Upon hearing Wang Han's shouts, the surrounding mercenaries immediately lowered their heads, not daring to meet his gaze. Some mercenaries, still reeling from the events of yesterday, were pulled away by their companions to look elsewhere. No one dared to provoke Wang Han, whose backing was so immense. However, hushed whispers quickly arose and spread around them.
"The Ye family father and daughter are actually dark elves."
"Ye Yue Su is so beautiful."
“Lord Wang Han,” Ye Long spoke first, “First of all, we must apologize to you. Actually, Ye Yue Su and I are not father and daughter. I am her uncle and the only remaining member of her clan.”
"Hmm." Wang Han nodded, looking at Ye Long, waiting for him to continue.
"Ye Yue Su and I are actually Darkmoon Elves, a branch of the Dark Elves. However, the Darkmoon Elves were wiped out a thousand years ago, and their sacred tree was burned down, severing their lineage," Ye Long said, his voice filled with sorrow, tears welling in his eyes. He then gritted his teeth and said hatefully, "And the one who did all this was the Luo Lie family. For over a thousand years, they have never stopped hunting down the Darkmoon Elves. Now, only the Holy Maiden and I remain, barely clinging to life."
"We've always hoped to take revenge one day. The Adventurers' Guild's mission was issued by our clan's elders, who used almost everything they had left to issue it. Even just seeing or hearing about the destruction of the Luo Lie family would have been enough for us. Unfortunately, the two gods of the Luo Lie family have kept us from taking on this mission for thousands of years." Night Dragon continued, "Now, the Dark Moon Elf clan has been passed down through generations, and only Night Moon Su and I remain. Seeing that the Dark Moon Elf lineage is about to be completely cut off, we have no choice but to find another way to take revenge."
"Another way, that's why you deliberately approached me. But I'm just a high-ranking official, it doesn't seem worth you risking your lives. Judging from your previous actions, it seems you've already staked everything on me. Why not find a god?" Although Ye Long wasn't lying, Wang Han still asked with great curiosity.
“Potential,” Night Dragon said. “Your potential means you have a great chance of becoming a god. We two are the last generation of shadow elves, and we don’t have much time left. Besides, gods aren’t easy to find, and even if we do, they might just deceive us or even betray us.”
“I understand. I didn’t expect you to be so insightful about human nature. So instead of looking for someone untrustworthy, it’s better to find a partner with enough potential.” Wang Han nodded.
"So what are you planning to sacrifice?" Wang Han asked. With such a goal, they must have made enormous sacrifices, and Wang Han couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation.
“That’s another reason why we’re looking for you,” Night Dragon said.
