Chapter 1245 - Energy for Rebirth

Xia Ling stroked her daughter’s hair and smiled. “Be good.”

Li Rui asked, “So… do you want me to follow you to the training camp?”

Xia Ling stroked her hair again. “Be good, let your Second Brother accompany you.” It wasn’t just about letting him play it cool in front of the girls, but rather, with Wei Lingnan having his eyes on her, who was to say what could happen? They were more at ease knowing that Li Rui was with her.

Xia Yingluo understood this as well. After being held by her mother for a long while, she finally nodded reluctantly.

This time, Li Rui was the one making things difficult. “Who says I have to go with you just because you want me to? Let me hear you call me Second Bro.”

“Bad Second Bro.”

“Nope, not going with you.”

“… Nice Second Bro.” Xia Yingluo gave in.

Only then did Li Rui grin. “That’s a good girl.”

Wei Lingnan was just like a time bomb in everyone’s heart, causing panic and uneasiness.

In the garden, Wei Lingnan looked coldly at Xia Moyan, who was dressed in a female outfit and sipping tea. “Who allowed you to wear her clothes?”

Wei Lingnan’s tone became even colder. “Need I ask? Since you’re here, you’ve definitely swapped her out. There must be something wrong with today’s guest-checking department.”

Xia Moyan said, “So you’re not stupid.”

Wei Lingnan shot him an unpleasant look. “You will pay for your doings.” He had been too careless as to underestimate the collaborative power of the Li’s and Xia’s. They actually managed to swap Xia Yingluo out in his territory. He was enraged. All the security officers on duty must be punished, but even that would not bring Xia Yingluo back—her family already knew what he was, they were sure to protect her well.

Xia Moyan wasn’t the least bit bothered by his threats. “I’ll be waiting for you here.”

Wei Lingnan turned around. “Come with me.”

This was the planet that Wei Lingnan had attempted to show Xia Yingluo, but she’d fallen unconscious.

“The Skatana planet,” Wei Lingnan told Xia Moyan. “This is my homeland, and Ah Luo’s as well.”

Xia Moyan followed him as they set foot on that planet. There were strange creatures all around, and faraway cries, as well as the smell of blood, traveled to them. Xia Moyan’s constantly poker face flinched a little.

“These are?” He pointed towards those weird creatures.

Wei Lingnan said, “The Skatana species, the original form of me and Ah Luo. Don’t ask me to transform before your eyes, it’s too much of a waste of energy. But I’ve transformed in front of Ah Luo before, you can always ask her when you get back if you don’t believe me.”

Xia Moyan didn’t think of not believing him.

At this stage, Wei Lingnan had no reason to lie to him.

As The Preceptor, he’d heard about Wei Lingnan’s existence from his father and elders since he was a child, and was inclined to believe in aliens and other beings. What worried him was how Xia Yingluo was involved in this. “By Ah Luo, you mean my niece, Xia Yingluo? How can she be of your species? She’s a human that Xiao Ling birthed after carrying her for nine whole months.”

“Is there anything special about Earth?” Xia Moyan felt that the answer was coming.

“Of course, Earth is very special.” Wei Lingnan said, “I felt energy fluctuation that allowed for rebirth.”

“Energy fluctuation for rebirth?” Xia Moyan had never heard of something like this. He was attentive. “Tell me more about it.”

Wei Lingnan looked at him. “Humans are a weak race. Even you, protector of your planet, are unable to sense it.”

Xia Moyan was unhappy. “Humans are a weak race? We have that rare form of energy you were talking about.”

Wei Lingnan sneered. “Maybe humans have their uniqueness and possibly limitless potential, but I have to say this—you people are fortunate that Earth lies in the far end of the universe, otherwise you’d have been destroyed by the intelligent civilizations a long time back.”

Xia Moyan frowned but did not rebuke.

It was a fact that they knew very little—or rather, nothing at all—about other civilizations in the universe.

And this situation didn’t seem very promising.

“Go on, when did you start sensing the energy for rebirth? When the Xia ancestors saw you for the first time hundreds of years back?”
