Transmigrated into a useless female in interstellar space, she won big by picking up an SSS-level be

Jiang Zhixia walked out of the isolation ward and stood at the door for a while in a daze.

There is now a discrepancy between the mutated insect mother and one's own understanding.

The white flower sent its consciousness to the modern world to protect itself, so it is not a modern person.

The system is not something that the mutated insect mother can manipulate at will.

It might be true for others, but now it's happening to me, the chosen one.

So now the other party has walked right into the trap. They can't be killed, but they can't be let go either. This slight misconception is just enough to lure this guy into staying in the Empire.

After sorting out her thoughts, she went outside.

Only Jiang Ting and Lu Jue remained outside the door.

"What did you say?" Jiang Ting asked.

Jiang Zhixia glanced back at the closed hatch: "Can't you hear me?"

Lu Jue pointed at the transparent barrier with a strange expression: "After you went in, the sounds inside disappeared. We could only see you talking, but we couldn't hear anything else."

Jiang Zhixia is exhausted.

It seems that the insect queen's claim of "immortality" wasn't just boasting; she might really be unable to be contained.

Being able to block out sound, ignore electric shocks, and regrow severed hands is beyond the capabilities of normal living beings.

"Jiang Ting, let's not kill her yet, let's go back to the base and talk about it."

Jiang Ting glanced at her.

He and Jiang Zhixia have always shared the same thoughts on how to deal with the insect mother.

No matter what secrets the other party has, kill them first. Even if those secrets cannot be solved, we cannot allow future disasters to befall us.

Now they say they won't kill them.

Is it really impossible to kill?

He also scoffed at this absurd idea.

However, he still agreed without asking why.

"Alright, return to the base and report to the Queen and His Majesty, and let them make the decision."

Jiang Zhixia nodded.

Her mind was a complete mess. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly realized that someone was missing.

"Where is Su Chen?"

Lu Jue pointed to the door: "He stared at the personal terminal for a long time, his face looked really bad, then he said he had something to do and turned around and left."

Jiang Zhixia froze, realizing what was happening.

Damn it, Su Chen definitely knows that Mu Huaye is on the warship.

……

The Imperial fleet sped through the star system and was about to reach the base in less than a day.

Mu Huaye was indeed taken away by Su Chen and imprisoned.

Jiang Zhixia knew that Su Chen was angry with Mu Huaye and was afraid that the snake would be killed, so she tentatively asked Su Chen to give him back.

"Um...where's Mu Huaye?"

"The female protagonist?"

In the laboratory, the man was wearing a lab coat with the sleeves rolled up to his forearms, revealing his fair wrists.

When he saw her arrive, he slightly curved the corners of his lips, his smile as gentle as ever.

"Why aren't you resting yet? Are you here to see Mu Huaye?" Su Chen's tone was nonchalant. "He's already been taken to the back lab. He just happened to bump into me, so I can study the subsequent fusion of the artificial scales."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over Jiang Zhixia's face without making a sound.

There was a hint of worry in the female's eyes that she couldn't hide; though it was very faint, he noticed it immediately.

Su Chen suddenly felt like an immature husband who, out of jealousy, took away the female master's beloved male and tormented him, only to be confronted by the female master demanding his return.

He looked away, lowered his gaze to the data panel in his hand, and unconsciously denied it in his heart.

How could Mu Huaye possibly have such ability to make the female master like him?

The female master is simply kind-hearted.

Thinking of this, he added, "My lady, I developed the artificial scales myself. Currently, there are still some unstable factors, so I must keep a close eye on them personally."

Looking at his gentle and refined face, Jiang Zhixia silently lit a candle for the snake in her heart.

Su Chen usually appears gentle and mild-mannered, but he can be quite obsessive about certain things.

She was genuinely afraid that Su Chen might accidentally poison Mu Huaye in a fit of anger.

But then I thought, Mu Huaye is at least an SS-level... he should be fine, right?

She touched her nose guiltily and gave a dry laugh: "Then, then you can do your research, I won't bother you."

Seeing her guilty look, Su Chen couldn't help but think of the affection that Mu Huaye had stolen, and that night when the female master unconsciously formed a contract with that snake.

He sighed, then suddenly stepped forward and gently placed a kiss on the corner of her lips.

The gestures were intimate and natural, carrying a hint of barely perceptible grievance.

"The female master has entered into a contract with him, is she obligated to take responsibility?"

Jiang Zhixia was startled and almost jumped up.

Responsible?!

A scene instantly flashed through her mind—Mu Huaye crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide, clutching the contract mark on his chest, demanding a formal title from her!

Her lips twitched violently, and she blurted out, "Mu Huaye himself probably wouldn't want to, would he?"

Su Chen was stunned for a moment.

Then he laughed.

The smile held a hint of relief and a touch of joy.

The female master was completely unaware of Mu Huaye's thoughts.

"In that case, the female master doesn't need to worry. I won't get jealous for no reason."

He reached out and gently brushed a stray hair behind her ear, his voice soft: "I will take good care of him."

Jiang Zhixia: "...Okay."

She had no choice but to agree.

The artificial scales were developed by Su Chen himself. Since Su Chen said there were problems, of course only he could take a look.

After being coaxed away in a daze, Jiang Zhixia turned around and went back to the lounge.

I buried my head in my pillow, deciding not to think about anything anymore and to catch up on some sleep first.

I slept soundly for ages.

When I woke up, I felt like all the bones in my body were limp.

She stretched and opened her eyes to see Lu Jue sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a strand of her hair in his hand, seemingly lost in thought.

"My lady, you're awake?"

When Lu Jue saw her open her eyes, his eyes lit up, and he leaned over to help her comb her messy hair.

Jiang Zhixia leaned lazily against the pillow, letting him do as he pleased.

Lu Jue opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"My lady, is that Federation commander-in-chief Mu Huaye?"

Jiang Zhixia's mind was still a bit foggy from just waking up, and she was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.

"...You're only just finding out?"

She thought Lu Jue would be able to notice.

After all, besides Mu Huaye, how many capable fighters does the Federation have?

Lu Jue paused, then pursed his lips somewhat awkwardly.

"I was too busy fighting on the battlefield..."

He was indeed not interested in other males; he didn't even recognize Mu Huaye.

Looking back now at the look in Jiang Ting's eyes when he told him to "think for himself"... was he looking down on him for being slow-witted?

Seeing his expression, Jiang Zhixia couldn't help but chuckle.

"Yes, it's him."

Lu Jue's expression instantly became complicated.

"When did that snake escape back to the Federation? And he's actually working for the Federation? Is he out of his mind?"

In Lu Jue's mind, Mu Huaye did not have a good life in the Federation. The Federation leader, under the guise of being his adoptive father, threatened his life and used him as an organ bank.

If it were him, he wouldn't have returned to the Federation.

Jiang Zhixia listened and nodded in deep agreement.

"I think so too."

Why would Mu Huaye go back to that lousy Federation?

Qiao Yan treats him like an organ bank. The entire Federation is nothing but a drag on. What's the point of him going back?

Do you want to be a pitiful little thing?

She subconsciously put Mu Huaye into the persona of "a pitiful little thing being persecuted by the Federation".

They completely forgot how renowned Mu Huaye's reputation for "brutality and treachery" was in the Federation.
