I controlled the entire Zerg race with my superb culinary skills.

Four hours after Chu Yang was imprisoned in the Royal Prison, Zhuo Qingyue and Li Yang brought in a bug dressed in a dark green military uniform to visit him.

"You may all leave. I have questions that I need to ask you privately."

Zhuo Qingyue spoke to the two female soldiers guarding the prison. The female soldiers guarding the prison immediately withdrew.

"Chu Yang."

After the female soldier left, Li Yang called out to him through the prison gate.

Chu Yang, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, slowly opened his eyes. He was still wearing the same suit that had been stained green with blood.

After Zhuo Qingyue entered the password, the prison door opened, and Li Yang and the female soldier with her head down immediately walked in.

He then closed the prison door and set up anti-peeping and anti-eavesdropping modes.

"Uncle Li, Marshal, what brings you here?"

The female soldier following behind raised her head, took off her military cap, and revealed a cool and aloof face.

"Wen, what are you doing here? It's too dangerous."

Chu Yang got out of bed and pulled the cold blankets next to him over to make room to sit.

"Chu Yang, there's still time. Change into my clothes and let's go."

As Wen Huaijin spoke, he kept taking off his military uniform.

Seeing him like this, Chu Yang grabbed his hand as he took off his clothes and shook his head.

"No need. Even if I leave, the Insect King will not let me go. Father Wen, I only have one request: please protect my family insects from now on."

Chu Yang's attitude was resolute. He regretted wasting time talking so much with Xiao Mufeng and delaying the time to kill him.

"Chu Yang, just follow our plan. Even if Huai Jin has replaced you now, we still have a way to get him out."

Li Yang also came over to persuade him. According to the plan, the time for them to take revenge on the Insect King and the Wen family was coming soon. However, they did not expect that such a thing would happen at this critical moment, forcing them to rescue Chu Yang first.

"So the marshal is one of your men?"

Chu Yang looked at Zhuo Qingyue, who was standing behind him with his hands in his pockets.

"Hey, I'm not one of them. I just received financial support from my father, Lan He, back then, and I'm still repaying the favor."

"Hehe, then thank you for turning a blind eye, Marshal. But my mind is made up. I will take responsibility for my own actions. I will trouble Uncle Li and others to take care of D06 in the future."

Seeing that they couldn't persuade Chu Yang, they had no choice but to give up and think of another way.

Because the matter was so egregious, even the Insect King attended the court hearing the following day.

He watched the entire trial proceedings on a large screen in a private lounge.

Many insects came to watch today. In addition to the military marshals and generals, there were also many top insect talents from all walks of life. The entire trial was also broadcast live.

When Chu Yang was brought up, he had changed into a clean set of black casual clothes. Coupled with his short black hair parted in a 3/7 ratio, he looked lazy yet exuded a touch of roguish charm.

In the audience, Chu Xinhang, Xu Le, and Shen Nanxi were so worried when they saw Chu Yang come out that they almost cried.

As the defense lawyer, Wang Xingheng glanced at the audience and silently encouraged himself, determined to do his best to secure the lightest possible punishment.

Li Yang's face was grim, his hand constantly touching his pocket. Li Yizhou next to him also looked worriedly at Chu Yang in the courtroom. Although it had only been one night, he seemed to have become much more weathered.

Chu Yang gave a knowing smile to the familiar insects in the audience.

The entire courtroom fell silent as the presiding judge struck the gavel.

"The trial is now officially in session. The following is the trial of Chu Yang for the crimes of cruelly murdering Prince Wenrui's entire family of thirty-five insects, including two male insects, and for intentionally harming members of the royal family."

The presiding judge was a slightly older female insect, who held in her hand the verdict on Chu Yang's crimes, as well as the punishment personally issued by the Insect King.

Although the outcome was set in stone, the proper defense procedures still had to be followed. The presiding judge genuinely admired Chu Yang's actions.

"Now, please let the defense lawyers begin their defense."

Wang Xingheng was dressed very formally today; this lake-blue suit was his favorite piece of clothing.

Upon hearing that the defense had begun, he stood up and gave a slight smile to the judge and the audience.

"Your Honor, we applied for a mental strength assessment of Mr. Chu Yang last night, and here are the results."

He excitedly presented the packaged test results to the presiding judge.

Sure enough, when the presiding judge saw the result, his eyes widened in surprise, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

He couldn't believe his eyes and handed the result to the insects next to him.

When they saw it, they all had the same expression as the judge, because the results showed that Lord Chu Yang's mental strength was actually S-level.

"Your Honor, Lord Chu Yang's mental strength is S-level, the only S-level male insect in the entire Zerg race."

Wang Xingheng spoke very loudly, wanting all the insects present to hear him.

What? S-rank?

[It's actually an S-grade male insect.]

The Zerg haven't produced an S-rank male in hundreds of thousands of years.

[My goodness, I knew Lord Chu Yang was extraordinary! He actually possesses S-rank mental strength.]

……

The courtroom erupted in uproar; all the insects were stunned, and even the Insect King, who was watching the live stream from the lounge, was greatly shocked.

The insect servant beside him received the test reports sent by the judge, which consisted of three copies, each issued by one of the three most authoritative hospitals. All three reports confirmed that the individual possessed S-level mental strength.

After establishing his first advantage, Wang Xingheng played his second trump card.

It was a research report about the D06 Planet Research Institute, with Dean Li's handwritten signature on it.

"Your Honor, Lord Chu Yang is currently the only insectoid being capable of growing vegetables and fruits from the soil. What I have here is a research report from the research institute, and all the insectoid researchers involved in this research are also present."

After he finished speaking, Dean Li led Zhang Lang, Wu Ge, and Mu Yong, three insects, up from the audience seats and, under the gaze of all the insects, went to the witness stand in the courtroom.

The presiding judge was once again shocked by the contents of the research report, and his hands began to tremble slightly. He had to adjust his glasses every time he turned a page of the report.

"Your Honor, this research report was started more than a decade ago when we discovered that Mr. Chu Yang had successfully grown vegetables from soil in his own backyard. The experimental photos and the seeds used in later experiments were all picked from Mr. Chu Yang's backyard."

After Dean Li finished speaking, he took out a video recorder, and a virtual screen immediately appeared in the courtroom, showing their experimental process.

The video directly recorded the entire process of them leaving the research institute and going to Chu Yang's backyard to pick seeds.

[Oh my god, are those strawberries? I've never seen so many strawberries before.]

We've seen them many times at Lord Chu Yang's house, and even picked them ourselves; those strawberries were big and sweet.

I've eaten there too. For a while, Chu Yang's hot pot restaurant even gave us fresh strawberries as a gift.

[Please help me check, am I going blind? Are all those patches of fresh vegetables?]

You're not blind, I can vouch for that, because I saw it too.

……

As the recording played, the entire interstellar space was once again shocked, especially the research institutes on various planets.

Looking at the research report in his hand, the Insect King regretted not issuing a death order immediately after the incident.
