Chapter 1389: Chapter 140 Xuan Yue Seals the Heart_2
Yue Ji’s armor-piercing arrow was already on the Silver Bow, and with a tone of resentment she said, "I didn’t expect the Holy Church to harbor such despicable people. Go to hell." The armor-piercing arrow, imbued with silver fighting spirit, shot out like lightning, heading straight for Ballon’s chest. At this moment, Ballon was completely suppressed by the brothers Yan Shi, and with Yue Ji’s archery skills comparable to the Elves, how could he dodge it? Just as Ballon was at the brink of life and death, a dark shadow suddenly flashed by. The armor-piercing arrow shot by Yue Ji shattered inch by inch, and the brothers Yan Shi were also shaken back. The person who made the move was none other than Ballon, the Deputy Judge of the Holy Church.
Ballon held back his son who still wanted to rush forward, sighed, and said, "Everyone, I’m sorry, this is my son’s fault, I apologize to you on his behalf."
Olivia coldly said, "What’s the use of an apology? The mistake has been made. I’m telling you, Ah Dai is an elder of our Guild, and if anything happens to him, the continental Mage Guild will not let it go easily with the Church." Kino angrily said, "That’s right, Ah Dai is also an honorary elder of our Tian Jing Mage Guild, and my teacher Larthas won’t let go of those who harmed him. Although the Church is strong, it shouldn’t bully people like this. How can such a despicable person be a faithful believer of Sky God? With such a scum produced by the Church, we must fight to the end for Ah Dai." Green and red magical lights blazed from Olivia and Kino respectively, their enormous magical energy even surprised Xuan Ye.
Yue Ji once again loaded a long arrow, and with resentment said, "And us from the Moon Scar Mercenary Corps." The brothers Yan Shi raised the weapons in their hands and shouted in unison, "And us, the Pu Yan Clan."
Ballon’s brow furrowed; he was extremely disappointed with Ballon’s actions. Although he encouraged his son to pursue his true love, it was meant for him to properly pursue Xuan Yue, not to drive away Ah Dai through such despicable means. At this time, the Church was facing threats from the Dark Forces, and having offended forces from all sides was really disadvantageous for the Church. He had never expected that Ah Dai would be an elder of two Mage Guilds, and that all these friends had such strong strengths. For a moment, he didn’t know what to do.
Xuan Ye floated over to Ballon’s side, and although he was also dissatisfied with Ballon’s actions, given his relationship with Ballon, he naturally wanted to protect Ballon. He spoke sternly to Yan Shi and others, "You need to think carefully. Although you represent the strength of four parties, opposing the Church is not a wise choice. Moreover, even though your four parties have great strength, it’s still not enough to compete with us. I regret what happened to Ah Dai, but opposing us doesn’t make any sense."
The Elf Queen flew over and landed in front of Yan Shi, let out a light sigh, and said, "What if you add our Elf Clan?"
Xuan Ye was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
The Elf Queen’s eyes flashed a glint of coldness, she said mildly, "Bishop Xuan Ye, the Church must give us an explanation for this matter. Indeed, the Church’s power is vast. But for Ah Dai’s sake, I can solemnly tell you on behalf of the Elf Clan that we are willing to oppose the Church. You might not be fully aware of Ah Dai’s relationship with our Elf Clan. I can now explain it to you. Initially, several of our clan members were captured by the thieves’ Guild and sold to the Dark Forces of Sunset City. Our Elves, being too conspicuous, could not leave easily to rescue them. Among these captured clan members was my daughter Xing Er. The Bloodline of the Elf King is passed down singularly, and if we couldn’t rescue Xing Er, our Elf Clan would be in danger of extinction. During such a crisis, it was Ah Dai and the brothers Yan Shi who stepped forward. They spent over two years, enduring great hardships, and finally rescued my daughter. They are great benefactors of our Elf Clan. While I respect the Church and you, if something happens to Ah Dai, our Elf Clan will not sit idly by."
Listening to the Elf Queen’s words, Xuan Ye fell silent; the Elf Clan saved their lives this time, how could he turn against the Elf Clan now? Looking back at a stunned Ballon, he could only sigh, not knowing how to respond in this situation. Just then, Xuan Yue stepped out from between Ballon and Xuan Ye, her expression calm, and spoke softly to the Elf Queen, "Auntie Queen, this matter started because of me. If you need to blame someone, blame me. Now the continent is faced with the threat of Dark Forces, I hope you can prioritize the bigger picture for the survival and reproduction of all races on the continent, and not make any rash decisions."
Before the Elf Queen could speak, Yan Li flashed out and angrily said, "Yue Yue, that bastard drove Ah Dai away, aren’t you angry?"
Xuan Yue’s eyes showed a hint of sorrow, and she said, "I am more in pain than any of you, but you should remember the words of Prophet Pu Lin, Ah Dai and I are the Saviors of the continent, we have many things to do. We can’t let our personal feelings cause you to oppose the Church, only if we all unite can we collectively withstand the crisis brought by the Dark Forces."
