Baby, who had been curiously looking around since arriving and showing no interest in Ye Chui and Kuba’s conversation, suddenly grew excited upon hearing this. She put her hands on her hips and declared, “You really have to obey my commands? Then you need to practise dancing properly. The dance you did just now was simply awful. It was embarrassing. I will teach you again from the beginning.”
“Your Majesty, we will certainly study dancing diligently!” Kuba declared fervently at once.
“Stop, stop…” Ye Chui quickly waved his hand to halt them. These elves had lived for tens of thousands of years, yet their fanaticism toward their queen was truly terrifyingly stubborn. He picked Baby up and said to Kuba, “I came to the Continent of Divine Sin hoping to leave from here, so we need to increase our strength now. If you do not mind, join our Stan World.”
When saying this, Ye Chui had been somewhat worried, fearing the Green Forest World might refuse, but Kuba’s response was so straightforward it made Ye Chui feel ashamed.
“Of course. I will report to the Elf King upon returning and submit to your world. As long as we can serve Her Majesty, we will do anything.” Kuba replied.
“Er… very well.” Ye Chui nodded, then asked, “Who is the Elf King you mentioned? Is he also a royal elf?”
“No, there is only one royal elf, Her Majesty the Queen. The Elf King is merely a high elf like me. We crowned him ourselves.” Kuba explained, his tone carrying some displeasure. His relationship with the Elf King seemed strained. He was eager to return to the Green Forest World to negotiate with the Elf King and prepared to set off immediately.
He called in an elf maiden from outside and said to Ye Chui, “You may entrust the fruit to us. From now on, the Green Forest House belongs to Her Majesty. You can discuss further matters with her.”
Hearing this, Ye Chui felt inwardly delighted. The Green Forest World, a king-level world with only about a hundred members, likely possessed the richest resources in the lower underworld. With their support, the issue of magic scrolls would no longer be a problem, and producing his Orc army would become twice as effective with half the effort.
Then Ye Chui looked at the elf maiden. She had pale green long hair, slender pointed ears, and the exquisite, gorgeous beauty characteristic of elves. She appeared noble and lovely, seeming only about sixteen or seventeen years old. So Ye Chui instinctively said, “Mr Kuba, is this your daughter?”
“Oh, no. She is my mother, Biqiya.” Kuba introduced.
Ye Chui: “…”
The blood relations of long-lived species were truly confusing…
Kuba looked far older than Biqiya, yet he turned out to be this maiden’s son.
“Kuba suffered severe injuries once, affecting his eternal bloodline, so he appears somewhat aged.” Biqiya seemed to notice Ye Chui’s confusion and explained. She looked at Baby with excitement and said respectfully, “Your Majesty, Biqiya is willing to serve you.” Then she turned to Ye Chui. “Father of Her Majesty, I am also willing to serve you.”
Ye Chui’s brow twitched: Father of Her Majesty? What sort of title was that!?
“No time to delay.” Kuba had already reached the door. “I will go discuss with the Elf King at once!”
…
The Green Forest World lived up to its name. It was a dense green forest, with various naturally growing plants in the gaps between trees, many of which could serve as food, such as barley and mushrooms. The elves’ sustenance came from the forest’s gifts, but unlike humans, they did not actively cultivate them. They allowed everything to grow freely, following nature.
Countless animals also lived among the trees. The elves never harmed them, letting them dwell in this paradise. It was a green world that had seen almost no bloodshed since the elves settled here.
Yet at this moment, a visitor from the Blood Land World was arriving.
Blood Land and Green Forest were like two extremes.
In the enormous treehouse palace at the centre of the Green Forest World, Satan’er from Blood Land stood respectfully before the Elf King, calmly and coldly relating certain matters.
The Elf King was a male elf utterly unlike the others.
He was a towering elf reaching two metres in height, yet corpulent and obese, weighing at least four or five hundred jin. His skin was pale, and the fat on his body seemed ready to burst his clothes. He sat on an enormous chair, appearing barely able to move.
For elves born with natural beauty and slimness, growing to this state was probably a talent of another kind…
As he listened to Satan’er’s account, he continually grabbed pieces of roasted meat from a nearby wooden table and stuffed them into his mouth.
The Green Forest World forbade killing, but the Elf King clearly did not adhere to this sacred rule.
“Elf King, I know you are different from the others.” Satan’er said.
“The Elf Queen is the supreme existence for the elves.” The Elf King replied in a hoarse, languid voice.
“Supreme is merely an empty emotion. You can say those words in such a calm tone, which proves you lack sufficient reverence for the Queen. I believe you would rather become the true King of the Elves.” Satan’er continued.
The Elf King said coldly, “State your purpose!”
“The Elf Queen is still a little girl. You can take her, control her, even absorb the bloodline within her and alter your own elf lineage. I know you can do all this because you inherited the legacy of the Ancient Blood Elf…” Satan’er went on. “And I need the magical artefacts in Ye Chui’s hands. We can cooperate.”
“Are you seeking cooperation in the name of the Blood Dragon Flower Alliance?” The Elf King’s obese face narrowed his eyes to slits.
“No, I seek cooperation in the name of the Blood Land World.” Satan’er smiled evilly.
“Then what do you plan to do?” A smile tugged at the Elf King’s lips, whether mocking or knowing, unclear.
“Pretend to submit to the Stan World, but secure at least one month first. During that time, I will mobilise Blood Land warriors into the Green Forest World. When the Green Forest World merges with the Stan World, we will catch Ye Chui off guard with an attack!” Satan’er spoke like a demon.
The Blood Dragon Flower Alliance had chosen to wait rather than attack the Stan World immediately because they feared how many hidden cards Ye Chui still held. But Satan’er had thought of a better plan: let Blood Land warriors infiltrate the Green Forest. When the worlds merged, the Blood Land warriors would launch a surprise assault and kill Ye Chui in one strike.
