Who Taught Her That Again?

Nila Shun froze where she stood and instinctively took a step back, watching the woman before her, whose flaming clothes flickered between bright and dim, with a wary expression.

"Lord Shen..."

"What... does this... mean?"

Looking utterly confused, Nila Shun turned to Shen Yi beside her and spoke in the awkward Chinese she had only recently learned.

"It's nothing."

"In a sense, she's also one of your people."

"Just a member of your race who has nothing to do with you and whom you've never met."

Shen Yi smiled and rubbed Nila Shun's head.

"What did you mean by that just now? Why is this girl..."

"No!" A trace of astonishment flashed through Xilos's eyes before she warily looked toward Shen Yi and Feimi.

"The aura around her is clearly more than twenty years old, yet her elven aura is as pure as that of a newborn. That's simply impossible!"

"Haven't you seen enough impossible things these past few days?"

"How ignorant. Do you really think my husband's power is something you can comprehend?"

Feimi snorted coldly, highly pleased by Xilos and Kolun's reactions.

As a former creature of the Shadow World, Feimi understood better than Wen Ke'er what a brand-new elf—one born without an Elf Tree or natural aura—signified!

And at this moment, Xilos and Kolun's reactions upon seeing Nila Shun indeed matched Feimi's understanding of the Elf race.

"How was this done?!"

"Her aura is ice-aspected too, almost exactly the same as mine!"

Kolun's eyes were entirely drawn to Nila Shun's pale blue eyes.

He did not know how long it had been since
