Sayabes paused for a moment, then took the handkerchief, wiped away her tears, and thanked Linafil.
Linafil shook her head and then said, "Have you also been abandoned by the Elf Goddess?"
Upon hearing this, Saiyabes looked at Linafil with some surprise, then frowned and said, "Also? Could it be that you elves were abandoned by Him? And our race too?"
Linaphile nodded and said calmly, "That's right. The Elf Goddess removed her protection from our Mother Tree, causing it to be cursed by other gods. Our poor clan was kept in the dark. If it weren't for the arrival of the Island Lord, we might never have known until our deaths, hehe."
Linafiel chuckled coldly a few times as she spoke.
Seeing that Saiyabes was somewhat puzzled, Linafiel continued, "The deal that the Elf Goddess made with other gods, such as our race, was a deal that She made with the contracted God. It was very secretive, and the mother tree has been cursed for thousands of years. It's hateful that we still believe in Her."
Upon hearing this, Saiyabes nodded and said, "So that's how it is. No wonder the invaders were able to enter our territory so easily. No wonder I didn't see any elven gods come to greet me after I became a god. I see."
Sayabes couldn't help but shed icy blue tears of blood, her divine blood. The ice elves behind her also shed red tears of blood, for they had been praying for the protection of the fairy goddess until the very last moment.
As a result, they now learn from their own people that it was their god who caused their family to be destroyed and even nearly wiped out.
Looking at the Iceberg Mother Tree, Seyabes closed her eyes with a self-deprecating smile. She knew that her original plan to resurrect her people required the assistance of the Elf Goddess; she had even prepared the summoning ritual. If it weren't for the changes on Billy's side, and his coming to check just in case, the ritual might have already begun.
Haha, now it all seems so ridiculous, pathetic, and lamentable!
......
Chen Ping glanced at them, then said to Lu Shu, "This atmosphere seems a bit off. Lu Shu, do you know what's going on?"
Deer Tree: "Ah, it seems that the lineage of Saiyabes and the others were also betrayed by the Elf Goddess, just like Linafil and the others."
Upon hearing this, Chen Ping scratched his back in confusion and said, "This is really strange. You said that the Elf Goddess is already a god-level being, so why would she betray her followers? You know, she is the only faith of the elves. I don't understand."
Deer Tree: "Island Master, you don't know either. At the level of the main gods, who knows what they are thinking? Maybe I'll understand after I break through to the main god level?"
Chen Ping: "So, does that mean we can't fight?"
Lu Shu stroked his beard: "It's highly unlikely that a fight will break out. Judging from the current situation, it's possible that Saiyabes's predicament was caused by the Elf Goddess."
Chen Ping: "This is really baffling. Is the Fairy Goddess going through menopause? Why is she doing such stupid things?"
Lu Shu shook his head and said, "Maybe."
......
With her eyes closed, Saiyabes tried to calm the anger in her heart. She had already wiped out the race that attacked them, and she thought she had avenged her great enemy, but she didn't expect there to be so many secrets behind it all.
Their faith, the elven goddess, and some unknown deity—these two true masterminds are still alive and well.
The Elf Goddess, in particular, is the most despicable. Why is her race so easily attacked? It's because after worshipping the Elf Goddess, they will be protected by divine power and prevent disasters from happening.
However, according to certain rules, if a god abandons His followers, He must give a notice, informing them that they have been abandoned by the god. In this case, it is up to the followers who have been abandoned by the god to choose to seek refuge with others or to live independently.
The Ice Elf race, however, had not received the divine decree of abandonment, so they were completely caught off guard by the sudden attack.
......
After calming her anger, Saiyabes looked at Linafil and asked, "Lady Linafil, how did you know this information?"
"Well, I'm not doubting you, but, Elf woman, well, He didn't even inform you that He had abandoned you, did he?"
Linafil: "Didn't I say? Because of the island lord's arrival, our clan was spared from disaster, but the mother tree cannot be saved."
Linafei shook her head and said, "Let's go. I'm sure you have something to discuss with the island lord now."
Upon hearing this, Saiyabes nodded: "Indeed, now is not the time to talk about this."
After saying that, Saiyabes and Linafiel walked towards Chen Ping.
Chen Ping, who was gossiping under the deer tree, was still gossiping.
Lu Shu coughed twice quickly, then whispered, "Island Master, they're here."
"Huh? Huh!" Chen Ping immediately shut up and looked over.
Looking at Saiyabeth walking over, Chen Ping asked, "It seems you've found what you were looking for."
Saiyabes nodded: "Yes, this thing is more important to me than life itself. I wonder if Your Excellency, the Island Lord, is willing to give it up?"
Chen Ping: "Well, you can discuss this with Linafeier and Lushu."
"Deer Tree! Linafil! You two discuss it first, and then report back to me once you've made your decision."
Deer Tree: "Yes, sir!"
Linafil: "Yes, Island Master!"
"Sayabes, this way please."
Chen Ping glanced at them, then started strolling around. He knew nothing about trading; he didn't even know what good stuff was, so how could he negotiate? He figured he'd leave it to Lu Shu and Linafeier; they wouldn't lose out anyway.
As he strolled around, Chen Ping came to the side of the Ice Elf Guard and began to look at him curiously.
Well, there are no ugly elves, so it's normal that ice elves are all beautiful. But ice elves are different from Linafil and the others; they are fairer-skinned, and their features look more heroic.
Looking at the bloodstains at the corners of their eyes, Chen Ping sighed inwardly. The Ice Elf's situation was far more tragic than Lina and the others'. And since there were already two rows, there was no guarantee that even more elves would be abandoned.
After wandering around for a while, Chen Ping left, much to the relief of the ice elf guards.
After leaving the Ice Elf Guards, Chen Ping went to examine the iceberg again. After careful observation, he could vaguely make out the translucent patterns of tree trunks and branches inside the iceberg.
Is this the Ice Elf's Mother Tree? Is it different from Linafil's Tree of Life? Although they are both Trees of Life, the differences are quite significant.
