Chapter 224 Mother Tree
Chapter 224 Mother Tree
While the few people were talking, the Great Elder was just stomping on the floor boredly.
He is only responsible for eliminating the threat posed by the elves, and what happens outside has nothing to do with him.
After waiting for several people to finish speaking, he finally said, "Are you done? If you are, come with me."
"Everyone?" Jiang Liujing turned his head to look at him.
The Great Elder shook his head, raised his right index finger, first pointed at Jiang Liujing, then moved it to Chi next to him, "Only you, and you."
"You two, come with me to the tribe. The others can just wait here." He looked at Alia as he spoke, "Alia, you will be responsible for entertaining them."
Alia lowered her head and replied respectfully, "Yes."
In the elves, the Great Elder is second only to the clan leader. In fact, because he lives much longer than the clan leader, even the clan leader often has to listen to him.
Jiang Liujing and Chi exchanged a glance and said to the others, "Then you wait for us here first."
Mo Ya sighed in frustration and muttered unconvincedly, "How come Chi was invited but we weren't? Don't we seem more gentle and friendly?"
Mo Ya could understand Jiang Liujing being accepted into the elves' ranks; after all, Jiang Liujing had always been popular with the mythical beasts. But what was going on with Chi? Had the elves suddenly changed their tastes and now preferred those who looked cold and fierce?
No one could answer his question. Jiang Liujing and Chi had already followed the Great Elder away.
None of the three were slow, and in the blink of an eye even their backs could not be found.
Alia smiled as she walked over to the remaining three people, extending her hand to them. "Guests, would you like to join me in visiting the Elven Tree House? We have many special teas here."
"Or," she pointed to the ground, where Taichi's broken head, stained with bright red blood, still lay in the mud.
She smiled and said, "You guys want to collect the body of your companion first?"
-
With a whoosh, the quiet grass leaves were suddenly bent by the strong wind, and their entire bodies fell completely to the ground.
In the direction pointed by the tip of its blade, three figures turned into streams of light, almost impossible to capture with the naked eye.
Jiang Liujing rarely focused on driving his magic power. The wind wrapped around his body, making him very light. In the blink of an eye, he flew forward hundreds of meters.
This speed was already far ahead among magicians of the same level, but at this moment, he was still feeling a little tired as he followed the two people beside him.
The Great Elder seemed to be intentionally testing his speed limit, running slowly at first and then continuously speeding up.
Jiang Liujing thought that this elf's true strength was unfathomable. Even though he was tired from running, the Great Elder still had an extremely relaxed expression.
"Is the mother tree so far away?" After running for another ten minutes, Jiang Liujing couldn't help but ask.
He looked at the surrounding scenery. Perhaps because the plant species in this area were too similar, Jiang Liujing always felt a sense of déjà vu.
Chi followed beside him, his expression remained unchanged since the start, and his speed always kept pace with Jiang Liujing.
Jiang Liujing became anxious while running because of Chi. Even he couldn't help feeling depressed when he was close to his limit but was easily caught up by others.
It has to be said that the double shadow of speed and physical strength that Chi has brought to Jiang Liujing since childhood has not diminished at all.
"Not far," the elder's calm, aged voice swished towards them like a silk ribbon in the wind, "I'm deliberately leading you in circles."
Jiang Liujing: "..."
You are so honest!
The running footsteps suddenly came to an emergency stop.
Although he was the slowest among the three, he was like a key barrier on the track. Once he stopped, everyone else stopped.
The black-haired boy didn't say anything after he stopped. He just half lowered his head, his eyes staring quietly at the elder in the front.
The Great Elder turned around and saw the expression on his face. His originally stern expression suddenly became a little unbearable. He turned his head and coughed, "I just wanted to test your ability. This time, we won't take a detour and will be here soon."
"Trust me." He looked serious this time and his words sounded sincere.
Jiang Liujing didn't say anything, but every subtle muscle change on his facial features created the same expression - it was not believable at all.
Based on his rich experience in dealing with Sang Mo, he knew that this serious-looking old man was actually the one most capable of causing trouble.
Just as he was about to say something, a huge wave of magical power suddenly appeared in the air.
The three of them were stunned at the same time, and the Great Elder's ice-blue pupils suddenly narrowed as if he had noticed something.
The next second, a huge golden magic circle appeared under their feet, accompanied by a burst of brilliant golden light that suddenly filled the air, and the figures of the three people disappeared into the air at the same time.
Damp.
The dizziness from traveling through space had not yet faded from my mind, but the moist feeling of the cool water vapor hitting my cheeks had already come up.
The long eyelashes trembled slightly, like the force of a butterfly's wings flapping, casting a faint shadow on the cheek that was so white that it was almost transparent.
The eyelashes slowly opened, revealing a pair of radiant eyes.
Jiang Liujing lay on the ground, motionless, with his eyes open looking up at the sky.
Before his eyes was a misty pale silver, enveloped in deeper layers of blue, and some shining golden light like molten gold.
The thick blocks of color are blurry and dizzy, and it takes a long time for them to gradually become clear in the vision and show their true appearance.
It turned out to be a dome made of leaves.
It looks like the crowns of countless towering trees are connected together, until you look down along the thick trunks, you will find that all the lush branches and leaves belong to the same tree.
Jiang Liujing turned his head slightly and saw two people lying not far away, who had already climbed up.
The Great Elder hurriedly brushed off the dust on his body. Elves are a very clean race and cannot tolerate any dirt on their bodies.
Chi Ze walked towards him and pulled him up from the ground.
The boy's body was limp and weak. Chi felt like he had picked up a cotton doll from the ground. He couldn't help but look at him twice and asked in a low voice, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Jiang Liujing shook his head and whispered, "I feel a little dizzy."
He had never felt so dizzy when entering the teleportation arrays of various countries before. It was like being thrown into a washing machine and rolled back and forth for a long time.
After being pulled up, he leaned lazily against Chi, letting the powerful tall crutch support him and looking up.
Without the Great Elder's introduction, Jiang Liujing could guess that the tree in front of him was the mother tree of the elves.
But it was not quite the same as he imagined, because the leaf token that Uriel gave him was golden, and he always thought that the mother tree was also a golden tree.
However, upon seeing it in person, I discovered that most of its leaves were a clear, transparent blue like lake water, with streaks of light shimmering on the surface. Only a small number of leaves deep inside were a brilliant gold, hidden among the numerous blues, like shining meteors in the night sky.
