Chapter 286: Chaotic Battle

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

At the break of dawn, Earl Sam’s army stood prepared, soldiers primed for battle.

Zhou Ling had already made contact with Zhou Ye, and the rebel army was in the midst of preparing their assault on Planet Dynasty. Once the chaos of the battle erupted, it would provide an opportune moment for their escape from the planet.

Zhou Ling’s objective was clear—to rescue Lili and rendezvous with Zhou Ye on the green planet, enabling the entire family to depart from the empire as swiftly as possible.

It was inevitable that the rebel army would eventually seize control of the empire. The imperial forces would be fractured, and Count Sam’s army lacked substantial combat experience. Only the rebel army, popular among the people and armed with the military distribution map provided by Zhou Ling, possessed the strength necessary for victory.

Donning military attire, Zhou Ling stood before the towering edifice, with Liao Ning by his side.

“Warriors, today is the day we reclaim the throne for Count Sam, and you will become the founders of our new nation! Now, let us march!” Zhou Ling’s voice resonated with determination.

At his command, soldiers boarded spacecraft and airships, laden with an assortment of ammunition. Every individual from the military base was mobilized.

Zhou Ling and Liao Ning also entered a medium-sized invisible airship—an essential tool for their escape.

“Mother, what should we do?” Sami’s anxiety consumed her. She knew that Liao Ning and the others were involved in something significant, but she felt powerless to intervene.

“And now you ask me? Why didn’t you stop him yesterday? You useless fool!” Liao Xi glared at Sami before stepping onto the spacecraft.

Determined to save Count Sam, Liao Xi insisted on being present. After a night of internal struggle, she had finally made up her mind. If she couldn’t seize control of the army, she would at least return to Planet Empire and secure the Sam Family’s assets. That was what she needed to survive. Additionally, she had obtained the antidote to cure her illness.

Her gaze fixated on the spot where Liao Ning’s airship had vanished. Amidst the ensuing chaos, she needed to obtain Liao Ning’s blood in order to negotiate with Liao Chen.

The airship carried only the two of them, shrouded in a heavy silence.

Liao Ning, having never experienced real warfare, couldn’t help but worry about the potential implications for innocent civilians.

Sensing her concerns, Zhou Ling reassured her, “Don’t worry, Li Xian will be a just and compassionate leader. He will treat the people well.”

Liao Ning nodded silently. She had been in contact with Li Xian for a considerable period and recognized his qualities as a leader, especially his commitment to equality among all individuals.

Lost in her thoughts, Liao Ning suddenly realized that the army had arrived at the gates of Planet Dynasty. Under Zhou Ling’s command, everyone stealthily took cover.

Zhou Ling disembarked from the airship, confirming his identity before the guards swiftly opened the doors.

In an instant, as Zhou Ling returned to the airship, a multitude of aircraft surged through the gates, catching the guards off guard.

Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the city gate, the guards received a distress signal and prepared to confront the incoming forces when suddenly, the gates were forcefully breached.

The rebel army entered confidently, while the mermaid army stormed through the gates of the royal castle without causing harm to any civilians.

Everything unfolded with astonishing speed. Before the royal family could react, chaos erupted within the prison located beneath the castle.

In the midst of this turmoil, the Elder Prince found himself bound to a bed, his gaze fixed upon the jubilant Lili flapping her wings. “Darling, why are you playing this game with me? It’s not fun at all. Release me!”

Under his coaxing and coercion, Lili reluctantly agreed to his proposition.

However, just as the Elder Prince was about to indulge in his desires, his expression soured upon hearing the commotion outside.

Wearing a sycophantic expression, he pleaded, “Lili, I must step outside and assess the situation. Untie me, and we can continue our activities upon my return.”

Lili retracted her wings, casting him a disdainful gaze. “What more do you want? You’re repulsive, and your dreams are futile!”

“You needn’t trouble yourself going outside. I’ll inform you of the situation.” Lili glanced down at him. “Don’t you know about the Butterfly’s abilities? I controlled the feral beasts you imprisoned, and they’ve wreaked havoc on your castle once more!”

Before the Elder Prince could utter a word, one wall of his chamber was forcefully demolished, and the head of a black dragon emerged.

Lili flew to the dragon’s neck and settled herself, gently patting its scaled surface.. “This time, I shall ride the flying dragon! My darling, let us depart now! “
