Chapter 312: Uesugi Palace's "Surprise"
Uesugi Yuyou never came back after leaving in the morning. During this period, she only replied a letter to Cao Xiaochun, saying that because the Hundred-Eyed Ghost was extremely rare, she had to personally lead a team to search for it.
Cao Xiaochun didn't pay attention to this. Except for Gu Yu Linglong who arrived in the afternoon, there were quite a few guests today. Uesugi Yongteng ordered someone to bring him a pair of eyes and many king-level medicinal materials.
Although the eyes that emitted black light were disguised by Yongteng Uesugi, Cao Xiaochun could still recognize them at a glance. They were poached from Yasugi Uesugi.
He casually chatted with Gu Yu Linglong and said that he would go to the palace tomorrow to see if he could help her mother escape from the prince's control.
After sending Gu Yu Linglong away, Cao Xiaochun began to refine the elixir under the protection of the guards. This process lasted until midnight, and then handed the elixir back to the guards.
Just when Cao Xiaochun was about to take a bath and think about perfecting his next plan, he saw two maids slowly pushing open the courtyard door and saying respectfully.
"Master Shui, the gift from the old master of the Uesugi family has arrived."
I saw two maids carrying this exquisite tray, walking forward slowly with small steps.
At the back, two soldiers in armor were leading an elf in a white skirt slowly into the small courtyard.
The woman's blond hair reaches down to her calves like a waterfall, with a wreath of olive branches hanging on her head. She wears a crown-like golden ornament between her eyebrows. Her delicate facial features and ivory-like skin set off her own purity. To the fullest.
And with that white dress made of ribbons, her ridiculously perfect figure, and the pure white suet jade, not even Skatha was really scary.
The combination of the two is simply a mixture of angel and devil. Even if you take a look at it, you can't take your eyes off it.
The elf lowered his head, with a hint of despair under his green eyes, and his hands were locked in shackles, looking pitiful.
Cao Xiaochun observed the elf carefully for a while, then turned his head and saw a slave contract placed on the exquisite tray. Although it was not a rule recognized by Heaven, one-third of the soul of the beautiful elf was sealed on the contract, and its effect was the same as that of Heaven. The effect of the contract is almost the same.
And in the contract, her name is also written completely - Celes Crulles.
Judging from the surname, this is a white elf with pure bloodline from the Elf Goddess.
"Waiter, the empire occupied some small elf empires some time ago. This is the queen of the Dark Moon Forest. His Excellency Uesugi Palace ordered her to be sent to you intact. We worked day and night to finally transport her back to the empire."
"Now please sign for it!"
The soldier bent down and bowed, showing great respect.
You must know that although it is a small empire, there are still hundreds of thousands of people in it. In order to occupy the main elf city, they sacrificed 20,000 warriors. Lord Uesugi even used his own hidden power.
But in order to make the elf queen willingly agree to become a slave, Uesugi Palace even signed a heavenly contract with her, sparing everyone in the country, and after the Dark Moon Forest was incorporated into the Ohakura Empire, all citizens enjoyed equal treatment as the people of the empire.
In other words, all elves will not become slaves, but become people of Dazakura!
This decision to give up huge benefits puzzled all the soldiers, but when they saw the face of the queen, everyone was shocked.
And the Uesugi Palace even boasted that this battle, in addition to training troops, was for the queen, and wanted to give her as a gift to a big man who could lead the empire to prosperity.
As a transport officer, he couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw this big man. This man looked too young, didn't he?
Cao Xiaochun didn't know what the transport officer was thinking, but he did feel speechless about Uesugiya's behavior. Is this how you corrupt an aspiring young man who is about to let his ideals fly?
He guessed that Uesugi Palace's surprise might be a woman, but he didn't expect that this guy even got the Elf Queen. Obviously, Uesugi Palace probably paid a lot for this.
""I know, thank you for your hard work. I will definitely thank the old master of the Shan family in person these days. "
Cao Xiaochun thought for a long time. Since the other party has sent them, it would not be appropriate if he did not accept them.
"In this case, my lord, please merge the contract into the sea of consciousness. In this way, our mission will be completed."
The delivery officer raised his head and said with a smile.
Are you completely binding yourself to this female elf?
Seeing this, Cao Xiaochun first asked the ghosts and gods to check whether the contract had been tampered with.
After confirming that there was no problem, he picked up the contract and poured the true energy into it. The contract turned into a stream of light and merged into Cao Xiaochun's sea of consciousness.
The moment the contract entered the sea of consciousness, Cao Xiaochun could clearly feel Celes' vitality, and he could even check her memory at any time if he wanted.
In other words, this elf queen with pure bloodline is completely owned by her.
"Looking at the two of you, you must have reached the peak of platinum. You are only one step away from the star."
"I have a few pills here that can help you break through quickly. This can be regarded as a reward for your hard work day and night."
After thinking about it, Cao Xiaochun took out a few bottles of elixirs and put them in the hands of the delivery officer. He looked very easy-going, but he had added ingredients to the elixirs himself. There were five real locusts hidden in one elixir!
Looking at the information that appeared on the jade bottle, the transport officer was stunned on the spot. The platinum high-grade breakthrough pill, this kind of precious pill, is it worthy for people like them to enjoy it!
"Thank you so much, sir!"
After the two maids reminded them, the two transport officers came back to their senses and hurriedly thanked them.
No wonder Lord Uesugi was willing to pay such a high price to get the Elf Queen here. For someone who can easily take out high-level elixirs, the value of a queen is simply not enough!
Even though Celes has a stunning appearance, she is not worth mentioning in front of strength!
"It's late, we won't disturb you to rest."
The two maids also had deep envy in their eyes. This alchemist is now famous in Takamagahara. Even if they think they are no worse than other beauties, it is not their turn to serve.
After all, the ancestors of the major families in Takamagahara are now trying their best to squeeze people in here. If it weren't for Lord Uesugi stopping them, it is estimated that this small courtyard would not be able to accommodate them now!
However, after staying in the Uesugi family for so long, they still have some sense. They can't let these two country bumpkins who picked up a big bargain disturb the adults' elegance.
After that, the two maids led the transport officer out of the courtyard and closed the door.
When only Cao Xiaochun and Celes were left in the courtyard, Celes looked up at the bright moon in the sky and sighed heavily. After a long time, she slowly walked forward and knelt down gently. Her proud head trembled and said.
"Celes... pay... pay... pay... master..."
