Miss Loser is too enchanting

"Insolence! How dare you speak to your mother in such a way!" Lan Hong shouted at Lan Yue with a stern face, seeing how upset Gu’e was.

Lan Yue’s heart skipped a beat from Lan Hong’s shout. She glared at him and said, "And who are you to yell at me?"

"I’m yelling at you because I’m your father!" Lan Hong roared.

"I don’t know you!" Lan Yue Baby also felt a familiar feeling from them, but she couldn’t accept them as her parents right away.

"Baby, do you even know that you’re called Baby?" Gu’e asked Lan Yue, looking at her.

"Yes, I remember that before I hatched, I heard a voice calling me Baby all the time; that’s how I knew my name was Baby. ’Lan Yue’ was a name my sister gave me." Lan Yue’s attitude towards the gentle Gu’e was still very good.

Upon hearing Lan Yue’s words, a smile broke out on Gu’e’s face. She remembered putting Lan Yue in a small cradle, calling her Baby, and casting a mother-child curse on them both. She chuckled when she touched its eggshell. To her astonishment, it still remembered!

Dugu Qianye had nearly figured it out and asked Gu’e and Lan Hong, looking at them, "Are you Baby’s parents?"

It was only when Dugu Qianye spoke that Gu’e and Lan Hong’s attention turned to her.

"Who are you?" Lan Hong looked at Dugu Qianye disapprovingly and asked with a stern face, as the royal majesty pressed down on her.

Lan Yue, seeing Lan Hong being so fierce towards Dugu Qianye, stepped in front of her to take the pressure, struggling to resist. She looked at Lan Hong’s face, firmly asking, "Who dares to hurt my sister?"

Seeing Lan Yue’s swiftly pale face, Gu’e waved her water sleeves, dispelling Lan Hong’s pressure, and glared at him angrily, saying, "What are you doing?!" Then she turned to Lan Yue, saying, "We won’t, we won’t hurt her. We just want to know who she is?"

Lan Hong, seeing Gu’e angered and Lan Yue protecting Dugu Qianye, snorted twice and fell silent.

The Starfish Beast then realized what it had just done; it had actually led an army to besiege the little prince! This... This could cost it its life! At that moment, its only thought was: I’m doomed!

Lan Hong knew that the Starfish Beast was acting under orders and waved his hand, signaling for it to lead the troops away. Seeing the king’s command, everyone hurried to leave, fearing that if they were the last to go, the Queen would punish them.

"I am Dugu Qianye, the Pledged Master of Lan Yue; it is my Contract Beast," Dugu Qianye said, succinctly explaining her relationship with Lan Yue. Lan Yue added, "She’s my sister."

"Pledged Master!" Both Gu’e and Lan Hong were shocked by this term!

Dugu Qianye felt a bit embarrassed as well; their son had just been contracted by her, no less than the little prince of the Sea Beasts. The atmosphere turned a bit awkward. But Lan Yue felt no unease at all, proudly stating, "I contracted her willingly!"

"Let’s go back and discuss this," Gu’e said, not knowing what else to do. It had been hard enough to discover her child alive and to find him, but then, to learn in an instant that he had been contracted by someone was hard for her to grasp.

Lan Yue looked at Dugu Qianye and said, "Wherever my sister goes, I will go."

Dugu Qianye saw the hopeful look on Gu’e’s face and nodded in agreement. Afterward, they all returned to the Royal Palace together.

Throughout the journey, the Sea Beasts kept looking at Dugu Qianye, a human, accompanying their king, feeling quite curious and stole glances at them.

Upon arriving at the Royal Palace, Gu’e and Dugu Qianye walked on either side of Lan Yue, with Lan Hong beside Gu’e. They all entered the great hall, where Lan Hong took his seat on the throne, while Gu’e sat next to Baby Lan Yue.

Dugu Qianye, looking at the affectionate expression on Gu’e’s face, said, "Queen, although you say you are Lan Yue’s parents, I found it on the Spirit Void Continent. Can you be sure that it is your child?"

Gu’e turned her gaze towards Dugu Qianye and said, "I am certain. There is a mother-child curse between us." After speaking, she activated the curse on her side, and a faint red line appeared on her right wrist, with a similar red line appearing on Baby Lan Yue’s hand.

"This is the mother-child curse. As soon as the baby appeared, I could feel it," Gu’e said, looking at the red line on Lan Yue’s hand, "I felt his presence a while ago but the distance was great, I only sensed that he was alive. Hong sent many people to look for him, but no one found him. Who would have thought we would see him today."

"The time you’re talking about must be when Lan Yue and I formed a contract. His strength suddenly grew to that of an advance level Divine Beast, and he couldn’t control his own pressure. But after that, he did not show up again, so you couldn’t sense his presence," Dugu Qianye thought it must have been that occasion.

On the topic of contracts, Lan Hong’s face grew even gloomier.

"Is it true, are you really my parents?" Lan Yue asked Gu’e.

Gu’e nodded her head and said, "It’s true, I really am your mother." With that, she transformed into her beast form, which indeed was the same as Lan Yue’s. Then she transformed back into her human form and looked at Lan Yue.

"Mother," Lan Yue had long felt that familiar scent deep in his memory but had never dared to confirm it in his heart. Then, looking at Lan Hong, he asked, "Is he my father?"

Gu’e, touching Lan Yue’s face, said, "Yes, you are my child. But you should call me Mother Queen and your father Father King."

"Why? Sister calls them dad and mom," Baby Lan Yue asked confusedly.

"Because your father is the king of the Sea Clan, and I am the queen of the Sea Clan. Thus, you must call us Father King and Mother Queen," Gu’e explained, "It’s Mother Queen’s fault for not taking good care of you, which caused you so much suffering."

"How did Lan Yue end up on the Spirit Void Continent?" Dugu Qianye asked.

"Ah, speaking of that, it all started with the internal war of the Sea Clan." Gu’e had barely begun to speak when an old man with a turtle shell slowly strolled in.

The old turtle came into the hall, slowly bowed and said, "Great King, you’re back!"

"Old Turtle, is there something you need?" Lan Hong asked.

"Oh, it’s like this, there’s news about the Whale Shark Clan," Old Turtle said. Seeing Lan Yue, his eyes lit up and he suddenly appeared in front of him, grabbing his hand and exclaiming, "Is this the Young Highness? My, how you’ve grown!"

Lan Hong rubbed his head, looking at Old Turtle and saying, "Old Turtle, please catch up with Lan Yue later. Let’s first discuss the news about the Whale Shark Clan."

Old Turtle then remembered the reason for his visit and said, "Right, I almost forgot. The news today speaks of the Whale Shark Clan gathering a large number of experts, preparing to launch an attack on the Royal Palace."

"What?!" Lan Hong sprang from the throne upon hearing the news, angrily exclaiming, "The Whale Shark Clan really has some nerve, too brazen for their own good!"

"Does the Whale Shark Clan really think we’re soft persimmons they can squeeze whenever they want?" Gu’e, who had always been kind and approachable, said with a stern look, "If that’s the case, then let us show them a fight, and see who is the true force to be reckoned with—their motley crew or us!"
