Watching the receding figure, Li Yang felt a mix of emotions.

"He's your only female child, are you just going to let him go like that? Aren't you afraid he won't come back?"

Zhuo Qingyue moved to Li Yang's side and watched his figure disappear into the distance.

"It's his own choice, and I respect it, as long as he doesn't regret it."

Before Chu Yang could properly say goodbye to them, he was taken onto the military's aircraft.

"How did you come?"

Chu Yang looked at Li Yizhou, who came up with him, with a complicated expression.

“You are the dominant one on my marriage certificate, and I must follow you.”

"No, I don't recognize this marriage certificate. You should leave now."

Chu Yang, who had remained calm throughout, became agitated at this moment. He raised his bound hands and pushed him hard.

"You can't follow me."

Li Yizhou staggered back a few steps, his expression unchanged as he looked at Chu Yang, ignoring him, and instead walked to the chair next to him and sat down.

No matter how much Chu Yang tried to persuade him along the way, he ignored him completely and eventually walked away impatiently.

Chu Yang tried to persuade him but to no avail, so he simply gave up. He had always been like this since he met him, and now that he had made up his mind to follow him, he was even more determined.

The female soldiers escorting them to the desolate planet were also reluctant, after all, he was the only S-class male insectoid, and his importance was self-evident, but they could not disobey the insectoid king's orders.

So the female soldiers on the aircraft packed up all the nutrient solutions they could carry and other things they might need from the entire warehouse.

"Your Excellency Chu Yang, these are the things we've gathered that you might need. Although we also hope you can be released without charge, we cannot disobey the imperial decree."

Chu Yang was deeply moved when he saw the white backpack they handed him.

"thank you all."

"Your Excellency Chu Yang, we are almost at our destination. You must come back alive."

"Yes, I will come back alive."

Upon reaching their destination, Chu Yang and Li Yizhou landed on the desolate planet in a small aircraft piloted by a robotic insect.

As soon as they opened the door, a gust of wind carrying sand rushed towards them, stinging their faces from the fine grains of sand. After they disembarked from the aircraft, the mechanical insect immediately flew it back.

Before me stretched an endless expanse of yellow sand, like a desert, and the sandstorms were fierce, making it difficult to walk against the wind and sand.

Chu Yang held Li Yizhou's hand tightly. He walked ahead, shielding his forehead with his arm, taking one step at a time.

"Let's find a place where there's no wind to hide."

"it is good."

Following behind him, Li Yizhou felt at ease. He could finally be with Chu Yang, and he even felt a little bit of anticipation.

Chu Yang didn't know how long he had been walking, but he still couldn't see the end of the desert. The sky was getting darker and darker. It was very dangerous in this situation, and he had to find a place to stay as soon as possible.

Finally, before it got completely dark, he found several huge rocks and immediately pulled Li Yizhou toward the corner of the rocks.

With the massive rocks blocking their view, the sandstorm finally stopped blowing on them. Chu Yang shook the yellow sand out of his hair and clothes.

Li Yizhou wasn't in much better shape; his long purple hair was disheveled and dry from the wind and sand, with many small grains of sand stuck in his hair.

"Sit down, I'll help you."

"Ah."

Chu Yang ran his fingers through his long hair, gently shaking off the sand from his hairline and carefully untangling the knotted strands.

Holding a white backpack, Li Yizhou felt Chu Yang's fingers running through his scalp and hair, a ripple of emotion stirring within him, and a slight blush rising on his face.

After tidying up his hair, Chu Yang took off the bow tie from his collar and tied his hair into a high ponytail.

"It will be better to tie it up like this."

Li Yizhou lowered his head, not daring to let Chu Yang see his slightly flushed face.

"We'll rest here for the night, and when it gets light, we'll continue our search for a way out."

"Alright, I'm afraid there might be danger tonight. I'll keep watch tonight, you should get some rest."

Li Yizhou had encountered this kind of harsh environment before. Back then, when his female father took him around to hunt down strange beasts, he had encountered it several times. The seemingly peaceful sandy surface would become fraught with danger at night.

"Then you keep watch for the first half of the night, and I'll take over for the second half."

After the two insects drank a packet of nutrient solution, Chu Yang crossed his arms in front of his chest, leaned against the rock behind him, and closed his eyes.

Li Yizhou looked at Chu Yang, who had already fallen asleep, stood up, set up a defensive shield around the area, and held a purple laser pistol in his hand.

The temperature dropped sharply at night. Li Yizhou took off his coat and covered Chu Yang with it, staring at his face, unwilling to look away.

After Chu Yang was revealed to be Lan He's male son, he vaguely felt that the male insect he was engaged to was him, but he didn't dare to ask, afraid that he would still be rejected even if he knew the result.

At night, a few scattered stars twinkled in the dark sky. This drifting, desolate star had been there for nine years and was about to disappear.

A rustling sound came from the sand. The Zerg had very keen vision and hearing, and Li Yizhou pulled the trigger without hesitation in that direction.

Soon, the rustling sound disappeared. He stood up, walked outside the defensive shield, and kicked the spot where he had just been. Sure enough, a black snake as thick as an arm came out.

Li Yizhou frowned. This kind of snake is very common in the desert. Their teeth are highly venomous. Fortunately, he shot the snake in the head and it was already dead.

In the middle of the night, Chu Yang opened his eyes and looked at Li Yizhou, who was guarding him, and felt that he had let him down.

"Go and rest, I'll take over the watch."

"I'm not tired yet."

Li Yizhou put away his gun and said with a pleasant expression.

"Even if you're not tired, you still need to rest. We have to keep going tomorrow, so go get some sleep."

Chu Yang draped Li Yizhou's coat over him and let him sit in his previous spot to rest, while he sat in the front seat, holding the gun that had materialized from the mecha.

Watching his retreating figure, Li Yizhou's tense heart relaxed. Being with him always made him feel at ease. He tugged at his coat, which still carried his scent.

In the quiet of the latter half of the night, Chu Yang held the family photo he had taken earlier, wondering if Youyou was awake yet, how he was feeling after waking up, and whether the other children were behaving properly.

Thinking of the house bug, Chu Yang's eyes sharpened. He didn't regret what he had done, only that he hadn't killed Xiao Mufeng. Now he was very worried that Xiao Mufeng would retaliate.

As the sun rose, sunlight shone on Chu Yang and Li Yizhou's faces. The temperature was already rising, and it would probably soon become high.

"Let's keep going while it's not too hot yet."

"it is good."

There was no wind today, it was a nice day. In order to find a new place to stay as soon as possible, Li Yizhou would occasionally carry Chu Yang and fly for a while.

The desert was vast, and they walked for countless days, their nutrient solution running low. To conserve food, they planned to drink one packet of nutrient solution for three days.

To conserve energy, Chu Yang wouldn't allow Li Yizhou to carry him any longer, and the two insects walked forward hand in hand.

"careful!"

Chu Yang lost his footing and fell into the sandpit. He immediately let go of Li Yizhou's hand to prevent him from being caught in the crossfire.

"It's quicksand."

One of the dangers that often occurs in the desert is that Li Yizhou, seeing Chu Yang's body sinking deeper and deeper, did not hesitate to spread his insect wings and fly over to pull him out.
