Ning Feng and the others couldn’t contain their elation and surprise. They took the lead to fly to the sky to welcome the returning Nie Xiao. However, when they got closer, they were stunned by the sorrow on Nie Xiao’s face.

They saw tears uncontrollably flowing from the corners of Nie Xiao’s flushed eyes as he stood desolately amid the blue sky. He raised his head and wept quietly, “Baby..”

They had never seen such a sad Nie Xiao.

A terrible and grievous conjecture popped up in their mind. Could it be that Saath’s bullshit plan really succeeded? Was Xiao WuYi really killed by him?

“Boss..” said Ning Feng in a trembling voice while looking at Nie Xiao. He gripped Nie Xiao’s arms with both hands. “Where’s WuYi? Where’s our little hamster?”

Nie Xiao’s red eyes looked at Ning Feng blankly and helplessly, tears falling involuntarily. Recalling the vague explosion he’d heard at that moment, his heart hurt so much it was as if it had been dug out. He opened his mouth, yet no sound came out.

He was so tremendously sad it seemed like he had lost his soul.

When Xiao Yan and the group saw Nie Xiao’s state, they burst into tears. They couldn’t restrain their lips from uttering sobs.

....

The night passed and a new dawn broke. Two days passed by in the blink of an eye, and the Alliance’s reinforcements had finally arrived on Earth.

With violent rumbling and tremors, several huge ships cleaved through the white clouds and descended from the sky. This spectacular scene instantly attracted everyone’s attention.

However, all of this couldn’t set off any waves in Nie Xiao’s heart. He was still standing in the same spot in the sky, untiring and unaware of hunger, seemingly waiting for something idiotically.

Ning Feng, Duan Wenyu, and the team had been guarding Nie Xiao in turns. When they heard the movement on the horizon, they called out to him several times with bloodshot eyes, and yet, they couldn’t get a response.

At that moment, a few small black dots could be seen leaping out of the huge ship at an extremely fast speed before eagerly flying in their direction.

Both MoYan and AnYi couldn’t wait to see their child. They noticed Nie Xiao’s group in the sky and thought they were there specially to welcome them.

AnYi controlled the wind around him as he flew over with a smile. He said in a friendly and gentle manner, “Are you all from the WuYi Base? Hello, I am the Grand Secretary of the Nemo Royal Clan, AnYi.”

MoYan also followed not a moment after. He smiled and declared his possession: “En, he’s also my wife.” AnYi unhappily gave MoYan a fist.

Possier, Feng Dao, and Feng Qiang greeted their fathers. Sislow’s eyes reddened directly. A small cannonball plunged into Lord Randt’s arms. Clutching his father’s collars with both hands, he bawled, “Papa, you’re too late! Why are you only here now uwaahh!

“His Highness WuYi sacrificed his life uwaaahh!!”

AnYi and MoYan quickly caught the keywords. They abruptly turned their heads before questioning with ugly faces, “What did you just say!?”

At this moment, they had finally realized that the surrounding emotions weren’t quite right. The downcast and silent atmosphere didn’t seem like it should be what those welcoming them should have.

Sislow cried while explaining, clarifying what had happened in the past two days briefly, “That Saath of the Qitu race came over two days ago. He wanted to capture His Highness WuYi to create a new world. He threatened His Highness WuYi by saying that he’d blow up all of us if he didn’t go with him. After that, His Highness WuYi, Nie Xiao, and Saath all disappeared. In the end, Boss came back, but His Highness never did!!

“Wuuwawa, it’s because we’re too weak. We couldn’t protect His Highness WuYi uwaaa..”

After listening to the bad news’ whole course of events, AnYi’s face suddenly paled, and he took two steps back, his figure tottering midair. MoYan couldn’t accept this fact, his eyes flushed crimson as he supported AnYi’s arms. His chest rose and fell for a while as his breathing was unstable.

“How could this be..” The expressions of Duke Seidon and Lord Randt too became really ugly. If the last royal bloodline of the Nemo Royal Clan really fell, the entire Interstellar Alliance would be shaken by it!

On the side, Duan WenYu, Wu Wenqi, and the rest could imagine WuYi’s importance to MoYan and the others, but they could only be silent and grieve at this point.

MoYan was unwilling to believe it. He could not accept it. He temporarily handed AnYi to Xiao Yan at the side for her to watch after him, looked at Nie Xiao, who was standing quietly not far away, and rushed over aggressively, grabbing the other’s collar and roaring questions with bloodshot eyes, “You were with His Highness at the end so why didn’t you protect him!? Why! What happened in the middle!!?”

Regarding the secrets of the royal bloodline’s abilities, MoYan knew it very well, so he could not accept it even more—that his family’s little highness, who had his living-things-containing space and shuttle ability, couldn’t protect himself!!

“Speak! What happened in the middle? Tell me carefully and clearly!” MoYan bellowed with red eyes while shaking Nie Xiao by his collar. In the end, he punched the other’s cheek.

Seeing this scene, everyone exclaimed and stepped forward to interfere.

Nie Xiao wiped the corner of his mouth where bright red blood spilled out. He slowly raised his eyes to look at MoYan before replying in an incomparably calm voice, “Baby will be back. He last said to me that he’d be fine. I will wait for him here.”

After his immense sadness passed, Nie Xiao calmed down and recalled the last sentence Xiao WuYi had said to him. Whether he’d lied to him or not, he chose to believe it. If he wasn’t back after a day, then he’d wait here for a lifetime.

“You fucker..” MoYan saw Nie Xiao’s indifferent, calm appearance, which dyed his eyes even redder. He was so angry he wanted to rush and beat him up, yet Nie Xiao, contrarily, had not the slightest intentions of fighting back.

Shaking off the crowd, MoYan grabbed Nie Xiao by his neckline and started to punch him. Nie Xiao didn’t do anything and simply looked over MoYan’s shoulder at the sky in front of him. Just then, his eyes couldn’t help but widen, gradually reddening at the same time.

The snow-white clouds amid the blue sky before him suddenly began to fluctuate and distort, following it was a cute soft voice.

“Uncle, you’re too much! How can you bully Daddy while Baby’s away!!!”

Everyone present was made dumbstruck by the familiar voice. They followed the voice and looked over, then saw a youth emerge from the cotton-candy-like clouds unharmed.

Xiao WuYi directly squeezed in between Nie Xiao and MoYan, looking at his uncle with a puffed face, hands on his hips. His small mouth rebuked MoYan for bullying Nie Xiao while he was gone.

This angry little appearance showed no trace of suffering. In an instant, everyone’s eyes flushed.

“Great, Xiao WuYi, you’re finally back!!!”

“Aaahh, thank goodness!!!”

“You’re safe, that’s really great!!!”

....

Everyone hurriedly surrounded him with excitement, which made Xiao WuYi taken aback. He helplessly took two steps back in panic and retreated directly into Nie Xiao’s arms. “Everyone.. what’s wrong with everyone ya?”

Nie Xiao tightly hugged the lost and found youth, buried his head in his neck, and took a deep breath of longing, his eyes uncontrollably red. “Baby, everyone’s welcoming you back safely.”

Xiao WuYi finally noticed the sky’s color indicating dawn. He then looked MoYan and AnYi who should have only appeared here two days later, and he suddenly realized the time gap he took up in between. He couldn’t help feeling a little ashamed and guilty. “Sorry, it was Baby who worried everyone.”

The red-eyed MoYan shook his head and forcefully took his family’s little Highness from Nie Xiao’s arms so that he could check him thoroughly. “It’s okay, it’s okay. It’s already good that you’re back.”

AnYi also leaned over at this time, the rims of his eyes somewhat red, and hugged Xiao WuYi. After separating for several years, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief. “You naughty不省心: Makes people worried all the time little villain!”

Xiao WuYi gazed at his Uncle AnYi, whom he missed very much. He immediately hugged the other’s waist, brimming with tears. His sudden spoiled act akin to a tiger made everyone around him laugh.

“Auntie, Baby missed you so much too!”

“Tsk, I said to call me Little Uncle!”

“Hahahaha!!”

....

Seeing this joyous scene, Nie Xiao’s lips uncontrollably curved. Sincere gratitude and gladness stemmed from the depths of his heart. Fortunately, his heart’s cutest little sun had finally returned to them safely.

“Woah! Everyone, look at the sunrise over there!”

Hearing Ning Feng’s voice, everyone looked towards the east. The daybreak sun was slowly rose from the middle of the mountains, and its warm golden sunlight shone on the land that had experienced great changes and hardships.

The world was about to usher in a brand new beginning.
