148: Afya, Queen of the Elves

After the banquet concluded, Chu Yun had quite a bit to drink and originally intended to spend a romantic night with the two ladies.

However, Jin Mu suddenly came to report that Xu Nian from Misty Rain Tower had brought an Elf Clan woman to seek an audience.

After some thought, Chu Yun decided to meet him first.

In the main reception hall, Chu Yun and the two ladies sat upright, and before long, Xu Nian entered with Afuya.

"Chu Emperor."

"Two Young Misses, I apologize for disturbing you late at night," Xu Nian said with a familiar smile.

Chu Yun then asked, "Brother Xu, why have you come so late at night?"

Xu Nian explained, "I came here to introduce a friend to Chu Emperor."

"This is a Genius young lady of the Elf Clan, the only person in the Elf Clan currently with a Bloodline Awakening, Young Miss Afuya."

Afuya's gaze swept over the three of them; both the Heavenly Demoness and Meng Ruxue had a strong aura of Reincarnation about them.

However, her gaze then settled on Chu Yun: "Greetings, Chu Emperor."

"Elf Clan? Bloodline Awakening?"

Chu Yun naturally knew of the Elf Clan; among the special envoys from Misty Rain Tower who had visited before, one was from the Elf Clan.

As one of the most powerful races in the Yuan Realm, most of the Elf Clan members live on Elf Island, and no force dares to easily provoke them.

In the Divine Continent Pure Land, their reputation is immense, even on par with Misty Rain Tower!

However, he was somewhat unclear about what 'Bloodline Awakening' of the Elf Clan represented.

Noticing Chu Yun's confusion, Meng Ruxue, who was beside him, explained, "Bloodline Awakening means that Young Miss Fuya's future achievements will undoubtedly not be lower than the Elf Clan's ancestors, possessing infinite possibilities."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yun roughly understood the meaning.

For an Elf Clan member with a Bloodline Awakening, the lower limit of their future achievements is at least the cultivation level of the Elf Clan's ancestors.

As for the upper limit, no one can predict.

Immediately, Chu Yun was startled.

That was truly terrifying; he didn't know how strong the Elf Clan's ancestors' cultivation specifically was.

But it was definitely beyond that of a Great Emperor.

That is to say, this Afuya before him would become a powerful individual surpassing a Great Emperor in the future.

"This Young Miss seems to know quite a lot about our Elf Clan."

"Bloodline Awakening indeed possesses infinite possibilities, but one must also live long enough to achieve them," Afuya said.

"Oh?"

"Do you have some unmentionable difficulty?" Meng Ruxue pressed.

"To be frank."

"My parents and my entire lineage of the clan all died on Elf Island."

"Because of my Bloodline Awakening, the high-ranking officials of Elf Island want to strip my Bloodline to study the key reason for my Bloodline Awakening, hoping to replicate it."

"I fled all the way from the Divine Continent Pure Land to here."

"Xu Nian brought me here tonight for no other reason than to seek a place of refuge with Chu Emperor," Afuya explained truthfully.

As soon as she spoke, Chu Yun and the two ladies immediately understood her purpose in coming.

Both the Heavenly Demoness and Meng Ruxue frowned and looked at Chu Yun.

This Afuya is involved in the Karma of the entire Elf Clan.

The scope of the matter is so vast that the current Great Xia Dynasty absolutely cannot handle it.

But thinking back to Jiang Taibai's strange behavior earlier, the two ladies had long felt that Chu Yun might have an even greater backer behind him.

Therefore, this decision was up to him.

They trusted Chu Yun and knew the seriousness of the matter.

If he dared to accept it, he must have a certain degree of confidence.

Chu Yun's expression was deep at this moment; Afuya and Xu Nian thought he was weighing the pros and cons.

But that was not the case.

At this moment, Chu Yun was rapidly communicating with the System: "System, are you sure?"

"Is she really the Elven Queen?"

"[System: Master, the Afuya before you can be said to be a Rebirth body carrying a wisp of the Elven Queen's memory and Soul. The moment her Bloodline Awakened, her memories also Awakened.]"

"[However, she is not the complete form of the Elven Queen; she is merely a Rebirth of a wisp of her remnant Soul.]"

"A remnant Soul Rebirth, that's enough!"

"The Elven Queen, she is the ancestor of the Elf Clan; she created the Elf Clan. I heard that Elf Island, where countless Elf Clan members reside, was formed from a bone of the Elven Queen."

"If I can bring her under my command, the foundation of Great Xia can be further enhanced!" Chu Yun secretly decided.

"But this is also outrageous; those high-ranking officials of Elf Island actually want to strip their ancestor's Bloodline. This is even worse than patricide or fratricide!"

"[System: Master, why don't you talk about taking her into your harem?]

"[Imagine experiencing the taste of the Elven Queen, who once shook the world in the initial epoch of the Yuan Realm, when you spend your wedding night with her... Oh, oh, oh, the System is excited for you.]"

Chu Yun: ... System, you are too lewd.

"But I can consider your suggestion."

After a back-and-forth exchange with the System in his mind, Chu Yun's expression was calm and natural, and he spoke steadily: "Then how do you think this Emperor can protect you?"

"The Elf Clan is such a vast race; this Karma... is a bit difficult to accept."

Afuya's voice was elegant and calm as she replied, "Chu Emperor is a person of great Luck. In my opinion, Chu Emperor may very well be able to stand above the Elf Clan."

Afuya and Chu Yun were unusually in sync at this moment; neither of them mentioned the words 'Thatched Cottage', both pretending not to know.
