Chapter 152: Chapter 35 - The Bishop Comes Pursuing_3
Xuan Yue obediently said, "Then you should start meditating quickly, I’m also going to contemplate for a while." The two sat facing each other and almost simultaneously entered into their world of cultivation and practice.
The next morning, everyone woke up one after the other. Yan Shi, Yan Li, Ah Dai and Xuan Yue all had a feeling of refreshment. It seemed that just in one night, their strength had indeed improved somewhat. Especially Ah Dai, as he had consumed the most energy the previous day. This night of cultivation not only restored his True Qi to its optimal state, but his spiritual power also reached its peak state.
Yan Shi said, "Now that we have rested, we should bid goodbye to the Elves Clan and set off. Brother Moon Scar, I need to ask you for a favor."
Moon Scar was puzzled, ever since Yan Shi had hit Yue Ji that day, he never initiated conversation with them. "Tell me what it is, I’ll try my best to help you."
Yan Shi said, "Since you’re returning to the Red Charming Clan, you will definitely pass through the territory of our Pu Yan Clan. I hope when you pass through my father’s tribe, could you notify them that we are not going to the Death Mountain Range but traveling throughout the continent. Please, just don’t mention we are going to the Empire of Sunset City to find the Elves."
Moon Scar asked, "Actually, given that your Pu Yan Clan is so powerful, you shouldn’t need to be afraid of any nobles, why are you so worried? You even shaved off all your hair."
Yan Shi sighed, "Over thousands of years, our Pu Yan Clan has just regained some vitality, I do not want to cause trouble for the tribe because of me."
Moon Scar nodded and said, "Okay, I will deliver the message. Ah Dai, Miss Xuan Yue, please take care."
They were about to part ways, and Ah Dai inevitably felt a bit reluctant. He stepped forward, took Moon Scar’s hand and said, "Brother Moon Scar, you guys also take care. When there is a chance, we will definitely come to visit you in the Red Charming Clan."
Moon Scar forced a smile. Even though they had only spent a dozen days together, Ah Dai’s kindness had touched everyone’s hearts. If it wasn’t for the current situation being so difficult, he wouldn’t have chosen to leave, "Brother Ah Dai, we will definitely meet again, take care of yourself. I hope when we meet again, we can travel the continent together."
Yue Ji pulled Xuan Yue aside and they started whispering, both their beautiful eyes reddened. They had just established a friendship and were about to part, it was inevitable that they were reluctant.
Yan Shi took a deep breath and said, "Let’s go, depart earlier so we can meet again sooner." After saying that, he was the first to walk out of the tree house. Everyone else followed him out. When they stepped out of the wooden house, they were surprised to find that the Elf Queen and about two dozen Elves were standing outside the tree house, without making a noise. From the energy contained within these Elves, you could tell they were all elites of the Elf Clan.
Ah Dai moved forward and said, "Auntie, why didn’t you come in! Did we oversleep?"
The Elf Queen kindly smiled, "Silly boy, how could you be late? We came to see you off. These are our Elf Clan’s elite warriors, 18 Elf Envoys and 4 great Elf Envoys. Regardless of whether or not your journey is successful, the Elf Clan will always be your friend. If you ever get tired of living in the mainland, we always welcome you to live here."
The Elf Queen’s tenderness deeply moved Ah Dai and he choked up, "Auntie, thank you, you’re so kind."
The Elf Queen said, "Alright, children, I will send two groups of people to escort you out of the Elf Forest. Be careful, don’t force yourself if the task is too difficult, your safety is what’s most important." She took Ah Dai’s hand, "Child, don’t forget the scroll I gave you yesterday. Even if you do not find Xing Er, you can activate it when you’re in danger. Then, I will come and save you." Her maternal care deeply moved Ah Dai’s heart. Ah Dai’s eyes flashed with determination as he said, "Auntie, rest assured, I will bring Princess Xing Er back to you at all costs."
The Elf Queen frowned and said, "Don’t say such things. In my heart, your safety is equally important. Alright, it’s time for you to leave." Behind her, the Elf Envoys came forward with eight bundles, the Elf Queen said, "Take these fruits for the journey. Be careful."
Everyone took the fruits, bade their farewells and under the guidance of two groups of Elves, they each set off towards their respective destinations, leaving the Elf Forest. Watching their retreating figures, the Elf Queen clasped her hands together and in a solemn prayer, she said, "Oh God, please bless these good children, may they be safe on their journey." Odysseus put his arm around the Elf Queen’s shoulder and gently said, "Don’t worry, I believe they will be able to bring our child back."
The Elf Queen nodded, " Starting from today, breaking from tradition, 18 Elf Envoys will divide into two groups, living alternately on top of the Elf ancient tree, always ready to rescue the missing members of the clan."
Except for the two Elf Envoys escorting Ah Dai and Moon Scar and others to leave, the other Elf Envoys simultaneously bowed and said, "Yes, your Majesty the Queen."
Elf Envoy Tianying along with twenty Great Elf Envoys escorted Ah Dai and the other three out of Elf City, heading west. As they walked, he told Yan Shi, "From here, if you keep going west, you will enter the territory of the Alen Clan. If you follow their boundary and keep heading southwest, you will reach the Tian Gang Mountain Range. I’m not sure what lies west after you cross the mountain range."
