The Queen of Roran sat quietly to the side, watching her daughter and Uya's conversation without interrupting.
And she felt that it might be better if her daughter spoke to her?
Because Uya doesn't seem like a bad person. If Uya were really a bad person, then with Uya's power, there would be no need to talk to her at all. That kind of power that can turn steel into powder with a wave of her hand is something that no one can resist.
Moreover, hearing Sara so clearly point out the key points of Rōran's existence and the most important crucial issues, the Queen of Roran felt very gratified. It seemed that Sara was fully capable of succeeding as queen.
Uya watched Sara with great interest. The little girl was initially very scared, but now she could puff out her cheeks and argue with him.
What if I could stop the wind and sand from eroding the land?
"Impossible! Apart from the continuous power of the Dragon Vein, there's no way it could stop the sandstorm. Besides, even if you could stop it once, you'd eventually have to leave. What would you do then?"
Sara looked at Uya with a puff of encouragement, while the Queen of Roran looked at Uya as well, their gazes indicating that what Sara said was exactly what she wanted to say.
Seeing this, Uya stood up, smiled at them, and said, "Why can't we solve the problem of wind and sand erosion all at once?"
"Solve it all at once?"
Sara looked at Uya as if he were an idiot. This was a desert; to solve the sandstorm problem in one go was utterly foolish!
The Queen of Roran, standing to the side, also twitched slightly at the corner of her mouth. Even if Uya possessed immense power, capable of turning steel to dust, how could he possibly change the desert?
Seeing the disbelieving expressions on the two women's faces, Uya smiled slightly and said, "If you don't believe me, then come with me."
With that, Uya turned around and walked out of the palace.
Seeing this, the Queen of Roran hesitated for a moment. Although she didn't know what Uya was going to do, she still stood up and followed Uya.
Sara, standing to the side, looked at Uya 'Uya retreating figure with some annoyance, but dared not argue with him at this moment. She could only follow the Queen of Roran and walk outside together.
She wanted to see what Uya would say if he couldn't resolve the sandstorm in one go.
Queen of Roran's thinking was much more mature than Sara's. She not only considered the problem of Uya's inability to stop the sandstorm, but also wondered if Uya would become enraged and forcibly seize the Dragon Vein if he failed to do so.
That would truly be a disaster for Rōran.
But at this moment, she was helpless and could only pray silently in her heart, hoping that Uya would spare the country after realizing that human strength was insufficient to resist the natural power of the desert.
Upon seeing Uya Uya emerge from the palace, the ministers and soldiers outside were startled and stared at him with extreme vigilance.
Uya completely ignored them and continued walking forward.
When Queen of Roran and Princess Sara came out from behind, the ministers finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Uya had not done anything to the Queen.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness."
The guards and ministers all bowed to Queen of Roran and Princess Sara.
When the ministers saw that they were following Uya and seemed to want to leave the palace, they were suddenly startled and quickly followed.
"Your Majesty, what is this...?"
"That guy said he'd solve the problem of Rōran being eroded by sandstorms, and in exchange, he'd take the power of the Dragon Vein."
Queen of Roran remained silent, but Sara, standing to the side, pouted and pointed at Uya's retreating figure.
This statement immediately caused an uproar among everyone.
"Take away the power of the Dragon Vein?!"
"Absolutely not! Without the Dragon Vein, this country simply cannot exist! It will surely perish!"
All the ministers were in an uproar, and their faces lit up with anger.
"If that guy wants to destroy this country, no matter how powerful he is, we'll fight him to the death!"
"That's right, we absolutely cannot let him get away."
Seeing the scene of public outrage, the Queen of Roran had no choice but to wave her hand twice to signal everyone to quiet down.
Having witnessed Uya's power to turn steel into powder, the Queen of Roran knew that she must not clash with Uya under any circumstances, as that would only increase casualties and be pointless.
Moreover, even if Uya manages to forcibly seize the dragon Dragon Vein, they can simply abandon this place and find a new place to rebuild their home.
"Everyone, please be quiet. He's not trying to destroy the country; he's trying to help us solve the problem of sandstorms. Let's see how he plans to do it."
The Queen of Roran diverted everyone's anger with a single sentence.
Upon hearing the words of the Queen of Roran, the ministers present all had different expressions, but most of them showed complete disbelief.
Without the power of the Dragon Vein, it's impossible to withstand the erosion of wind and sand. Besides, Uya is just one person. Although he is very strong and can shatter steel, it's a joke to fight against the desert and this natural environment!
"Human strength alone cannot resist nature; only by relying on the dragon Dragon Vein, which are also a force of nature, can we withstand the desert."
"That guy might be trying to lure Her Majesty and the Princess out so he can seize the Dragon Vein. Your Majesty must not be careless!"
Several ministers spoke up.
"Quiet!"
At this moment, the Queen of Roran displayed her regal bearing, instantly silencing everyone present.
She took a deep breath, glanced at the ministers and guards around her, and said in a deep voice, "Don't forget, if he really wanted to harm me, he could have done it already. You should have all seen that the guards couldn't possibly stand against him."
Upon hearing the words of the Queen of Roran, the ministers around her all turned extremely grim.
Finally, someone gritted their teeth, gazing at Uya's retreating figure, and said, "In that case, let's see how he intends to resolve this."
"That's right. If he can really solve it, giving him the Dragon Vein wouldn't be a problem."
Although they said that, no one believed that Uya could solve the sandstorm problem without relying on the Dragon Vein and with human strength.
While escorting Queen of Roran and Princess Sara, ministers summoned a large number of guards, gathering almost all of the few guards available in Rōran.
Even some civilians spontaneously followed after hearing the news, and the crowd grew larger and larger. By the time Uya reached the edge of Rōran, almost half of the residents of Rōran had come and gathered behind him.
Looking ahead at the endless desert and behind at the buildings of Rōran, Uya finally stopped and said calmly, "Alright, this is fine."
Seeing Uya stop, Queen of Roran and Princess Sara also stopped, as did the ministers, guards, and commoners behind them.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Uya, filled with confusion and disbelief, wondering how he planned to solve the problem of Uya and sand erosion.
Looking at the endless desert ahead and the Rōran architecture behind, Uya recalled the scene of Sunagakure that he had visited before, and a complete picture gradually formed in his mind.
The next moment, Uya suddenly reached out his hand, made a grasping motion towards the air as if he had grabbed something invisible, and then suddenly pulled downwards!
Sigh!! (To be continued.)
