Chapter 485 Public Wrath Was Hard To Dispel!
Outsiders must die!
The three words shocked all the people present. “Bullsh*t! I am a divine beast, and you are a divine tree. How can you decide whether I should die?” Flaming Qilin had always been a rebel. Seeing these three words, he was furious and directly lost his temper.
“How dare you insult the Elf Divine Tree! Kneel!” Di Danqing angrily scolded. “Who do you think you are? Do you think you are qualified to let me kneel? If you dare to come over, I will teach you a good lesson right away.” Flaming Qilin’s words were full of disdain.
“You’ve defended the Elf Divine Tree, and the sin is unforgivable.”
“You angered the Elf Divine Tree. How dare you to speak up here!”
“Kill these outsiders and mollify the wrath of the Elf Divine Tree.”
The elves shouted with righteous indignation. They were staring at Chu Xun as if he were a demon. Su Wei’er and Su Lianyi looked worried.
“Calm down, everyone! This matter is not clear yet. After investigation, I will give you an explanation,” Su Wei’er said. The crowd gradually calmed down. Su Wei’er is the Saintess chosen by the Elf Queen, and her every move represented the Elf Queen.
“Saintess, this matter is already very clear. The Elf Divine Tree punished us. It is obvious that these outsiders have offended it. What else is there to investigate?” Di Danqing’s eyes were fierce, and he argued loudly.
“Di Danqing, how dare you question the Saintess’s decision! Who gave you the courage?” Su Lianyi scolded. Di Danqing’s face was sullen. In front of so many people, he really shouldn’t have questioned the Saintess’s decision. He had blurted it out in the heat of the moment.
Di Yanjing bowed to the divine tree three times, turned to look at all the elves below, and said in sorrow, “The Elf Divine Tree has protected us for thousands of years. It is the first time that it had punished us. I believe there must be a reason.” “First Presbyter, the Elf Divine Tree has made it clear that these outsiders must die. This is what everyone saw with our own eyes. What else can be discussed or investigated? In my opinion, we must kill them right away,” said a strong Immortal Level expert behind Di Yanjing.
“Yes! We survive under the shelter of the Elf Divine Tree. Now it is angry. If it refuses to shelter us in the future, what should we do? Are we go against the will of the Elf Divine Tree for some outsiders?” Another Immortal Level expert asked.
“In my opinion, we should kill these outsiders!” someone shouted.
“Kill them, alleviate the wrath of the Elf Divine Tree.”
“Kill them…”
“Kill…”
All the elves were so excited that they yelled to kill Chu Xun and the others. Su Wei’er’s face turned pale, and Su Lianyi was also anxious, but they did not know what to do. The public wrath was hard to dissipate, and everyone was shouting to kill. Even though they were a Saintess and a presbyter, it was impossible to harbor Chu Xun and the others in public.
“Be quiet, everyone.” First Presbyter Di Yanjing raised his hand and pressed it down. All the elves quieted down instantly.
Di Yanjing narrowed his eyes with satisfaction, enjoying taking control of the current situation. “Everyone, these outsiders were originally our guests, but now the Elf Divine Tree was angered by them. The divine tree Elf Divine Tree is the foundation of the Elf race, so this matter must be treated with caution.”
“First Presbyter is right, I think we should mollify the anger of the Elf Divine Tree first. This is what the people of the Elf race should do,” Di Danqing yelled to support Di Yanjing.
“However, these outsiders were invited by the Saintess, so it is up to Saintess. If Saintess is unwilling to kill these people, then we will have no other choice. But the lives of the ten youngsters were lost in vain. I am afraid that the Elf Divine Tree will not shelter us any longer and will not give ever-young fruits to us.” Di Yanjing’s face was full of sadness, and he squeezed out two drops of tears.
Di Danqing suddenly knelt towards Su Wei’er and screamed, “Saintess, please kill these outsiders and save our people!” “I also beg you to kill the outsiders and protect our people.” Another Immortal Level expert knelt and shouted.
“Saintess, you were chosen by the Elf Queen. I still remember her teachings. In any case, we must keep the Elf race prosperous.” One more Immortal Level expert got on his knees.
“Please punish the outsiders and protect the Elf race.”
“Kill the outsiders! Mollify the wrath of the Elf Divine Tree.”
“Kill…”
The people of the Elf race all knelt under the lead of the presbyters, shouting, begging to kill Chu Xun and the others. Su Wei’er’s face was extremely pale, and she didn’t know how to deal with it. She regretted it in her heart. She shouldn’t have invited Chu Xun and the others to the Consecration Ceremony.
“How dare you! Are you trying to force the Saintess to kill them?” Su Lianyi’s face was stern.
Di Danqing suddenly stood up. Maybe he had been waiting for these words. He turned his head and looked around at all the elves, shouting in grief and anger, “As a presbyter of Elf race, I can’t persuade our Saintess! I am not deserved to be a presbyter! I feel ashamed! Even if the Saintess is going to kill me today, I have to say that Su Wei’er is not worthy of being our Saintess. She doesn’t care about our people at all!”
Another Immortal Level expert stood up and said, “The Saintess is unwilling to kill these outsiders, and I could do nothing. Saintess, please kill me. I don’t want to see the Elf race collapse after losing the shelter of the Elf Divine Tree.”
“Saintess, please kill me too.” Another Immortal Level expert courted death.
Di Yanjing cried out sadly, “As the First Presbyter of the Elf race, I can’t protect my people. I am ashamed to face the ancestors and sages of the Elf race. Saintess, please kill me.” Su Wei’er was faltering. Except for the position of the Saintess, she only had Su Lianyi by her side. She was merely a figurehead with no power. Facing the scene in front, she was really at a loss.
“Saintess, you can’t kill the presbyters.”
“Please kill outsiders.”
“Saintess has no virtues and is not worthy of being the Saintess for the Elf race. The First Presbyter should take charge of Elf race temporarily.”
People kept shouting. Flaming Qilin’s eyes were full of fire, and he was extremely furious. If Chu Xun hadn’t stopped him, he would have rushed forward and fought with them desperately.
“Enough!” Flaming Qilin roared, the flames all over his body soared, causing the surrounding air to be distorted. He glared at Di Yanjing and said, “You damned old bastards! Aren’t you embarrassed to bully a woman together? Do you want to make her a mere figurehead? Shame on you! Wanna kill us? Do you have the ability? Come over and fight with me.”
“Shut up! How dare you to shout at us?” Di Danqing pointed at Flaming Qilin and yelled to all the elves, “Did you see? Facing the Elf Divine Tree, they are still so domineering. No wonder the tree was angered.”
“Saintess, you have also seen how arrogant they are. Are you still protecting them?” A presbyter asked.
Su Wei’er was out of her wits. Facing the joint persecution from so many presbyters, she was helpless. At this moment, a man’s voice sounded in her mind, “Saintess, meet their requirements and leave the rest to me.”
