"Your Majesty, I hope you won't go back on your word."
Qin Yichen nodded politely at the Elven Queen and said softly.
"Since I promised to give her a chance, I won't go back on my word."
The Elven Queen nodded and said, "However, there is only one chance regardless of whether it succeeds or not."
To the Elven Queen's surprise, Qin Yichen nodded with a smile and did not say anything else.
From the looks of it, he seemed to have absolute confidence in his success.
Looking at this scene, the Elven Queen could not help but look at Little Ling 'er.
The reason why she had agreed to Qin Yichen's request so readily was because she was not worried that Little Ling 'er would be able to learn the Treasured Book of Life.
After all, among the thousands of races, there were countless powerful beings who had coveted the Treasured Book of Life. Even … the Emperors had done the same.
However, even the Emperors could only leave quietly after taking a look at the Treasured Book of Life once they had offered it to them.
The Treasured Book of Life could only be cultivated by the Royal Elves who were nurtured by the Tree of Life!
Apart from that, even high-ranking Elves could not cultivate it, let alone people from other races!
In the Elven Queen's impression, the human race was a race that would never allow themselves to be taken advantage of. When it came to scheming, the simple-minded Elves were left in the dust.
Seeing Qin Yichen's attitude, the Elven Queen could not help but wonder if she had fallen into a trap.
Would the human race be so kind as to suffer in silence for something that was completely impossible?
"What a clever girl!"
The Elven Queen's eyes flashed with amazement the moment she saw Little Ling 'er.
The little girl in front of her looked young, but there was a spirituality in her eyes that many high-ranking Elves could not compare to.
"Your Majesty!"
Just as the Elven Queen was about to take a closer look, a hurried voice suddenly sounded from the palace passage deep within the great hall.
"Come in!"
The Elven Queen frowned and said softly.
Hearing this, a figure flashed through the passage. This Elf had a head of silver hair and was obviously a royal Elf.
When he saw the messy scene in the hall, the royal elf's eyes were filled with horror.
If it wasn't for the Elven Queen standing in the middle of the hall and the noble elders busying themselves around her, this Elf would have lost her composure and slapped herself in the face to see if she was dreaming.
"What is it?"
Seeing this royal elf, the Elven Queen frowned slightly and asked in a low voice.
At this moment, the surrounding elders had finally distributed the medicinal pills that Qin Yichen had given to them. Immediately, numerous gazes turned towards them as a sense of unease slowly rose in their hearts.
"Your Majesty, Elder Fei … has entered the Ancestral Tree with the Scepter of Life …"
Upon hearing the Elven Queen's question, the Elf finally regained his senses. He did not even bother to take deep breaths as he hurriedly replied.
"He entered the Ancestral Tree?!"
Hearing this, the Elven Queen frowned.
"That's right. He's holding the Scepter of Life, and none of our clansmen dared to stop him. I was curious, so I came to ask …"
The royal elf's voice was weak as he spoke.
Originally, the Tree of Life was guarded by the royal elves. Apart from the coming of age ceremony of the royal elves, no other elves were allowed to approach it. However, Fei Reqing was holding the Scepter of Life, which symbolized the Elven King. Even the royal elves did not dare to disobey the wishes of the owner of the Scepter of Life.
"Fei Reqing colluded with the Blood Demon Tribe and entered the Ancestral Tree recklessly. Your Majesty, you must stop him and sacrifice him to the Ancestral Tree!"
In the hall, the elders knelt on the ground and spoke to the Elven Queen.
In response, the Elven Queen's expression gradually turned cold.
Although she had been poisoned by the Bloodthirsty Poison, she could still suppress it with her cultivation. However, due to her concerns, she could only compromise with Fei Reqing's threats.
Now that the Bloodthirsty Poison had been removed, it was time to eliminate the traitors in the Elf Tribe!
"Your Majesty, Her Highness is still in the Ancestral Tree …"
Hearing the elders' words, the royal elf's expression changed abruptly. Then, he suddenly recalled something and hurriedly spoke.
"Oh no!"
Hearing this, the Elven Queen's expression changed. She moved and disappeared from the hall in a flash of light.
"Sigh, Your Majesty, you haven't fulfilled your promise!"
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, Qin Yichen suddenly opened his mouth and let out a loud cry, his figure flashed, and he rushed into the depths of the palace with Ling 'er in his arms.
"Hey, who dares to be so presumptuous …"
Seeing that an outsider dared to barge into the Elf Tribe's palace, the royal elf who came to report immediately yelled.
However, just as he was about to use his means to stop them, he was surprised to find that none of the elves in the hall had any intention of stopping them. In fact, there were even two elves from the royal family who were close to him who were secretly giving him a look, hinting that he should mind his own business.
"What exactly is going on?"
After muttering to himself for a while, Qin Yichen's figure disappeared from his sight. Seeing this, the royal elf could not help but hold his forehead. He felt as though his head had swollen.
…
The Tree of Life.
It was said that it was a magical ancient tree that had existed since the beginning of the world. It was the source of all life and contained an endless amount of energy, thus improving the environment of the world.
There were even rumors that the existence of True Yuan in this world was related to the Tree of Life.
The Tree of Life stood tall in the Elf Forest like a boundless mountain. It was so wide that it was difficult to see it with the naked eye.
"Whoosh!"
On one of the branches of the Tree of Life that was surrounded by clouds and mist, the branches and leaves swayed as they glowed with vitality and emitted a faint green light.
In the green light, a young girl in a long green dress with her hair fluttering in the wind was sitting quietly. She looked like she was filled with spiritual energy from head to toe.
This young girl was Avril!
Avril was the youngest royal elf in the Elf Tribe. More importantly, she had the purest royal bloodline in the past few thousand years!
Even the Elven Queen could not compare to her.
Therefore, when Avril was born, she was given the title of princess. When she grew up, she would become the Elf Tribe's Queen!
Today, it was finally time for Avril's coming-of-age ceremony.
Perhaps because of the attack outside, the Elven Queen did not allow Avril to participate in the coming-of-age ceremony. Instead, she sent her directly to the Tree of Life to receive the baptism of the coming-of-age ceremony.
Avril didn't have any dissatisfaction with this, but she was full of guilt towards Qin Yichen, who had saved her, but she didn't go to see him.
As the green light slowly enveloped her, Avril looked apologetically in a certain direction and slowly closed her eyes.
As the green light enveloped her, Avril's figure gradually merged into the Tree of Life.
