Chapter 627: A Punch of Compromise
Chapter 627: A Punch of Compromise
When Fei Sili in the house heard Chen Cheng's explanation outside, her face turned red because she also thought of the ambiguity in her words just now.
After Chen Cheng entered the tree house, Herlous, who had been smiling outside, glanced at Samlet and snorted coldly.
"Your Excellency, the Palace Master is indeed a man who has lived for hundreds of years. He can think so much about a casual word from a junior."
Samlett's old face also blushed with embarrassment. This was because Chen Cheng had been staying with Fesili, a beautiful and lively elf with a great figure, these days.
Moreover, if Chen Cheng was not displaced at this time, he should have been running for election by now, so it is inevitable that Samlett would have the wrong idea.
And the more important point is the agreement between the empire and the elves. Samlet is really afraid that Chen Cheng will be corrupted by these beautiful elves, lose his enterprising spirit, and want to stay in the elves and contribute to their future.
It can be said that Samlet has been more worried than ever these days. He is worried about this and that, and he is afraid that Chen Cheng's will is not firm and he will be defeated by the elves' sugar-coated bullets.
And how could Herlous not know what Samlet was thinking? This made her extremely annoyed.
Because according to Samlett's meaning, it seemed as if they were saying that the elves used seductive means to seduce Chen Cheng and make him fall into depravity.
However, from beginning to end, the elves never told Chen Cheng about the agreement between them and the empire. These ideas of tempting corruption were completely Samlet's groundless speculation.
"Master Palace Master, please use your wisdom. We do not want to argue with you about this. If the Empire does not want to fulfill its promise, that is the Empire's own choice.
We will absolutely not interfere with Your Majesty without authorization, but we hope that the Palace Master can still report the truth to Your Majesty, otherwise the Palace Master's actions will be suspected of deceiving Your Majesty."
Herlous had made it very clear that Chen Cheng should at least be informed of the agreement at the beginning. No matter what the subsequent choice was, the elves were willing to accept it.
However, different decisions will naturally lead to different results. Now that Chen Cheng wants to restore the country, he must recruit his subordinates.
If he chooses to give up fulfilling the agreement, the elves will not make things difficult for him, but his fate with the elves will be over from then on.
At the same time, it is not just the elves who have made agreements with the empire, but also races such as the dragon clan. These were the agreements that Thornflower I made with them when the empire was established.
Otherwise, if these powerful races had come out to cause trouble back then, no matter how wise and powerful Thornflower I was, he would never have been able to defeat the orcs and establish an empire in such a short time.
Samlet didn't respond to Herlous's words. From his perspective, the more sinister idea was to refuse to fulfill the agreement, so that he could use it to establish alliances with other tribes.
Although all ethnic groups still respect the emperor of the empire on the surface, it is absolutely impossible for them to support Chen Cheng, the powerless emperor, as they did in the past.
What is more likely is that Chen Cheng fulfilled the agreement with their ethnic group, and then they parted ways amicably with the empire.
After all, His Majesty made an agreement with them back then, and Samlett didn't believe that it would be smooth sailing and peaceful. Fighting and bloodshed were inevitable.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for each ethnic group to hand over their shortcomings to His Majesty, and then agree to let His Majesty's descendants make up for them.
After washing up, Chen Cheng and the other person walked out of the tree house. At this time, Feisili changed into the clothes of an elven warrior, which was somewhat similar to the women's fitness straps that Chen Cheng wore in his previous life.
The only difference is that it has more decorations on it and its function is more like a combat vest.
At this time, Feisili was not carrying the bow and arrow, one of the characteristics of elves, but was carrying her Luanniao No. 1 magic rifle on a belt.
Herlous bowed to Chen Cheng, then waved his hand and quickly took Chen Cheng and the other two to the coming-of-age ceremony area outside the Moonlight Forest.
This time, Herlous didn't fly them at a speed close to the speed of light as before. Although they still felt a little uncomfortable after stopping, it was much better than before.
At the same time, Chen Cheng also realized that his previous guess was correct. Herlous took him to the temple at such a fast speed as revenge.
The only reason why he had no grudges or hatred with the elves in the past or recently was probably because of Samlet.
This was evident from the fact that Herlous only brought the two of them and not Samlet.
When Samlet saw Herlous leaving with the two of them, he knew that he had really angered the elven elder.
Then he sighed heavily. He finally figured it out. Even if he had concealed it, the various tribes had been waiting for so many years. As long as Chen Cheng showed up, they would tell him the truth.
At that time, he would be in a difficult situation, and because of his concealment, Chen Cheng would feel helpless and fall into other people's trap if he is not careful.
Then Samlet looked at the World Tree in the distance and snorted:
"You owe this to His Majesty."
As he said that, he punched open the space barrier of the Moonlight Forest.
You have to know that this is the real world. The spatial barrier is inherently stronger than that of the City of Sin. In addition, this place is still under the coverage of the power of the Tree God. Ordinary demigods cannot destroy the space here at all.
This punch of his showed his strength after his injuries had healed slightly, and was also a little warning to the elves.
Because he is not a fool, he knows the content of the agreement between the Empire and the Elves.
And if Chen Cheng fulfills the agreement, then it will not be the empire that owes the elves, but they who owe the empire.
This punch also told them not to jump too much. Outside of the agreement, they were still subjects of the empire, and he was still the master of the demigod temple of the empire.
Of course, this was both a warning and his compromise. This punch was telling the elves that he would no longer hide or obstruct them.
Otherwise, he could just let them pressure him with words as he did before, and he would remain silent and wait for his injuries to fully recover.
Samlett stepped into the gap in space and appeared in one step at the outskirts of the Moonlight Forest where the coming-of-age ceremony was held.
At this time, all the elven elders and priests in the temple were silent. Samlett's punch just now was the highest warning to them.
"The power of his punch is almost reaching the level of a true god.
We also need to be more restrained. After all, the empire still exists, and he is still the master of the Demigod Temple."
It is true that the elves are innocent and kind, but that does not mean they are all naive. For the development of the tribe, they will naturally use some means.
For example, they took advantage of Samlett's injury and used the agreement to force Samlett.
If the empire still had its former glory, they would never dare to force Samlett in this way. At most, they would write a letter to remind the empire near the agreed time.
Of course, if the glory of the empire still existed, Samlet would not have tried so hard to stop it. After all, there was nothing wrong with having an elf wife for the emperor.
On the contrary, it can bring the two ethnic groups closer together.
