She transmigrated into the body of a top-tier female in the beast world, and the entire intergalacti

Chapter 133 It was actually a pearl

"Your mother also thought you were a good child, but you actually conspired with your father to harm your brother. Yu'er, you are a direct descendant of the royal family, while your brother is only a collateral descendant. He poses no threat to you."

As a mother, the Queen naturally felt more sorry for Lan Cang. They were both her sons from the same birth, one of whom was of royal blood, possessing a talent and status that were admired by all, while the other was from a collateral branch of the family. In comparison, she felt that Lan Cang was more pitiful.

Naturally, one should be more protective of this son.

"Madam, this is not Yu'er's fault..."

Emperor Hanhai naturally felt sorry for his son, but before he could finish speaking, the Queen interrupted him: "Of course it's not Yu'er's fault, it's all your fault as her father who instigated it."

"..."

Lan Yu stood to the side, feeling a mix of emotions he couldn't quite describe. He lowered his clear, snow-white eyes, a hint of sorrow and bitterness in them.

“Mother, my brother has been condoning the black market for slave trading, and the Tianhai City Beast Arena, which he controls, is in complete chaos. Many contestants are forced to participate. A few days ago, I went to the virtual arena and also to my brother’s mansion in Tianhai City. I asked the steward there, and he can confirm that what Mr. Theo said is true.”

Lan Yu calmly stated, "That contestant named [Duoyuan] had previously appeared at the City Lord's Mansion in Tianhai City, but according to the steward there, his elder brother secretly moved him somewhere recently."

Upon hearing this, Theo looked sharply at Lan Cang, but the other party did not back down and glared back fiercely at Theo and Lan Yu beside him.

Especially towards Lan Yu, his eyes seemed to want to devour her alive.

But hiding behind the Queen, he spoke with an unusually aggrieved tone: "Mother, look, you still say that my brother isn't targeting me? He went to Tianhai City specifically to find something on me. That steward is a new opportunist; it's possible that he's being pressured by him and making things up."

I didn't—

Lan Yu felt helpless upon hearing the other party's rebuttal, but his bloodline and character prevented him from doing something as shameless as Lan Cang.

"enough!"

The Queen interrupted again: "Without any actual evidence, you suspect your brother based solely on the words of outsiders. Yu'er, this is immoral."

This answer completely shattered the last vestige of hope for warmth in Lan Yu's heart.

"..."

The young man in white lowered his head silently, his clear blue eyes seemingly glistening with tears.

A pure white pearl slowly slid down, radiating a beautiful violet luster. But the moment it hit the ground, he turned and walked out of the hall, his lonely figure looking heartbreaking.

Emperor Hanhai let out a long sigh.

Because he had experienced the same things that happened to his son. Over the years, Lan Cang's father, the shark male named "Xiao Ke," had also targeted him in the same way. However, due to his dominant position in the tribe, he dared not openly confront him and only dared to complain to his wife behind his back.

"Humph."

Seeing his younger brother leave in anger, Lan Cang curled his lips in satisfaction and looked at the Emperor of the Vast Ocean with even greater provocation, as if he knew that the other party could not do anything to him.

"Cang'er, come back with your mother. Don't worry, as long as your mother is here, no one can harm you."

The Queen took Lan Cang's hand and prepared to leave.

The Emperor of the Vast Ocean stood helplessly in place, making no attempt to stop it, for he could neither do anything to harm his beloved female nor say anything to hurt her.

Their relationship as members of the mermaid royal family.

Utterly genuine and pure.

But this did not change the fact that his wife was distant from him.

But just as the two were about to step out of the imperial court, a powerful gust of wind suddenly bound Lan Cang.

This rendered him completely unable to move.

"Mr. Theo, please have mercy!"

Emperor Han Hai was shocked and hurriedly tried to stop him, because right beside him, the young man slightly raised his hand, and that powerful wind was released by him!
"Cang'er?!"

As a weak female, the Queen's physical strength was only around level 3, so she couldn't resist at all. She could only watch helplessly as her son disappeared before her eyes and returned to his original position in the blink of an eye!

"Click." Lan Cang's body moved uncontrollably in front of Theo, and the next second the other's hand clamped down on his throat, tightening the grip so that he could not struggle.

"Did I let you leave?" Theo's voice was cold. "Or do you naively believe that you can gain protection simply by relying on your mother?"

"..."

Lan Cang frowned, wanting to speak, but the other person's hand was gripping him too tightly, and he couldn't utter a sound, or even breathe properly.

"Mr. Theo—"

Beside him, Emperor Hanhai raised his hand, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

“I’m sorry, Your Majesty, this is your family matter and I shouldn’t interfere. But I can’t ignore the disappearance of General Phil. I understand that you feel sorry for your wife, but I don’t feel sorry for a strange female.”

"you--"

Upon hearing this, the Queen's face darkened, for the "strange female" Theo was referring to was her.

These words were so blunt and jarring.

"So what if you're from a virtual star country? Without concrete evidence, what right do you have to arrest my son?"

Theo released his grip, but due to the restraint and suppression he had just endured, Lan Cang, now free, was like a deflated balloon, slumped on the ground, gasping for air as if he were about to die.

“Madam, you misunderstand. I did not arrest Mr. Lancang. I only wanted to ask him for assistance in finding him. As the person in charge of the Tianhaicheng Beast Trapped Martial Arts Arena, this is my duty. Even if you report this to the Federal Center, the result will be the same.” Theo walked towards Lancang and said condescendingly, “Of course, if one day it is proven that Mr. Lancang did indeed detain General Phil and fabricated a lie, then only then will someone arrest Mr. Lancang.”

Deliberately detaining wounded soldiers of the legion, especially top-ranking officers of the rank of general, and fabricating lies to obstruct the investigation, is a serious crime.

If the case goes to a federal military court, even if the other party is a member of the royal family, they will be sentenced to life imprisonment. Someone from a collateral branch like Lan Cang will probably have to serve a hundred years of hard labor.

"..."

The queen was filled with resentment, but could only watch helplessly. She looked at her husband and said, "Aren't you going to do anything about it?!"

Even if the opponent has 9th-tier strength, it is not impossible to fight against them if the entire empire is mobilized.

“Madam, Mr. Theo’s actions are in accordance with federal regulations, and I have no right to interfere.”

The Emperor of Hanhai looked troubled, because he could not and did not want to get involved in this matter, neither for public nor private reasons.

He was just worried...

Will the male, whose name was changed to "Xiao Ke" by the wife, seize on this incident and continue to make a big fuss about it?

...

……

The virtual world, Tianhai City.

Numerous starships shuttle between the stars.

Like shooting stars converging towards the edge of the city, the Beast Trapping Arena inside the city remained open, packed with people.

A young girl appeared at the head of Xinghai Harbor. She looked at the distant coastline and could vaguely see the "city of sin" that had once caused her despair and sorrow.

Jiang Nuo stood by the starry sea in the virtual world, a refreshing and gentle sea breeze caressing her cheeks.

Her long hair cascaded over her shoulders, her skirt fluttering slightly as she strolled gently along the Star Coast, somewhat out of place amidst the bustling scene of the harbor. At this moment, the girl seemed lost in some kind of memory.

"Clap."

Without realizing it, Jiang Nuo felt as if something had fallen on her head. She instinctively reached out and picked it up to take a look.

It turned out to be a perfectly round, solid-colored pearl.

She held it between her fingertips and placed it in the sunlight; the bead shone with a beautiful violet luster.
