The hairs on the back of his neck raised, his y flooded froht erupted from him and immediately Lan Jue’s skin became crystalline and translucent
He utilized the connection between Qianlin and himself to call her to his side and took her hand
“You’re so nervous!” The beguiling voice wafted through the air She turned to face hirowled
She looked at hi smile It came much smoother now, more natural than before – like an actual human But only ‘like’ a human She was still too beautiful, too manufactured to be real
It was inconceivable to hiest aliens would simply appear in this place From what he could tell, she was here for him
The Violet Princess took a step forward
Violent bursts of electric energy flared around Lan Jue Qianlin’s body was surrounded by a pale white light He didn’t dare give the Princess any leeway – she had been a on! Only his father would be able to contend with her
“You don’t need to be nervous I only camatic smile
“What do you have to say?” Lan Jue’s voice was low and guarded
She stopped for a“Your hu So ood specier to learn about huenetic construction We wish to accept this peculiarity I can feel the promise in you”
Lan Jue was dumb-founded She was here to proposition hi a human? Hoould one even describe the concept?!
The Princess then seemed to notice the woman beside him “This one is your mate?”
He narrowed his eyes “I love her”
She cantered her head to the side “This is the sa enetic material She can join with us as well”
“Why would ant to join with you?” He remained calm, poised
“Evolution!” She said “My species has an unparalleled ability to evolve We consuest race in the universe!”
Lan Jue smirked at her “If that’s true, why do you choose to take on human form?”
Her response was es and disadvantages You hureat potential, but very limited lifespans After a short tiy to consume ill continue to exist From the birth of our ine the poe possess Join with us, and you will gain the ability to consuy as well”
“I need tiht I will find you again” With that, the Princess vanished in a flash of purple light
Lan Jue stood in the center of the roo time When he was sure the Princess had truly left, he breathed a sigh of relief He pulled Qianlin into his arh the look in his eyes was contemplative Humanity needed to understand these aliens
For the Princess to appear here like she did, it ht They were here for the Tears of Neptune Their brief exchange had also been very inforenitors seemed to be the natal forest, but they were the beginning That made them vitally important to their species
The fact that they assumed human fore they were trying to overcome It somehow curtailed their continuous evolution, probably restricted by universal protogenia If that were not the case he couldn’t think of why they would want to be like humans They would sily that was impossible for them as they were
As for her offer…
Beautiful as she was, the Violet Princess was not human To Lan Jue these aliens ild and vicious beasts
Mate? Hah!
