Vowing to Break Through Fate's Obstacles

After bidding Elf Queen Laqia farewell, Liu Xiaoxiao turned invisible again and raced into the distance.

The Dark Elf settlement was far from the other branches of the Elf Clan, though it was still within this forest.

Of course, the truth was that all of Elf Star lay on the same continent, within the same forest. It was simply that the forest was densely dotted with rivers and lakes.

Ninety-nine percent of Elf Star's forests were uninhabited by intelligent life. There were only small insect-like creatures, with no medium- or large-sized animals. The Elf Clan's habitat occupied less than one percent of Elf Star's surface.

Liu Xiaoxiao guessed that something must have happened on Elf Star. Either those medium and large animals had died in some disaster, or they had never evolved in the first place, while the Elf Clan had been brought here from other planets by cosmic phenomena such as Spacetime Turbulence and Space Rifts.

Traveling at full speed, Liu Xiaoxiao reached the Dark Elf settlement in less than an hour.

Unlike the Elf Clan's tree houses, the Dark Elves lived in a massive castle, with an open area cleared around it.

Judging by its material, it seemed to be made of stone, though it appeared to have undergone some form of processing and looked exceptionally sturdy.

It must have been reinforced with magical formations, not just technology, Liu Xiaoxiao thought.

Liu Xiaoxiao spread out his Spiritual Power. Through his Mental Detection, he found a mine not far from the castle, seemingly showing signs of development.

Dark Elves looked similar to elves, with the same pointed ears. Their hair and eye colors also varied according to their attributes.

However, their temperaments were distinctly different.

They lacked the Elf Clan's approachable air. All they had was coldness and gloom.
