Reincarnated as a Mosquito, the School Beauty I Sucked to Tears is a Reborn Empress

Chapter 72: Chapter 72: Arriving in Du Nan, the Landmark Building Turns into a Defense Tower to Attack Outsiders?

「The next morning.」

A military transport plane, its body forged from a special alloy and engraved with intricate array patterns, stood ready on a makeshift runway in Jiang City.

The Provincial Government had dispatched this plane overnight, specifically to escort Gu Yuexi.

Zhang Chengye personally led the escort, which included a full five Seventh-Grade Martial Artists. Such an entourage would be fitting even for a provincial Governor.

With a tremendous roar, the plane shot into the sky and soon vanished into the clouds, heading for Du Nan City several thousand kilometers away.

Inside the cabin.

Gu Yuexi sat quietly by the window. With a thought, she released the Azure Flame Flying Lion cub from her Beast Taming Pouch to let it get some air.

Though only a few days old, the little creature had already grown to over half a meter in length. Its golden fur was growing thicker, and it faintly emitted a scorching aura.

Its Qi Blood had impressively reached the First-Grade Middle Stage!

However, this rapid growth was most pronounced during its youth. The older it got, the slower its progress would become.

For a High-Level Bloodline Demon Beast to reach its peak, it would take at least seven to eight years, and sometimes over a decade.

Of course, with abundant resources for nurturing, this timeframe could be significantly reduced.

’Since I’ve confirmed that I can walk the path of Beast Taming again, I should naturally start raising this little lion cub.’

Gu Yuexi took a piece of flesh from a Second-Grade Demon Beast out of her Storage Pouch and offered it to the cub.

“Eat,” she said calmly.

However, faced with the delicacy Gu Yuexi offered, the little lion merely sniffed it warily before turning its head away, completely ignoring her.

Gu Yuexi: “?”

Just then, the little cub seemed to catch a familiar scent. It snapped its head up and immediately spotted Chu Sheng, who was pretending to be asleep on Gu Yuexi’s shoulder.

“Awoo~! (Mama! Mama!)”

The little cub’s eyes instantly lit up. It scampered over, letting out a fawning whimper as it tried to get the mosquito’s attention.

Chu Sheng stared speechlessly at the idiotic lion that was calling the wrong creature its mother. ’If she tells you to eat, then eat!’ he buzzed impatiently.

“Awoo!”

As if it understood due to their connected bloodlines, the little lion immediately snatched the piece of demon beast meat from Gu Yuexi’s hand and began to devour it.

Gu Yuexi: “…”

’I, the great Beast Taming Empress, can’t even command a single cub? I have to rely on a mosquito to give orders?’

She watched the scene unfold with an expressionless face, her heart a turmoil of mixed feelings.

「A few hours later.」

The plane slowly entered the airspace of Du Nan City.

“Phew… We finally made it.”

Zhang Chengye and the Seventh-Grade Martial Artists all visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

Once they were within Du Nan City’s limits, they were absolutely safe.

The skies above Du Nan City were enveloped by an Emperor-tier Defense Array known as the “Shield of the Celestial Vault,” personally established by the Federation’s most top-notch Array Master!

Forget King-level Powerhouses—not even an Emperor-level Powerhouse in person could hope to breach it easily.

Zhang Chengye walked over to Gu Yuexi, his expression considerably more relaxed. “Gu, now that we’re in Du Nan, you’re pretty much free to do as you please. I’ll arrange accommodations for you.”

“However, I’d still recommend you stay at the school.”

“In this world, besides the Federation’s military bases, the safest places are the top academies. After all, the schools are backed by the Ministry of Education, one of Great Xia’s two major ministries. No one dares to cause trouble there.”

“Furthermore, as one of the top ten high schools in the nation, Du Nan First Middle School’s underground Spirit Gathering Array, Spiritual Qi density, and various Cultivation Resources are all of the highest caliber.”

“Especially when it comes to Spirit Medicine. Du Nan First Middle School has a close partnership with the local pharmaceutical giant, the Xiao Group. Their Spirit Medicine supply is second to none in the entire country.”

Hearing the words “Spirit Medicine,” Chu Sheng instantly perked up.

’Spirit Medicine?’

’Aren’t those just Evolution Points?’

’Go! I have to go! Nobody is going to stop me from going to that school today!’
