190 Wake Up

Looking at King Yuen before him, and sensing the firmness and despair in his words, Yuan Chen fell into a long silence.

Yuan Chen could sense just how desperate the King Yuen was right now...

Yes, all the most renowned and intelligent scholars in Ixialia worked tirelessly day and night, but what was the result?

And what was the final result? All it left was an irresponsible corpse for the ancestor who awoke.

"It's hopeless."

Let alone King Yuen, anyone would feel a sense of despair upon hearing such a message from the person considered the last hope, wouldn't they?

Upon realizing this, Yuan Chen did not answer immediately, but after a long silence, he asked:

"Why me? Shouldn't Sem Sera be more suitable than me, both in terms of prestige and status?"

Upon hearing Yuan Chen's words, King Yuen chuckled softly.

The aged face seemed to have heard something interesting. He glanced at Yuan Chen, then looked into the distance and said;

"Sem Thermos... is my teacher, I know him very well."

King Yuen

"He's like me, a stubborn old man who can be quite exasperating at times. Don't worry, when he saw us come out, he had already more or less guessed the outcome... Not just him, but other scholars as well."

"They're not fools; they're the wisest people in the world. They can sense... or perhaps you should know something about it too."

King Yuen turned his gaze to Yuan Chen and said:

"Before the Golden Army... or rather, before the nine Ascended, even Ixialia could only put up a death throes."

"Then why Qiyana?"

Yuan Chen asked again, "Didn't you think Qiyana has always been a bit unreliable?"

"That's what I hope for. I hope she can lead Ixialia composure and gentleness."

King Yuen said in a sorrowful voice:

"But I may not have that chance... Qiyana always chooses the path less traveled, the path strewn with thorns."

"But only in this way will someone remember the suffering Ixialia endured forever... and only Qiyana is willing to avenge Ixialia!"

"I wouldn't feel at ease if she were alone."

"But things are different now."

King Yuen looked at Yuan Chen again. "This time, with you here... I can feel that Qiyana trusts you immensely, even more than she trusts me."

"How I wish you could be with Qiyana forever... At least, when Qiyana makes the wrong choice, there would be someone to advise her, teaching her, who never bows her head, to be tactful and compromise."

"But I know that's impossible... the journal has already foreshadowed your fate."

"Therefore, at least in the future, whenever Qiyana does something out of line, please be sure to put down what you're doing and stop her immediately."

"After we die, the only person she will trust is you."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Chen felt a tightness in his chest, as if something was blocking it.

Just as Yuan Chen was lamenting the tragic fate of King Yuen, a cold and dissatisfied voice came from the side:

"My father, do you really think I can't do anything without Yuan Chen?"

Hearing the discontented voice, Yuan Chen was slightly taken aback. He then looked behind him and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes when he saw Qiyana.

They exchanged a glance with King Yuen. In the current situation, did the two of them pay attention to Qiyana's words? Instead, they noticed Qiyana herself first.

It's important to know that after taking the Uroa's Elixir, Qiyana fell into a long slumber due to the World Rune aura within the potion.

Unlike ordinary people, who often need special external forces to gain extraordinary power and become "Epic Class," ordinary people often need special external forces.

For example, Jax gained a long life through the Eternal Flame in the Light of Icathia, and through the nourishment of the Light of Icathia, he mastered his own extraordinary power called "Chi," awakening the Epic Class "War God."

Yuan Chen, Nila, and Nedeli are also examples. The first two gained supernatural powers because of Oshirresh's power.

Nila wasn't entirely sure, but Yuan Chen's ability to manipulate the Flowing Water with ease was undoubtedly due to Oshirresh's power.

Nedeli was the luckiest of them all.

Not only did they gain the power of the Azure Guardian Dragon, but they also did not need to pay a price for it; they only needed to maintain the operation of order to freely control this power.

But Qiyana... is different from everyone else.

When Qiyana first met Yuan Chen, there was already Epic Class called "Great Elementalist".

He simply hadn't awakened his powers yet; he was a chosen one, destined to become the greatest elemental mage in history.

Once you awaken to this profession.

Now, with the enhancement from the Uroa's Elixir, Qiyana's rank Great Elementalist has been elevated to the legendary quality of "Elemental Lord" without her awakening.

Its inherent power goes without saying, but let's talk about the cost...

Qiyana slept for over a month just to allow her body to adjust to the invigorating power.

From the moment she started taking the medication until the Dark Descendant Crystal was fully analyzed, Qiyana remained in a deep sleep.

In other words, Qiyana's vital signs and Yuan Chen's reconnaissance techniques showed no abnormalities.

Otherwise, if it were someone with limited vision, Qiyana would probably be buried in a coffin by now.

And now, Qiyana has unexpectedly appeared in the courtyard.

Compared to her previous appearance, Qiyana's current appearance has changed significantly, if not drastically.

The most noticeable difference is that Qiyana's facial features have opened up.

Compared to her previous strong but slightly immature baby face, Qiyana now has beautiful features and looks like a complete adult.

As a result, her figure became exceptionally slender and curvaceous.

Previously, Yuan Chen would always mistake Qiyana for a child because of her appearance.

But now, without much change in skin color, Qiyana's appearance and temperament are closer to that of a mature, sophisticated woman.

After recognizing Qiyana, King Yuen exclaimed in surprise:

"When did you wake up? When did you get here? Why are there no responses from the surrounding spells?"

Yuan Chen knew that this involved the abilities of the Elemental Lord.
