Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

It took a while for Queen Rhine to compose herself and appear natural.

She couldn't help but wonder how Jun Wuxie managed to disguise himself as a powerful being of darkness, and even possess such pure dark energy.

"I cultivate a profound art that grants me incredible shapeshifting abilities. Coupled with my understanding of the power of darkness, I can transform into the likeness of a dark being."

"I see."

Queen Rhine found him even more mysterious now. He actually possessed such a profound art that even dark beings couldn't distinguish him from their own.

Throughout history, no one had ever completely disguised themselves as a dark being without being detected.

But Jun Shen had done it.

The dark beings who had besieged her at the time had all regarded him as a powerful figure from the dark world.

"Today, I thank Jun Shen for saving me. Otherwise, Rhine would have lost her life long ago, and the Elven Divine Bow would have fallen into the hands of darkness, with unimaginable consequences.

Jun Shen has helped our Elven race out of its predicament, which is already a great kindness, but the Elven race has not yet repaid you.

Today, Jun Shen has saved Rhine from danger again, which is an immense favor. Rhine doesn't know how to repay Jun Shen…"

"If you don't know how to repay me, Queen Rhine could offer herself in marriage."

"Ah?"

Queen Rhine was immediately stunned. Her beautiful face flushed red, she met his gaze, then quickly looked away, lowered her head slightly, and whispered, "If Jun Shen doesn't mind me, Rhine would be happy…"

"Cough, I was just joking with the Queen, don't take it seriously."

Jun Wuxie had only intended to tease her, but he didn't expect her to take it seriously and agree immediately, scaring him into making excuses.

"Jun Shen! You… you're so mean!"

Queen Rhine was stunned for a moment, then filled with shame and anger, "How could Jun Shen joke with Rhine like that? This kind of thing, Jun Shen, you… you…"

Queen Rhine turned her back to him, feeling her cheeks burning.

She couldn't help but touch her cheeks, her face already as red as if rouge had been applied, and her breath was hot. She felt ashamed and embarrassed.

That's right, how could she take it seriously?

A man as magnificent as Jun Shen was not someone she could foolishly dream of.

Although she was the Queen of the Elven Kingdom, and had once been hailed as one of the most beautiful women in the starry sky along with Chu Yu Die and others.

But in front of a remarkable man like Jun Shen, she really didn't have the qualifications to aspire to him, she was far from worthy.

She was annoyed that she hadn't calmly considered Jun Shen's joke just now, and had responded to his words without thinking.

Was it because of the ancestor's prophecy, because of the Elven Divine Bow, or because she was grateful for his kindness?

Perhaps all of those reasons played a part.

But thinking about it now, it was really embarrassing…

"Queen, I apologize for my inappropriate words earlier, I have embarrassed you."

"No, Rhine doesn't blame Jun Shen…"

Queen Rhine replied softly with her back to him.

She really didn't blame him, she just felt too ashamed and embarrassed at the time.

That sentence, 'Jun Shen, you're so mean,' was just a subconscious reaction of a maiden when faced with such a situation.

She quickly adjusted her mindset, the blush on her face gradually faded, and the shyness in her eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by agility and clarity. Her eyes seemed to contain all the ethereal energy in the world.

"Jun Shen, please don't call me Queen anymore.

From now on, Jun Shen is the Lord of the Alliance, and Rhine is a member of the Alliance.

The identity of this Queen may be extremely noble to others, but in front of Jun Shen, it is nothing.

Jun Shen, can you just call me Rhine from now on?"

She turned to face him, her ethereal eyes bravely meeting his gaze.

Looking at Queen Rhine at this moment, Jun Wuxie suddenly smiled.

Queen Rhine was stunned, not knowing why Jun Shen was suddenly smiling, and then saw his gaze fall on her face and forehead.

Suddenly, she realized something, reached out to touch her cheeks, and then touched her forehead, her ethereal eyes instantly filled with a layer of mist.

"Jun Shen, you're bullying me…"

Queen Rhine bit her lower lip lightly, lowered her eyes slightly, and a trace of grievance appeared on her beautiful face.

At this moment, she didn't look like a God race Queen at all, but was no different from a delicate woman in the mortal world, appearing pitiful.

"Alright, I'll remove it for you."

Jun Wuxie really wanted to laugh looking at her like this.

He immediately took action and peeled off the power of darkness planted on her forehead.

The two curved horns disappeared along with it.

Then, his fingers gently stroked Queen Rhine's cheeks, and the black little turtles on both cheeks also disappeared.

The tingling sensation from her face, like streams of electricity flowing through her body, made Queen Rhine's delicate body tremble slightly.

She only felt that the tingling sensation seemed to be transmitted to her heart, causing her body to soften and almost lose her balance.

"Rhine, are you alright?"

Jun Wuxie reached out to support her.

Queen Rhine's body trembled as if electrocuted, and she quickly steadied herself, adjusted her state, smiled elegantly and ethereally, and said, "Rhine is fine, thank you for your concern, Jun Shen."

Jun Wuxie smiled faintly, walked to the bonfire and sat down, took out some ingredients from his storage ring, and skewered them with his sword, roasting them over the fire.

These were ingredients he had stored in the Upper Realm back then, high-quality flesh from powerful Primordial Beasts.

"Come and sit."

Jun Wuxie saw Queen Rhine staring at the roasted meat on the sword and smiled, inviting her.

"How can the meat roasted by Jun Shen be so fragrant? The level of essence inside doesn't seem high, but it has a special aura…"

Queen Rhine was very curious and kept looking at the roasted meat dripping with oil.

"The flesh of Primordial beings is naturally special."

"What?"

Queen Rhine was stunned, the flesh of Primordial beings!

The bloodlines of Primordial beings were extremely powerful, and there were many types.

Even Primordial beings with thin bloodlines had very high talent, at the very least equivalent to ordinary geniuses among human cultivators.

Not to mention those with higher bloodline purity.

"Rhine, your Elven race has been eating the dew of heaven and earth and honey for generations, and has never tasted the flavors of the human world.

Why not try it today?"

"Okay."

Just as Jun Wuxie had said, the Elven race had never eaten the flavors of the human world.

They didn't like human food.

If someone else had made such a suggestion, Queen Rhine would definitely have refused, and would have regarded the other party's words as disrespectful and provocative.

But it was Jun Shen who said these words, and she naturally accepted them, and was even curious about them.

What exactly was the taste of the human world?

This was meat roasted by Jun Shen himself.

How many people in the world could taste Jun Shen's cooking, how many people could enjoy such an honor?

Thinking about it, Queen Rhine leaned forward slightly unconsciously, resting her elbows on her legs, supporting her cheeks with her hands, and looking at the bonfire and the golden, oily roasted meat on top.

The flickering flames of the bonfire were reflected in her ethereal, beautiful, sapphire-like pupils, and her sparkling eyes shone under the bonfire.

"Rhine, what are you thinking about?"

Jun Wuxie saw that she was staring at the bonfire and the roasted meat in a daze, and pulled her out of her thoughts.

Queen Rhine smiled lightly and said, "Leaving the Elven Kingdom, coming to the mountains and rivers outside the kingdom, experiencing things I have never experienced before, and experiencing a life I have never experienced before, is indeed a different kind of feeling."

"Life must be like this to be wonderful and more fulfilling.

Not to mention your Elven Kingdom, even the entire God Ancient is just the tip of the iceberg in the vast world.

There are still many vast worlds, many wonderful and magnificent things, that you will have the opportunity to experience in the future."

"Really?"

Queen Rhine's eyes suddenly shone with a bright light, with a hint of longing and anticipation.

"Of course."

Jun Wuxie said with a smile, "Do you want to go to the world above God Ancient and see?

With your talent, it would be a waste to stay in this God Ancient.

As long as the environment allows, your future can go very high and very far, and you can see the scenery beyond the endless God Ancient.

In the long life ahead, you will experience endless wonders and magnificence, and bloom with your own brilliance."

Queen Rhine's mind kept echoing with the words he said, and then she said firmly, "Rhine is willing to follow Jun Shen to experience the more beautiful scenery of life, and to experience the brilliance and magnificence that I never dared to imagine before."

Jun Wuxie smiled without saying a word, tore off a piece of the roasted meat and handed it to her, "Try it and see how it tastes."

Queen Rhine took it, bit off a small piece, and chewed slowly.

Immediately, a rich aroma of meat spread in her mouth.

She closed her eyes, carefully feeling this taste, and a look of enjoyment appeared on her face.

This was the taste of the human world, it was really special.

Compared to the honey and dew eaten by their Elven race, it was a completely different taste, making people's appetite greatly increase.

"Delicious!"

Queen Rhine smiled, her eyes like crescent moons. When she smiled, two shallow dimples appeared on both sides of her mouth, which was extremely sweet.

"If it's delicious, then eat more."

Jun Wuxie said as he also started eating.

It had also been many years since he had eaten food.

He usually didn't have the desire to eat.

Today, he was just idle and happened to roast a piece of meat. The long-lost taste was very good.

"Ah, Jun Shen, I almost forgot, I have something important to tell you!"

Queen Rhine, who was enjoying the delicious food, suddenly remembered something.

She couldn't even bother to eat the meat, put down the meat in her hand, and her expression became serious.

"Rhine has learned that the dark beings have discovered a secret realm in this Frost Continent.

It is said that a rich aura of light once overflowed from the secret realm.

The dark beings speculate that there is a source of light in the secret realm.

They are waiting for the seal at the entrance of the secret realm to dissipate, so that they can enter the secret realm to find the source of light!"

“This origin of heaven and earth must be of great use to the prodigies of our Bright Universe.

It would be a pity if it fell into the hands of the dark creatures.

Upon learning of this news, I was about to bring it back to the Longevity Continent, but I didn't expect to be noticed by a dark powerhouse and chased all the way.

Later, I encountered Lord God.”

“I already know about this matter, having heard the dark powerhouses talking within the dark city in the Borderlands.

That secret realm is located in the mountains near Frostsky Ancient City, not too far from our current location.”

“Yes, the dark creatures have sent many royal prodigies this time.

Now, their royal prodigies have gathered in Frostsky Ancient City.

These days, they have been holding some kind of prodigy gathering, and the participants, in addition to the royal disciples, also include other dark prodigies, all of whom are leaders of the younger generation in the dark world.

Moreover, Rhine has also learned that the reinforcement and upgrading of the passage between the dark world and our God Origin is about to be completed.

Perhaps before long, even more terrifying powerhouses from the dark world will arrive, and we must prepare countermeasures.”

“I also already know about this matter.

In addition to powerhouses above the God Realm, royal prodigies from the dark world will also arrive.

According to the content of their conversations, it is estimated that it should be in a few months, within this year.”

“Then how should we respond?”

Queen Rhine looked solemn.

“You don't need to worry about these things.

Now, what you need to do is to grow safely and cultivate well.

The boundary road between the dark world and our God Origin still has great restrictions.

The realm of the powerhouses they can cross over is still limited, and the number will also be limited, otherwise the boundary road will not be able to withstand it.

This is the fundamental reason why they have not launched a full-scale dark offensive.

Before the torrent of the apocalypse completely breaks out, my mother, Yao'er, Mo Li, and Yu Die will naturally resist all the dark powerhouses who cross over.”

Queen Rhine nodded.

Since Lord God has said so, it seems that he is very confident.

“What about the secret realm? The source of light inside…”

“I will go to the secret realm, and of course I will not let the dark creatures take away the source of light.

There may also be other rare resources inside.

Rhine, would you like to go to the secret realm to take a look?”

“Ah? Can I? This place is already occupied by darkness, I don't know any mystical transformation techniques, how can I enter the secret realm?”

“If you don't know, I do, I can naturally help you disguise as a person from the dark world, and the dark creatures will not see any flaws.

Tomorrow morning, we will go to Frostsky Ancient City and take a look at that so-called prodigy gathering.”

“Go to the prodigy gathering…”

Queen Rhine was stunned.

That place is full of prodigies from the dark world.

There must be many dark powerhouses near the prodigy gathering.

However, going to the prodigy gathering can help one learn a lot about the dark world.

Moreover, those prodigies are all going to enter the secret realm.

In this way, there is no need to guard near the secret realm.

When the secret realm can be entered, someone will announce the news at the prodigy gathering.

By going to the prodigy gathering, one can follow those prodigies and enter the secret realm in a grand manner.
