"Awu, another two hundred kilometers is the dragon clan's palace."
The carriage was moving quickly on a road with sparse vegetation and mostly Gobi desert surrounding it.
As soon as Lucifer left, Shengwu continued on her journey with Lucius and Rosaya.
Lucius never mentioned anything about Lucifer from beginning to end, as if what happened just now had never happened.
Rosaya in the carriage was puzzled. Lucius was obviously Lillian's husband. The archangel was so provocative, so why didn't Lucius use his own status to suppress him? Shouldn't he be angry and jealous?
If it were her father, he would probably have executed the man. This is a matter of male dignity.
But Lucius was not angry, and even treated Sheng Wu with the same gentleness as before.
Hearing this, Sheng Wu held a communicator similar to a token in her hand. The communicator trembled slightly. Sheng Wu waved her hand, and the token emitted light and a line of words appeared on it.
"I have entered the palace. Wait outside the city."
This was sent to her by Lumina.
Sheng Wu lowered her head and said, "Tell me about the situation of the dragon clan."
Lucius had previously tried to practice magic among the elves, hoping that after he became stronger, the level of Saint Charm's strength that was lower than his own would increase, so that he could help her a little. Unfortunately, he could not change his bloodline to practice magic like her.
If he couldn't change his strength, then he would change his mindset. So he turned to looking through various books, trying to find ways to increase his knowledge. Listening to her questions, he introduced them without hesitation.
"The dragons' true forms are enormous, capable of breathing fire and moving mountains. However, due to the heavy construction of defensive cities, they all transform into humanoid forms to reduce the workload within the Dragon Clan's royal city. However, some will occupy a mountain range and transform into their true forms in caves to hibernate. These mountains generally surround the Dragon Clan's royal city, serving as the first line of defense."
"We are now on the outskirts of the mountain range. There might be dormant dragons nearby."
Hearing this, Sheng Wu turned around and looked up at the desolate mountains around her. There were mountain walls everywhere, covered with light red soil and sand, and the air was clearly dry and hot, with little moisture.
She said expressionlessly, "It's still two hundred kilometers to the Dragon King City. There's not much vegetation around here. I'm afraid the white horse will starve to death before we even get halfway."
"..." Lucius frowned slightly. He was also aware of this problem. "So we may not be able to get to Lumina in time."
Originally, the time would have been just enough if they had traveled for a few days, but Sheng Wu had been away for a few days, and he had wasted a few days waiting for her in the forest.
Although he was worried, Lucius knew that Sheng Wu would not do anything without confidence.
Sure enough, Sheng Wu listened to his concerns but just made a light comment.
"It's not too late. Timing is what matters most."
Hearing this, Lucius looked at her inquiringly, but Sheng Wu didn't say anything more. Instead, she got up and went into the carriage to rest, leaving him alone to drive.
Seeing this, Lucius lowered his eyes slightly and withdrew his gaze. Since she didn't say to stop, he continued to drive, but his eyes were deep and slightly focused, as if he was thinking about something unstable.
Inside the carriage.
Rosaya, who had been sticking to the curtain and quietly listening to the conversation between the two, was frightened by the curtain being lifted unexpectedly. She immediately retracted her stretched neck and sat back in her original position obediently.
Seeing Sheng Wu coming in, her heart beat faster. She looked at her with some fear and said tentatively.
"You kidnapped me so that I could marry in Lumina's place?"
After being taught a lesson by Sheng Wu once, she had learned her lesson and no longer dared to act arrogantly or domineeringly towards him. She restrained her edge and cooperated very well along the way without crying or making a fuss.
After Sheng Wu came in with a bent waist, he sat opposite Rosaya, raised his sparkling black pupils and looked at the pampered elf girl in front of him. He saw that she was afraid and frightened of him, but when he looked at her directly, his eyes avoided her and his face flushed slightly.
Sheng Wu's eyes moved slightly, and she curled her lips, her voice cold and smiling, as if she was teasing a kitten.
"You're not as pretty as Lumina. Do you think you can replace her?"
These words immediately hit Rosaya, who had always despised Lumina. She suddenly plucked up the courage to refute Sheng Wu as if someone had stepped on her tail.
"Impossible! I'm much prettier than Lumina! She's just an illegitimate daughter. How can she be compared to a princess born to a queen like me? She's a thief! She and her mother are thieves who stole our father's love!"
Rosaya was quite excited. Apparently, her weakness was compared to Lumina.
"Oh, she's an illegitimate daughter, yes." Sheng Wu deliberately said slowly and seriously, "But she is indeed much prettier than you. Her eyes are purer and more beautiful than yours."
After a pause, she glanced up and down at Rosaya, "Yeah, her figure is better than yours too."
"No wonder the Elf King didn't ask you to marry him, but instead asked Lumina to."
"You! Shut up! You're talking nonsense! Lumina is not as good as me! She came here to marry because of my mother's scheme, not because she's prettier than me!"
Listening to Sheng Wu constantly saying that she was not as good as Lumina, especially the way she looked at her like a commodity, the usually proud princess felt her self-esteem was trampled upon. Rosaya's face turned red. Her hands and feet were tied, and she could not get up or move. She could only tremble with anger.
Sitting on the ground, she glared at Sheng Wu in anger and said angrily in a delicate voice.
"I am the princess born to the Elf King and Queen. I am the best! Why should she compete with me for my father's favor? She is not as pretty as me... woo woo..."
As she spoke, Rosaya's anxiety and fear after being kidnapped were instantly ignited. A feeling of grievance suddenly surged in her heart, and her eyes became hot.
I was moved to tears by Shengwu's words...
She couldn't argue with Sheng Wu and couldn't say anything too dirty, so she could only sit on the ground and sob. The last word she said was tinged with tears, but in the end she just burst into tears.
“…”
Sheng Wu was silenced by the deafening wailing. She just wanted to tease him but she didn't expect to make him cry.
Oh, what Lumina said about her was right, her stupidity was not worthy of her scheming.
[Hahaha, host, you are so vicious that you don't even let a young girl go.]
Heituanzi found it amusing. This was the first time that Shengwu looked confused after bullying someone.
【roll! 】
Lucius, who was outside the carriage, was also shocked by the sudden terrified cry. His hand holding the reins of the carriage shook, causing the carriage to shake.
He turned around with a frown on his forehead and glanced at the invisible situation inside the carriage. It was not difficult to guess that Sheng Wu's bad taste was acting up again. She liked to tease people and step on other people's pain.
But Lucius knew that Sheng Wu knew his limits, so his forehead jumped and he chose to remain silent.
Rosaya is a little stupid, so stupid that she might not even fit into Sheng Wu's plan, so she should be fine.
