Chapter 1625: Chapter 191: Before the Decisive Battle_3
The Pope shook his head and said, "There’s no way around it. That evil aura was nurtured over a thousand years, and at the center of the Death Mountain Range, there’s an evil aura coming from the sealed Demon Realm Entrance, which will be hard to eradicate. Here’s what I suggest. Tomorrow, let the soldiers from various places build a temporary base on the outskirts of the Death Mountain Range. We will bring some experts to eliminate all the undead creatures in the first three stages, clearing the obstacles for advancement. Then I’ll think of a way to purify the evil aura within the Death Mountain Range."
Ah Dai nodded and said, "This is the only way. As for the twelve trials of undead creatures, I’m worried about the last five stages; I don’t know what kind of creatures will be there."
The Pope said calmly, "When the cart reaches the mountain, there will be a way; worrying now is useless. Let’s take one step at a time. If we cannot achieve victory even with such a powerful lineup, then it’s heaven’s will to extinguish humanity, and we cannot change it. You and Yue Yue should go rest; tomorrow’s battle, you both are key."
Ah Dai nodded and bid farewell to the Pope before retreating with Xuan Yue. Their tents were adjacent, and after having some food casually, they came to Ah Dai’s tent. Xuan Yue’s lovely face looked somewhat pale as she leaned silently against Ah Dai’s shoulder. Ah Dai gently stroked her soft long hair and whispered, "Yue Yue, what’s wrong? You don’t look well!"
Xuan Yue sighed lightly and said, "When you spoke with Grandpa about the twelve trials of undead creatures just now, I suddenly had an ominous premonition. Grandpa was right; the Church of the Dark Saint in the Death Mountain Range is too quiet. Our army has arrived, and yet they have not reacted at all, as if they disdain our arrival. I am really afraid..."
Ah Dai kissed Xuan Yue’s forehead gently, tightened his grip around her waist with a big hand, and smiled: "Don’t be afraid, we are the saviors! Heaven will not allow humans to perish. We will surely lead the human army to completely defeat the dark forces. We traveled all day, and recently went to the Elf Forest, you must be tired. Let me take you back to rest, okay?"
Xuan Yue shook her head gently, suddenly lifted her head, her beautiful eyes revealing a firm expression, and said, "Ah Dai, I want to give you something, is that alright?"
Ah Dai was stunned, "Give me? What are you going to give me?" Xuan Yue’s face turned red like a ripe apple, lowered her head and mumbled, "I, I want to become your real wife."
Ah Dai’s entire body trembled, he finally understood her meaning, love surged in his heart, he resisted his inner impulse, and said softly, "Yue Yue, what’s wrong with you? Didn’t we agree to wait until we have a status, then...,?" Before he could finish, Xuan Yue suddenly hugged Ah Dai’s neck and choked, "But I’m really scared, of our battle with the Death Mountain Range, I really have a very ominous premonition, as if something might happen to you. Ah Dai, I love you, I don’t want any regrets! Please, will you accept me?"
Ah Dai kissed Xuan Yue’s tender cheek, smiled gently, "Yue Yue dear, don’t think too much, hearing you talk like this, it’s as if we are about to part forever. Come, I’ll take you back to sleep now." He extended his hand to embrace Xuan Yue’s soft body, floated out, and directly returned to Xuan Yue’s tent. He gently lay her on her bed, tenderly covered her with a quilt, and said softly, "Sleep now, I will stay here with you until you fall asleep before I leave." Xuan Yue shook her head: "No need, you should go back now. You’ve been tired all day, rest early, tomorrow there’s important things waiting for you." Xuan Yue seemed to have regained her composure, a faint shimmer of tears flashed in her beautiful eyes.
Ah Dai nodded, "Then I’ll go, rest well." He kissed her forehead and fragrant lips once before turning back to his room. After Xuan Yue’s temptation, his heart was burning hot, it took him half an hour in seated meditation before gradually eliminating the random thoughts and entering a state of cultivation.
After Ah Dai left, Xuan Yue sat up on the bed, the oppressive feeling in her heart had not dissipated, her mind filled with the concerned gaze and honest face of Ah Dai. Xuan Yue murmured to herself, "Ah Dai, you will be alright, no matter when I won’t let anything happen to you." Calming the turbulence in her heart, Xuan Yue seemed to make up her mind, her lovely face softened a lot, she sighed lightly, sat cross-legged, and began to meditate. In these recent days, she clearly felt that her magical progress was slower than before, evidently because she had reached a certain height, making further improvement much more difficult. She gathered her mind, her spiritual power slowly permeated out of her body, quietly absorbing the pure light elements in the air.
Early the next morning, the Allied Army led by the Pope and the leaders of various forces slowly advanced, after about two hours, they finally arrived at the outskirts of the Death Mountain Range.
Looking at the beautiful figure with back wings in front, the Pope smiled slightly, "Hello, Your Highness, Elf Queen."
The Elf Queen had already been waiting here with her clan for a while, watching the grand momentum of the united army behind the Pope, she smiled, "Hello, dear Pope."
The Pope smiled kindly, "In terms of age, you are far older than I am. Last time, when the church sent people to the Tian Yuan Clan, it was thanks to your help; we will always remember the friendship of the Elf Clan."
