Ling Chen opened his eyes and looked down, calmly watching Shui Ruo's body touch the surface of the water. Shui Ruo's body slowly sank into the center of the ripples, all the way to the bottom of the spring, and quietly lay there. She looked incredibly peaceful as she slept, as if she was a Princess of the Sea, waiting for her Prince to wake her up.
Moon Shadow's effects disappeared, and the frozen Elemental Arrows also disappeared. The ten Elders regained their freedom, and they quickly gathered together. They were still in shock as they angrily glared at Ling Chen, their expressions incredibly dark. Although they had been frozen, their vision and hearing hadn't been sealed. This human had placed another human into the Fairy Fountain, a sacred place that couldn't be tainted by outsiders.
Everything had already happened, and there was no turning back. Ever since the Fairy Fountain had existed, it was the first time that someone other than the Fairy Clan had touched it. What's more, his entire body had sunk into the Fairy Fountain. The Fairies were completely enraged. As a kind and peaceful race, they rarely got angry. However, Ling Chen's actions had completely trampled on their bottom line, as well as their beliefs.
"Ling Tian … you … you …" Greenwood's face sank, and his eyes burned with unprecedented fury. His fists were clenched so tightly that blood almost seeped out from between his fingers. What he was most afraid of, and what the Fairy Clan was most afraid of, was happening right in front of him. When he heard the sound of the Fairy Fountain's water touching the water, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His mind spun, and his boundless rage threatened to explode his chest. He pointed at Ling Chen, so furious that he couldn't even speak. He wanted to give the order to kill this human at all costs, but even if he was killed, it wouldn't change the fact that an outsider had touched the Fairy Fountain. Even if he was killed tens of thousands of times, it wouldn't change anything, and it wouldn't be able to vent his and all of the Fairies' anger.
"Ling Tian, did you really think that you would get what you wanted? Do you know … what you've done! " Greenwood's body trembled with rage. As the leader of the Fairy Clan, he didn't want to fight, and he didn't want to kill. However, facing Ling Chen, his heart was filled with killing intent.
"I know what I'm doing. However, I will compensate your Elf Clan accordingly," Ling Chen said confidently.
"Compensation?" Greenwood coldly laughed, "The Fairy Fountain is the lifeblood of our Fairy Clan. Once the Fairy Fountain is polluted, the Fairy Clan will fall and perish! This is the highest ancestral teaching of our race that has never been forgotten! And you … and you … "
Ling Chen glanced at the elves. These elves were all angry, and there was even an ominous glint in their eyes that shouldn't belong to them. As long as Greenwood gave the order, they would do anything to kill him. He continued calmly, "Whether you rise or fall, is it really something that can be decided by a mere pond of water? Before today, the Fairy Fountain has never been touched by an outsider, but your Fairy Clan has continued to decline. With your reproductive abilities, as well as the fact that this world is completely sealed off, even if the Fairy Fountain was ten times larger or a hundred times purer … the number of Fairies in your Fairy Clan will only continue to decrease. In just a few years, your Fairy Clan will completely decline … or even perish! Don't you know all of this better than I do?! "
Greenwood's eyebrows furrowed, but he couldn't refute this. The Fairies were also filled with worry because of these words. They were well aware of the current situation of the Elven Clan. They were well aware of this, but no one was willing to talk about it. Ling Chen's words had torn open a scar that they didn't want to touch, and their expressions darkened.
"I won't deny what you said. However, our Fairy Clan was born from Nature, and we are protected by Nature. I believe that our clan will not go extinct one day. There's no need for a human like you to worry about our current situation. " Greenwood's tone became impolite. If it wasn't for the fact that he was suppressing his anger, he would have already rushed up and destroyed Ling Chen, "However, it is a fact that you have violated our Fairy Clan's greatest taboo … no matter who you are, this matter cannot be forgiven. The person you put in the water … must immediately disappear! "
After yelling, Greenwood rushed forwards, with the ten elders following behind him. How could they allow a human to sleep in the Fairy Fountain?
"You … dare!"
In their ears, Ling Chen's calm voice suddenly became dark and gloomy. Greenwood and the ten elders simultaneously stopped walking, and their bodies froze. This was because they felt an extremely cold aura suddenly envelop their bodies, causing them to feel as if they had fallen into an icy purgatory. Their bodies were ice-cold from head to toe … Killing intent! A killing intent that caused their hairs to stand on end. They raised their heads and looked at Ling Chen, who was still standing there. At this moment, Ling Chen's gaze had completely changed. His eyes were like the eyes of a dead fish, not moving at all, as if they couldn't move at all. Under the gaze of those eyes, the Fairies, who were at least at the Heaven's End level, couldn't help but tremble.
They had lived in the Fairy Realm ever since they were born. There were no natural enemies here, and there were no battles. Killing intent was something that they had no chance of coming into contact with. At this moment, this gloomy feeling that made their hearts spasm and chills run down their spines made them clearly understand what true murderous intent was. This murderous intent was so strong and enormous that it had completely exceeded the scope of their imagination!
And the person releasing this killing intent was a LV20 human. They couldn't imagine that such a weak human could actually make them tremble as if there was a blade on their necks.
"Hmph!" Greenwood coldly harrumphed, dispelling the effects of Ling Chen's killing intent. However, he was still deeply shocked. He didn't back down as he stared into Ling Chen's eyes and said in a low voice, "Do you really think that you can stop us? No matter how strong your aura is, in our eyes, you can't even withstand a single blow. "
"Indeed, I can't stop you." Ling Chen's body and eyes did not move at all, and only his lips moved. A death-like killing intent filled the space around him, causing the air to become chaotic, "However, if you dare to touch my little sister, if my little sister loses her last hope because of you … I'll turn the Fairy Fountain that you've been protecting into the world's dirtiest quagmire! You can kill me, but in this world, I can revive infinitely. Your Bewildering Formation is useless against me, and I can come and go as I please. Today, I can put a person into the Fairy Fountain. Next time, I can put something else in, and next time, I can still do it! If you kill me a hundred times, I'll revive a hundred times and pollute your Fairy Fountain a hundred times … you can touch my little sister and see if I dare to!! "
"You!" Greenwood pointed at Ling Chen, his face ashen, but he didn't dare to move forwards.
They had all seen Ling Chen's terrifying speed and strange abilities. Today, he had brought a person to the Fairy Fountain under the protection of the ten elders and a large number of powerful Fairies. Even though he was unwilling, he couldn't deny that he had that kind of speed and ability. If he did it again, they wouldn't be able to stop him either. Moreover, Ling Tian was a player, and could revive infinitely, which meant that he could endlessly harass them …
Thinking to there, Greenwood gritted his teeth and frowned. However, no matter what, how could he, as well as the entire Fairy Clan, be intimidated by a human who had broken their taboo?
"Alright, stop arguing. Now that things have come to this, there's no point in arguing anymore. Let's all calm down. "
An ancient voice sounded out. Hearing this voice, the Fairies' anger greatly dissipated, and a look of respect appeared on their faces. Even Greenwood's expression softened, and he suppressed his anger as he turned to look at Granny Witherwood, who was standing behind him with her walking stick.
"Mother, we're useless. We weren't able to stop this human, and the Fairy Fountain's water has been polluted … we'll let mother decide what to do," Greenwood said as he sighed. The Fairy Realm had been peaceful for countless years, and this was the biggest thing that had happened to the Fairy Realm in a long time. Even though he was furious, he didn't know what to do.
"What's done is done, so let's just let it go. Everyone can disperse, "Granny Witherwood said. Her words caused all of the Fairies to stare in shock. Even Ling Chen, who had been prepared for the worst, was stunned.
"Let it go? How could I let it go? For his own selfish reasons, he's polluted the entire Fairy Fountain. This is an unforgivable mistake! The Fairy Fountain is the lifeline of our entire clan! "Greenwood yelled, unable to accept this. Granny Witherwood's prestige in the Fairy Realm far surpassed that of the Fairy Clan's Chief. As the Chief, he would always listen to whatever she said. However, Granny Witherwood's' let it go 'was something that he couldn't understand.
Granny Witherwood raised her head up slightly, her old eyes slightly turbid, but still as calm as an ancient well, "For the sake of his kin, Ling Tian did not hesitate to go against my entire family with his weak strength. While his actions were extreme and he almost made a huge mistake, his pure heart is worthy of respect and admiration. Moreover, there's no need for you to panic – the Fairy Fountain's water hasn't been polluted. Could it be that you didn't sense any sort of warm aura from that girl? "
"It hasn't been polluted? Mother, what do you mean? "Greenwood stared in shock. They had all watched as Ling Chen put a human girl into the Fairy Fountain. In their fury, how could they have the heart to investigate the girl's aura?
Granny Witherwood didn't say anything. She straightened her body and waved her walking stick. Instantly, a jade-green light descended from the sky, covering all of the Fairies and Ling Chen. After the light flashed, Ling Chen found that he, Greenwood, and the others had been moved to the edge of the Fairy Fountain. In front of him, the vines that had covered the Fairy Fountain quickly withered and disappeared.
The Fairy Fountain's water was simply too clear, to the point that it didn't seem to exist. Everyone could see every corner of the Fairy Fountain. At the center of the Fairy Fountain lay a human girl. Even the Elves, who had the highest sense of beauty and had the most perfect looks, couldn't help but sigh in admiration at the girl's exquisiteness … That's right, exquisiteness. Even the pickiest person in the world couldn't find a single flaw on her face. She was far too quiet, and there were no signs of life on her body at all. However, all the elves silently felt a desire to get close to her and protect her. When they saw her being so quiet, they couldn't help but feel pain in their hearts … It was a pain that felt like needles were stabbing into them.
Around her body, there was a circle of pure white light with a hint of light green.
"That … That's …" Seeing the circle of light and the faint aura, Greenwood and the ten elders' expressions changed as they cried out in shock. Ling Chen was also stunned … what was going on? Why was there a layer of light around Ruo Ruo's body?
