In the midst of the raging flames, it became extremely difficult to even breathe.

Scenes from the past came to mind, and the Ancestral Tiger's hatred of this world seemed to have increased by another point.

The magic waterfall still cascaded down, turning into a torrent of water in the forest, dissolving the flames on the trees one by one.

Ai Xingyun carefully pushed the Ancestral Tiger away from the trees on his body, and saw its wounds and the blood pouring out.

So the prince leaned down and stroked its golden fur, his eyes full of tenderness.

Looking at it like this, it seems that it will soon say goodbye to this world.

As a human being, I have nothing to offer you, except that I want you to rest in heaven... Ai Xingyan said silently in his heart.

Before they knew it, the elven prince Byron had reappeared behind them, almost subconsciously, and the Ancestral Tiger raised his head with the last of his strength.

"There's no way..."After examining the injury, Byron said helplessly, "Its heart has been shattered, and even magic can't be restored." ”

At this moment, Ai Xingyan suddenly heard a call of "huh", and saw the eyes of the Ancestor Tiger asking for help.

"Don't worry, we'll be praying for you," Ai Xingyan sighed.

But immediately, a round golden ball came out of the abdomen of the Ancestral Tiger.

Both were taken aback at the same time.

No wonder it looked like it was trying to protect something, it turned out to be a little guy.

It's an Archaeopteryx cub...... Immediately afterward, the two of them recognized the lovely thing in front of them at the same time, only to see that its whole body was covered with soft and clean hair, with a star-shaped black birthmark on its forehead, and its watery eyes were full of uneasiness and curiosity, and most importantly, two lightning-shaped folds grew under its ribs.

"It could be a genius." Byron said suddenly.

Ai Xingyan cast a strange gaze.

Did it have a premonition when it came out of its mother's side at this time?

At the same time, the Ancestral Tiger Mother stretched out her right paw with difficulty and tugged at the corner of Ai Xingyan's clothes.

She let out a low groan and pointed her other finger at her child.

Then, she used all her strength.

In the dense forest, her lonely figure seemed to tell the story of an ancient race, and when its eyes slowly closed, a kind and pure soul rose into the starry sky.

However, the Ancestral Tiger didn't do this, its gaze was just fixed on Ai Xingyan's face, and it didn't want to disperse for a long time.

Ai Xingyan's heart was turbulent.

She was asking me to take her baby away, and no matter what, I couldn't live up to her last wish.

So he nodded at the Ancestral Tiger, and the other party licked the corner of Ai Xingyan's clothes gratefully.

Finally waiting for your appearance, good human...

At the same time that Ai Xingyan picked up the cub on the ground, she finally closed her eyes happily.

In the silent forest, Byron used his magic to construct a crystal graveyard for it, and at the end of that flawless light, the mother of the Archaeopteryx had already slept peacefully, letting go of all the worries of the world.

Ai Xingyan's face was serious, only the cub with a round head and a round brain was still alive.

"Take it with you, and one day, it will be a unique existence." Byron said to Ai Xingyan.

Immediately, the two of them walked towards the outside of the forest at the same time, and at the same time, the Ancestor Tiger cub was also put into the Void Territory by Ai Xingyan.

"Rest assured, there's plenty of water there, and I just need to feed it regularly." Ai Xingyan said confidently.

In the setting sun, they walked side by side to the edge of the forest.

"As fate would have it, we met here, and from now on, the fate of the Kingdom of Illir will be closely linked to the Silver Wing."

Byron reached out his left hand in a friendly manner, clasping it tightly with Axing's hand.

But at this moment, many small beads of sweat appeared on the prince's forehead.

He fell to his knees nervously.

Byron discovered his secret with keen observation.

Behind Ai Xingyan, a looming Netherworld Mark suddenly appeared, and with each additional step, the effectiveness of this mark increased by one point.

If memory serves, this mark should be...

He instantly became worried about Ai Xingyan's fate.

How could something so terrible happen? The Silverwing Prince is not yet twenty years old, and if he continues like this, he will eventually fall into the abyss from which he will never recover.

As a friend, I must help him this time.

"Did you go to a strange place before?" Byron asked.

Ai Xingyan felt the pain and chill in his back grow, but he still told Byron about his encounter with Blade Wolf Knight by the river and what he had experienced in Copperstone Castle.

Byron looked at him in surprise.

"You can't be the underworld, right?"

Ai Xingyan endured everything.

"What is that, how come I've never heard of it?"

"This kind of weird and evil thing is something that even the vast majority of our elven kingdom is afraid of."

"Legend has it that they were all called by the Hagarva, the king of hell, to collect souls for the demon king through covert actions in times of peace."

"No one knows where they came from, only that they are in groups of three, haunting secluded and treacherous places, and where they go, horror and sorrow coexist, and no one can escape after being targeted by them, because they seem to have many strange powers."

"I can be sure that they are definitely not the original owners of Copperstone Castle."

"However, in order to defeat this powerful and shadowy existence, it is necessary to assemble the corresponding forces."

"Originally, I wasn't going to get involved, but now even you have been marked by them!"

"I can't help it, I'll go back to that weird place with you."

Then he gently patted Ai Xingyan's back, and a fresh breath spread instantly, and Ai Xingyan felt that all the discomfort had dissipated.

"It's life magic, it temporarily relieves the pain caused by the mark, and then, it's our turn!"

"Before I do that, let me remind you of my plans."

Byron quietly pressed his lips close to Axing's ear, and after a brief conversation, the two nodded in unison.

The two of them quickened their pace, and soon came to the front of the bronze stone castle.

At this moment, the castle is quiet.

There was even a still fountain in the garden outside the door, but there was no life in the shade of the trees.

The door was also hidden, but after entering it, the two of them felt a chill to the bone.

It's a dark hallway with a marble floor that feels subtle to walk on.

Soon, they came to the real forbidden land.
