<b>Chapter 17</b>
The scene before his eyes was both familiar and foreign. It was familiar because these lands were established by Bai YueSheng personally. He had lead his elven followers away from the elven clanâs homeland, leaving the clanâs strict rules and instead advocating a life of freedom. He abandoned the old dogmas and arrogance, and allowed the elves to live a different kind of life.\nAlthough afterwards they were called âdark elvesâ by later generations but even they couldnât deny the continuous growth and rapid development of the dark elves was something that could not be matched by regular elves.\n\n{T/N: I previously translated as ânight elvesâ, changed now to dark elves.}
The foreign part was because Bai YueSheng had left this world for too long. It was such a long time that he had already buried everything into the deep recesses of his memory. Although he did not forget it, he only treated it as a past lifetime and thought he would never see it again.
But who knew⌠that he would come back.
He had to returned to this place of fragrant rosin, the Sienn continent where two golden suns shone in the bright blue sky.
Ah Jiuâs voice was in his head: âThe Sienn continent. The sixth world you travelled to. The mission was to find the golden dragon. Your completion grade was double SS, after you finished you received a reward.â
Bai YueSheng: â⌠Lord Jiu, please move on the important matter at hand.â
Ah Jiu knew what he was concerned about: âThe promotion mission hasnât been failed, it has only been paused. Your return to the Sienn continent should be because you triggered a side mission.â
âIs it like thisâŚâ Bai YueSheng sighed.
He had encountered many side missions. Although he had never encountered one which involved changing worlds, but he had already encountered so many bizarre things during this promotion mission that he no longer found it too surprising.
As long as the promotion mission hadnât been failed then Bai YueSheng would continue bearing it.
He then asked, âWhat about the requirement to maintain an ordinary life?â In the Sienn continuent he was a infamous elven âtraitorâ. The him that was a self-proclaimed King naturally couldnât be described with the word âordinaryâ.
Not to mention the wealth restriction, his fame was already widespread in the Sienn continent. It definitely couldnât be under the 10,000 point restriction!
Ah Jiu said: âThe requirements only apply to Earth.â
Bai YueSheng relaxed with relief. So it was like this.
âThen what is the information for the side mission?â
Ah Jiu: âThereâs no mission hints.â
Bai YueSheng: ââŚâ
Ah Jiu was a very experienced system however and so very quickly was able to gather some useful information. âJust before you said to Neil Maine âLetâs go homeâ, these should be the words that triggered the side mission. So this side mission should be related to Neil Maine. Also⌠you probably need to complete the side mission in order to return to Earth to continue the main mission.â
Bai YueSheng: âI think maybeâŚâ
Ah Jiu was too familiar with him: âWhy donât you try it?â
Bai YueSheng said seriously: âBut he has two penises, Iâm scared of dying on the bed.â
Ah Jiu: Hehe. Isnât one of the goals of you humanâs lives to be f**ed to death?
{T/N: Ah Jiu, where have you been doing your human studies?!}
ââŚâ Bai YueShengâs head was about to explode with anger. âGet lost! Get lost! Get lost!â
Ah Jiu: âVery sorry but I canât get lost. Because of your idiocy, I canât remove myself from the game and entered this completely random and out of tempo world to do this completely meaningless side mission with you.â
Bai YueSheng blinked: âAh Jiu, your gunpowder scent is very strong.â
{T/N: Referring to the fact that Ah Jiu sounds like he is angry.}
Ah Jiu: âHa.â
Bai YueSheng: âAm I delaying the romance between you and the little loli?â
Ah Jiu: âIâm only protecting her, Iâm not romancing her.â
Bai YueSheng: âOh. You left too quickly and didnât get a chance to say bye to her so youâre scared that she will leave you?â
ââŚ.â Ah Jiu.
Ding! You have just been blacklisted by the system. This is an automated response: Get lost.
Bai YueSheng rolled his eyes. He thought that definitely one day his familyâs system would be felled by hand of this âlittle loliâ.
Having understood the majority of the situation, Bai YueSheng calmed down. He looked around the room. The colors were primarily in shades of white and green, the most striking feature is the giant tree that on the opposite wall that stretched upwards from the corner.
Although it was only a mural but because it had been inlaid with a large number of emerald it glimmered vividly like a living thing. It looked exceedingly like the Tree of Life from the elven homeland that was the lifeblood of all the Elves. The only difference was the real Tree of Life was filled with beautiful natural resources, not something vulgar that can be bought with money like this.
The rumor was spread that the mural on Bai YueShengâs bedroom indicated his ambition to conquer the elves. Other people said that he was trying to insult the elvesâ arrogance by saying their precious natural resources is nothing but glittering stones.
It was no wonder there were so many of these rumors. It was all because of Bai YueShengâs temperament. He was tyrannical and ambitious and came from the lineage of the high and mighty elves. Everyone knew that elves exceedingly despised gold and silver and no one would have thought that this pureblood elf leader who possessed such astounding beauty and aura would take a liking to these kind of vulgar, material things.
But in reality Bai YueSheng really liked his house to be filled with shiny gold things. The fact that he hadnât paved his entire territory with gold already required a lot of self control!
Bai YueSheng got off the bed and went to the door and opened it. He felt his entire body freeze.
Outside countless elves were kneeling down on one knee. They possessed long and graceful bodies, with the beautiful appearances that would make people lose their hearts. Their silver hair was akin to moonlight. The entire scene was incredibly moving.
At this moment they bowed their noble heads and their elegant voices were filled with admiration and respect.
âGreat King, you have returned.â
Bai YueSheng paused but then quickly something even more surprising appeared before his eyes.
Not far away it shone under the light of the two suns. The green Tree of Life was bright like it was filled with starlight, and countless natural resources twinkled like thousands of fireflies moving and floating in the air like a moving dance of life.
Tree of Life⌠what was it doing here?!
{T/N: This part was very hard to translate but you get it, it tree looks amazing orzâŚâŚ. (*ďžâďž*)}
It took a long time for Bai YueSheng to gather his thoughts. He frowned and his heart was filled with shock.
After he left, had some new capable person appeared among the elves? This person was so powerful that they actually moved the Tree of Life from the elven lands to this place. But actually it was pretty good. This way that bunch of old fellows who constantly mocked and cursed him had probably now been driven insane.
But that wasnât right either⌠if somehow really this capable person really existed then they should have long proclaimed themselves King by now. Why would they leave the position and wait for his return?
Return? Bai YueSheng quickly realized that the word was incorrect.
At the time of him leaving the Sienn continent, it was a undisputed death. He had died under the eyes of the entire world, the death was impossible to fake. In eyes of the people he should be deader than dead.
Why would a dead person return?
Bai YueShengâs thoughts swirled around his head, but his face was completely calm. He raised his hand and softly said, âAll rise.â
Their voices were raised in a chorus of gratitude as countless elves stood up.
Bai YueSheng saw many familiar faces. After saying some perfunctionary words, he called up a few of his old comrades into the side palace.
Although Teacher Baiâs memory was good he had already experienced several more worlds after, so he couldnât recall clearly everyoneâs names.
Luckily the one at the front was someone he probably previously was very familiar with, so he still remembered his name. âAlisson, can you tell me what has been happening all these years?â
{T/N: âRandom Western-sounding nameâ strikes again! The Chinese is âYa Li Senâ which I actually think is supposed to be Allison, but since this is a dude, I changed it to Alisson to make it sound more masculine.}
Alisson said respectfully, âYes, Great King.â
The personality of the Elves tended towards coldness but if you listened closely to his words you could detect that he was obviously trying to suppress his excitement.
He started to explain but Bai YueSheng quickly interrupted him.
âDid you say that the Tree of Life outside isâŚâ
Alisson said respectfully, âYes. It was personally captured by his Majesty and gifted to you as a bride price.â
His Majesty? Bai YueSheng can interpret this as Neil Maine having proclaimed himself Emperor, but what the hell was a bride price?!
Bai YueSheng recalled the words Neil Maine had spoken â âI am his fiancee.â
He actually wanted to get married to him? Bai YueSheng felt somewhat stunned. The nature of the dragon was naturally lewd but that was only before marriage. After making vows they would be eternally loyal to their chosen partner, and would never leave them.
So in the world of dragons, there were two extreme types. One was the crazily possessive âprotect wife to deathâ type, and the other was the âcreating trouble throughout the worldâ playboy type.
Bai YueSheng didnât think that Neil Maine would continue playing his entire life, but he never thought that this black dragon would want to become life companions with him.
It wasnât logical. Didnât Neil Maine already have a âwhite lotusâ in his heart?
{T/N: âWhite Lotusâ is Chinese internet slang for someone who has a pure appearance but scheming inside.}
