Chapter 159: Extraneous Branches
"Father—"
"Dragon Lord—"
The dragon lord turned into a middle-aged man on the ground, waved his hand, stopped everyone's salute, and turned to look at Lin Qian: "How is Xiaoyou lately?"
"Everything is fine. Lin Qian couldn't help but feel a little more apprehensive when he saw the dragon lord this time, but he almost arched the cabbage he had raised for 10,000 years.
Another golden dragon fell, it was the Adexs who went to "inform", he stood behind the dragon master as soon as he landed, but his eyes were staring at Lin Qian with hatred.
Ysera stepped forward to explain the situation: "Father, Son and Lin—"
"Needless to say," the dragon lord smiled and waved his hand, "I know, you girl has found a good spouse, and I am here to congratulate you." ”
As soon as these words came out, all the young dragons of the dragon clan were stunned, especially Yadeshi, who thought that the patriarch was here to stand up for him, and he didn't want to know how the situation could become so bad.
"Then why did my father stop me from using the dragon mysteries?"
"Child," the Dragon Lord whispered as he took a step closer, "you have to believe in your own vision, he is not an ordinary person, but he has not grown to that point yet. Wait a few more years, and you will understand, and when the time comes, I will not only not stop you, but will support you. ”
Ysera was skeptical, he always felt that things were not simple, but he did not know what the problem was.
"Lin Qian, come here. The dragon lord shouted with some solemnity.
"What do you have to tell your father-in-law?" Lin Qian's mind spun extremely fast, and as soon as the dragon lord agreed to their matter, the title here was changed.
"Isera is now officially handed over to you. The dragon lord held one of the two hands and squeezed them tightly together.
Lin Qian grinned and secretly cried out that his hands hurt, and at the same time, there was indescribable excitement in his heart, it was really painful and happy.
"But—" the old dragon changed his words, "I don't have to worry if you at least have the ability to protect my daughter." ”
"What...... What do you mean?" Lin Qian's face changed slightly, this matter was really not so simple.
The old dragon patted Lin Qian's hand to signal him not to be nervous, and then shouted loudly: "According to the rules of the dragon clan, other clansmen have the right to challenge Lin Qian. At present, there should be no internal strife among the great enemy, so when this beast rampage is over, anyone in the clan who is dissatisfied can challenge him, and for the sake of the princess of his clan, he can't refuse, can you agree?"
Lin Qian was shocked when he heard this, this is the rhythm of killing him, not to mention that he has to fight a giant dragon alone, even those magicians around him can't beat any of them themselves, and when the time comes, won't his dragon be snatched away by others?
"Father, I don't agree. Ysera was the first to stand up against it.
"What about you?" the dragon lord turned to Adex and the group of dragon youths.
"Subordinates agree!" Adexel knew this was the only chance and finally accepted the reality.
"My subordinates agree!" said Derrick and Barrett and other young people.
"Okay, that's it. The dragon lord ignored Ysera's objections, and as soon as Chrysostom opened, the matter was decided.
Lin Qian knew that persuasion was useless, thinking that his woman was of course his own, even if he couldn't beat it then, he would never give it to others if he relied on the account, not to mention that Long'er would not agree, their group of dragons was happy in vain.
The dragon lord seemed to see through Lin Qian's thoughts, and said in a low voice: "Don't make a bad idea, you kid, this matter is related to Ysera's reputation, if you lose your trust, she will have no place in the dragon clan in the future." I think you'd better practice your magic hard, you have a good teacher, and you have three of the strongest magic books in the world, and in a few months, I'm afraid they really won't be your opponents. ”
The dragon lord didn't allow him to think too much, and said to Isera: "Okay, girl, you can take Lin Qian back, I know how inconvenient it is for you to give orders, so leave it to me to command, and send someone to inform me if there is something." ”
"Yes. Ysera was nervous, pulling Lin Qian to retreat, she suddenly understood the dragon lord's hard work, but can this matter be done?
On the way back, Lin Qian, who had a lot of questions, naturally wanted to ask clearly, and Ysera also knew that he couldn't hide it anymore at this time.
"Lin Lang, our dragon clan will never allow remarriage and remarriage, after my mother passed away, my father has not married, so ......"
"So you decided to activate your dragons' so-called secret arts?"
"Yes. ”
Lin Qian nodded clearly, and said, "If my guess is correct, this secret technique is to give me half of the life force, right?"
"You...... How do you know?" said Ysera.
"You're smart, but I'm not stupid, and it's not hard to guess. ”
"What about you...... What do you think?" asked Ysera, a little uneasy.
"Needless to say, it's naturally a good thing that I've earned so many years in vain. Lin Qian looked at her with a smile.
"Really?" said Isera, looking not very happy.
"Of course, this is a great thing for me, but ......" Lin Qian sighed, took Ysera's hand, and said seriously, "For you, it is to sacrifice half of your life, which I can't reluctant." ”
"Really?" said Isera, incredulous.
Lin Qian was looked at by her like this, and laughed: "You still know me, I really want that extra life, but not now, at least three years later." If I were still alive, then I would accept it unceremoniously, after all, I am reluctant to let you live alone in this world. ”
Actually, that's what my father meant. Ysera thought back to the Dragon Lord's words, but she always felt that something was wrong.
Back in Mercenary Town, Lin Qian had a sullen expression, and Elena and Sophia asked the reason clearly, and they all came to persuade him to hurry up and practice magic, maybe he could defeat the dragon.
"Let's talk about this matter when Xiao Yi is rescued, by the way, is there any result in the search?"
"No, they should be out of the wilderness now, and if they look for it, they probably won't find it. Sophia said with some disappointment.
"How's Meryl's trial?"
She ...... Let the princess say it. Sophia said with some amusement.
"What's wrong?" Lin Qian was a little confused.
Elena shook her head a little angrily, "I almost cut off her ear, and I didn't ask anything useful." ”
"Forget it, it seems that she was indeed betrayed by her subordinates, it's still useful to keep her, you didn't hurt her much, right?"
"No, I drew a magic circle with a pen under her armpit to make her laugh all the time. He drew a magic circle on her face, so that she couldn't scratch it with her hands all the time. By the way, she also has long ears, but her ears will shake on their own, which dissolves the itching sensation, so I really want to cut off her ears. Elena talked about her great achievements, living out of a little devil.
Lin Qian shook his head helplessly, none of the enemies caught by Elena had a good end, and it was already a great luck not to turn her into a puppet.
"You've seen that elven princess too?"
"See," said Elena a with some displeasure, "it's disgusting to have to pretend to be so mature even though you're about the same age and height as me!"
Lin Qian knew that Elena would be jealous when she saw Salandis. After all, no one of her age has surpassed her, and now suddenly an elf has appeared, who is also a princess, but has much more powerful mana, different from the rationality and maturity of ordinary people, maybe there is a face no less than her under that veil. On the whole, it seems that Elena has been suppressed everywhere.
"Brother Lin, do you like a mature girl like her?" asked Elena suddenly.
"Huh?" Lin Qian understood what she meant after a little thought, touched her little head and said with a smile, "How can it be?" I still think that girls should have the characteristics that they should have at her age, and at an age like Elena, a little cuteness is what people like. ”
"Really?" Elena's face was slightly red, and she avoided Lin Qian's head touching and killing with some embarrassment, and suddenly she thought of something again, and said, "By the way, Brother Lin, although I didn't hear the news of Sister Xiaoyi, I learned about the current situation of the elf clan from that woman's mouth." ”
"Oh? ”
It turns out that this elf clan is not united, and it is mainly divided into two factions internally, and water and fire are incompatible. One faction is led by the Elven Queen, who is Sarandis's mother, and is now the orthodox Elven race. The other faction, under the banner of avenging the father of the dead elven king, Sarandis, was ruled by several elven elders and split into a part.
The reason why the two factions are so incompatible is that the current elf queen is a husband-killer and forcibly controls the government, so she is unpopular with the people. And the elders' faction is loyal to the late elven king, and is about to kill the queen and return to the throne, in fact, it is not known what they themselves think.
"Growing up in this kind of family, it's no wonder that the elf princess has developed such an indifferent character. Lin Qian couldn't help but sigh.
"yes, she's pathetic. Elena had no objection on this point, although she disliked Sarandis very much.
Elena went on to tell the truth, although Meryl was working as a guard in the outer forests of the elves, but this time the operation was not at the behest of the queen, but Salandis found her alone and asked her to form a team, the purpose of which was to kill Lin Qian and avoid the interference of foreign enemies. According to her, the queen did not accept the princess's proposal, and the matter was carried out in secret, so only an elite squad of these dozen elves was formed, and the assassination plan was even more difficult, and eventually went bankrupt.
Lin Qian was a little stunned when he heard this: "It seems that the strength of the elf clan is not terrifyingly strong, Meryl's position is equivalent to the commander of the garrison, no wonder there is such strength, but how can the elf princess have the strength of far beyond the maturity stage, is there any other magic book?"
"It's a strange way to have this kind of strength, and it's a strange magic. Brother Lin, do you feel that the elf princess is very much like a person?" Elena asked suddenly.
"Who?" Lin Qian's heart moved, and an answer was about to come out.
"The Great Elder of the South Seas—Potlem. ”
