Xu Ling looked down at him, finding him reliable, and remained silent.
Even if it wasn't explicitly stated, Xu Ling knew what it implied.
It was precisely because she knew this that she remained silent.
Xu Ling still held onto her original idea, even though reason told her that it was not advisable.
Seeing this, Kaopu couldn't help but sigh.
Silence is tantamount to tacit agreement, and it naturally understood what Xu Ling meant.
It was truly frustrating; this was the first time they'd encountered Xu Ling being so stubborn!
This is a bit tricky!
To be honest, it didn't know how to advise Xu Ling.
Logically, it should stand on Xu Ling's side without hesitation or reason. Of course, Kaopu can also make that choice now.
But if that's the case, it means that both it and Xu Ling reject the elf as a companion.
However, this choice seems incredibly foolish no matter how you look at it!
Putting aside the elves' abilities, just considering their refusal, how far could they possibly refuse?
Should we drive the elves away?
That's impossible!
The Tree of Life, the mother tree of the elves, is still here; how could the elves possibly leave!
Moreover, who among them has the ability to drive away the elves?
It is reliable and has the ability to do so. As long as it is willing to sacrifice its points, driving away the elf is a piece of cake.
However, if we ask ourselves honestly, is it really necessary for them to go to such lengths, even to the point of tearing each other apart?
Of course, I swear, it's not asking this because it's reluctant to give up its points. If it really comes to that, it will naturally spare no expense!
However, to be honest, the whole thing was just that Xu Ling was frightened, and perhaps she was really quite frightened.
Apart from that, the elf never did anything to harm anyone.
So, was it really necessary to make such a fuss?
Puzzled, Mao looked up again, his gaze landing on Xu Ling's face.
Xu Ling remained silent, just as before.
At this moment, her eyelids were slightly lowered, and her long, thick eyelashes fell like small fans, obscuring the expression in her eyes.
Unable to discern any of her thoughts, Kaopu couldn't help but softly call out, "Xu Ling."
Although the voice that was supposed to be reliable wasn't loud, it sounded like a thunderclap when it rang in Xu Ling's ears, instantly waking her up.
Xu Ling suddenly snapped back to her senses, and before she knew it, she found herself staring into Kao Pu's eyes.
In an instant, the thoughts bursting forth from Kaopu's eyes were so intense that they surged towards Xu Ling like a tidal wave, almost drowning her.
Is this really how it has to be?
Was it really necessary to make such a fuss?
The questions kept ringing in her mind, one after another, giving Xu Ling no chance to catch her breath, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
Xu Ling couldn't help but take a deep breath.
The questions swirling in my mind didn't diminish in the slightest; in fact, they forcefully suppressed my initial, dominant emotions.
Before long, reason prevailed, and the hesitation caused by emotions crumbled.
Xu Ling's decision became clearer and clearer.
She knew how she should choose.
However, those two simple words—"let go"—stuck in her throat, leaving her speechless.
Xu Ling bit her lip hard, and the stinging pain made her speechless.
Kaopu noticed all of Xu Ling's subtle changes. Seeing that her attitude had softened considerably, yet she still didn't speak, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
If things continue like this, what difference is there between her being unwilling and not wanting to do it at all!
The reliable voice urged again, "Xu Ling—"
He had barely called out Xu Ling's name when she abruptly interrupted him.
"Release her!" Xu Ling said in a deep voice. "Tree of Life, I know the elf is an accomplice you found. Release her!"
She turned around, her gaze fixed on the Tree of Life, without a trace of reluctance.
Seeing this, the Tree of Life obediently released the spirit.
The branches binding her body began to move, extremely quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Jade, who had been tightly bound, was freed.
She unconsciously moved her body to loosen her muscles, but her gaze involuntarily drifted towards Xu Ling.
Emerald raised an eyebrow, a flash of surprise crossing her dark green eyes.
She thought Xu Ling would refuse to budge!
Unexpectedly...
Jade didn't notice that her gaze lingered on Xu Ling for a long time.
Those tangible gazes made Xu Ling feel like she was being pricked by thorns.
Even though Jade meant no harm, it still made her feel uneasy.
She currently has no desire to have any communication or interaction with the elves.
any!
She didn't want to see the elves until at least today was over and she had calmed down.
Even though she herself said she would let the elf down!
So, Kaopu just watched, while Xu Ling's gaze remained fixed on her feet. Without looking up at anything else, she left her spot as if escaping and headed towards where Old John and Fei'er were.
As the distance increased, the uncomfortable feeling began to fade slowly, and Xu Ling gradually recovered. She smiled at the others in front of her to comfort them.
