Chapter 437 Vampires and Western Satan (25)
Hearing this, Lumina's delicate face turned pale. "Wait a minute."
After saying that, she turned to look at Sheng Wu and Lucius, her face apologetic, "Sorry, it seems that my original plan of asking you to keep a low profile needs to be reconsidered."
Sheng Wu curled his lips and looked at her with a half-smile. "It's okay. Since we're already here, let's go meet him. After all... the Elf King should want us to be in trouble more than anyone else."
You know, Lucius was created in the image of God, and the Elf King was also created by God, so he must know the meaning of Lucius's face.
This trip should be safe and sound.
Hearing this, Lumina relaxed her brows, her expression slightly cold. "Then I'll have to inconvenience you into coming with me to the palace."
Sheng Wu smiled tolerantly without saying anything.
Lucius also saw the situation clearly. It was not a question of whether he wanted to leave or not, but he didn't say anything. He just raised his hand and patted Sheng Wu's forearm.
"Lillian, it's okay, I will protect you." He looked at Sheng Wu to comfort her.
But Sheng Wu just twitched the corner of her mouth, glanced at him with some disgust, and smiled with her face but not her eyes.
"Well, you better protect yourself."
This idiot didn't even know he was being sold.
Then the three of them were escorted by a team of first-level silver guards, marching through the streets to the center of the Earth Elf Kingdom, the palace.
But this time, the carriage was driven by a first-level silver guard named Hill, and Lumina sat between Shengwu and Lucius.
"Sister, don't worry. My father is very kind and he won't do anything to you."
Lumina raised her hand and tugged at Sheng Wu's sleeve, whispering to her in her ear.
Sheng Wu raised an eyebrow, but didn't look at her. Instead, he continued to look at the characteristic buildings of the Elf Kingdom and the onlookers around him, and said in a calm tone.
"Which eye of yours saw that I was afraid."
"..." Lumina's face stiffened slightly after receiving the kind reminder, but then she smiled again. "Yeah, it seems like my sister never worries about anything. It really makes me feel safe."
This sentence made Sheng Wu look away and glance at her, his eyes smiling, "Is that so? I'll ask you to follow me closely from now on."
Lumina's eyes paused, then she smiled, "I'm just sticking close to my sister." As she spoke, she raised her hand and affectionately put her arm around Shengwu's arm in an intimate manner.
The two of them were chatting here, with an undercurrent surging, and suddenly there was a clear and stupid voice of curiosity beside them.
Lucius opened his big, blinking eyes and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Why didn't anyone communicate with him? He was still worried about what would happen next. It felt like the elves' kingdom was indeed much more powerful than humans. There were not only weapon forging shops on this street, but also various potion shops.
As soon as these words were spoken, they both glanced at Lucius, who was outside the plot, on the left. Then Lumina rolled her eyes without disguising it. She moved her butt far away from him and moved closer to Sheng Wu.
"You want to listen to what girls say?"
Sheng Wu agreed seriously, "Well, it's a whisper, you can't listen."
"...Okay." Lucius was a little depressed. Why did he feel like he was being disliked?
The last group of people said nothing more, and went to a huge and prosperous palace with different thoughts.
The carriage entered the palace gate and the three were asked to get off because the palace was only accessible on foot.
The team of first-level silver guards also stopped at the door and let Hill take the three of them to the palace to receive guests.
The buildings here are basically one-story, with wide pillars and a height of four or five meters.
Sheng Wu said nothing and followed them to the outside of a temple.
"Your Highness Princess Lumina, the Elf King and several princes and princesses are waiting for you."
A guard outside said to Lumina.
Hearing this, Lumina's face slightly stiffened. She nodded and then looked at Sheng Wu and Lucius.
"Let's go in."
"Um."
Hill was not qualified to enter and was waiting at the door.
The gate was open, and Lumina led the two into the palace.
After entering and walking around a stone gate, Sheng Wu lowered her eyes and could instantly feel countless gazes looking at them. The most oppressive gaze came from the center of the hall.
It goes without saying that it is the Elf King.
The entire hall was filled with an extremely low and cold oppression, which made people dare not breathe heavily and could only lower their eyes and not look around.
Although Lucius is kind and loving, his aura is not weak at all. He even looks forward calmly.
The three of them walked to the front of the hall.
Lumina was the first to salute the Elf King who was seated at the center. "Father."
But Sheng Wu and Lucius remained indifferent and just stood there.
The hall was silent as time passed by second by second. Lumina kept bowing until she got a response, not wanting to show any disrespect.
This seems to be a warning from the Elf Kingdom.
A few minutes passed.
Just as Lumina bowed her head, her legs slightly bent and she could no longer control herself from shaking secretly.
"This is the Elven Kingdom's way of hospitality. It seems that there is no need for us to stay any longer. After all, the mission entrusted to us by God has not been completed yet."
A cold, lazy and oppressive voice suddenly sounded, with a hint of mockery.
Lumina only felt a force pulling her arm. She turned her head slightly and saw Sheng Wu had walked up to her and stood shoulder to shoulder with her, holding her arm with his left hand in front of everyone.
Lumina's pupils moved slightly, but she didn't say anything.
After Sheng Wu finished speaking, she was about to turn around and pull Lucius away.
It was at this moment that the Elf King on the high seat in the center finally spoke.
"Wait a minute."
"I just saw a familiar face and was distracted, so I forgot to greet you all."
After a pause, the Elf King, whose hair had turned slightly white, looked at Lumina.
"Lumina, you and your two distinguished guests should sit at the head of the table."
"Yes, father." Lumina nodded obediently, then glanced at Sheng Wu and the other one.
When Sheng Wu saw the Elf King walking down the stairs, he didn't say anything else. He just pulled Lucius, who also regarded him as his backbone, and sat with Lumina in the first seat on the left side of the hall.
After the two sat down, the Elf King continued to speak.
"You said that you are a new species created by God, humans."
"What evidence do you have?"
Lucius looked up at him and was about to say something, but Sheng Wu grabbed his arm and spoke first.
"You should be the one who knows best whether there is any evidence or not. If you didn't know our identities, how could you let us sit in this position?"
This was undoubtedly a bit rude and provocative. She really didn't even use the honorific "you".
Opposite Sheng Wu, the man in extremely gorgeous clothes frowned and looked at her angrily. It must be the eldest prince of the Elf Kingdom, Homiga.
But without the Elf King's permission, he didn't dare to say anything first.
Even Lumina felt that Sheng Wu was very bold. It would have been fine if he had been so rude and mean to her, but he actually dared to provoke her father. Well done...
Lumina lowered her head and poured Sheng Wu a glass of fruit wine without saying a word, her eyes full of playful thought.
Especially when she glanced around, she saw that the queen, the eldest prince and her two sisters were all looking at her with gloomy faces as she sat in a position higher than them, with a subtle but unnoticeable curve of sarcasm on her lips.
Lucius was also shocked by Sheng Wu's words, but he knew his limits and did not disturb her at this time.
