A Star Reborn: The Queen's Return - Chapter 1345

Chapter 1345: Are You the Queen

She did not want to die.

The rebuilding and legacy of the Skatana Planet rested in her hands.

However, that blow was too quick and powerful. The energy of Skatana Planet in her body had already been exhausted in this conflict. Even if she used the remaining energy, it was too late. She could only curl her body to protect her chest and abdomen, close her eyes and wait for fate.

The devastating blow that she envisaged did not happen.

The wind roared around her as if a violent storm was approaching. Broken bricks started to tumble down.

But she was safe and sound.

There were so many broken bricks and pieces of furniture, but not a single speck of dust fell on her.

She looked up in surprise and realized that Wei Lingnan was looking at her in surprise as well. Truthfully, he looked baffled. She only realized then that she was surrounded by a layer of faint light that did not exist on Earth. It was close to a translucent golden-green and was gorgeous and extremely bright. Its intricate lines were like ripples and resembled the branches of a plant.

“The World Tree!” Wei Lingnan uttered in disbelief.

Only then did Xia Yingluo realize that the mysterious light protecting her resembled the World Tree on Skatana Planet. Its branches were unique and very different from any other plant on Earth. It protected her like a mother warmly protecting her child. How could this be?! Xia Yingluo was unable to explain this. Why did the World Tree suddenly protect her? Even when she was on Skatana Planet and was the noble queen, the World Tree never appeared in this form before!

In fact, this never happened before in the history of the Skatana Planet!

The mysterious force around her body was like no other. On the other hand, Wei Lingnan was already half kneeling down. He shook as he held out his hand to touch the ever-changing ripples with his fingertips. The moment his fingertips touched the ripples, the golden-green leaves instantly turned bloody red. With a flash and sharp whistling sound, he was rebounded!

Wei Lingnan was caught off guard and sent flying back a few meters. Blood dripped from the place where his fingers touched the light, exposing his bones.

He looked at his fingers in disbelief. The wound showed no signs of healing at all. Through the wound, he felt a trace of violent and familiar energy. It was… the energy of the World Tree!

This protective force was really related to the World Tree!

He stared at Xia Yingluo again. This time his eyes were terrifying as he tried to search for an answer.

Xia Yingluo only reacted when she saw his ferocious gaze. Ignoring her wounded body, she stood up, held the wall and ran out in a daze. After some time, she felt that she was stabbed by a thousand knives and she crouched down in pain. Her face turned pale and she started shaking.

The night mist covered the dim moonlight.

She panted, her steps were messy and she did not know how long she ran for. It was as if she ran for millions of years…

Finally, she pushed open the door of the Li Family’s villa and passed out.

When she awoke, the entire family was by her side.

Her mother Xia Ling tightly held her hand. “Yingluo! You’re finally awake!” Tears fell continuously from her face. “You went to look for Wei Lingnan again, right? Do you know how worried we were? That bastard is not worthy of you!”

Xia Yingluo forced a smile on her pale face. She tried to move to comfort her mother but could not even lift a finger.

“Don’t move.” Beside Xia Ling, Xia Moyan said. “Your body was injured too severely. You need a lot of rest.”

Xia Yingluo did not dare to move anymore. She could tell how bad her physical condition was. Her entire body felt as if it were shattered by an earthquake. She did not even know if her internal organs and bones were intact. Although the second wave of Wei Lingnan’s attack was offset by a mysterious shield, the first wave was enough to seriously injure her. She was lucky to not have died.

“Who the hell are you?” A low and hoarse voice echoed in the room like a beast. “Why did the World Tree protect you?”

Xia Yingluo was startled. Looking up, she saw a man appear the gap between her mother and her uncle on the bed. He was wearing a dirty white shirt mixed with dust and blood. His hair was messy and his eyes were bloodshot. It was Wei Lingnan.

Why was he here?!

She turned around, frowned and looked at her mother and uncle in dissatisfaction.

Xia Moyan’s face was as cold as ice. “That night, you fainted at our doorstep. Not long after the housekeeper brought you in, this man came along. We couldn’t chase him away.” There were not many people in the world who could hurt Xia Yingluo. More specifically, her enemies could be counted with one hand. In the middle of the night, she came back with severe injuries and Wei Lingnan. Even an idiot could guess who hurt her.

Xia Moyan wanted to kick Wei Lingnan out immediately, and the two of them even fought for a while. When Earth’s Guardian fought with an inhabitant of the Skatana Planet, an entire villa of the Li Family was destroyed. In the end, Xia Moyan held a special gun to Wei Lingnan’s temple. “Even if ordinary guns on Earth can’t hurt you, mine can. Do you understand?”

Wei Lingnan looked at him seriously. “I believe that this gun can kill me and believe that you dare to fire it. However, what happened to Yingluo is very important to me. Even if you kill me, let me find out what happened first.” After that, he lowered his head. “Please.”

Xia Moyan looked at him for a long time before keeping his gun.

He was not sure what his niece was thinking. After all, the two of them were entangled deeply in their previous lives. No matter how much she said she hated him, she would definitely be sad if he really hurt him. It was better to wait for her to wake up before he proceeded further.

Thus, a group of people waited for Xia Yingluo to wake up.

After Xia Yingluo heard that Wei Lingnan refused to leave, she trembled with anger. “What else do you want? Wei Lingnan, do you want to see me dead before you’re satisfied? Get lost! I want you to get lost! If you don’t leave, I will kill you!”

She was so angry that her chest violently rose and her eyes became red.

However, Wei Lingnan did not move and tolerated her scolding. He was no longer as violent as the past. He only said, “Why are you able to harness the power of the World Tree from the Skatana Planet? Who exactly are you such that the World Tree protected you? Are you… the Queen?”
