What stunned Estelle even more was that in the photo, there was a short and dilapidated house. The house was built with chiseled rocks and mud, and there was a piece of land surrounded by a fence in front of the house. In the field, potato vines grew together in a mess.
In front of the house, there stood a reef statue.
This place…
“This is…” Estelle turned to look at Donor and asked in disbelief, “This is… my home? ” This was his home in Soran Village. The statue was the guardian bell personally made by Estelle.
Donor nodded.
Estelle was a little dazed. After a moment, he asked, “When did you take it?”
Donor said mysteriously, “It’s a secret.”
Estelle didn’t expect to see his former residence again.
Even though he had a palace and an entire world now, he still missed the dilapidated house at the end of the village. Estelle smiled at Donor gratefully and said sincerely, “Your Highness, this is the best gift I’ve ever received.”
Donor nodded and said, “This is also the most precious collection among my many treasures.”
Donor said so meaningfully.
Estelle narrowed his eyes at Donor with a meaningful gaze.
Donor stared at the picture calmly, then he suddenly smiled mysteriously and asked, “Estelle, do you want to bring me back to your hometown to take a look?”
Estelle stared at the picture, but said, “My hometown has long disappeared.” Soran Village had long disappeared along with the Light Sea during the Apocalypse War.
Donor smiled even more mysteriously. Then, he walked to Estelle’s side and tilted his head to his ear as he whispered, “Estelle, do you dare to take me back to the Soran Village and your home? If you dare to, I can take you there.” Estelle’s pupils dilated.
He stared at Donor and couldn’t help but curl his fingers into fists. “Your Highness, do you know what you’re saying? Your Highness, please think twice before you say such a thing.”
As Donor looked into Estelle’s deep black eyes that suppressed his intense emotions, he didn’t retreat or explain. He only said indifferently, “They all say that I’m the most beautiful elf among the Light Elves. In front of me, his wife is nothing in comparison.”
Donor raised his chin and ordered Estelle arrogantly, “Estelle, bring me back to the Soran Village to take a look.”
Estelle closed his eyes and sighed as he said, “Yes, Your Highness.”
Seeing that Estelle had agreed, Donor pushed Estelle away and turned around to inject his spiritual power into the picture hanging on the wall behind him. In the next second, the picture turned into a door that led to a secret s.p.a.ce. After Donor and Estelle went inside, thet were teleported to an independent s.p.a.ce.
Donor told Estelle, “Before the apocalypse battle, I asked Senior Duan Fen to move the Soran Village to this interspatial ring in advance. The interspatial ring can’t carry living bodies, so what we will see is just a lifeless version of Soran Village.”
Even so, Estelle was satisfied. “That’s enough.”
The two of them appeared at the entrance of the old village chief’s house.
Looking at the quiet and desolate village in front of him, Donor smiled and said to Estelle, “This is your hometown, so you have to introduce it to me.”
“Sure.”
Estelle and Donor walked side by side on the stone path. Every time they pa.s.sed by a house, Estelle would stop and introduce it. “This is the old village chief’s home, that’s Uncle Gel s home, and that’s…” Along the way, Estelle told Donor, “Those with high-ranking positions live at the end of the village. ‘
Donor asked, “Where’s your house?”
Estelle was silent for a moment before saying, “At the end of the village.” Donor laughed out loud.
Estelle wasn’t angry. He led Donor through the entire village before reaching the end.
When they really arrived at Estelle’s house, Donor put away his smile. Looking at the reef statue in front of the house, Donor took the initiative to say to Estelle, “I’ve secretly investigated your deeds in the Soran Village. That’s probably your mom, right?”
Estelle looked at Donor before saying, “Yes, it’s my mom.”
Estelle walked to the statue.
When he was seven years old, Estelle felt that his mother was very, very tall. Now, he had to look down at his mother’s face.
Estelle stared at his mother’s body that had fused with the reef. Even though he had become powerful and could no longer remember how sad he was when he made his mother into a guardian bell, his heart still ached and he felt so guilty that he wanted to cry.
He stroked his mother’s face as he muttered, “I didn’t have a choice… I was only seven years old at that time. I couldn’t protect my siblings. I didn’t want them to be eaten by demon beasts, so I could only make her into a guardian bell. I don’t know if she would blame me, but I think that even if she wanted to blame someone, she would only blame me. At least my siblings were innocent.” Donor felt terrible when he heard this.
He didn’t comfort Estelle. Instead, he said to him, “You did the right thing, Estelle. As a mother, I think she also hoped that her children would grow up safely. You were only a child back then. Other than that, you couldn’t think of another solution.”
“But it doesn’t matter. Now that you’re a Divine Master, I believe that under your leadership, your people won’t suffer anymore.”
Estelle nodded vigorously. “Yes, I won’t let a new guardian bell appear in the
Night World. In the future, I will be their guardian bell.” He was the king of the Night Elves, so he would be the guardian bell of the Night World and defeat all the monsters for them.
“In that case, let’s send her away,” Donor said.
Estelle had the same intention.
He hugged his mother’s body one last time and whispered into her ear, “Mom, I brought Donor to see you. You’ve worked hard all these years.” With that, he personally shattered the guardian bell.
In the next second, the person turned into ashes and disappeared in front of Estelle.
Estelle stared at the void and didn’t move for a long time.
“Let’s go.” Donor and Estelle looked at his homeland nostalgically one last time before walking out of the village without looking back. Everything they pa.s.sed turned into nothingness.
The disappearance of Soran Village meant that Estelle had completely let go of his obsession.
He sent off the old village chief and his mother, and he found Donor, who was even better-looking than Carson’s wife.
Divine Dao Year 64.
After Feng Yuncheng returned, his group of good friends abandoned their cultivation and work and went to the princess’ residence on Divine Moon Empire to congratulate the couple on their reunion.
Estelle and Donor went too.
That night, everyone drank and sing to celebrate.
Yu Huang chuckled as she watched them play. She actually felt a little melancholic.
Everything was fine now, but there was still a hidden corner in her heart that had not been filled. Sheng Xiao sensed Yu Huang’s disappointment, so he held Yu Huang’s finger and turned to ask her, “What are you thinking about?”
Yu Huang said, “I’m thinking about my adoptive parents.”
Of course, Sheng Xiao knew that the adoptive parents she was talking about were not Yu Rufeng and Li Pingping, but the couple from Earth’s Doomsday Era. “After you completely repair the ecosystem on Earth, you can build a time and s.p.a.ce teleportation door and teleport the survivors from the Doomsday Era to Earth’s future era.’
“Yes.” Yu Huang’s mood improved again.
She lowered her eyes and looked at the blue planet in her palm..
