My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts Chapter 205 - 71: Wrath

Ke Lian was already sowhat unable to hold on, leaning against the tal, unsure whether he felt anticipation or regret in his heart. After all, he thought that once he dug through these ruins, he would be able to see Du Xixi, who had always been on his mind.

However, Chen Yin was evidently a bit more rational than Ke Lian. Observing Mo Ying’s pensive expression, he moved a bit closer to the layer of tal, his eyes sharply fixed on a strand of fur caught in the crevice of the tal that was undoubtedly familiar to everyone.

Could it be that this was left by those who attacked Du Xixi and the others? White fur? The Beast Clan?

"It’s Iron-eating Beast fur!" Rob took out tweezers from the Space Button, pinched a few strands to analyze them carefully, and was very sure that this white fur ca from an Iron-eating Beast.

"It should be from the Iron-eating Beast His Majesty and the two cubs beside him. They ca to see , and on behalf of the Iron-eating Beast Empire, signed an alliance agreent with the Blue Star Empire." Chen Yin spoke calmly, furrowing his thick eyebrows, his handso face uncharacteristically serious without a hint of jest, "However, Xixi’s incident should have nothing to do with them. They wouldn’t dare."

The strength disparity between the Blue Star Empire and the Iron-eating Beast Empire is vast. In every aspect, the Blue Star Empire currently holds the dominant position. Even though the alliance agreent states that the two are establishing peaceful and equal relations, everyone knows that the Iron-eating Beast Empire relies heavily on the Blue Star Empire.

Du Xixi is one of the Blue Star Empire’s three Grand Marshals - Ke Lian’s wife, wealthy and powerful, with Chen Yin as her backing. The Iron-eating Beasts would be insane to attack Du Xixi.

If they wanted to befriend the Blue Star Empire, establishing a good relationship with Du Xixi would be most important. Besides, the Iron-eating Beasts seed to genuinely like Du Xixi, making it unlikely that they harbor any malice towards her.

"Looks like they visited her before leaving." Rob’s voice was calm as he spoke, while lowering his head, using his cha hand to touch the layer of tal, "There is a life form here; they must be below. This layer of tal, could it be 2569? It’s possible it used its body to protect her."

What Rob said was not without reason. Regardless of who attacked Du Xixi and the others, rescuing them first was most paramount. Ke Lian took a deep breath, trying to steady his already trembling hands, then opened the Light Computer to find the control program for 2569.

"Number 002569, scanning master’s iris system."

"Iris system scan complete! Master’s identity confird!"

2569’s chanical voice sounded so lodious at that mont, as a red light swept across Ke Lian’s eyes, and the layer of tal slowly revealed its fissures.

The tal that had seed so heavy, at this mont, was unbelievably fragile. Before long, it had transford from thin cracks into fragnts scattered all over the ground. Previously under the protection of 2569, Du Xixi and Miao Miao appeared before everyone.

Du Xixi’s condition did not seem good. She lay curled up on her side on the ground, her hands protecting her large pregnant belly, her charming eyebrows tightly knitted, as if voicing her current pain.

As for Miao Miao, her hooded long dress was nowhere to be seen. In what should have been her half-human, half-cat form, she had reverted to her original form, lying beside Du Xixi’s head, her long tail laboriously draped over Du Xixi’s arm, seemingly trying hard to be closer to her.

Both the person and the cat had fallen into unconsciousness.

It is often said that people beco stronger when they are vulnerable. Mo Ying thought this saying suited Chen Yin, but it did not fit Ke Lian at all.

Both were equally saddened by Du Xixi’s mishap, yet after just one glance at her, Ke Lian collapsed to the ground unconscious. anwhile, Chen Yin could still hold on, calmly transforming Rob into a Hovercar, then carried Ke Lian and Miao Miao himself, while having Mo Ying carry Du Xixi into the vehicle.

Zhang Xiong, at Chen Yin’s signal, stayed behind to search through the ruins for sothing. On the battlefield, every corner might conceal an enemy. And even though this was not a battlefield, there was a possibility that enemy traces could be left behind.

Inside the Hovercar, Mo Ying didn’t have ti to ponder why Miao Miao was missing, instead turning to see a black cat lying next to Du Xixi, knowing only that the frail Du Xixi, who couldn’t be put down, was leaning weakly against her lap, her breathing so shallow that it was barely perceptible.
