Chapitre 38: Dark Elves - 38
Since the dark elves didn't want him to talk, Zhou Fan didn't waste anymore words. After blocking yet another bunch of arrows, he waved his hand and used some wind Qi to form a bubble around the group of dark elves.
They continued to shoot arrows for about a minute before they realized that their arrows were blocked by the greenish wall in front of them.
After a brief moment of confusion, a dark elf fell to the ground. The remaining elves turned around and saw their friend passed out.
THUD!
Turning back around, they saw 3 more dark elves passed out. Within 20 seconds, every dark elf was passed out on the ground.
Only then did Zhou Fan stop siphoning air out of the wind bubble and dispersed it.
By now, the dark elf settlement was silent. It seemed that nearly all of the dark elves had gathered to attack Zhou Fan, or more accurately, Yipeng.
Looking at the passed out dark elves, Zhou Fan used wood Qi to bind them to the ground before he started to walk around the village. Everything seemed similar to the elf cave, however, they were missing trees. The most obvious difference was the lack of a world tree. In fact, they didn't have any sort of centerpiece to their village. Not even a water fountain or a statue.
One similarity to the elf village is that on the north side of the village, there was a big palace. Like the elf palace, it was made with wood. However, this wood was a much darker type.
Since he had previously knocked out the guards, Zhou Fan walked right through the gates of the palace and into the elegant door that led to the throne room. It had to be noted that the entire palace was lit with torches.
When Zhou Fan walked through the final door that led into the throne room, he noticed that the sides were lined with metal armors. He then noticed the presence on the throne.
"Who are you?!" The dark elf king said with great confusion.
However, after a moment, he quickly realized Zhou Fan's identity.
"Human!" He said while frowning.
Like the elves, the dark elves had a hatred for humans. Also, they too had slowly lost this hate over time. However, the dark elf king was naturally informed and seemed to hold some hatred for humans.
"Let's not waste any time", Zhou Fan said while looking towards the throne with his hands behind his back. "Take me to the library."
The dark elf king looked at Zhou Fan with both a little bit of disdain and a little bit of wariness.
"I'm afraid I'll have to refuse. GUARDS!" The king screamed.
However, even after a minute had passed, no guards came. It seemed that every single one had been knocked out by Zhou Fan earlier.
"It seems that they're busy right now." Zhou Fan taunted.
Clearly, the king didn't know about the arrival of an elf. He also didn't see Yipeng since Zhou Fan told him to wait outside the palace.
"Do you want to take me there or do you want me to beat you up then make you take me there?" Zhou Fan asked.
Hearing his words, the king let out a small chuckle. "I don't think you have the ability to make me show you the way."
The king pulled out a sword from the side of his throne and lept towards Zhou Fan with a downward swing. Zhou Fan stepped sideways to dodge with his hands still behind his back. The king's floor hit the sword, but he instantly turned and side slashed at Zhou Fan. Zhou Fan jumped back as if there was little gravity and dodged the sword. When he landed next to one of the armors, he grabbed the sword from it and attacked the king. Since he had decided to use the strength of an average warrior, the king easily parried his downward slash.
Zhou Fan found great fun in fights like these. He could both practice his sword skills and fight someone without instantly defeating them.
After 3 minutes had passed, the king was looking extremely fatigued. He was gasping heavily and was only able to stand up because he was leaning on his sword.
On the other hand, Zhou Fan looked like he was in perfect condition.
Looking at Zhou Fan, the dark elf king sighed. "I admit defeat, but I won't tell you the location of the library. You'll have to kill me."
It was clear that although the king knew he couldn't win, he felt that he shouldn't give up the library's location.
"Hahaha", Zhou Fan laughed.
He naturally knew that the king would be unwilling to disclose the location if he defeated him like that.
He then stopped holding his aura back and released it.
BOOM!!
A great pressure descended upon the room and the elf king instantly fell on his knees. An immense fear found its way into his mind. In his eyes, Zhou Fan no longer looked human. Instead, he looked like a great devil from the depths of hell.
"I-I-I-I'll show y-you." After a bit of stuttering, the dark elf king was able to agree to Zhou Fan's earlier words.
Hearing him, Zhou Fan stopped releasing his aura pressure. He was slightly disappointed actually. He was hoping that the dark elf king would take longer to crack under the pressure. It wasn't because Zhou Fan had expectations, however. Instead, it was because he felt more natural when his aura, or more accurately, cultivation, was being released without restraint. In fact, it actually took up a bit of energy to stop it from being released. Luckily, the amount of energy was negligible.
"Good. In that case, please lead the way." Zhou Fan said.
The dark elf king didn't dare hesitate before he walked to a seemingly random hallway in the castle.
In that hallway, the dark elf king started to pull torches down which surprisingly acted like levers.
With a smug look on his face, he started to brag.
"Incredible isn't it? This is one of th—"
"Already seen it." Zhou Fan interrupted.
Looking disappointed, the dark elf king kept pulling levers until a section of the wall moved like a sliding door, revealing a lightly lit path.
