They had just come to a profound understanding of the terror of the Space Principal from He Xi's experience.
Once Lin Ci leaves this world, the person left behind...
It will definitely become the target of the Space Principal's research.
The air seemed to freeze at this moment.
The charming smile on Liang Bing's face vanished, replaced by a solemn expression.
Even on Keisha's noble face, a hint of struggle was revealed.
As for Qilin, her heart sank little by little.
Compared to the three angel queens who had lived for tens of thousands of years, she was just a weak human.
From any perspective, she is the most likely to be the one who gets abandoned.
Inside the council chamber, the air was as still as lead.
The phrase "only two spots left" hung like an invisible blade over everyone's mind.
Keisha, Liang Bing, and Qi Lin, three people.
A question that cannot be avoided or chosen.
Everyone knows what being left behind means.
The Principal of Space possesses a power almost equivalent to the very rules of the universe.
The wounds left on He Xi are still vivid in my mind.
Once Lin Ci leaves, the forgotten one will be left alone to face the universe's most powerful predator.
That is not death, but something more thorough than death, a conceptual erasure.
Qi Lin's fingertips turned slightly white, and her breathing became somewhat rapid.
She looked at Keisha and Liang Bing beside her.
These two angel queens, who have lived for tens of thousands of years, are exceptionally beautiful and wield immense power throughout the universe.
A tiny human being, with a lifespan of no more than a hundred years, possesses negligible power.
The answer seems to be self-evident.
A chilling despair began to spread from the depths of my heart.
Just as this despair was about to engulf her, she saw Lin Ci's eyes.
Those eyes remained calm, yet they seemed to hold a deep, starry sky, giving her a strange sense of peace.
Qi Lin took a deep breath, as if she had made a decision, and the panic in her eyes was replaced by a resolute look.
Almost at the same moment, Keisha and Liang Bing also raised their heads.
The three people's eyes met in mid-air.
Yet it was as if they understood each other's every thought.
Three voices, one after the other, rang out in unison in the deathly silent council chamber.
"I'm willing to give up."
"I'm willing to give up."
"I'm willing to give up."
Chapter 161 If you make a mistake, just correct it.
Lin Ci's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.
Looking at the scene before her, He Xi's beautiful blue eyes revealed a complex emotion.
"I'll go first."
Qi Lin spoke first; her voice wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear.
"In your presence, I am just an ordinary human being."
"My life is but a drop in the ocean compared to your tens of thousands of years, and it will pass in the blink of an eye."
She looked at Lin Ci, her eyes filled with pure love and longing.
"I'm already very content to have been with him for so long."
"Queen Keisha, Queen Liangbing, you are the pillars of the Angelic Civilization and Lin Ci's most important support."
"Your existence is ten thousand times more important than mine."
"Therefore, I cannot accept this spot."
Her words were reasonable and irrefutable.
"That's nice to say."
Liang Bing scoffed, stood up, and crossed her arms.
Her stunning figure outlines breathtaking curves.
"Little sister, do you think this is a dinner invitation where you have to be polite and courteous?"
She glanced sideways at Qilin.
"If you stay, you're doomed. That old pervert in space will crush you more easily than crushing an ant."
“If you die, Lin Ci will be heartbroken, and if he is heartbroken, I will be unhappy too.”
Liang Bing walked up to Qi Lin and gently tapped her forehead with her finger.
"So you have to go with him."
Qi Lin was stunned; she hadn't expected this seemingly cynical man to be like this.
Some wicked queens might even say such things.
"then you……"
Liang Bing raised her chin, her face displaying her usual arrogance and unruliness.
"I stayed."
"what?!"
Keisha and Hexi exclaimed in surprise at the same time.
"Don't make such a fuss."
Liang Bing waved her hand impatiently.
"You guys are all brain-teasing types. One is the Heavenly Blade King, the other is the Heavenly Foundation King. You're always calculating and analyzing. Aren't you tired of it?"
"That old guy in space, isn't he just a tech geek?"
"What I'm best at dealing with are these sneaky bastards who hide behind the scenes and do dirty tricks."
A dangerous yet excited glint flashed in her eyes.
"You go with him, I'll stay."
"I want to see whether I'll drag him out and tear him to pieces, or he'll wipe me off the map first."
"This game is really exciting."
She licked her lips, like a mother leopard eyeing her prey.
"Husband, what do you think?"
"When you come back, I might even offer you that old guy's skull from space as an ashtray."
These words were filled with a cool, madness and confidence.
Keisha stood up and interrupted Liang Bing in such a stern tone for the first time.
"What a nonsense!"
She walked up to Liang Bing, her golden eyes filled with worry and disapproval.
"You have no idea how terrifying Principal Space is. He Xi is a prime example!"
"I know."
Liang Bing's smile faded slightly.
"It is precisely because I know this that I should stay."
"If you stay, you will surely die."
"But I might not be so sure."
Her confidence was not unfounded.
As a former scholar at the Super God Academy, her understanding of void theory far surpasses that of Keisha.
"Okay, don't argue anymore."
Keisha took a deep breath, her gaze sweeping over her younger sister, then over Qilin, and finally landing on Lin Ci.
Her face carried a regal air of composure and decisiveness.
"I stayed."
These three words carried even more weight than when Qi Lin and Liang Bing had spoken them.
Keisha raised her hand to stop her.
"Liang Bing, let me finish."
She walked up to Lin Ci and bowed slightly.
"My God, I ruled the Angelic Civilization for 30,000 years and witnessed the rise and fall of countless civilizations."
"My life has been long enough and glorious enough."
"He Xi is the cornerstone of scientific research. She must follow you to explore the ultimate mysteries of the universe."
“Liang Bing… Although she is unruly, her thoughts and potential far surpass mine.”
