Free Web NovelChapter 234: Chapter 211: Let All Evil End Today
In the shadows, aboard a Starship of the Dark Force.
This time, the muzzles of the cannons turned, aiming at Yu Lan and Yu Wenzhou’s position.
The elite squad from the Dark Planet, here to provide support, had arrogant and malicious smiles on their faces.
"Princess Yu Lan, time to die."
The next instant, a cannonball shot out, heading straight for Yu Lan and Yu Wenzhou.
Seeing this, Ye Moyun’s pupils constricted, and the hand at his side clenched into a tight fist.
’She has to dodge it!’
’She has to dodge it!’
’Dodge it, dodge it, dodge it.’
’I can’t reveal myself now. My years-long wish for revenge is so close to being fulfilled.’
’It can’t all be ruined in an instant.’
Ye Moyun stared intently at the completely unaware Yu Lan and Yu Wenzhou.
His eyes held an anxiety that even he hadn’t noticed.
The sound of the cannonball tearing through the air rang out.
The moment it began hurtling toward them, Yu Wenzhou, who was in agony, suddenly looked up and saw it.
He subconsciously reached out to push Yu Lan away and block the blast for her.
Just as Jun Lin Yuan and Fu Chenhan had done during the tournament.
But this time...
Yu Lan gripped Yu Wenzhou’s hand tightly, not letting him push her away.
"It’s useless, Yu Wenzhou."
"You can block this one, but you can’t block the next."
"Belina came today with the express purpose of killing me."
Not only did she hire Ye Moyun’s Dark Night Star Thief Group, she even contacted the Dark Force to dispatch another elite squad.
She was determined to eliminate her, to cut down any obstacle that would prevent Louisa from taking the throne.
’Since it’s come to this... ’
Yu Lan reversed her grip and pushed Yu Wenzhou, who was suffering from the black mist and on the verge of transforming into his beast form, behind her.
Her amber eyes stared directly at the cannonball hurtling toward her.
’Let all this sin and suffering end today.’
Yu Lan closed her eyes.

"Bad news, Commander."
"Bad news, Commander! The frontline squad has detected another team from the Dark Planet near White Sand Star."
"Judging by their formation, it’s an elite combat squad. The entire sky above White Sand Star is now shrouded in a black mist."
"We’re sending people to analyze the mist’s composition. The preliminary judgment is that it can cause males to go berserk, lose their minds, and their spiritual power to explode."
"White Sand Star is in danger, Commander. What do we do now?"
"What?!"
Fu Chenhan had never imagined it would come to this.
’Another squad from the Dark Force has appeared.’
’What on earth is Yu Lan doing?’
’Is she trying to destroy all of White Sand Star?’
The tall, handsome Federation Commander standing before everyone else lifted his gaze to the distant White Sand Star, which was completely enveloped in black mist.
Though he was far away, it was as if he could see the sight of all living beings on White Sand Star crying out in agony.
He couldn’t worry about anything else now.
Without further hesitation, he quickly issued his orders:
"Relay this order: depart immediately to support White Sand Star."
"Send a message back to the Federation at once and request reinforcements."
"Yes, sir!"
The moment after the orders were given, just as Fu Chenhan turned around—
BOOM!
A violent explosion echoed through the air.
The sound reached Fu Chenhan’s ears all the way from White Sand Star.
This particular sound was so distinct.
Subconsciously, Fu Chenhan was afraid to turn back and look closely.
He stiffly turned his head, only to see a pillar of Golden Light erupting from the location of the Star Governor Mansion on White Sand Star.
The entire universe seemed to pale in comparison to this dazzling Golden Light.
The black mist created by the Dark Force’s elite squad was annihilated without a trace the instant it touched the Golden Light.
"Wh-wh-what... What’s going on?"
The Federation squad had never seen such a sight.
"Has the Empire already developed a way to resist the dark invasion?"
"No, that’s not it."
One of the Federation People, who clearly recognized what was happening, explained with a tremor in his voice:
"That’s a 3S-level."
"A 3S-level female, who possesses the power to heal all things."
"There have long been rumors that Princess Yu Lan was a 3S-level female, but they were always suppressed."
"The idea was too shocking, so no one gave it much thought. But it turns out... it turns out it was actually true."
The first time in millennia that a 3S-level female unleashed her power before the eyes of the public was at the moment of her death.
What a tragic and lamentable sight it was.
Fu Chenhan’s eyes trembled. As the image of White Sand Star reflected in his deep blue eyes, a faint glint of moisture flickered within them.
A wave of intense regret and guilt washed over him.
Why? Why hadn’t he immediately gone to support Yu Lan the moment he received the news?
Why had he left her to fight alone on White Sand Star?
So, from beginning to end, he had misunderstood her.
If Yu Lan had truly been cooperating with the Dark Planet for the throne, why would she have resorted to sacrificing herself?
The Federation guards, who had been whispering amongst themselves, instantly fell silent.
They saw the aura around Fu Chenhan, who had seemed fine just moments ago, change in an instant.
If the Fu Chenhan from before was a sleeping beast, the man now was an enraged lion.
His aura was sharp and chilling, radiating a bloodthirsty, murderous intent.
His voice, thick with intense hatred, was ground out between clenched teeth, one word at a time:
"Depart. For. White Sand Star."
"Yes, sir!"
Meanwhile, on White Sand Star, the people who had been driven mad by their rampaging spiritual power and forced into their beast forms slowly regained their senses, their minds clearing.
It was as if they had undergone a full-body restorative treatment; their bodies felt incredibly comfortable.
Like fully charged batteries, they were brimming with endless energy.
"What happened?"
"What was that just now?"
"How are we suddenly all right?"
"It was that light! Where did that light come from?"
On White Sand Star, everyone looked at each other in confusion.
Soon, someone figured it out and shouted.
"It was Princess Yu Lan!"
"I saw it! A cannonball was fired at Princess Yu Lan!"
"It was Princess Yu Lan! Princess Yu Lan sacrificed herself!"
"Princess Yu Lan saved us!"
"What? How is that possible? How could Princess Yu Lan be sacrificed? Her guards, her Beast Husbands..."
The lofty Princess of the Royal Family.
The top contender for the next Queen.
Princess Yu Lan, with her boundless future.
How could she die on a worthless planet like White Sand Star, which wouldn’t even cause a ripple in the eyes of the nobility?
"Then why don’t you explain where that white light came from just now?"
"If the Empire had a weapon capable of suppressing the Dark Planet, they would have publicized it long ago."
Someone, their face filled with grief and indignation, cut off the doubter.
"There have long been rumors that Princess Yu Lan was a 3S-level female. I can’t believe they were actually true."
"She really was a 3S-level female... kind, gentle, and treated everyone as equals."
"Damn the Dark Planet! Damn those Star Thieves! To hell with them!"
In this battle, which had become one-sided with the sudden appearance of the Dark Force’s elite squad, a new turning point had finally arrived.
The incredulous Dark Force tried to unleash the black mist again to drive everyone mad.
But, to their surprise...
"It’s not working!"
"The black mist has no effect!"
"What’s happening? Retreat, retreat! Aaargh!"
