Samuel occasionally meets Pein. They used to dislike each other, but now that they are in the same palace, their conflicts have rarely been reduced.

During this time, the Insect Emperor suffered a strange illness, and Pei Yin volunteered to cut his blood to heal him. And after every blood cut, Pein became a hundred times older than before.

Samuel took it all in.

He still drank medicine as usual, as if he hadn't seen everything.

Until one day, the Insect Emperor called him over late at night. Going with him was Bain, who was getting weaker and weaker.

The two brothers glanced at each other in the shadows, and both saw the hidden malice in each other's eyes.

Samuel lowered his eyelashes. He used to always show his emotions on his face, but at some point, he also learned to be patient.

The Insect Emperor's pupils were bright, and he seemed to have encountered something good. His usually serious face relaxed, and even his eyebrows were raised, with a bit of joy.

"Samuel, I have chosen a male insect for you." The rich voice of the Insect Emperor sounded in the empty hall, and the words circled around the room several times before reaching Samuel's ears.

Samuel did not answer. He had been resigned to the situation these past few days, but now that he heard the Insect Emperor's words, the lines on his face tightened, showing his former rebellion again.

The Insect Emperor ignored Samuel's expression, he was not here to discuss with him. As a female insect, she cannot reproduce for the insect race, so what is the significance of Samuel's existence?

She is an S-class military female, which is higher than the Insect Emperor. Unless Samuel volunteers, the Insect Emperor cannot obtain life force from him.

The Insect Emperor knew without even thinking that there was no way Samuel would die for him.

This selfish female insect is unwilling to provide life force to the Insect Emperor, nor is she willing to give birth to cubs for the Insects. Now that she has been fed so many medicines, she has no tendency to advance to Double S. Samuel is simply worse than Leary. Want waste.

"Next week, you and Pein will go to see that male insect together." The Insect Emperor fixed his gaze on the two insects for a while before saying quietly.

Pein was standing aside with a normal expression. After hearing this, he immediately raised his head and said, "...Samuel and I are going together?"

There was a slight tremor in his voice, and he knew exactly what the Insect Emperor meant in his words.

Although the banquet between Pei Yin and Song Shijin was ruined, the Insect Emperor promised him that he would only postpone their wedding. How could the Insect Emperor throw him to another male insect now?

"That's a mutated male insect, and it's of a very high level. As expected, he will be promoted to level A in a few days. You are the prince, and I have given you the priority to mate with him." The corner of the Insect Emperor's mouth appeared. An unknown smile.

"You must cherish this opportunity."

A brief silence fell in the air.

Pein clenched his wrist, which was covered with scars left after he cut blood for the Insect Emperor.

"Your Majesty, didn't you say...that you would let Song Shijin and I..." Pein was speechless.

The Insect Emperor sneered, he still knew how open the Zerg females were. Many low-level female insects don't even have the opportunity to have their own male leaders. Being able to mate with a male insect is already a gift from the insect god.

How could Pei Yin be so shrewd and still care about this? Song Shijin was a high-level male, and so was the mutated male. In the eyes of the Insect Emperor, there was no difference between them.

Even... that mutated male insect was better than Song Shijin.

Pein's fingertips trembled slightly and he blinked, feeling a little sore in his eyes.

"Insect Emperor, Song Shijin and I..."

The Insect Emperor frowned and waved his hand to Pein. He said quietly: "Song Shijin has already agreed."

Pein stood still, the calm expression on his face finally showing cracks.

He hadn't seen Song Shijin for a long time.

After the banquet, Pei Yin stayed in the palace for a long time, and Song Shijin had no intention of visiting him. He had always put Atamia first, and now that Song Shijin was going on a mission with Atamia, it was even more impossible to think of him.

It is a grave sin for a female insect to be jealous... Pein raised the corners of his lips mockingly.

He's not jealous. He can tolerate them both generously.

But no one can trample on him like this.

In less than a minute, Bain returned to his original state. He looked at the Insect Emperor and said expressionlessly: "Yes, Insect Emperor."

Samuel didn't speak from beginning to end. He didn't know what he was thinking. His lips were tightened and his eyes wandered erratically on the golden eye pattern in the main hall.

The Insect Emperor chose a day for the two of them. A week later, he would let them go to mate with the male insect.

Neither Samuel nor Pein showed resistance. The Insect Emperor propped his chin and looked at them for a while before leaving the hall with the help of his attendants.

Samuel watched the Insect Emperor's back disappear around the corner, and then walked out of the palace gate with the same expression.

He deliberately slowed down his pace.

Sure enough, within a few seconds, Pein quickly walked up to him from behind.

"Samuel, I promise you what you said before." The expression on Bain's face was as strange as ever, but his voice was low and filled with unknown ruthlessness.

A very faint smile appeared on the corner of Samuel's mouth. He rarely learned to be polite, "Thank you."

Pein snorted coldly. If Leary hadn't died, he would never have cooperated with Samuel.

"Once the matter is exposed, it has nothing to do with me." Pein looked straight ahead and said coldly, "Don't even want me to collect the body for you."

Naturally, Samuel didn't want to die. If Lin Yue couldn't see him when he came back, he would probably cry, make trouble, and hang himself again.

But something always forces him to make a choice. Bain's vitality won't last long, and he will end up like Leary sooner or later.

Samuel couldn't save Leary, so he couldn't give up on Bain now. This was done not only for Bain, but for himself as well.

"Don't worry, all the blame falls on me." Samuel said softly, "You just have to pretend you didn't see anything."

Pein stopped and looked up at the sky. The clouds there were dense, blocking all the light and warmth that could be sensed by the insects.

"Samuel, run away if you can't succeed." Pein turned his head, and his figure disappeared around the corner in an instant, "Don't die with the Insect Emperor."

Samuel sneered. After all these years, Pein finally said a few normal words that could be heard.

He returned to his room and played with the pistol he took off his waist as if nothing had happened. The guard outside the door stood two or three meters away from him, staring at him motionless.

Samuel curled his lips at them, then stood up and stepped forward to close the door.

He slammed the door with such force that it buzzed. Samuel leaned against the door and subconsciously looked at the badge placed on the corner of his desk.

Lin Yue hid his only military merit in the drawer like a treasure, but he didn't know that Samuel had already taken away the badge inadvertently.
