From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword-Chapter 389 - 272 Elf Sword Saint Terence_3

Su Muyu removed the hairpin from her head, held it in her mouth, then used her hands to retie her hair, revealing her forehead, and used a hairband to tie her hair into a ponytail before putting the hairpin back in place.

The hair really does get too messy when flying against the wind.

She simply called the Chongming Bird over to fly in front to block the wind.

"Where are we heading?" She had already committed the map of this continent to memory. If she were heading to the Elf Royal City of Keros, at their current flying speed, they could arrive in at most half a day.

Lu Heng was looking at the map, considering where to go.

The reason he had parted ways with Rong Xincheng and his party wasn’t just because they lacked a mode of transportation, but also for another reason.

Lu Heng was looking for an elf named Sword Saint Terence from the Queldorei Continent.

This was a powerful member of the Elf Clan he had heard of before his rebirth, skilled in swordsmanship.

Once, a Human superpower user had learned a formidable sword technique from this Elf Sword Saint.

With 30 days in the Abyss Battlefield this time, if he made good use of the time, there was hope that he could learn this sword technique.

Of course, that depended on whether he could find the Elf Sword Saint.

Lu Heng had only heard rumors about Sword Saint Terence, mentioning several places, but he wasn’t sure where exactly the Sword Saint was.

"Let’s go check out the Twisted Tower first."

The Twisted Tower was located at the northern edge of Moonshadow Forest and to the west of Storm Cliff; rumors had it that Sword Saint Terence had once appeared near the Twisted Tower.

Since the Twisted Tower was relatively close to Moonshadow Forest, Lu Heng chose this place first.

After flying for half an hour on the Mechanical Tiger, the three of them landed near the Twisted Tower.

The Twisted Tower was a Magic Tower, its shape twisted as if wrung by a giant hand, the body spiraling in a particularly unique way.

Around the Twisted Tower was an encircling wall, forming a courtyard.

Lu Heng and the others landed outside the courtyard, then walked up to the main gate and called out, "Is anyone there?"

A few seconds after his voice carried out, a female Elf’s voice came from inside the Twisted Tower, "Who are you?"

Lu Heng took out the Golden Tree Seed and replied, "We are Humans, from another world. We’ve just come from Moonshadow Forest and are preparing to head to the Elf Royal City, as directed by the forest elder Seren."

Seren held a high status among the Elves; having obtained the Golden Tree Seed from him, interactions with other Elves tended to go much smoother.

The female Elf’s voice from within the Twisted Tower slowed considerably, "Then you should continue north. Keros Royal City is still quite far from here."

Lu Heng explained, "We are not familiar with this land and have some questions we’d like to ask. May we?"

The Twisted Tower fell silent for a moment, and the door on the first floor opened.

A long-haired, pointy-eared, robe-clad female Elf came out, appearing quite young.

However, it was difficult to determine an Elf’s true age based on appearance alone.

"Hello, my name is Lu Heng, and these are my companions. May I ask how to address you?" Lu Heng recognized that the female Elf was an Arcane Master; the robe she wore and the Magic Wand in her hand confirmed it.

"Just call me Ailena."

The Elf Arcanist opened the courtyard gates, but did not invite them in, standing by the door and proposing, "Ask your questions here. The Twisted Tower is not open to outsiders."

Lu Heng had no particular desire to enter anyway, so he got straight to the point, "May I ask, do you know where Elf Sword Saint Terence is?"

The Elf Arcanist Ailena looked surprised, "You’re going to take Seren’s Golden Tree Seed to find Terence?"

"Is there a problem with that?" Lu Heng looked puzzled.

Ailena laughed behind her hand, "Those two Elf Elders... they don’t exactly get along. If Terence knew you were coming from Moonshadow Forest, he might give you a beating."

"Umm..."

Unaware of this information, Lu Heng asked, "Could you tell me more? I don’t want to offend Terence."

Ailena considered for a moment, then said, "Alright, come in."

Clearly, her interest in gossip was ignited; suddenly having someone willing to listen to her stories about the two Elf Elders sparked her enthusiasm.

She invited the three of them in, conjured three cups with her Magic Wand, and filled them with an unknown spring water.

After sitting down, she began to narrate, "Do you know who the current ruler of Kolos City is?"

"Queen Orelana, right?" added Lu Heng.

"That’s correct, Queen Orelana, the most beautiful queen of Queldorei. Before she became queen, she studied with many powerful people of her race..."

Ailena started to tell the story, "Queen Orelana had many teachers, but three famous ones stood out.

"The first was Great Arcanist Augustus, the second was the forest elder Seren, and the third was the Sword Saint you’re looking for, Terence.

"All these teachers were very fond of their student Orelana; who wouldn’t be enamored by such a beautiful Elf girl?

"However, the three teachers had different powers.

"Great Arcanist Augustus was one of the greatest Great Arcanists of Queldorei, holding the truth of the Arcane.

"Forest elder Seren, on the other hand, controlled natural powers, and the plants on the continent listened to his Summoning.

"Sword Saint Terence naturally mastered the strongest swordsmanship of the Elf Clan.

"They all hoped to mold Orelana into what they desired, but their ideals conflicted.

"As a young Elf, Queen Orelana was very intelligent. She studied under all three teachers, but when it came time to specialize in one path, opinions diverged.

"All three teachers hoped that their student, Orelana, would specialize in their respective paths, leading to a dispute.

"As tensions rose among the three, young Queen Orelana couldn’t balance the relationships of her teachers.

"In the end, a contest ensued among the three teachers."

Su Muyu listened intently, eager to know the outcome, "What happened then? Did they fight?"

Ailena shook her head, "No one knows. There are rumors that they had a contest, but no one witnessed it.

"After that incident, Seren and Terence left Kolos City, while Great Arcanist Augustus stayed to continue instructing the young Orelana.

"A few years later, Orelana became queen of the Elf Clan.

"The relationship between Seren and Terence remained poor, continuing to this day without improvement."
