To help Ka'er quit the hallucinogen, Kai tied him to a chair and guarded him for ten days and ten nights. During this period, his spouse came once, brought him some changes of clothes, and then sighed and went back.

Fortunately, Kai discovered Ka'er's use of the hallucinogen not long after it started and intervened in time to stop it, preventing the addiction from becoming irreversible. Plus, Ka'er had been trained by the Federation since childhood, and his physical fitness and willpower were not comparable to ordinary males, which is why he managed to walk back from the gates of hell.

It was just that although the addiction was broken, the person seemed like he had been scrapped.

Before, at least he would talk and fight; now, he didn't say a word all day long, a completely different person from the unrestrained and rebellious man before.

Kai looked at Ka'er, who was sitting withered in front of the window, and sighed silently.

"I'm leaving, I'll come see you again tomorrow."

"..."

"If you are willing, it would be best to go back to Ausilan once."

"..."

Kai looked at his motionless back, shook his head, and ultimately didn't say anything more, turning and leaving.

He piloted the flying ship not into the interstellar route, but flying low in the airspace. Because this way he could avoid sudden hydrogen bombs and various attacks.

The interstellar space of today had already been riddled with holes by the ravages of war.

The Aosilan Diguo was no longer the small member state of the past, but the second-largest power besides the Federation, having successively attacked and annexed six Federation member states within the last five years.

Now everyone knew that the Sun of Aosilan, Ash Laiboli, was a madman.

He attacked every country without reason or discrimination, regardless of whether the other party was strong or weak, enemy or friend.

Aosilan Diguo.

A group of guards who had just finished their shift were carrying their weapons and walking home, chatting along the way.

"Have you heard? We are going to attack Suote again."

"Ah? Didn't we fight for a year before, and then there was a truce? We're fighting again now?"

"Who knows what the... that person is thinking. I heard from a buddy on duty in the Huangting that ever since that person, cough cough," a guard lowered his voice, looking left and right, and said very cautiously: "It was after the Empress left, that person developed a strange illness, often suffering from splitting headaches. Whenever he had a headache, he would go mad, either smashing everything around him to pieces or killing people. I heard that only by seeing blood would that person's headache be relieved."

"Is it that mysterious?"

Another guard leaned in, "I also heard that as long as he enters the ancient castle where Empress Daixi was imprisoned back then, he stops having episodes, as if the whole person is normal again... I'm really curious, could there be a cure from the Shoushen in that castle?"

"Don't know, don't know, stop talking nonsense, watch out for getting your head twisted off and kicked around like a ball."

"Let's go, let's go drink."

A group of people swayed and gradually disappeared at the end of the street.

At this time, a little youth wearing a hood appeared from the shadows, and he agilely avoided the guards' patrol route and sneaked into the Huangting.

"Who goes there!"

A guard keenly discovered the traces of this little youth. When he approached, he used his long spear to flick off the hood of his cloak. Instantly, two snake heads opened their bloody mouths at the guard, flicking their tongues. The guard's scalp went numb, and before he could even scream, he was strangled on the spot within a few seconds.

Qiaoxia retracted his beast form, returned to the appearance of a youth, and once again wandered silently through the Huangting, walking toward the direction of the ancient castle.

Top floor of the ancient castle. Liliya stood behind Hawisi, nervously tugging at her skirt, looking at the man in front of her.

They all said that Uncle Laiboli had become very terrifying, not only temperamental but even killing people like hemp. Liliya held her brother's hand in fear, her big eyes full of worry.

"So who was responsible for the guard duty at the Prince and Princess's palace today?" Laiboli coldly questioned the row of servants kneeling in front of him.

"Sun, please forgive us... we will never make this mistake again..." the servants pleaded with tears in their eyes.

One of the servants was exceptionally agitated, kneeling and throwing himself at Hawisi's feet, crying out: "Little Prince, please help us plead for mercy, we really didn't leave our posts without authorization."

Hawisi frowned and stood out, saying to Laiboli: "Godfather, it was I who brought Liliya out secretly, it has nothing to do with them."

Ever since Hawisi learned that Laiboli had driven his father out of the Huangting, he no longer felt close to Laiboli. At this moment, having to humble himself to beg him made him feel even more filled with humiliation.

Laiboli only glanced at him, then moved his gaze away, slightly lifting his chin, signaling his subordinates: "Drag all these people down, ten electric baton strikes each, and drive them out of the Huangting."

The servants wailed and cried instantly, Hawisi looked at Laiboli angrily, and Liliya was already scared to tears.

Laiboli frowned instantly, closing his eyes and pressing his temples with his hand, seemingly trying his best to endure something, saying: "Your voices are too loud, you will disturb her."

The subordinates immediately covered the servants' mouths and quickly dragged them all away.

Hawisi clenched his fists and stood in front of Laiboli, shouting angrily: "Godfather, why do you have to do this? They clearly did nothing wrong!"

"They did nothing wrong," Laiboli looked down at him faintly, "The one who is wrong is you; you shouldn't have brought your sister here, but I won't punish you, because I want you to remember that you are a Prince of the Aosilan Diguo, and every decision you make has a price behind it."

Hawisi was about to argue with him further, but was pulled hard by Liliya.

Laiboli's gaze looked at the little girl with tear-stained face, seemingly missing something through her, remaining silent for a long time.

Liliya saw him walking toward her and shrank back in fear. Just as the man reached out his hand, she closed her eyes in fright, but instead of the slap she imagined, it was a gentle embrace.

She opened her eyes slightly in surprise, discovering that she had been picked up by Uncle Laiboli.

"Hawisi, go back. Bring those three guys to see me tomorrow. Recently, the teachers have reported to me that you are always distracted in class. I want to see how much knowledge you've actually learned."

Those three guys referred to Laiboli's three biological sons, whose grades were worse than the next, but whose personalities were cleverer than the next. The four little lions had suffered many losses under the three brothers since they were young; they couldn't compare in terms of cunning. Because the six deer cubs lacked fatherly love and motherly love since childhood, they developed a habit of competition and were very insecure. The three little princesses were also very arrogant and willful, but their nature was very kind; it was just that if this personality wasn't corrected in time, it would be easy to go astray when they grew up. Therefore, Hawisi and the others didn't like to play with them.

Just like at this moment, Laiboli was holding Liliya; if his three little princesses saw this, they would inevitably cry and make a scene for three days and three nights. They had been jealous of Liliya's appearance since they were young; the child Luka doted on most was Liliya, and even their own father liked her especially, just because she looked the most like her mother.

After Laiboli finished speaking, he directly carried Liliya into the inner hall.

Once inside, Liliya shivered. Laiboli casually picked up the blanket on the sofa chair and wrapped her in it, asking: "Do you miss Mom? Is that why you ran in secretly?"

Liliya nodded, saying in a childish voice: "Uncle Laiboli, can you let my brothers and me come to see Mom often in the future? If... if you could let Dad come too..." She saw Laiboli's face sink and didn't dare to speak anymore.

Laiboli said: "I never stopped him from coming. It's he himself who doesn't dare to see her."

Seeing Liliya tilt her head in confusion, Laiboli reached out and rubbed her head, "Mom is asleep. If you come, you will disturb her."

"Then when will Mom wake up? We will be very quiet, we'll come when she wakes up."

Laiboli's heart ached, restraining his emotions, but his eyes were already red. His voice trembled, but he tried his best to suppress it, choking out: "I don't know either. Shall we wait for Mom to wake up together?"

Telling a supernatural event: I was writing about entering the game world when my computer started dropping frames for no reason, flickering on and off, lasting for forty seconds... It scared me into stopping typing. PS. Don't forget to vote today. (End of chapter)
