Chapter 721: 13.22 – Missed Star – General Autumn facing the enemies alone.

There are sounds of bombing and explosions not far from them. It seems that the enemies were targeting the Dragon Palace, but a huge and strong protective barrier surrounds the Palace and the attacks were unable to penetrate it.

Lin Lan and Lou Ye, who were former soldiers, knew what was happening the instant they saw the scene outside their training facilities.

Lou Ye cursed. “Shit! Damn. Damn! Why is this happening now!?” he complains while looking for weapons they could use for protection. Besides him, Lin Lan is doing the same thing.

Lin Lan had a serious expression on his face as he looked at the youngsters in their group. Seeing that one of them was missing.

“Where’s Mo Feng!?”

Ye Wusheng answered, “He went to the toilet half an hour ago because of a stomach ache. Is this cosmos being invaded?”

Lin Lan replied with urgency, “Yes! Wear your protective gear and turn on your life-saving capsule. Xiao Wu, you are from Ye Clan, right? Try calling your family and inform them of this situation! Immediately.”

“O-Okay! I’ll call big brother!” said Ye Wusheng while Tu Zise moves to help him wear his protective battle suit while letting his lover focus on contacting their elder brother as they are currently in a dangerous situation.

Lou Ye curiously asked, “Big Brother? Xiao Wu, you have a big brother.”

But he was ignored as Ye Wusheng is currently focusing on his terminal contacting his elder brother through his private number.

It was Tu Zise who answered his question. “We... We are from the direct bloodline of the Regal Ye Clan. A’Wu is... General Autumn’s biological younger brother.” Tu Zise bit his lips as he answered their teammates with honesty.

Lin Lan and Lou Ye were rendered speechless in shock when they heard that Ye Wusheng and Tu Zise were of Regal Ye Clan’s direct bloodline instead of their profile saying that they were of the branch family. What stunned them the most is that Ye Wusheng is that famous General Autumn’s little brother. This young man is pure true-blue blood.

Lou Ye mumbled, “G-General Autumn’s... L-L-Little brother!?”

Lin Lan cursed for the first time in shock, “Fuck! Are you for real!?”

They saw Ye Wusheng finish his call with his elder brother and heard them talking about his family. He nodded his head in agreement with the two who asked about his bloodline.

Nods. “Ge said to wait here. Ruan-ge and Yuu-ge will escort us to the Dragon Palace,” said Ye Wusheng as he helped his lover with his defensive gears and weapons.

Lou Ye called in confusion, “Ruan-ge? Yuu-ge?”

Lin Lan kicked his lover’s shin, “It’s Major Tang and Corporal He!”

Suddenly they heard hurried footsteps coming over their facilities. This group marched as an assembly. It seems that they are enemies. Hearing the approaching footsteps, former soldiers Lin Lan and Lou Ye pulled the two youngsters behind them. Though they are retired, both of them are soldiers who used to serve the Empire, and both have full A++ Physique.

Lin Lan whispered, “Hide behind the compartments.” Yu Wusheng and Tu Zise shake their heads in disagreement.

Lou Ye grabbed the two forcedly and threw both of them inside the emptied weapon compartment. “Hide! You’re both in the way!”

Lin Lan looked at his lover, “...”

“Lan’er don’t scold. We are soldiers. It’s our duty to protect civilians especially the Regal Bloodline of Ye,” said Lou Ye with an unusually serious expression on his face.

Lin Lan smiled at him and pulled Lou Ye over by his collar, kissing him out of nowhere. Lou Ye was surprised at first but made his move to hold his lover closer to him by his waist deepening their kiss. Once they’ve parted, they’ve stared into each other’s eyes.

Lou Ye hugged Lin Lan tightly, “If... If we survive... marry me, Lan’er.” He spoke.

Lin Lan hugged him back while patting his back. “Sure. I will marry you, Yeye.”

Once they heard the door forcefully open the two of them separated and focused on eliminating the enemies while protecting the compartment. They’ve used everything they got to eliminate as many enemies as they could, but the number of the invaders seems to be a lot. After fighting for half an hour, Lin Lan and Lou Ye were captured both and were covered in the blood of their enemies and bullet scars.

“Speak! Where’s Prince Ye and Prince Tu!?”

Lin Lan and Lou Ye keep their silence. “...”

Even when a gun was pointed at them Lin Lan and Lou Ye didn’t speak. “Since you’re useless then you don’t need to live any longer!” Before the trigger was pulled Ye Wusheng and Tu Zise went out of the compartment with tears strolling down their eyes.

Ye Wusheng and Tu Zise yelled at the same time. “Stop this instant!”

Once the enemies saw the two youngsters, they immediately recognized them, especially Ye Family’s silvery hair trademark. They instantly let go of the two wounded soldiers they’ve captured and focused on the two youngsters. It’s said that Ye Clan has Bloodline Limit skill which allows one to enter the S Class stage in a short time.

Lin Lan scolded them, “Why did you come out!?”

Lou Ye crawls towards his lover, “These Damn brats!”

“Prince Ye. Prince Tu. Glad to see you. We are supposed to take you as hostages to force General Autumn to pick over you both or his lover General Long. Hahaha~ spending! It seems there will be a good show to watch~”

Ye Wusheng angrily glared at the man who spoke. “YOU!”

“Capture them.” The man ordered but no one really came over to follow his command. “What are you fucking wait—...”

He can then only look behind to scold his soldiers only to see. A handsome dark-skinned man with an extremely angered expression on his face behind him a silly-looking prince shooting at his subordinates while humming. Team Silent Night instantly recognized the new arrivals. It was Ru Tang and Tang Yuu, but their demeanor is completely different from before. They were covered in the official battle suits. Ru Tang wearing a pure black battle suit with a silver maple leaf on his chest. Tang Yuu on the other hand wears the same black suit but with a golden dragon motif on his cloak.

Lou Ye calls in disbelief, “Ru Tang? Tang Yuu?”

While backing away, this only remaining invader recognized the crests on the two. They watch the two figures reveal their real appearance. Ru Tang’s blonde hair turned black while retaining his golden eyes. On the other hand, He Yuu’s black eyes slowly turned golden like his hair. Ye Wusheng and Tu Zise looked at the pair in disbelief.

Tu Zise exclaimed, “Ruan-gege!? Yuu-gege!? You both are... Ru Tang and Tang Yuu!?”

He Yuu smiled at them and waves his hand, “Hi~ it’s good your are still alive~ else Your Highness will kill us~”

Tang Ruan focused more on the two wounded soldiers Lin Lan and Lou Ye. Seeing that they were covered in gunshots and fractures. He instantly lowered his head. “Lin Lan. Lou Ye! Thank you for protecting the children! If you have any request, I shall do everything I can to do so!”

Lin Lan and Lou Ye were stunned to see Player Ru Tang and Player Tang Yuu turn to become Major Tang and Corporal He before them. Eyes widened in shock, they were frozen stiff.

Lou Ye starts stuttering... “M-M-Major T-Tang?! C-Corporal H-He!? God! Am I dreaming!? Lan’er slap me!”

SLAP!

Lin Lan instinctively slapped his lover as he was also stunned. “D-Does it hurt?”

(QAQ)(QAQ)(QAQ)

Lou Ye with tears on the corner of his eyes and a swollen left cheek answered, “Y-Yea~ it hurts a lot~”

Tang Ruan smiled at them as he passed them High Tier Restoration Potions which will instantly recover their body’s healthy state. After waiting for a while, the two looked good as new as if they weren’t injured at all.

“Ruan-ge. If you are Player Xiao Ru then... is Autumn God my big brother and Dragon God my brother-in-law?” asked Ye Wusheng while his other teammates froze. Then they saw Tang Ruan’s bitter smile and He Yuu’s wide grin. Their expression gave them the answer they wished to hear.

Lin Lan dazedly said, “To think I’ve already met General Autumn and General Long and personally even spoke with them. This is amazing.” Lou Ye was stunned silly this time.

Tu Zise innocently asked, “Ruan-gege, where’s Big brother and Elder brother?”

Tang Ruan and He Yuu’s expressions turned serious.

He Yuu said, “My Lord, General Long entered his seclusion to unlock his third gene. General Autumn is... defending the frontlines with the space bandits on his own.”

Everyone was surprised, “What!?”

Tang Ruan explained, “Now that Lord Long is not available. Lord Autumn could only step on the frontline personally. As Lord Long is currently slumbering within the Dragon Palace. Lord Autumn could only unlock his three gene seals to push away the invaders out of the cosmos. He is currently fighting spreading his spirit strings to capture all invaders that entered the lands of the cosmos. We’ve separated just now.”

Ye Wusheng and Tu Zise run out of the facilities to look at their elder brother. The others have no other choice but to follow them out in order to protect them. They can only see destruction within the sky as two battleships explode once it was cut to pieces by someone. Looking in the sky they saw that a huge white barrier protected the whole cosmos. Outside of it is a sole figure of a man in his ancient white suit. Behind him flutters long strands of silver hair with hints of blood tainting its purity. Silver strings cover the sky like a web with countless invaders cutting limb by limb as if something preyed on them. Blood rain fell from the sky.

It is Ye Qiuji wearing a cold expression and an emotionless face as he stared at the huge spaceship hovering in front of him. An overwhelming pressure of 3S Full Physique made his enemies explode like balloons but protected the Dragon Cosmos like an awakened dragon from his slumber angered that his house was invaded by outsiders. His heavenly figure and straight back made anyone who saw him look like a God descending on earth to protect them. Two figures covered in their own blood stood in distance before him looking at Ye Qiuji as if they were both seeing a monster.

Ye Wusheng calls, “Big. Brother.”

Tu Zise asked, “Ruan-gege. Yuu-gege. Aren’t you going to help big brother?!”

Tang Ruan and He Yuu with ugly expressions could only shake their heads. Lin Lan and Lou Ye understood the reason why these two let only General Autumn stand on the frontlines. When they saw the familiar figure of the notorious fugitive of their cosmos, they knew that the enemies were a huge group of SS Physique possessors. For Tang Ruan and He Yuu who only possess Tier S Physique, they will only die foolishly and endanger the general if they enter the battlefield.

Tang Ruan, biting his lower lips, remained silent. “Please follow us to the Dragon Palace. Staying here will just burden the General of our presence.”
