Half-Step Multiple Desires Legend (Complete) - 35

Chapter 508 The Temptation of Desire

In her boredom, Alice observed Maria, recalling the events in the cellar. A flame of desire gradually burned within her.

However, she had to suppress this thought, for the old carpenter was nearby.

Although the dark side of Alice's heart had been thoroughly awakened by Toto, her sense of shame was limited to Toto and Yana. With others present, even if she wanted to do something, shame would prevent her.

The old carpenter's face was gloomy, and a black mist occasionally flashed in his eyes, making him look incredibly eerie.

With him present, the atmosphere was oppressively heavy. Alice sat in her chair, constantly shifting her body, feeling uncomfortable.

Footsteps sounded.

A clear look of joy appeared on Alice's pretty face. Now, whoever appeared here to break the oppressive atmosphere would be a delightful thing for her.

A moment later, Toto and Duchess Martha appeared together at the door.

Dodo made a strange gesture to the old carpenter, who rose silently and walked out of the room like a puppet.

Maria, seeing this, felt a pang of sorrow, her eyes fixed sadly on her father's retreating figure until he disappeared through the doorway.

Alice, however, felt a surge of joy. The old carpenter's departure brought her a sense of relief and clarity. She didn't know when it had started, but seeing Dodo now triggered an instinctive excitement. "

Master, you've arrived?" Alice rose to greet Dodo respectfully, her eyes darting between Dodo and Duchess Martha behind him. Duchess Martha's mature beauty also held a certain allure for Alice. Alice began to wonder. Was this woman a new favorite brought by her master, like Maria, to be trained? Dodo

nodded, then looked at Maria, his eyes cold, and said, "You don't seem to see me, do you?"

Maria's body trembled violently. Forced by circumstances, she reluctantly rose and said, "Master..." Duchess Martha looked at Alice and Maria in astonishment, then at Toto with curiosity. She had to re-evaluate this man... An elven man who had not only conquered the elven princess but also possessed such an outstanding human female slave was not only rare but practically unique.

Duchess Martha began to feel more at ease about her indulgence the previous night. Such a charming man must be a woman's dream lover, but not every woman could possess him, and Duchess Martha was precisely one of those women she had once possessed.

Sometimes, such feelings could give a woman a sense of satisfaction, especially for a standard socialite like Duchess Martha, a woman who took pleasure in seducing men.

Toto sat casually in the chair Alice had just been sitting in, and after glancing at Alice, Alice obediently stepped forward to gently massage Toto's shoulders.

Toto let out a long breath and comfortably half-closed his eyes. After gently patting Alice's hand in encouragement, he began to scrutinize Duchess Martha.

Duchess Martha's attire today differed from last night's. Last night's banquet was characterized by its opulent and luxurious style, while today's purple gown was less formal and more casual. Gone was the opulent grandeur, replaced by a unique, languid charm.

In terms of figure, Duchess Martha and Alice were somewhat similar—both were tall, voluptuous, and stunningly beautiful. However, upon closer inspection, Alice's size was slightly smaller than Duchess Martha's, as the mature woman was already a mother.

Dodo's gaze filled Duchess Martha with both excitement and nervousness.

Although the nobility of the Elven Empire were known for their unrestrained and wild behavior in bed, with one emperor and multiple empresses being commonplace

, Duchess Martha had never experienced anything like it!

Don't forget, no matter how widespread her fame spreads, no matter how many suitors she has, she is still a duchess, and she must maintain a certain aristocratic reserve.

She can sleep with a man she finds satisfactory, at least in terms of power and appearance, but she absolutely forbids other women from being in bed with her. This should be considered a principle. In her mind, she is far superior to other women in terms of both means and power, and she will not allow herself to enjoy sexual pleasure in bed on an equal footing with them.

If it were just her and Duo Duo alone at this moment, perhaps she would have already clung to him. After last night's passion, they could be considered acquaintances.

However, there are two other women beside her, and Duo Duo is looking at her with such wanton and unrestrained eyes, which inevitably makes her a little nervous.

Could this man be thinking of...? Duchess Martha pondered. If Duo Duo really made such a request, should she refuse or break her principles?

Duo Duo is a rising star in the Giant Tree Elf Empire, a consensus already reached among the nobles.

Similarly, as a woman who had once shared his passions, Duchess Martha knew all too well that this man possessed a masculine endowment and unimaginable stamina unmatched by any other elven man, especially his skill—just thinking about it made her lower abdomen heat up. "

Your Excellency, Duchess, you should now state your purpose," Dodo said with a smile.

Duchess Martha snapped back to reality, feeling the sensations her body had experienced during her recent reverie, her face flushing crimson, making her appear even more alluring, causing Dodo to secretly swallow. "

Mr. Dodo, I have a favor to ask of you…" Duchess Martha said tentatively. "

What is it? Tell me, I'll do my best if it's within my power," Dodo said readily.

Duchess Martha said, "This is truly difficult to say. You know my son, Andre, he… oh, I know, that handsome young man, um? What about him?" Dodo asked, recalling how he had slept with that rascal's mother in front of Andre last night, Dodo still felt incredibly aroused.

"He wants revenge on you..." Duchess Martha said softly.

"Huh? Revenge?" "Yes, but he's a very spirited man!" "If that's really what he's thinking, I'll accept his duel!" Dodo smiled and said. "

Oh! No, no, no! You've completely misunderstood me. I hope you won't stoop to his level, please... please don't duel with him..." Duchess Martha said urgently.

Dodo now completely understood Duchess Martha's intention. She had witnessed Dodo's strength last night and knew very well that her precious son was no match for this man. The so-called duel was nothing short of a suicide mission.

As a mother, no matter how promiscuous her conduct, she still possessed maternal love, and she absolutely could not stand by and watch Andre die.

A barely perceptible smile appeared on Dodo's lips as she said with a troubled expression, "Your Excellency, if Andre challenges me, wouldn't I lose my dignity if I didn't accept the challenge?" "Alright, because of your words, I might be willing to abandon my dignity, but please don't forget that Princess Lucy is behind me, and I have to think of her!"

Duchess Martha said anxiously. "Don't worry, I will definitely stop Andri from doing such a foolish thing!"

Dodo laughed and said, "If you could really do that, you wouldn't need to come here to beg me, would you?"

Duchess Martha was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to do.

Dodo rose and walked to Duchess Martha, placing her hand on her shoulder and gently massaging it. She said softly, "Instead of asking me not to duel him, would it be more practical to ask me to spare his life if a duel is unavoidable?" "

Is that alright?" Duchess Martha's eyes lit up. She exclaimed in surprise, "In the Elven Empire, duels between nobles are commonplace, but they are often fought to the death, using the blood of the dead to enhance the glory of the victor."

"Of course!" Dodo lowered her head, almost touching Duchess Martha's face, and whispered, "How could I bear to let such a beauty suffer the grief of losing her son? Aren't we already the closest of friends? If you wish, we can be even closer in the future..." Duchess Martha was incredibly shrewd and charming; otherwise, how could she be such a social butterfly?

Hearing Duo Duo's words, she immediately understood his meaning. Looking up at him, she smiled seductively and said, "Handsome sir, I long to become your closer friend..." Duo Duo smiled and said, "That would be perfect. You'll gain more than you imagine..." As he spoke, Duo Duo, without any hesitation, placed his hand on the fair skin exposed by Duchess Martha's high neckline, and slowly moved it downwards...

(Chapter 509, The Second Exception)

Even though Duchess Martha wanted to please Duo Duo physically, Alice and Maria were nearby, and her long-held principles prevented her from completely letting go. Although she didn't stop Duo Duo from kneading her breasts, her body was noticeably stiff.

Duo Duo, by this time, was already a seasoned womanizer, understanding women's bodies even better than women themselves.

The tension at his fingertips made him immediately understand Duchess Martha's thoughts. He carefully observed Duchess Martha's blushing face and her eyes frequently glancing at Alice and Maria.

Dodo couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. Perhaps this was a classic case of wanting to be a prostitute while also maintaining a virtuous image?

Damn it, who in Giant Tree City didn't know Duchess Martha's reputation for promiscuity? Yet, in this matter, she still maintained some ridiculous sense of modesty.

In Dodo's eyes, there were only two kinds of women: those he loved and those he didn't. There was no distinction based on status or position, so naturally, he wouldn't understand Duchess Martha's thoughts.

After a moment's hesitation, Dodo laughed and withdrew his hand. His earlier probing had left Duchess Martha's neckline even wider, revealing a deep cleavage.

Dodo smiled at the puzzled Duchess Martha, turned, and sat back down in his chair, saying, "Princess Alice, this duchess seems to need you to teach her how to completely please a man!"

"Princess?" Duchess Martha's body trembled, staring at Alice in disbelief.

Good heavens!

Was this beautiful woman really a princess? Duchess Martha simply couldn't believe it.

Dodo looked at Duchess Martha and smiled contemptuously, saying, "Your Excellency, if you think the title of Duchess is high, you are sorely mistaken. At least, among my female slaves, none are inferior to you, and some are even far superior!"

At this moment, Alice was already kneeling obediently before Dodo, unbuttoning his trousers. Dodo slipped his hand into Alice's collar, kneading her large, full breasts, and said to Duchess Martha, "This is a female slave I like very much. Even she is a princess of the Human Empire. Do you think your status is higher than hers?" "

Before my master, I am merely his obedient slave…" Alice whispered.

Maria watched Alice's actions from the side, secretly despising her, but she had to admit that Alice was a very clever woman.

If Dodo had summoned her instead of Alice, she probably would have been just as obedient as Alice was now.

Alice gently massaged Toto's crotch while tenderly unbuttoning his pants. Toto slightly raised his buttocks to make it easier for Alice to pull them down.

When the pants were down to his knees, his lower body wasn't very erect, which gave Alice an opportunity to please him. She gently stroked it, her tongue licking it incessantly.

Duchess Martha, watching from the side, was completely stunned!

She had done similar things before, but she couldn't imagine a princess doing such a thing in front of others.

Would Princess Lucy do this too?

Under Alice's skillful oral sex, Toto's lower body slowly rose and hardened. The sight of his large member made Duchess Martha's heart tremble.

Alice opened her small mouth and slowly took the large tip into her mouth, teasing it with her small hand. "Swallowing and swallowing...so good..." Dodo let out a satisfied groan, placing his hand on the back of Alice's head, and exclaimed admiringly, "Alice, your oral skills are getting better and better...Mmm...As long as Master likes it..." Alice mumbled, then swallowed and swallowed even more vigorously. "

Maria, come here..." Dodo said, waving his hand.

Maria hesitated, then reluctantly approached Dodo. Like a lamb, what ability or courage did she have to resist this wolf? "

Unbutton your clothes, let me see if your breasts have gotten any bigger lately?" Dodo commanded crudely.

Maria slowly unbuttoned her clothes, and her full, round breasts sprang out like rabbits, the pink nipples sparkling like two jewels in the dim light. Even Duchess Martha, being a woman, couldn't help but blush. "

Hmm? Why do they seem a little smaller? Is it because I haven't been massaging them lately?" Dodo's large hand grabbed Maria's breast and kneaded it forcefully. The force was so strong that Maria winced.

"What? Are you uncomfortable?" Dodo raised an eyebrow and glanced at Maria.

Maria gasped and whispered, "No, no..." Dodo nodded in satisfaction and continued kneading and playing with it. Dodo's heart hadn't softened at all towards Maria. Every time he thought about how this woman had almost killed him, his heart turned as cold as iron. Dodo pulled

hard, and Maria cried out in pain, her body lurching forward, landing right in Dodo's arms.

Dodo held Maria, opening his mouth to enjoy her beautiful, tempting nipple, but compared to the previous kneading, this time it was much gentler.

Maria couldn't help but groan. This feeling of alternating between hell and heaven gave her a strange pleasure.

Duchess Martha stared, somewhat stunned. This man was so blatantly lewd in front of her, even giving her a look of encouragement. Undeniably, as she watched Dodo's enormous member being swallowed and released in Alice's mouth, Duchess Martha's body went limp, and her breathing became rapid.

Dodo, enjoying the pleasure of his lower body moving in and out of Alice's mouth while savoring the sweetness of Maria's breasts, was incredibly pleased, his lust burning fiercely.

"Alice, get up," Dodo said, gently patting Alice's head.

Alice looked up at Dodo, reluctantly releasing his member.

Dodo chuckled, "My little slave girl, I've seemed to neglect you lately. Seeing how well you've been behaving, how about your master feeds your little mouth full today?"

Alice was overjoyed. She knew that within the magic of the chastity ring, the key to her desires lay in Toto's hands. Toto was the only one in the world who could give her physical pleasure, and Alice, of course, was a woman with a very strong sex drive.

Hearing Toto's words, Alice lost all restraint. It would be a shame to miss such an opportunity; who knew when Toto would be in such a good mood again?

Duchess Martha stared in disbelief as the princess undressed, as if everyone else in the room was invisible, and only Toto and she existed.

Toto embraced the naked Alice around the waist, then leaned back, spreading his legs wider, his large member erect and proud like a flagpole between them.

Then, Toto adjusted Alice's position, so that her back was to him, but she was facing Duchess Martha… *slap slap*… Toto slapped Alice's plump buttocks hard, creating a dazzling wave of flesh, and said: "Sit down!"

Alice grabbed his erect member, aligned it, and slowly sat down.

As the intense feeling of fullness returned, Alice let out a joyful moan, then placed her hands on Duo Duo's legs and slowly lifted her hips up and down… Having been deprived of sexual pleasure for a long time, Alice needed time to adjust. Although she eagerly craved that ecstatic pleasure, she could only take it slowly. However, she knew Duo Duo was incredibly capable and would surely satisfy her completely.

Mmm… Oh… Gradually, Alice's movements became more intense, her juices overflowing with each thrust of the massive member, making soft, wet sounds.

Duchess Martha watched the exquisite body before her, no less beautiful than her own, undulating up and down, her large, white breasts rippling in waves. Even she had never witnessed such a lewd scene before.

Hot!

At this moment, Duchess Martha's most obvious feeling was heat!

Often, even when she was wanton in the face of sex, she still maintained a certain grace. In her view, undressing was a skill; the speed and method of undressing were all carefully considered to achieve extreme allure for a man.

Last night was clearly an exception with Dodo. The setting was in the garden, and she was facing a rather rude man like Dodo. Most importantly, she was under the influence of alcohol, and she desperately wanted to know what it was like to be the princess's man. Therefore, she didn't display her usual composure.

But now, Duchess Martha realized that with this man, she would be making a second exception. The price of this exception would be the complete shattering of her noblewomanly pretense and the trampling of her promiscuous principles!

(Chapter 511)

Dodo, the female slave of Martha, exerted no effort, completely letting Alice enjoy herself on him as she pleased. His hands freely fondled Maria's full breasts. This feeling was simply too wonderful; effortless physical pleasure was something few could experience.

Under Dodo's skillful kneading, Maria felt her body becoming increasingly strange. She wasn't unfamiliar with this feeling, and from her previous experiences, she knew that if this feeling were to flare up, it would completely engulf her reason, making her no different from Alice now.

"Mmm..." Maria let out a soft moan, her hands gripping the chair tightly to control her body.

She always felt that although she had been defiled by the devil, she still had dignity. She was better than Alice; that wretched woman had already fallen to the core.

Perhaps this was the proverb "a crow landing on a pig"?

Or perhaps it was a way of self-comfort?

No matter what Maria thought, in Toto's eyes, she would eventually become like Alice. Toto even wanted to train her to be more lewd than Alice. "

Duchess Martha, why is your face so red?" Toto teased Duchess Martha. "

Oh, my little slave girl, sit down a little lower, a little deeper, wouldn't that be better? Don't you want your master to fuck you hard, to thrust to the deepest point?" Toto gently patted Alice's back and said.

Then, Toto said to Maria: "Maria, don't you want to help Alice? To make her happier? Go, go to the front and properly serve Alice's big breasts, hmm, I think you're already very familiar with this, aren't you?"

Maria reluctantly left Toto's side and walked to Alice's side. Grasping Alice's trembling breasts, she occasionally licked her cherry-like nipples with her tongue. Just as Dodo had said, these actions were all too familiar to her; she had done them countless times during Alice's training in the cellar.

Oh…so good…mmm…with Maria's help, Alice felt even more wonderful, pleasure surging through every cell of her body like a tidal wave. She moved up and down forcefully, her hands reaching out to grab Maria's breasts and kneading them hard.

Duchess Martha was completely dumbfounded…her body felt limp as if boneless, and she could clearly feel it herself. Love fluid gushed from her lower body, slowly flowing down her thighs.

She grabbed the corner of the table beside her, afraid she would collapse to the ground and embarrass herself on the spot.

Duchess Martha's beautiful face flushed crimson, her breathing noticeably rapid. She knew that despite her best efforts to control herself, she was losing control. She tried to look away, but her gaze remained fixed on the passionate scene of lovemaking, as if she were frozen in place.

Her breathing grew heavier. Her legs rubbed together beneath her skirt, the movements subtle, yet the form-fitting nature of the silk dress made them unmistakable. Dodo smiled

seductively and said, "Duchess Martha, wouldn't you like to join our game?"

This question filled Duchess Martha with immense inner conflict. She wanted to! She desperately wanted to! But her legs were too weak to obey her; she was prepared to break her principles. Why didn't this alluring man take the initiative and pull her into the fray?

Dodo only tempted her with words, offering no intention of rising to meet her.

Chapter 511 "Let's keep acting

! My dear slave girl, your little mouth satisfies me very much, so, work even harder and prepare to swallow the reward your master gives you..." Duo Duo placed his hand on Duchess Martha's head and said lewdly.

Then, his hand began to exert slight force, and his lower body began to thrust forward... Ugh... Duchess Martha gagged from Duo Duo's sudden attack, but slowly she adapted. She wasn't a novice, but an expert in bed; these techniques were already incredibly skillful.

Duo Duo's strength increased, each thrust reaching Duchess Martha's throat.

Duchess Martha also tried her best to respond, wanting to use all her techniques to satisfy Duo Duo.

Gradually, Duo Duo's breathing became rapid, and his movements became more exaggerated.

After dozens of thrusts, Duo Duo let out a muffled groan and ejaculated a large amount of semen.

At that very moment, Duchess Martha suddenly hugged Toto's buttocks tightly, forcefully swallowing him, allowing the tip of Toto's erect penis to fully enjoy the movement of her throat, and swallowing all of Toto's ejaculated semen.

Comfortable!

Exhilarating!

With Duchess Martha, Toto fully experienced the beauty of a mature woman, something the women around him couldn't do.

A moment later, after Duchess Martha had swallowed all of Toto's semen, she released her gradually softening erection, looked up at Toto with pity, licked the semen from her lips with her tongue, and then lowered her head to lick Toto's lower body again… A beauty… Toto's praise for Duchess Martha was all contained in those three words.

This was different from last night, when it was merely pure physical pleasure. He had been a little impatient because of Andre's appearance.

But today was different. There was plenty of time; from the prelude to the end, everything proceeded methodically, showcasing all the beauty.

Dodo's desires were satisfied, but Duchess Martha wasn't quite done. While serving him, she looked at him with almost pleading, lustful eyes.

Dodo, however, had no desire for another round. He and Duchess Martha had already wasted a lot of time here, and if they went back, who knew how Lucy and the others would question them?

Compared to Lucy, Yana, and the Wandering Soul, these three women were merely playthings to Dodo.

He would never neglect his beloved women for the sake of playthings.

Dodo chuckled and pushed Duchess Martha away. Then, after adjusting his trousers, he said, "My slave girl, rewards aren't given out anytime. It depends on your performance..." Duchess Martha pleaded, "Master, give it to me..." Duo Duo looked down and saw a palm-sized black mark on the front of her thin purple silk dress, secretly marveling at how much moisture this woman possessed... Duo Duo smiled, "Want it? Sure, then you can stay here and enjoy yourself."

Then, Duo Duo turned to Maria, his gaze making Maria uneasy. Duo Duo said, "Maria, she's yours now. Satisfy her well. You seem quite good at this, don't you,

Alice? Keep a close eye on Maria. If she doesn't do it right, I don't mind how you punish her! Of course, if my slave girl Martha doesn't get her satisfaction, you'll be the one punished." Duo Duo said coldly.

Alice had regained some strength, but was still limp on the ground. Hearing Dodo's command, she nodded slightly: "Yes, Master, please rest assured..." Dodo lifted Duchess Martha from the ground, kissing her earlobe and saying: "Enjoy yourself, and let me teach you how to serve your master in the future. Duchess Martha, I remind you again, from now on you are my slave girl, and I am your master! And I only want my slave girl to serve me alone, and to be absolutely loyal. If you do well, you will receive unexpected benefits; if you don't... hehe... I don't need to remind you of the consequences, do I? You don't want that day to come, do you? I don't want it either!"

After saying that, Dodo turned and left the room. Under Alice's cold gaze, Maria reluctantly walked towards Duchess Martha... Morning.

Lucy and Dodo put on a show.

Lucy seemed to still hold a grudge, arguing loudly with Dodo, acting like a child, complaining about her father's coldness towards her.

After a brief commotion, Duo Duo's attempts to persuade her failed. Lucy stormed out of Duke Os's residence, tears streaming down her face, and ran towards the palace. Duo Duo could only apologize to Duke Os and, with Yana and the wandering spirit, chased after her.

Once they were far away, Duke Os's smiling face darkened, and he coldly scrutinized their retreating figures.

Duke Os was confident that everything Lucy and her companions had done at the palace wouldn't escape his notice; the palace was now filled with his spies.

Since they were putting on an act, they had to play their part convincingly.

Lucy kept glancing back at Duo Duo and the others, feigning tears, panting heavily, her forehead beaded with sweat.

The guards, seeing the princess storm in, dared not stop or question her. They

could only watch helplessly as Lucy burst through the palace gates, followed by Duo Duo and the others who rushed in like a gust of wind.

Lucy played a trick. Although she entered her father's palace, she didn't go to see His Majesty the King. Instead, she circled around and muttered to herself before running towards the Prince's palace.

Duo Duo called out from behind, feigning concern: "My princess, His Highness the Prince is unwell, please don't disturb him..." Though she said this, Duo Duo's steps didn't falter.

In Chapter 512, the enlightened older brother

Duo Duo said with some surprise: "Since you haven't recovered, just continue to rest. Anyway, I'm used to you old lecher pretending to be dead all the time!"

"You brat, what you said hurts this old man so much! Am I pretending to be dead? Let me tell you, you can't comprehend the powerful corrosive force of purgatory on the soul. Even now, sensing that aura, I can't help but tremble!" Zhang said, still shaken.

Duo Duo chuckled and said: "Old lecher, you said it yourself!" "Hehe...finally found something you're afraid of. I'll learn Purgatory Magic from Booker later, and if you dare challenge me again, I'll teach you a lesson with Purgatory!"

Zhang laughed loudly. "You can brag, but you don't have any magic at all. Don't even mention such complex dark magic; you can't even master the most basic spells. Kid, you're not going to scare this old man!"

Duo Duo chuckled mischievously. "Yeah, I don't have any magic at all, you old pervert. Don't forget, Wandering Soul is skilled in necromancy...tsk tsk...my precious woman will definitely listen to me..." Zhang's voice immediately softened. "Kid, you...you're just kidding, right?"

"Kidding?" Duo Duo snorted coldly. "We'll see how you perform in the future."

"Kid, hehe...do we still need that?" "Sigh...we've already built such a deep friendship..." Zhang said somewhat ingratiatingly. Dodo laughed heartily. He was just teasing this old lecher. He'd already heard that Purgatory Magic was only used to harm people and had no offensive power. He wouldn't let his woman waste her time and energy creating such a useless thing. Besides, with Booker practicing, wasn't it the same?

While Dodo and Da Nian were playfully teasing each other

, Booker's Purgatory Magic was nearing its end. A gray aura slowly appeared on the prince's body, like a thread being pulled out, and was then absorbed by Booker. The prince's complexion gradually regained some color, and his breathing became heavy. Lucy

, who had been watching from the side, couldn't help but cry tears of joy at this sight.

Dodo walked to Lucy's side, gently put his arm around her shoulder, and said, "My little princess, you must control your emotions, be careful not to be noticed by outsiders."

Lucy looked at Dodo with teary eyes, nodded, and walked to the bedside. She knelt down and whispered in the prince's ear, "Brother, you can hear me now, can't you?" Someone is saving you now, and you'll be fully recovered in no time. But remember, lie still and don't move! Listen to me, okay? If you can hear me, move your fingers.

A moment later, the prince's fingers twitched slightly, and Lucy immediately grabbed his hand with overwhelming joy.

When the gray aura on the prince's body disappeared, Booker stopped the strange chanting.

Only then did Duoduo realize the dangers of Purgatory Magic; no wonder the wandering spirits said few people practiced it. Not to mention the prince's torment, even Booker, who used the magic, was trembling. His face was as white as a sheet.

The prince's body twitched slightly, and he opened his eyes a crack, looking at Lucy with immense joy. However, because of Lucy's earlier warning, his movements were very small, and only those nearby could see them.

"Brother... Lucy is back." Lucy held the prince's hand tightly, crying as she spoke.

The prince said in a very soft voice, "My sister, you're finally back! Father and I missed you so much..." Dodo didn't want Lucy to linger too long; after all, there was plenty of time in the future, but time was short now, and every moment of carelessness could reveal a flaw.

After a moment's hesitation, Dodo approached Lucy, gently patted her shoulder, and said, "Lucy, there's plenty of time in the future. Now, quickly tell your brother the important matter..." The prince looked at Dodo with surprise. This man was so close to his sister; he hadn't expected that the child from before had truly grown into a young woman.

Lucy said, "Brother, this... this is my future husband, his name is Dodo."

Then, she said to Duoduo, "This is my brother, Prince Linton."

Duoduo smiled politely. This brother-in-law looked quite handsome, and his face was very kind. It seemed Lucy was right.

Due to the current situation, Prince Linton couldn't get up, so he could only nod slightly to Duoduo.

Following Duoduo's instructions, Lucy quickly told Prince Linton everything: Duke Os's conspiracy, Prince Silver Eagle's intervention—everything shocked Prince Linton. Like Lucy, he never imagined that his kind uncle had such great ambitions.

When it came to the Dark Elves, Prince Linton hesitated. Although he was relatively open-minded, this was no small matter. He knew that the Archelves had a deep-seated hostility instilled in them from childhood.

However, he didn't object. His beloved sister's request, and the fact that he wouldn't have known about Duke Os's conspiracy without the Dark Elves—he felt he had to repay that debt of gratitude.

Moreover, Prince Linton was never an ambitious man. The throne, a coveted prize for others, was a burden to him. He had long desired his sister to ascend the throne while he pursued his own interests. Now,

Lucy's actions clearly involved politics, and Prince Linton was more inclined to guide her slowly, allowing him to relax.

(Chapter 513: A Duel to the Death)

Even though Yana was very careful, the aura of the Death Spider Queen's energy still couldn't escape the detection of the crystal ball in the main hall of the Temple of Nature.

In the elven territories, the capitals of the three great empires had long ago been protected by a massive magic array set up by the Temple of Nature. Firstly, to regulate the temperature for plant growth; secondly, for detection purposes, to prevent the Dark Elves from infiltrating the capitals and causing trouble. At this moment

, in the main hall of the Temple of Nature,

Saint Mulan remained as exquisitely beautiful as ever, her stunningly pretty face displaying a serene calm, radiating a holy aura that inspired reverence.

She silently gazed at the shimmering crystal ball, the size of a head, beneath the feet of the Goddess of Nature.

Beside her stood three elderly elves with white beards almost reaching their feet, clad in snow-white robes; they were the three high priests of the Temple of Nature: Light, Water, and Earth!

The three priests understood the information displayed by the crystal ball, yet none spoke, awaiting the opinion of Saintess Mulan.

For some reason, Saintess Mulan had recently behaved differently at meetings concerning the Night Elves, rarely offering her opinions, and when she did, they were often astonishing.

For instance, on one occasion, Saintess Mulan held up an ancient parchment tome, claiming that the Great Elves and Night Elves were of the same origin ten thousand years ago.

Praise to the Goddess of Nature!

How could this be?

How could the elegant and noble Great Elves be of the same origin as those cruel and lowly Night Elves?

Although everyone knew this possibility was highly likely, because the Saintess's legacy not only inherited the energy of the Goddess of Nature but also the crystallized wisdom of successive Saintessses—a gate of knowledge that only Saintess could enter.

However, in all these ten thousand years, which saintess has ever said such a thing?

Every time they pursued those heretics of the Night Elf race, every saintess relentlessly advocated for the complete extermination of the heretics!

The three priests exchanged glances, then looked together at Saintess Mulan. They hoped that Mulan's previous words were merely out of a seriousness about knowledge, and not for any other reason.

If that were the case, the three priests could only exercise their ultimate right as priests, restrain the saintess, and begin searching for the next saintess.

Saintess Mulan remained silent, her exquisite face showing not a trace of emotion. Her clear eyes shone with wisdom, making it impossible to guess her thoughts.

The Light Priestess finally couldn't contain herself any longer and said: "The heretics have actually infiltrated the Great Tree Elf Empire! Goddess of Nature, do those heretics intend to cause some kind of destruction? We should truly obey your will and exterminate all those heretics. We should not give them any chance to breathe!"

The Light Priestess broke the heavy atmosphere. The Water and Earth priests immediately echoed their agreement and began to inquire of Saintess Mulan, "Your Highness, the heretics have entered our elven territory. Let me lead some Nature Archers to Giant Tree City to find and completely eradicate them!" the Water priest said in a deep voice.

Mulan turned to look at them and suddenly said, "I will go myself. Since the heretics have entered our territory, they must be completely eradicated. We cannot allow them to do anything that violates the laws of the Goddess of Nature!"

Her meaning was very clear!

The Light, Water, and Earth priests couldn't help but show their delight. It seemed that, as they had expected, Saintess Mulan's shocking words earlier were merely a momentary curiosity about knowledge. In her heart, she was still adhering to her duty to eradicate heretics.

The Earth priest smiled and said, "Your Highness, how can such a small matter trouble you so much? Leave it to us. We will convey your will well." Saintess Mulan

smiled and shook her head, saying, "It would be good to take this opportunity to visit the Giant Tree Elf Empire." "I wonder if there's any news about that runaway candidate for sainthood. Heh, I'm curious, why would she choose to give up the position of saintess?"

"Yes, yes, she actually gave up such great honor! If it weren't for your mercy, the entire royal family would have suffered the punishment of our Temple of Nature!" said the Light Priest.

Saintess Mulan smiled, not responding directly, but turning back to face the statue of the Goddess of Nature, saying, "Go prepare, I'm leaving for Giant Tree City tomorrow." As the three priests of Light, Water, and Earth left, a wise light flashed in Saintess Mulan's eyes, and she murmured, "Great Goddess of Nature, please forgive me, your most loyal follower Mulan, for now resorting to tricks… I only wish for peace…" In Giant Tree City, Duoduo encountered something that excited him.

Shortly after leading Yana, Lucy, and the Wandering Soul away from the palace, on the most bustling street, Andri, dressed in a white elven mage's robe, solemnly blocked Duoduo's path, accompanied by several of his mischievous friends. "

I challenge you to a duel!" "That's the gesture of a duel to the death between nobles..." Andrei made a strange gesture.

Dodo was excited because he'd only ever seen such gentlemanly duels in movies and TV shows in his previous life; the victor was incredibly cool. Dodo was currently worried about how to make a name for himself in Giant Tree City, and now the opportunity had arrived. Although Duchess Martha had mentioned Andrei's desire for revenge, she hadn't expected it to come so quickly. "

That's the gesture of a duel to the death between nobles..." Lucy whispered to Dodo.

"To the death?"

Dodo sneered, scrutinizing Andrei, inwardly cursing, "Damn you, little panda! If your mother hadn't pleaded for you first, I would have smashed your bones!"

Andrei's face was filled with bitter resentment. Dodo's insult was too much; he couldn't swallow this insult.

Although he knew this terrifying individual possessed astonishing strength, and that he was far from being a match for him, Andri knew that since he dared to challenge him, he must have a trump card. His friend, Hillary, had acquired a treasure he had never even dared to dream of: a death scroll crafted by the three high priests of the Temple of Nature. It had been used in the past to exterminate the Night Elves, and he didn't know how such a scroll had survived, let alone ended up in Hillary's possession.

Regardless, Andri was very grateful for his friend's generosity!

With this legendary scroll, almost as powerful as a forbidden spell, he finally mustered his courage and stood before Dodo. "

If you're cowardly, then get out of Giant Tree City!" Andrei said coldly.

Chapter 514: Please Spare Me!

Lucy said, "We went to the temple together to learn magic when we were little, hmph, but this princess has no interest in that stuff and is too lazy to learn."

As they spoke, everyone had entered the center of the square.

A steady stream of people followed, and some nobles who had heard the news also came to watch the duel.

At this moment, Duchess Martha ran over in a panicked manner, her steps somewhat unsteady. Alice and Maria must have given her a hard time last night.

"Oh, Your Excellency Duchess Martha, your information network is truly impressive," Dodo said with a smile.

Duchess Martha said nervously, "My...sir, please don't forget your promise to me."

Dodo said, "Of course I won't forget, please rest assured."

As he said this, Duo Duo thought to himself, "Damn it, I agree, but if it comes to a last resort, I won't care about anything else. My safety is the most important thing!"

"Andrei, what is your mother saying to that bastard?" Hillary asked with amusement.

Andrei's face flushed red with anger. At this crucial moment of the duel, instead of cheering him on, his mother went to that bastard and said something. He simply couldn't accept it.

Andrei snorted coldly and began chanting a spell. After a simple drifting technique, he levitated, his white robe fluttering, looking rather ethereal and elegant, drawing cheers from the surrounding young ladies and noblewomen. "

Come on, let's begin!" Andrei shouted angrily.

Duo Duo glanced at Duchess Martha and smiled, "I have to go over there, or your son will get anxious."

With that, Duo Duo strode towards Andrei.

As he approached, Duo Duo looked up at Andrei in mid-air. He couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. What an idiot! In a life-or-death duel like this, he still has the nerve to show off? So what if you're in mid-air? My basic knightly code isn't just for show; I'll whip up a spear brimming with nine yang energy in a minute. You bastard, I'll skewer you and roast you like lamb!

Just as Lucy said, this duel location was carefully chosen by Andrei. It has an endless water source, a perfect battleground for water mages. Using water magic not only conserves mana but also makes it more powerful.

Andrei looked down at Duoduo. He reached into his robes, using the Death Scroll to bolster his courage. He had no choice; Duoduo had instilled too much fear in Andrei in the gardens of Duke Os's mansion. Facing this unimaginably powerful opponent, his only weapon of choice was this Death Scroll. "

What are you waiting for?" Duoduo looked up at Andrei, laughing mockingly.

Andrei's face flushed red with anger, and he began chanting a spell: "Endless water element, grant me endless mana… Water Tornado!"

Dodo was taking a huge risk. If he simply wanted to defeat Andre, he could have attacked while Andre was chanting his spell, exploiting the mage's weakness to give him a sound beating.

However, he didn't do that. With a large crowd watching, Dodo wanted to make a name for himself in this battle!

As Andre's spell progressed, a crystal-clear water droplet in front of him frantically absorbed the surrounding water elements, growing larger and larger.

When Andre finished his spell, the massive water element, with immense power, swept towards Dodo… Andre clearly had no confidence that this water tornado spell would harm Dodo. He hurriedly continued to accumulate magic power, preparing his next spell. In the central square, water magic was inexhaustible; he planned to at least make this guy flustered, let the surrounding crowd laugh at him, and gain some face for himself.

Dodo coldly watched the water dragon attack. Since he was deliberately trying to establish his dominance, there was no dodging; everything would be a head-on collision. Damn this little panda, let's see who's afraid of who!

A collective gasp erupted from the surrounding crowd, creating a massive wave of sound. Everyone stared in disbelief at the fiery red aura of Nine Yang energy emanating from Duo Duo's body.

The Great Elves, almost all magic practitioners, immediately recognized that Duo Duo wasn't using magic.

Martial arts?

Like everyone who had witnessed Duo Duo's fighting before, they were astonished. How could a Great Elf use martial arts?

And it seemed incredibly powerful; otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to duel a mage like Andri.

Whoosh… When the waterspout struck the red Nine Yang energy shield in front of Duo Duo, it produced a series of loud noises. Thick white steam rose into the air like giant mushrooms. Yet, the seemingly imposing waterspout hadn't even budged Duo Duo's body in the slightest.

Putting everything else aside, this duel alone was enough to show that Andri's energy strength was far inferior to Duo Duo's. If Andri hadn't resorted to any other means, the outcome would already be clear.

As the waterspout vanished, evaporated by the Nine Yang energy, Andri's next spell followed in quick succession. A vast curtain of water, seemingly summoning rivers, lakes, and seas, surged towards Duo Duo. The water curtain in the central square trembled under Andri's excessive manipulation of water elements, and many onlookers were suddenly drenched by the shortening water curtain. Duo Duo

rapidly circulated the Nine Yang energy, its radiance becoming even more dazzling; in the entire central square, he was like the most radiant sun. "

Knight's Basic Manual!" Duo Duo whispered. Following his unique method of circulation, several spears formed from the Nine Yang energy materialized before him. With a sudden jerk of his hands, the spears ... "Please, spare me..." Hope flickered in Andri's eyes; life returned to his body in that instant. If he had felt fear but also some resentment after being defeated by Duo Duo that night, now he was utterly terrified. Dodo said coldly, "This is your last chance, Andri. I don't understand why you're so foolish. I said that if you don't oppose me, for your mother's sake, I will make you the most powerful new noble in the Giant Tree Elf Empire!" Andri's eyes lit up. He hadn't expected that not only would his life be spared, but Dodo would also offer such a great benefit. Dodo said, "You should know I have such power. As long as you submit to me, I will never go back on my word! I'll give you three days to consider whether to oppose me or become a new noble in the Giant Tree Elf Empire. You decide!" With that, Dodo released his grip, and Andri collapsed to the ground, his white mage's robes stained with mud. He stared blankly at Dodo's back, his hand reaching into his robes to grasp the scroll of death, but then slowly releasing it. The duel was over! The surrounding crowd cheered. Although the result wasn't as deadly as they had imagined, as in previous duels, it was far more exciting than any of them. Furthermore, a powerful elf possessing formidable martial arts skills… This completely overturned previous understanding. The Great Elves truly lived up to their reputation as the most superior bloodline; their martial arts cultivation had reached such a powerful level. This sense of superiority made the onlookers almost regard Duoduo as a god. "Andri! Why didn't you use the Death Scroll!" Hillary ran to Andri's side and asked, displeased.

Andri glanced at Hillary, naturally not telling him what Duo Duo had just said. He simply handed the scroll of death from his arms to Hillary and turned to leave.

Watching Andri's retreating figure, Hillary couldn't help but feel puzzled!

Had Andri been beaten senseless? He

had clearly suffered a crushing defeat, yet he seemed completely unfazed. Judging from his cheerful gait, he seemed like a victor.

Hillary shook his head. He despised Andri from the bottom of his heart. No wonder that person's evaluation of Andri was so terrible!

Suddenly!

Hillary's head moved, his eyes scanning his surroundings with a puzzled look. He inexplicably heard a familiar voice beside him, but he didn't know where that person was.

Hillary listened intently, his eyes filled with contradiction and difficulty.

Finally, his gaze sharpened. He turned and glared fiercely at Duo Duo and the others. He pulled out the death scroll crafted from a single plant leaf… The once bright and sunny sky suddenly darkened, and a sudden gust of wind whipped up the mud from the ground.

The surrounding towering trees trembled violently, their emerald leaves turning a near-black, inky green.

The rock statue of the Goddess of Nature creaked, and several inconspicuous cracks appeared on it.

The spraying water curtain trembled violently for a moment, then stopped spraying altogether, as if the water source had completely dried up in that instant.

A death scroll!

Indeed, a death scroll crafted jointly by the three priests of the Temple of Nature!

Light, water, and wood—these three attributes normally symbolize life, but within this unique magic circle, they become deadly factors.

The so-called death scroll is the instantaneous reversal of the attributes of light, water, and wood, absorbing the life force of all living beings!

And this central plaza, possessing all three elements, was undoubtedly the perfect place to use the death scroll.

The sudden appearance of a strange phenomenon in the square caused everyone to gasp in alarm, their gazes fixed on the eye of the raging storm—Hillary!

At that moment, Hillary unfurled a verdant scroll of death. The scroll slowly disintegrated into ash. The death magic of light, water, and wood was complete, the ash coalescing into a massive, cloud-like shadow. It rapidly enveloped everyone within a vast area centered on Hillary, hovering above her head.

Among those present were several elves skilled in magic. When they saw the verdant scroll in Hillary's hand, they exclaimed in unison: "A scroll of death!"

They couldn't understand. Did this fallen noblewoman have a death wish?

To use such a devastating scroll of death on so many people!

Despite their profound confusion, a strong sense of fear arose within them, for the scroll of death had already been activated; there was no time for them to stand still.

The gale grew increasingly fierce.

The cloud possessed a powerful suction force, enveloping those within it as if they were submerged in a viscous liquid, unable to move an inch, let alone leave the enveloped area.

In particular, within the enveloped area, all magical energy was completely drained, rendering mages utterly useless.

Suction!

A bizarre suction force capable of sucking the soul out of the body.

It was draining the life force of the human body, relentlessly and without warning.

Cries for help!

Curses!

All the sounds converged, creating an unbearable cacophony.

Those fortunate enough to escape the cloud's grasp attempted to rescue them from the outside, but the moment their magic touched the enveloped area, they were instantly sucked in by the powerful suction, utterly powerless to resist.

Chapter 516: A Battle to Fame

Rumble… As the death cloud above Duo Duo and the others exploded, the cloud above Hillary's head also shattered, sending Hillary flying backward as if struck by a powerful punch, blood spurting from her mouth and nose.

In a forest at least a thousand kilometers away from Giant Tree City,

Saintess Mulan was leading hundreds of Nature Archers towards the city. The instant the death cloud exploded over Giant Tree City, Mulan abruptly stopped, her eyes wide with astonishment as she stared in the direction of the city. "

Your Highness, what's wrong?" a leading Nature Archer asked, puzzled.

"The Death Scroll… Black Mist Guard, you immediately return to the temple and notify the priests of all branch temples to thoroughly search their respective temples and see who still possesses the Death Scroll!" Mulan said decisively. The

Black Mist Guard was taken aback by the order, then nodded and left.

Saintess Mulan gazed towards Giant Tree City, her delicate brows furrowing deeply. She knew that the Death Scroll was no ordinary item; it was created by three priests of the main temple of the Nature Temple and then distributed to the branch temples of various empires. When there were operations to exterminate the Night Elves, the branch temples would then distribute it to members of the extermination teams in each country.

Speaking of which, this kind of death scroll hasn't been used for a long time, and its production has ceased. Firstly, it consumes enormous amounts of magic power, and secondly, its destructive power is too great, somewhat incompatible with the self-righteous High Elves. Previously, it was manufactured because the Night Elves were numerous, but after years of extermination, their numbers have dwindled. The High Elves have no need to use such a weapon that would invite criticism from humans.

Saintess Mulan hadn't expected such a destructive weapon to appear in Giant Tree City, and according to her recent senses, the death scroll had already been activated.

She couldn't imagine the disaster this death scroll would cause in such a prosperous place!

She had to find out how this death scroll had bypassed the temple's reporting and appeared among the common people. She would severely punish whoever used the scroll. "

Let's speed things up!" Saintess Mulan whispered, then pulled a crystalline magic wand from her sleeve. Without chanting any incantation, she waved the wand, and she was already flying towards Giant Tree City.

All the natural archers hurriedly chanted incantations, taking flight one after another, following Saintess Mulan towards Giant Tree City… At this moment, the central square of Giant Tree City was already bustling with noise. Everyone rushed towards Hillary, who lay on the ground. If it weren't for Duoduo's intervention, Hillary would probably be in pieces by now.

Duoduo stood before the crowd, like a living god; everything that had just happened had rapidly elevated him from an ordinary person to a god in the eyes of the crowd.

Andri stood beside Duchess Martha. Duchess Martha's magical cultivation was not deep; under the influence of the Death Scroll, she had lost much of her life force, her face pale, her body swaying precariously. If it weren't for Andri's support, she would likely have collapsed to the ground. There were many like her; even Lucy hadn't escaped. If it weren't for Lucy's powerful magical talent, someone like her with no magical cultivation would likely have perished!

Andri looked at Duoduo, a faint sense of joy in his heart. It seemed that not using the Death Scroll earlier was the right thing to do. Anyway, he couldn't kill this powerful guy, and in the end, there probably wouldn't be such a good promise; he would definitely die a horrible death.

Dodo looked at Lucy, whose face was deathly pale and devoid of any color, and felt extremely distressed.

After coldly stopping everyone's attempts at revenge, he slowly approached Hillary.

Dodo was puzzled. If Andrei was fighting so desperately, it could be understandable, but this bastard named Hillary—Dodo didn't even remember him—how could he dare to do such a thing?

The only explanation is that Hillary was instructed by someone else. Who was behind it? Anyone could guess—it was that treacherous Duke Os.

Duo Duo glanced around at the crowd, seeing this as a good opportunity. If Hillary revealed in front of so many people that Duke Os was the mastermind, then everything Duke Os had painstakingly built would easily crumble.

However, Duo Duo wasn't confident at all.

Judging from everything, Duke Os was a master cunning; he would never rashly use a subordinate who was easily betrayed. "

Why did you do this?" Duo Duo coldly stared at Hillary.

Hillary turned away without speaking. He hadn't expected this outcome. When his master ordered him to use the Death Scroll, he claimed that if successful, he would use the current chaos to launch a long-planned coup, and he would be the greatest contributor. Not only him, but even his fallen nobleman would return to the fold of power.

But everything was over… all the beautiful dreams he had envisioned had vanished in an instant.

All of Hillary's previous efforts—like befriending good-for-nothing nobles like Andre, infiltrating high society—were in vain, only hastening his death.

Hillary felt a sudden, sharp pain, as if his heart had been squeezed by a giant hand, causing his body to shudder violently.

He knew he was useless, and the only fate of a useless tool was destruction by its master. The recent sign was the activation of the life contract he had made when he pledged allegiance… Dodo noticed Hillary's abnormality, but the speed from onset to death was far too fast. Before he could react, Hillary's face had turned a deathly gray, and life was truly over.

This was a conspiracy!

Faced with Hillary's death, Dodo's goal was no longer achievable. He could only seize the opportunity of the crowd's heightened emotions to loudly proclaim conspiracy theories, trying to sway people's hearts to some extent.

Someone must be behind Hillary! Good heavens, no wonder he instigated me to duel with Mr. Dodo! And even made me use that death scroll! Damn it, thankfully I didn't want to be that kind of shameless scoundrel and disdain ambushes, otherwise I would have become his accomplice!

At this moment, Andri completely decided to stand on Duo Duo's side. As for her mother's matter, he didn't care too much. Anyway, he knew what her mother had done in the past. The reason she had always been at odds with Duo Duo was simply because she looked down on Duo Duo. Now it seemed that her actions back then were such a mistake!

Chapter 517 The Showdown

Duo Duo looked at Duke Os's hypocritical face and cursed inwardly, "Damn it, isn't a real fight to the death better than anything else? Sigh... It's really tiring to play mind games with this bastard all day long!" "Your

Highness, are you alright?" Duke Os asked with concern.

Lucy's face was pale. Even though the wandering spirits were constantly infusing energy into Lucy, unfortunately, she was not good at the kind of light magic used for healing, so the effect was minimal.

Lucy glanced up at Duke Os and shook her head weakly. She was afraid that if she opened her mouth, she would curse this hypocrite.

"Go back and rest quickly. I'm relieved you're all alright," Duke Os said.

Duo Duo and the others, who were already too lazy to waste words with him, nodded in unison upon hearing this and strode past Duke Os.

Watching their retreating figures, Duke Os's eyes narrowed slightly. He turned to one of his subordinates and said, "Go to the Magic Guild!"

The organizational structures of the Elven Empire and the Human Empire were basically similar. The Magic Guild Duke Os mentioned was similar to the military headquarters of the Human Empire.

The Elven Empire was primarily focused on magic. Although it had some soldiers who charged into battle, they were mostly slaves or convicted civilians; the main force was the Magic Guild.

The Magic Guild's headquarters was located on the outskirts of Giant Tree City, with a vast area suitable for various magical training exercises.

A while later, in an inconspicuous room within the Magic Guild, Duke Os sat at the head of the table, with three people sitting on either side of him.

These three were the guild's commander and two deputy commanders, considered Duke Os's close associates and a solid force.

Duke Os recounted in a low voice the events that had just occurred in the Giant Tree City square. The three captains frowned deeply.

Their abilities, befitting their high positions, were unquestionable, and they understood Duke Os's meaning.

After a long silence, Captain Soth said, "Shouldn't we change our plan?

Previously, their plan was to use the night elf Booker to force the king to abdicate through Purgatory. This way, Duke Os could not only ascend the throne but also feign being a good guy.

But now, it seems that Duo Duo's appearance could be a variable!

There's a saying, 'The longer the night, the more dreams arise,' and they were worried that their otherwise excellent plan would be ruined by Duo Duo's arrival.

'Yes, let's change the plan! I think we should just launch a coup!' one of the vice-captains said.

Duke Os pondered for a moment, then shook his head. He said, 'The plan cannot be changed. If we rashly launch a coup, we'll give the other two empires an opportunity! At that time, our foundation will not be stable, and we won't be able to fight against the other empires. We need to peacefully obtain the throne; only then can we best realize our future plans for hegemony!'" Then, Duke Os continued, "Get ready, I'll be going to the palace again tonight to tell that Booker to intensify his efforts! Now that Lucy is back, I don't believe that old man will just stand by and watch his precious daughter suffer in hell like his son. If he really doesn't cooperate, then we'll launch a coup.

What about how we deal with that Dodo? I have a bad feeling about it," Commander Soth said.

Duke Os thought for a moment and said, "Indeed, I'm a little uneasy, especially since what happened in the central square today actually benefited him greatly. Those nobles are starting to worship him, worship him, you know? This is a terrible thing. We can't allow this to continue!

So what should we do?

Fortunately, there aren't many high-ranking nobles present. Those lower-ranking nobles are all opportunists, no need to worry! Since he's gained the favor of those lower-ranking nobles, let's let him gain the dislike of the high-ranking nobles! We absolutely cannot let him develop within the noble circles!" Duke Os said coldly.

Then, Duke Os asked, "Commander Soth, are there any sons of the four noble families currently serving in the magic guild?" "

Of course," replied Commander Soth, "as you know, their current term of service doesn't end until next month."

A sinister smile appeared on Duke Os's face. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Commander Soth, Her Highness the Princess's return is such a momentous occasion, aren't you planning to hold a banquet to celebrate?"

Everyone present was a shrewd and calculating individual; none of them were fools. Hearing Duke Os's words and recalling his earlier remarks, Soth immediately understood and laughed heartily, "Yes, then how about tonight? Tonight at my residence, I'll host a lavish banquet to celebrate our Princess's return… Don't forget to bring those well-trained noble sons, hmm… I've heard that the sons of the four great families are all quite powerful in magic?" Duke Os said with a smile.

Then, everyone burst into laughter… Tonight might be a night that gives Duo Duo a headache.

After parting ways with Duke Os in the City of Giant Trees, Duoduo did not immediately return to Duke Os's mansion.

For some reason, he always felt uneasy. The events in the central square indicated that Duke Os had begun to act. Although he was starting to plot in the shadows, he had at least gained the upper hand. If things continued like this, it wouldn't be good for him.

Just as they were about to reach Duke Os's residence, Duo Duo suddenly said, "Let's go to the palace!"

Lucy and the others looked at Duo Duo in surprise, wondering what he had thought of this time.

"It's time to confront your father, you bastard! We can't always be passive!" Duo Duo said.

Lucy's face immediately lit up with joy. If Duo Duo hadn't been telling her to be patient, she probably would have already gone to the palace to explain everything to her father. "Okay, okay!" Lucy said happily, turning and walking towards the palace first.

Chapter 518: The War in the Dark Duo Duo

nodded, the chastity ring on his finger emitting a faint black mist. In that instant, Da Nian... Zhang had already set up a powerful soundproof barrier for him in this palace, absorbing the death energy of Da Nian. Zhang could easily create such a barrier.

"Father, brother is alright..." Lucy said. "What?" The king stood up and exclaimed in surprise, looking at Lucy in disbelief.

Lucy told His Majesty everything, but she didn't mention that Yana was also a Night Elf. After all, they didn't know their father's attitude yet, and this wasn't something to rush into. The most urgent task was to deal with Duke Os.

The king stared at Lucy, then turned to look at Duoduo. He couldn't believe that the matter that had been causing him so much anxiety and worry had been completely resolved by this young man. It was like a dream.

Previously, because the prince had been framed, even though the king had firmly maintained his stance and hadn't compromised with Duke Os, he hadn't taken any action against Duke Os because he was afraid of causing serious harm. He could only watch helplessly as Duke Os developed his power.

Now, all the crises had been completely resolved, and the king felt as if he had suddenly become many years younger, his body filled with strength again.

It was time to fight back!

However, because of this period of leniency, Duke Os's power must have grown considerably. Eliminating him seemed not so simple.

However, the king was full of fighting spirit!

He lived in a peaceful era, and there had never been any wars during his reign. This allowed people to only see his benevolent and kind side, while overlooking his political acumen.

His weakness was his two children, whose lives were threatened. He was like a lion with its teeth in shackles.

But now, all danger was gone, and he could vent his long-suppressed anger and punish that wicked fellow!

When Duo Duo and the others left the palace, they outwardly appeared worried, but this was merely a facade for Duke Os's spies.

Inwardly, they were overjoyed and inexplicably excited.

This was a war, a war hidden in the shadows, perhaps not so honorable, but a war to the death. What was honor? To Duo Duo, it was nothing but empty words.

If Duke Os's power wasn't so deeply entrenched, he would have definitely used any means necessary to kill that despicable bastard first. Even though the king had repeatedly warned him not to act rashly. You must know, even the king couldn't fully fathom Duke Os's true magical abilities.

As they approached Duke Os's residence, two armed winged carriages appeared in the distance, parked at the gate. "Hmm? The carriages of the Royal Magic Guild," Lucy exclaimed. "

What Royal Magic Guild?" Dodo asked, startled. "

It's something similar to a human army," Lucy replied.

Dodo nodded, pondering to himself. The incident in the central square proved that Duke Os had begun making underhanded moves. The guild's leader had come knocking as soon as the incident ended. Had Duke Os taken control of the guild? What was this guy up to? Even if he had, they were still residing in his residence. How could he be so blatant?

Dodo, taking a wait-and-see approach, led Lucy and the others directly into Duke Os's residence.

After staying for so many days, the guards already recognized them. Naturally, no one dared to stop them. The head guard at the gate, seeing Dodo arrive, hurried to the reception hall to inform Duke Os.

As soon as Duoduo stepped through the gate, she heard Duke Os's hearty laughter.

Then, Duke Os and a lean, middle-aged elf man, a head taller than Duoduo, stood at the entrance to the reception hall. "Your Highness

, the Magic Guild Master, Soth, greets you. You've finally returned!" Soth, the Magic Guild Master, quickly approached and bowed respectfully. "

Master Soth, it's been a long time. How have you been?" Lucy smiled, a hint of dislike in her eyes. This naive girl now felt a sense of aversion towards anyone who was on good terms with Duke Os. "

Master Soth has come to invite us to his banquet," Duke Os said with a smile.

Master Soth said, "Yes, Your Highness. I heard you were back and rushed back. Please do me the honor of attending."

Lucy turned to look at Duoduo, who nodded slightly. No matter what, she couldn't lose face, especially since she really enjoyed the lavish atmosphere of banquets. "

Thank you, Commander Soth. I think I'll have time to attend," Lucy said with a smile.

Chapter 519: The Feast

at Hongmen. Soth was a lecherous man who always took pleasure in hunting beautiful women. His mansion was filled with beauties of various races, but he had never seen a human beauty as stunning as Youhun.

Duke Os, seeing Soth's dazed expression, cursed him inwardly for being so inconsiderate. He stepped forward with a smile and asked, "Commander Soth, are all the guests at the banquet here?"

Commander Soth snapped out of his daze, swallowed hard, and said, "They're all here. We're just waiting for Her Highness the Princess's arrival."

He then gestured for Duoduo and the others to enter the banquet hall.

The banquet hall was already bustling with activity, filled with music, clinking glasses, and laughter.

Unlike the banquet at Duke Os's house, this banquet was attended by a younger group of magical elites from the empire. Both men and women radiated youthful energy, their faces displaying self-satisfied pride.

Andri was among the invited guests.

However, among these young guests, Andri was clearly unpopular.

Those with pure noble blood, such as the scions of the four great noble families, already disliked this guy who had risen to power through his mother's connections. Upon hearing the news of Andri

's defeat in the duel, their dislike for him only intensified. In their eyes, a duel should always end in death; Andri's survival meant he was a complete coward.

Andri was visibly neglected, standing forlornly in a corner, holding his wine glass.

In contrast, his mother, Duchess Martha, was the star of the banquet as always. Her charm surpassed even that of the noble ladies, fluttering among the crowd like a butterfly.

However, compared to her usual allure, she appeared noticeably more reserved today.

The arrival of Duoduo and the others brought the banquet to its first climax. Among the people present, there were also those who had witnessed what happened in the central square that morning, and just now, these people were talking about Duoduo's impressive performance.

Of course. These somewhat exaggerated descriptions naturally displeased the arrogant noble elites. Some of these young men had once been admirers of Lucy, and if Lucy hadn't fled the Giant Tree Elf Empire, one of them might very well have become the prince consort of the Giant Tree Elf Empire, Lucy's husband.

After Soth made some perfunctory remarks, the banquet continued, and Dodo and the others entered the banquet hall to receive toasts from everyone. Lucy introduced them to each other.

Lucy was quite familiar with the young men; after all, they were about the same age and had been playmates since childhood.

This scene was much more comfortable for Lucy than the banquet at Duke Os's mansion, at least there were many familiar faces.

Soon, Lucy was surrounded by some noble girls, chattering incessantly, while Dodo could only wander around the banquet hall like a lost soul, receiving greetings from the nobles and responding politely.

As for the old carpenter, from the moment he entered the banquet hall, he stood like a javelin at the entrance, his face cold, his eyes never leaving his master—Dodo.

Since Dodo entered the banquet hall, Duchess Martha's eyes hadn't left him. Now, finally free from the entanglement of a middle-aged nobleman, she quickly approached him. "

Mr. Dodo, you've arrived..." Duchess Martha looked at Dodo with alluring eyes.

Dodo chuckled and moved closer to Duchess Martha. He said, "Have you forgotten what to call me?"

Duchess Martha blushed, glanced around, and, taking advantage of the surrounding noise, whispered, "Master..." Youhun looked at Duchess Martha in surprise, then turned to look at Dodo. She couldn't understand how Dodo had managed to take this seemingly high-status woman as his slave in just a few days.

It seemed like she hadn't been separated from Dodo much... Dodo winked at Youhun, then turned to Duchess Martha, saying magnanimously, "Alright, I'll be lenient with you. From now on, in public, you're allowed not to call me master. But when we're alone, there will be punishment!"

Dodo emphasized the word "punishment," his eyes clearly taking in Duchess Martha's full, voluptuous breasts beneath her evening gown.

Under Dodo's provocative words and unrestrained gaze, Duchess Martha trembled, those passionate scenes flashing through her mind, making her body feel weak.

Last night, Duchess Martha had experienced something unprecedented with Alice and Maria.

In just one night, she was captivated by that bold, licentious lifestyle. How wonderful it would be to be part of such a group—a strong, excellent man and women capable of such skill! If

Duchess Martha had submitted to Dodo for the sake of Andrei's life, then after last night, and witnessing Dodo's display of power this morning, her heart had completely surrendered.

Only such an excellent man deserved to possess her completely, Duchess Martha's usual shrewdness told her. Following this man, she would get everything she wanted—provided, of course, that she could completely please him.

She was somewhat confident about this... With Duchess Martha by her side, Duo Duo felt even more glorious. Everyone knew that although Duchess Martha was renowned for her beauty, she had extremely high standards. Men always fawned over her, but she had never taken the initiative to fawn over a man like she did today.

Commander Soth watched Duo Duo and Duchess Martha from afar, his eyes flashing with resentment.

Just a short while ago, Duchess Martha had rejected him and was cold in her attitude, clearly indicating that she had no intention of continuing their relationship.

Commander Soth had been somewhat puzzled before, but now he finally understood the crux of the matter.

The 520th paragraph suggests that

Duke Os and Commander Soth, these ambitious fellows, had a thorough understanding of human nature and were adept at exploiting others' weaknesses.

Hillary was one such example, and Rogge was no different from Hillary—a young man frustrated and without any opportunities among the nobility, almost the same as, or even worse than, a fallen noble like Hillary, at least Hillary didn't suffer the scorn of her clan.

Whenever a noble's son joined the magic guild, Commander Soth would carefully observe these young men, searching for those who could serve him. Rogue was chosen under such circumstances and recruited as one of Soth's confidants.

Soth promised Rogue a position within the magic guild—not just simple service, but becoming an officer. This opportunity was clearly far better than being buried in obscurity within his family, never able to rise to prominence.

Rogue knew that Commander Soth had many confidants like him; even among confidants, competition was fierce. He was eager to seize any opportunity to prove himself and gain the best treatment.

Tonight was a rare chance for him.

Rogue was quite ambitious. Due to his circumstances, he knew that to succeed, he had to work 100% effort. Therefore, he practiced magic far more diligently than anyone else. Although he didn't inherit the handsome features of the men in his family, his magical talent was considerable, even surpassing that of his peers.

With his considerable magical talent and relentless hard work, Rogue's achievements were already among the best of the young. However, his low-key nature kept this a secret. He was simply waiting for an opportunity to shine, to make a name for himself and completely change how others perceived him.

When Soth's gaze fell upon Rogue, Rogue nodded knowingly and said loudly, "Commander Soth, may I make a request?"

Soth looked at Rogue with feigned concern and asked, "What request? Rogue, this is a banquet, you wouldn't ask something unrelated to the event, would you?" "

Commander Soth, as a member of the magic guild, Rogue, like you, reveres heroes! We've all heard of Mr. Dodo's deeds, but we don't know if there's any exaggeration involved, you know. Many people in the capital like to embellish when spreading rumors..." Rogue said loudly. "

Rogue. What exactly are you trying to say?" Commander Soth frowned.

Roger said, "Commander Soth, please forgive me, but we young people all have our own admirers. For example, I admire my eldest cousin, Earl Lewis, who is a hero in my eyes. But now you've proposed Mr. Toto as a hero, and I'd like to know if Mr. Toto truly deserves our admiration. Is he worthy of replacing our hero?" Lewis, whom Roger mentioned, was the heir apparent to the Newman family, a tall, handsome, and dignified young man.

When he heard Roger elevate him to such a high position in front of so many people, he couldn't help but smugly smile. Looking at Roger, he suddenly didn't find his cousin so ugly anymore.

Toto secretly sneered. It seems this ugly elf was something Soth had already arranged, damn it. They really went to great lengths.

Roger's words had a strong persuasive power, and the smug Lewis began to look at Toto, wondering if he should let himself, the true hero, show off.

There can only be one hero!

Lewis began to get restless. He didn't believe the rumors. To be honest, he had long wanted to compete with Toto, but he was just being polite to Princess Lucy.

Roger sized up his good-for-nothing cousin's expression, a cold smile playing on his lips, but outwardly remained calm as he said, "Commander Soth, today is a joyous occasion. May I suggest something to liven things up? I'd like to have a gentlemanly conversation with Mr. Toto. To be honest, I find the rumors about a Great Elf being able to practice martial arts quite hard to believe. Please grant my request."

Roger's words intensified the murmurs. Indeed, weren't Great Elves only supposed to practice magic?

Rumors said that Toto defeated Andri using martial arts—was that even possible?

They were now filled with curiosity and began quietly agreeing with Roger's suggestion. After all, it wasn't their turn to compete; if a competition did start, at least it would satisfy their curiosity. "

Yes, Mr. Toto, please demonstrate for us! I think Princess Lucy won't object, will she?" Lewis said with a loud laugh.

Although Toto and Roger held different positions, they both considered Lewis equally incompetent!

Now that he's been thrust into the limelight, if he doesn't perform, he'll have no way to back down. His previous humility might have won him some favor, but if he's still humble now, it'll be excessive and he'll be seen as a coward.

Duo Duo gave Rogge a cold look, cursing inwardly, "Damn it, this little panda looks like a cunning strategist, and he's really wicked."

Duo Duo laughed and said, "Since everyone wants to see my abilities, then, to liven things up, I'll make a fool of myself... um... a gentleman's contest!"

"Mr. Rogge, are you the one who wants to compete with me?" Duo Duo asked, looking at Rogge.

Chapter 521

: The Gentlemen's Contest. Toto laughed, "What I mean is, let's not have such a fierce battle, lest it affect those around us. How about this: you use what you think is your strongest magic to attack me, and see if I can withstand it. Then, I will also use my best moves to attack you, and you can defend against them and see if you can withstand them. This way, we will quickly decide the winner, without hurting our feelings or delaying this wonderful banquet."

Lewis thought about it and found this method feasible and quite interesting. Most importantly, he could maintain his noble image while attacking. "

Alright, Mr. Toto, then please attack me first!" Lewis said loudly.

Toto laughed, "Please go first, there's no need to be polite."

Lewis laughed heartily and said, "Then I won't be polite, Mr. Toto. I must remind you first that my specialty is earth magic, and among all types of magic, earth magic is the most offensive."

That one sentence immediately raised Duo Duo's opinion of Lewis to a new level. Duo Duo knew he was far less upright than Lewis.

From this perspective, Lewis was a friend worth having, much better than a coward like Andrei. Yes, this was the time to use someone capable, and Duo Duo had already decided to befriend Lewis. "

Thank you, Earl Lewis, I have the utmost respect for your integrity! It is my honor to compete with you!" Duo Duo said. "

Then let's begin. Finish the competition quickly, and I'll drink with you!" Lewis said.

Duo Duo nodded vigorously, his eyes becoming serious, and he rapidly circulated his Nine Yang Energy. A stunning red aura emanated from his body. Those

who had never seen Duo Duo fight before were now witnessing something extraordinary. They knew the rumors were true; the Great Elves could indeed cultivate martial arts. Those who

had seen Duo Duo fight considered this a chance to relive the experience; the image of Duo Duo's impressive display of power in the central square that morning remained unforgettable in their minds.

Lewis chanted the incantation rapidly, his hands moving rhythmically, clearly demonstrating the considerable practice he had put into these movements. At least among the mages Dodo had encountered, none possessed Lewis's graceful movements.

Moments later, the space not far above Lewis's head visibly distorted, tiny purple currents crackling and flashing within the distortion.

The spatial distortion intensified, gradually forming a vortex-like black hole.

The intense magical fluctuations generated a powerful pressure that pressed down on Dodo. Dodo held his breath, frantically circulating his Nine Yang Energy. A dazzling, fiery red Nine Yang Energy formed a protective shield around Dodo. "

Meteorites from outer space!" Lewis roared, his hands slamming upwards. A

rumbling sound echoed from the black hole, the rotation intensifying, the purple lightning becoming even denser. Moments later, countless meteorites appeared within the black hole, raining down on Dodo like a storm.

Earth magic is extremely aggressive and has a wide attack range, something Lewis couldn't control. However, the nobles in the arena were full of powerful magicians. The instant Lewis used the advanced magic, Celestial Meteor, several magicians simultaneously set up a huge light shield, enveloping Dodo and Lewis within it to prevent the powerful meteors from injuring others or destroying the arena.

Meteors rained down on Dodo like a storm.

This was Dodo's first time fighting an earth mage. He had to admit that earth mages truly lived up to their reputation as having the strongest attack power. Damn, a lack of magical knowledge is a real problem. If he had known this basic fact, he would never have suggested such a stupid fighting method.

The meteors struck Dodo's Nine Yang Energy shield, each impact creating a burst of red light. Initially, all the meteors were shattered by the Nine Yang Energy, but gradually, Dodo felt the strain, his body trembling slightly. But with the die already cast, he could only frantically circulate the Nine Yang Energy to strengthen the shield. Damn it

!

When will this ever end?!

Duo Duo cried out inwardly, the protective shield of the Nine Suns energy was no longer enough to shatter the meteorites, only deflecting them to the side. In no time, a large number of meteorites had piled up around Duo Duo. Duo Duo

was in bad shape, and Lewis wasn't feeling much better. What young man, full of youthful vigor, wouldn't be competitive?

(Chapter 522: I'll fight to the end !

) A muffled, explosive sound rang out, and the Nine Suns energy orb between Duo Duo's hands instantly transformed into a knight's lance, its proportions perfectly matching those of a standard knight's lance during a charge.

Go! Duo Duo's hands spun violently, and the knight's lance formed from the Nine Suns energy spun rapidly, charging towards the petrified Lewis.

Crash!

When the lance struck Lewis's body, the outer layer of rock began to shatter and fall away.

But the lance continued to spin rapidly, showing no sign of disappearing, like a drill piercing through the thick rock bit by bit.

Clearly, Duoduo used a clever trick in his attack, employing the same principle as the drill from his previous life. Now, it seemed far more effective than he had imagined; even controlling the Nine Yang energy felt effortless.

Then, something unexpected happened.

To the magic experts, Lewis's petrification was flawless; only an opponent far stronger than Lewis could easily shatter it. However, the strength Duoduo displayed when resisting Lewis's meteor spell, while perhaps superior, wasn't significantly greater.

Therefore, they estimated that even if Duoduo shattered the petrification, it would still take some time.

Unfortunately, nothing seems impossible for Duoduo. Lewis's petrification was utterly insignificant against the rapidly spinning Nine Yang Energy Drill. The spear formed from Nine Yang Energy quickly pierced deep into Lewis's heart. Before long, the petrified rock at Lewis's heart had completely shattered and fallen away. In the aura of Nine Yang Energy, Lewis's robe could be clearly seen in the deep hole in the rock.

One can imagine that if the spear of Nine Yang Energy hadn't stopped, Lewis's fate would have been certain death! Just

as everyone gasped in alarm, worried that Duoduo couldn't control the energy, Duoduo let out a low roar, his hands suddenly trembling. The spear of Nine Yang Energy abruptly stopped and quickly retreated, transforming into a blur of light between Duoduo's hands and disappearing instantly.

A complete victory!

Indeed, Duoduo ultimately won this contest perfectly!

The banquet hall erupted in thunderous applause.

Duoduo's perfect victory not only demonstrated his extraordinary strength but also showcased his extremely gentlemanly and friendly demeanor.

Members of the Newman family were also present. When they saw Duo Duo's friendly demeanor towards Lewis, they secretly praised Duo Duo and felt a sense of pride.

Lucy witnessed all this and couldn't help but wonder, was this still the same Duo Duo from the Half-Step Duo Restaurant?

Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that Duo Duo had changed since leaving the Half-Step Duo Restaurant. He was no longer the rude, fat rogue he used to be, but a wise and intelligent man. Lucy couldn't imagine how many days she could have survived in her current situation without Duo Duo.

Looking at Duo Duo smiling and gesturing to everyone, Lucy's eyes shone brightly.

Youhun's feelings were similar to Lucy's, only not as intense. After all, she hadn't personally witnessed Duo Duo's behavior at the Half-Step Duo Restaurant. Now, she only felt incredibly gratified; her man was definitely an outstanding and excellent man. For

a woman, isn't having such a man the greatest happiness?

Lewis, now petrified, was gone. His handsome face flushed slightly; defeat was a bitter pill to swallow.

However, he didn't lose his composure. In fact, his affection for Duoduo was growing stronger. They had only just met, yet he felt as if he had finally found a kindred spirit. Moreover, he knew better than anyone that he had just been on the verge of death; if Duoduo had harbored even the slightest ill will, he could easily have kept him bedridden for a year or two—a condition even the best light magic couldn't cure. "

Mr. Duoduo, you are strong. I admit defeat! You are a true hero!" Lewis strode towards Duoduo and said sincerely.

Duoduo bowed gracefully and said, "Earl Lewis, please don't say that. We were just sparring. If we were really on the battlefield, I might not be able to match you."

"Haha, it's truly a pleasure to meet you! No, I must have a few drinks with you today!" Lewis laughed heartily. Duoduo smiled and said

, "I'll keep you company to the end, until we're both drunk! Haha!

" Suddenly, Zhang asked in Duo Duo's mind with great confusion: "Kid, what's wrong with you? Damn it, I've been waiting for you to beg me to teach you something, how come you handled it so well?"

Duo Duo chuckled: "I'm a genius, a genius, you know? You old lecher!" As he spoke, Duo Duo thought to himself, should he tell this old lecher that he possessed knowledge from his past life? Had he just been immersed in those medieval-themed TV shows and movies he'd watched in his past life? That was definitely not something he could say.

That's right!

Duo Duo hadn't expected that his past life's knowledge could be so helpful, and at such a crucial moment, he began to feel the need to find some time to quietly reflect on some of his past life's knowledge and see what else he could use now.

Roger stood not far from Soth, thinking his plan had been successful, but he hadn't expected Duo Duo to propose such a strange competition method.

In Roger's imagination, a competition between two people would inevitably cause some damage, and if damage occurred, the end wouldn't be so simple.

What could he do now?

Chapter 523 A Double Meaning Duo Duo

stared at Rogge, a cold smile playing on his lips. Zhang had just told him that this guy's magic was far stronger than Lewis's.

Duo Duo thought to himself, "It's finally here. Damn it, if I give you any more face, I'll lose all face!"

"Rogge, do you really want to challenge me?" Duo Duo's voice suddenly rose, loud enough for everyone to hear.

The previously joyous banquet fell silent. Everyone looked at Rogge in surprise, wondering what had just happened between him and Duo Duo.

Rogge clearly hadn't expected Duo Duo's sudden action. He chuckled and said, "Mr. Duo Duo, if you would do me the honor..." In his imagination, Duo Duo had just acted extremely gentlemanly and would certainly not refuse such a challenge. No gentleman would refuse... But he didn't know what kind of person Duo Duo was!

When had this guy ever played by the rules?

Just like his sudden raising of his voice, Duo Duo had no intention of making this despicable fellow look bad!

Dodo burst into laughter, a laugh that left everyone bewildered, their ears perked up, waiting for his next words. "

I'm sorry, I won't accept your invitation." Dodo's previously radiant expression suddenly turned cold, his gaze fixed on Roger, his eyes filled with disdain.

Roger's face flushed instantly. He hadn't expected Dodo's drastically different attitude. How could a gentleman, having just won a contest, treat someone who had just invited him to a competition like this? His

already low self-esteem was now crushed to rock bottom by Dodo, and flames of anger flickered in Roger's eyes.

"What? Royal Guard Roger, I won't accept your invitation. Do you feel embarrassed?" Dodo said loudly.

Then, Dodo sneered repeatedly, saying, "You know what? I'm not giving you face!"

This was blatant mockery, and Roger couldn't bear it any longer.

He said coldly, "Mr. Dodo, are you afraid?"

Dodo smiled and said, "Do you know what an invitation is? An invitation is between people of equal status, understand? What I mean is..." "Your rank is very low, just a bodyguard of Commander Soth. Do you think you're qualified to invite me to a duel? All you can do is challenge me! But unfortunately, I never accept challenges from people whose rank is too far below mine!"

Rogge's body trembled, his ugly face turning pale and then red. Rank...rank...Commander Soth hadn't expected Rogge to have such courage, but this behavior was clearly what he wanted to see. Seeing this, he immediately strode over to Duo Duo and said with a smile, "Mr. Duo Duo, actually, I didn't introduce myself properly at the beginning. Due to Rogge's outstanding performance, our magic guild's meeting has already decided to appoint him as the commander of the guard, but the appointment hasn't been officially issued yet." Duo Duo

almost burst out laughing. Damn, this is too obvious!

Soth really couldn't resist!

After hesitating for a moment, Duo Duo simply shifted his gaze to Soth and sneered, "So, Commander Soth thinks the so-called commander of the guard is about the same rank as me, is that it?"

Lucy, who had been surrounded by the noblewomen, kept a close eye on Duo Duo's situation. Now, she broke free from their encirclement and walked to Duo Duo's side, standing shoulder to shoulder with him. She said in a low voice, "Commander Soth, do you think my husband is only of the same rank as your bodyguard commander? Huh? You seem to have forgotten your own place?"

"Damn!

The princess's husband is only on par with the captain of the Soth Guard?

Does Soth think he's the captain of a magic guild? Or what?

This is a huge accusation, and even though Captain Soth secretly wished he could one day accept it with a clear conscience, he didn't have the guts right now. He hadn't expected Lucy to dare tell everyone that a man she hadn't even married was already her husband! '

Your Highness, I...I didn't mean that...' Captain Soth suppressed his resentment and bowed."

Lucy sneered, saying, "You might have that intention, but it's just wishful thinking!"

This was a double entendre, and Duo Duo inwardly cursed. This naive little girl couldn't hold back after all.

To change the subject and prevent Captain Soth from pondering the meaning behind Lucy's words, Duo Duo suddenly said, "Rogge's Guard, oh, shouldn't I call him Captain Rogge's Guard now?" "First, congratulations on your promotion, and then I regret to inform you that you are still not qualified to challenge me... However, since you are so eager to demonstrate your talent, it would be too much of a waste for me to disappoint you."

When Rogge first heard Soth's words, his joy was indescribable. Now, hearing Dodo's words, he was even more ecstatic. Had this guy decided to accept his challenge?

Dodo changed the subject, saying, "Then, I'll have my servant spar with you..." Ugh!

What kind of talk is that?

Dodo was clearly implying that Rogge's status was only about the same as his servant's.

Rogge was, after all, a member of the four noble families of the Giant Tree Elf Empire. This was practically an insult; how could he possibly bear it?

Dodo, however, gave him no chance. Dodo's intention with this guy, whom he had absolutely no affection for, was to humiliate him thoroughly.

Dodo's gaze fell on the old carpenter.

Chapter 524: A Bloody Battlefield

The old carpenter paid no heed to Rogge's astonished gaze. As a soul puppet, his only consciousness was to carry out his master's orders; this man before him had to die!

Roar!

A fierce roar, like the clang of metal on stone, even with the protective shield, made everyone's eardrums buzz.

Everyone looked at the old carpenter in astonishment, then at Duo Duo. No one had expected Duo Duo to have such a powerful servant.

Those with profound magical power could also see that the old carpenter's strength was even above Duo Duo's. Those who knew this began to feel sorry for Rogge; they had already foreseen Rogge's fate.

Duke Os and Captain Soth stood side by side, their astonishment no less than anyone else's. "

I never expected this guy to have such a powerful servant!" Captain Soth muttered softly. "

Yes, his strength is even slightly greater than his own." Duke Os said, then smiled and said, "Fortunately, we discovered it now. If we had overlooked this step in the future, it would have been very troublesome!"

Soth smiled but didn't speak. He suddenly felt that his previously confident plan was becoming increasingly uncertain.

Unlike Duo Duo, the old carpenter possessed genuine battle aura. The golden light of his battle aura illuminated the entire magical shield, and its powerful aura caused the shield to creak.

Rogue dared not be careless and frantically absorbed the surrounding magic power. An expert's skill is immediately apparent. When he released a bolt of lightning as thick as a bowl at the old carpenter in a very short time, everyone could see that Rogue's magical cultivation was far superior to Lewis's.

Compared to Duo Duo, the old carpenter was not only incredibly strong but also possessed rich combat skills, something Duo Duo, who only knew the basic knight's manual, could not match.

Moreover, when a soul puppet executes its master's orders, it chooses the most direct and effective method!

If he possessed consciousness, someone of the old carpenter's status might have maintained a certain air of elders and the demeanor of a master, but now he wouldn't concern himself with such empty formalities.

He stared at Rogge, and as the lightning bolt, as thick as a bowl, struck him, he suddenly threw a punch. The space in front of his fist twisted violently, creating a black hole as tall as a person.

The old carpenter quickly took a step forward, his body disappearing into the black hole. The lightning bolt lost its target and struck the magical protective shield fiercely.

In an instant!

It really was just an instant!

The old carpenter had actually appeared in space, and his position was exactly next to Rogge. Holy

crap! That's incredible

! The old carpenter shattered the void with his battle aura! Everyone gasped in astonishment; they hadn't expected a martial arts master to be able to shatter the void like that, achieving a level of ability a spatial mage could possess. Ah! A scream rang out as blood rained down! The noblewomen present let out a series of screams; the scene was simply too bloody. In the old carpenter's overwhelmingly powerful punch, Rogge, still dazed and stunned, had no chance to dodge. His frail body was brutally shattered into pieces. He thought his magic was strong, but he had encountered a soul puppet that was abnormally powerful and utterly unscrupulous. Only the most foolish martial arts practitioner would fight a mage from a distance. And only the most foolish mage would be stupid enough to fight a martial arts practitioner in close combat. In this respect, whether he was foolish or not should not be judged on the death of Rogge, because he had no choice! No mage could have predicted that a master of martial arts could shatter the void and possess abilities almost equivalent to a spatial mage. Others may know now, gaining more experience in the future, but for Rogge, knowing meant death! Thud... Rogge's severed limbs fell to the ground. The scene was eerily quiet. The sound of the limbs hitting the ground was jarring, as if each one struck the hearts of everyone present. Too bloody! Too cruel! Such a scene had never been seen in the Elven Empire. The self-proclaimed elegant elven nobles couldn't help but gag, and several noble girls simply vomited. The old carpenter remained expressionless, as if he had nothing to do with the whole thing and not only wasn't the culprit, but he turned and nodded to Duo Duo. Duo Duo looked at the old carpenter and the blood and gore scattered on the ground, feeling a lingering fear. Damn, just thinking about how he dealt with the old carpenter at the circus tent made him shudder. Suddenly, Zhang's triumphant voice entered Duo Duo's mind: "How about it, kid? Isn't my soul puppet amazing?" Duo Duo replied: "Amazing! Incredibly amazing! If I'd known it was this powerful, I definitely wouldn't have ambushed them. Damn, I'm so scared!" Zhang laughed wildly: "Did I hear that right? You actually feel scared?" Then, Zhang added: "No need to be afraid. We're the ultimate victors anyway!" Besides, if he weren't a soul puppet, he would never be able to use such power. When a person uses their own energy, they can only reach their strongest state if they are completely focused. But obviously, no one can truly be completely focused. Only a soul puppet like him, who only knows how to carry out his master's orders, can do that!

Duo Duo thought for a moment, then couldn't help but smile bitterly. This old lecher knew a lot about crooked ways, but he also knew a lot about proper things.

Duo Duo looked down at the chastity ring on her finger; obtaining this thing was probably the greatest luck she could have.

At this moment, the nobles had already removed their magical protective shields. The old carpenter walked to Duo Duo's side and stood solemnly, the heavy smell of blood emanating from him causing Duo Duo to frown.

Chapter 525 Promotion and Nobility

The Great Tree Emperor waved his hand and said: "Don't be so polite, everyone, continue the banquet. If my presence prevents you from enjoying yourselves, then I would be very rude."

The Great Tree Emperor always gave people the impression of being kind and approachable. Rather than a majestic king, he was more like a benevolent elder.

Many of the old nobles present were the king's playmates in his youth, while the young nobles were Lucy's playmates. They had often been in and out of the palace as children and frequently saw the king, so they all smiled knowingly when they heard the king say this.

The Great Tree Emperor waved his hand, took a cup of fruit wine from a waiter's tray, raised it, and said, "My subjects, let us drink to this wonderful evening!" He then downed the entire cup of fruit wine.

Since the prince's matter had been resolved, the king was in high spirits, seemingly a different person, radiant with joy.

Everyone raised their glasses and drank heartily, the atmosphere immediately relaxed, and whispers began to circulate.

The Great Tree Emperor said, "Commander Soth, the banquet was very well organized."

Commander Soth hurriedly replied, "As long as Princess Lucy enjoys herself and is satisfied, I am content."

The usually understanding Lucy suddenly became capricious. She frowned, pouted, and hugged the Great Tree Emperor's arm, saying, "Father, I am not satisfied at all."

This made Commander Soth extremely embarrassed, forcing a dry laugh, unsure how to respond. The Great Tree Emperor looked at Lucy and asked with a smile, "What is it that you are not satisfied with?" "Tell your father, and he will personally host a banquet for you in the palace to your satisfaction,"

Lucy said coquettishly. "What's the point of a banquet? They always bully Dodo, this one challenges me, that one challenges me! It's more like a martial arts arena than a banquet!"

The Great Tree Emperor frowned and asked, "Is that so?"

Captain Soth hurriedly smiled apologetically and said, "Mr. Dodo displayed his prowess in the central square this morning. The young people are a bit naive and all want to test their skills against the hero. They meant no harm. Moreover, just now, Mr. Dodo's servant killed Rogue of the Newman family on the spot. "

Suddenly, Captain Soth felt this was a good opportunity to make a fuss. He had just been wondering where to bring this up, and now Lucy had done him a favor. "

Your Majesty," Captain Soth said, "the laws of our Great Tree Elf Empire clearly state that it is a capital offense for a commoner to harm a noble! And Mr. Dodo's servant just killed one of our nobles in full view of everyone!"

Lucy said, "Commander Soth, you just saw it yourself. It was Rogge who challenged him. Challengers must be prepared to die. Don't you know that?"

Commander Soth replied, "Your Highness, Rogge is dead, and it was a commoner who killed him! That's an undeniable fact.

So why didn't you stop him at the beginning?" Lucy said coldly.

Commander Soth was speechless for a moment. After hesitating, he argued, "I thought that when Mr. Toto's servant fought Rogge, it would be as gentlemanly and peaceful as Mr. Toto and Earl Lewis."

Lucy sneered twice, turning to the Great Tree Emperor and saying, "Father, now you know, right? They're just taking advantage of the fact that Toto doesn't have any noble title!"

The Great Tree Emperor hesitated, a barely perceptible smile flashing in his eyes. He said, "Commander Soth, you should know the relationship between Mr. Toto and Lucy, shouldn't you? Otherwise, you wouldn't have invited him to the banquet, would you?" I thought Mr. Duo Duo's status didn't need my emphasis, but now it seems I was negligent.

Captain Soth's heart skipped a beat. The Great Tree Emperor was clearly making an exception!

But what could he do?

Currently, he was merely the captain of a royal magic guild, while the king was the Great Tree Emperor.

Captain Soth secretly glanced at Duke Os, only to see him far away, not even looking in their direction, but instead drinking and chatting with others. "

Captain Soth, could you lend me your banquet?" the Great Tree Emperor said with a smile.

Captain Soth quickly nodded and said, "Your Majesty, it would be my honor."

The Great Tree Emperor laughed heartily and glanced at the elderly elf beside him.

Chapter 526 An Unprecedented Feeling:

Early morning.

Duo Duo packed his belongings and left Duke Os's mansion with Alice and all the other women.

Duke Os acted very reluctant to part with Duo Duo, even presenting him with many valuable gifts before he left. Duo Duo, naturally shamelessly, accepted them all without a word of refusal.

In the palace, the Great Tree Emperor had already ordered the palace servants to arrange a large bedroom for Duo Duo and the others, everything prepared perfectly.

Looking at the luxurious and comfortable bedroom, Duo Duo suddenly did a somersault and then plunged headfirst onto the soft, fluffy bed.

He had never lived in such a luxurious place, neither in his past life nor this one; it was even better than the presidential suites of his previous life!

Tsk tsk… this bed, damn it, it's huge, enough for five or six people to roll around on.

Lying on the bed, Duo Duo looked at Lucy and the other beauties who had laughed at him, and a lewd glint began to appear in his eyes. He started thinking about when he would find an opportunity to get them all into bed for a big wild party.

"Beauties, come here!" Duo Duo lazily summoned, displaying the image of a nouveau riche.

Yana, Alice, and Maria obediently walked to the bedside. Lucy looked at them and said, "It's all your fault for spoiling this fatso."

The wandering soul chuckled and nodded, turning his head to look around at the furnishings, a strange melancholy flashing in his eyes.

Dodo lay comfortably on the bed, his body sinking into the soft mattress. Yana, Alice, and Maria massaged his legs and arms beside him, making him feel incredibly comfortable. He wished he could stay there forever.

Lucy walked up to him and said, "Comfortable, isn't it?"

"Mmm, fucking comfortable," Dodo chuckled.

Lucy glared at Dodo and said, "My Duke, Your Excellency the Chief of the Guard, why are you still swearing so much?" Dodo grinned and said

, "I can't help it, it's a habit."

Lucy said, "You'll have to change that habit..." Dodo chuckled and said, "I can change it, but it depends on your performance?"

Lucy was immediately exasperated, saying angrily, "I'm doing this for your own good, why does it depend on my performance?"

Dodo said, "Your husband never does anything without a reason! Hmph. If you behave well, I'll change; if you don't, I'll swear all the time... Then people will say, 'Oh dear, how come Princess Lucy's husband has such poor manners?'"

Lucy's face flushed red with anger. She stomped her foot and pounced on the bed, pinning Duo down and yelling, "You fatso, your skin's getting thicker and thicker! I'll pinch you, I'll pinch you!"

Duo, who had been eager for Lucy to come closer, rolled over and pinned her down. The pressure of her full breasts against his chest felt incredibly comfortable. Looking down at Lucy's beautiful face and inhaling her sweet fragrance, he couldn't help but feel a surge of desire. His body began to stir.

Lucy felt a hardness in her lower abdomen and blushed, saying, "You fatso, it's still daytime! Let me go!"

Duo Duo grinned mischievously, "So what if it's daytime? We've done it all before... You fatso! Let me go, Father might come to talk to you later!" Lucy struggled.

The more she struggled, the more their bodies rubbed together, fueling Duo Duo's desire. He had only been teasing Lucy before, but now he was ready to explode. His lower body throbbed with desire. "

His Majesty the King wouldn't be so impolite; if he wanted to see me, he wouldn't just barge in, would he?" "Tch, no... baby, give it to me..." Duo Duo said, his breathing rapid. "

No... let me go... tonight... can't it be tonight?" Lucy said nervously.

Suddenly, Duo Duo jumped off her and onto the bed.

Just as Lucy was about to get up in confusion, Duo Duo waved his hand and said, "Slave girls, get on me!"

Alice and Maria, having been trained by Duo Duo, only obeyed him. Although Yana and Lucy's relationship was improving, they still joined in the playful antics, pounced on Alice and Maria.

Alice and Maria pinned Lucy's arms down, while Yana began tearing at Lucy's clothes.

In desperation, Lucy struggled fiercely, crying out, "Sister Yana, why are you bullying me too?!"

Duo Duo, watching this scene, felt an overwhelming sense of satisfaction, almost floating on air.

He stepped forward and slapped Alice's bottom, saying, "Alice, it's your turn! If you do well, your master will reward you."

Then, he squeezed Maria's breasts hard, chuckling, "You've been behaving quite well lately, that's for the best, saves you from suffering!"

Maria had resigned herself to her fate. What else could she do?

Sometimes, a twisted jealousy would arise within her; Duo Duo's treatment of her was clearly worse than his treatment of other women, even worse than Alice's.

She knew the reason, but couldn't suppress this instinctive psychological reaction.

Long ago, Maria had thought that if she were to marry, it would be to marry down, and the man would treat her like a queen.

Ideals are perfect, but reality is cruel.

During her time with Duo Duo, she slowly forced herself to accept reality. Since she couldn't change the bigger picture, she could try to change things in the details.

When holding Lucy down, Maria was even more forceful than Alice, partly due to a deliberate performance, but mostly out of jealousy. She could see that Lucy held the most important place in Duo Duo's heart, but why?

Just because this despicable woman was a princess?

Ha!

Maria still couldn't forget the first time she spied on Duo Duo and Lucy making love in the Half-Step Duo Restaurant. At best, she was just a lowly woman. These thoughts could only remain in her mind; Maria knew the misery that would follow if she revealed them.

She pressed down hard on Lucy's arm, even using one hand to help Alice knead Lucy's full breasts.

Under Alice's tutelage, even if Maria herself didn't want to admit it, the fact was undeniable: she had learned many flirting techniques, especially those between women.

Driven by these various motivations, Maria was unusually enthusiastic at this moment; this was probably the first time she had willingly done something since coming to Duo Duo's side. The cooperation of the three women

in the large bed

was far more effective than Duo Duo's flirting alone. Moreover, these three women's understanding of women's bodies was no less than Duo Duo's, and their techniques had already been honed by him.

In just a short while, Lucy was panting heavily, moaning softly, and had no strength left to move.

Seeing this erotic and stimulating scene, Duoduo's lower body was already erect. He suddenly pulled the onlooker, Youhun, to his side. Amid Youhun's gasp, Duoduo tore her clothes, grabbing her bouncy breasts with both hands, and whispered breathlessly in Youhun's ear: "Baby, let's play something exciting..." To be honest, Youhun hadn't had an easy time either. Her body had been thoroughly developed by Duoduo over this period, and her desire was no less than any woman's. How could she resist such an erotic scene?

Although she hadn't shown anything for a while, she knew that her lower body was already soaking wet.

When Duoduo held her in his arms, his strong masculine scent was like oil poured on a fire. Without Duoduo saying anything, Youhun had already turned around, hugged Duoduo tightly, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him passionately.

The soul's intense reaction naturally delighted Duo Duo. He kissed the soul passionately, his hands kneading the soul's firm, round buttocks forcefully. "

I want... I want... take me hard..." the soul murmured as if in a dream.

Duo Duo didn't speak, responding entirely with his body's reaction.

He lifted the soul with his arms, and the soul's legs wrapped around Duo Duo's waist. "

Baby, don't rush. Don't rush. I'll definitely satisfy you in a moment... at least let me take off my pants first..." Duo Duo said with a wry smile.

His pants weren't off yet, his erection was still there, and his lower body was already uncomfortable from being restrained. The soul's pressure felt like it was breaking Duo Duo's lower body. It caused him excruciating pain.

The wandering soul released her legs, and as Duo Duo eagerly pulled down her pants, the wandering soul's legs immediately wrapped around hers. Her small hands reached down and grabbed Duo Duo's genitals, stuffing them between her legs... *plop*... a soft splashing sound. The wandering soul hugged Duo Duo's neck, her upper body arching back sharply. The sudden fullness alone gave her intense pleasure. Like

an old tree with intertwined roots.

This position is extremely demanding on a man's strength. It requires considerable arm strength, but at the same time, it allows for the deepest penetration and intense pleasure.

Everyone wants to try this position, but few men are suitable.

Clearly, this was easy for Duo Duo. This strong man held the wandering soul as if it were nothing, his hands supporting the wandering soul's buttocks as he thrust up and down, the sounds of flesh colliding echoing. The wandering soul's moans grew louder.

While Duo Duo and the wandering soul were having a passionate time, Yana and the others were suffering.

This kind of mutual comfort between women is fine for casual gratification, but how can it truly compare to the exquisite pleasure between a man and a woman?

They never expected that after all their effort, the one who would first enjoy their master's caresses would be the wandering soul… especially since their movements were so wild, so unrestrained. Each time Duoduo lifted the wandering soul, she tried to lift it as high as possible, making it clear that the enormous thing would appear and disappear within the wandering soul's ethereal depths.

Temptation!

Not only men couldn't resist. Women couldn't either.

Yana and the others blushed, their breath quickening. Previously, their teasing of Lucy was purely for fun, but now they were completely absorbed.

Yana kneaded Lucy's breasts while simultaneously bringing her own breasts to Lucy's lips. Lucy, lost in a daze, had already let lust take over her reason, opening her small mouth to suckle in cooperation.

In this respect, Maria and Alice were unfortunate.

Bound by the chastity curse, even masturbation had become a luxury for them.

As Duoduo vigorously thrust into the wandering soul, he walked to the bedside, his sweat dripping onto Alice's face. Alice, her eyes filled with ecstasy, stuck out her tongue to lick the sweat away, then looked at Duoduo with longing in her eyes.

Such a comfortable and luxurious palace, such a large bed, so many beautiful women—Duoduo's interest was even greater, and his energy was naturally inexhaustible.

Duoduo, panting, laughed: "Those who want it, take off your clothes and bend over to the bed!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yana and Alice began quickly undressing. Maria hesitated for a moment, but unable to resist her urgent physical needs, she gritted her teeth and stripped naked. As for Lucy, there was no need to undress; she had already been stripped clean by Yana and the others, and lay on the bed, exhausted, only able to moan softly.

Alice, Maria, and Yana—three stunning beauties, three round, plump buttocks, the pink folds between their subtly parted peaks resembling three chrysanthemums ready to be plucked.

Seeing this, Duo Duo's lust intensified. Stimulated by this, he thrust harder with each stroke, driving You Hun to the brink of ecstasy. In no time, You Hun had climaxed at least three or four times.

"Ah…ah…I…I can't…let…let me rest…" You Hun gasped, his voice weak.

Duo Duo chuckled, saying nothing, and thrust even harder, dozens more times.

In Chapter 528, the final stroke, Duo Duo

tried circulating the Nine Yang Energy, feeling not only increasingly refreshed but also seemingly inexhaustible in stamina.

This feeling delighted him, and he began circulating it while fully enjoying himself.

Unbeknownst to Duo Duo, Yana felt equally blissful, noticing that each of Duo Duo's thrusts felt different from before.

Having tasted the sweetness and with no more worries, Duoduo laughed heartily and said, "Today, I'll make sure you're all bedridden!"

With that, Duoduo let go of everything and indulged in the pleasure. Little did he know that this experiment with the Nine Yang Energy was incredibly beneficial to him and his women. The Nine Yang Energy was the ultimate Yang energy, and its application in sex was a perfect opportunity for the Yin and Yang to complement each other.

It was also incredibly lucky that after understanding how to use the Nine Yang Energy, sex was no longer just a physical pleasure, but a process of cultivation.

How much time had passed was unknown.

The palace was silent; the nearly day-long battle had finally ended.

On the wide bed, Lucy, Youhun, Yana, Alice, and Maria lay sprawled, their beautiful eyes closed, panting softly.

Night had fallen outside, but the palace was still dark, without any lamps lit.

Even if palace maids came, they would probably only hear the sounds of the fierce battle and run far away in fear.

Lying on the bed, Duoduo felt incredibly comfortable. The only drawback was that he was only learning about the wondrous uses of the Nine Yang Energy for the first time. He only knew to protect himself by consolidating his essence and nourishing his source, but he hadn't even had a chance to ejaculate before the women were already overwhelmed.

Looking at his lower body, still erect and hard like a flagpole, Duoduo couldn't help but smile bitterly. The feeling of having worked so hard but not being able to ejaculate was the worst.

His eyes swept over the beauties on the bed, pondering who should take the final blow... Lucy?

No, she was too tired. If he made a request, Lucy would definitely agree and try her best to endure it. But he would feel sorry for her.

Yana and Youhun?

No, Duoduo also didn't want to tire them out too much.

So he could only try Alice and Maria. Although he had always disliked both women equally, Alice's recent submissiveness had slightly lessened his dislike for her.

But Maria was different; she seemed unwilling to do anything, just like just now. She was clearly incredibly aroused and wanted to be pampered more. But when asked to take off her clothes and bend over, she appeared to be reluctantly surrendering, which, in Duoduo's eyes, was the most repulsive thing—wanting to be a prostitute while pretending to be virtuous!

After a moment, Duoduo chuckled, moved closer to Maria, and placed his hand on her side-lying buttocks, gently kneading them.

Maria had just enjoyed the same treatment as all the other women, being truly pampered by Duoduo, and now she was completely weak, her body limp as if boneless.

Duoduo's cold hand caressed her buttocks. The coolness brought her slightly more awake.

When Duoduo's fingers then lingered between her legs, she immediately realized what Duoduo wanted to do, hurriedly turning her head and grabbing Duoduo's hand.

Duoduo couldn't help but feel a surge of anger, especially Maria's gaze, which made him very uncomfortable.

He looked at Maria coldly and forcefully shook off Maria's hand. He began to tease Maria's body without a care in the world.

"No...I...I can't take it anymore..." Maria said in terror.

Dodo sneered: "Why didn't you say you couldn't take it earlier? You want it when you want it, and refuse when you don't? Damn it. You're satisfied, but I'm not!"

Maria looked at Dodo's hard member and said almost pleadingly: "I really can't take it anymore...Go find...go find them...what an obviously selfish act!"

Dodo chuckled, pinched Maria's plump buttocks hard, and said: "I want to find you..." As he spoke, he hugged Maria's body and pulled her onto his lap, then looked up at Maria and said: "Sit on it yourself!"

Maria looked at Dodo's cold eyes and couldn't help but tremble. She didn't dare to refuse, afraid that all her recent efforts would be in vain, and she would have to repeat that terrible life of being trained. "Hurry up!" Dodo shouted angrily.

Maria slowly rose, grasped Duo Duo's hard erection, aligned it, and slowly sat down.

She had endured too much earlier, leaving her tender, pink vulva swollen and red. Now, being stretched open again by this massive object, she felt an excruciating pain, no less than when she was deflowered.

Duo Duo felt his lower body slowly breaking through Maria's, watching her pained expression, and felt a strange stimulation.

For a woman like this, any form of roughness and cruelty was justified, wasn't it?

Duo Duo felt perfectly justified!

Finally… Maria finally managed to sit down completely on that massive object, but dared not move.

Duo Duo grabbed Maria's breasts with both hands and said with a cold laugh: Why aren't you moving?

Maria gasped, and whispered: It hurts so much, please let me go?

Duo Duo said: How many times have you said that? I said if you behaved, I would let you go, but did you? "Damn it, don't always show that annoying expression in front of me! Let me tell you, you're just my slave girl. If you do well, you'll be rewarded by your master; if you don't, you'll be punished!" Dodo grew angrier

with each word, and when Maria wasn't looking, he thrust hard into her. Maria trembled violently in pain, tears streaming down her face. The maid's face flushed even more. She wanted to avoid Dodo's gaze, but dared not lower her head or shake off his hand. She could only suppress her embarrassment and say, "I...I didn't see anything..." Her reaction only amused Dodo more. He said mischievously, "Would you like to play like that with His Excellency the Duke someday?" "No...I dare not..." The maid trembled with fear.

"You fatso, you're bullying people again?" Lucy's voice came from behind, and then a cloak was gently draped over Duo Duo's shoulders.

Caught red-handed teasing the little girl, Duo Duo blushed and chuckled awkwardly, saying, "I was just joking with them... Look how scared you've made them!" Lucy said coquettishly. "Greetings,

Your Highness." The maids bowed and said.

Lucy nodded and smiled, "Don't be afraid, His Majesty the Duke just likes to joke."

Duo Duo chuckled awkwardly and quickly changed the subject, "Lucy, His Majesty the King just came by and wants us to see him..." Lucy's face suddenly turned red. Could it be... could it be that her father saw her doing those embarrassing things...? Duo Duo saw what Lucy meant and said, "This maid is very clever. She told His Majesty the King that we were resting and that His Majesty did not enter the palace."

Lucy sighed and glared at Duo Duo, who chuckled and pretended not to see it.

Inside the King's palace.

The palace was brightly lit in the early morning.

The Great Tree Emperor sat at his table, intently studying a scroll of parchment.

When a guard announced the arrival of Duo Duo and Lucy, the Great Tree Emperor casually tossed the scroll aside, stretched, and smiled as Duo Duo and Lucy slowly approached. "

Father,"

Lucy and Duo Duo said in unison, "Greetings, Your Majesty..."

The Great Tree Emperor smiled, beckoning Duo Duo and Lucy to sit in chairs beside his table. "Have you eaten?"

Lucy shook her head. "Not yet. We heard you wanted us, so we rushed over."

The Great Tree Emperor said with a double meaning, "Young people, you should take care of your health..." Lucy was already feeling guilty. Hearing the Great Tree Emperor's words, she blushed and glared at Duo Duo, who also felt embarrassed and could only pretend not to understand. "

Father, what did you call us here for?" Lucy quickly changed the subject.

The Great Tree Emperor said, "I'm considering when your wedding should be held."

Lucy said shyly, "There's no rush..." The Great Tree Emperor shook his head and said, "I already announced those things last night. If the wedding is delayed any longer, it won't be good. I've decided, two days from now!" "

Two days from now?" Lucy exclaimed in surprise, "Won't that be too rushed?" Duoduo also felt it was a bit rushed. A wedding is a major life event; how much can be prepared in just two days?

The Great Tree Emperor smiled and said, "Rushed? Actually, it can be arranged very well. The sky over the palace has been gloomy for too long; we should use a happy event to wash away the bad luck. My daughter's wedding is a major event for the entire Great Tree Elf Empire to celebrate. Don't worry. I have decided to mobilize all the officials in charge of etiquette and procurement to temporarily put aside everything else and wholeheartedly prepare for your wedding!"

Then, the Great Tree Emperor added, "I also have my reasons for saying two days from now. I just received a message from the Temple of Nature. Her Highness, the Holy Maiden Mulan of the Main Temple..." "They will arrive at our Giant Tree Elf Empire tomorrow. As the saying goes, 'better to be early than late.' To have the Holy Maiden of the Grand Temple grace the wedding with her presence is an immense honor!"

Holy Maiden Mulan?

Duo Duo paused slightly, the image of that stunningly beautiful, ethereal figure flashing through her mind… "The invitations I just signed will be sent to the Green Grass Elf Empire and the Heavenly Vine Elf Empire tomorrow morning. Lucy, you and Duo Duo, get ready. Let's settle on this." The Giant Tree Emperor said confidently.

Having said all that, what could Lucy say? She could only nod in agreement.

The Giant Tree Emperor said, "I don't know what Holy Maiden Mulan's purpose is in coming to our Giant Tree City this time. However, I'll take this opportunity to tell her about that guy Os sending someone to impersonate a member of the Temple to harm your brother. If the Temple is willing to stand on our side, even if Os is well-prepared, he will still fail."

Lucy nodded; naturally, the Temple's influence throughout the entire elven territory was unquestionable.

Dodo was somewhat confused, unsure how to resolve the issue with the Night Elves. Having promised Yana and Booker, he had to keep his word. It seemed he could only wait for the right opportunity to decide his course of action.

Then, Dodo thought about his purpose in coming to the elven territory.

It seemed he had almost forgotten it. Another point puzzled him: the treasure was widely rumored, and the elven territory was under martial law, prohibiting human trade. Why, then, was there no news of it when he was actually in the elven empire?

Dodo glanced at the Great Tree Emperor. He couldn't ask him these questions directly. It seemed he would have to tell Lucy behind his back and let her investigate, thus avoiding any offense to the Great Tree Emperor. "

Dodo, is something wrong?" The Great Tree Emperor spoke to Dodo in a very gentle tone, like he would to his child. Dodo

paused, then smiled and said, "Nothing, it's just that I suddenly have such a high position, and I don't know where to begin."

The Great Tree Emperor said, "It's alright, I'll send someone to help you. That guy Os definitely tampered with the guards. You'll encounter many difficulties in the future. I hope he won't disappoint me." "Da Nian?" Zhang suddenly said, "Kid, refuse him. You don't need him to send anyone to help you!"

Duo Duo asked suspiciously using his consciousness, "Why?" "

I sensed a powerful fluctuation of light magic nearby. If I'm not mistaken, this person is the Great Tree Emperor's messenger. You must know, I'm a soul, belonging to the dark attribute. Light is my nemesis! Although it's unlikely I can be sensed now, what if I am? Be careful. Besides, do you really need someone else's help with such a small matter? With me here, do you think I can't handle these petty power struggles in the palace?" "Da Nian?" Zhang said.

Duo Duo hesitated for a moment, then stood up and bowed to the Great Tree Emperor, saying, "Your Majesty, I have a request."

The Great Tree Emperor smiled and said, "Just say it. I've even given you my daughter, what can't I grant?"

Dodo smiled and said, "I hope Your Majesty won't send anyone to help me for now. I've just taken office, and I should explore and familiarize myself with things more on my own. It will be beneficial for the future. Now that I have an extra crutch, I'm afraid I'll never be able to get rid of it. Your Majesty, let me try myself. If it really doesn't work, I'll come to you for help anytime."

The Giant Tree Emperor hesitated for a moment, then laughed heartily, "Courageous! Not bad, not bad! Lucy, you've chosen a good husband!"

Lucy said shyly, "Of course! The man I chose is naturally outstanding."

Dodo chuckled inwardly, "Damn, you chose him? If I hadn't forced myself on you, who knows who would be now..." The Giant Tree Emperor said, "Alright, I agree. It's up to you!" Dodo

nodded vigorously.

Chapter 530: A New Look .

Finally, under Lucy's persuasion, the Giant Tree Emperor decided to rest, and Dodo hurriedly left the royal palace.

"Lucy, your father is quite the talker..." Duoduo said sincerely.

"What, my father? In two days, he'll be your father too!" Lucy said, her face slightly flushed. She thought about how she would become a real wife in two days. Although they had already consummated their marriage, a wedding was, for a woman, a symbol of transition from girlhood to womanhood.

"Oh... I'll call him that in two days..." Duoduo chuckled.

Lucy said, "You fatso, you have to be good to me from now on, okay?"

Duoduo raised her hand and said, "I swear to God, I have always been, and will always be, good to you, and tomorrow will be even better than today!"

Lucy playfully scolded, "You're so sweet-talking..." Duo Duo chuckled mischievously, "If I weren't sweet-talking, my wife wouldn't let me into bed!"

Hearing Duo Duo mention this, Lucy pinched him hard, saying, "Let me tell you, you're not allowed to do that kind of thing in broad daylight anymore."

Duo Duo nodded, saying, "Even if I do, I have to close the door properly..." Lucy stomped her foot angrily, saying, "I'm ignoring you, you smooth-talking devil!"

Duo Duo smiled, then suddenly became serious

, saying, "Lucy, I want to ask you for a favor." Lucy stared blankly at Duo Duo, saying, "I'm not used to you being so serious all of a sudden. What is it?"

Duo Duo said, "Do you remember saying that your stepmother, the current Queen, had drawings similar to mine?"

Lucy's face suddenly darkened. She said, "Don't mention her. I've always found her suspicious, and now it seems she's probably colluding with that bastard Os. Haven't you noticed my father doesn't mention her anymore?"

Dodo said, "I only brought her up because of that map. It's very important to me. I have to get my hands on it."

Lucy asked doubtfully, "What kind of map is it?"

Dodo smiled and said, "A treasure map! It's said to contain a huge treasure, enough to allow the Night Elves to have their own city in the elven territory!

Is it really that amazing?" Lucy asked in surprise.

Dodo said, "I've only heard about it, but we've already found so many map maps, and only the last one is in your stepmother's hands. We can't just give up because you hate her, can we? Let me tell you, some people say there's a secret to becoming a god in the treasure map. Tsk tsk... If we become gods, then we'll never grow old, and we'll be together forever."

It was clear that Lucy had a very bad feeling about her so-called stepmother, who was now the queen. Just mentioning her made Lucy's mood obviously worse.

Even though Dodo raved about the treasure map, Lucy only said calmly, "I'll think of a way." Seeing Lucy's expression, Duoduo couldn't bear to pressure her about this matter again. He could only sigh inwardly; it seemed he would have to rely on himself again.

Lucy remained silent the entire way, the atmosphere between them heavy.

Duoduo desperately wanted to know what the Queen had done to Lucy to make her hate her so much. But he ultimately suppressed his curiosity. Lucy was already in a bad mood; he couldn't make things worse.
