C168 The Newborn Grey Valley(part Ii)

"Qi Hao?"

Athy nodded: "I would never have ascended the throne in such a short time without him."

Without even thinking about it, Ace definitely gave Qi Hao enough benefits. However, it wasn't like Ace gave it away for nothing. With Qi Hao's approval, things couldn't be done.

Zi Ling gently nodded, "Then what are you doing here?" Since he had Qi Hao's help, there wasn't much that Ace needed him for.

Accius smiled. "Firstly, because Nina heard that you had returned, she wanted me to invite you to the Royal City as guests. Secondly, I wanted to fulfill my promise.

Zi Ling smiled faintly, "A mountain cannot hold two tigers. Since Qi Hao is the first to enter the Fairy Country, I'm afraid there won't be a place for me." If Qi Hao had helped, he wouldn't have needed her at all.

"That person is too mysterious. He disappeared without a trace the moment he helped me ascend the throne. He only appeared when I was in trouble to help me deal with him." Because of this, Accius was always nervous. Now that Zi Ling had returned, if she was willing to take charge of the kingdom, he wouldn't have to worry about any counterattacks from other powers. As the years went by, the voices of opposition would naturally disappear.

"I've already helped you with what I can. You've also gotten everything you wanted. When it's time for me to fulfill my promise, I'll naturally come for you …" Zi Ling's intention to refuse was already very clear.

Athy's face turned ugly. He took two steps forward and said in an anxious tone: "You have helped me many times when I needed your help. The person I trust the most is you..." There was a trace of struggle on Ace's face. After a long while he said: "To tell you the truth, I am the illegitimate son of the old Elf King. I was born to be the reincarnation of the God of Misfortune. "Even though I have ascended to the throne now, the prophecy of that year was still spread out, some people even tried to overthrow my regime with this."

"I've already helped you with what I can. You wanting to stay on your throne is something that you need to work hard for your entire life. I can't stay by your side and help you." Zi Ling told the truth.

I know, but I need your help right now, "Arth said, seeing that Zi Ling had not yet moved," Perhaps you will be happy to make this trip to the capital yourself, I forgot to tell you, the illusion of the Elven race being opened once every fifty years will be filled with precious herbs in half a year, and many great powers will come to the Elf race. This is also why I urgently need you to return with me to the capital.

Violet Ling likes medicinal herbs, but after Ace finished speaking, her attention fell onto a few words he said.

"Powerful forces?" Zi Ling frowned.

"That's right. The great clans of the human race, the great sects, the demons, the beast clans and other kings will all come personally." Athy nodded. Although it was an invitation from him, he was very nervous. He was afraid that the current elves would not be able to suppress these big gods.

The corner of Zi Ling's lips curled up, but her eyes were still as cold as ever. "Your ambition isn't small. Aren't you afraid of bringing disaster upon yourself?"

Arth sighed. "This is the only way to strengthen the elves. However, I'm worried that I didn't arrange for Nina to be harmed. That's why I personally came to invite you to the Royal City."

"The people of the Ye Family and the Phoenix Mountain are coming?" Zi Ling didn't answer him immediately but asked a question instead.

"Once the Elf race's illusions are opened every fifty years, those who are lucky will be able to get some treasures from it. No Xuan Wu would be able to resist this kind of good fortune."

Zi Ling's eyes slightly narrowed, "Alright, I promise you. You two go first, I'll come back later."

Arth let out a sigh of relief when he heard Zi Ling loosen her lips. "Alright, then I'll wait for you in the Royal City."

"Wait, maybe there's someone you should meet." Purple Silk called out to Ace, who was about to leave.

Ace turned around, looking a little puzzled. "Oh? "Who is it?"

"Go to Paparic. Find him and you'll know." After she finished speaking, Zi Ling closed her eyes and continued her cultivation.

Ace saw that Zilch had stopped talking, so he didn't ask any further questions. He turned around and left the tree house, walking towards Paparic's residence.

After Ace left, Zi Ling opened her eyes once more, and a cold ray of light shot out from her eyes. She finally agreed to head to the Imperial City because she wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to meet her little sister. The people of Phoenix Mountain and the Ye Family might not know of his tracks, and if he could kill Ye Shan before they found out, that would be the most wonderful thing to do.

Arth led the guards to Papparek's residence, baffled. Before he could enter, he saw a sturdy middle-aged male elf walking out. His face was hidden in the shadows and could not be seen clearly.

"Excuse me, is the village chief at home?" Ace asked politely.

Dahl looked up at the sound and walked out of the shadows, his eyes meeting Ace's. "It's you!"

Athy also opened his mouth wide as he suddenly understood. Since Ye Ling and the others had returned, how could Nina's father, Dare, not return with them?

He immediately lowered his voice. "So it's father. Nina just said she misses you."

"Who is your father? I have yet to recognize you." Dare was infuriated. He had seen this fellow back in Eternal Night City, and at that time he actually didn't tell him anything.

Accius thought to himself, Your daughter is already married to me, do I need you to admit it? However, he still appeared to be very respectful on the surface, causing Dare to take a liking to him a little.

At that moment, a coughing sound came from inside the room, followed by the voice of Paparic. "Darl, is it Ace?"

Accius quickly went around Dare and into the room. "Yes, grandfather. Lian Na misses you. She asked me to bring you to the Royal City and have a look."

Not long after, with Ace's support, Papparek walked out.

"Dare, you father and daughter have not met for a long time. You should go to the Royal City to see Nina." Paparic nodded.

Athy glanced at Darl. "That's right. Nina was overjoyed to hear that you were safe and sound. If you weren't pregnant, she would have come back with me this time."

"You stinking brat! What did you say? " Darl's eyes widened. He hadn't even nodded when his little Nina was taken away by this fellow. Now, even her baby was about to be born. This made him feel even more uncomfortable, to the point where he disliked Ace even more.

The guards around Ace naturally did not dare to make a move, so Ace could only hide behind Parrick. "Shut the door and let's talk about what you have to say. Arth is the king of the Kingdom of the Elves. You can't embarrass him in front of his subordinates."

After hearing this, Darl suppressed his anger and looked behind him. He gritted his teeth and whispered, "Remember this. When I see Nina, I want to see what she'll say. If you treat her badly, then see how I'll deal with you."

Only then did Ace step out from behind him. "Father, I see that you have a lot of misunderstandings towards me. It's alright, I will tell you slowly on the way to the Royal City."

"Humph!" After snorting heavily, Darl no longer looked at him. Instead, he turned to Paparek and said, "I promised Rio that I would go hunt in the Eternal Song Forest. I will go now."

After a nod from Papparek, Darl turned away without looking at Ace.

"Don't worry, son. Your father felt that he had missed the most important moment of Nina's life. He was just venting his anger at you."

Asi nodded: "I understand. When father sees Nina, I believe that everything will be fine."

"Good boy, it's good that you understand. What was it this time? When will you be leaving? "

After Ace dismissed his subordinates, he helped Papparek into the house. As an illegitimate child, Ace had experienced many unknown things, but he had never experienced the warmth of kinship. Ever since he had married Nina, Paparic had treated him as his own grandson. He also had a wife and grandfather, these two relatives, which gradually warmed his heart.

"I have something to attend to and will be leaving very soon. Please follow me this time."

"Your father is with you, so Grandpa won't be coming with you. When Nina gives birth, you can bring him back to see me."

"If you don't go, Nina will be sad again …"

While Paparic and Ace were chatting, the Shadow and Pearl were recalled by Violet.

"Prepare yourself. In a few days, we will set off for the Elf Kingdom." Zi Ling instructed.

"Miss, are we going to see Nina?" Pearl was very happy. Nina and her age weren't that different, and the man and the elf were very compatible. After not seeing her for a few years, Pearl had missed her.

"I guess so …" Zi Ling softly replied.

"Master, when are we going to cash in?" Shadowfiend always remembered Zi Ling's promise. Since they had already returned to the mainland, he should also remind his master not to forget about this important matter.

Zi Ling cast a sidelong glance at him, "Don't worry, you'll be able to eat your fill very soon."

Hearing that, the Shadow Devil laughed out loud, but he reacted very quickly, "Will there be any big incidents if we go to the Imperial City? Is there going to be a lot of monsters?

Ace said that this was the golden age of the Anze Continent, and all the forces would send people here, so naturally, the demons were no different. If that Demon King Ming came, he could easily take care of a few demons to supplement the Shadow Devil.

Arth only stayed with the elves for one day. Early the next morning, he led the huge group to head to the Royal City with Darl.

Loke wanted to go as well, to see sister Nina. However, Ace did not invite him, and he did not want to shamelessly follow along, so he appeared somewhat depressed.

"Roarke, what are you doing in such a depressed manner? I haven't seen a trace of you in the past few days." Pearl was on her way to the elven village to find Anne, and was displeased to see Locke sitting on a branch of a great tree, swinging his legs.

Locke jumped down from the tree. "Brother Ace and the others have left."

"Just for this?" Pearl laughed.

Loke hurriedly said, "I just want to see sister Nina."

"Don't worry, in a few days, we will also be heading towards the Royal City."

"Really?" Locke's eyes lit up with delight.

"Of course, why would I lie to you?" Pearl laughed and rubbed his soft hair again.

Locke tilted his head to one side. "Big sister Pearl, I've grown up. Don't keep rubbing my head."
