Chapter 68: Revealed Identity
Translator: Kingbao Editor: DarkGem
A month later, they successfully discovered several more research bases of smaller scale.
All this happened while Yao Si rotted at home. Mu Xuan had been occupied the entire time, barely returning to the house. However, every single time the thought of going out crossed Yao Si’s mind, he would immediately appear to stuff her back in place, even forbidding her to attend school.
With a parent that helped his child play truant, Yao Si was thoroughly defeated.
What’s remarkable was that after the destruction of Euphoria’s research base, the organization seemed to have vanished into thin air. Despite all the efforts of the Alliance and the Red Planet, they weren’t able to trace anything. Even the bases they infiltrated weren’t able to provide them with any clue.
Yao Si grew increasingly worried. Had the video she sent out from the research base pushed the organization into a defence mode?
“Definitely not!” Mu Xuan refuted. “The video you sent out was broadcast through a separate channel. Due to the fields around the planet, it would take at least ten days for them to receive it. The bloodlings had only headed to the planet after the danger had been eliminated.
This meant that they would first receive information that their base had been exposed to the bloodlings before receiving her video.
“You did the right thing!”
Mu Xuan reached out to caress her head. Even if her identity as a fifth-generation was exposed, it was for the best. Besides, with her volatile ability, she would be useless in certain circumstances, but no one knew that! With the identity of a fifth-generation bloodling and his cub, she would be of important status, which would form protective barrier around her.
After all, even if she was ambitious, the knowledge that she was his cub and so they shared a unique connection would deter enemies from preying on her. Hence, anonymity was no good. She should be advertised publicly instead. “Rather than engaging in underground protection, why not thoroughly expose you under the sun.”
Thoroughly? Er… what do you mean?
Yao Si remained confused for a long time. Only after three months did she finally gain enlightenment. While she was out kite flying, she chanced upon the main screen in the heart of the Bloodling capital, where a video of her was playing on repeat.
“Remember my words, they’re no warning or threat, we are coming!”
What kind of experience is spotting yourself on such a screen? Yao Si had no idea, but at this moment, she had an urge to blind her eyes.
How shameful! How embarrassing!
What was the video doing here? Was this what Mu Xuan had meant by putting everything under the sun? But… isn’t this too much?! Most importantly… why just that portion? She had definitely never sprouted such a cringe-worthy sentence before! However, the entire street of bloodlings seemed to have been touched.
“Such charisma… It’s Her Highness indeed!”
“Yes, so charismatic! Ahahah… Marry me!”
“Yes yes! I never knew Her Highness had such vigor!”
“Hmph, who cares about the organization, with Her Highness around, they’re just paper tigers!”
“That’s how the bloodlings do it!”
“Her Highness is right! All against them!”
Yao Si froze, speechless. Her heart shattered. Somehow, she had transformed from a weakling into a superwoman. My image is in tatters now! I’m a girl, a girl! How am I supposed to get married now?
The video was all over the streets, and even the first thing that popped up once one opened their optical computer. Yao Si could already imagine everyone in the entire Galaxy watching her video.
What a nightmare…
She pushed her cap farther down, to the point that it covered all her face. You can’t see me, I’m invisible…
