Chapter 156: Waves Rise Again

This was a wheel-shaped weapon with three blades. The three blades were one and a half feet long curved knives, and then they joined together at the tail, forming a gear-like structure. These three blades were snow-white, emitting a soft light, just like the light of the moon. After it appeared, it floated in the void, motionless. Even though he hadn’t seen it before, seeing it like this, Old Xie also recognized it at a glance. This was clearly the second Divine Artifact among the three great Divine Artifacts of the Elves, the Moon Wheel.

Originally, this was the treasure of the Dark Moon Elves Royal Family. Later, because the Dark Moon Elves betrayed the Elves, they were defeated by the Sun Elves united with other races, and this Divine Artifact fell into the hands of the Sun Elves. Unexpectedly, it appeared in Juliet’s hands.

After the Moon Wheel appeared, it immediately began to spin rapidly under Juliet’s command, just like a windmill. Then Juliet pointed her jade hand at Old Xie’s nose, and the Moon Wheel, like a mad dog receiving an order, flew directly towards Old Xie’s nose, its speed as fast as lightning. This was a Divine Artifact after all? Old Xie didn’t know how powerful it was, so naturally he didn’t dare to take it hard. Scared, he quickly flashed to the side, dodging this attack. Even with Old Xie’s agility, he barely dodged it. If a real Mage were here, they would definitely have been chopped to death.

After Old Xie dodged, the Moon Wheel flew over a dining table behind Old Xie. That table was a solid big wooden table, with metal barbecue racks on it. The Moon Wheel didn’t touch them, just flew over them. But even so, after the Moon Wheel passed, those metal racks immediately fell apart with a clatter, smashing onto the table with a noise. Then, the table actually collapsed onto the ground with a crash under the vibration of the metal racks. It turned out that the metal racks and the table surface had been cut in half by the invisible energy emitted by the Moon Wheel, and it was done silently. One had to know, the metal strips on the metal rack were as thick as a thumb, and the table surface was made of solid giant wood more than an inch thick, yet it was cut so easily. It could be seen how terrible this invisible energy was.

And the next scene made everyone even more terrified. After cutting through the dining table, the Moon Wheel seemed to know it missed the target, and immediately made a beautiful turn in the air, then aimed at Old Xie again and chopped down. Just during this turn, the Moon Wheel’s invisible energy swept over a sculpture protruding from the eaves of the Imperial Palace. It was a Griffin spreading its wings, made entirely of marble, two or three meters high. But under the cutting of the energy, it was directly cut off at the waist, falling to the ground with a boom.

Seeing this, everyone couldn’t help but gasp, thinking, a Divine Artifact is indeed a Divine Artifact, this power is too terrible, right?

Next, seeing the Moon Wheel still crashing around, the people in the courtyard scaredly ran into the surrounding buildings, even His Majesty the Emperor had to enter the room under the escort of his guards. The huge courtyard was instantly empty.

Everyone else could run, except Old Xie. Because he had a deadly thing following him behind. Fortunately, Old Xie’s skills were indeed amazing. He dodged left and right in the big courtyard. Although he was in a sorry state, he could still hold on for a while. But the things in the courtyard were unlucky. Tables, chairs, flowers, trees, sculptures, almost all were chopped into pieces under the care of the Moon Wheel. The originally good banquet venue was made into a mess by Old Xie and Juliet, simply like a typhoon passing through.

After dodging a few times, Old Xie felt that this was not a solution, because this Moon Wheel was particularly annoying, not only following him closely, but also seemed to be getting faster and faster. If this continued, sooner or later it would catch up with him. Obviously, if he didn’t want to die, he had better fight back quickly.

Actually, Old Xie could now use the Blink Dagger to instantly rush behind Juliet, and then slap her unconscious. But Old Xie didn’t plan to do this, because what he did this time was really unkind. In front of so many people, he touched a girl’s chest. Old Xie himself felt it was too much, so ashamed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. How could he have the face to hit her again?

So Old Xie finally decided to take a risk, using his Mental Power to forcibly control the Moon Wheel. Normally speaking, doing this was simply courting death. Because Divine Artifacts have self-recognition functions, if the Mental Power of someone other than the master invaded, it would definitely be counterattacked by the Divine Artifact. Even Legendary Experts didn’t have the ability to forcibly control someone else’s Divine Artifact with Mental Power.

But this time was different, because Old Xie knew that he also had the bloodline of the Elven Royal Family. According to reason, he was also considered half a master of the Moon Wheel, just like the reason he could use the Sun God Bow. Even if he couldn’t fully control the Moon Wheel, the Moon Wheel certainly wouldn’t counterattack. Moreover, if Old Xie’s bloodline was the Star Elves Royal Family, even if Juliet was a Legendary Expert, Old Xie could take the Moon Wheel over. Because Juliet was a Sun Elf after all, not the original owner of the Moon Wheel.

Sure enough, after Old Xie’s Mental Power remotely pierced into the Moon Wheel, he didn’t receive any obstruction or counterattack, and soon established contact with the Moon Wheel. However, it was only this. Old Xie’s Mental Power only delayed the speed of the Moon Wheel. After Juliet strengthened her control, the Moon Wheel still fiercely chopped towards Old Xie. Obviously, from this, it could be seen that Old Xie was not the Moon Elf Royal bloodline.

However, although Old Xie’s attempt failed, Juliet very strangely put away the Moon Wheel, looking at Old Xie with a complex expression. Then she threw herself into the arms of Constantine who had been persuading her, and cried: “Younger Sister, take me away from here, I don’t want to see him again!”

“Okay, okay!” Constantine heard this and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She was also very nervous just now, constantly persuading Juliet, but Juliet always refused, insisting on killing Old Xie. Now seeing Juliet express her stance like this, Constantine naturally agreed. She gave Old Xie a wink, signaling him to leave quickly, while supporting Juliet to walk out.

Old Xie was also very strange about what was going on at first, but after thinking a little, he quickly understood the key. Obviously, when Juliet came, she must have learned from her brother about Old Xie’s Elven Royal Family status, and confirmed that he was not a Sun Elf. Through the fact that Old Xie couldn’t control the Moon Wheel just now, she deduced that Old Xie was a Star Elves Royal Family. So she stopped her hand.

Because the Star Elves were almost exterminated by the Sun Elves back then, this was the most painful page in the history of the Elves. Therefore, the Sun Elves were full of guilt towards the Star Elves, which continued to this day. Since the holy land of the Star Elves, Star Island, sank, the Star Elves’ Divine Artifact completely disappeared, and the Royal bloodline of the Star Elves didn’t know where it went. It was only known that there were two branches of Star Elves descendants on the continent currently, the Siren on the southern islands, and the Naga in the Beast Race territory.

Because these two branches of Star Elves descendants were full of hostility towards the Sun Elves, they completely refused to interact with them, so the Royal bloodline of the Star Elves couldn’t be identified with the Divine Artifact. So for these years, the Star Elves had no Royal Family.

And now, after tens of thousands of years, the Royal bloodline of the Star Elves reappeared on the continent. As the Royal Princess of the Sun Elves, Juliet would be too late to cherish him, how could she dare to hurt him? So after figuring this out, she could only admit her bad luck and let Old Xie go. Otherwise, just based on Old Xie’s behavior today, even if he was a King, Juliet would definitely kill him first.

After Juliet and Constantine left, Old Xie also breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, thinking, this dead girl is strong enough, right?

Just then, His Majesty the Emperor ran over angrily, and directly cursed at Old Xie: “Little Stephen, you are fierce enough, aren’t you? Last time you beat the Elf Prince into a sorry state, this time you molested the Elf Princess in public, your guts are too big, right? Don’t you know how serious a diplomatic dispute this will cause? You are simply a bastard. I now announce, your title and territory, are all gone!”

Old Xie was already angry, hearing the Emperor’s words, he immediately flew into a rage, and immediately sneered: “Gone is gone, do I give a damn?” After saying that, he turned around and left.

When the Emperor heard this, he was so angry that he almost died. He had never seen such an arrogant subject in his life. Especially in front of so many people, how could he step down? In his rage and humiliation, he immediately shouted: “Rebellion, rebellion! Guards! Arrest this bastard for me! Drag him down and whip him!”

With the Emperor’s order, several guards swarmed up to arrest Old Xie. How could Old Xie accept this? He was also angry, thinking, I gave you face but you don’t want it, you want to die, don’t you?

Without any nonsense, Old Xie directly reached out and released a powerful Flash Spell, instantly blinding the eyes of the surrounding people, including the guards who rushed up. Then, Old Xie took out his stick, did a Phoenix Three Nods, directly knocked out the guards in front of him, and then rushed towards the Emperor, obviously wanting to beat him up to vent his anger.

Of course, the Emperor was definitely not that easy to beat. Old Xie had just taken two steps when he had to stop, because two Sword Saints suddenly appeared in front of the Emperor. They were the Perfect Knight and the Heavy Armor Sword Saint who came to attend the banquet. With them there, Old Xie naturally knew he couldn’t beat the Emperor, and rushing up would definitely be a disadvantage, so he could only stop helplessly!
