101: Chapter 101 Her Majesty

After the Spirit Worm quieted down, Tang Juan continued making the sandwiches.

At that moment, Ling Yichen, who was washing up at home, had a sudden thought and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Just a moment ago, he had sensed a trace of anomaly. This anomaly felt like someone had blown a breath on your neck—chilly and cold—but when you turned around, there was nothing behind you.

And he clearly knew that this anomaly was relayed back by the Spirit Worm he had split off.

"Did someone encounter something?"

He murmured, then began to carefully sense those closest to him.

As the number of Spirit Worms he had split off increased, the number of hosts he now possessed was extremely vast.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he hadn't been parasitizing others much recently; he no longer needed to do it himself.

Those who had been parasitized would automatically spread the Worms.

Of course, he didn't pay much attention to most people; only a small number of individuals were of special concern to him.

For example, Ye Qingzhu's family, Tian Yingying's family, as well as W and Long Daoyi and their group.

At this moment, he was investigating them one by one, checking if they had encountered any unusual events.

He investigated Ye Qingzhu's family first, but the first person he checked was not Tang Juan, but Ye Songtao.

Tang Juan was with him every day and they had met just two minutes ago, so there was nothing unusual.

Therefore, he had almost no suspicion toward Tang Juan, subconsciously assuming it was Ye Songtao.

After all, Ye Songtao was on the battlefield at the moment, so the probability of encountering an anomaly was extremely high.

Thus, he closed his eyes tightly and began to shift all his attention toward Ye Songtao.

Soon, he had a clear perception.

He entered Ye Songtao's perspective and saw him located in a huge bluestone camp, and the area he was in was the kitchen at the back of the camp.

Ye Songtao was busy in the kitchen, facing a huge iron pot, big enough to accommodate seven or eight people lying inside to bathe.

He was cooking, and the spatula in his hand was larger than he was, yet he was using it to stir-fry the food in the pot with ease.

Although it looked arduous, there was nothing wrong.

"Hmm? It's not him?"

Ling Yichen did not sense any anomaly from Ye Songtao.

After pondering for a few seconds, Ling Yichen disconnected from Ye Songtao. He opened his eyes slowly and began to investigate the others.

However... after checking everyone, he did not discover any anomalies.

The Spirit Worms inside most people were in a dormant state, including Tang Juan's.

This was his arrangement.

Ever since he sensed last time that the environment where Ye Songtao was located was not very good, he had made this arrangement.

He had originally intended for Tang Juan, as well as Tian Xingliang and Lu Yu, to all complete their awakening.

But later, he delayed this decision.

The situation on the battlefield was not optimistic; many people had died on the way to the military camp with Ye Songtao.

He was somewhat worried about letting Tang Juan and Tian Yingying's parents go to the military camp at this time.

Even if they were to go, it should wait until they themselves were also on the battlefield.

After checking everyone and finding no anomalies, Ling Yichen stopped overthinking it.

He thought it was because he had been cultivating in the Tower for a day and a night and was exhausted.

After washing up quickly, he changed his clothes and walked out of the room.

At this moment, Tang Juan had just finished making the sandwiches and placed them on the dining table.

"Thank you, Auntie!"

After expressing his thanks, Ling Yichen sat down and started eating.

"You eat, I'm going out to buy some groceries!"

No one thought much of it and nodded to indicate they understood.

Tang Juan, as usual, walked out the door naturally.

The guards outside saw her leave, but they had no intention of following her.

This was normal; their main task was actually to protect Ye Qingzhu. As for others, they were just looking after them incidentally, and they would not follow them every single moment.

Thus, Tang Juan left the hotel openly and headed toward the food market area.

Before long, she walked into the food market. After buying some ordinary fruits and vegetables at various stalls, she walked toward a small alley as if nothing were wrong.

When she arrived at an old, extremely dilapidated alley, she looked around. After confirming that there was no one around her, she stepped toward one of the walls of the alley.

A bizarre thing happened; the wall instantly distorted and rippled.

Then, Tang Juan was seen disappearing into the alley.

As Tang Juan stepped through the wall, she instantly entered a vast space.

This was an incomparably huge town, where people came and went in an endless stream.

However, the people here were not normal humans; at least most of them had forms specific to the Demon-Human Clan.

For example, some Demon-Humans had human bodies with flower heads, while others had humanoid bodies with only their feet in plant form.

There were also Demon-Humans with fish heads and human bodies, or human bodies with fish tails for their lower bodies.

Only a very small number of people possessed a complete human form, such as Tang Juan at this moment.

As soon as Tang Juan entered this space, a blue radiance immediately shone from her body, and under the shroud of this radiance, her body automatically transformed.

She became younger and her figure became more lithe; the appearance of a middle-aged woman from before was gone, and she was clearly a beautiful woman around thirty.

She was seen wearing an extremely gorgeous black starry dress, with a butterfly mask on her face, and dazzling blue radiance shining all around her, looking indescribably noble and elegant.

However, her appearance did not attract the attention of anyone around her; to be precise, it seemed they did not see her.

With one step, she covered a distance of tens or hundreds of meters, and in an instant, she walked out of the street and headed toward a gorgeous palace at the very back of the town.

In just a moment, she arrived at the entrance of the palace.

At the palace entrance were two giant Crocodile-Human guards, each standing three meters tall.

Their bodies were human, but their heads were those of crocodiles, and they dragged long crocodile tails behind them, holding battle axes larger than their own bodies, exuding an imposing aura.

The two Crocodile-Human guards also seemed unable to see Tang Juan's existence, and Tang Juan stepped toward the seemingly extremely thick bluestone palace gate.

The gate flickered illusionarily, rippling, and just like that, she passed through it easily.

As she stepped through the palace gate, she immediately entered an incomparably majestic hall.

The hall was filled with guards, all of whom were incomparably tall Demon-Humans.

And the aura of these Demon-Humans was several times stronger than the two guards at the entrance, each one being an existence that had reached B-rank.

The moment Tang Juan walked into the hall, all the Demon-Humans knelt down in unison, their voices emitting a shout that shook the surroundings: "Greetings, Your Majesty the Queen!"

And Tang Juan's body changed once again under this shout.

Suddenly, two pairs of blue-purple wings burst forth from behind her. The wings were incomparably huge, with powerful electric arcs flashing on them; every flash of the electric arc could split a small opening in space.

At the same time, from beneath her long dress, an iron tail as thick as an arm extended, and at the end of the tail flashed a huge electric arc. The electric arc emitted a sizzling radiance, directly distorting and swallowing the surrounding space, forming a black hole.

At this moment, Tang Juan's aura became extremely terrifying.

A massive pressure was released in an instant, suppressing all the surrounding Demon-Human guards to the point where they dared not even breathe.

She took a step, and a thunderous halo immediately bloomed beneath her feet, rippling outward.

Every step was the same, and she walked step by step toward a throne inlaid with magical gems at the very top of the hall.

After she sat elegantly on the throne, she spoke slowly: "Rise!"

Immediately, all the guards below dared to stand up. At the same time, inside the hall, the void began to distort, and dozens of figures emerged one by one from the distorted space.

"Greetings, Your Majesty the Queen!"

These people also bowed to Tang Juan in the same way.

Tang Juan raised her hand slightly and said: "Rise!"

Afterward, she asked: "How is the preparation for the teleportation array going?"

Soon, from among the dozens of people, a middle-aged woman with two pairs of butterfly wings walked out and replied: "Reporting to Your Majesty the Queen, the ancient teleportation array has reached the final stage. It will take at most three more months to complete. We will definitely be able to finish it within three months and successfully welcome the Imperial Princess back!"

Tang Juan nodded gently, indicating her satisfaction, and continued: "Recently, the sun and moon have been frequently behaving abnormally; it is clear that the seal of Sky City can no longer hold for much longer. Although our clan is the ancestor of all races, we have no choice but to abandon this Human Realm territory and head to the star domain to avoid disaster. Once the sun and moon fall, it will trigger a riot of all races, and the Human Realm will fall as well. I hope everyone will arrange for their respective clans to leave the Human Realm territory as soon as possible."

The next second, the dozens of people below bowed in unison to accept the order and replied: "Yes!"

Subsequently, Tang Juan said again: "By the way, the ancient insect embryo I picked up outside the borders years ago, which clan took it?"

Soon, a middle-aged, burly man walked out. He had an extremely sturdy human body, but behind him was a huge scorpion tail. He bowed and replied: "Reporting to Your Majesty the Queen, it was taken by my Giant Strength Scorpion Clan."

"Oh, how is that insect embryo now?"

The burly man was somewhat ashamed and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty the Queen, the insect embryo remains the same; it has not hatched."

"No matter, present it!" Tang Juan said lazily.

The burly man immediately took out a stone box emitting an ancient aura from his storage device, supported it with both hands, and held it above his head.

Tang Juan hooked her finger gently at the stone box, and the stone box immediately flew up and landed quietly in her hand.

She looked at the stone box, the corners of her lips slightly raised, and with a thought, a red Spirit Worm immediately appeared on her palm.

This Spirit Worm was, in fact, the one Ling Yichen had placed inside her body.

The Spirit Worm and the stone box were both in her palm, and the two surprisingly had the same aura.

However, the aura of the stone box was hundreds of times stronger, while the Spirit Worm was truly too weak.

After the Spirit Worm felt the aura of the stone box, it immediately trembled, not daring to get close to the stone box. Its small body swam back and forth around the stone box, which was quite interesting.

-- The curtain of the story is finally about to be lifted a corner. It is estimated to be three to five million words long, but unfortunately, the platform does not give traffic, so I can only hope that the brothers who like it will support it more, spend a little time watching ads, and brush some free gifts.
