The scene was extremely awkward…
Grand prince Yu Zhe’s excited voice echoed through the prison, his previous gaze of disdain replaced by an almost blinding glow. He lowered his head to plant a surprise kiss on Li Zheng’s hand he was still holding.
Li Zheng was visibly distressed, his entire being trembling in shock. He bounced backwards instantly, dashing straight behind Yao Si. Gritting his teeth, he grabbed the edges of her shirt in a death grip. “Dad, he’s a pervert!” he shrieked as he rubbed the goosebumps on his arms.
“Dad?” Grand prince Yu Zhe stilled, then turned to glance at Yao Si. When it finally dawned on him, he made a deep bow, greeting her firmly without any hesitation. “Father-in-law!”
“Get lost!”
“…” The crowd.

Li Zheng was straight, absolutely straight, or he wouldn’t have hit it off with the wife crazy Bai Yi. To hear a confession from a guy who also happened to be his enemy was definitely devastating for him. According to Bai Yi, Li Zheng vomited for three whole hours and scrubbed his hand five times after he returned. Yao Si and the others were regretful and sympathetic, but… they stood firm in their request for him to sacrifice himself.
╮(╯▽╰)╭
What a joke! How could they let such an amazing opportunity pass at such a stalemate!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter Li Zheng was frightened off, Yu Zhe returned to his original uncooperative state. If he hadn’t been trying to pry about Li Zheng every time Yao Si visited, she would have really wondered if he had identified the wrong contractor.
Strangely, Li Zheng’s attitude started to change at that time. Ever since he was converted, he had always been obedient, but this time, he would rather die than visit Yu Zhe at the prison cell. He continuously affirmed his sexual preferences, insisting on preserving his straight man’s dignity.
Everyone wasn’t sure who was worse off, Li Zheng or Yu Zhe…
For the sake of the Galaxy’s stability and world peace, Bai Yi volunteered to convince Li Zheng about his sexual preferences.… uhm, convince Li Zheng about his responsibilities!
“Don’t worry, Your Highness, leave it to me. I’ll make sure he’ll be there tomorrow.” Bai Yi tapped his chest with assurance, his smile confident.
Yao Si ran her eyes over him before asking suspiciously, “Why does it seem like… you’re particularly happy about Li Zheng being Yu Zhe’s contractor?”
“Ehem… we are eternal brothers, and I’m happy that he finally managed to leave his singlehood.”
Er… is it something to be happy about?
Bai Yi’s smile shone with sincerity. “I’m really thinking for his sake. After he manages to leave singlehood, the fact that my application for a converted cub would jump in line by one applicant isn’t that important, hahaha.”
“…” So that’s your motive! You’re going to sell your brother for a cub?
Yao Si rubbed her temples. She really couldn’t understand their brotherhood.
But Bai Yi had to have said something to Li Zheng, since the very next day, he really came over with a stoic expression. Almost immediately after he entered the prison cell, the conceited Yu Zhe bolted upright from his chair, his eyes sparkling. “Ah Zheng, you’re here.” His tone was soft and tender.
Li Zheng froze, his originally dark face starting to turn green. He pressed his palms tightly against his mouth as though on the verge of puking.
Yu Zhe, the main culprit, immediately asked with concern, “Are you alright? Is there anywhere you don’t feel well? Why is your face so pale? Is there something wrong? Will you tell me? You’re making me worried…”
Li Zheng’s green face darkened instantly, and his palms clenched into fists. His muscles tensed up when he turned to face Yao Si. He then forced a couple words through clenched teeth. “Dad, can I hit him?”
“Er… Cough, cough… Keep calm, keep calm!” She patted his shoulders casually, but was instantly faced with Yuzhe’s displeased glare as though she had just touched his property.
F*ck! Aren’t I your father-in-law?
“Er, Yu Zhe, the person you’re looking for is already here. Can you tell us now how to prevent the pure breeds from coming over?” sheasked directly.
Yu Zhe glanced at Li Zheng with loves truck eyes before turning to look at her. His face chilled slightly, but he replied. “Heh! Haven’t I already told you that even if the chances are slim, my race will still not give up on this universe? There isn’t any way to stop the invasion, so all you can do is to reduce the impact.”
He strolled back to his chair as he explained, then scanned the others in the cell. “Among you people… only him can stand a chance.” He pointed at Mu Xuan. “If my guess isn’t wrong, he was in a weak state at the time of our battle, but even so, he managed to control my ability which is a rare sight.
“However, even if he was at his best, he would only manage to stop two elder grand princes. There wouldn’t be a fighting chance against the other fifty-three grand princes. Besides, there are countless other bloodlings. As for the,…”
He smirked with disdain before turning back to face Yao Si. “Including you, none of you guys would stand a chance. Even if your mental strength is incredible, there won’t be enough time to activate it.”
Which meant that she was just a decoy!

The mood went down instantly. They had never expected for the ending to be as such. Was the war really unavoidable?
Based on Lin Long’s past behavior and the disdain from Yu Zhe, maybe the first target after the invasion would really be their group.
“Is there… really no way?” Li Zheng asked with a troubled expression.
“There is, there is, there is!” Yu Zhe’s eyes lit up instantly!
“…” Yao Si.
“…” Mu Xuan.
“…” Lin Long.
Everyone felt an urge to curse!
Was he doing it on purpose? Was he just trying to drag Li Zheng into the conversation?
“Others might not have a solution, but I do!” Yu Zhe’s gaze burned with intensity as he stared at Li Zheng. “Ah Zheng, don’t worry. Regardless of what happens, I will definitely protect you. You just have to—”
“Shut up!” Li Zheng’s veins were about to burst, and he seemed on the verge of bashing the grand prince to a bloody pulp. “Speak, what idea do you have?”
” Cough, according to my people’s style, it would definitely not be easy for them to give up on this universe,” he said gravely. “My late return would probably give them an idea of what happened, so it’ll be at most three days before they run over to this world.
“Even though there is only half of the total population left, all the grand princes are around. Our race has always been aggressive and always obey the strong, so the only option is…”
He scanned the crowd once more before pausing on Mu Xuan. He then articulated his next words very carefully. “A fight for honor!”
“…”
