244 The Night Elf King

Xu Yuan continued giving orders to the White Dragon Saint, the nine-headed Hydra, and the Red-Eyed Black Dragon. He even commanded the Third Prince to stay by Su Wan’s side.

Everyone looked at the furious Su Wan. Xu Yuan had already closed his eyes and gone to sleep. Of course, they were going to obey his word. His words held more weight than Su Wan’s for them.

“I swear I will protect the Lord with my life!”

Su Wan was speechless.

How was this fair? Xu Yuan clearly saw her as a pig for slaughter. At least if Xu Yuan was a pig, she could cut him and eat him for a meal. She didn’t have the heart or the appetite for dragon meat.

Su Wan wanted to cry and rage. However, she had no choice right now but to do as she was told.

She was not strong enough to rebel, so she might as well follow through. She wished Zhao Qingrong, Shi Linglong, and Lin Yao were with her right now. She couldn’t escape this situation, so she might as well have shared it with her friends. Alas, they weren’t here with her.

“Fan out and explore the surroundings,” said Xu Yuan to a Night Elf. “If you find another void, inform me immediately.”

Night Elves were perfect at concealing themselves. So, they were an excellent alternative for exploring new places.

Lord Su Wan was nothing but a tool to level up for Xu Yuan. Now that the Light-Types were looking for trouble, he didn’t want any accidents. He had to level up as soon as possible.

Before the inevitable face-off with the Lord of the Sky, it would be useful to reach Level 70.

There were also various hidden mission rewards. All the more reason to level up sooner!

His only regret was that he couldn’t find any more voids to battle rarer and more powerful creatures. Xu Yuan felt a little disappointed.

Su Wan despairingly thought about other Lords. She wondered if they had managed to find something new in the Overlord Plane.

She was also worried about the population issue in her own territory. She had taken in 100 Night Elves. How would she afford to raise them? She couldn’t chase them away, either. That would seriously lower the self-esteem of other troops as well.

If the other troops felt that they were disposable too, the work efficiency and productivity would go down in her territory. They might even mutiny against her.

There were cases where Lords were harmed by their own troops…

“The greedy Rhino Troops are here again today,” said Xu Yuan. “Kill them all!”

He realized that the other Lords were slowly exploring and trying to encroach into other areas. They now had a better grasp of this plane.

However, this was how the world worked. The weak were prey to the strong. If one wanted to become stronger, one had to accept all kinds of challenges, find stronger troops, and level up.

Humans were the most terrifying creatures of all. Everyone in this plane had been fighting against powerful monsters that emerged occasionally. There was no saying whether the humans would attack each other once they were done with the monsters.

“Xu Yuan, I can’t do this much longer,” said Su Wan. She was panting.

Xu Yuan raised his claw. A beam of light fell on Su Wan, the Hydra, the Red-Eyed Black Dragon, the White Dragon Saint, and the Third Prince.

Everyone turned to look at the Third Prince. All of them had received the Demonic Dragon’s Blessing and their attributes had increased. However, the Third Prince had also transformed into something else.

Scarlen held a dark bow in his hands. His body was filled with endless power. He raised his free hand and an arrow, as dark as ink, appeared there.

He had transformed into the Night Elf King!

The creatures from the void stopped their attacks momentarily as they felt a threatening aura emanating from him.

The little black butterfly perched on Xu Yuan’s head. His beautiful black eyes looked at Scarlen with curiosity. He wanted to see how strong the Night Elf King actually was.

Whoosh!

The magic arrow shot out in a blur. The others couldn’t even make out where it was headed as it veered at an impossible speed.

The arrow had slipped through the crack into the void. Numerous creatures fell.

The power of the unique arrow didn’t stop there. Xu Yuan felt the rise in experience points. He nodded in satisfaction.

Su Wan worked hard and took the troops to kill more monsters and level up. Meanwhile, Xu Yuan bathed in the warm sunlight and watched everything.

Xu Yuan looked at the crack in the sky. It was about to close. He felt that it was such a waste that the time was up.

He hadn’t even slept well. He might as well just leave now and eat some good food. It was useless to stay here.

“This is so boring…” he mumbled.

He wanted to go back to the Dark Castle. The Night Elf in charge of scouting and exploring the surrounding was back.

“Lord Xu Yuan, we discovered another void. There are mostly Level 60 creatures emerging from there.”

Xu Yuan smiled. If that was true, he could get resources and experience points to upgrade soon. When the time came, he could even storm into the Light Princess’ territory and eliminate other enemies.

Xu Yuan looked at his attribute panel. He was almost about to reach Level 66. Just a few steps short of Level 70!

“Lord Su Wan has given the order to end today’s battle.”

Su Wan was sitting on a rock. She was drenched in sweat. After dealing with the last of the creatures, she almost collapsed. Even Xu Yuan’s ability couldn’t make up for the physical and mental fatigue she experienced.

When Su Wan thought about how Xu Yuan could level up just by sleeping, but he used her and made her work to the bone just for him to level up, tears fell from her eyes.

“My Lord, how can you retreat now? This territory isn’t strong enough. I am going to make it stronger so that we are prepared for our fight against the Light-Types,” said Xu Yuan.

He acted as though Su Wan had been slacking off. She and her troops had fought till they almost collapsed just so Xu Yuan could level up, but he acted as though she was useless.

Su Wan picked up a small stone and threw it at Xu Yuan with all her might. “I don’t care anymore! Even if I fall off the city wall and die, I won’t continue to fight for you. Not today!”

If she didn’t put up a fight, she might really collapse and die because Xu Yuan was working her to the bone. She couldn’t take it anymore!
