Chapter 1111: Chapter 1104: Human Emotions

"So, you’re pushing forward with the Elf Planet Project, to have Half-elves appear on Earth," Luo’er asked.

"Exactly, with your current medical technology on Earth, this should be feasible. After all, each of you is a subspecies, and if Earth’s medical technology hadn’t made significant breakthroughs, I’m afraid none of you would even have had the chance to be born," Xia Yue said, looking at everyone.

"But is this really appropriate?" Cheng Ziang asked.

"What’s inappropriate?" Xia Yue inquired.

"I mean, there are still many people in this world who haven’t been integrated, to let Earthlings enjoy the heritage of the Ancestors so soon, I fear..." Cheng Ziang explained.

"Many Half-elves have already been born in this world, so there are already guarantees for their retention. The only thing that needs to change is the discrimination and prejudice of those on this world who have been blinded by Tana. So don’t worry about them, by the time they start to accept Elves, these numbers will also ensure they reach their goals."

"Moreover, the main point," Xia Yue continued, "is that this world is still very backward, in what you call the feudal age, a time when technological development won’t be substantial. Even with Earthlings tirelessly promoting technological advances in this world, it won’t experience any significant changes within a hundred years or so, and thus I have no interest in exerting effort in vain."

Hearing her words, Luo’er and Cheng Ziang exchanged glances. He took a deep breath, then said seriously, "This matter might require a discussion with our higher-ups."

"I’ve already guessed what your superiors are thinking, which is why I offered to exchange favors. You’ve acquired that storage device, but finding a way to open the Otherworld Gate through a stage play won’t be easy, at the very least not within ten years, so you won’t make any constructive findings. As long as you agree to my terms, I can help you activate the Otherworld Gate immediately," Xia Yue said indifferently.

"That would be perfect," Luo’er said with a joyful expression, then turned to Cheng Ziang, eagerly saying, "If you can open the Otherworld Gate, the headquarters will certainly agree to your demands."

"So you better start preparing quickly, as we set sail at dawn tomorrow to the Continent, and then head straight to Lipei," Xia Yue said.

"Alright, we’ll begin preparations immediately!" Luo’er nodded enthusiastically.

He originally wanted to send a message to headquarters, but it seemed that Tana’s blockade on Xia Yue Island also restricted the freedom of magical messengers, so he had to give up for now and wait until they left Xia Yue Island to decide.

Regardless, Luo’er needed to arrange for an Airboat to come pick them up directly. After all, Xia Yue was the most crucial hope for opening the Otherworld Gate, and if headquarters could secure her cooperation, it would undoubtedly enhance their influence in the Otherworld.

It must be understood that Xiapei Kam’s comeback was meant to replace Tana, and if Tana were indeed replaced, it would mean the world was entirely within Xiapei Kam’s grasp. Their collaboration with Xiapei Kam would undoubtedly mean holding onto the world’s most formidable thigh.

By the next morning, many Night Elves in Antenisivia were eagerly waiting to catch a glimpse of Xia Yue, but she had already decided to leave Xia Yue Island for the Continent.

Although Falei, the High Priest, was very reluctant, she followed Xia Yue’s orders and prepared a departure vessel for her and the Advance Team.

The dock was crowded with Night Elves, and the harbour was packed with ships. Under the reluctant gazes of many Elves, Xia Yue boarded the ship and set sail from the harbor.

"You really do look like a celebrity, don’t you?" Luo’er, leaning against the ship’s side, couldn’t help joking.

"Heh," Xia Yue glanced at the frantic crowd of Night Elves in the distance and shook her head with a smile, "To them, I am their faith."

"If you leave Xia Yue Island, won’t their faith collapse?" Luo’er asked.

"I am a god of this world; how could I possibly confine myself to this small island. Besides, I have my own responsibilities to fulfill, not just to be a mascot for everyone to worship," Xia Yue said, leaning against the ship’s railing and supporting her cheek.

This was also a Blaiqi merchant ship, but not because the Night Elves didn’t have their own ship. Rather, if the ship were manned by Night Elves, the ship pretty much wouldn’t be able to leave, as these Night Elves wouldn’t miss the chance to get close to Xia Yue.

After setting sail and leaving the port, the Blaiqi captain came over and respectfully asked, "My lord, what course shall we set next?"

"Set sail at full mast, directly through the strait, to the opposite shore," Xia Yue said tersely, while lifting her palm.

Accompanying her gesture, a westerly breeze suddenly sprang up over the sea, clearly Xia Yue’s doing.

"But, if we go directly through the strait, the creatures in the sea..." The captain said, his eyes widening in hesitation.

"Don’t worry, with me here, they wouldn’t dare to cause trouble!" Xia Yue said indifferently.

"This..." The captain turned his gaze towards Luo’er.

"Do as she says, Captain," Luo’er said, "This is Xia Yue Island’s most powerful forbidden curse mage, with her here, the Leviathan would definitely not dare to oppose us."

"Oh, oh, oh, that’s good, that’s good!" The captain said, his look towards Xia Yue also turning into one of respect.

Luo’er did not tell the captain directly that Xia Yue was a deity of the Night Elves, but rather used the more secular term "forbidden curse mage" to help the captain understand her power. In the minds of most, a forbidden curse mage was the strongest in the world, but clearly, Xia Yue was incomparably higher than these mages.

"It seems you know how to deal with people," Xia Yue said with a smile in praise.

"You flatter me, over the years, in wandering from place to place, I’ve learned how to speak the language of both men and ghosts," Luo’er said with a faint smile.

When Xia Yue communicated with the Advance Team, she mostly used Chinese. This was obviously intentional, for it allowed her to better integrate into the team’s atmosphere by using her race’s language in a foreign land.

"I’m a bit worried," Luo’er furrowed his brow after a moment of silence and turned to Xia Yue, asking again, "What should we do to counter Tana’s attacks using weather and Leviathan if we leave Xia Yue Island?"

"You’re thinking too much," Xia Yue said lightly, "I have told you before, I have the authority to counter Tana, and she wouldn’t dare to oppose me, so she would definitely stay far away."

"But Tana is intangible after all, and you now..." Luo’er said hesitantly.

"This body is just a temporary dwelling for me; you needn’t worry about me suffering from Magic Power Erosion from overusing my power, as this body is utterly immune to it. Consider that I could cure the Magic Power Erosion within you, let alone within myself," Xia Yue said, fixing her gaze on her own hand.

"So you mean, you can leave this body at any time?" Luo’er asked.

"As soon as I leave Xia Yue Island, I can leave this body at any time, so you don’t need to worry that this body will cause a decrease in my power, that’s not going to happen," Xia Yue said.

"In that case, once you get to the Continent, why not directly fly to discuss the Elf Planet Project with the headquarters, instead of slowly heading north with us?" Luo’er asked, puzzled.

"How should I put it," Xia Yue sighed, her eyes still not leaving her fingers, "I have wandered the world for thousands of years, and for the first time, I have my own body, for the first time, I can experience the things of the world as a human. So I want to feel the emotions of the human world, and I want to try to understand why Tana would willingly defy the will of the Ancestors to protect the Elf Race according to her own understanding."

"You want to experience more human emotions?" Luo’er asked, without betraying any emotion.

"Yes," Xia Yue nodded candidly.

"But if you also possess human emotions, won’t you become like Tana?" Luo’er asked with concern.

"The biggest difference between Tana and me is that I’m resolute, while she’s weak. From our birth, she has always been weak, not willing to regard herself as a true deity, but as an adjunct to the Ancestors. This actually goes against the Ancestors’ principle of independence of personality; they don’t need servants, but deities who possess personhood like themselves," Xia Yue explained.
