The sound of wailing accompanied the falling figures, creating splashes on the surface of the lake.

After slaughtering the orc riders from the sky, Ji Chen’s face showed no trace of pity as he turned his gaze towards the evil orc tribe gathered on the shore.

Because you initiated this action against me, don’t be surprised if I respond without holding back.

Calm waves surged on the peaceful lake, sweeping over the terrified eyes of the evil orcs. In an instant, the entire tribe was submerged, leaving behind a muddy and chaotic ground, littered with orc corpses.

Miligas watched this scene in disbelief, deeply shocked.

Was this what it meant to possess epic-tier power?

With his incredible strength, he effortlessly took down thousands of orc riders and wiped out dozens of orc communities.

Miligas was afraid that even the entire fleet of elves couldn’t resist Ji Chen’s overwhelming power.

“Patheia, take the Sea Crystal Wyrm and clean up the area. I hope there are no evil orcs left alive.”

Patheia’s face was filled with respect and admiration as she bowed. “As you wish, my lord.”

With a flap of her wings, Patheia, along with the Sea Crystal Wyrm, began to sweep along the lake shore, delivering a final blow to any surviving orcs.

Miligas finally recovered from his shock, and after a long while, he managed to stammer, “Impressive!”

Ji Chen smiled. In the water, he was nearly invincible, despite being just over level fifty. He was no less powerful than top-tier epic individuals, and if he were in the ocean, he might even surpass them.

The ocean was his greatest asset.

Patheia quickly surveyed the area and confirmed that there was no more danger. She then brought the surviving elf nobles ashore. At this moment, the elven reinforcements, responding to the distress signal from the airship, appeared on the horizon.

The surviving elf nobles stood by the shore, waving towards the sky with expressions of joy, relieved to have escaped the ordeal.

Three squads of a thousand Dragon Eagle Archers descended from the sky, and Miligas approached their leader, an elven military officer, to explain the situation.

Soon, the elven officer approached Ji Chen with a look of awe and respect. He bowed and said, “Lord Ji Chen, thank you for your assistance. We will escort you safely from here.”

Ji Chen nodded slightly, about to board the Sea Crystal Wyrm, but then he noticed some elf nobles approaching. Surprisingly, the leading figure was the elven lady, who now wore an expression of awe rather than her earlier arrogance.

Before learning Ji Chen’s identity, she had thought that her noble status would give her an advantage. However, witnessing Ji Chen effortlessly annihilate thousands of orc riders and destroy dozens of orc tribes with a wave of his hand left her in complete awe, and she dared not show any disrespect.

Could such a strong individual actually be influenced?

The elven lady spoke with a respectful tone.

“Lord Ji Chen, thank you for saving us. If there is anything you need in the future, please don’t hesitate to ask. We will certainly not refuse.”

The other elven nobles nodded in agreement.

Watching these once proud elven nobles now looking obedient, Ji Chen couldn’t help but feel amused. He marveled at the power that could make even the haughty elves bow their heads.

Ji Chen and his group, under the protection of the three squads of Dragon Eagle Archers, took to the skies and flew towards the elven capital.

After a day, they entered the actual territory of the elves. The ground gradually became dotted with dense elven towns and cities, exuding a more civilized atmosphere. Such a concentration of settlements was one of the signs of the strength of the Elven Empire.

However, they didn’t stop at all. Miligas explained that they had received a summons from the Elven Queen, which led to them being granted an uninterrupted journey.

One more day passed, and when they saw the magnificent city standing on the bank of a river in the distance, resembling a heavenly kingdom, Miligas finally breathed a sigh of relief. He turned around, his face filled with pride.

“Lord Ji Chen, that is our capital, the blessed land under the gaze of our Goddess, the place blessed by the divine. It is the Silvermoon Holy City.”

Ji Chen squinted his eyes as he looked into the distance. It was a colossal city entirely white in color. While Maple City had seemed quite large to him, it now appeared like a rural village in comparison.

A river broad enough to fit dozens of krakens wound its way through the city. However, it only managed to pass along one edge of the city. On its banks, vibrant ports were positioned, and ships approached leisurely, akin to a sacred journey, and berthed at the immense harbor, which could hold a thousand ships.

Under the sunlight, the white city was surrounded by not very high but rune-encrusted walls. The field of vision could overlook the city battlements, where a faint protective barrier shimmered, revealing the exquisite houses that were like works of art inside the city.

But the most prominent feature was the colossal tree that stood in the center of the city as if a giant resided within. The tree’s dragon-blood-like canopy covered half the city.

Noticing Ji Chen’s astonished expression, Miligas exuded strong pride and introduced, “That giant tree was brought out from the Goddess’ dwelling by the ancient elves. It grew from the sapling of the Twin Sacred Trees into a Life Ancient Tree.”

“As long as the Life Ancient Tree exists, the elves will forever exist in this world, receiving the Goddess’s gaze and protection.”

Ji Chen nodded in understanding, recalling the Life Tree that had survived in the frozen wilderness and was eventually taken away by the elf Elin. Compared to this towering tree that seemed to touch the sky, that Life Tree appeared quite small.

He wondered where Elin went after taking the Tree of Life.

Perhaps she was here in this White City?

“Lord Ji Chen, flying is not allowed within a ten-mile radius of the Silvermoon Holy City. We can only enter through the city gates on the ground. Let’s descend.”

Ji Chen waved his hand, and the group of Sea Crystal Wyrms slowly landed under the escort of the Thousand Dragon Eagle Archers. They were temporarily placed in a special space opened by spatial magic, which the elves specifically used to accommodate visiting troops.

In theory, once inside the elven territory, bringing an army was not allowed. However, considering Ji Chen’s special status and Ambassador Miligas’s request, they were permitted to arrive outside the Silvermoon Holy City under the protection of the Dragon Eagle Archers.

After securing their troops, a luxurious carriage drawn by four groups of unicorns was already waiting, surrounded by twenty elven knights wearing armor and riding scale horses.

“It seems that the Queen has already received the news of your arrival and sent this carriage to welcome you,” Miligas explained in a low voice.

“Only guests whom Her Majesty deems honorable are allowed to ride in such a four-unicorn carriage, accompanied by twenty royal elven knights as escorts. This shows the importance she attaches to you, and I’m honored to be riding with you.”

Ji Chen nodded in realization, becoming curious about the elven Queen, who held immense power. From boarding the airship to arriving here, it had only been three days. How did the elven Queen know in advance that he had arrived here?

Looking at Miligas’s expression, which seemed entirely unsurprised and even curious, Ji Chen’s curiosity grew.

“Lord Ji Chen, Sir Lainekel, please board the carriage,” Miligas offered, stepping aside and personally opening the carriage door.

As the robed figure of Lainekel approached, the unicorns showed clear signs of resistance, but the coachmen, as if forewarned, quickly calmed them down.

Lainekel fell silent, his eyes betraying complex emotions.

“Sir Lainekel, I will explain to the elven Queen,” Ji Chen gently patted his shoulder.

Lainekel managed a forced smile.

Ji Chen didn’t say anything more; he took a step and boarded the carriage. After both Patheia and Lainekel had entered the carriage, Miligas followed suit, gently closing the doors.

The carriage started moving smoothly, with no bumps or shakes felt inside. Only the changing scenery outside the window and the gaps in the pearl curtains gave any indication that the carriage was moving forward.

As they approached the massive city, the thirty-meter-high city walls gradually came into view. The elves on the road looked at the four-unicom carriage in surprise and quickly stepped aside to make way.

This was no ordinary carriage. The presence of the Double Sacred Tree emblem on the carriage and the twenty fully armed royal knights clearly indicated the distinguished guests inside.

People couldn’t help but wonder who was riding inside.

Not far away, a figure in a robe suddenly lifted her head, watching the passing carriage, her eyes showing a hint of surprise..
