Chapter 306: Chapter 305: Compromise and Negotiation

In the interrogation room, Si Yuting didn’t hold back his spiritual pressure at all and stepped closer, as the golden-haired, dark-skinned man sitting in the corner shrank back in fear.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that although the Insect Clan’s mimicked skin looked similar to humans’, their eyes had subtle differences, with very little white and light brown pupils surrounded by rings of dark brown patterns.

The previous interrogators didn’t dare to enter directly, only Si Yuting dared to overtly do so.

Si Yuting moved a chair and sat down in front of the Insect Clan member, taking out an elixir from the Space Button and opening it.

As expected, the Insect Clan member’s eyes flickered, showing a hint of greed.

Si Yuting placed the elixir in front of the Insect Clan member and retreated to his seat.

The Insect Clan member, warily eyeing Si Yuting, ultimately couldn’t resist the temptation and drank the elixir, visibly satisfied despite his efforts to conceal it.

A cold voice then arose: "The previous food and elixirs were also sent by my orders, you must have already relayed the message back to your Insect Mother."

The expression of the Insect Clan member turned to shock, his fangs slightly showing, as he also realized he’d been used.

Si Yuting took out another elixir identical to the previous one from the Space Button, but this time he didn’t open it.

"I wish to speak with your Insect Mother, please relay this message."

It was not a request, but an announcement.

The Insect Clan member naturally gave no reply, even showing scorn.

Si Yuting, unfazed, stood and left the interrogation room.

The Insect Clan member watched Si Yuting leave, or to be precise, watched the elixir in Si Yuting’s hand.

Upon exiting, Si Yuting coldly ordered the guard: "No need to bring food in for the next few days."

He then turned and instructed Cheng Feng: "Have someone keep watch, and inform me immediately if there’s any news."

Three days later, Cheng Feng knocked on Si Yuting’s door: "Boss, the Insect Clan says they want to meet you."

"Wait a moment," Si Yuting closed his intelligent brain’s 3D projection and tapped the keyboard a few more times, seemingly sending a message to someone.

Cheng Feng stood by the door, touching the blue hair on his forehead, his gaze intrigued.

If he wasn’t mistaken, the projection the boss was just viewing was a ring.

When Si Yuting came out, Cheng Feng directly asked, "Boss, did you and sister-in-law divorce or not?"

Si Yuting continued walking without stopping: "Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t."

Cheng Feng grinned behind him, but Si Yuting turned back, and Cheng Feng’s expression froze on his face.

"Hehe, boss, you believe I just had a facial spasm?"

Si Yuting gave him a cold glance, the meaning clear.

After leaving the interrogation room, Si Yuting’s expression finally relaxed a bit.

"Prepare the military meeting and the official press conference."

The meetings went on for an entire day at all levels. Si Yuting finished one meeting after another until 10 p.m., and Cheng Feng, even as a part-time assistant, was extremely busy.

The incident with the Insect Clan finally came to a conclusion. The Insect Mother would come to Abel Star for negotiations in three months.

Everyone could not help but show deep respect for Grand Marshal Si Yuting. The Canaan Empire had been attacked by the Insect Clan for thousands of years, and this was the first time there had been direct contact with the Insect Mother.

That night, Si Yuting went to the Imperial Palace, handed over the work to Si Chen, and announced his return to Abel Star.

The Insect Clan was taken back as well.

"Why not rest a few days before heading back to Abel Star?" Si Chen suggested.

"You’ve been working so intensively, and even with Energy Liquid, your body will get worn out. There’s no war and no urgent tasks right now, Yuting. You don’t need to rush back to the border," the Empress also sympathetically chimed in.

During this period, the Empress had seen all of Si Yuting’s work effort and was proud of her son’s excellence but also worried about his disregard for his health.

Si Yuting glanced at his Light Brain for the time, his expression indifferent: "No thanks, I still have matters to handle."

Qu Tong had been asleep until midnight, when a loud "boom" suddenly came from the balcony.

She got up to check and saw the entire solid wood railing had been forcefully broken by some unknown force and dropped to the ground below, where two figures fought inseparably on the open ground.

"Miss Jun, what happened?" The guard outside came upon hearing the noise.

"It’s nothing, probably the railing was old and fell off due to the wind in the middle of the night. Go back and keep watching."

"But..."

The guard wanted to say something else but retreated obediently after receiving Qu Tong’s cold gaze.

The two individuals hiding in the deep shadows of the trees came out, one after another.

Sai Pu’s purple figure disappeared on the spot, and the next second, he appeared next to Qu Tong.

"Sister, I’ve come to see you."

Sai Pu raised a seductive smile and reached to pull Qu Tong’s hand, but she slapped it away, "Scram!"

Sai Pu touched his hand, his blue eyes revealing sadness, looking just like a male fox spirit.

Rong Chengjue also lightly jumped onto the balcony, his gaze sinisterly fixated on Sai Pu.

Sai Pu glared back, "What are you looking at! If it weren’t for my power not being restored, I’d skin you and make you a specimen for daring to climb up to my sister’s balcony."

Rong Chengjue waved his hand, and an ice arrow shot straight at Sai Pu’s delicate face.

Sai Pu dodged and, reappearing, attacked Rong Chengjue with clawed fingers.

A vine wrapped around Sai Pu’s hand and pulled it back, while several leaves shattered the ice edges Rong Chengjue had formed.

"Get out and fight!" Qu Tong ordered impatiently.

Sai Pu reluctantly retracted his hand.

"Sister, when I came to find you, I saw him sneaking onto your balcony," Sai Pu complained.

"If you hadn’t been on the balcony, could you two have started fighting?" Qu Tong coldly looked at them both. "Phoebe nanmu carvings, by tomorrow morning when I wake up, restore them to their original state!"

"Ah! Sister, I have no money, could I..."

"Woosh!"

Sai Pu hadn’t even gotten close to Qu Tong when he was already blocked outside the window, which was locked and had the curtains drawn.

Sai Pu touched his almost-hit nose, turned around, and the naïve innocence on his face disappeared in a second, replaced by a devilish, scornful smile, "You? You want to compete with me for my sister."

"The Insect Clan dares to covet humans?" Rong Chengjue’s gaze was cold, also filled with mockery.

Sai Pu’s gaze hardened, and just as he was about to strike remembering Qu Tong’s warning, he withdrew his hand and snorted coldly, looking away.

The Insect Clan’s sharp senses allowed him to detect the scent of his own kind instantly, although he was human, but his gaze at his sister was the same as the Insect Clan viewing their prey.

Neither of them was willing to leave, guarding against each other, they spent the night on the balcony.

Fixing the balcony was out of the question, Rong Chengjue transferred a large sum of money to her, and Sai Pu gave her a piece resembling amber.

"This is Living Jade, a precious stone found only in the bodies of Insect Clan members over two hundred years old, a rare treasure especially beneficial for females... for women. I’m giving it to you, sister," Sai Pu declared proudly.

Qu Tong saw the Living Jade was indeed beautiful, its touch warm and smooth, and she reluctantly accepted it, asking the guard to find a craftsman for repairs.

The two of them also stayed on.

Qu Tong’s peaceful life was over, turned upside down by the two antagonistic individuals.

Specifically, Sai Pu guarded her like a thief preventing Rong Chengjue from getting close, and Rong Chengjue’s temper was no better, as they ended up fighting four or five times a day.

Couldn’t Qu Tong avoid these two lunatics if she couldn’t confront them?

Taking the opportunity while they were fighting, she simply took off in a flying vehicle.
