Bloodline Evolution System: Reign of the Dragon Snake

Chapter 307: I will never leave you Part1

After sending the three beasts out, Tang Yue drowned her muscles in piping hot water and contemplated the bombshell news that Xavier had dropped on her.

She wanted to get Xander the smithing technique but she didn’t know how to ask Miller for it, considering that the act was basically treason on his part.

They naturally had a silent understanding about this, but still, she felt awkward to actually do so.

It felt wrong to exploit the relationship this man had with her mother, which she was still unclear about.

However, what needed to be done, had to be done.

Not to mention the enormous scythe which was looming over everyone’s heads.

If the blood bath that the old man had predicted was indeed on the verge of fruition, Tang Yue believed that it was important for the elves to arm themselves with powerful weapons and armors.

During those testing times, even if the dwarves willingly wanted to share their secret, it might just be too late for anyone to do anything.

So what she was doing right now might only help everyone in the future.

Tang Yue mulled over these things and absentmindedly dried herself, dressing in a simple and clean yellow robe, adorned with purple flowers.

Such a color combination normally wouldn’t have matched a pale blue skin tone. However, the woman still pulled it off and looked as beautiful as ever.

She gulped nervously and walked back and forth in the big hall, waiting for Miller to return.

The dwarf only returned back an hour later and he wordlessly dumped another huge pile of Kirrion ore chunks in front of Tang Yue.

“You can now start training with these materials,” Miller grunted.

“Practice your Hundred Swings and Thousand Swings Refinement technique on these ores.”

“Eventually when you smith spirit weapons, you will be using these refined ores.” He explained.

Tang Yue obediently nodded but she didn’t immediately start her tasks.

“Master… That… That…” She hesitated and fidgeted with her fingers.

Hmmm? Miller sat down on his chair and patiently waited for the girl to speak. “What happened?”

Tang Yue met the man’s gaze once before looking away and sighing guiltily.

She then suddenly knelt down on the floor and banged her head on the ground. “Master. This unfilial disciple has a greedy request.”

She could hear the old man’s scoffing in her mind but she ignored the guy and paid attention to only Miller’s words.

The dwarf was confused. He squinted his eyes, trying to figure out what was happening. “What do you want, child?”

Since Miller held a prominent position in the dwarven royal city, he was pretty confident that he could give almost anything Tang Yue wanted.

But seeing her exaggerated actions, he couldn’t help but wonder what the girl was talking about.

Tang Yue continued kneeling, with her head still on the ground. “Master, please impart me the technique to forge spirit weapons.”

Hmmm? The dwarf raised his brows. Wasn’t this already decided?

Before he could answer, the girl mumbled a few more words. “And please allow me to share this technique with the elven Crown Prince and the Eldorian Empire.”

Aha Ha Ha… Miller smiled. He now understood what was going on and why Tang Yue was acting so meekly.

This cheeky little girl! He chuckled.

She was basically asking him to betray the entire Dwarven Empire in exchange for a kowtow!

“Stand up, child. First, tell me what happened in detail.”

Tang Yue raised her head and nodded. She then patiently explained to him several things.

Her betrothal, the ancient labyrinth and how she was indebted to Xander, and lastly, the request of the elven high counsel elders for her to learn the spirit smithing technique.

Miller patiently listened to Tang Yue and with every word he heard, his face visibly darkened.

When Tang Yue was finally done with her explanation, the dwarf looked extremely angry.

“Ptui. Filthy stinking elves.” He spat out venomously.

It was quite obvious to him why the elven high counsel elders had sent out Tang Yue to the Dwarven Empire.

They hadn’t sent her out on a secret mission. Rather they had sent her to her death.

And all of this because of a mere doubt that she had managed to obtain some treasure in the labyrinth.

They couldn’t stomach the possibility of seeing a spirit beast become powerful and hence they had sent her on this impossible mission.

In reality, he wanted to curse her father, who was the reason behind everything. 

He had foolishly sacrificed such a good child to the cruel elves without any consideration.

That man not only betrayed Tang Yue, but he had also betrayed Tang Yue’s mother, Lin Yue.

But Miller didn’t want to scold Tang Yue’s father in front of her and angrily gnashed his teeth.

He could only blame himself for not being there for Tang Yue sooner. 

It was not like he did not know that Lin Yue had a daughter, but he had still willingly remained in the drunken stupor because of his own selfish reasons.

Perhaps if he had met her sooner, none of this would have happened.

Miller gnashed his teeth and asked, his reddened eyes scrutinizing the woman’s demeanor.

“And you still want to give the elves this technique?” 

Tang Yue paused and then slowly answered. “I owe it to that man, Master.”

Miller was slightly surprised. 

He didn’t expect this answer. He had thought that maybe Tang Yue was doing this out of fear.

Who wouldn’t be frightened if the entire Elven Empire was out for their blood?

So it startled him to learn that Tang Yue was rather thinking about something else.

“Do you like that man, child?” Miller probed further.

Ah~~ Tang Yue blinked. It was her turn to be shocked. She hesitated for a second, before shaking her head vigorously.

She denied such an impossible thing with all her might.

Miller was amused at the young woman’s reactions. He didn’t ask her anything further.

The dwarf sighed and wordlessly took out a jade slip from his ring and performed some hand incantations.

He then handed it over to Tang Yue as if he was giving her a piece of meat. “Here take it.”

Tang Yue looked up and met the dwarf’s gaze. Her body was frozen and her hand refused to accept the man’s help.

How could he give me this so easily?

Was he not going to ask anything else?

If this news spreads out, won’t he be labeled as a traitor and banished from the Dwarven Empire or worse, even executed?

So why was he handing over such a priceless technique without even putting forward a single condition? 

Tang Yue trembled.

She knew that she was exploiting the man and the affection he had for her mother and she felt sick to her stomach for doing so.

Was her own freedom so important to her that she was willing to sacrifice so many people for achieving it?

Tang Yue hesitated. Even if the dwarf was willing to give her everything, she was not sure if she should accept it.

“Don’t think so much, little snake. You are only helping everyone.” 

“Though this small action is nowhere close to making any difference, it could still save a few lives from being massacred, maybe even giving them enough time to flee.” The old man chimed in her mind.

Tang Yue bit her lips in frustration. 

She understood that as well, so in the end, even if she didn’t want to, she had to do this.

Tang Yue bent her head down and accepted the jade slip from the dwarf’s hand with a sour feeling in her heart.

The dwarf, however, simply chuckled. “Just the technique won’t be enough, child. Do you think making spirit weapons is that easy?”

“It would at least take the elves a decade or more to gain any meaningful insight.”

“So don’t think too much and send it over.”

Miller grunted and got up from his seat. He then casually walked out, heading somewhere again.

“Also, don’t just focus on smithing.” 

“You should spar with your elven friend upstairs at least for an hour or two a day.”

“Now that you have conditioned your body using Kirrion backlash, the next step is to temper your body with sword moves.”

The man’s voice boomed and he disappeared from Tang Yue’s eyes.

“Yes, Master. I understand.” Tang Yue bowed again and gratefully nodded.

Her fists, however, were clenched so tightly that her knuckles appeared white.

“You have forced me into this corner.” Her long forked tongue slithered in and out.

She had not even met the elven high counsel elders in person before, but now, they both had an enmity that will never be peacefully resolved.

Tang Yue’s emerald eyes gleamed with a vicious glint as she gazed at the jade slip on her hands.

She then used a couple of hand incantations and another jade slip to replicate the technique and sent it to Xander.

“With this… we are even.” She muttered under her breath.
