Chapter 738 - Prophecy (1/2)
The 2nd Elder laughed for a bit before sighing. ”Great Elder, you don't know how much Mafa Merlin helped us. He was accused of crimes by the 3rd Elder when he just arrived, and when he found out that our clan's Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation was missing, he took the initiative to help us find it.
”I then learnt that in order to find the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation, Mafa Merlin went through countless dangers and even fought against the Ash Beastman Tribe's Flame Dragon Warlord, and he also nearly lost his life in a natural disaster.
”Later, he brought back the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation, but he wanted to shatter the Life Pattern Crystal for some reason. I was confused and felt that this couldn't be allowed, so I fought Mafa Merlin...
”Fortunately, he is very powerful and managed to shatter the Life Pattern Crystal anyways, making it undergo rebirth, saving our race from that century of disasters.
”Then, Broust rebelled, and Mafa Merlin used the power of the Life Pattern Crystal to save me. When the Evil Dragon Warlord appeared, it was also Mafa Merlin that helped us stall for a while. If not for Mafa Merlin, the small world would have already been breached and the clan would have already been destroyed by the time you came out of your seclusion.
”This is the great benefactor of our Dark Elven Race…”
The 2nd Elder was joyfully smiling, not trying to hide his mistake at all as he resolutely boasted about Lin Yun's feats...
The 2nd Elder just reached the end of his account when the Great Elder suddenly knelt in front of Lin Yun with both hands on the ground, his fingers intersecting to form a rune as he loudly shouted, ”Master! We have been waiting for you!”
The Great Elder's movements scared Lin Yun, startling him into rushing out of the way.
'What's going on? The Great Elder is a genuine Heaven Rank powerhouse! Even if he only just advanced to the Heaven Rank, it's still the Heaven Rank. Doing this kind of action while also shouting master… Is that something he uses so casually?
'Even if I saved the Dark Elves, there was surely no need to go so far, right?'
Lin Yun dodged to the side, unwilling to accept the Great Elder's greeting. A Heaven Rank expert suddenly kneeling in front of you and calling you master... Anyone with brains would know that it couldn't be so simple.
'Moreover, the Dark Elven Race was a stubborn race seething with pride and arrogance. It's impossible for them to have their Heaven Rank powerhouse greet their benefactor as their master…'
Lin Yun moved aside, but the Great Elder kept facing him as he kowtowed. After a while, the 2nd Elder asked, ”Great Elder, what's going on? What's it all about?”
This time, the Great Elder stood up with excitement and suddenly understood that his actions were a bit scary. It would only baffle the others if he didn't explain.
Not only was Lin Yun startled, but even the Dark Elves who had yet to leave were terrified. Just what was the Great Elder doing?
The Dark Elves would do their best to repay their great benefactors, but they wouldn't go so far as to let their Great Elder, who had just reached the Heaven Rank, treat him as his master.
After standing up, the Great Elder's face had insuppressible excitement.
He glanced at the surroundings, somewhat in disbelief, before taking a deep breath and saying, ”Master, I'm unworthy, I didn't explain…”
Lin Yun promptly waved his arm. ”Stop! This title can't be carelessly used, tell me what's going on first!”
The Great Elder pondered for a bit before slowly bringing it up. ”Our Dark Elven Race has a prophecy…”
The 2nd Elder was startled by this. ”Great Elder, you mean that prophecy? One day, a man holding a blazing scepter will come to the God Nation and solve the curse of the Dark Elven Race... That one?”
The Great Elder nodded.
”Yes, that one, but that's not it. Only a portion of the prophecy was spread within the clan. There was actually a line about the man's blazing scepter having boundless runes revolving at its tip.
”But the complete prophecy is only known by every generation's Great Elder. This is related to a huge secret, and the clan couldn't allow the complete prophecy to spread.
”Our ancestor left behind a prophecy that one day, far off in the future, countless years after the Wisdom God's fall, there would be one person coming to the God Nation. That person would guide the lost Dark Elven Race towards glory!
”The most important part was that this person was the master of our Dark Elven Race, and not just of our race. The God Nation's three races, whether it was the Dark Elves, the Ash Beastmen, or the Firerock Dwarves, that person would be the master of the three major races!
