chapter-1256
"All right, we don't have much more to tell you. Elder Yue should have something to say to you. Hey, it’s not bad if you, little girl, maintain a good relationship with Elder Yue." Mo Yu was pointing to Shen Yanxiao’s blinking eyes as he voiced out his idea.
Shen Yanxiao was silent. After that, she bid farewell to Mo Yu and others then rushed over to Elder Yue’s office.
Upon entering the room, she saw Elder Yue in front of a bookcase, letting go of the book he had just been holding.
"Yan Xiao, what do you think of the elves?" When Elder Yue saw Shen Yanxiao had arrived, he immediately asked with a smile.
"..." Why suddenly ask her such a deep question? If she didn’t know that Elder Yue did not know her real identity, Shen Yanxiao would have really thought that Elder Yue was testing her."The elf is one of the eight major races in the world. They are kind, aloof and proud, and stubborn..." Shen Yanxiao stated the impression of most human beings on the elves.
"Kind?" Elder Yue's face showed a bitter smile. He invited Shen Yanxiao to sit down together in a chair and personally brewed a pot of tea for them.
"Maybe I have been kind."
Elder Yue’s statement made Shen Yanxiao’s heart jump slightly.
"The thing about Shui Ling, I knew from the beginning that it has nothing to do with you, but today's interrogation is indispensable. I hope you can understand." Elder Yue explained.
"I understand." Shen Yanxiao was not an idiot. She knew that such an open interrogation could return her innocence, so Elder Yue just silently went along and did not stop the interrogation.
"Then, do you know how Shui Ling died?" Elder Yue looked at Shen Yanxiao. At this moment, the smile on his face faded, leaving only a trace of seriousness in his eyes.Shen Yanxiao shook her head. She had never seen Shui Ling since that day.
"I will show you, maybe you will understand." Elder Yue said, then he got up and walked toward one of the bookcases. Shen Yanxiao immediately followed closely behind, muttering in her heart if it were possible that Elder Yue was going to let her see Shui Ling’s corpse?
The huge bookcase slowly opened, and a corridor appeared in front of Shen Yanxiao.
Elder Yue took a light-congealing crystal from the bookcase at the side and illuminated the path ahead.
After two minutes of walking, Shen Yanxiao followed Elder Yue to a wide basement, and inside this huge basement, there were over ten transparent crystal coffins!
Ten or so crystal coffins were placed in a row at the basement. Watching the sleeping elves within the crystal coffins, Shen Yanxiao was very startled.
Those elves were already dead, but for Elder Yue to keep their remains here... Why?
Elder Yue walked over to the crystal coffin nearest to the entrance, then gestured for Shen Yanxiao to come close.
Shen Yanxiao took a closer look. Lying in this crystal coffin was Shui Ling whom she fought with a few days ago!
Only at this moment, Shui Ling’s ceaseless chattering mouth has been shut close eternally. He was quietly lying inside the crystal coffin, with green leaves and white petals under his body.
Shui Ling’s originally white face was now devoid of blood, becoming as white as snow; his pale lips were tightly closed, and his long silver hair was spread over his shoulders.
Regardless of how their character was when they were still alive, an elf’s body after death would always be so beautiful.
However, Shen Yanxiao noticed that on Shui Ling’s white neck, there was a black line of blood extending from his neck to his clothes.
This black blood line was particularly eye-catching with that white skin!
