Chapter 108 Confession

At this moment, Marshal Ye and his group were not in a good situation. Perhaps due to the lack of pheromones, a Zerg creature slowly crawled into the cave.

Marshal Ye and his men seized the opportunity and swiftly killed him.

However, the sound attracted the attention of the Zerg outside, and more Zerg rushed in.

Marshal Ye's eyes narrowed, and he whispered to Xiao Feng and Xiao Fei, "Prepare for battle!"

Before he finished speaking, he had already rushed towards the cave entrance.

With a flash of his lightsaber, he instantly slayed several Zerglings.

Xiao Fei and his companion were equally determined and launched their own attack.

In an instant, the cave was filled with the glint of swords and the flying remains of the Zerg.

But the number of Zerg is increasing, pouring into the cave like a tidal wave.

Marshal Ye and the others gradually felt the strain, their clothes soaked with sweat.

"This can't go on!" Marshal Ye shouted. "I'll cover you as you break out!"

"team leader!"

"Hurry up! Otherwise, none of us will be able to leave!"

Xiao Fei knew this was the best way. The captain's mech was broken and could not fight in space. Only if the two of them escaped could they save the captain.

Xiao Fei and Xiao Feng nodded, "Yes, Captain!"

Marshal Ye's gaze fell on the cave wall to the side, and he had an idea.

He leaped swiftly to the wall and, with all his might, smashed a large hole in the stone wall with his lightsaber.

"Quick! Get out of here!" Marshal Ye called to the two.

The two jumped out first, and didn't forget to pull Marshal Ye out as well. Unfortunately, the cave was already surrounded by insectoids.

The three of them started working together to kill the insectoids again, and Ye Yuan told the other two to take the opportunity to leave quickly.

"Xiao Fei, Xiao Feng, you should leave quickly!"

"Captain!" The two were reluctant to part.

"Hurry up and leave, or you won't be able to escape when more and more Zerg gather here!"

The two reluctantly took out their mechs. Xiao Fei even wanted to give his own mech to the captain, but he knew the captain would definitely not accept it. The best course of action now was to get out as soon as possible to contact the main force and rescue the captain.

The two piloted their mechs and drew away a large portion of the Zerg, instantly reducing Ye Yuan's combat pressure by half. However, the Zerg continued to swarm in, forcing him to keep wielding his lightsaber.

"Two Imperial mechs spotted ahead!"

"Phoenix, establish communication immediately!"

"Are you Marshal Ye's team members?"

"Yes, we are. And you are?" Xiao Fei was both excited and doubtful.

"I am Princess Mingyue, and I have come here specifically to find you. How is Marshal Ye now?" Mingyue asked anxiously.

"Princess! This is wonderful! The Marshal is still on the planet ahead; he let the two of us escape first!"

"What? Phoenix, switch to mecha form and proceed at full speed!"

Upon hearing the urgency of the situation, Mingyue disregarded everything else, immediately switched to her mecha, and sped towards Marshal Ye.

At this moment, Marshal Ye had no idea how many Zerg he had killed. His hand, which was wielding the lightsaber, was almost too heavy to lift, yet a steady stream of Zerg continued to swarm around him. He wondered if Xiao Fei and the others had returned yet.

As Marshal Ye pondered this, he waved his hand and killed some more Zerg, only to have new Zerg instantly take their place.

He was exhausted, but he was still trying his best to hold on. This time, his sword swing was a little unsteady, and he missed a Zergling. The Zergling raised its large pincers towards Marshal Ye.

Princess Mingyue broke out in a cold sweat, but thankfully she arrived in time and her mech blasted the insectoid creature to pieces.

"Ye Yuan!"

"Princess? What are you doing here! You shouldn't have come. As a royal princess, you shouldn't have put yourself in this situation!"

Mingyue didn't expect this person to start by lecturing her. Her initial worry immediately turned into annoyance. "Of course I'm here to save you. Stop talking nonsense and get out of here in your mech. The Zerg army will be coming this way soon, and we can't hold them off."

Mingyue tossed out the new mecha she had prepared in the spatial chain and rudely told him to leave immediately.

Ye Yuan realized that his attitude had been too harsh. "I'm sorry, I was just worried about you!"

"No need, you should worry about yourself!" Mingyue said coldly. She was angry. She had gone through so much trouble to save this person, and he treated her like this. Princess Mingyue felt that all her enthusiasm had been wasted.

Ye Yuan must have realized that Mingyue was angry. As he entered the mecha, he didn't forget to apologize to Mingyue, "I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have been like that. Thank you for saving me!"

"Hmph!" Mingyue was furious when she saw Ye Yuan enter the mecha unharmed and began firing at the Zerg. Marshal Ye also started attacking in his mecha. Soon after, Xiaofei and Mingyue's team arrived, and the group worked together to destroy the Zerg's planet.

Just before the Zerg army was about to arrive, the group returned to the Imperial battlefield.

"Captain, it's so good to see you're alright!" Xiao Fei and the other two were overjoyed to see Ye Yuan return.

"Alright, it's alright, we're all back!" Ye Yuan patted the two of them on the shoulders.

"I've kept your return a secret. You can rest with my troops for now!"

Marshal Ye and his two companions were somewhat puzzled, but then he suddenly realized something: "Was my plan leaked back then?"

"It's still just suspicion, so it's best for the three of you not to show yourselves for the time being."

Marshal Ye and the other two agreed, while Mingyue returned with a cold face.

Ye Yuan sighed.

For the next three days, Ye Yuan noticed that Mingyue was avoiding him and speaking to him in a very stiff tone.

That day, Ye Yuan cornered Mingyue at her doorstep. "Mingyue, let's talk!"

"What's there to talk about! I understand, Marshal Ye. I shouldn't have led the team to the Zerg battlefield on my own, and I shouldn't have gone to rescue you!"

That's not what I meant!

"Then what do you mean!" Mingyue couldn't hold back any longer. The more she thought about it these past few days, the angrier she became. What a scoundrel!

Ye Yuan pulled Mingyue into the house and closed the door.

He looked at Mingyue and said sincerely, "Mingyue, I know my attitude that day made you very angry, but I was really worried about your safety. You don't know, on the battlefield, when I saw you, my heart almost jumped out of my chest. I didn't want to lose you, so I said those things. I hope you can forgive me."

"Wait, what did you mean when you said you didn't want to lose me?" Mingyue was momentarily stunned. Had she heard something she shouldn't have?

"It's exactly what you mean. I don't want to lose you. I want you to be well. I like you!" Marshal Ye took Mingyue's hand.

Mingyue felt as if she had returned to the day of the ball, otherwise why would Marshal Ye be holding her hand and saying things that made her dizzy?

"Are you serious?" she asked, still half asleep.

"It couldn't be more true, my dear princess, would you be willing to date me with marriage in mind?" Marshal Ye knelt on one knee, holding a box in his hand.
