggled to free herself from Mo’er’s grip, but soon stopped struggling. Mo’er personally ended a life, but he didn’t show any emotion. His eagle-like eyes swept around without picking up any lingering pheromone traces in the air.

Suddenly, he smashed into the wall, creating a hole in the entire wall, causing cracks to appear all around.

“Why is there a female Zerg’s pheromone trace?” Mo’er’s voice was hoarse.

No one among the male and female Zergs present dared to speak. Fortunately, someone soon broke the silence. Another military female flew over and spoke loudly, “Your Majesty, the coronation ceremony is not yet complete. You still need to meet with the nobles…”

The coronation ceremony is not complete! Xue Lai sucked in a cold breath. In the history of the Zerg Star, there had never been any interruption of a coronation ceremony. It was absolutely impossible for a Zerg Emperor to interrupt it themselves.

Xue Lai suddenly understood that he had overestimated the little male Zerg’s position in Mo’er’s heart before, but in fact, he had underestimated it.

To make a Zerg Emperor interrupt their own coronation ceremony… Xue Lai lowered his head, feeling extremely fortunate that he had only provoked that little male Zerg before and hadn’t done anything. Otherwise, his fate would have been much worse.

Most importantly, fortunately, the little male Zerg had disappeared. Otherwise, he would never have been able to ascend to the throne. Xue Lai exhaled slowly. The disappearance of that little male Zerg was a good thing for him, and he hoped that the little male Zerg would never appear again.

The military female that had flown over didn’t dare to speak anymore. He looked at Mo’er, who showed his bone wings and faintly revealed his Zerg pattern, and took a step back, quickly kneeling down without saying a word.

In addition to the mental world shattering and being close to death, only when the emotions of a female Zerg reached a certain threshold would their Zerg pattern appear. It could be seen how angry the current Zerg Emperor was, and no Zerg would dare to approach him right now.

“My Empress, Du Lu, has been taken hostage. I order all Zergs to seal off the entire Zerg Star, not allowing anyone to enter or leave. Block the Imperial Palace and the capital city,” Mo’er’s voice was emotionless. “Dig three feet if necessary; find my Empress for me.”

With the Zerg Emperor’s command, the highly united Zerg Star responded within half an hour. Every Zerg in the palace was thoroughly searched, and the sky above the capital city was filled with numerous military females.

Various screens on the roadside displayed wanted posters and pictures of a male Zerg with emerald green eyes. Every few steps, there were billboards with the wanted posters and pictures.

[“Zerg’s rule is truly terrifying,”] Lin Hanchuan couldn’t help but sigh at the sight.

The Zerg race was infamous in the universe because they were extremely powerful and highly united. They plundered resources everywhere, using countless stars to sustain their Zerg Star. Every race hated them deeply, but no race could find the location of the Zerg Star.

The Zerg race had ruled the universe for so many years that wherever they went, no grass would grow. They attracted countless grudges. That’s why when the location of the Zerg Star was exposed in the original text, other races attacked one after another, seeking revenge.

[“Yeah, they are even more obedient than robots,”] 001 chimed in, [“They also understand emotions and thoughts better than robots.”]

Lin Hanchuan and Lin Jianshen walked on the street, passing by countless military females, but none of them stopped because of them.

Lin Jianshen understood the terrifying nature of the Zerg race better than anyone else. They had prepared for everything in advance.

Lin Jianshen was not as tall and sturdy as other female Zergs. His hair was dyed fiery red, and his eyes were disguised as brown, making him look ordinary. As for Lin Hanchuan, he was slightly taller than the average male Zerg, and he dyed his hair and eyes the same color as Lin Jianshen’s.

A female Zerg and a male Zerg walked on the street, appearing as a pair of sibling Zergs.

Androgynous Zergs were beings between male and female Zergs. They couldn’t transform into Zerg form but could allow female Zergs to lay eggs, although the chance of success was extremely low. They could also lay eggs for male Zergs, but again, the chance of success was very low. Moreover, the innate genes of androgynous Zergs determined that their offspring would never be as good as the offspring of female and male Zerg pairs.

Lin Jianshen changed the bone structure of his face using silicone gel to avoid electronic tracking, while Lin Hanchuan used a flytrap he found in the palace garden to create a spirit-paralyzing perfume that covered up the pheromone traces. With the help of System 001’s accessories, they could move smoothly without hindrance.

As they walked, all the military females stopped, landing quietly on the ground and listening attentively to the Zerg Emperor’s address on the screens.

Mo’er wore a neat Zerg Emperor’s formal attire, facing the camera, he spoke slowly, “Du Lu is my Empress. He has been taken hostage by a female Zerg. I order all Zergs to spare no effort and find my Empress, no matter the cost.”

Mo’er’s voice was calm, but Lin Hanchuan had seen Du Lu’s memories, and he knew that when Mo’er spoke in this tone, he was extremely angry and not to be easily provoked.

The lofty Zerg Emperor remained silent for a few seconds and continued, “Before and yesterday, my Empress asked me if I loved him. Until he disappeared, I never had the chance to answer his question. If there is a third chance…”

“Let’s go,” Lin Hanchuan interrupted him before he could finish his sentence.

The first time Du Lu asked that question, Mo’er didn’t answer. When Lin Hanchuan asked for Du Lu the second time, he still didn’t answer. Who would be so foolish to give him a third chance?

The little male Zerg was full of love for him, but unfortunately, until the end, he never heard the word “love,” not even “like.”
