Chapter 1071: Chapter 1064: Long-Awaited Return to Divine Wood Town

"Hmm, is she right beside us?" Li Si paused for a moment, then looked around and asked.

"She usually doesn’t show herself, only hiding and silently observing," Luo’er explained.

"But I can’t sense her presence at all," Li Si remarked.

"She’s a spirit; if you could sense her presence, it would be damn surprising," Luo’er said with a shrug.

"Aye, now that you mention it, she doesn’t seem any easier to deal with than her sister..." Li Si sighed, then added with lingering fear, "Lucky I didn’t speak in Tasta just now, or I would have been truly finished."

"If you’re still interested in Sister Nightingale, you’d better not speak ill of her. She holds a grudge," Luo’er cautioned.

"I heard that when you were in the tombs, you met the ancestor from the Ziang’s Family, Cheng Ziang. You said she’s killed countless people over the centuries. Since she’s a demigod, why not let Fulajie’er learn her abilities?" asked Li Si.

"What are you saying," Luo’er seemed a little angry upon hearing his words, "indiscriminate killing is certainly not the act of a god. Liseya can only be considered a demon, not a deity."

"You believe in so-called divinity, too?" Li Si asked, looking at him calmly.

"Well," Luo’er sighed, then continued, "There are many marvelous things in this world, many rules completely different from those on Earth. Some things that can’t be explained on Earth have perfect interpretations here, like divinity. Fulajie may be destined never to become a true god, but I still hope to endow her with divinity."

"Speaking of divinity, you’ve made a significant discovery this time. If we can decrypt the codes left by the Ancients, we might unlock the advanced technology of the Otherworld. That’s crucial for us," said Li Si.

"I’m entrusting these things to you because I trust that our country will not misuse them. Don’t betray my trust for some people’s selfish desires," Luo’er stated.

"Don’t worry, the motherland you trust will never do anything to disappoint you. Universal harmony has always been our ultimate aspiration, whether on Earth or in the Otherworld," Li Si reassured him.

"Maybe the Ancestors anticipated today, which is why they left this information for us," Luo’er reflected.

"You’re starting to believe in fate, too?" asked Li Si with a smile.

"It’s not that I believe," Luo’er pressed his lips together and then looked down as he spoke, "but rather, I’m already caught in the web of destiny..."

With those words, the two fell into a tacit silence. Not far away, Taran excitedly pointed below and shouted, "Wow, sister, sister, we’ve crossed the Snow Mountain!"

"Be careful, you’re barely standing steady," Baiyue comforted him, holding him steady with a gentle voice.

"By the way," Li Si said thoughtfully, suddenly breaking the silence, "we’ll be unloading at Divine Wood Down, and then we’ll take you to the seaside..."

"Hmm," Luo’er nodded, his tone suggesting there was more to it.

"When we get to Divine Wood Down, you’ll meet your mother, and... your grandmother, although you’ll have to call her Queen," said Li Si.

"What exactly are you trying to say? Don’t beat around the bush," Luo’er couldn’t take it anymore and cut him off.

"You’re going to Xia Yue Island, to liberate something called Xiapei Kam, to use it to counter Tana... Luo’er, is this really appropriate?" Li Si asked.

"Is it inappropriate?" Luo’er replied with a question.

"Tana is the chief deity of the Wood Elves, and your family rules over Ilanadale. This is quite rebellious of you..." Li Si said with a smile.

"Tana opposes the integration of the Elf Race with other races, insisting on the purity of the Elf Race. Given the current trend of development, do you think Tana’s policies can continue to be maintained? Although my mother is a princess of Ilanadale, I still have to represent the interests of the Half-elves. The age of purity is over, integration is inevitable. Once the Industrial Age begins in the Otherworld, Ilanadale will be left further and further behind, eventually to be annexed and then exterminated. I’m not opposing Ilanadale; on the contrary, I’m protecting Ilanadale, safeguarding the heritage of my family," Luo’er said.

"It looks like you already know what to say in front of your mother, so I don’t need to worry," Li Si said, shaking his head.

"Don’t worry, even if my mother persuades me, I won’t change my mind. Rather than resisting and then being annihilated, it’s better to embrace and integrate. Pure Elf bloodlines may be wonderful, but they’re not realistic. Our Ancestors imposed limitations on the Elf Race when they created them, it’s just that Tana misinterpreted the intentions of the Ancestors, which led to the situation today," Luo’er said.

"Speaking of which, since Tana is a real goddess and omnipresent, could she influence us?" Li Si asked curiously.

"No," Luo’er shook his head, "Firstly, you’re not from the Otherworld, so she has no right to interfere with you; secondly, you haven’t established a connection, so she has no chance to intervene. Moreover, a true goddess has divinity; otherwise, with all the magical power of the entire Otherworld at her disposal, Tana could have destroyed this world many times over by now."

"Let’s leave it at that. I’ll take everyone back, and you continue your journey to Xia Yue Island to liberate whatever Xiapei Kam is. But remember my requests, Luo’er. First, do not cause conflict on Xia Yue Island; second, do not let Xia Yue Island know your identity. It will be very troublesome," Li Si said.

"I remember," Luo’er nodded.

"Alright, I’m going to take a rest. When you reach Divine Wood Down, you handle it," Li Si said as he walked towards the cabin, rubbing his shoulders.

The airboat flew non-stop day and night along the ridge of the Namijiya Mountain Range, heading south. This distance was not much shorter than from Yazhi City to Divine Wood Down. The advance team took several months to travel southward, but the airboat was much faster, reaching Divine Wood Down in about a week.

The massive airboat slowly descended and docked on the river outside Divine Wood Down. To accommodate the airboat’s takeoff and landing, the Wood Elves set up several berths here and built permanent stone jetties.

The airboat stopped steadily and turned off its anti-gravity engines, with its entire weight pressing down in the water, as the sealed hull supported the weight of the entire vessel.

Coming to Divine Wood Down, not only was Luo’er excited, but Tangmo and Baiyue were even more thrilled because they saw Princess Nina waiting on the open ground even before they landed.

"That woman..." Axia, seeing Princess Nina for the first time, could not help but be impressed by her demeanor.

Princess Nina, having returned to Ilanadale and undergone a period of convalescence, had already regained her graceful and luxurious demeanor. As a Wood Elf Princess, her every move was filled with the elegance unique to nobility.

"Wow, godmother has such good demeanor," Hu Daoke couldn’t help but exclaim as he saw Nina.

"Godmother, she’s your mother?" Hearing his words, Axia couldn’t help but turn her head and look at him with disdain, asking.

"Don’t look at me like that. I already said godmother. She’s the boss’s mother, and I am the boss’s sworn brother, so naturally, she’s my godmother as well," Hu Daoke said.

"She’s Luo’er’s mother!" Hu Daoke’s words indeed shocked Axia. On first seeing Luo’er, she felt he was extraordinary, but she had not expected his mother to have an even more remarkable presence.

"Hmph, surprised, right? Not just that, godmother is also the Princess of Ilanadale!" Hu Daoke boasted proudly.

"Princess... what! You’re saying, Luo’er is the son of the Princess of Ilanadale, the son of the Wood Elf Princess?" Axia could hardly believe her ears, Luo’er always had a congenial, gentle appearance, but his background turned out to be so distinguished.

"Big guy, you’re about to spill the beans. Shut your mouth!" At that moment, Fulajie’er’s voice reached Hu Daoke’s mind while he was still feeling smug. Startled, he quickly glanced at Talis and saw her standing in the distance, staring at the people on the ground. He sighed with relief, breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Anyway, Aunt Axia, you must not tell anyone else about Luo’er’s identity!" Hu Daoke pleaded with Axia.
