The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

Chapter 884: Chapter 862: Interstellar Superstar 32

Fang Xiaolian has always been paying attention to Anning.

She hasn’t missed a single one of Anning’s livestreams.

The more she watched, the more confused Fang Xiaolian became.

She felt Anning might have traveled through time.

Especially when Anning sang ”Farewell My Concubine,” that aura seemed like it belonged to a seasoned Peking Opera star. She sang even better than those stars Fang Xiaolian had seen in modern times. Her portrayal of Yu Ji with such unparalleled grace made even Fang Xiaolian, who didn’t know much about Peking Opera and was a woman, completely mesmerized.

How could someone like Anning not be a time traveler?

But Anning didn’t seem like a time traveler.

Because she knew too much, she’s good at this, understands that, and it’s not merely superficial, every single skill is mastered.

This made Fang Xiaolian unable to understand Anning.

In the end, she could only attribute it to Anning’s exceptional learning ability.

Fang Xiaolian also found the source of the operas Anning sang.

After all, Anning hailed from a noble family, and the Cuis were once a great noble family too, although they had declined significantly in the past century, they had become a middling noble family, yet the Cuis’ foundation was still rich.

Among the Cuis’ businesses were trade and auction houses, and they had once sent people to inspect the Mother Star.

Fang Xiaolian thought the Cuis might have discovered something on the Mother Star and brought it back, Anning must have learned from it.

After all, when the people of the Alliance left the Mother Star, the Mother Star’s technology was already very advanced. Compressing many materials together for preservation was common practice.

Perhaps the Cuis discovered some electronic books and many video materials and brought them back. These materials were not made public, but Anning had seen them.

Thinking of this, it indeed reminded Fang Xiaolian.

She had initially thought of borrowing some modern literary works to earn money and build a name, but now she had to dismiss this idea, she couldn’t go too far. Otherwise, if some noble family actually had entertainment works from that period, she would end up disgraced.

She also dared not borrow those songs anymore.

She decided to proceed with caution.

She decided to be a beautiful chef, writing some original novels to make a living.

It can be said that because of Anning, Fang Xiaolian’s original ambition was greatly subdued.

And on the day Anning finally finished making the Lute, Fang Xiaolian was also watching the livestream.

When she heard ”Ten Sides Ambush,” she was already numb; feelings of surprise, envy, and the like were all gone.

Having listened to ”Ten Sides Ambush,” Fang Xiaolian was about to turn off the main computer, but at that moment, news notifications popped up.

Fang Xiaolian casually clicked to view.

At this casual glance, it truly scared her.

What did she see?

She saw a student, originally normal, lying on the ground holding his head and wailing. Then, a large fleshy worm crawled out from his brain.

The worm grew with the wind, instantly elongating several meters, and the worm looked particularly disgusting.

After it emerged, it started to lay eggs, the eggs parasitized any person they touched.

She also saw a girl’s belly being ripped open, a grotesque worm crawled out from inside, and after emerging, it instantly devoured the girl completely.

She even saw the handsome man’s clothes torn, and long wings grew from his back.

Those wings were not angel wings, not beautiful at all, but fleshy wings, which looked nauseating.

Fang Xiaolian realized these were Humanoid Insects.

And this Humanoid Insect, after growing wings, changed appearance.

If, when disguised, the Humanoid Insect appeared as handsome and charming as an angel, courteous and polite, then once they shed their disguise, they’re even scarier than demons.

In an instant, Fang Xiaolian thought of the legend of the Mermaid.

It’s said that Mermaids are very beautiful, but there’s also a legend that Mermaids are sea demons, cannibalistic, ugly, and disgusting.

All of this made Fang Xiaolian feel her hackles rise, trembling with fear, almost falling off her chair.

Her complexion changed drastically, forcing herself to rush to the bathroom where she vomited until she was exhausted.

It was truly terrifying, too disgusting, utterly unbearable.

So this was the Insect Clan, this was the great threat that almost wiped out humanity.

Fang Xiaolian vomited until she was weak, almost dying in the bathroom.

When she left the bathroom, her face was as pale as a ghost.

She had no interest in reading the news on the main computer anymore, instead dragging herself step by step to her bedroom, collapsing onto the bed without wanting to move.

Her body didn’t move, but within her mind, a storm raged.

She thought of many things.

Fang Xiaolian thought of the modern days when Earth had so many countries, all human, yet they couldn’t peacefully coexist, war, many disputes, resource grabs never disappeared.

She also thought of her birthplace, Huaxia, she studied history, Huaxia was once invaded, back then Huaxia people were seen as a low race, labeled as the sick man of East Asia, that history was extremely humiliating.

Fang Xiaolian considered herself not a fervent youth, but whenever the teacher mentioned that history, she couldn’t help but feel angry and sad.

Those were humans, yet when one group ruled over another, they imposed divisions, mercilessly oppressed, wanting to ensure you could never rise again.

Now the war between the Alliance and the Insect Clan, that’s a war between different species, one is insect, one is human, how could they peacefully coexist, how could there be warmth and compassion?

If one side wins, the defeated side is destined to become food.

At this moment, Fang Xiaolian clearly realized this.

She had once wanted to write about love between a human girl and a Humanoid Insect, but now she dismissed the idea.

It’s simply too disgusting.

How could she have such a thought?

How could this be something she conceived?

Fang Xiaolian thought about Eric.

She frowned, what did Eric mean by suggesting she write that?

What exactly was Eric’s identity?

Anning withdrew from the livestream room, also putting away the Lute.

She sat alone in her room for a long time.

The tune ”Ten Sides Ambush,” not only revealed the Insect Clan’s true form, but also awakened those deceived by them.

Now, many people should be awake, they should realize their past mistakes, maybe it’s still possible to make amends.

And as she just stepped out of the room, she encountered Cui Zhengxun coming towards her.

”Ningning, the military has sent someone.”

Anning’s face looked bad, she had dark circles, her complexion pallid, her lips devoid of color.

Cui Zhengxun quickly supported her.

Anning still felt weak all over, leaning on Cui Zhengxun entirely.

”How did it come to this?”

Cui Zhengxun was extremely worried, and also very distressed: ”Spiritual power giant consumption, can’t you take it slow?”

Anning smiled: ”Dad, in a war of life and death, how could you take it slow.”

Cui Zhengxun couldn’t say anything anymore, he understood the perspective of the big picture.

”What are the military people here for?”

Anning asked.

Cui Zhengxun supported her downstairs: ”They said they’re here to protect you.”

Anning understood, what she had done compelled the military to protect her, in case the Insect Clan attempts to assassinate her one day? Someone like Anning, who can single-handedly expose numerous spies with a single tune, is irreplaceable to the Alliance, and the Alliance would never allow any harm to come to her.
