The Elves' and Dwarves' Envoys (Part 1)

"Oh right, let's hurry up and get out of here. Someone's still waiting for me outside." Issui remembered that Xiliya was still outside.

"Master, that person was a Demigod, right? I saw her walk away looking dejected," Leins said slowly. "How could that be? Why would she leave without saying goodbye? She should have been waiting for me to go back together. Could it be? Yes, she must have seen me swallowed by you and thought I was finished, so to preserve her strength, she had to go back alone. No, quick, let's catch up with her," Issui said.

"Yes, Master, I'll take you with me. You can sit on my back." As he spoke, Leins' body gradually shrank, becoming only a little over three meters tall and over five meters long, making him perfectly suited for riding.

"Haha, great! I didn't expect you to shrink like that. That's wonderful! You should be able to catch up with her speed without any problem." Issui Shui laughed and sat on Leins's tiger back.

"Sit still, I'm about to move."

Leins gave a warning, then leaped into the air, landing in mid-air and running towards the outside of the valley. It was as if there was a path in the void; Leins wasn't worried about falling at all, as if he had wings on his back.

Sitting on Lein's back, Issui felt incredibly comfortable. It was like being a legendary immortal, riding a steed through the air. Leins's appearance was also quite impressive—a lion's head, a tiger's body, and four fiery hooves. He was a very cool mount to show off.

Leins moved with incredible speed, the green hills and clear waters rushing past in Issui's sight. Sitting on Leins' back, Issui felt no discomfort whatsoever, not even a slight swaying. "What a great mount," he thought. "Ah, good luck is just something else. Even my mount is God Level expert. Who can beat me?"

"What?"

Celia suddenly turned around and looked back. The Fiery Lion-Tiger, Ryan Ryans?! Why was it chasing after us? Was it trying to wipe us out? Damn it! I need to speed up!

Xiliya was about to speed up her escape from Leins' pursuit when she suddenly realized, "Wait a minute, why can't I sense any killing intent?"

"Xiliya, stop! It's me! I'm not dead!" Issui, sitting on Leins' back, shouted as she saw Xiliya flying rapidly through the air ahead.

"?"

Upon hearing Issui's words, Xiliya trembled and stopped, looking back hopefully. Issui was sitting on the back of a monster with a lion's head, a tiger's body, and golden flames under its feet, grinning.

How could this be? How could he be sitting on Leins' back? This can't be real. He was eaten by Leins, but not only did he come back to life, he's using Leins as a mount. This is too much of a joke! Xiliya couldn't help but pat her head. She must be missing him so much that she's hallucinating.

Seeing Xiliya's incredulous expression, Yi Issui found her normal. If she acted as if it were expected, he would find something strange. Think about it, no normal person would believe what they were seeing. Who knew Issui possessed such an overpowered and abnormal skill as the Ice Soul Seal?

"It's me, Xiliya. Don't doubt it. Go back first, and I'll tell you the situation later. Now, the Blazing Liger, Leins, is my subordinate, so don't be nervous." Issui rode Leins to Xiliya and said.

"What?" Hearing Issui confirm it himself, Xiliya felt as if she had been hit hard on the head with a hammer. Was this really believable?

"Alright, our plan has succeeded this time. It's time to go back. Let's go." Issui patted Xiliya on the shoulder and ordered Leins to keep walking forward without stopping.

Xiliya can't understand him at all now. The more you spend with him, the more mysterious you find about him. Forget it, it's better not to think about it anymore.

Following Issui, Xiliya flew towards the Radiance Kingdom...

Emerging from the dense jungle, a group of people dressed in various styles emerged. They split into two groups. The group on the left resembled humans, but the men and women were all handsome and beautiful, with pointed ears, green hair, and green clothing. Behind them were longbows over a meter long, and quivers full of arrows hung at their waists. The group on the right consisted of dwarfs, only about a meter tall, with some only 1.2 or 1.3 meters tall. Most had long brown or fiery red beards and carried axes or hammers at their waists.

"Flavi, why are you the one who came to the human kingdom this time? Where is your brother Larius?" the leading dwarf said to the leading elf woman.

"Yes, my brother is currently undergoing a breakthrough and has reached the most crucial moment. If he succeeds, our elves will have one more Demigod expert. Are you still lingering in the Legendary stage? Dwarves are really getting worse and worse," the elven girl said calmly.

"Hmph? I doubt he'll succeed. Breaking through to a higher level without accumulating enough energy? Isn't that a bit too arrogant?" The dwarf curled his lip, ignoring the elven woman's mockery.

"I think you're going to be disappointed. Mother has given my brother a cup of the Fountain of Life, which is more than enough energy. He will definitely succeed in breaking through this time," the elven woman said confidently.

The dwarf looked at the elven woman in astonishment and said, "How could this be? How much Life Spring Water does the Tree of Life produce in a year? How could Larius have obtained a cup of Life Spring Water? This is absurd! You know, Life Spring Water is used to nurture Elemental Elf. How could your mother make such a decision?"

"Hmph? I might as well tell you, my Elemental Elf no longer needs the Fountain of Life to enhance its power. Because... because it has already achieved godhood!" Flavi said confidently and arrogantly.

"What? You weren't talking about her..."

"Seriously injured, huh? That was just a trick to deceive those magical beasts. Elemental Elf aren't so easily injured. Last time, when fighting that Demigod magical beast, the Elemental Elf only pretended to be injured, which made those God Level magical beasts lower their guard. The glory of the elves is about to arrive. One God Level Elemental Elf is comparable to two God Level magical beasts. As long as the Elf Clan gains another God Level expert, we won't have to fear those filthy magical beasts anymore," Flavi said with a faint smile.

"Hmph, congratulations then. I didn't expect you to have been hiding so well. But we dwarves are not so simple either. Our enemy god Moradin, has awakened from his slumber, and the dwarves now have two God Level experts stationed here." The dwarf said confidently.

"Oh, I see. I didn't expect the sleeping God of Dwarves to have awakened. But the Elemental Elf seem to be much more powerful than him," Flavi said proudly.

"Hmph!" Although the dwarf disliked Flavi's words, he did not refute them, clearly knowing that the Elemental Elf were far more powerful than the God of Dwarves Moradin he mentioned.

"Yagansi, do you think the words of the human messenger are credible?" Flavi asked, changing the subject.

"I think it's true, otherwise humans wouldn't be so bold as to come to us and say they want to destroy the God Level magical beast together. The fact that these cowards are so confident must mean that the divine child they're talking about has descended." After thinking for a while, Yagansi shared his thoughts.

"Yes, that's what my mother thinks too. The reason I was chosen to be the elven envoy to the humans this time was because I volunteered. I want to see what this so-called divine child of humans is like. If he does have God Level power, then our chances of defeating the demon beast God Level powerhouse together with them will be much greater." Flavi nodded.

"Alright, let's hurry on our way. At this pace, we should reach Blue Mountain City in the Radiance Kingdom by tonight. If we're too slow, our human friends will get angry." Yagansi said, leading the dwarves behind him to quicken their pace.

At dusk.

Riding on Leins and Xiliya, Issui flew on and on, finally arriving at Blue Mountain City before nightfall.

When the soldiers on the city wall saw that the Divine Child and the Demigod Xiliya had returned at the same time, they immediately opened the city gate and invited them in.

After entering Blue Mountain City, Issui, Xiliya, and Leins headed straight for the city lord's mansion.

Shortly after Issui and his group arrived, two more groups arrived outside Blue Mountain City. They were naturally the elven delegation led by Flavi and the dwarven delegation led by Yagansi.

"We are envoys from the continents of the elves and dwarves, invited by our human leader to come and negotiate. Please Gate of Opening and let us in," Yagansi said, looking up at the soldiers on the city wall.

"So you are envoys from the Elf Clan and Dwarf Clan. Please come in quickly. The city lord has already given instructions that once you arrive, I will lead you to the city lord's mansion." A warrior fully clad in iron armor stepped out from the city wall and spoke to the elves and dwarves below, ordering the soldiers to open the city wall.

Upon entering Blue Mountain City, the elf and dwarf envoys were led by armored warriors towards the city lord's mansion.

"Haha, as expected, the Divine Child has succeeded again! I always believed that the Divine Child's strength was incomparably powerful. Even the Blazing Liger Leins was defeated by you. By the way, what is the monster next to Your Highness the Divine Child?" Upon hearing the news of Issui's return, Krasil hurriedly came to the entrance of the city lord's mansion to wait for Issui. However, when he saw Leins next to Issui, he was puzzled. What was this thing? Wasn't it a magical beast? How come it was following the Divine Child?

"Oh, so this is the Blazing Liger Leins you mentioned," Issui said, patting Leins's body.

"What? How come..." Krasil was even more confused, and he looked to Xiliya for help.

Xiliya did not respond to Krasil's request, but instead turned her attention to Issui.

"Don't worry, I've already tamed Leins and made him my mount. Demon Clan's no longer that God Level demon beast, the Blazing Liger. Alright, bring up some food, we're all hungry." Issui patted Krasil on the shoulder and walked into the city lord's mansion, heading straight for the guest room in the backyard. When she returned, she needed to let Little Haku Haku know she was safe and sound, so she wouldn't worry too much.
