Chapter 1378: Wei Lingnan's Judgmen

She lived in the clan to heal.

Her body got better every day. A long time passed slowly.

Her energy was almost nothing, but her life was saved, and she would easily let her mind stray when she was idle. The wedding accident that day always haunted her. She guessed that she would have been killed by Wei Lingnan and Gu Jinxiu if her uncle hadn't arrived in time.

This cognition only intensified over time.

The outside world was messed up.

She watched the news and found that many media were reporting on the wedding feast. They all speculated about what caused the sudden explosion. Was it an accident? A terrorist attack? Or revenge from a love rival?

The last guess pushed her to the cusp.

People said that Li Lei's baby daughter had the ability to do such a destructive thing. Although Skyart soon denied the rumor, the probability of this rumor was too high, and it was spread by countless people at one time. There were several versions of it. Resentment, love, and hate. Tan Ying and the others tried their best to deal with it, but it took time to eliminate the impact.

The other two people in the rumor disappeared. Some paparazzi reported that Gu Jinxiu was hiding at home, but Wei Lingnan could not be found.

Day after day, similar news was reported every day.

Xia Yingluo looked at it for a few days and finally got tired of it. She left those reports alone and quietly healed herself.

One day, she was sitting in the mountains and green waters to admire the scenery. The breeze blew through her hair, making her relaxed and happy. She was in a better mood, but suddenly she heard a noise behind her, and was startled when she turned back—she saw that there was an extra man behind her. He looked withered and frail and was wearing a slightly larger white shirt. He was looking silently at her.

His look seemed to contain thousands of words.

Xia Yingluo rushed up in anger. "Wei Lingnan! Why did you appear here without warning! You scared me!"

He knelt down. "Ah Luo... Your Majesty, I was wrong, please forgive me." His voice was hoarse as if he had not rested for many days, and his graceful and dangerous body was thin as paper in the mountain breeze, like it would fall when blown at.

Xia Yingluo was stunned. Thunder flashed in her heart. How did he know her identity?

She instinctively denied it. "I don't know what you're talking about. I'm not Ah Luo, you have already confirmed it."

"I was wrong," Wei Lingnan said. "I made a fatal mistake... Ah Luo, forgive me. I have waited for you for so many years, I have been looking for you for so many years that when I heard Gu Jinxiu utter my real name in the Skatana language in that restaurant I thought she was the queen... Can you understand my feelings at that time? Millions of years, I don't even know how many years... Ah Luo."

Xia Yingluo was silent and thought about it. If it had been her, after being separated from her beloved for hundreds of millions of years, and after bearing countless failures, she would have been ecstatic to hear the familiar and moving voice and would have determined that she had found the right person.

"Then, congratulations." She held back the sadness in her heart and said coldly, "You found your queen Gu Jinxiu."

"She's not." Wei Lingnan looked up at her. "Ah Luo, stop pretending. I know it's you."

"I said it's not me!" Xia Yingluo was annoyed.

Wei Lingnan said, "You are allied with Earth, right?"

She froze again.

When Wei Lingnan looked at her, he knew that he had guessed correctly, and smiled bitterly. "I'm so stupid, I should have discovered it long ago."

"Talk about your speculations." She didn't deny nor admit it.

Wei Lingnan rationalized his thoughts. "All along, because Gu Jinxiu first issued the Skatana language, my preconceived notion was too strong, and I thought she was the queen. Even if I was attracted to you later, I did not doubt her identity. I just thought, how could I betray the queen? I had to suppress the idea of ​​loving you."

"Oh, you can't betray the queen." Xia Yingluo couldn't help sneering. "Then why did you like another woman?"

"You are not another woman. I loved you from beginning to end."

"I'm not!" Xia Yingluo was even more irritated. "You have decided to marry Gu Jinxiu. No matter who is the queen, you have stepped on two boats at the same time!" This was a knot in her heart, and it ached sorely.

Wei Lingnan said, "I never liked Gu Jinxiu, but I didn't dare admit it at the time. It was tantamount to betrayal to the queen. I attributed my attraction to you as a ploy of Earth, or because of the difference in our biological system—Ah Luo, you know that only a few princesses in our hometown are females, and each female is in a competitive relationship. They bring their guardians with them and kill one another. In my hometown, apart from you, there was no opposite sex I could choose to like. But this was different. On Earth, there are billions of women I could marry freely. I thought this biological model led me to fall in love with another woman."

This was the result of his rational analysis and was the most reasonable explanation.

Because of this explanation, these days he had been struggling to suppress his instinct to love her. The pain it brought was indescribable.

Xia Yingluo didn't appreciate it. "Ha, what nice words you put it into."

How could her Guardian be so stupid? Or was he too smart? Too clever after staying in the experimental labs for so many years? No matter how unreasonable, he could still find a reasonable explanation for it. He didn't even know if he was pitted against her or himself.

"Go on, why did you think I am the queen."

"I always thought that it was an accident for you to conceive the World Tree. Because the conception mechanism of human women is different from that of the queen. Your condition after pregnancy was also different from that of previous queens, so I believed that you were just an ordinary human. That was until I hugged you back to the laboratory. At the critical moment of your life, the earthquake appeared in time, the crack separated you from Gu Jinxiu, and the newly rising land below the ground did not just hold you up, it also let Xia Moyan in to save you. So many coincidences were too difficult to explain.

"The location of my underground base is very particular. Logically, there won't be an earthquake for at least thousands of years. I also investigated the origin and movement trajectory of this earthquake. All the data were abrupt and weird as if the earthquake was made for you."

Xia Yingluo understood. "That's why you asked me if I have an alliance with Earth?"

"Yes," Wei Lingnan said. "After excluding all possibilities, there is only this one possibility. And the only one who can ally with the Earth is the Queen. According to the universal rules, the planet that requests for rescue in a critical situation can't be an ordinary ally. It can only be the person who made the covenant. Whoever Earth rescues, that person is the queen."
