Her self from ten years ago was more immature and also much sharper.
She was a true Insectoid Princess, a true Heaven’s Favorite Daughter.
“Yeah, I’m an idiot.”
Su Ling laughed bitterly.
She remembered.
She remembered everything.
Earth was her past life.
In that Samsara of All Beings, she became the daughter of Bai Wei and Su Yao.
But the Insect Hive, in order to completely control her, fabricated a puppet, swapped her out, and trapped her in the Earth Illusion, cycling through her past life over and over again.
The surrounding scene began to shatter.
Her self from ten years ago also grew dim.
“Idiot, you’ve finally remembered everything.”
She smiled happily, wildly.
“Remember to find Miao Miao. Don’t lose her again, idiot.”
They were biological sisters from the beginning.
So even if she lost her previous memories, when she saw Miao Miao, she still liked her so much.
Even though Miao Miao’s memories of her sister from childhood were also very blurry, when she met Su Ling again, she was still so dependent on her.
Su Ling’s long eyelashes trembled slightly.
A pair of heterochromatic eyes slowly opened.
One pink, one pale.
She lowered her head slowly, looking at her completely restored body, a flicker of surprise passing through her eyes.
She pressed her lips together and glanced at the Magic Cube beside her, forming a guess in her heart.
Now she had some additional memories.
A set of memories from a Princess who had hatched without Earth memories and was carefully guided by Bai Wei.
This feeling was very strange.
Her self-identity hadn’t changed at all.
But it seemed like something had been added.
Confidence. Dignity.
Insectoid Princess, Heaven’s Favorite Daughter…
Fuliji…
All of this was her.
There was no conflict.
She slowly stood up.
Picked up the Magic Cube.
The moment she touched it, she was slightly stunned.
So that’s how it was.
Countless pieces of information flooded into her mind.
[Magic Artifact. Tier 4] E’zi Magic Cube (Permissions Not Fully Unlocked)
Able to record and preserve genetic data it comes into contact with, with the ability to transform into weapons and create life.
She was completely restored now—this must have been the result of the E’zi Magic Cube automatically protecting its master.
Of course, the Magic Cube’s permissions weren’t fully unlocked yet; for now, it could only transform into various weapons.
Su Ling focused her mind, and in the next moment, the Magic Cube began to twist and transform, shaping itself into a set of gray-green Daoist robes that draped over her body, while a cyan longsword appeared in her hand.
Su Ling held the sword horizontally; the polished blade reflected her heterochromatic eyes.
The E’zi Magic Cube had the ability to record and preserve genes.
And the abilities of the gene’s owner were also preserved by the Magic Cube.
It could store up to six at most.
And the current gene was exactly Luo Ganxue’s.
Su Ling felt very strange at the moment.
Even though she had never touched a sword before, her heart was overflowing with Sword Intent, and countless sword techniques surfaced in her mind.
“It’s just that this method of obtaining genes…”
Su Ling felt a bit helpless.
She had to press tightly against the target to obtain their purest Magic.
In other words… hanky-panky.
Back in the Lower City, she had taken protective measures, so even though she pressed against many Witches, it didn’t do anything.
Their Magic was all blocked by the Magic-Blocking Array, so she didn’t collect any.
And that night before, Luo Ganxue hadn’t used any protective measures at all, so she had completely collected the surging Magic from her body.
“Couldn’t there be another way? What if I get someone pregnant?!”
Su Ling gritted her teeth as she looked at the sword in her hand.
But the E’zi Magic Cube was also aggrieved.
For the Zerg, the best way to obtain genes was through Breeding.
But when it came to Witches… this was a bit too much.
“Huff! Forget it, forget it. At least Luo Qianxue’s gene is useful enough.”
Su Ling let out a breath.
She raised her sword.
Sword Intent surged.
The next moment.
Boom!—
The underground room exploded open.
“I’m back~”
The Original Owner stepped into the room.
“Back? So early?”
Suzuki looked confused.
“Meow!”
Suddenly, on the balcony, Hajimi’s fur bristled.
Su Yao also stared at Su Ling slowly walking toward her, her face pale.
“She’s not Ling Ling!”
Suzuki, who had just gotten out of bed, narrowed her pupils upon hearing this.
But in the next second, a small hand suddenly grabbed her throat and threw her away hard.
Then, the Original Owner kicked the pouncing Hajimi away.
“Tch, how did you guys figure it out?”
The Original Owner walked up to the trembling Su Yao and tilted her head.
“Long time no see, my mother~”
“It’s you!”
Su Yao’s voice trembled.
She recognized her.
“What’s wrong? I’m your real daughter. Why this reaction?”
“My real daughter died ten years ago. After that serious illness…”
Su Yao’s eyes grew moist.
Ten years ago, the daughter she loved most had vanished.
But Bai Wei kept insisting Su Ling was fine, so she had to suppress this fear deep inside.
But how could a mother not recognize her own daughter?
Even with the current Su Ling—the one who, to her, felt a long-lost familiarity—she knew in the end that this wasn’t her original daughter.
At least, not the Su Ling from ten years ago who would proudly show off what she learned that day with a tsundere expression.
She didn’t know what had happened to Su Ling.
Originally, she thought that the serious illness ten years ago caused Su Ling to develop Schizophrenia, creating multiple personalities, while the Main Personality fell into a deep sleep.
But later, her daughter never seemed to reappear again.
As if she had died completely.
And the one before her now was the one who appeared after the serious illness ten years ago.
Su Yao’s voice choked.
“I know you’re not my original Ling Ling…”
But she was still her daughter.
Su Yao wanted to hug her daughter in front of her, but was pushed away.
“What ‘serious illness ten years ago’?
I’ve always been like this.
Ha, I think you’ve been with that imposter for too long and forgotten that I’m your real daughter.”
In her memory, she was the genuine one.
She had no recollection of any serious illness ten years ago.
“Tch, typical biological mother. Whoever is good to you is your daughter, right? How pathetic.”
The Original Owner looked at the pitiful Su Yao with irritation.
But in the end, she just tied Su Yao up.
As for Suzuki, she fell asleep with one hit. Great sleep quality.
The Original Owner began searching the room.
Finally, she found a pink pearl.
The Heavenly Pearl.
“Finally found it.”
The corners of the Original Owner’s mouth curled up slightly.
In Ma Sha’s memories, she had learned that the Heavenly Pearl could open a passage between two universes.
That meant she could use the Heavenly Pearl to return to the Fourth Universe.
The Tyranid Swarm—it was time for them to welcome their true Empress.
She had used some tricks on that imposter to keep her body from dying.
As for her consciousness, according to the Insect Hive, it would serve as her replacement for breaking the Four Calamities, trapped forever within them.
In simple terms, that imposter would bear the Four Calamities for her, while she would gain the Insect Hive’s recognition, obtain the E’zi Gathering Order, return to the Fourth Universe, kill the False Empress, and become the true Zerg Queen.
“Seriously, couldn’t you just give it to me? Aren’t you the Insect Hive? Why make it so troublesome?”
The Original Owner couldn’t help complaining.
Couldn’t the Hive Mind just acknowledge her directly and hand over the E’zi Gathering Order?
The Hive Mind was speechless.
Didn’t it want to?
If Su Ling weren’t so hard to control, it wouldn’t have fabricated this imposter.
And it wasn’t that it didn’t want to give the imposter the Gathering Order directly; the order could only appear after the Four Calamities were broken.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble.
In its plan, Su Ling was just a tool.
Once the Four Calamities were broken and the Gathering Order obtained, it would be time for her to die.
“Now I just have to wait for that fake…”
At that moment.
Boom!—
The balcony exploded.
“Meow!”
“AAAAHHH!”
Hajimi, who was playing dead, and Suzuki were startled by the sudden event, screaming wildly.
Dust rose everywhere.
A large hole had been blown into the balcony.
The Original Owner ignored Hajimi and Suzuki, who were still playing dead, and stared fixedly outside the hole.
When she saw the scene outside, her pupils instantly contracted.
Impossible!
Outside, in the air, a white-haired girl was riding a sword through the sky.
The tips of the girl’s hair were blood-red.
She wore a gray-green Daoist robe, and her heterochromatic eyes were locked onto her.
It was Su Ling.
And behind Su Ling in the air was a swarm of student council Small Tricycles, letting out piercing alarm sounds.
Su Ling’s actions had completely violated the Academy’s School Rules.
The Student Council, like flies drawn to a stench, had almost all mobilized and followed Su Ling here.
But Su Ling and the Original Owner completely ignored them.
A pair of heterochromatic eyes.
A pair of cherry-colored eyes.
They stared at each other.
Killing Intent filled their gazes.
