Even the temple servants, who were usually very strict, felt a flicker of pity for them.
However, the servants also knew that these males had crossed a line they should have never touched.
Only the servants truly understood the depth of the High Priest’s anger. They knew it was actually a "mercy" that he hadn’t killed them right there on the spot, but they also knew that sending them to the Prison Star was a slow death sentence.
Getting out of that place was impossible. The Prison Star was backward, with no high technology and no medicine.
Worst of all, it was filled with deadly pollution. There were active pollution zones everywhere and dangerous, mutated beasts roaming the dark forests.
Going there meant you would eventually lose your sanity and completely succumb to your beast side. You would turn into a mindless monster before you eventually died in the dirt.
Feng Yanshen didn’t stay to listen to their wailing. He waved his hand dismissively, and the temple guards immediately began dragging the screaming men away.
He didn’t care about their tears or their futures. His mind was already drifting back to the Inner Sanctum, where a certain purple-haired female was sleeping in his bed.
He turned to a junior priest, his tone icy. "Clean this hall. I do not want to smell their filth when the Kings arrive for the official meeting."
"Yes, High Priest!" The servant hurried to obey.
Feng Yanshen stood alone for a moment in the center of the hall. The air was still thick with the scent of fear, but he ignored it. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
He needed to prepare for the arrival of the Four Kings. They would be coming for Yue Yue, and he had no intention of letting a single one of them even see her shadow.
He adjusted his robes, his heart feeling a strange, heavy tug. He had exiled those men for looking at her, but he knew the Kings would be much harder to deal with.
They had power, they had armies, and they had the right to request a mating. A cold light flashed in his eyes. Let them come, he thought.
They will find that the Temple is not a place where they can take what belongs to me.
Han Soi finally stepped out of the high-risk Decontamination Chamber after finishing his mission in the deep Polluted Zone. His body was covered in grime, and his armor was cracked, but the moment he reconnected his personal terminal to the StarNet, his heart nearly stopped.
The entire digital world was exploding with images of his wife. Every news channel, from the Imperial Daily to the Galactic Sentinel, was flashing the same headline: The Return of the Goddess: Dual S+++ Miracles in the Grounds of the Holy Temple.
Han Soi stood frozen in the military base, his eyes wide as he scrolled through the data. He was completely dumbfounded.
He had always known his Yue Yue was special...he had felt her unique energy during their night together...but to see those S+++ ranks officially displayed on the StarNet was a different story.
Then, shock turned into a burning, white-hot rage. He saw the video clips of the riot at the temple. He saw the sea of crazed Orcs trying to storm the stage where his wife stood looking small and terrified.
"Damn it!" he growled, slamming his fist against the metal wall of the docking bay.
Because of this cursed mission in the Polluted Zone, he had been stuck in a communications blackout.
He had missed the most important moment of Yue Yue’s life, and worse, he hadn’t been there to protect her from those filthy beasts. Yue Yue must have been so scared, he thought, his chest tightening with guilt.
It was already the day after the ceremony. He was late. Without a second thought, he ignored his commanding officer and began the process to abandon his post. He needed to get back to the Temple immediately.
During the high-speed transit back to the capital, Han Soi sat in the cockpit of his scout ship, frantically scrolling through the Star Net.
He watched every frame of the ceremony until his eyes burned. When he saw the High Priest, Feng Yanshen, carrying Yue Yue away in his arms, Han Soi’s grip on his terminal nearly shattered the screen. freewebnσvel.cøm
He felt like he couldn’t breathe. He knew the entire empire would now be bowing at Yue Yue’s feet. She wasn’t just a female anymore; she was a national treasure that every power-hungry official would want to control.
As his ship entered the inner atmosphere, he had to submit his mission report to the Pollution Control Corporation (PCC) and the Imperial Defense Ministry.
But the response he got back wasn’t about the monsters he had killed or the data he had collected. Instead, the government officials were probing him about his marriage.
The Empire had already known about Han Soi’s secret wedding with Yue Yue. Now that she was revealed as a Dual S+++ female, the royal family was moving fast.
A message popped up on his screen from the Imperial Secretariat.
"Duke Han Soi, the Empress requests your presence. Her Majesty is interested in the welfare of your wife and wishes to send the Second Prince to the Temple to ’escort’ Lady Yue Yue back to the palace."
Han Soi’s blood boiled. He wanted to punch the screen.
The Empress didn’t care about Yue Yue; she wanted to send her son to woo his wife and steal her away for the royal bloodline! To them, Yue Yue was just a high-quality breeding asset to be traded.
"She is my wife," Han Soi hissed, his eyes glowing with a dangerous light. "If anyone thinks they can take her just because I was away for a few days, they are dead wrong."
He pushed the engines of his ship to the absolute limit, ignoring the warnings from the Traffic Control AI.
He didn’t care about the Empress, the PCC, or the military laws he was breaking. He only cared about getting to the temple that clearly failed to safeguard his wife and ripping his wife out of the High Priest’s cold hands.
He will not allow her to live there for even a second.
