Chapter 698: Chapter 191: Before the Final Battle_3
The Pope shook his head and said, "We have no other choice. These evil auras have been bred over a thousand years, and there are malicious airs coming from the sealed entrance of the Demon Realm in the center of the Death Mountain Range. I fear it may be tough to eradicate them. This is what I suggest. Tomorrow, let the soldiers from various places build a temporary base at the outskirts of the Death Mountain Range. We will take some experts to eliminate all the Undead Creatures in the first three levels, clearing the obstacles for us to advance. After that, I will think of a way to dissolve the evil aura within the Death Mountain Range."
Ah Dai nodded and said, "That’s all we can do for now. What I am concerned about are the last five levels of the twelve calamities of the undead, I don’t know what kind of creatures are there."
The pope calmly said, "There will always be a way when we reach the mountain, worrying now will not help, we have to take it one step at a time. If even with our powerful lineup we can’t achieve the final victory, then it must be the will of heaven to wipe out mankind, and it’s not something we can change. You and Yue Yue should rest. Tomorrow’s battle depends on you."
Ah Dai nodded, bid farewell to the Pope, and then retreated with Xuan Yue. Their tents were side by side. After having a bite to eat, they went to Ah Dai’s tent. Xuan Yue looked a little pale and leaned silently against Ah Dai’s shoulder. Ah Dai stroked her soft long hair and said softly, "Yue Yue, what’s wrong? You look a little pale!"
Xuan Yue sighed lightly and said, "I suddenly had an ominous premonition when you and Grandpa were talking about the twelve calamities of the undead. Grandpa is right, the Church of the Dark Saint in the Death Mountain Range is too quiet. Even when our army arrived here, they did not show any response, as if they disdain our arrival. I’m so scared..."
Ah Dai kissed her forehead lightly, tightened his arm around her waist, and smiled, "Don’t be afraid, we are the saviors! Heaven will not let mankind perish. We will surely lead the human army to completely wipe out the Dark Forces. You must be tired after rushing all day and visiting the Elf Forest. Shall I take you back to rest?"
Xuan Yue shook her head gently, suddenly lifted her head, and with determination in her beautiful eyes, she said, "Ah Dai, I want to give myself to you, is that okay?"
Ah Dai was taken aback, "Give me? What do you want to give me?" Xuan Yue’s face turned red, like a ripe apple, she lowered her head and muttered: "I, I want to be your real wife."
Ah Dai shivered all over, realizing what she meant, love surged in his heart. He suppressed his inner impulses and said softly, "Yue Yue, why suddenly? Didn’t we agree to wait until we are married to..." Before he could finish, Xuan Yue abruptly hugged Ah Dai’s neck and sobbed, "But, I, I am really scared. I have a very bad feeling about our fight with the Death Mountain Range, as if something will happen to you. Ah Dai, I love you, I don’t want to have any regrets! Can you...?"
Ah Dai gently kissed Xuan Yue’s tender cheek and smiled, "Be good Yue Yue, don’t think too much. Look at what you’re saying, it’s as if we are going to part forever. Come, let me take you back to sleep." He took Xuan Yue in his arms, floated up, and went straight back to her tent. He gently put her on his bed, pulled the blanket over her carefully, and whispered, "Go to sleep, I’ll keep you company until you fall asleep." Xuan Yue shook her head and said, "No need, you can go now. You’ve been tired all day too, rest early, you have important things to do tomorrow." Xuan Yue seemed to have regained her composure, a faint tear shone in her beautiful eyes.
Ah Dai nodded and said, "Alright, I’m leaving then, you rest well." He kissed her forehead and lips, and then returned to his room. His heart was still hot after Xuan Yue’s teasing, he meditated for half an hour to calm himself down and entered the state of cultivation.
After Ah Dai left, Xuan Yue sat up on the bed. The oppression in her heart did not disappear, her mind was full of Ah Dai’s concerned gaze and innocent face. Xuan Yue muttered to herself: "Ah Dai, nothing will happen to you, I will never let anything happen to you no matter what." Calming her inner turmoil, Xuan Yue seemed to have made a decision, her face softened a lot, she sighed lightly, crossed her legs, and began to meditate. Recently, she had clearly felt that the progress of her magic cultivation had slowed down a lot, obviously because she had reached a certain level. It’s much harder to improve further. Gathering her spirit, her spiritual power slowly radiated out, quietly absorbing the pure light elements in the air.
Early the next morning, the united army, led by the Pope and the leaders of the various factions, slowly moved forward. After about two hours, they finally arrived at the outskirts of the Death Mountain Range.
Looking at the beautiful figure in front of him with large wings, the Pope smiled and said, "Hello, Your Highness, the Queen of the Elves."
The Elf Queen had already been waiting here with her people for some time. Looking at the mighty army behind the Pope, she smiled and said, "Hello, your Holiness."
The Pope smiled kindly and said, "Speaking of age, you are much older than me. The last time the Holy See sent people to the Tian Yuan Clan, we are very grateful for your help. We will always remember the friendship of the Elf Clan."
