When he got closer, the sassy female half-elf looked at the half-elf girl up and down, then a touch of relief appeared on her fair face, and she smiled and said: "Mia, it's great that you're okay."
"Everyone is worried about you. You have worked hard during this period."
As the sassy female half-elf said this, her starry eyes moved, and she cast her eyes with a bit of scrutiny and a bit of surprise on the group of people, and finally stopped on Lei Xiao.
Although Lei Xiao and Ariel had both changed into casual clothes, the sassy female half-elf could still tell at a glance that the former was clearly in a leadership position in the team.
The most important thing is that whether it is the special way of appearing with a giant city or the inexplicable opening of the city gate just now, it all shows that the group of people in front of us are by no means ordinary people.
While feeling surprised, the sassy female half-elf stabilized her mind and asked the half-elf girl: "Mia, are these strong men the helpers you have found?"
"That's right, aunt, these adults are not only strong, but also great people!"
Mia's starry eyes were full of excitement. While pulling the sassy female half-elf to Lei Xiao and Ariel, she introduced: "Aunt, this is His Royal Highness the Holy Lion Prince of the Cold Flame Kingdom, and
This is Her Majesty the Queen of the Cold Flame Kingdom!"
"What?!"
As soon as Mia said this, not only the sassy female half-elf showed uncontrollable surprise, but even the half-elves behind her had expressions of astonishment on their faces and they looked at each other.
Leng Yan, this kingdom that once opened its arms and accepted the Zhuyue Clan, was once the object of reverence and gratitude for many Zhuyue Clan people, and the object for which many Zhuyue Clan people fought bloody battles.
It was it that allowed the half-elves to stop wandering around and have a stable place to settle down. It was also it that gave the half-elves a glory they had never dared to dream of, and allowed the Zhuyue clan to achieve unprecedented prosperity.
But as the saying goes, love is deep and hate is deep.
When the kingdom's arms no longer opened, but instead looked coldly at each other, the half-elves who thought they had finally integrated into this kingdom woke up from their dreams.
Half-elves cannot escape the fate of wandering around.
In the end, although the kingdom allowed them to take away part of the wealth, the half-elves still returned everything without hesitation and left the land where they had lived for hundreds of years.
They don’t need charity from the Kingdom, nor do they need the Kingdom’s pretense. They had nothing when they came, so what’s the difference between when they came and when they left?
But even if they are arrogant half-elves, how can they not feel sad, grievances, injustice, and even hatred?
Perhaps from the beginning, the other party only regarded them as tools, and never regarded them as partners, let alone as their own children.
Hundreds of years passed by in a hurry again.
Now, when Mia once again mentioned this name that was gradually fading but made the half-elves heartbroken, the result was predictable.
How could the sassy female half-elf and other half-elves who had experienced that era not be shocked?
"You are the leader of the Qiduo clan, right?"
Lei Xiao was the first to break the deadlock and smiled at the sassy female half-elf with a fair face full of astonishment in front of him.
From the breath alone, it can be seen that the strength of this sassy female half-elf is even better than that of Wu. She has obviously reached the peak level of the fifth level and nine stars.
Coupled with Mia's title, the answer is naturally self-evident.
This person was none other than one of the Nine Dragon-Slaying Heroes whose fame spread throughout the human nations five hundred years ago. He was also one of the former wealthy family heads of the Lengyan Kingdom, Qiduo Zhuyue.
"If I remember correctly, when Qiduo joined the dragon-slaying team, she was only a 150-year-old young half-elf. Now she is 650 years old, right? Even more than 100 years older than Jiang Li."
"But judging from the appearance, he looks about 30 years old at most. I have to say that the bloodline of the half-elves is indeed extraordinary. Although it is far inferior to the real elves, it is still an extremely outstanding race."
"It is said that when fighting against the sixth-order purple-winged dragon, it was the Arrow God Chiduo who shot through both wings and one of the dragon's eyes like a heavy fort, which allowed the dragon-slaying team to gain a lot of victory.
advantage, and finally killed the violent purple-winged dragon."
"Now it seems that this guy is not only as handsome as before, but he is also obviously more powerful."
Just when Lei Xiao was sighing in his heart, the sassy female half-elf opposite him came back to his senses.
She hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I am the leader of the Zhuyue Clan, Qi Duo. Thank you for coming to lend a helping hand."
At this point, Qi Duo's starry eyes carefully observed Lei Xiao and Ariel for a moment, and then asked tentatively: "Are these two really the Queen and the Holy Lion Prince of the Cold Flame Kingdom today?"
As the former Grand Duke of Leng Yan, Qi Duo is obviously no stranger to the power structure of the Leng Yan Kingdom.
As the leader of the Zhuyue Clan, even though Qi Duo still has a grudge against the Cold Flame Kingdom, Lei Xiao and Ariel are here to save them after all, so she will naturally not show any signs of neglect.
The half-elves have clear grievances, and the person who drove the Zhuyue clan out of Lengyan was not the current ruler of Lengyan.
Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao and Ariel looked at each other and smiled, and immediately their hearts moved slightly. Lei Xiao took out a golden ring engraved with a lion's head.
Ariel, on the other hand, quickly changed her outfit and displayed the three symbols of royal power, the crown, the scepter and the sword of the King of Heroes.
It is worth mentioning that the ring on Lei Xiao’s hand is the Holy Lion Prince Ring. Although it is not a piece of equipment, it represents the supreme status. There is only one in the entire Cold Flame Kingdom.
In fact, Ariel also gave Lei Xiao a crown exclusive to the Holy Lion Prince. It looked extremely luxurious, but Lei Xiao thought it was too eye-catching and heavy, so he did not wear it.
"It is indeed a symbol of royal power and a prince's ring!"
Chiduo looked at Ariel and Lei Xiao as the Queen arrived, her star eyes couldn't help but tremble slightly.
These symbols of supreme royal power were the goals that I and the Zhuyue clan fought and defended in the past. I never expected to see them again on this occasion and in this way.
Except for Qi Duo, among the half-elf soldiers at the rear, some older veteran half-elves also had blurry eyes, as if they had seen the former home of the Cold Flame Kingdom and the time when they were no longer homeless.
"Aunt, actually this morning was the coronation ceremony of Her Majesty the Queen! It was also the canonization ceremony of His Royal Highness the Prince!"
Mia hugged Chiduo's arms and added: "We came directly from the royal capital!"
"What? Her Majesty the Queen and Her Royal Highness the Prince came directly from the coronation ceremony?"
After hearing Mia's words, not only Chiduo herself, but also the half-elf veterans at the rear could not help but feel moved, looking flattered.
Back then, when they left the Cold Flame Kingdom, except for the iron-armored royal army that was guarding the surrounding area in the name of escort, none of the senior officials of the Cold Flame Kingdom showed up.
But today, when they were in danger and had run out of ammunition and food, Her Majesty the Queen and His Royal Highness the Prince, who had just been crowned, personally led people to rescue them. What a huge difference is this?
However, when they thought of the loneliness and sadness they felt when they left, the half-elves tightened their faces again, trying their best to avoid showing any emotion.
In any case, the Kingdom of Cold Flame expelled them from their former home without any reason, the place where the people of the Zhuyue Clan had shed their blood and sacrificed their lives for. Their pride did not allow them to lower their heads easily.
Keenly noticing the emotional changes of the half-elves, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.
Lei Xiao, who is well aware of history, naturally knows that it is impossible for half-elves to overcome the knot of their hearts so easily.
"Chief Qiduo, now is not the time for chatting. We should find a way to return to the real space first."
Lei Xiao nodded to the slender and sassy female half-elf in front of him, then turned to the old man in blue robe and said: "Old sir, can "Ice Stone City" still return to the real space?"
"The old man has just sensed that the reason why "Ice Stone City" escaped here is because the half-elves living in the city accidentally activated the last ray of energy in the city's central system, which caused the abandoned city to automatically transform
For defensive purposes, an automatic transfer occurred."
The blue-robed old man nodded slightly and said, "However, after the transfer, the energy was completely exhausted, making it impossible for "Ice Stone City" to return to the real space."
"Old sir, is there any way to restart the city center or replenish energy?"
Lei Xiao didn't hesitate and asked immediately.
Lei Xiao clearly understood that although the "Ice City Stone" was used for cultivation, in terms of function, it was almost the same as the "Crystal Blue City".
If we can find a way to repair it so that "Ice Stone City" can also be used by us, it will naturally be a big help.
Even if he can't be used by us, we can still sell the old man in blue robe a favor. After all, the old man in blue robe is equivalent to the city lord of this god's land. His own strength is extremely impressive, and it doesn't look like he will disappear soon.
Look.
"Yes, yes, but I still need your help."
The old man in blue robe used honorifics to Lei Xiao for the first time, nodded and said: "Only by injecting the power of God's favor into the central system of the city, and then through the cooperation of the old man, can it be reactivated. After all, the old man was once the talker here.
, naturally I know this city well.”
After finishing speaking, the blue-robed old man sighed softly. If he was still alive, it would be easy to repair this city.
But now he is just a ray of remaining energy. Apart from the original energy, he cannot use the power of the gods at all, so naturally he cannot repair it.
In other words, only Lei Xiao, who can use the power of the gods, is the key to repairing the city center.
"So, we can successfully return to the real space?"
Regarding the words of Lei Xiao and the blue-robed old man, Qi Duo, who was standing by the side, had only a partial understanding of what he said, but he immediately reacted and said with bright eyes.
At the same time, this capable matriarch of the Zhuyue Clan also quickly figured out the identity of the old man in blue robe, who seemed to be the real master of the city.
Although she didn’t know why Lei Xiao knew this old man, Qiduo still smiled awkwardly and said to the blue-robed old man in front of him who couldn’t even tell the difference between himself and himself: “I’m sorry, senior, it’s our fault.
I have intruded into your territory."
"It doesn't matter. Since you are all members of your Excellency's tribe, I will naturally not blame you."
The old man in blue robe also gave Lei Xiao enough face, stroking his blue beard and said.
"Does he regard us as clansmen?"
After hearing the words of the old man in blue robe, Qi Duo was startled, and then returned to normal.
I saw her signaling to the tribesmen blocking the city gate to move out of the way, and she quickly said: "Please go this way."
Under Qi Duo's guidance, the group quickly passed through the mottled ice stone city gate and entered the city.
This city is just like what you see from the outside, with everything covered by vines and moss. The half-elves who admire nature did not clean it up, but moved in directly.
On both sides of the spacious street, half-elf civilians had long been standing onlookers.
Whether they were young people, children, or the elderly, they all looked at Lei Xiao and Ariel at the front.
It's just that some of the young people and children showed awe, and some showed curiosity, while the old faces all had indescribably complex expressions, just like Chiduo and the half-elves at the door.
It seems that the special identities of Lei Xiao and Ariel have obviously reached the ears of every half-elf.
Not long after, under the guidance of the old man in blue robe, the group stopped in front of a collapsed building in the center of the city.
Judging from the outline of the ruins, this collapsed building covers an extremely large area, much like several other damaged light chasing castles in Crystal Blue City.
"Are all the miraculous buildings in "Ice Stone City" completely destroyed?"
The blue-robed old man sighed helplessly, then waved his hand casually, and the huge piles of rocks blocking the road in front of him moved away automatically as if moved by a pair of invisible hands, making a rumbling sound.
"Energy takes shape and shakes everything. He is indeed a sixth-level powerhouse!"
Qiduo's starry eyes twinkled and she couldn't help but exclaimed in wonder.
Behind her were a dozen or so powerful old half-elves. Lei Xiao and Ariel had just greeted them, and they were the elders of the Zhuyue clan.
This scene made the elders all look surprised.
After all, even among their Zhuyue clan, there is only one fifth-level powerhouse named Qiduo, let alone an unattainable sixth-level powerhouse.
The most important thing is that even though he is a sixth-level strong man who can look down upon the royal families of the human race, he is extremely polite to the young Holy Lion Prince, and even needs the young prince's help.
Thinking of this in his mind, pairs of old eyes filled with awe were cast on Lei Xiao's back.
"Sir, let's go in. Below is the center of the city."
The old man in blue robe pointed to the exposed staircase leading to the underground and nodded to Lei Xiao. ()
