Gao Wu: Others practice martial arts, but you cultivate immortality?

Chu Yuan prepared to return to Da Qin;

Although the chances are very low...

But if a primordial being were to wander into the Yichen Star Region, the Great Qin would be in deep trouble.

The elves are good, but they are not their own race after all;

But before leaving, he wanted to resolve all of Ivy's troubles...

Actually, he didn't understand at all;

Even if the Elf Queen falls, Ivy will still be human;

Behind him stood two rulers, himself and Xifeng...

Bullying her could be life-threatening;

But there will always be fools who would risk their lives to bully her...

At the entrance to the Elven Temple, several Elven warriors at the Origin Realm blocked Ivy's way.

"Your Highness, we have come to retrieve the Key of Life on the orders of Elder Mito." The leader said casually.

Although he addressed the prince as "Your Highness," his tone and actions showed no respect whatsoever.

Ivy calmly replied, "The Key to Life was given to me by my mother. What does it have to do with Elder Mito?"

"Your Highness is joking... The Key of Life is an important asset of the tribe, not anyone's private property;

The Empress naturally has the right to dispose of things as she sees fit.

But you...

"Your strength is weak; if you were to get lost someday, it would be disastrous." The leading warrior shook his head: "Your Highness, please don't make things difficult for us."

"I won't hand it over. If you want to take it, then go ahead and do it."

"The elder of the Mituo tribe said that if you are a person of great righteousness and are willing to hand over the key of life, then this matter will be dropped."

If one insists on going one's own way and acts selfishly...

As punishment, you will also be stripped of your access to the Danku (energy storage facility).

Mia paused for a moment, then suddenly gave a sarcastic laugh;

The martial arts elixirs displayed in the alchemy storehouse are as vast as the sea, representing one of the Elven race's greatest treasures;

Although not all the pills were made by my mother, the most precious ones were all made by her and then placed among them.

Mito did indeed have the authority to manage Danku, after all, his mother had previously been unwilling to get involved in such trivial matters...

But now, even I can't get in?

She felt a chill in her heart.

Just then, a voice rang out from behind: "What kind of treasure is the Key of Life?"

"Chu Yuan, you've arrived." Ivy nodded to Chu Yuan as he walked over.

"Greetings, Lord!" Several elven warriors immediately knelt down;

The leader was sweating profusely.

Ivy... actually addressed this ruler by his full name?

And this ruler seemed to take it all in stride...

He cursed Mito in his mind.

"The Key to Life was refined from the Ancient Tree of Life of my Elf race;"

"In our ancient legends, the Elf race was born under the Ancient Elf Tree..." Ivy took out a wooden pendant: "But I later learned that the Ancient Tree of Life has nothing to do with my Elf race."

It is merely a rare treasure containing a vast amount of the essence of life;

So my mother refined it and gave it to me to use.

It can slowly elevate my level of life...

The Key to Life has more than just that function, and Ivy didn't explain it in detail;

Because the level of the Ancient Tree of Life is so low, it is not precious to the ruler.

Conversely, for the elves, its symbolic meaning outweighs its practical significance;

Even though it has long been proven that the birth of the Elven race has nothing to do with the Tree of Life... and even the name "Tree of Life" was given by the Elven race;

But after all, I've admired him for so long...

Therefore, this thing is more important as a symbol of identity within the Elven race.

Chu Yuan indeed didn't care;

He looked at the kneeling Origin Realm warrior and asked, "Are you afraid? Why?"

"No...no! I was just overwhelmed by the might of the Sovereign and lost my composure for a moment;"

Please forgive me, Lord...

"Really? I thought you were afraid I'd kill you..."

A terrifying pressure descended, pressing the group firmly to the ground;

Someone, seemingly unable to withstand the pressure, blurted out as if in a daze: "Lord Rongbing, we are currently under orders to handle internal clan affairs..."

"What instructions does the Lord have for us?"

"It's an internal matter..." Chu Yuan chuckled, "Wouldn't it be inappropriate for me to interfere?"

Ivy thought for a moment and said, "It's not a good idea, after all, my Elf race still has the Lord of the Tidewinds."

"What you said makes sense," Chu Yuan agreed.

The few Origin Realm cultivators kneeling on the ground had just breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Chu Yuan say, "Fortunately, I usually dislike following rules the most!"

Without a sound, the figures of several Origin Realm warriors vanished like shattered shadows!

Only the leader remained, kneeling on the spot, his body trembling uncontrollably.

"Come on, take me to see that Meeto..."

How many heads does it have?

"Mituo is the most promising person to be promoted to the Starry Sky Ruler after me, and the Empress originally placed high hopes on him;

"I never expected..." tide Feng appeared, her tone filled with disappointment.

He could naturally sense the presence of a sovereign-level power being activated on Guangyang Star and immediately rushed over...

Chu Yuan sneered, "Unexpected? There are many things you can't imagine."

"Is this how you take care of the next Elf Queen you mentioned?"

Ivy offered some words of comfort to Xifeng: "There are many affairs in the clan, and Master Xifeng has just taken over, so naturally he's a bit busy..."

"Chu Yuan, at most they'll just annoy me, they won't dare do anything really to me."

tide Feng said helplessly, "There are indeed a lot more things to do... but it's not what you think."

I know about Meto's behavior;

The reason they didn't show themselves was to see just how many people were secretly dissatisfied with Ivy.

Dealing with each one as it appears is just too troublesome;

"It would be better to lure them into opening their minds and clean things up once and for all..."

Chu Yuan asked in surprise, "Ivy, are you unpopular among the elves?"

He looked at her, and realized that Ivy didn't seem like that kind of person...

"..."

tide Feng explained, "It's not a matter of popularity...it all boils down to jealousy."

The resources Ivy enjoys are far better than those of many Origin Realm cultivators in her clan.

"Well, that's what happens when they don't have a mother to rule them over."

tide Feng laughed and said, "In the eyes of your foreign tribes, it is indeed a matter of course that a mother favors her own child."

But I am an elf...

The Queen is everyone's Queen; she shines upon all beings like the sun.

Their reverence for the Queen wouldn't extend to Ivy; instead, it would transform into resentment.

"..." Chu Yuan was somewhat speechless;

He suddenly felt that the universe was a giant "Mom, love me again"...

"Besides, do you really think Mituo sent people to target...and even humiliate Ivy because of the resources she possesses?"

Chu Yuan asked, puzzled, "Then what else could it be?"

tide Feng fell silent;

Ivy whispered, "Because everyone thinks that I killed my mother;

If it weren't for me, my mother wouldn't have gone to the Floating Boat Domain...

"And it will not perish..."
