In the square outside the palace, all the priests and elders stood on both sides, looking anxiously at the stairs at the end of the square. Time was passing by, but the king they respected the most had not yet appeared.

Ever since Nalan Shu refused to marry Saint Darian two days ago and deprived her of this identity, everyone who knew about it was in panic.

Moreover, just this morning, the Holy Tree Elf King Nalan Shu suddenly announced that he was leaving the royal capital to enter the "Holy Land" and was preparing to stay there for a long time.

The king was unwilling to marry the saint, and at the same time he suddenly wanted to leave. These two sudden changes really deeply stimulated these priests and elders, and they couldn't help but think in a very bad direction.

Is their king ready to abandon them?

This conjecture is not unreasonable, because the king is a human (even though he appears in the form of an elf for more than half of the time, Nalan Shu himself has always emphasized that he is a human), has no roots in the elves, and has no influence on Nalan Shu. After the concubine was established, she had no intention at all and could even be said to be somewhat resistant.

If Nalan Shu was willing to leave his heirs and bloodline in the royal court, then everything would be okay; but now the king has no such intention, and suddenly announced his departure... These are very much like the precursors of the king abandoning them. .

At this moment, the longer they waited, the more painful it became. Everyone present had their hearts in their throats, fearing that their worries would come true.

But Nalan Shu didn't keep them waiting too long. About ten minutes later, Nalan Shu, in the form of an elf, took the hand of another elf girl they didn't know at all and walked in calmly.

Edward and Darian, who were following the two of them, looked serious, but they still secretly glanced at the dumbfounded girl held by Nalan from time to time.

They didn't know this girl, and they didn't know what their king was going to do.

After some tedious ceremonial worship, Nalan Shu pulled the ignorant elf girl closer and announced to Edward and others: "These two are the saintly ladies I selected, Fina and Fei. Ya."

"Do you have any objections to this king's decision?"

"I have no objections."

Without much thought, Edward and the others, who were kneeling on the ground, subconsciously gave Nalan Shu the most satisfactory answer.

"Okay, okay, you're all up. Doesn't your feet hurt when you kneel?" Nalan Shu waved lazily, asking those kneeling below to stand up.

The priests and elders stood upright and lowered their heads, but the peripheral vision in their eyes kept glancing at the newly appointed "Her Majesty the Holy Maiden" standing next to the king. They felt very complicated.

In fact, not long ago, they had selected dozens of young and beautiful priests or ladies from the old royal family and nobles. Taking advantage of this last meeting with the king, they introduced them to Nalan Shu and presented them to the king. I begged hard, hoping to persuade the King of Earthquake to bring the girls he liked into the Holy Land.

In fact, this is a very aggressive and rude approach, but these priests and elders have already planned to go all out. Even if they may get blood splattered on the spot because of angering the king, at least one girl must be able to enter the holy land with the king, so that the king can His bloodline spread, and the king was tied to death in the royal court of the holy tree.

But they never expected that their king would actually choose his own "holy girl" for him.

However, although they did not dare to object to the king's move, they still could not understand it.

First of all, there was only one saint in front of them, but the king called them "them", which made them very puzzled.

Secondly, judging from the simple and light-colored clothes of this girl, she should be a commoner; although her unmodified appearance is still pretty, she is far less beautiful than the noble ladies in the royal capital.

They couldn't figure out why their king chose this ordinary girl to be the saint.

However, at least the king is willing to select a saint from among his tribe, and she should be able to take root in the Holy Tree Court in the future, and there is no need to worry too much about being abandoned by the king.

"Edward, Darien."

"I'm here."

Edward and Darien knelt down again and answered respectfully.

"During my absence, all matters in the royal court will be left to you, just like it was before I ascended the throne."

To be honest, Nalan Shu was the kind of person who completely ignored political affairs after he was crowned king. His Majesty the Elf King, who was described by his subjects as "wise, powerful, perceptive and good at making judgments", understood the principle that "professional matters should be left to professionals". , leaving everything in the hands of his right-hand men, Darian and Edward, and acting as a hands-off shopkeeper.

Of course, no one will criticize Nalan Shu for his inaction, because even if he does nothing and sleeps and eats when he is full like a rice worm, as long as he is willing to sit on the throne and accept the suffering of all people Worship, then he is the most perfect king in everyone's eyes.

After explaining the matter, he took out Gonkunkovo ​​from his storage space and looked at the confused Fina and Fiya with a smile.

"Your Majesty the Holy Maiden, I will ask you to keep Gonkunkovo ​​safe from now on."

Fina, who was taking control of her body, cautiously stretched out her hand to the dragon-hunting bow.

However, she who originally thought she couldn't handle Gonkunkovo ​​actually found that she had safely taken over the magical bow.

"Well……"

Finaphia looked at Gonkunkovo, which was as smooth as white jade in her hand, and was extremely shocked.

It is said that only those recognized by the World Tree can pick up the divine bow, but today, these two unknown people are holding it in their hands.

As for the other people, the priests and elders who had not originally understood Nalan Shu's approach, when they saw Fina picking up Gangkunkovo ​​steadily, the last trace of doubt in their hearts completely disappeared.

Now that the World Tree has recognized the king's decision, what else do they have to say?

The soaring green light beam pointed straight into the sky, and the figures of Nalan Shu and Fina disappeared from the entrance of the "Holy Land". Edward, Darian and others knelt on the ground and respectfully bid farewell to the Elf King of the Holy Tree, whose term of office had not yet expired for one year.

Wang did not want them to explain the reason for leaving or how long he would stay away. But it doesn't matter, all the elves can still clearly feel that their "connection" with the king is still as close.

Even though they may not be in the same world as the king, as long as that belief does not collapse, the Holy Tree Elves will always be Nalan Shu's strongest anchor - the Holy Tree Elf King Nalan Shu will never leave.

In the "Holy Land", Nalan Shu took Fina's hand and led her towards the World Tree not far away; while the latter was hanging down, her mind already in a state of confusion.

"Huh? Finaphia, what's wrong with you?"

Noticing something was wrong with the sisters, Nalan Shu stopped and asked with concern.

"King...Your Majesty...I..." Fina did not dare to raise her head to look directly at her king, and whispered: "How do you know...our names?"

"And, can you...can you see my sister?"

Seeing Fina's restrained look, Nalan Shu loosened his hold on Fina's hand, patted his forehead and said, "Oh, I almost forgot to change my appearance, I'm sorry."

"Huh?" Fina raised her head at a loss and looked at the somewhat annoyed Elf Queen, obviously not understanding what she was talking about.

Suddenly, the next scene made Finaphia's pupils shrink in shock.

Countless gray light particles appeared out of thin air, enveloping the beautiful elf girl in front of her. When the gray light dissipated, the human "family" that Finaphia was familiar with actually appeared in front of her.

"Is...is it you?"

Fina and Fiya covered their mouths and looked at the smiling young man in front of them. The illusion that only existed in dreams filled every corner of their consciousness.

"Hey, don't you recognize me, an old acquaintance?" Nalan Shu used a rare teasing tone to tease the bewildered sisters in front of him, and said the words he had not said to them for a long time:

"Finaphia, I'm back."
