The claim that Dr. Witte discovered a method for lower-level male insects to appease higher-level female insects is obviously a lie told to Rhine by the First Prince; there's no such thing at all.

The reason for saying this is simply because the eldest prince wants to find a reason to bring the powerful ruler of the Rhine back to the capital planet.

When the Crown Prince reported Rhine's proposal to the Queen, the Queen suggested bringing Rhine's male ruler back to the capital planet so that there would be a means to control Rhine.

After Rhine gained the right to independently recruit high-level female insects, the powerful ministers of the capital star also secretly expressed their opinion that Rhine should not be allowed to go to his post abroad without any worries.

Therefore, bringing Rhine's leader Lu Yuan back to the capital planet is a matter of unanimous agreement across the entire capital planet.

Of course, the eldest prince also knew that his reason was a bit far-fetched. How could there possibly be a way for a low-level male insect to appease a high-level female insect? It was simply too absurd.

However, although this reason is absurd, it has one advantage: it makes it impossible for insects to refuse.

After all, this matter is related to Rhine's spiritual sea, or to put it more bluntly, it is closely related to Rhine's life. Neither Rhine himself nor his lord could find a plausible reason to refuse.

As long as Rhine cannot question the veracity of the reason given by the Crown Prince, then Rhine will have no choice but to obediently send his powerful ruler to the capital planet.

As for whether Rhine would raise any questions, the Crown Prince thought, Rhine wouldn't.

Rhine was a clever fellow; he knew what he could and couldn't do.

Sure enough, after a pause, Rhine showed a joyful smile.

"Your Highness, this is wonderful! I am so happy. Thank you to the Insect King and Queen and Your Highness for your concern and for giving me such a great opportunity."

The eldest prince smiled with satisfaction.

……

Where the Crown Prince couldn't see, Rhine clenched his fists, feeling his hands and feet grow cold.

Because of Lu Yuan's textbook, Rhine couldn't immediately determine whether what the Crown Prince said about Dr. Witt finding a solution was true or false.

Regardless of whether it's true or not, Rhine knew in her heart that the Crown Prince's actions certainly didn't have only one purpose.

It seems that his request to recruit soldiers independently has made the Crown Prince and his men wary of him. Calling Lu Yuan back to the capital planet is clearly an attempt to use Lu Yuan to threaten him.

Rhine would never let Lu Yuan return to the capital planet. He had finally managed to get Lu Yuan away from there, and now he was free to do as he pleased. How could he let Lu Yuan go back and put those heavy shackles on them again?

But the reason the eldest prince gave was really hard to refute.

Rhine's mind raced, but he still couldn't find a suitable reason to refuse. He could only stall for time and figure out another way later.

"However, Your Highness, I have another request regarding my lord's return to the capital planet, and I hope Your Highness can grant it," Rhine said.

Upon hearing that Rhine had included the word "but," the Crown Prince's smile faded.

"Oh, what request do you have? Tell me about it."

"The capital planet is so far away from the Arach defense line. Now that the lord has returned to the capital planet, I don't know when we will be able to see each other again. So I would like to ask Your Highness to allow me to personally escort my lord back to the capital planet."

It will take at least two months to travel from the Alach defense line to the capital star.

Rhine would only personally escort them when the fighting was less intense; otherwise, how could a legion commander like him have been away for so long?

It's definitely impossible to travel there in the near future, as Rhine just described to the Crown Prince how critical the situation is at the Arach defense line.

As for when Lu Yuan will be able to return, Rhine will naturally consider and decide based on the situation at the front.

The eldest prince stared at Rhine for a while, then spoke.

"Alright, I grant your request, but you can't delay too long. Dr. Witt is in a hurry, and you also need to consider your own mental state, don't you?"

The eldest prince knew, of course, that Rhine was stalling for time.

However, since Rhine had already agreed to let the lord return to the capital planet, the eldest prince did not want to push too far.

Let him drag it out for a while; he'll remind Rhine when the time comes anyway.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

As soon as the call ended, Rhine's professional smile vanished.

He paced back and forth in his study, pondering how to persuade Lu Yuan to stay.

The Crown Prince's answer just now has made Rhine realize that Dr. Witt's reason is false; otherwise, the Crown Prince would not have agreed to let him delay like this.

Even though he knew it was fake, he couldn't question the eldest prince directly, so he could only go along with what the eldest prince said.

The reason the eldest prince came up with was so good that he couldn't find a reason to refuse.

Unless... unless...

Rhine's mind raced, and then his eyes lit up.

Unless the Arach defense line happens to have a way to have low-level male insects appease high-level female insects, then the Crown Prince's reason for sending Lu Yuan back to the capital planet is invalid.

As for whether the eldest prince will come up with other reasons later, let's not worry about that for now and get through this hurdle first.

It just so happens that Lu Yuan actually has a textbook on how to get lower-level male insects to soothe higher-level female insects. It seems that we need to find a way to spread this textbook.

To successfully disseminate teaching materials, a successful case study is needed.

Rhine would definitely not let Lu Yuan be the case study; he still planned to keep Lu Yuan behind the scenes.

Then you need to choose another low-level male insect to learn that teaching material. It would be best to choose a low-level male insect that has already married a high-level female insect, so that he will be more motivated to learn.

Which male insect should be chosen to do this?

Rhine's mind continued to work, and then he thought of Dorian, and then of Dorian's C-rank overlord.

Rhine slowly revealed a smile.

Dorian wanted him to help take care of that male insect named Fies, but Rhine was a good insect, how could he bear to see two loving insects separated by life and death like this?

He decided to give the teaching materials to Fies, so that after Fies learned them, he would be able to use his mental powers to soothe Dorian.

In this way, Dorian wouldn't have to die and could take care of his own lord.

It's best to take care of your own male insect; how can you let other females take care of it?

It was truly a great fortune for Dorian to know him; not only did he save his life, but he also gave the great Lord Dorian the opportunity to make a name for himself in the empire.

Hopefully, Dorian won't be too grateful to him.

Having figured out a solution, Rhein felt relieved. All he had to do now was get Lu Yuan to bring out the teaching materials.
