Chapter 888 877: A Joyful Banquet
The Holy Mother of the Elf Clan chose to agree to the conditions put forth by the Dark Elf Queen. After negotiating a series of agreements, the customary banquet began.
The Elf Clan loves nature, so this banquet was held amidst breathtaking and magnificent natural scenery.
Bai Yan sat in front of a waterfall, with an incredibly precious elf wine in front of him!
It is said that after Su Yu nearly cleared out all the elf wine from the Elf Clan, this was the only aged elf wine left.
Beside Bai Yan sat the Holy Mother and the Dark Elf Queen, surrounded by the elders of both the Elf Clan and Dark Elves.
In addition, there were Qin Jiuluo, Fu Chao, and others present.
However, the faces of the Elf Clan members present were not particularly pleasant. After all, the Dark Elves had been forcibly inserted into the Elf Clan by Bai Yan, and they neither dared to resist Bai Yan's intention nor dared to show anger in front of him.
At this time, they could only pretend to be very happy, but each wore a wry smile in Bai Yan's eyes.
Even though the Holy Mother and several elders of the Elf Clan could feel that the fortune of the Elf Clan was becoming much stronger in the future, they couldn't manage to feel happy at the moment.
However, Bai Yan didn't care about others' views. At this moment, he was holding the elf wine, savoring it sip by sip, locking all the enormous energy contained in the wine within himself.
He had a premonition that once he finished this jar of elf wine, the strength attributed to his human identity would probably reach the brink of a breakthrough.
Bai Yan had been at the Quasi-Saint Realm for a long time. The longer he stayed in this realm, the more solid his strength became, and the more he anticipated the changes in his power once he stepped into the Saint Realm.
However, he soon understood that today didn't seem to be the most suitable day for a breakthrough.
For the atmosphere between the Elves and the Dark Elves, tense as a drawn sword, suddenly erupted at this moment.
"Lord Bai Yan, Holy Mother, I am Narco. Today, it is a great honor for Lord Bai Yan to visit our Elf Clan. Narco has specially prepared a sword dance for Lord Bai Yan, hoping you will like it."
The male elf named Narco said, pulling out the thin sword at his waist and started dancing at the table.
The thin sword was filled with murderous intent, and it didn't seem like a sword dance to Bai Yan but rather a sword of murder.
Moreover, Narco was intentionally or unintentionally provoking a male Dark Elf elder sitting opposite him, with the sword's edge occasionally sweeping past him.
Until the next moment, when Narco, who was already a bit tipsy, either lost control of his thin sword or did it on purpose, the sword point brushed the male Dark Elf elder's face, leaving a blood mark, causing this strange atmosphere to explode immediately!
"Lord Bai Yan, Queen, it's Yaksa here. Since this Elf Brother is so enthusiastic, I hope Lord Bai Yan and the Queen will allow me, Yaksa, to dance a duet with this Elf Brother!"
The male Dark Elf elder touched the blood mark on his face, and the killing intent in his eyes was blatant, clearly allowing everyone to feel his rage.
Bai Yan didn't speak, continuing to savor his elf wine while continually digesting the massive energy accumulating within him.
Instead, the Dark Elf Queen appeared excited, smiling at the male Dark Elf elder named Yaksa, "Permission granted! Accompany this Elf Brother well!"
Dark Elf Elder Yaksa received the order, immediately left the seat, and similarly drew the long sword at his waist.
The sword of the Outer Realm Life Remnants was slightly heavier and thicker than that of the Elf Clan, but that was just Yaksa himself. Generally, the close combat weapons of the Dark Elf Clan were dual daggers.
Yaksa's long sword fiercely stabbed toward the elf elder Narco, intense killing intent swirling around the sword, directly aiming for Narco's throat.
Of course, Narco wouldn't sit still and wait for death. The elf long sword in his hand swiftly vibrated, and in an instant, over a hundred sword flowers bloomed, rushing toward Yaksa!
Although Bai Yan didn't care about this battle at all, it seemed as if fate wanted Bai Yan to manage these two species originally born from the same roots.
Narco and Yaksa's dual swords clashed, and the enormous Divine Radiance erupted in this instant, with a significant portion of the residual power directly shooting toward Bai Yan!
The entire banquet seemed to completely stop at this moment, with horrified expressions flashing across everyone's faces.
No one dared to provoke Bai Yan at this time, but the two people fighting at the table happened to cause such trouble at this moment.
Bai Yan, of course, sensed the waves of Divine Radiance surging toward him, but he didn't react in any way.
Because he knew that with Qin Jiuluo and others present, there was no possibility for him to be disturbed.
Just as the Divine Radiance surged toward Bai Yan, Qin Jiuluo suddenly vanished from his position and appeared directly in front of Bai Yan.
The Saint Realm strength erupted fully at this moment, the near-peak Saint Realm killing intent enveloped everyone at the banquet!
Everyone in this moment seemed to see the most terrifying scene within their hearts, especially the two people dancing at the table, who became the primary focus of Qin Jiuluo's killing intent!
In an instant, the two were forced directly to kneel before Bai Yan by Qin Jiuluo's killing intent, while Qin Jiuluo's angry voice echoed from Bai Yan's direction.
"How dare you! Do you seek to assassinate my master? Does your Elf Clan wish to be uprooted?!"
The Holy Mother of the Elf Clan and other elves didn't dare acknowledge Qin Jiuluo's accusation. At this point, everyone from the Elf Clan, including the Holy Mother, hurriedly stepped out from behind the seats, knelt before Bai Yan with a thud, and shouted in unison.
"Spare us, Senior Bai! We dare not! We dare not!"
"Senior Bai, please see clearly! It was only the actions of those two individuals and really unrelated to the Elf Clan! Please have mercy, Senior Bai!"
At this moment, everyone was anxious to disassociate themselves from the two kneeling behind, not caring about their position or identity.
Of course, in Bai Yan's view, this was actually a good phenomenon, indicating the Elf Clan wasn't as united as imagined, making it easier for the Dark Elf Clan to penetrate into the Elf Clan, seizing more power and increasing Bai Yan's voice within the Elf Clan.
In the end, Bai Yan previously didn't help the Dark Elf Clan only to avoid suspicion; otherwise, everyone might think he had an affair with the Dark Elf Clan.
Although he indeed has some connection with the Dark Elf Clan, it cannot be spoken aloud.
Bai Yan didn't raise his head to look, continuing to savor his elf wine, while the elves kneeling below felt anxious and uneasy, not daring to urge Bai Yan even a single word, only able to continue their prostration with fear and trepidation, waiting for Bai Yan's final judgment.
Originally, the Elf Clan wouldn't have been so wretched, but today Bai Yan directly defeated the Holy Mother, who was blessed by the Elf Divine Tree, with just one sword. Such might reminded them of that man, a man who must not be defied.
At this moment, Bai Yan finally lifted his head amidst the frightened faces of the crowd.
However, he wasn't intending to forgive them; he was about to break through!
