Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler

— Chapter 305 —

At the Sea Dragon’s Mansion, Yunlong sat on the opposite side of the Elven Queen.

The room’s mood is so awkward because none wants to open their mouth.

The Elven Queen couldn’t fathom how such an odd human became God’s Candidate. Meanwhile, Yunlong only wanted to rest for a moment.

Chu Yunxi placed two cups of tea for them, leaving with a smile on her face.

After several seconds, Yunlong picked the teacup and said, “So, your purpose here is to find a new home planet to live on.”

“Why?”

Yun Lingxi sighed and said, “Our former planet is on the verge of dying.”

“An unknown dark energy appeared and exhausted the planet’s source, which we can’t even fix because nature couldn’t persist there anymore.”

“As the Queen, I cannot let my race fall, so we jumped to the vast space and searched for a new place to be called home.”

Yunlong sipped his tea and stared at the Elven Queen calmly. He couldn’t sense a single lie in her words, which meant her race was in danger.

“I’ll ignore the hostile treatment.” He commented casually.

“Eh?” Yun Lingxi raised her head in surprise. “But you’re the one who provokes-.”

Yunlong narrowed his gaze, causing the Elven Queen to close her mouth in frustration.

After receiving Yun Xing from this human, Yun Lingxi realized none of her daughter’s bones actually was cracked by him. He snapped his finger to catch their attention.

(An: Imagine Kaneki)

‘How cunning…’ Yun Lingxi thought to herself.

She was sure her daughter’s neck bent weirdly, but that was just an optical illusion to fool the entire ship. It’s embarrassing for her to fall into such a simple trap.

“Daddy!” Little Saixi suddenly barged into the room and hugged Yunlong from behind.

“Mommy told me to protect you.”

Yunlong chuckled slightly and replied, “Ah, Thank you, I’m safe now.”

His cheeky smile caused Elven Queen’s mouth to twitch in irritation. Still, Yun Lingxi has to admit this human is quite handsome.

“Dark Energy, huh.” Yunlong rested his head on the chair.

He somehow remembered an annoying cockroach he couldn’t kill when helping the Extreme North. His spiritual energy flared from his palm and reconstructed the scenery like a hologram.

“Does this look familiar to you?” He asked while staring at the Elven Queen.

Yun Lingxi frowned and attentively watched Yunlong fighting the Dark Lich, defeating the master of darkness.

A flash of realization swept over Yun Lingxi’s mind because the Dark Lich used the same energy that destroyed her home planet.

However, she couldn’t recognize the Dark Lich’s face for some reason. As far as she remembered, there is none like him reported on the planet.

“Also, this guy could turn the corpse into undead,” Yunlong added casually, remembering the dark elves he killed.

“I fought the undead dark elven and their guardian in the past.”

“Dark Elven?” Yun Lingxi nervously sighed because she hadn’t heard about that race for so long. They disappeared from the face of this universe with their plane.

“If only Rukh is still alive, Dark Elven wouldn’t perish-.”

“You mean this?” Yunlong summoned something from his palm.

A familiar bright dark golden light suddenly entered Yun Lingxi’s sight. Her eyes slowly widened in shock.

She couldn’t believe her eyes for a moment because Rukh’s will was similar to Breath of the Wild, indicating the ruler of Night Forest’s realm.

“Don’t tell me you also possessed the Night Forest-.” She mumbled softly.

“Well, yeah.” Yunlong shrugged his shoulders and opened a portal to the Night Forest casually.

A quiet yet beautiful dark forest scenery directly entered Elven Queen’s vision. It’s comparable to her former home planet, full of life with a shining white moon, though darker.

“…” Yun Lingxi’s face hardened in disbelief.

She doesn’t want to admit it, but Dark Forest is an ideal place for her Elven Race to live peacefully. It’s full of vitality with no sign of danger.

‘The problem is…’ Yun Lingxi moved her gaze back to Yunlong.

“What?” Yunlong placed his teacup on the table.

“I know my face is handsome, but don’t stare too much.”

Little Saixi nodded in agreement and said, “Daddy’s handsome.”

“Hey, Long ears, don’t look at him like that.”

Yun Lingxi’s mouth is wide open because she cannot handle these humans’ shamelessness. This childish woman called her “Long ears.” which was somehow infuriating.

It’s tempting to attack them now, but as A Queen, Yun Lingxi has to remain calm in this situation. After all, Her decision led to her people’s future life.

A horrible decision will only cause despair for the Elven Race later.

Yun Lingxi sighed and fixed her demeanor to a calm yet wise Elven Queen. “Let me reintroduce myself.” She said to Yunlong.

“My name is Yun Lingxi, the 69th Elven Queen of Evergreen.”

Yunlong smiled and responded, “Nice to meet you, Queen.”

“I’m Batman.”

(An: I know)

“Eh, what?!” Little Saixi gave off a confused expression.

“Sorry, Little Saixi, I was lying.” Yunlong patted his head. “I’ve been hiding this secret for several months.”

“You’re joking, right.” Yun Lingxi clenched her hands a little.

Yunlong cleared his throat and answered, “Obviously.”

“Anyway, my name is Yunlong.”

Yun Lingxi bowed her head and sincerely said, “I’m sorry on behalf of my daughter.”

“I know it’s late, but Yunlong, could you forgive her.” She added with teary eyes. “I don’t want an unnecessary animosity between you and my race.”

Little Saixi put her hand below her chin suspiciously and muttered, “Crocodile.”

Yunlong pushed Little Saixi aside and casually said, “Go to your Mommy.”

“I’ll handle this by myself.”

“Okay!” Little Saixi jumped from her position and gave Yunlong a peck on the cheek.

She ran away quickly to the door and shouted, “Little Saixi’s protection, disabling any evil charms!!!”

Meanwhile, inside, Bo Saixi hugged her knee in embarrassment because Little Saixi kissed Yunlong. Her face blushed like a ripe strawberry.

“Oh, Poseidon~!”

“What kind of trial did you give to me?”

“Even my mind cannot handle this embarrassment…”

Bo Saixi touched her lips gently and visualized Yunlong’s texture on them. “No, Don’t Do That!” She slowly rolled her spiritual body around like a pinball.

.

Yunlong and Yun Lingxi stared at each other solemnly.

The Elven Queen thought solemnly about a way to get help from Yunlong. As for the young man himself thinking about something else.

‘What should I do with these Elven?’ He pondered for a moment.

Yunlong had already accepted the Elven Race in his mind, but what role should they play in his plan?

Elven Race is a fine addition to his army. They also could send their faith to him, considering he could become a god in the future.

However, Sun and Moon Continent’s usage of Abyssal Beast, like the demonic plague rat he caught a few moments ago, causes Yunlong to rearrange his movement.

The Abyssal Plane appeared 20.000 years later, supposedly.

Still, the Sun and Moon Continent somehow can get their hands on it. There are a lot of things swayed by his presence.

Yunlong always considered the Butterfly Effect a dangerous aspect of this world. It’s problematic to handle even if he attempted to pry into the future.

The Elven Race themselves become victims of his past actions.

The existence of Dark Lich caused their home planet to fall into demise. He felt annoyed because his action birthed such a problem.

Yun Lingxi picked up her teacup and said, “Yunlong, can you help the Elven Race?”

“We’ll also try our best to help you.”

“I noticed you’re still at war with a faction called the Sun and Moon Continent, no?”

“Of course, I’ll grant any possible wish you desired.”

“Any possible wish, huh.” Yunlong lifted his body from the chair.

He stood in front of the Elven Queen and reached over her head slowly, patting her round head.

“A maid.”

“Eh?” Yun Lingxi looked at his face.

“Yes, A maid,” Yunlong confirmed with a playful tone.

“EEHHH??!!”

Several hours later, Yun Lingxi returned to the Elven Arc Ship and immediately met her daughter.

Everyone in a higher position was also present, staring at their Queen nervously. They waited for her with anxiety for hours, hoping nothing harmful happened to her.

Yun Lingxi stared at her loyal subject and said, “I have good news and bad news for all of you.”

“The human we offended before is a strong God’s Candidate.”

“His power is probably stronger than our entire legion.”

“Don’t worry, Mother!” Yun Xing raised her voice. “As long as we are together, we can overcome everything.”

“We can defeat him-.”

Pa!

A powerful smack noise echoed in the control room.

Yun Lingxi slapped her daughter’s left cheek, leaving a red palm mark. She bit her lips slightly because it was a difficult move for her, but Yun Xing had to grow up.

“Grow up, Xing’er.”

“You’re 697 years old already.”

“And We aren’t at Evergreen anymore.”

“Do you think this world will be nice to us?”

The entire room became quiet.

“That human possessed Rukh’s will.” Yun Lingxi calmly continued.

Gasp!

Everyone in the room gasped in surprise and quickly gazed back at Yun Lingxi in realization.

Even the old elven couldn’t hold his surprise, falling onto the ground because someone actually possessed hope for their race.

“All of you know what that meant, right?” She questioned sternly.

Yun Xing touched her swollen cheeks and answered, “Night Forest’s Realm.”

“Dark Elven’s secret plane.”

“I allied with the humans to live in that secret plane.”

“However, there is a price I must pay.”

“What do you mean by “I.”, Mother?” Yun Xing’s eyes shone with worry.

“D-Don’t tell me you sacrificed yourself.”

“Queen, is that true?”

They began to panic when Yun Lingxi nodded her head.

Yun Lingxi shook her head and said, “Calm down.”

“It’s a worthy sacrifice from me to all of you.”

“Hear me out, my people.” She declared calmly.

“For 1000 years, I have to become Yunlong’s maid.”

.

.

Yunlong picked up his phone from inventory and dialed Madara’s number slowly, calling him.

Drrtt!

“What do you want?” Madara answered instantly.

“I have a proper mission for you.” Yunlong returned while staring at the evening sea.

Madara laughed excitedly and said, “Heh, finally.”

“What is it?”

Yunlong sent a location to Madara’s phone and stated, “Bring your squad, and destroy Sun and Moon’s base near Douluo Continent.”

Madara viewed the vast map and commented, “You said near? This place is 2000km away from this continent.”

“What?” Yunlong responded in a joking manner.

“Don’t tell me the legendary Ghost of Uchiha is afraid of long distance?”

“What are you?”

“Tell me, where is the real Uchiha Madara!”

“Okay, okay, stop that,” Madara replied with an annoyed sigh.

“Is there any time limit?”

Yunlong tapped the window near him and answered, “Nope.”

Madara grinned and continued, “But you want me to do it as fast as possible, right?”

“Yes.” Yunlong laughed viciously.

They laughed at each other because of the conversation.

The call was closed by Madara, leaving a sly smile on Yunlong’s face because that fighting maniac would finish this mission like it was a challenge.

At Madara’s side, he placed his phone into the spatial ring and glanced at the vast field in front of him.

A red-haired girl flew in the air with a fiery crimson flame around her body.

“Xiaotao, call your friends,” Madara commanded indifferently.

“We have a new mission.”
