308 – The St. Moonlight City
Yang Feng looked at the imperial capital of the elven empire, the St. Moonlight City, and couldn’t help exclaiming: “What a beautiful city!”
The St. Moonlight City was a luxuriant, extremely wide and tall ginormous tree that extended without end. This towering tree was called skyway ancient tree, and it was a battleship of the high elven annihilation army dispatched from the Sandra Plane.
This skyway ancient tree was badly damaged in the battle of gods. In the end, in order to protect the elves on the Feisuo Plane, it was left in the secular world by the gods of the elven divine system and became the capital of elves.
There were numerous branches surrounding the St. Moonlight City, on which grew all kinds of fantastic and extremely beautiful flowers.
The sunshine that sprinkled onto the branches and leaves of the skyway ancient trees was reflected and turned into bright moonlight, which in turn scattered over the earth.
Under the shine of the bright moonlight, beautiful elves riding silver pegasi and noble and pure unicorns, whom only pure maidens were allowed to approach, shuttled to and fro and scampered about the skyway ancient tree, painting a beautiful, fairy-tale-like picture.
Silver pegasi were winged demonic beasts capable of flight. Reportedly, these silver pegasi had unicorn bloodline. They could fly with elven warriors on their back for 100 to 200 kilometers without pause. However, due to the challenging reproduction and the huge consumption of food, which had to be a special feed to boot, the elven empire had no more than 20,000 silver pegasi.
When Faldina and the 3 Sacred Swordsmen saw the St. Moonlight City, they revealed looks of shock in their eyes. The beautiful scenery was simply shocking.
Elves were a foreign race to the Feisuo Plane. After they came to the Feisuo Plane, they had a conflict with the gods of the Feisuo Plane that broke out into a war.
On the Feisuo Plane, human divine systems had the most gods. At the time, many elven gods died at the hands of human gods. Similarly, a large number of human gods died at the hands of elven gods. There was a deep hatred between both parties.
Thus, from time to time, human gods still issued divine decrees to organize human expeditionary forces to fight the elves. There was also a shadow of human gods behind the hunting of elves.
The relationship between humans and elves was not friendly. In fact, elves were fairly isolated on the Feisuo Plane. Although elves had been slowly integrating on the Feisuo Plane in the recent millennia, but their relationship with humans was still very tense.
Very few humans were able to see the St. Moonlight City with their own eyes. However, due to elven slaves, humans were quite clear that there was the very beautiful St. Moonlight City in the abyss of the Elven Woods.
Karina showed off proudly: “Beautiful, isn’t it! This is my home!”
Yang Feng praised sincerely: “It really is beautiful!”
“Let’s go in!” Karina smiled smugly. Like a lively deer, she skipped towards the St. Moonlit City.
When they approached the St. Moonlight City, Yang Feng, by relying on his frightening perception of a level-3 Warlock, felt a sense of danger from the city.
Menacing killing intent came from the flowers above the dense foliage of the St. Moonlight City. At the same time, numerous flood-dragon-like, bulky roots buried deep underground gave Yang Feng a very dangerous feeling.
Simultaneously, he felt auras of numerous formidable elves concealed amid the dense foliage. Obviously, those elves had formidable battle prowess.
When Karina arrived in front of the St. Moonlight City, she said in a voice pleasing to the ear: “I am Karina. These humans are my friends. Please open the gate!”
Moonlight containing fluctuations of divine power fell from the sky and landed on Yang Feng and company.
When the moonlight disappeared, Yang Feng’s party was nowhere to be seen.
Yang Feng’s vision blurred, and then he found himself in a place where he could see tree houses and close to 5-centimeter-tall grass as far as the eye could reach. The air was filled with the fragrance of vegetation mixed with the fragrance of flowers. At the same time, by relying on his keen perception of a level-3 Warlock, Yang Feng could tell that magic energy here was very dense. Practicing all kinds of secret methods here would yield excellent results.
When Yang Feng’s party appeared, they were bombarded by curious gazes from all sides.
Yang Feng also looked around curiously.
Clearly, the elves in the St. Moonlight City were different from the elves he saw in the Ancient Green Forest City. Most of the elves in the St. Moonlight City looked at them with curiosity, apathy, and even caution. The elves in the Ancient Green Forest City, on the other hand, seem to like human contact very much.
A group of armed elven guards descended from the sky on winged, silver pegasi and landed in front of Karina and company.
Belinda dismounted her silver pegasus and came before Karina and company, saying: “Your Highness, I was instructed to invite you and Duke Ian to the Moonlight Palace.”
Belinda’s gaze fell on Yang Feng, and her beautiful eyes showed a complex look.
When they first met, Yang Feng was merely the city master of a small city in the Red Earth Wasteland. City masters of his caliber could be seen everywhere on the Feisuo Plane. The only thing commendable about him was that he established a city in the forsaken Red Earth Wasteland. Now, however, Yang Feng was the Duke of the Morrince Empire, which was one of the 2 major human empires. He held great power and people under his rule numbered more than 10 million. He became a major bigwig among humans
The population of elves was only 40 million people. In other words, in terms of population alone, the population under Yang Feng’s rule was already one-fourth of the elven empire. This should not be underestimated.
The lower class elves may not have heard of Yang Feng’s name, but the majority of the upper class elves knew of his name by now.
Although elves secluded themselves in the Elven Woods, but after operating for millennia, they had already infiltrated various major factions of the Feisuo Plane and had numerous informers. Naturally, they gathered all kinds of information.
Belinda shuddered at the thought that this mild-looking person cruelly flooded a province of the Morrince Empire, and then took the opportunity to migrate the refugees from that province to his fiefs.
Except for spoiled silk pants like Benedict, no one at the top of the elven empire dared to show contempt in front Yang Feng.
It was precisely because Yang Feng was so formidable that Elder Erza spoke to him so amicably.
Otherwise, if an ordinary person, even a Legend rank powerhouse, were to injure Benedict at the entrance to the Elven Woods, they would have been eliminated at once.
Karina nimbly jumped on the back of a silver pegasus and spoke with a candid smile: “Okay! Let’s go! By the way, Belinda, Ian has brought some goods to the Ancient Green Forest City. Send someone to go get them.”
Belinda replied: “Yes, Your Highness!”
Yang Feng’s group of 5 people also jumped onto the backs silver pegasi.
The silver pegasi flapped their wings, and the magic runes on their wings sparkled. Suddenly, wind enveloped the silver pegasi, and they flew toward the sky.
Sensing the wind around the silver pegasus, Yang Feng raised his eyebrows. He had solved a doubt in his mind: “What a strong wind. Only Knight rank powerhouses and upwards can withstand this wind. Besides, being blown by this wind for long periods of time is not good for your health. No wonder elves don’t use these silver pegasi for long distance journeys.
Although the silver pegasi could fly in the sky, but the wind they employed was too strong. Without a magic shield, the frightening wind blowing for a prolonged period of time could even erode the health of a Knight rank powerhouse. Only someone like Yang Feng, a Warlock with a life force cover, could easily withstand the erosion of the wind. Thus, the silver pegasi could only serve as a vehicle in the St. Moonlight City, or be used as an unexpected trump card in battle, yet they could not be used as a long distance vehicle.
There were countless beautiful and fantastic tree houses inhabited by elves in the St. Moonlight City.
The St. Moonlight City resembled an orderly, beautiful, and artistic forest.
In the center of the St. Moonlight City, there was a hundreds-of-meters-tall tree with a luxuriant canopy shrouded in bright moonlight.
The giant tree shrouded in moonlight was a moonlight tree, a most valuable treasure of the elves. The moonlight tree was the dwelling of royal elves.
The silver pegasi descended and landed on a thick branch.
The thick branch of the moonlight tree was very spacious, it could accommodate 4 carriages standing side-by-side. Even if your riding skill was no good, the silver pegasi could still easily land on the branch.
Belinda pointed to a pretty, petite, flat-chested elven girl and said: “Duke Ian, Her Highness Karina has to get ready. Please go with Shana.”
Yang Feng nodded: “Okay!”
Karina waved at Yang Feng and showed a sweet smile: “See you later!”
After she said that, Karina was escorted by Belinda and the other elves into the depths of the moonlight tree.
Shana smiled politely at Yang Feng and spoke: “Duke Ian, please come with me!”
Yang Feng nodded and followed Shana into the moonlight tree.
Inside the moonlight tree, there was cool moonlight everywhere. The moonlight contained extremely pure magic energy. Immersed in the moonlight, Yang Feng could clearly feel his physical constitution being strengthened.
