"I knew a little."
Yun Ming nodded without offering much explanation.
"Didn't you say you were a Blue Star human? Were you lying again? Are you really a human from the so-called Earth civilization?"
Angel Yan raised a brow, her tone full of suspicion.
With the Eye of Insight, she naturally knew that Yun Ming had once told Qiang Wei he came from Earth civilization.
"I made that up on the spot. I was lying, but Angel Sister isn't human either." Yun Ming defended himself, unwilling to dwell on the subject as he returned to the main point. "With Morgana's abilities, going over there would just be serving yourselves up on a platter. Don't give me that 'because evil is powerful, we must face it' nonsense. That isn't bravery—it's stupidity! I know Angel Sisters aren't afraid of death, but can we please not go looking for it?"
"The right thing to do is go back and call for reinforcements first. There's no point in throwing your lives away. That kind of death means nothing."
In the original story, by the time Morgana arrived, the angels had already left.
But because of his interference—
The angels had not left yet.
Yun Ming was worried that these innocent angels would charge in screaming at the top of their lungs.
No matter how weak Morgana was, she was not someone little angels could hope to challenge.
If the angels went to their deaths, he would be in deep trouble.
He was still counting on the angels to take him to other civilizations.
The three angels simply stared straight at Yun Ming without saying a word.
"Is there something wrong with what I said?" Yun Ming frowned.
"Heh."
Angel Yan gave a displeased laugh. "So in your eyes, us angels are just brainless and stupid?"
Wasn't that true? Yun Ming muttered inwardly.
Angels were famously love-struck fools.
And they did not act like beings who had lived for hundreds or thousands of years at all.
Maybe they were simply too powerful to bother with schemes and intrigue.
"That's not what I meant. I was just afraid that you're too kind-hearted, that you can't bear to see others suffer, and that you'll act on impulse and get yourselves killed." Yun Ming had practically exhausted every flattering phrase he knew, putting them on pedestals.
"Heh."
The three angels immediately found it hard to keep straight faces.
Beneath Angel Zhui's sharp brows, her crystalline eyes fixed on Yun Ming as she said, "Didn't you say before that we were indifferent to mortal lives? Now you're praising us so highly."
"You've already said everything there is to say. What else could we possibly add?" Angel Yan lightly rolled her eyes. The alluring gaze flowing from her beautiful eyes seemed to carry a bewitching charm that made one unable to resist looking at her a few more times.
"At first, I truly didn't understand many things. But after spending these days with the three Angel Sisters, I've come to feel that even the most perfect goddesses in all creation could be no better than this." Yun Ming continued sweet-talking them.
"Did you eat honey or something?" Angel Yan asked, both amused and exasperated. She truly could not understand how this guy had suddenly become so good with words.
Yun Ming smiled faintly. "I ate angel honey."
After saying that, he carefully observed their expressions before adding, "Thanks to the Angel Sisters' help these past days, my cultivation has made tremendous progress."
Over the past few days, he had continuously absorbed angel energy, using up Inner Force to nourish his internal organs, meridians, flesh, skin, and bones. This method of cultivation had improved him enormously. It was no exaggeration to say that his physical strength had at least doubled.
Moreover, the angels had used the Eye of Insight to analyze him in real time, telling him the order and pathways for cultivation. It reminded Yun Ming of certain fantasy novels from his previous life, with realms such as skin tempering, bone tempering, and organ tempering.
Angel Yan looked at Yun Ming, a teasing smile curling across her snow-white, delicate, and captivating face. "Little guy, don't tell me you've got some ideas about us?"
The moment she said that, Angel Zhui and Angel Mo Yi could not help laughing as well.
Yun Ming considered it for a second. A high-end hunter often appears in the guise of prey.
So he gave a dry cough, shook his head, and said, "No, no. How would I dare harbor improper thoughts toward the Angel Sisters?"
"Really?" The smile on Angel Yan's face became even brighter.
Her eyes shimmered, as though starlight flickered within them. She teased, "Then do you have your eye on Sister Zhui, or Mo Yi? Or perhaps Sister Yan here?"
Upon hearing that, Yun Ming's gaze unconsciously drifted between the three angels.
Angel Yan was seductive and enchanting, like a blooming peony that intoxicated the heart; Angel Zhui was valiant and heroic, like a female general on the battlefield with an imposing presence; Angel Mo Yi, meanwhile, was petite and adorable, fresh and lovable like the girl next door.
"Oh my, little guy, are you actually making your choice?" Angel Yan noticed Yun Ming's gaze and deliberately called out in a strange, mocking tone.
"Haha..." Angel Zhui and Angel Mo Yi covered their mouths as they laughed, their eyes glinting with amusement.
Yun Ming felt rather awkward too. He rubbed his nose and gave a few dry laughs.
Seeing this, Angel Yan's lips curved into a teasing smile as she continued, "If you like someone, just say it. As you Blue Star People put it: life is short, so why waste time? If you like someone, confess. If they reject you, drug them. At worst, you'll be punished after you succeed. If you don't even have that much courage, how dare you talk about liking someone?"
Yun Ming froze on the spot. What kind of savage nonsense was that?!
Even Angel Zhui and Angel Mo Yi could not stand Angel Yan's words anymore. They both spat lightly in displeasure.
"Alright, alright, no more jokes." Angel Yan innocently spread her hands, then suddenly put away her smile and turned serious. "Let's talk business. It's already over."
Angel Zhui and Angel Mo Yi were stunned for a moment before abruptly realizing what she meant.
"More than three thousand mortals have already been transformed by those devils," Angel Yan said gravely, a trace of heaviness in her voice.
Yun Ming also put away his playful attitude and began thinking seriously.
He guessed Angel Yan had deliberately joked with him earlier, perhaps to stall for time.
Angel Zhui's expression darkened as she clenched her fists and cursed, "Those devils are absolutely despicable!"
"Sister Yan, we need to hurry and eliminate those devils!" Angel Mo Yi said coldly. "If we don't stop them soon, this planet will probably fall into the devils' hands before long."
Yet Yun Ming shook his head. "It won't. Morgana's daughter is still on Blue Star. She would never allow her mother to do something like this. Besides, dealing with those devils is not something the few of us can handle. We should go back and call for help first."
The angels looked at him.
"Are you referring to Qiang Wei?" Angel Yan slightly raised her slender, willow-leaf brows, memories of the things said about Qiang Wei surfacing in her mind.
"That's right, Qiang Wei." Yun Ming hesitated briefly before continuing, "The Space-Time Gene she carries is the result of Morgana's countless efforts. She is Morgana's beloved."
He paused, seemingly finding the next words difficult to say, but he said them anyway. "You may find this hard to believe, but there is actually an indescribable sign of matrimonial fate between them."
"Huh?"
The angels were instantly dumbfounded by Yun Ming's words. They exchanged looks as though they were saying, Are you joking?
Both Morgana and Qiang Wei were women. How could there possibly be a sign of matrimonial fate between them? This was simply beyond the scope of normal understanding.
"I'm telling the truth." Seeing that the angels did not believe him, Yun Ming hurriedly explained, "Not long ago, I accurately predicted that Morgana would come to Blue Star. Do you still doubt my abilities?"
The angels were left speechless. Though they still had doubts, they could not directly question him again.
"Even if what you say is true, devils are best at brainwashing people." Angel Mo Yi frowned. "Perhaps Qiang Wei will no longer be the same Qiang Wei in the future."
Yun Ming understood her concerns and said, "In a sense, Qiang Wei can be considered Morgana's daughter. As a parent, how could she forcibly twist her own daughter's personality and will?"
"Why does this relationship sound so complicated?" A strange light flickered in Angel Yan's eyes as she looked at Yun Ming. "She's both a daughter and someone bound by matrimonial fate. It's truly confusing."
Yun Ming thought for a moment, then smiled. "They're devils. They can do anything. It's only normal for their relationship to be more complicated and their games more unconventional, isn't it?"
Once again, the three angels were rendered speechless.
