Chapter 15. Orders The Ruler

A while had passed, no matter how many hours it had been, Elder You was still standing there waiting anxiously.

Suddenly the sound of footsteps came from outside the room. A man wearing a maroon robe stepped into the hall. His stern face, had such a sturdy jaw, carved a nose and eyebrows that were almost flawless, his gray hair and matching beaded eyes were cold and untouchable.

He was the ruling Lord of this world, someone both respected and feared at the same time. He is also the last descendant of the demon nation, a nation whose blood flows the power of all creatures. Lord 'Gu Yie' once all beings know his name.

It seemed that Bai Xue's bodyguard was following behind him. A little story about him, that after the events of 700 years ago, when he actually lost the person he loved so much, Queen 'Yu Yi', a figure who previously had a warm attitude and high tolerance towards all beings, suddenly turned cold and cruel.

From then on, every mistake the slightest would have a tragic end. The man who used to be greatly admired and respected turned into a man who was respected and feared.

"Your servant greets your Majesty," said Elder You, bowing to salute someone who had filled the empty throne before.

"Say it!" a cold voice reached Elder You's ears, only one word and it had already managed to make him break out into a cold sweat and tremble. The oppressive aura emanating from Lord Gu made it difficult for his body to breathe.

"Your servant answers, allow this humble servant to tell you a few things first, but before that, your servant asks for a noble forgiveness in order to forgive us for what we did without the noble knowledge," said Elder You with one breath. He had given up on having to accept Lord Gu's wrath over something he was about to say.

The man he was talking to only raised an eyebrow, stared lazily, there was no desire to respond.

"Back to that time, 700 years ago ..." said Elder You began, stammering a little. Lowered his voice, hoping that at this time no one could hear him but at the same time, he also hoped that Lord Gu would hear it.

He knew very well that what he was going to say was something very sensitive to the ruler. It was evident that, just saying a few words, an oppressive aura suddenly emerged from the ruler's body, making it difficult for him to breathe, and even now he was vomiting out a mouthful of blood. Elder You had completely resigned, he returned to trying to continue what he wanted to say without any unnecessary movements such as cleaning the blood stain on his mouth.

"After what the queen has done, all beings become offendedthe sacrifice she made left a feeling of tightness in the hearts of all beings. The black magicians who have also disappeared since then always make us uneasy and think that it is not impossible that one day they will appear. Feelings of restlessness and guilt have haunted us ever since. That feeling led all of us to create an object capable of detecting the life energy of those black magicians, just in case they came back, we could prepare and take revenge. However, that crystal ball-shaped object recently suddenly detected an enormous amount of energy and made the crystal ball explode due to our lack of preparation. That life energy was very different from that of black magicians in the past. We consider that reporting it to your majesty is the right thing to do, because apart from your majesty and the queen, no one else has that much energy, "Elder You explained at length, then heaved a sigh of relief at the slight oppressive aura that surrounded his bodyreduced.

When he felt his breathing that had gotten a little loose, Elder You continued.

"If your Majesty has an order, your servant has gathered several men to carry it out."

Lord Gu who was listening to all of them only moved one hand to support his chin. silence expressionless. A faint glint appeared in his eyes. A flash that no creature could detect. He was silent in his position for a long time, no one knew what he was thinking.

Elder You who didn't get any response was already drenched in cold sweat that continued to flow down his body.

"Where is it?" Suddenly a cold voice reached Elder You's ears, making the old man feel as if a grim reaper was stroking the nape of his neck.

"Your servant replied, that energy comes from the glorious forbidden forest" replied Elder You.

When he heard the name of the forbidden forest mentioned, Bai Xue's bodyguard who was only silent and stood a few steps away from Lord Gu couldn't hide him shock, suddenly remembering the human girl they helped that night. And Bai Xue's little reaction didn't go unnoticed by Lord Gu.

"Bai Xue!"

Hearing her name, made Bai Xue's bodyguard kneel at once.

"Your subordinate is here, noble,"

"Explain!" Bai Xue had already guessed that the slight reaction of his body had previously been seen by Lord Gu.

"What do you mean your highness? Your subordinates really can't understand."

"What happens in the forbidden forest while you guys are running errands? Did Elder You say have anything to do with Bai Mo's barely remaining life energy state?" asked Lord Gu

At such a question, Bai Xue panicked. He didn't know what kind of answer to give, there was no way he could say that they were helping a human.

If Bai Xue had a choice, he would rather dig into the ground and bury himself without having to answer the question.

"Your subordinates answered .. that night when Bai Mo and I had just finished a noble assignment, there was a slight conflict between us, causing us to fight and making me seriously injured, in the end Bai Mo healed me and drained his life energy," Bai Xue replied immediatelyfeels like a very smart person because he managed to find an excuse that just popped into his head. After this, he would really punish himself for daring to lie.

Lord Gu raised an eyebrow, the corner of his lips lifted, grinning.

"Bai Xue!"

"Servant here, noble."

"You, Elder You and his people immediately explore all areas of the forbidden forest, report to me if anything is strange," said Lord Gu giving orders, then releasing his aura forced all the creatures in the room to kneel on the floor at that moment. an extremely domineering and very sinister aura.

"And if you find a human, KILL!" he added, grinning.

Lord Gu wouldn't tolerate it if a human dared to step into the forbidden forest, just killing a few humans wouldn't disturb the balance of this world, right?

Ya....The existence of the human race plays a very important role in the balance of this world. That is why the human race is still around today. Even though some of them did something deviant, no one dared to eliminate that race, to eliminate one race, even if only the human race, the Fairy race or any other race would disturb the balance of the world.

So that the only thing they can do is hate the human race, because wiping out that race will not be possible.
