YM778.TV Chapter 378 Good News
But still, when he observed the Elf Queen, Seth was able to feel even a bit of excitement coming from her.
"Why do I feel like you just had a sudden change in your mood? Could it be related to..." He asked her about it, but he already had a few guesses on his mind. But most of them were related to what had happened between him and Lan Xue, and it didn\'t make any sense for her to be acting like that, if it were because of them.
"Yes, you\'re right. How can I not be excited? Do you know how hard it would be for us to fight with the people from the Illusive Ethereal Sanctuary, without using that new power you taught us?"
Lan Xue got interested in her words as well and before long, she got herself attentively listening to Arwen\'s speech.
"Heh! Their abilities are heavily dependent on that mysteriously strong bloodline coursing through their veins and they rarely rely on other means to battle their enemies. However, who would\'ve thought that their strength, would also be their weakness?"
"Why do you say so?" Lan Xue was the one that asked first.
Seth got impressed that she was not acting all reclusive near Arwen and couldn\'t help but feel even more respect, for the Elf Queen. Even though they had started it as enemies, Arwen was able to dissolve that initial enmity between them, very quickly.
The Elf Queen looked towards the ice princess and said: "Well... Basically, their bloodline powers, that mysterious purple mist they use to create illusions, is going to be useless before our Soul Sense."
"!!!" Suddenly, as if the understanding had dawned upon her, Lan Xue started to realize lots of things.
"So, that\'s why you..."
Arwe smiled and said: "Heh... Did you think I would tell you to sacrifice yourself for that beast, if it weren\'t for that? Hah! Even though I\'m not his official wife, I\'m still a bit jealous of him and I wouldn\'t just throw any other women on his lap for nothing. At least now, we have a considerable advantage against the Illusive Ethereal Sanctuary."
Lan Xue had willingly walked towards that trap, as she was desperate to acquire more means and end up being the winner of the upcoming battle. But even so, she disliked how she had been influenced into taking that decision and couldn\'t help but act very differently from normal.
"Don\'t you fear that I will steal him from you?"
"You...? I doubt you even know how to properly satisfy his needs."
Seth\'s eyes widened, but he could only quietly hear the discussion between those two Mana Sovereigns. Even though he had noticed that there were no malicious intents behind their words, he felt like he would be utterly destroyed, if he were to try stopping those two women.
Their bickering words, seemed more like two rivals trying to get the upper hand in a battle of attrition, where no one was able to interfere.
Lan Xue realized that she was getting out of her character and could only return to her ice world, where nothing seemed to faze her. She understood that the Soul Sense was the perfect weapon against the Sanctuary Master and without Arwen\'s little push, she would have never done those crazy things and would have never acquired it either.
Suddenly, Arwen resumed talking, bring them back to the initial topic.
"However, I\'m not just happy because of that, but because of a secondary thing."
"Hm? What happened?" Seth asked with interest.
Arwen smiled at him and said: "Our journey might be shorter than we had previously anticipated. I found out that there is a teleportation array in a city a few hundreds of kilometers away from here. Do you know where it leads to?"
Seth shook his head, waiting for the answer.
"To a hidden passage in the outskirts of the Purple Illusory Forest!"
"What?! Why would someone put a teleportation array on that place?" Seth asked, since he knew a thing or two about that forest, from the books he read while in the Demonic Shadow Royal Clan.
It was a desolate illusory place, filled with a deceiving mist, that could elude the senses of a Mana Perception Realm cultivator with ease.
Naturally, that forest was not formed by any natural means, but came to be after the remaining energy from inside the Illusive Ethereal Sanctuary, filled the whole area, transforming the entire environment into something ominous.
Not only it was a mysterious and hazy environment, but it was also filled with crafty beasts. Just those two dangerous scenarios were able to make anyone stay away from such places; however, it seems like Arwen found someone crazy enough to set a teleportation array around that area.
It must be noted, that a haunted forest like that, would have many layers till someone could get to its core. But even so, just the outskirts, where the teleportation array was set, was already a very spooky and dangerous area, filled with beasts.
However, for people like Seth, who had a strong Soul Sense, it could be considered the best spot to silently approach the borders of the Illusive Ethereal Sanctuary territory. They considered it to be the safest border and the security around that area, was also the weakest one.
After all, no one would dare to cross that whole forest, where only death existed, just to launch an attack against them. Actually, they were so convicted about that ominous area, that they considered it as their backyard; a backyard the elders and disciples didn\'t dare to carelessly enter.
