Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 381

Chapter 381: Chapter 373: Clan Trial

Shen Tang returned to the city walls, presenting the Energy Crystal Core with both hands, spirited and exuberant, "Sky King Your Majesty, I have done it. Will you keep your promise to me?"

"Good, good, good, Night Glow Monarch today has truly made me see him in a new light!"

Sky King clapped his hands, personally poured two cups of wine, and handed one to her, "This cup, I personally toast to you!"

Shen Tang took the cup and drank it all in one go.

Sky King finished the wine in his cup and turned to look down from the city wall.

Below the city tower, thousands upon thousands of Beastmen had already gathered.

Having witnessed today’s thrilling battle, the hearts of all the citizens were stirred with excitement!

Standing on the high platform, Sky King announced loudly, "Everyone! The Monarch of Night Glow Empire personally acted to eliminate the Thundercloud Jellyfish that plagued the citizens! Such grace, we at Yunding Empire cannot go unreciprocated!"

With a grand flourish, she declared with great spirit, "This king decides to immediately dispatch forces to support Night Glow Empire! From today onwards, our two kingdoms shall be allied forever!"

The crowd below burst into cheers, voices of jubilation rising and falling,

"That’s great!"

"Support His Majesty’s decision!"

"Night Glow Monarch is truly remarkable, earning our utmost admiration!"

The entire square was filled with a warm atmosphere, not a single voice of dissent.

Shen Tang stood aside, looking at the grand scene, finally breathing a sigh of relief – this difficult negotiation had finally reached a satisfactory ending!

Sky King turned to Shen Tang, a sly glimmer in her eyes, "That’s settled then. But..." She deliberately drew out her voice, "Lu Xiao must stay behind."

"Your Majesty, didn’t you just agree..." Shen Tang felt a jolt in her heart, her words cut off before she could finish.

"Hahaha!" Sky King suddenly burst into laughter, slapped Shen Tang’s shoulder heavily, "Look how nervous you are! This king’s words always count, and since I said we spoke only of national affairs, not private matters, naturally there is no going back."

She gestured towards Lu Xiao’s direction, teasingly, "Besides, even if I truly wanted to keep this lad forcibly, look at him, that soul-lost expression of his – his heart’s long since flown back to your side, I can keep a person but I can’t keep a heart!"

Lu Xiao coughed lightly, "Mother, if you have something to say, please say it quickly."

"Look at your impatience! Then fine, this king will speak plainly – inside you, Xiao’er, flows the noble bloodline of our Golden Feathered Roc Clan. Alas, since you weren’t raised with me since childhood, it’s hard for your bloodline to awaken, so I want you to stay in the clan for a time and send you to the Trial Ground within the clan to help awaken your bloodline!" 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Sky King earnestly guided, "Child, your talent is not limited to this. Our Golden Feathered Roc Clan is of extraordinary origin, possessing unmatched powerful strength."

"Once you can awaken the Roc bloodline, you will surely achieve greater accomplishments, assisting this beloved Female Master of yours to soar higher and further."

Lu Xiao’s heart trembled slightly, casting a complex gaze on Shen Tang, lips slightly pursed, "Female Master, I..."

Shen Tang held his hand, laughing gently, "Do what you wish to do, follow your own heart, I will always support you!"

Lu Xiao took her into his arms tightly, a profound longing that could not be dispelled in his eyes.

Moments later, Lu Xiao spoke with resolve, "Mother, I’m willing to stay in the clan to undergo the trial."

Sky King laughed, "Good, good, good, now this king’s wish is fulfilled! Otherwise, my heart always worries about you, this child."

Nonetheless, this separation means not knowing how long before they meet again.

Lu Xiao is destined to be separated from Shen Tang for a time.

He looked at the bright eyes of the female in his arms, looked at her rosy lips, unable to suppress his yearning, lowered his head to kiss those red lips.

"Female Master, take care."

"Ah Xiao, you too."

Seeing the couple’s affections so harmonious, Sky King showed an aunt’s smile, "Oh my, young people being lovey-dovey, reminds this king of those romantic days gone by~"
