Outrageous! I started as the Elf King!

Chapter 151 Blood Oath! Lin Yi: This naive and innocent girl, we haven't killed enough of her! (Please subscribe)

The main hall in the middle of the lake was deathly silent.

After the mermaid chieftain Catherine finished speaking, the fear on the faces of the mermaids present quickly disappeared, replaced by an unusually firm expression. Some of the mermaids even picked up the weapons they had just dropped.

None of the mermaids spoke.

Whether they were Saint-level elders or ordinary mermaids.

They were all gripping their weapons tightly.

Although Daphne's strength was overwhelming, they were still determined to fight for their beliefs. Just as Chief Catherine had said, they didn't want to be bound by anything.

Once you lower your head now~

It will be even more difficult for them to break free from the control of the Medusa clan in the future.

Seeing the mermaids' reaction, Daphne was stunned. Furthermore, Catherine's words had also deeply impacted her.

Until much later.

Daphne coldly looked at the mermaid chieftain Catherine and said, "For thousands of years, my mother's clan and I have protected you. Now that the demons have retreated and your people have grown stronger, you want to betray me and pursue your so-called freedom?"

"Without the protection of me and my mother's clan..."

"How did you manage to hold on until now?"

"They were all wiped out by demons a thousand years ago!"

"Now you're telling me that your mermaid race doesn't want to be bound?"

In the beginning, there were quite a few Medusas who settled in Tianma Lake. However, for various reasons, they all perished one after another, some of whom died in battle protecting the mermaid race.

In short, up to now.

Only Daphne remained as Medusa.

Here, the mermaid clan chief Catherine stood up with the help of two elders.

The trident was still stuck in her chest.

The halberd tip pierced through his chest, and blood dripped out.

Her face was deathly pale, yet she possessed a poignant beauty.

Catherine's voice trembled slightly as she said, "Our teacher and Medusa did protect us, but how many of our mermaid clan members sacrificed themselves for you?"

"Seven hundred years ago, my mother led seven thousand people to Hidden Dragon Valley to save her teacher from the clutches of a demon. In the end, no one survived except my mother."

"After returning to the island, my mother passed away after giving birth to me."

"I have never resented my teacher."

"Because serving the Medusa clan is also the mission of our people."

"Medusa protects us, and we serve Medusa; it has always been mutual. We, the mermaid race, have never owed Medusa anything."

"Right now, all we want is to end this relationship."

Upon hearing these words, Daphne's breathing became much heavier.

She became even angrier.

But she couldn't bring herself to say what she wanted to say.

After a long silence, Daphne said coldly, "Without me, would you be where you are today?"

Catherine said, "Teacher, you still don't understand. It's not just me who wants to break free and embrace freedom, but our entire tribe."

"Even without me, other mermaids would step forward."

"I am grateful to my teachers for nurturing me."

"I'll give my life for my teacher!"

At this point, Catherine forcefully pulled the trident from her body, and blood quickly stained her chest and her golden dress.

"Chieftain!"

The surrounding mermaids gasped in shock, tears streaming down their faces.

Catherine raised her eyes to look at Daphne, and said in an extremely weak voice, "I don't care if I die, I only beg you, Master, to spare my people..."

"Great, excellent!"

Daphne's chest heaved violently with anger.

With a wave of her right hand, she infused a water elemental law into Catherine's body.

Soon, Catherine's pale face regained its color.

The injury under his clothes was also healing rapidly.

Daphne said in an icy voice, "You want to die? I'll make sure you don't! You want freedom, you don't want to be bound? Then I'll give you freedom and untie your bonds!"

"I'd like to see……"

"Without the protection of my Medusa clan, how far could your mermaid clan go!"

"From this day forward, your mermaid clan has nothing to do with my Medusa clan!"

"I, Daphne, as royalty of the sea race, expel your mermaid clan from the sea race! The sea is the territory of my Medusa clan, and any mermaid who dares to enter the sea is a mortal enemy of my Medusa clan!"

Swish! !

The trident pierced the void, radiating an incomparably dazzling golden light.

Blood left its mark high in the sky.

Until it returns to nothingness.

Daphne gripped the returning trident, staring expressionlessly at Catherine and the group of mermaids behind her, and said, "Now, you are free!"

The thousands of mermaids present trembled with fear.

No one cheered at this moment.

Although they achieved their goal, they were also banished from the sea and lost their sea-kin identity. This was not just Daphne's words; it was a vow, flowing in their blood, to be passed down through generations of the Medusa clan.

Once they enter the ocean, the Medusa clan will surely kill them.

This is a blood oath, a revenge for betrayal.

Until death do us part, until eternity!

Catherine's body trembled violently, and a bitter expression crossed her face.

However, she quickly calmed down again.

She was mentally prepared.

Catherine, disregarding the support of the two mermaid elders, bowed respectfully to Daphne: "Thank you, teacher!"

"No need!"

Daphne gave a cold snort.

"I am now acting on the orders of His Majesty the Sun Elf King to eliminate the invaders from Tianma Lake. You have three days to choose: live or die, or leave Tianma Lake!"

Catherine took a deep breath.

Sabrina had previously reported to her that a Sun Elf had been born among the Nature Elf race, and that the Sun Elf had mastered the power of time and space, possessing terrifyingly strong talent.

Therefore, she was not surprised when she heard the title of Sun Elf King.

To her surprise, her teacher had simply gone out for a stroll and somehow managed to make her disappear, ending up under the command of that sun elf.

But upon closer reflection, it seems quite normal.

Queen Veranika of Medusa in the past also followed the Sun Elf King who created the Elf Empire.

Catherine replied almost without hesitation, "Teacher, it won't take three days. I'll lead my people away from Tianma Lake right now!"

Daphne gave her a deep look.

Then, his figure flickered and disappeared.

"Chieftain!"

A group of mermaid elders immediately surrounded them.

He looked at Catherine's clothes, which were stained with blood, with worry.

"I'm fine."

Catherine touched her chest, thinking to herself, "My teacher is ultimately kind-hearted; she can't bring herself to kill me!"

Sabrina hurriedly asked, "Chief, are we really going to leave Tianma Lake?"

Catherine nodded and said, "Since our teacher has chosen to serve that Elf King, it means that he has grown up and most likely has already advanced to the level of a demigod, possessing the powerful strength to suppress our teacher."

"If we don't leave Tianma Lake, our tribe may really be wiped out."

Sabrina said worriedly, "But where can we go after leaving Tianma Lake? Even if the ocean hadn't been polluted, we can't go back now."

They were stripped of their sea-kin identity and were forbidden from approaching the sea. Catherine said, "Don't worry, I've already planned this!"

"Go and prepare."

"Gather our people, the water monster, and those fishmen who are willing to leave with us, and set off at dawn."

"Yes, Chieftain!"

The group of mermaid elders immediately felt reassured.

They hurriedly went down to collect the bodies of their clansmen and prepare for their relocation.

The mermaids were very fast, and they were all ready in just a few hours. Then, led by Catherine, they headed towards the southernmost part of Tianma Lake, bathed in the glow of the setting sun.

Aside from those killed by Daphne~

There are still more than 80,000 mermaids.

Hundreds of thousands of fishmen, and thousands of water monsters of either saintly or extraordinary levels.

This power is absolutely powerful!

In the void.

A figure slowly emerged.

Watching the large, departing convoy, Daphne's feelings were incredibly complex. She felt extremely angry, yet inexplicably, she couldn't muster any anger.

Daphne only looked away when the dark figure in the distance had completely disappeared.

"They messed things up on their first mission."

"I wonder if His Majesty will blame me..."

Daphne gave a wry smile.

Then his figure flickered and disappeared again.

……

This part of the territory.

Lin Yi remained seated cross-legged beneath the old tree's main trunk.

The vegetation around him was exhibiting a strange phenomenon.

Sometimes it's like springtime, bringing life to all things; other times it withers and decays quickly...

This scene repeats itself endlessly, in a never-ending cycle.

I don't know how much time has passed.

10,000 meters above the ground.

Suddenly, dark clouds gathered.

There were also streaks of lightning flashing across the sky, accompanied by rolling thunder.

Immediately afterwards, large raindrops fell, soaking the earth in just a few moments, but also giving new life to the vegetation in the ancient city ruins.

A long time has passed.

The heavy rain showed no signs of stopping...

However, two astonishing beams of light, one white and one gray, emerged from Lin Yi's body, then broke through the spatial barrier of the territory and soared straight into the sky, causing the thick clouds to collapse instantly.

In an instant, the rain stopped, and the sky cleared.

The sunlight shone on Lin Yi, bathing him in a golden glow.

Lin Yi opened her eyes.

Its pupils were one gray and one white, which was quite eerie.

A moment later, his pupils returned to normal.

Lin Yi sensed the sea of ​​magic power within her body, which had grown considerably stronger than before. She thought to herself, "Although this seclusion was short, I gained a great deal, comprehending three elemental laws in succession."

"They are life, the undead, and the water element."

Comprehending all three laws simultaneously naturally resulted in a triple reward from the origin of the world's laws. He reaped a large amount of primordial power, further expanding the scale of the Sea of ​​Magic.

"Now, I have mastered six laws."

"Life, death, water, holiness, light, and fire!"

"Although none of them are top-tier laws, the convergence of the six laws has elevated my strength to an astonishing level."

"Even suppressing a peak demigod would be effortless."

At that moment, Lin Yi suddenly felt an urge to head to the Chaotic Plains.

He is no longer weak.

We can go and meet the Moon Elf Queen now.

But at that moment, he seemed to sense something.

With a wave of his right hand, a portal opened in the spatial barrier surrounding the inner city.

At the same time, a stunningly beautiful figure flew in through the portal; it was Medusa Daphne.

She approached Lin Yi and bowed respectfully: "Greetings, Your Majesty the Elf King!"

Lin Yi sensed a strong smell of blood on Daphne.

"How many did you kill?"

"No less than 20,000!"

Daphne responded in a low voice.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Judging from your expression, things don't seem to be going as smoothly as you thought!"

Daphne immediately knelt down and pleaded, "Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

She recounted everything that happened on the Mermaid Islands, including how she made a blood oath to drive the mermaid race out of the sea.

"Your Majesty, Catherine desires freedom and does not wish to be bound."

"She has already left Tianma Lake with those mermaids, fish-men, and the water monsters they control."

"However, those mermaid elders still bear my mark within them, and I can sense their location at any time. If Your Majesty... if you wish to stop them, I can..."

"No need!"

Lin Yi waved her hand.

Looking at Daphne kneeling before him, he thought to himself that he hadn't killed enough.

This Medusa was too soft-hearted; not only did she not kill the mermaid chieftain herself, but she also killed less than one-fifth of the mermaids on the island.

If it were him, he would have killed at least half of them.

The remaining half wouldn't dare say anything like "I don't want to be bound, I want to embrace freedom."

In such a dark world, what is freedom?

The weak don't deserve it at all!

Lin Yi said calmly, "Forced relationships are never sweet. If they don't want to join our territory, then let them be."

In the past...

He would definitely try to bring such a powerful force under his control.

But now, he doesn't care anymore.

To him now, the mermaid race could only be described as 'small', and he no longer wanted to waste his attention on those mermaids.

"Your Majesty is merciful!"

Daphne blurted out.

Lin Yi glanced at her and said, "Get up. Go make me breakfast. After you eat, you can go back to Tianma Lake. Don't mess up the mission about the water monster and the beastmen again!"

Daphne was overjoyed and, as she rose, said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, if I botch things again, I will flee to the deep sea and never appear before Your Majesty again!"

Lin Yi's lips twitched.

He would never grant Medusa's "wish".

Who knows, Daphne might be the only Medusa in this world.

This naive girl let her mermaid escape, and then she even prepared to say she was "too ashamed to face her lord." How could he possibly agree to that?

"If you mess this up, you don't need to flee to the deep sea; just become my maid."

"what?"

Daphne's mouth dropped open. Was this a punishment or a reward?
