"Do not chase the poor robbers, immediately reorganize Ice Waterfall City, capture the escapees," Divine Wind ordered. Ice Waterfall City had been destroyed by the Three-winged Blood Jiao in an instant, with the corpses of Elf Warriors strewn about everywhere, a sight that deeply shocked him. Divine Wind, with a solemn expression, watched Hu Jiusheng, who had already vanished. Was it one of Penglai’s Thirteen Main Summoners? Penglai Country could not suppress itself any longer, but since when did Penglai have such a powerfully astonishing Female Summoner, Although he had not officially clashed with Hu Jiusheng, he was certain that if he rashly fought against that woman, he might not necessarily be her match. Moreover, she was a Summoner, possessing the ability to expel Lord Level Demon Beasts. This matter must be reported to the Mother Empress, and the surveillance of that place must be strengthened as well. "Humans," Divine Wind, along with a troop of Elf Royal Court warriors looked down from on high, with disdain at Yuan Bupo and the others standing in the ruins. After this catastrophe, the entire Ice Waterfall City was like it had gone through a violent earthquake, the city was in complete disarray. The majority of the escapees did not manage to flee, the Elf Warriors also suffered heavy losses, and the lucky ones who survived were merely Yuan Bupo, Ye Xia, and Xuan Meimei, among others. "Here is a bottle of Life Water, out of respect for Little Sheng’er, I’m giving it to you. Leave Xianju Country immediately, or else..." Divine Wind anxiously looked at Yun Sheng in his arms, if it were not for being Yun Sheng’s friends, these people who had caused huge losses to Ice Waterfall City, he would not let a single one remain. But now, he must quickly return Yun Sheng to the Elf Royal Court. The magic of the red-robed female Mage from just now was truly powerful. Yun Sheng was seriously injured, and her body had been greatly weakened after being imprisoned in the Ice Prison recently. Only a large amount of Life Water could save her. Divine Wind tossed the bottle of Life Water to Yuan Bupo. Yuan Bupo caught the Life Water, but he did not leave, "Hand over Yun Sheng to me!" Looking at Yun Sheng in his arms, so weak that she seemed as if she would fade away upon a touch, Divine Wind’s heart ached unbearably. "Expel these humans from Xianju," hearing the man’s pained cry, Divine Wind just lifted his eyes and glanced at Yuan Bupo. That was the look of a rival in love, filled with hostility. He held Yun Sheng, tender in a way that caught people’s attention as if the person in his arms would disappear upon contact. "Hand her over to you? Are you capable of protecting her?" Divine Wind said scornfully, as he and his Elf troops promptly left Ice Waterfall City. The words of Divine Wind, falling on Yuan Bupo’s ears, were highly ironic, yet he found himself unable to retort at all. He, indeed, could not save her. Earlier, he could only watch helplessly as Yun Sheng was injured by that Female Summoner, and if it weren’t for Divine Wind’s timely arrival, Yun Sheng might already be dead by now. If he had mastered all of Emperor’s Song, if Little Red and Blue were a Demon Beast a hundred times more powerful than the Flying Flood Dragon, then today, he could have saved Yun Sheng. In young Yuan Bupo’s heart, for the first time surged such a strong desire. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝙣𝙚𝙩 He wanted to become stronger, stronger, because to protect someone, he had to continuously grow stronger, his heart was screaming, he had to be powerful enough to protect Yun Sheng. Even if it was against the Summoning Court, against the Elf Royal Court, he would have the strength to protect Yun Sheng. Guided by the Elf Warriors, Yuan Bupo, along with Xuan Meimei, left Xianju Country. Everyone knows that elves like to live in forests, but few are aware that the Elf Royal Court, where the royal family resides, is actually situated atop a King Tree. Atop the King Tree, there is a palace, with branches and leaves serving its natural roof. The Elf Queen resides here. When the Elf Queen saw Divine Wind rushing back like a whirlwind, she revealed a hint of helplessness. She only had Divine Wind as her offspring. With his naturally capricious character, he was also her sole heir to the throne. Unfortunately, he had always been unwilling to succeed her. Seeing Divine Wind returning with an injured human girl in his arms, the Elf Queen displayed a trace of displeasure. The beauty of the Elf Queen was unparalleled in the world. She had the clearest blue eyes under the heavens, and her golden hair shone brighter than the most dazzling gold. Divine Wind inherited her looks. She had never seen Divine Wind with such an expression before. His eyes, fixed solely on the girl in his arms, couldn’t be moved away. After the rampage of the Three-winged Blood Jiao, the entire Ice Waterfall City had faced a catastrophe. Everywhere were ruins and wreckage; countless great Elf Warriors met their deaths on the spot. All of this, the Elf Queen already knew. She even knew that part of the reason for this calamity was because of the girl in Divine Wind’s embrace. "Divine Wind, you have overstepped. How could you bring a human back here!" the Queen rebuked sharply, not waiting for Divine Wind to speak. As the Elf Prince, Divine Wind had left on his own accord on the Queen’s birthday. If other clans found out about this, it would inevitably lead to censure. "Mother Empress, I implore you to save her," Divine Wind had hurried on his way back frantically, even using Wind Feather to hasten his return without sparing any effort, fearing that each second’s delay could mean Yun Sheng’s demise. The Elf Queen stepped forward and took a look at Yun Sheng. Upon clearly seeing Yun Sheng’s features, the Elf Queen’s expression changed. She then held Yun Sheng’s hand. "I cannot save her." "Why? Mother Empress, although she is human, have you not noticed the mark of the Elf Karmic Fire on her, and that she has obtained the Wind Elf Queen’s Bone Staff?" Divine Wind pleaded with the Mother Empress; he had never been so humble before. To Divine Wind, Yun Sheng was part of the Elf Clan. She wasn’t as filthy as the average humans. At the moment of the Three-winged Blood Jiao’s uprising, she still made every effort to save the elves and half-elves of Ice Waterfall City. She was also a doctor who had saved countless lives. "Don’t you see that she’s not an ordinary person? Her bloodline... bears the lineage of the Bahuang Clan," the Elf Queen sighed. Her foolish son had already fallen for this young girl. Unimaginable, this young girl turned out to be a descendant of that race. At such a young age, she already exuded a charm difficult for ordinary people to resist. Once her bloodline fully awakens, unleashing her beauty that could overturn cities and nations, countless people might spill blood for her. "The Bahuang Clan... the one expelled from the continent? But Mother Empress, she doesn’t resemble the people from the Bahuang Clan at all. She is the person I cherish the most. You once said that one day, a person will come along who makes me want to stop wandering, and I think I have found her," Divine Wind Prince gazed intently at the petite figure in his embrace. He could feel that with the passage of time, the life force within Yun Sheng’s body was slipping away. He could not simply watch Yun Sheng die . The Elf Queen shook her head. "Divine Wind, you may have been headstrong in the past, but this time, Mother Empress absolutely cannot consent to your request." "Mother Empress, what would it take for you to agree to save her?" Divine Wind persisted. He looked down at Yun Sheng and suddenly knelt down, "Mother Empress, I am willing to become the Crown Prince, to help you govern Xianju, I only beg... beg you to save her life."
