In my past life, I often saw the existence of elves in various novels and movies. They were the kindest, most beautiful, and most elegant race in the world, which made countless otaku fantasize.
"What, is that not allowed?" Qiao Xueying rolled her eyes at him, annoyed.
“It’s not that it’s impossible, it’s just that your ears aren’t pointed.” Zuan asked curiously, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear.
Qiao Xueying slapped his hand away, her expression not pleasant.
At this moment, Mi Li's voice rang out: "Judging from her condition, she should be a half-elf, that is, a child born to an elf and a human."
Qiao Xueying's face grew paler and paler, clearly this matter had always been her deepest pain, and she had often been unable to lift her head because of it since she was a child.
To everyone's surprise, Zuan laughed and said, "Being mixed-race is great. Mixed-race people are often the most beautiful, and they combine the best qualities of both their parents in terms of intelligence and aptitude."
Qiao Xueying was taken aback. In the past, everyone who knew her identity would call her a bastard. Hearing the word "mixed-race" for the first time made her feel a sense of warmth and comfort.
"Thank you," Qiao Xueying said softly. In all these years, he was the first person who didn't discriminate against her, but instead found so many reasons to comfort her.
Zuan laughed and said, "No need to thank me. What do you think of me? How about we get together and have a mixed-race baby? I guarantee the boy will be handsome and the girl will be stunningly beautiful."
Qiao Xueying: "..."
I take back my previous assessment; this guy is as shameless as ever.
"If I remember correctly, the Elven race's 'Mirror Flower Water Moon' allows the true form to hide several miles away for escape, but you're still here, just for this shameless man?" Mi Li's mocking voice rang out.
Zu An stared at Qiao Xueying in surprise, and Qiao Xueying immediately became anxious: "How could I do this for him! Of course it's for Miss Chu, whom I consider a sister. Get out of her body right now, or I'll risk my life to make sure you suffer!"
Hearing the other party's blustering but cowardly threat, Mi Li laughed loudly, the laughter so loud that the underground palace shook slightly. After a while, she suddenly stopped laughing: "You think you can take me on?"
Qiao Xueying's face was pale. The laughter from the other party just now clearly indicated that her strength far exceeded her own, and she had no chance of winning against her.
“Me too!” Zuan walked up to her and gently took her hand.
Perhaps it was because she was about to die and had no more scruples, or perhaps it was a habit from when the two of them held hands to break through the three great seals. This time, she did not resist the other's hand-holding, but instead felt a sense of security.
Mi Li: "..."
What use is someone of your rank three, who is only a third-grade soldier?
Zu An took the opportunity to comfort Qiao Xueying in a low voice: "Don't be afraid. Because her soul has left her body, her strength has been greatly reduced compared to before. Moreover, since that poison is so potent, she might be the one who can't withstand it after we hold on for a while."
Previously, Qiao Xueying's Thorn Guardian was almost instantly defeated by Zhang Han, but just now it actually withstood a burst of Mi Li's sword energy.
It's important to know that at her peak, Zhang Han was practically powerless against Mi Li.
Qiao Xueying also realized what was happening and her spirits lifted.
Mi Li snorted coldly: "No need to whisper, I can hear you. That's right, my strength has indeed been greatly reduced, but I'm still more than capable of dealing with the two of you."
After saying that, he flicked his sleeve, and sword energy shot out directly.
This time, her sword energy wasn't as dense. The two instinctively dodged, and were quickly separated by the sword energy. Then, the scattered sword energy that was attacking Qiao Xueying suddenly merged into a huge crescent-shaped energy blast, which instantly struck her.
Qiao Xueying screamed in agony, spitting out a mouthful of blood as she collapsed to the ground.
Mi Li controlled the power perfectly, injuring her severely without making her feel like her life was in danger, so that she was reluctant to use her last life-saving "Mirror Flower Water Moon" technique, lest she take the opportunity to escape and reveal her secret.
Just as she had expected, Qiao Xueying was reluctant to use that last precious opportunity.
Mi Li sneered. Although each strike was not fatal, several strikes in succession would be enough to send her to the underworld.
By the time Qiao Xueying realized it, it was too late.
She was completely unable to move, and couldn't even mobilize her energy to activate "Mirror Flower Water Moon". She could only watch helplessly as another huge sword aura slashed down.
Just then, a figure threw himself on top of her, blocking the sword for her.
The sword energy struck his back, and Zu An coughed up a mouthful of blood. Qiao Xueying stared blankly at the man on top of her, speechless for a moment.
"What a loving couple!" Mi Li sneered. "Then let's die together."
Another sword strike came down, this time with a massive amount of sword energy, clearly intended to hack the two to death in a flurry and resolve the problem once and for all.
"Run!" Qiao Xueying panicked. She knew that if the other person stayed, not only would they not be able to save her, but they would both be cut into countless pieces.
"How could I abandon you at a time like this?" Zuan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, smiling quite casually, but he wasn't so relaxed in his heart. He was rapidly circulating the Primordial Chaos Scripture to protect his body while secretly praying that the "Rich Woman's Happy Ball" would work.
His biggest worry now is that if he is cut into countless pieces, will the "Rich Woman's Happy Ball" be able to put him back together?
Puff puff puff!
Soon, all the sword energy landed on him, causing countless bloodstains to appear. Qiao Xueying's eyes were filled with tears, and she was about to cry when she suddenly froze. She realized that although the other person had become a blood-soaked figure, his body was still relatively intact, and there was no dismemberment as she had imagined.
