After greeting each other, Queen Liv's eyes fell on Chen Rui.
Chen Rui smiled: "As you can see, Your Majesty Liv, this is just more convenient."
Queen Liv nodded and said: "Your Majesty, please follow me."
Chen Rui knew that Queen Liv must want to ask about the Tree of Nature, so he rolled his eyes: "Your Majesty Liv, may I ask where Madam Qi Lanya is?"
"Madam Qi Lanya?" Queen Liv was startled, "She is one of the hosts of the New Moon Festival and is at the scene of the ceremony. Does Your Majesty want to ask her to come and discuss with us?"
"No, Your Majesty misunderstood me. It's just that I heard from His Highness Span that he wants to see her."
Qi Lanya was at the top of Melia's blacklist. When Fairy Miss Long heard this name, her pointed elf ears suddenly stood up. Span didn't expect Chen Rui to say this and glared at his son-in-law. Chen Rui simply copied his father-in-law's secret technique of playing dumb and stared blankly at him.
In fact, Span already understood his son-in-law's meaning. There were some things that his son-in-law would bear alone and didn't want him and Melia to get involved. The Elf King's father-in-law thought for a moment and finally nodded.
Queen Liv thought for a moment and didn't force it: "Your Highness Span, please help yourself."
Chen Rui looked at Rolla and signaled Fairy Miss Long to take care of the half-elf when necessary. Rolla nodded slightly. She and Chen Rui were telepathically connected. Sometimes they didn't even need to use telepathy to understand each other's meaning with just a look.
"Well, you can go have a private meeting with this elf beauty. We are going to participate in the New Moon Festival. Be careful and don't cause any trouble. Otherwise, I will report you to Athena and the others, hohohoho … …" Lala pulled Rolla and Alice and walked to the other side.
Half-elf Tylos, who was following behind, broke out in a cold sweat. There was probably only one elf in history who dared to call the Elven Empress "little beauty" and say such strange words to her face. Even the Elven King was not as bold as her!
Chen Rui could only smile bitterly and apologetically say to Queen Liv, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. Please ignore that nonsense. She's used to running amok. She's only been in Ryūzoku for a few days, but she's already turned the world upside down. When she left, almost all the Dragons were beating gongs and drums, rejoicing that the scourge had left. "
Originally, Queen Liv was a little unhappy, but when she heard Chen Rui's words, she asked in surprise, "She is?"
"The future Dragon Emperor of another world." Chen Rui shook his head and mourned for the future of the Dragon Island.
"Another world?" Queen Liv's gaze became a little deeper, "How many of those who came with you and His Highness … are real elves?"
"If Your Majesty is referring to 'real' elves, then there's only His Highness …" Chen Rui chuckled, "I have no intention of offending the elves. It's just that my friend wanted to see the New Moon Festival of the Immortal Capital."
As the two of them chatted, they entered a palace.
Queen Liv waved her hand, and all the attendants and guards retreated out of the hall.
"Your Highness, please take a seat." Queen Liv sat down, "First of all, I would like to thank Your Highness for taking care of the Tree of Nature these past few years."
Chen Rui observed her expression and asked, "Does Your Majesty need me to explain why the Tree of Nature did not return after the deadline?"
"I received the answer from Lady Alusil early in the morning. Although the Prophet did not specifically state the reason, as the Elven Empress, I choose to believe in Lady Alusil's judgment. "
"Even if the fate of the elven race is in the hands of a human?"
"Lord Alusil is the guide of the elves, and the supreme teacher of all elves. With his help, the elves have survived countless terrible crises over the years, and have flourished to this day. " Queen Liv's calm tone revealed unhesitant determination, "Although many elves, including myself, still do not understand the Prophet's intentions, no one has openly raised any objections. Furthermore, Your Highness is not an ordinary human. To be able to escape from the hands of the three supreme angels, Raphael … I am very glad that such a demigod powerhouse is the Hero King of the elves, and not an enemy. "
"It seems that Lady Qi Lanya has already reported to Your Majesty what happened during the conferring ceremony of the Holy Son of the Holy Mountain of Light."
"Please rest assured, Your Highness. Apart from Lady Alusil, Lady Qi Lanya, and myself, no one else knows."
"Rest assured?" Chen Rui shook his head, "It's just a little … Alright, let's not talk about it."
Of course, Queen Liv did not want to expose Chen Rui's relationship with the elves, lest it attract the vengeance of the Holy Mountain of Light. Even with the Prophet of unknown strength, Alusil was no match for the three supreme angels.
However, the Elven Empress did not know that she only knew of Chen Rui's strength from a few years ago. Now, the Hero King's personal strength and the power he had was enough to contend against all three supreme angels. Of course, Chen Rui did not explain too much. After some thought, he released a wisp of the Tree of Nature's aura, "Then, do you need me to return the holy tree to the elves?"
"That's great. I never expected the Tree of Nature's aura to reach such a level in just a few years! As expected of Your Highness, the Hero King. "Queen Liv revealed a look of pleasant surprise before frowning again." It's just that Lady Alucier once told me that now isn't the right time to return the holy tree. Your Highness's visit … "
"I'm here for two matters." Chen Rui went straight to the point and said his intention, "The first thing is that I need 5 rainbow calla lilies and 1 ice ganoderma. Your Majesty, please help me; the second thing is that I want to see Sir Alucier again."
Queen Liv pondered for a moment and answered, "Although the Rainbow Calla Lotuses are rare, they are available in the Silver Moon Immortal Capital's secret vault. I will get someone to choose five of the best ones, but the Ice Zoysia …"
"Is there any difficulty with the Ice Zoysia?"
"The Ice Zoysia has a special barrier and restorative powers. Compared to the Rainbow Calla Lotuses, it is not particularly rare. There were quite a few of them in the Jadeite Forest Sea. However, in the past twenty thousand years, in order to seal the holy tree that had been infected by the power of the Abyss, the Ice Zoysia in the Jadeite Forest Sea had been harvested by the elves. They were used to strengthen the Treants' sealing barrier. Only Lady Alusil's Illusory Forest has one. It is also the only one known in the entire Jadeite Forest Sea. This Ice Zoysia is not simple. It is nearly thirty thousand years old and is Alusil's most precious treasure. However, Lady Alusil has just sealed the Illusory Forest Sea and announced that she will not meet any guests. "
Chen Rui frowned and said, "Not meet any guests? I'm not considered a 'guest'. Could it be that this title of 'Elven King' is just an empty title with no practical value? "
"Your Highness, you have misunderstood. Even Lady Alusil's only disciple and only daughter, Qi Lanya, is not allowed to meet him."
"If I can't meet Alusil, I naturally don't have to follow the request that he asked Finoa to pass on. I will now return the Tree of Nature to the elves. In the future, I will no longer have anything to do with the Jadeite Forest Sea."
To Chen Rui, the Ice Zoysia was a must-have. He also had to meet Alusil to solve the mystery of "that person" and get rid of the hidden danger in his body as soon as possible. However, to threaten the Elven Queen with the return of the Tree of Nature, Chen Rui could not help but feel that it was absurd.
"To all the elves in the Immortal Capital, returning to the protection of the Tree of Nature is the greatest hope, but …" Queen Liv was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know how to describe my current feelings … Actually, Lady Alusil has also instructed that if there are any irresistible factors, those who wish to meet him can attempt to directly enter the Illusory Forest Sea."
"Directly 'enter'? Understood. " Chen Rui narrowed his eyes and said, "Right, I have another question. What is Lady Alusil's level of strength?"
"The Prophet's strength is a secret. I only know that when the Tree of Nature was infected 20,000 years ago, the three supreme angels had wanted to destroy the Tree of Nature to prevent future troubles, but they gave up on the idea after the Prophet stopped them."
The three supreme angels gave up on the idea? Chen Rui secretly pondered for a while, then nodded and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Your Highness is too polite. I will now send someone to open the secret vault to retrieve the Rainbow Calla Lotus. As the secret vault's protection has been completely shut down before the New Moon Festival, it will take some time to reopen it. Your Highness may wish to visit the elves' New Moon Festival first."
Chen Rui shrugged and deliberately said, "Didn't they say that only invited special guests can participate? So I was forced to transform into an elf … "
Queen Liv smiled meaningfully and said, "Although Your Highness is a human, you are also the Hero King of the elves and are respected by all the elves … There is no need for any invitation. Even if your other three companions were brought by His Highness Spann, then … what about the half-elves? Isn't Your Highness exercising the privilege of the Elf King? "
"At that time, perhaps I found a little sense of existence as the so-called 'Hero King' of the elves." Chen Rui took a deep breath and said, "As for helping Tylos, it was only because I suddenly remembered a certain half-elf friend who is no longer here."
Blanche.
If he could do it all over again, Chen Rui would definitely choose to leave the Silver Moon Immortal Capital with her, so that the tragedy that followed would not happen.
Queen Liv, of course, knew who the "half-elf" friend Chen Rui was talking about was. She sighed.
"Another thing that made the 'Hero King' feel of existence happened in Yagda's mage tower forest. I killed Elder Hiro and his half-elf illegitimate son, Rialdo, in front of the elven elder Dulsa. I believe Your Majesty already knows about this."
Chen Rui looked up at the bright sky and said, "Before I did it, I said a few words. I may be weak, poor, low in status, or ugly, but in the face of life, you and I are equal. I am not despicable, and you are not noble. When you think you are noble, in fact, you are the most despicable existence. "
Queen Liv wanted to say something, but when she heard this, she suddenly fell silent.
"Helping the half-elves today, including killing Hiro and Lealdo at that time, I don't think I'm abusing the privilege of the elf's hero king, but I'm fulfilling the obligation that this honor should fulfill." Chen Rui took a deep look at Empress Liv. Without saying anything more, he walked straight out of the hall.
