61: Chapter 61 Taking Girls' Extroversion to the Extreme

In the garden.

Yun Zhuo looked at his Mother-in-law's eyes; at times they were clouded with a blurred softness, and at others, they were sharp enough to prick someone.

He immediately had an idea of what was happening; his passive skill, Monarchs Charm, must have been triggered.

But as for when exactly it had triggered, he didn't feel a thing, nor was there any energy consumption. He didn't even know how long the skill could last.

He knew even less that this skill also carried lingering effects; even after the skill was deactivated, the person affected would continue to be influenced for a period of time.

According to the System's description, once this skill took effect, all War Princesses with a talent Rank lower than his would be charmed by him, dropping all their psychological defenses.

His Mother-in-law was also a War Princess, and without even guessing, her talent certainly hadn't reached the Imperial Rank.

Of course, Yun Zhuo was also thankful that it was his Mother-in-law who came this time and not his Father-in-law; otherwise, he really wouldn't have dared to show up.

He suddenly remembered the System mentioning that the closer the distance, the greater the 'toxin.'

Should he move forward a couple more steps to test the effect?

Only after Ling Xiangjun silently recited the Heart Clearing Incantation once did her chaotic mind clear up a bit, suppressing those inexplicable thoughts.

She raised her eyes to look at Yun Zhuo, her tone leaving no room for argument: "You go out first. I have something to say to Little Yuan in private."

"No," Yun Zhuo said decisively. "I promised Little Yuan that we would come together and leave together."

"It's just a few words!" Ling Xiangjun frowned deeply, her tone instantly cooling by several degrees as her fingertips gripped the edge of the table. "I am her biological mother; could I possibly harm her?"

"Still no," Yun Zhuo's attitude remained firm. "Since I promised her, I have to keep my word."

"You... you brat, why are you so stubborn!" Ling Xiangjun's chest heaved slightly with anger.

Beside him, Su Qingyuan looked at Yun Zhuo with love that couldn't be hidden in her eyes. She quietly squeezed his hand, leaned her body closer to him, and looked up at Ling Xiangjun, saying softly:

"Mom, if you have something to say, just say it. Xiao Zhuo isn't an outsider."

Ling Xiangjun glared at her. They say daughters favor outsiders, and that saying was indeed not wrong at all.

She had just bonded with a War Spirit Master and forgotten her mother in the blink of an eye.

"Do you want to get that boy killed?"

"Mom, what do you mean by that?"

"Surely you haven't forgotten that you were already promised to Sima Xiang of the Sima Family by your father. Although your talent is poor, Sima Xiang took a liking to you at first sight.

Now that you've formed a contract with this boy, would a child like Sima Xiang marry a woman who has bonded with someone else?

You either break the contract with him now, or the people from the Sima Family will kill him to help you break it."

"Mom, the contract I formed with Xiao Zhuo is a death pact!"

Ling Xiangjun's brow quirked up. "A death pact? Are you using that to threaten me?"

"I'm not threatening you, I'm stating a fact. Also, Xiao Zhuo's talent and mine aren't mortal rank, but Imperial Rank.

Don't you think it's a loss to marry me off to the Sima Family?"

"Presumptuous! Is that any way to talk to your mother?"

Seeing his Mother-in-law's anger, Yun Zhuo said from the side, "Little Yuan, you should just say we are Heaven Rank High Grade. Who would believe it if you said Imperial Rank?"

"It's true just because you say it is?" Ling Xiangjun said coldly.

"That's simple. mortal rank War Princesses don't have a second form.

Little Yuan, deploy your second form and show it to our mom."

Ling Xiangjun instinctively slapped the table. This brat actually called me 'mom' again.

After that, she quickly recited the Heart Clearing Incantation in her mind again.

This was the first time Teacher Su had deployed her second form after evolving into the empress mecha, and it was also the first time Yun Zhuo had seen it.

The mecha's stature and height didn't seem to have any obvious changes, still resembling a female Ultraman, but certain areas seemed to have grown a size larger.

The original red and white interwoven mecha had been completely replaced with a gold and white color scheme.

Fine gilded patterns wound intricately along the smooth edges of the shoulder armor and the lines of the waist and abdomen. Even the pointed stilettos were inlaid with gold patterns, emitting a soft but not dazzling cold light when they caught the light.

A head of snow-white long hair fell to the shimmering curve of her buttocks. When the wind blew, her slit white long skirt spread out to both sides like wings, fully revealing the sharp lines of her long legs beneath the skirt.

Carrying a gun behind her back with one hand, she was already valiant and upright, but now she possessed an invincible aura of being peerless.

At the same time, her entire body was unstained by even a speck of dust—yes, that was the phrase.

Yun Zhuo used to think Teacher Su was coated in Teflon, but now he saw his own vision had been narrow; her second form carried a kind of clear, elegant aura.

It made her immaculate.

As Ling Xiangjun looked at Su Qingyuan's second form, amidst her shock, she saw strings of data flashing rapidly across the iris of her left eye.

Finally, a red light flashed—ERROR: Target potential value exceeds the limit of appraisal!

She hurriedly blinked, closing the appraisal function of her artificial eye, and stared at Su Qingyuan's second form in astonishment.

Being Heaven Rank High Grade herself, she suddenly felt a pressure coming from the difference in Rank, causing her to involuntarily clench her palms.

That boy wasn't lying. Little Yuan's current talent Rank was definitely far beyond Heaven Rank High Grade.

In the attic, Su Qingtang's eyes were also wide and round, her face almost pressed against the window glass as her fingers unconsciously clawed at the window frame. Her younger sister really had evolved!

But she didn't have a primal spirit stone, so how did she evolve?

And why did her second form look even stronger than her own?

Could what she just said be true? Above Heaven Rank High Grade, does an Imperial Rank level really exist?

Yun Zhuo was also stunned for a moment, but then the joy in his eyes could no longer be hidden, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl upward.

This was actually his mecha. She was dazzling from the inside out, and even the way the wind blew her skirt made his heart swell with pride.

Even though it cost ten billion, it wasn't a loss at all.

Give such a powerful War Princess to the Sima Family?

Ling Xiangjun immediately rejected that decision.

Such a War Princess must remain in the Su Family. Anyone who dared to lay a finger on her would be a mortal enemy of the Su Family.

Thinking of this, her gaze turned toward Yun Zhuo once more.

How exactly did this boy make my daughter evolve?

A spirit origin stone? Even with a spirit origin stone, it would be impossible to evolve to this extent.

At this moment, because Teacher Su lacked Yun Zhuo's corrosion energy furnace, she could only maintain her second form for less than ten seconds before she could no longer support it independently and reverted back to human form.

Don't look at it as only being less than ten seconds; this was thanks to last night, when Yun Zhuo had poured a lot of high-energy protein into her.

Otherwise, with the upgraded second form, if it were just her alone, being able to maintain it for three seconds would be the absolute limit.

Then she naturally took Yun Zhuo's hand and leaned against him, her eyes full of a pride she couldn't hide.

But her hand gripped his arm tightly, as if she were afraid he would run away.

Coming back to her senses, Ling Xiangjun cleared her throat, her tone becoming softer: "Xiao Zhuo, can you wait outside for a moment? I have a few words to say to Little Yuan alone; this will involve whether you two can be together in the future."

"No room for negotiation?" Yun Zhuo asked.

Ling Xiangjun smiled and shook her head: "Rest assured, the current Little Yuan cannot possibly be married off to the Sima Family, but..."

At this point, she paused, suddenly alert—how had she blurted out her inner thoughts?

Even if my daughter doesn't marry into the Sima Family, she isn't someone a commoner like you can lay claim to.

She looked at Yun Zhuo with frustration; this wasn't the first time she had used her left eye to scan this young man.

But every scan showed everything was normal.

Yet why did she find him more and more pleasing to the eye the more she looked at him? Whenever she spoke to him, she felt like baring her soul to him, wanting to tell him even her deepest secrets.

Reason told her this wasn't normal; there was definitely something wrong with this boy, but she couldn't figure out what it was.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt she was just being paranoid.

Therefore, she had to get this boy away before she could talk to Little Yuan; otherwise, if he were present, it would only turn into a one-sided confession on her part.

Seeing her mother's conflicted look, Teacher Su ultimately couldn't harden her heart and said to Yun Zhuo, "Xiao Zhuo, could you wait for me downstairs? I'll call you if anything happens."

Giving her to everyone as a wife
