Exclusive Possession – CH 066

Chapter 66.

The fighter jet plummeted downwards, everything outside the window flashing by like fleeting shadows. I stood at the cockpit door, ready to jump.

A stern voice came through the channel from the Air Force communications officer: “Captain Morin, stop immediately! This is a no-fly zone!” My heart tightened, and when I turned around, I saw Morin staring at me with his big red eyes, looking bewildered and anxious.

“After I jump, you stop flying.” My voice was still choked with emotion, and tears seemed about to spill over at any moment. “Trust me, Morin, I…I will save him.”

Morin nodded slowly, his flat, metallic face expressionless, appearing somewhat dazed, and his narrow, thin body seemed tense and stiff.

His appearance made my heart ache, and I turned away from him, saying, “Open the door.”

The hatch opened in front of me, and a gust of wind rushed in, making everything on the ground blurry in my turbulent vision. Just as I was about to leap out, I heard sobbing behind me. Turning around, I saw Morin with his head down, his hands covering his face, and he was sobbing uncontrollably.

Sensitive as he was, he must have noticed much.

My heart ached, my body lurched forward, and I plummeted into the air.

The high-speed descent lasted only a moment, and then the white light enveloped me and brought me to a stop. Then, like a cannonball, I shot straight toward Mu Xian on the ground in front of me!

From afar, the undulating white palace buildings resembled flat toys built from building blocks; the people on the ground looked as small as ants. And high in the sky, a blue network of spiritual energy had already taken shape.

Directly ahead, a clear beam of light pierced the sky, with the most dazzling sphere at its base being Mu Xian. He looked as if he were nailed to those two tightly clasped hands by the beam of light, which made me feel even more foreboding.

No, I had to help him; I had to save him. How could I let him die?

King, I’m sorry, I can’t do exactly what you want. You said that only by killing him, by killing all the psychics, could we completely sever the possibility of the superpowered era. But kill him? Kill that proud, upright, and gentle Mu Xian? Just thinking about it made me feel like my bones were being torn apart.

Sister, you once said that anything was possible with human effort, so even with your meager remaining troops, you faced the vast army of the Stan people without fear and bravely faced death. It was because you believed that the light of the universe would eventually arrive, even if the price was your utter destruction.

So this time, Sister, let me believe in myself, okay?

I believed that as long as Mu Xian lived, the Stan tribe, under his leadership, would never fall into darkness and would never evolve into super predators.

He would be the backbone of this universe; he would change history!

I felt an overwhelming surge of grief coursing through my body. I wanted to fly there, to share in the immense energy of “Stan’s Rebirth,” and to help him through this difficult time!

It was getting closer and closer. I saw countless people on the ground looking up, seeing his blurry yet handsome silhouette within the sphere of light…

Suddenly, I heard a low shriek, and then felt as if I had been hit hard on the back by a heavy hammer, as if my internal organs had been dislocated.

My mind went blank for a moment, and I saw a long trail of gunfire remaining in the sky. I felt like a leaf, tossed high into the air by the air currents and then falling heavily to the ground.

I had been hit by a shell! It was the air force!

No! I want to be by his side! I want to protect him!

I felt no pain, but the violent impact of the shells and the mental membrane made my head spin, and my chest and abdomen felt like they were being pounded. I stared dazedly at the magnificent blue net of light in the sky, feeling as if my heart was being torn apart.

With a “thud,” I fell to the ground, coughing violently, and immediately struggled to my feet. Everything in front of me was swaying. Emerald green grass, elegant white buildings, and a clear, calm lake surrounded me silently—it was a palace, not far from Jade Mountain!

But as soon as I stood firm, countless armed soldiers wielding guns and cannons surged out from behind the buildings and from the woods, surrounding me at a distance of about ten meters. In the sky, several fighter jets, accompanied by the low rumble of their engines, flew in from all directions, their black cannons aimed at me.

I felt as if my heart and liver were being torn apart—even with my mental strength, how could I escape such intense firepower? Explanation would be futile. My mental strength silently gathered, and my whole body shone with white light—I had no choice but to break through!

Suddenly, a thin but familiar figure quickly stepped out from among the soldiers. His red eyes were like two still pools of water, and his body was taut. He looked at me without saying a word.

“Mop!” I rushed forward but was stopped by a soldier’s gun. “Let me go immediately! His life is in danger; there’s no time to lose!”

Mop’s eyes widened instantly, and he hissed, “What did you say?”

I gritted my teeth and said, “Stan’s new life energy is too strong! His body will overload and explode; he will die immediately! Let me go help him! Quickly! Trust me!”

The surrounding soldiers exchanged bewildered glances. Mop stared intently at me for a moment, a look that filled me with anxiety. Suddenly, he shoved aside the soldier blocking my way and ordered in a deep voice, “Escort the Princess there! Quickly! Order the fleet to cease attack!”

He believed me! He actually believed me!

I felt a huge weight lifted off my shoulders.

The planes in the sky turned together, the soldiers began running in formation, and my body suddenly took off, flying towards Jade Mountain with those fighter jets.

But after flying only a short distance, they saw another group of soldiers rushing out from behind the palace ahead. Dark gray uniforms and gold belts around their waists—the Emperor’s personal guards!

“You go first!” Mop said in a deep voice, without even glancing at me, and led most of his men to meet them.

I didn’t look at him again, nor did I care whether he had a conflict with the Royal Guard.

I could only move forward, desperately forward, seizing the last moments to fly towards Mu Xian!

I flew over the white rooftops, the scenery flashing past below. The crowd standing around the rocky mountain saw me and began to stir uneasily. Not far away, the black “Stan’s Rebirth” stood like a behemoth, emitting a deafening roar that seemed to shake the entire planet.

My eyes filled with tears. Finally, I flew over the heads of countless people and landed on the rocky mountain, a few meters behind him.

He stood with his head held high, his tall and upright figure like a jade pillar, bathed in blue light. His fair and delicate profile looked like a still statue, his dark eyes deep and still, as if… as if he were dead.

I was so scared that my soul almost left my body, and I rushed over to hug him! However, the blue light around his body was so hot that it made my whole body tremble. I suddenly shrank back, then gathered my mental energy, stretched out my hands wrapped in light, and hugged his waist.

“Mu Xian! Let me help you!” I shouted.

The moment the two lights came into contact, I felt a jolt throughout my body, as if an electric current was flowing from the blue light. My whole body ached and felt numb, as if thousands of ants were biting me.

I forced myself to remain still and, slowly, with great difficulty, cut the white light into the blue beam of light.

Finally, I hugged him, and my whole body entered the blue pillar of light, pressing tightly against him.

But he didn’t move at all; his eyes were fixed, as if he couldn’t feel my presence at all.

He was unconscious!

A chill ran through me, and I hugged him tightly. A searing heat emanated from above me; I knew it was the immense energy generated by “Stan’s Rebirth.” I desperately channeled my spiritual power to its limit, wanting to share his burden and bear his weight.

But after a while, my heart grew colder and colder.

I couldn’t feel it.

I couldn’t feel any energy being transferred into my body; I couldn’t handle it or share it!

He remained motionless, though his body was growing increasingly hot!

This wouldn’t work!

I felt as if my whole heart was about to fall into hell. I turned my head in panic, only to see many people looking at us anxiously.

Oh, right, how could I forget? Mu Xian said that the energy frequency of “Stan Newborn” was designed specifically for the mental field of the Stan people to be compatible with it. But my mental field and frequency were completely different from theirs! How could I share the burden for him?

So I couldn’t help him? Could I only watch him die? Could I only watch the era of superpowers arrive?

My vision blurred instantly. In the blurred vision, his face was quiet, as if he was just looking up, but the body in my arms was burning me with a tearing pain.

Now, was killing him the only option? Killing my Mu Xian?

He was already in my arms, and his mental power was fully unleashed. He could kill me easily now.

In this way, at least his mental power wouldn’t erupt; in this way, at least my race, and other races in the galaxy, still had hope of survival.

Kill him?

No!

I heard myself let out a hoarse, almost broken roar, and I hugged his body tightly with both hands, using all my strength to drag him out of the pillar of light!

Take him out! Sabotage the rebirth plan! Even if Stan Star fell into darkness, even if the Stan Empire was destroyed, he and a small group of people would still survive, and their superpowers wouldn’t be activated!

I was taking him out!

The blue light flowed like water, and the heat above our heads was continuous. My white light grew increasingly intense and scorching, slowly enveloping us and forming a white sphere.

The immense energy crashed down, causing my chest to churn. I endured it, hearing myself let out broken groans. Blood trickled from the corner of my mouth, but instantly vaporized into a faint red mist in the white light.

Get him out! Take him out!

I felt an unprecedented surge of immense power, as if it were emanating from every pore of my body, and an uncontrollable roar erupted from deep within my chest. The sphere of spiritual energy suddenly trembled, my vision blurred, and I felt as if I had been violently pulled out of a powerful suction chamber and thrown backward by inertia!

Suddenly, everything went dark, and I couldn’t see anything clearly anymore. I could only feel our bodies being pushed back rapidly. I heard surprised and angry shouts from the crowd below, and I heard Mop’s deep and anxious voice: “Your Highness! What are you doing?”

Suddenly, my back slammed hard against something hard and smooth, like a wall. I heard a cracking sound behind me, and finally, our bodies came to a stop.

My eyes, still stung by the bright light, gradually cleared. I then realized that we had flown quite a distance backward and crashed right into the base of the index finger of the hand sculpture before coming to a stop.

The blue beam of light ahead vanished into thin air. The summit of Jade Mountain returned to its empty, tranquil state, while the blue light net high above seemed to have been struck with tremendous force, beginning to shake and flicker!

The blue network had been compromised!

Just then, Mu Xian’s body suddenly moved, and he reached out to rub his forehead, raised his head, and saw the view of the sky.

I felt his body suddenly stiffen, and he abruptly turned to look at me.

His face was as pale as paper, and his eyes, filled with shock, understanding, and even a hint of dazedness, made my heart clench.

No, that wasn’t how Mu Xian was!

“Mu Xian, listen to me…”

“Your Highness! Return to your position immediately!” someone shouted from the foot of the rocky hill. “The others can’t hold on! Ten people have already died in the explosion!”

“Your Highness! Leave immediately, or we will open fire!” Mop’s shocked and angry voice rang out from behind me. I turned around in a panic and saw several fighter jets rising from behind the mountain. Mop was standing on one of them, his gun pointed at me!

Did he also think I was lying to him? Did he think I approached Mu Xian just to sabotage the Blue Network?

Just then, Mu Xian’s hoarse, barely audible voice rang out: “Run!” I looked up abruptly and saw a fleeting, sorrowful glint in his dark, night-like eyes. His face had turned cold and indifferent. He resolutely turned his head, and his body suddenly leaped into the air, flying towards the location where the pillar of light had been!

He thought I came to destroy Stan, and he told me to hurry up and leave. He told me to hurry up and leave?

I choked up instantly: “Don’t go! Mu Xian, don’t go! You will die!”

But he didn’t turn around. His tall body was taut and straight. In an instant, he flew back to his original position. His face was extremely gloomy, and his handsome features were full of ferocity—how sad he must have been? How painful must he have been?

But he didn’t even look at me. With a wave of his hand, a blue beam of light shot out from his body, as if his life was constantly flowing away.

I couldn’t bear to watch any longer, so my body shot into the air and flew towards him!

Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a golden, rapid light coming from my side and behind! Another shell! My body came to an abrupt stop, but the shell still struck the psychic energy sphere at an angle.

How could I let myself fly out again, be blocked by them, and not be able to get close to Mu Xian? I only felt the spiritual energy sphere suddenly tremble, and then I saw the cannonball burst into a dazzling flame, and then… disappeared in the white light.

My back jolted violently, and I spat out a mouthful of blood. But ahead, Mu Xian’s pillar of light had reformed, rapidly extending upwards to connect with the blue light net. He stared at me with a gloomy expression, his handsome face almost distorted, his mouth silently uttering a single word: “Go!”

I turned my head slightly, a little dazed, and saw Mop’s and the others’ planes, with dense lines of fire strafing me.

But as I stood inside the sphere of spiritual energy, the whole world seemed to fall silent. I could vaguely sense the intense firepower striking the sphere, and I felt my body churning with discomfort.

There’s no time to explain.

Later, after I rescued him, I would explain it to him, and he would understand, right?

Understand my reasons for destroying his race and his empire.

Or perhaps, he would never believe again. How could he believe? A wife who had traveled across millions of years to come and kill him?

We were finished; we were really finished.

But as long as he was alive, that was all that mattered.

As long as more people could live, that was good.

Relying on the combat skills I remembered, my left hand blazed with light as I unleashed an extremely hot shockwave into the air. The shockwave, like a white scimitar, cleaved towards the blue pillar of light above Mu Xian’s head!

He was probably completely unprepared when the blue beam of light was abruptly severed, and the blue net above his head began to sway precariously once more. He raised his pale face to look at me, his dark eyes cold and devoid of any warmth, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

He stared at me, and with a single, merciless wave of his hand, a sharp, powerful blue shockwave rushed towards me! My heart clenched with grief, and light rose from my hands, creating a vast, white wave of light that crashed into his shockwave!

The two enormous light blades collided violently, and the shattered beams scattered like meteors, instantly filling the entire sky. The air trembled as if on water, and the earth seemed to be illuminated by the blinding light.

I felt as if my entire body had been violently run over by a wheel, a metallic taste rising in my throat, and I coughed up a mouthful of blood, almost losing my balance. Not far away, his body and face were also bathed in the shimmering light, and dark red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth again.

We stood facing each other, silently gazing at one another.

Blue and white light shone brightly in the air, creating a dazzling and beautiful scene. But all I could feel was his profound and powerful force, relentlessly pressing down on my mental energy field. I couldn’t utter a single word, and I could barely breathe.
