Time quickly came to the day of the banquet, and Gu Heng changed into a formal suit.

He didn't choose the flamboyant style that most male insects currently prefer; instead, he chose a more minimalist style that female insects would typically opt for.

The moment Heemis came out after changing her clothes, she was immediately captivated by the male insect standing in front of the full-length mirror.

He had always known that the male lord was exceptionally handsome, and now that he was dressed up, he was even more captivating to the insects.

The male insect wore a simple white shirt, which looked meticulously ironed without a single wrinkle. His long, straight legs were encased in suit trousers, with a single metal belt in the middle outlining his lean waist.

Black hair and black eyes are like unique characteristics of male insects, like an endless night, making insects unable to resist lifting the veil of mystery.

The mirror clearly reflected the female insect's image. Gu Heng turned around and looked at the female insect, praising her without reservation, "This dress suits you very well."

Heemis's heart skipped a beat as she met the male insect's sincere gaze. "Thank you for the compliment, Master."

He returned the favor, saying, "Your outfit is also very nice."

Gu Heng didn't stand on ceremony; he simply revealed his true feelings.

Gu Heng had the female insect choose this dress herself, and when he saw it, he felt that the dress fit the female insect very closely.

A very formal suit, a versatile and foolproof black.

Hermes' head-to-body ratio is near perfect. Her well-tailored suit fits her female insect body perfectly, and her shirt is buttoned up to the top, adding a touch of cold sensuality.

His shoulders were sharp and clean, the perfect example of broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and a low-key yet luxurious silver brooch was set on his left chest.

His facial features were impeccably outstanding, with a handsome, almost demonic face beneath his silver-white hair, and deep, bright golden eyes that could hold an insect captive when it looked at him.

Gu Heng and Hermes went out one after the other.

The female insect, Huska, who had been waiting for a long time, straightened her back immediately when the male insect looked over. "Your Majesty, I am sent by His Majesty the Insect Emperor to take you there."

"OK, thanks."

Gu Heng nodded politely, while Hugheska was flattered and carried the male insect onto the aircraft, thoughtfully preparing fruit and snacks beside him.

Hemirus, who was last to catch up, stopped at the entrance of the aircraft. Watching the female insect bustling around for the male, he felt superfluous and stopped in his tracks.

Gu Heng's gaze swept past Hugheska's back, and he accurately caught sight of the female insect's black clothing. He shifted his body slightly to the side, meeting the female insect's somewhat bewildered eyes.

Gu Heng spoke, his voice gentle, "Sit next to me, Hermes."

Gu Heng moved over to the inside, gesturing for the female insect to sit in his spot.

Seeing the male insect's actions, Hugheska subconsciously took a step back to the side.

Hugheska turned to the side and noticed the female insect, whom he hadn't noticed until now because his eyes were filled with the male insect's crown.

But according to what he found out, wasn't this female insect just a female slave that was forcibly matched with when the male insect lacked mental power?

Why would a male insect care so much about him?

In his view, the male insect should see him as a disgrace!

Hugheska couldn't understand it.

Heemis, with her long, slender legs, sat down next to the male ruler, in the window seat.

Hugheska's smile remained unchanged. "Your Majesty, please feel free to call me if you need anything."

He made a point of emphasizing his name, saying, "My name is Hugheska."

Gu Heng hummed in agreement, indicating that he understood. "Okay."

The advanced level of the Empire's aircraft technology is evident.

Gu Heng saw the scenery outside the window changing rapidly, rushing away into the distance at an extremely fast speed.

After a short while, the aircraft came to a stop.

Gu Heng arrived at the banquet venue under the guidance of Hugheska.

From the outside, it looks like a magnificent palace. Inside, a huge, ornate, and dazzling chandelier hangs from the towering dome, illuminating the entire banquet hall with unparalleled luxury and brilliance.

Gu Heng handed the invitation to the female insect at the door.

The female insect accepted the invitation and went through the formalities. When she saw Lord Hugheska behind the male insect on the other side, she vaguely guessed who the male insect was.

The female insect saluted, extending her right arm in a gesture of respect, "Your Majesty, please come in."

He was incredibly excited, thankfully he hadn't agreed to his colleague's request to switch shifts.

Heaven knows, His Majesty is so handsome.

The female insect thought, "If only he could become the male insect's female servant."

Oh no.

Even if I can't be a female servant, being Your Majesty's female slave wouldn't be bad either.

Gu Heng nodded and followed behind the female insect.

Halfway there, when he looked back at Heamis, he found that the female insect was being blocked and seemed to be being harassed.

Gu Heng frowned and called out, "Wait, my female slave hasn't followed."

When the female insect walking in front turned around and saw the male insect's back as it turned away, her heart skipped a beat.

Female slaves are not allowed to be brought into this banquet.

Hugheska also chased after them, frowning deeply as he looked at the servant insect blocking the way not far away.

He cursed under his breath.

They really don't know how to be flexible.

This is an S-class deity!

Even the insect emperor has to give some face to the male insects!

Just let the female slaves in, what could possibly happen?

Throughout the journey, Hugheska noticed that the male insect's attitude towards this female slave was excessively kind.

As Gu Heng drew closer, the conversation in the distance became increasingly clear.

A female insect crossed her arms over her chest, her gaze disdainful.

"You're nothing but a lowly female slave, yet you dare to dream of attending this banquet."

"I advise you to always remember your place and not covet what doesn't belong to you. Didn't the male insect just leave without even remembering you?"

"Honestly, I've seen plenty of female slaves like you. Don't daydream about picking up your consorts at this banquet."

Heemis remained silent, her head slightly lowered, which, in Gu Heng's eyes, made her look like she had been bullied terribly.

Gu Heng felt a fire burning inside him, so angry that he was about to lose his mind.

He approached and snapped, "That's enough."

The female insect, who had been berating Heamis incessantly, now looked terrified upon seeing the male insect. "Your...Your Majesty?"

"Heamis is my slave, that's true, but please don't humiliate him. Aren't we all the same?"

The female insect was too frightened to speak, only nodding repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes..."

"Since we're not welcome here," Gu Heng said, grabbing Hermes's hand, "let's go!"

Hugheska arrived just in time to stop the male insect from leaving, and glared angrily at the female insect, who had now turned into a quail.

When the female insect met the gaze of a pair of eyes that were about to devour it, her body trembled even more violently.

Hugheska hurriedly tried to persuade him to stay, saying, "Your Majesty, this servant has spoken rudely. We will dismiss him from his post as soon as possible."

Gu Heng gave him a cold look. "Is that all?"

Seeing the male insect's relaxed brows and eyes, Hugheska quickly said, "What else do you need? We will fulfill your request."

Gu Heng's gaze swept over Heemis's indifferent eyes and back to the servant insect.

He spoke each word clearly.

"Apologize."

Hugheska thought the male insect would make some impossible request, but it turned out to be just a trivial apology.

He immediately regained his breath and replied repeatedly, "Okay, no problem."

Hugheska frowned, looking at the female insect still standing there in a daze, and said with exasperation, "Come here right now! Apologize to the male insect."

Gu Heng corrected, "Apologize to my female slave."

Hugheska nodded eagerly, "Yes, yes, yes."

The servant insect tiptoed up to Heemis. "I...apologize for my inappropriate behavior just now."

After he finished speaking, he bowed deeply.

Heemis was deeply moved when she saw the male insect's expression, which showed he was even angrier than she was.
