Chapter 158: Beast Harvesting Farm

Translator: Kingbao  Editor: DarkGem

Due to the appearance of the first generation bloodling, Mu Xuan ended the galaxy tour prematurely. He immediately informed the Elders Council, sending people to the Heavenly Planet for investigation.

A first generation bloodling that had ambiguous views about his own race was indeed worth the attention. Besides, it had been such a long time since the bloodlings had left earth, so why hadn’t anyone heard of him? Where exactly did he come from?

Yao Si started to form conjectures. Perhaps he was like her and had accidentally fallen asleep for many years, which allowed him to go unnoticed.

However, Mu Xuan shot it down due to the Rainbow Pond in Heavenly Planet. Rainbow Pond had always been a mystery, with a general presumption being that it was a natural occurrence. However, that man had said that he was harvesting something there… and the half-formed beast had to have been connected to him. It was probably taken care of by him. For something like that to go unnoticed, he had to have technology that surpassed the current galactic standards.

It wasn’t something a recently awakened bloodling would be able to do.

Ever since they returned, Yao Si could sense Mu Xuan’s anxiety. It was unlike before with Li Zheng, since Li Zheng was just a fourth generation bloodling. The newcomer was a first generation! Even though Mu Xuan had awakened the ancestral blood and would definitely defeat him in a battle, he had an Achilles heel—her.

Even though that man had called her a bastard, he didn’t seem to hate the entire bloodling race since revenge at this point in time would be a little late. Instead, he seemed nonchalant, even if his disgust was apparent. However, his attitude toward Mu Xuan was totally different. Besides, he had mentioned…

“Mu Xuan, what’s a pure blood?” Yao Si couldn’t seem to figure it out. She had never come across such a term. Wasn’t the only difference between the bloodings their generation?

“He was probably referring to the ancestral blood that runs in me.” Mu Xuan frowned while taking her hands into this. “I’m the only bloodling that awakened the ancestral blood while his blood… seemed weird.”

“Weird?” Yao Si stilled. What does that mean?

Mu Xuan’s brows slammed downwards. After half a minute, he seemed to have found a suitable explanation. “Bloodlings are all connected by the bloodline. Younger bloodlings aren’t able to resist the control from senior bloodlings, but he… didn’t have any connection! He seemed… totally different from us.”

“Different?” Yao Si exclaimed. “He isn’t a bloodling?”

“He is indeed a bloodling, but…” His face sunk as he sighed. He caressed her head. “Maybe I’m confused since it’s been a while since I last saw bloodlings from the first generation? I can only be sure after we manage to find him.”

Yao Si was getting increasingly confused. Their problems seemed to be escalating. When she remembered how the person had just disappeared, she couldn’t help asking, “Oh right, what exactly is his ability?”

“It’s mirage! His real body wasn’t on the Heavenly Planet.” It was how he managed to disappear so suddenly, his form had been just an illusion he had created. “But… he definitely has more than one ability.”

“He has other abilities?”

“That isn’t all.” Mu Xuan’s expression turned grave. “He should have a full-series like me.”

“…” Full-series!

(⊙_⊙)

Yao Si suddenly felt as though a strong boss had made its appearance.

“Even though I can’t be sure of his motives, his attitude toward the bloodlings is definitely hostile. Sisi…” Just as he was about to start nagging, the notification of a message rang.

He switched open his optical computer. Yao Qian, who had been tasked to investigate the matter, appeared on the screen.

“Your Majesty, the results of the Heavenly Planet investigation are out!” Yao Qian reported anxiously once the call went through, fully aware of Yao Si’s presence.

“Results?” Mu Xuan asked.

“Your Majesty, you were right, that black hole is indeed a portal.” Yao Qian pointed to the black hole in the middle of the planet’s fragments. “But after running some tests, we found that the location isn’t fixed under normal frequencies. We can only get a rough estimate of the location—near the border of the Galaxy.”

“Border…” Mu Xuan sank into a moment of silence before saying, “What about the beast? How’s the investigation?”

“That’s even weirder.” Yao Qian’s expression crumbled as he reported the data with a hint of surprise. “We restored the beast’s data and evaluated its genes.”

Mu Xuan opened the data, and his frown deepened.

“It’s just a young beast, no… to be exact, it’s an embryo that is about 50% developed. It should have been fully formed in about two years. By then, it would be at least ten times bigger. A beast this size could only be—”

“Galactic beast,” Mu Xuan interrupted.

Yao Si stilled, sucking in a cold breath. A Galactic beast? Wasn’t those only found in the abyss zone since they could grow big enough to engulf a planet? Why was it on the Heavenly Planet? Even though it was public land, it was considered to be in a centralized region that was eons away from the abyss zone.

“We suspect that the black hole would be used to transport the beast over to the border.” Yao Qian’s face darkened, “That beast wasn’t from the abyss.”

“Which means…”—Mu Xuan sighed—”Heavenly Planet has always been a harvesting farm for the Galactic beasts.”

“Yes.”

“…” Yao Si.

“…” Mu Xuan.

Yao Si could feel her heart sink. Even though she had considered the idea that the bastard had been using the Rainbow Pond as a harvesting farm, she had never expected the beasts he raised to be Galactic beasts!

“Your Majesty…” Yao Qian’s face fell as he hesitated. “According to my tests, the half-formed Galactic beast that you killed is of SSS level and above. A beast of this level has never been seen in the abyss, which means that they have been experimenting and advancing their knowledge. Besides, based on how often the Galactic beasts appear, there should be more than one of such harvesting farms.”

“I understand. Inform the Alliance and get them to investigate similar planets!”

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Yao Qian did a salute upon completion of the report. However, his gaze suddenly flickered over to Yao Si.

“Anything else?” Mu Xuan frowned.

He hesitated slightly, taking another peek at Yao Si before stuttering, “It isn’t anything important, but someone wanted me to pass a message to Her Highness…”

Before he could finish his sentence, he was pushed out of the screen. A stunning face replaced him.

“Sisi! You’re Sisi, right? Sisi… I’m Lian…”

Thud!

Mu Xuan turned the call off in a flash.

He should have split the aves planet as well!
