Chapter 564: The Hall Of Might
Jiu Shen and Jian Wang slowly descended beneath the towering Eonic Ragarwood Tree. They could already see the graceful silhouette of Elena waiting for them on the ground.
"Hello, Elena. It's nice to see you again!" Jian Wang grinned as he greeted the leader of the Ancient Fairies. He also turned his head to look at the woman who was standing behind her, but he couldn't remember this person.
Jiu Shen nodded his head as he looked at Elena. When he moved his gaze towards the woman behind her, Jiu Shen revealed a look of surprise as he muttered. "This young lady must be the spirit body birthed by the Eonic Ragarwood Tree."
He could feel the dense spiritual power wrapped around the woman's body. She also had the refreshing scent of the Eonic Ragarwood Tree's leaves.
Elena gasped in surprise after hearing his words. "Nothing can truly escape your eyes, Jiu Shen. This is Elyssier and she is indeed the spirit body of the Eonic Ragarwood Tree."
Elyssier hid her surprise as she lightly bowed her head in greeting. "It's a pleasure to meet the two top experts of the Primordial God Realm."
"Oh?" Jian Wang glanced at her with an intrigued look on his face. Only a few spiritual plants would give birth to a spirit body and it rarely happens even to Celestial-rank spiritual plants.
"What brings the two of you here? Could it be that you are here to personally deliver another batch of wines for me?" Elena coyly stared at Jiu Shen as she grabbed his arms. The wines sent by Jiu Shen were all high-quality products and even Elyssier praised them.
Jiu Shen could feel the soft bulges that were rubbing his arms. He gently pushed her away and responded in a serious voice. "It is time for you to leave this forest."
Elena's face changed when she heard his words and she immediately summoned a spiritual barrier to cover the entire forest. "Jiu Shen, what are you saying?! They might be listening to us right now!"
Jiu Shen's expression was still calm as he replied. "It doesn't matter. All the preparations have been set. Don't you want to leave this forest?"
"That... I do..." Elena said meekly.
"Then go with us and fight for your freedom." Jiu Shen grabbed her shoulder firmly as he looked into her eyes.
Elena gulped. His golden pupils were the most mesmerizing thing she had ever seen.
"So it's finally time, huh?"
Jiu Shen nodded his head. "Bring your forces and we will set off immediately."
"Okay. Give me an hour to call my soldiers." Elena nodded her head. Although she had been stuck inside this forest for many years, she was still secretly building up her forces with the help of her adopted daughter, Rose.
After an hour, Elena came back with millions of Elves and Forest Druids. There were also tens of thousands of giant walking trees among her army. They were more famously known as Treants.
Looking at the army behind Elena and Elyssier, Jian Wang and Jiu Shen couldn't help but praise her silently.
"I've been hiding in secret inside this forest, so only Rose is handling the army. I also didn't know that the army would grow this large." Elena whispered awkwardly when she saw the admiring gazes of the two men.
So that's how it is. To think that the elegant and kind-hearted Rose actually had the talent to organize a large army!
"Let's go!" Jiu Shen took out the flying ships that he had bought from Asmodeus. These vehicles were handy so he didn't hesitate when he purchased them at a large price.
"Board the ships!" Rose commanded the army in a loud voice.
Soon, hundreds of flying ships soared through the clouds.
The normal civilians of the Southern Region were stunned when they saw the flying ships in the skies.
Standing on the bow of the largest flying ship, Jiu Shen took out his communication crystal. "Asmodeus, call your forces and bring them to the Desert Region. Bring the Heaven Sword Army with you since you have the most number of flying ships. We will wait for you there."
"Huh?! Alright! I'll mobilize my forces immediately!" A stunned voice can be heard behind the shining crystal.
Jiu Shen hung up the call and kept the crystal back inside his space earring.
Meanwhile, inside a luxurious mansion that was on top of the floating city, a two-meter tall man wearing an eye-catching red battle armor abruptly stood up from his seat. He had a dark expression on his face as he muttered with a cold smile. "Elena has finally run out of patience." He then glanced at the two men in front of him and said.
"Troy, Sebastian, prepare the wedding gifts. It's time to meet my bride."
"Oh?" Troy, a man with an athletic figure dressed in light silver armor revealed a look of interest. There was a long bow made of adamantine strapped behind his back.
"Yes, Hall Master Hecate!" A man with fiery red hair dressed in long golden robes responded with a respectful voice.
Hecate, the Hall Master of the Hall of Might, grinned. "We will depart tomorrow, so have everyone prepare a magnificent entourage! I don't want my bride to look down on me."
Hecate's eyes flashed with a passionate look when he recalled the peerless image of Elena. She was the only woman who could compare to Lilith in terms of appearance. He had been patiently waiting for her to come out of the forest and finally take her as his bride.
"Hall Master, what if she rejects your proposal?" Troy asked while looking at Hecate.
Hecate's face turned cold upon hearing that. He turned his gaze towards Troy and muttered. "Then I will capture her and make her regret it!"
Troy swallowed down the words he was about to say when he saw the expression of the Hall Master.
Luckily, the man didn't swat him to death...
