Chapter 346: Chapter 346 How Did the Big Wings Appear Again...
Lan Ruochen nodded quickly, "Of course, we won’t go over and disturb her now, hoping she’ll rest well. Once she’s better, we’ll come to meet her."
Gu Jue nodded in acknowledgment.
The people from Mermaid Planet walked out in droves.
In the living room, only Gu Jue and Gu Zilan remained.
Gu Zilan stood up, "Uncle, I must return to the Imperial Palace. However, I always feel that the people from Mermaid Planet are a bit too attentive."
They deliver a kingship from a thousand miles away.
Is this kingship too hot to handle, or what?
He said, "I tested Lan Ruochen, and it seems he truly intends to give the kingship to Auntie."
Gu Jue squinted his eyes, watching the people from Mermaid Planet board their flying vehicle.
He said, "I’ve had Bai Ze eavesdrop on their conversations."
"Hmm."
Lan Ruochen and the other Mermaid envoys got on the flying vehicle.
They had been temporarily arranged to stay in a high-class hotel in the center of the main star.
Lan Ruochen sighed on the flying vehicle.
"I always feel that we won’t get past Commander Gu’s scrutiny. If Su Wan doesn’t agree to take this kingship, I don’t know whether to be happy or not."
It seemed like Ada was a bit tired.
If it weren’t for something extremely important, he would not leave Mermaid Planet for half a step.
Ada sat in his chair, resting with his eyes closed.
He said slowly, "The appearance of the Insectoids proves that Queen Gaia’s prophecy was not wrong. Look at our Mermaid Planet now, we’re developing well, but as you saw in the inter-school tournament, our combat capabilities are the worst."
He opened his eyes, his murky gaze flashed with many a frustration.
"I’m nearing the age limit for Beast Transformation, but you all are still so young! Over the years, every single prophecy of the Queen has come true. If no Mermaid with a golden tail had appeared, it would be one thing. But now that she has appeared... she will save our Mermaid Planet!"
In Queen Gaia’s original prophecy, if a Beastman with a golden tail appeared,
She would be the Queen’s successor!
She would also lead the people of Mermaid Planet to drive away the terrifying Insectoids.
And now, the Insectoid appeared.
The Queen’s successor also appeared...
Lan Ruochen’s feelings were complicated, for he had just learned of this prophecy.
He raised his head and looked at the flourishing and mighty Federal Empire.
"What if Su Wan doesn’t agree? Or what if Commander Gu and the others don’t agree?"
If it were them and if Su Wan really was the one who could save Mermaid Planet and defeat the Insectoids,
They would definitely not let her go!
Besides, all of Su Wan’s family and friends are still here...
Ada closed his eyes again.
"Maybe that would spell the doom of our Mermaid Planet at the hands of the Insectoids..."
Lan Ruochen’s mood also became heavy.
Their conversation was transmitted to Gu Jue and Gu Zilan by Bai Ze with not a single word missed.
Gu Zilan had just arrived at the Imperial Palace when he heard the conversation broadcast through his earpiece and fell silent for a few seconds.
Gu Zilan: "Uncle, what do you plan to do?"
Gu Jue: "I will tell Wanwan and let her make her own decision."
Gu Zilan was extremely impressed!
"Uncle, I admire you so much. Honestly, if it were me, I would definitely not let my wife go."
Firstly, it’s dangerous.
Secondly, it’s still dangerous!
The mission to save Mermaid Planet was originally Queen Gaia’s.
And not Su Wan’s!
Gu Jue thought of his little wife, his eyes filled with a starry sea.
He said, "No matter what Wanwan does, I’ll support her unconditionally. Even if she says she wants to attack the Insectoids right now, I’ll immediately suit up in my mecha and fight alongside her!"
Gu Zilan said sheepishly, "The main point is, would my little aunt actually attack the Insectoids? Ah, forget it, you’re right. Let’s let her decide for herself."
If it really was Her Majesty the Queen who had chosen her successor in the obscurity of fate.
Then, perhaps there truly was something within Su Wan that was of the same kind as the Queen.
But thinking about it now, Queen Gaia was truly impressive,
having foretold the existence of the Insectoids hundreds of years ago...

Lin Ranyue didn’t stay long at Commander Gu’s residence. She wanted her daughter to have a good rest.
Sheng An, Luo Jina, and other classmates were happy to hear that Su Wan had woken up, but they did not rush to visit her.
They hoped Su Wan could get some rest.
Other visitors also postponed their visits.
Everyone unanimously wanted Su Wan to rest a few more days.
But... as a fish these past few days, Su Wan’s life of eating, sleeping, swimming, and then eating again was incredibly boring.
Now that she was awake, even though she looked a bit weak, she felt her spiritual power was invincible and abundant.
She even took her son, Little Gu Chen, for a few laps in the pool.
But she was fished out of the water by Gu Jue, who had finished his official duties.
Gu Jue held her waist with one arm and supported the grand and ornate golden fishtail with the other, saying indisputably, "You just woke up; you can’t swim for so long."
Su Wan clasped his shirt front, "Just let me swim a couple more laps, one lap, okay? If you’re worried, swim with me!"
Looking at his little wife’s watery eyes,
the austere, very principled Commander nodded his head.
Su Wan contentedly swam three more laps, and when her husband picked her up to leave again, she didn’t struggle.
She also said to the wolf-eared baby who had just climbed ashore, "Xiaochen, go take a bath and then come sleep with mommy."
The wolf-eared baby was shaking the water off his tail and was about to nod.
Then he looked up and saw the icy coldness in his father’s eyes.
The perked-up wolf ears immediately flopped down.
Little Gu Chen: "Not today; I haven’t slept well these past few days worrying about mommy. I want to sleep by myself."
Su Wan felt it was a pity, "Alright then, go back to sleep early."
Then she was carried away by Gu Jue.
Upon entering the bedroom, Su Wan thought Gu Jue would put her down, but he carried her all the way into the bathtub.
The water in the bathtub was just at the right temperature.
Su Wan looked up and noticed that her Commander Gu had somehow sprouted a pair of immaculate white wings.
Su Wan: "...You said I should rest."
Swimming is not allowed, but preparing an exclusive medicine is?
The snow-white wings folded in slightly as Gu Jue tenderly wet his little wife’s hair, "What are you thinking about? I was worried you would get cold from the breeze."
Su Wan was a bit slow to react, maybe because she had spent too long in the fish tank before.
She said, "What?"
Gu Jue: "You’re frail; I’ll help you wash. When we’re done, you can rest, and I won’t disturb you."
Su Wan paused for a few seconds.
Wait...
Commander Gu, this sudden hands-on approach is a bit out of character for you!
Her cheeks blushing, she said, "No, no need, I can do it myself. See, I swam a few laps just now, didn’t I? And I still have plenty of energy."
