The Vanished Generations

Chaos Empire.

Li Heng had swept through the land in a bloodbath, but after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find where 009 and the others had kept their crowns.

"What exactly is suppressing the spread of the red mist?"

Li Heng looked around. He had a convenient way to find the crown: spread his body outwards, and the area where the red mist spread would be the area he could see.

By permeating every corner with the red mist, finding the crown shouldn't be too difficult.

The problem is that Li Heng cannot spread the red mist here, as if something is inhibiting its spread.

Li Heng searched around and suddenly saw a pillar.

There was a glowing yellow mark on the pillar, the same mark that priests and believers wore on their foreheads.

Li Heng shattered the pillar with a single punch, and the moment the pillar broke, part of his red mist successfully spread out.

But that's only a part.

Li Heng turned his head and discovered that all the buildings here had those glowing yellow marks.

"You've prepared very thoroughly. Did you anticipate that I would attack you directly, or was it simply a matter of being prepared?"

"Fine, let's smash them all then."

Eastern Continent, Elf Empire.

The Golden King's army launched a full-scale assault, but suffered a humiliating defeat in their first battle.

The Golden King has been gone for many years, but now he has regrouped, and the level of the army he has assembled in such a short time is truly worrying.

The Elf Empire's strength has undergone a qualitative change compared to before, and this development left Wei Jiu feeling somewhat disappointed.

"Not to mention when we can take it down, given the current situation, it's hard to say whether we can even win. But if I can kill the Elf King..."

As Wei Jiu muttered to himself, he suddenly turned his gaze to Long Xi, who was leaning against the wall with a book in her hands.

They are now inside a makeshift bunker set up by the desert army.

Long Xi, strictly speaking, should be Martial Emperor Long Chen's aunt, and should be called the Grand Princess.

Including the other descendants of the Dragon God, their seniority should be above that of Martial Emperor Long Chen, but in fact, these people all bowed down to Long Chen and did not count their seniority.

Long Chen's father was Shuanglong, who was also Long Xi's older brother, but his status was inexplicably lower than that of Martial Emperor Long Chen.

It's as if everyone has forgotten about seniority, only remembering that the monarch's power is above all else, and even the Dragon God is inferior to the king.

"Princess Long Xi, what was the name of the trick you used when you brought me out before?"

Previously, Wei Jiu was surrounded by a group of elven High Priest, but Long Xi suddenly appeared and teleported him away.

That ability is definitely not spatial ability; it's simply moving out of thin air.

Long Xi didn't look up at Wei Jiu, still holding the book whose meaning was unclear, occasionally flipping through a couple of pages and letting out a burst of unintelligible laughter.

"That's an ability I was born with; it has no name."

Wei Jiu leaned closer and asked, "Could you use that ability again to send me directly to the Elf King's side?"

Long Xi kept his head down, reading. "Can't you just shut up for a bit? I'm too lazy to use my abilities. Forget about it."

Upon hearing this, Wei Jiu snatched the book away. He flipped it over and saw that it was actually a children's book.

"Isn't this for kids?"

Upon hearing this, Long Xi blushed instantly. She abruptly stood up and snatched the book back, saying, "What I read is my freedom, what's it to you?"

Seeing Long Xi's reaction, Wei Jiu suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said with a mischievous smile, "Princess Long Xi, you don't want your reading of children's picture books to be made public, do you?"

Long Xi scoffed at his words, "How low. If you want to make it public, then make it public. No one will care anyway."

Upon hearing this, Wei Jiu scratched his head. This Long Xi was truly impervious to reason.

She doesn't care what you say to her. She has the strength of a fourth-tier expert and the ability to teleport, but she has absolutely no desire to fight.

Let alone the desire to fight, if it weren't for Long Chen's orders, Long Xi probably wouldn't even bother to move.

"Truly worthy of being called a lazy princess."

Upon hearing Wei Jiu's words, Long Xi simply chuckled indifferently.

Is there no room for negotiation?

"Do me a favor..."

Before Wei Jiu could finish speaking, Long Xi interrupted him, "I'll help you with one thing first, and then I'll help you with ten more. One can become any number, but zero is always zero."

"I'm afraid of trouble and I don't want to make mistakes, so I'd rather do nothing."

Wei Jiu slammed his hand on the table. "Then you might as well not follow me at all. Just stay here and wait until I get the holy water and the fruit, then we can both go home sooner!"

Long Xi put down his book. "This won't do, because it's His Majesty's order."

Wei Jiu: "Why not? His Majesty is your nephew!"

Long Xi: "His Majesty is not my nephew. His Majesty is His Majesty, and he has nothing to do with me."

Wei Jiu: "I don't understand."

Long Xi: "I don't understand either, but I'm too lazy to think about it."

Upon hearing this, Wei Jiu plopped back into his chair. Long Xi was always a nuisance to him. "What exactly does His Majesty mean by having her follow me?"

"Here to spy on me?"

"No, given how carefree this guy is, he has absolutely nothing to do with surveillance."

Since Long Xi won't help him, he should think of a way to trick her into leaving.

Wei Jiu: "I don't like you."

Long Xi: "I don't like you either."

Wei Jiu: "Then can you leave?"

Long Xi: "No."

Wei Jiu was immediately caught in a mental storm, and he began to doubt whether his fifth-order soul was real.

But in fact, the strength of one's soul does not affect intelligence.

"I have heard that you are the Child of God, born from the Dragon God and the Supreme Mother God, and were born as a fourth-order being."

"After the Godfall and your father died, why didn't you go to find your mother?"

Upon hearing this, Long Xi's expression showed a rare and intense change. "Are you insulting me, or are you provoking me?"

Wei Jiu: "What if I said I was just curious?"

Upon hearing this, Long Xi suddenly stood up, picked up the book, and walked out. "As you wish, I'm leaving. You can stay here and fend for yourself."

They're leaving already?

Seeing this, Wei Jiu stretched his limbs and said, "Now that she's gone, I can finally go all out."

Night falls.

Wei Jiu once again single-handedly stormed into the Elf Empire. This time, without Long Xi by his side, Wei Jiu began to use his fusion ability freely without any worries.

After merging with the bodies of several elves, he gradually mastered their abilities.

Wei Jiu looked at the ancient tree beside him, "Can I ask for directions? Is the Elf King over there?"

The ancient tree trembled slightly, then raised a branch and pointed in one direction.

"This ability is really convenient."

Wei Jiu took a step and rushed out, constantly plundering various kinds of elf abilities along the way, heading straight for the Sacred Tree City.
