The hot spring water bubbled again, and Miao Ke, her face flushed, emerged from the water.
It was evident that holding her breath underwater for a long time was uncomfortable.
However, it also proved that the cat-ear race's breath-holding ability was indeed superior to that of humans, and not inferior even when compared to human powerhouses.
"I wonder how those people from the Mother God Cult are preparing... I don't know how much longer this kind of day will last!"
Zhang Chen took a sip of fruit wine and let out a comfortable sigh.
However, before he could enjoy much peace, with a splash, Miao Yin jumped back into the hot spring, imitating her two elder sisters as she dived.
"This... is there no end to it!"
Zhang Chen looked up at the white clouds floating in the sky again.
It was strange that the giant bird had been flying for so long yet showed no signs of fatigue.
From noon until dusk, the four of them had a good time in the hot spring.
The giant bird in the sky continued to soar freely, but there were no more white clouds, only the vast blue sky.
The golden sunset cast its rays, dyeing the pool water and the cat-ear maidens lying by the pool side in gold.
Pat pat pat...
At this moment, a light, brisk sound of footsteps came from the direction of the stone steps.
Soon, a female elf general, with her long legs, walked to the side of the hot spring.
When she saw the scene before her, she couldn't help but be moved, but she quickly regained her composure, knelt on one knee, lowered her head, and said respectfully:
"Greetings, True God. Two envoys from the Black Tail Swallow Legion have arrived at the Elf Kingdom and are being received by the three Queens."
"Does the True God have time to attend a meeting in the grand hall to discuss a plan to repel the enemy?"
Zhang Chen nodded and stood up from the water, revealing his chiseled, muscular physique.
"The Black Tail Swallow Legion? I didn't expect them to have survived for five hundred years. They are old friends. I should meet them."
Splash... splash...
As Zhang Chen spoke, he walked out of the hot spring and stood in front of the female elf general.
The female general felt the immense pressure emanating from Zhang Chen and buried her head even lower.
"Meow..."
Miao Ke stood up, shook the water droplets from her body, and then took a bath towel from the hanger to help Zhang Chen wipe himself dry.
Miao Qi and Miao Yin also forced themselves to be energetic and helped to wipe him down.
Soon, with a thought from Zhang Chen, a new set of clothes appeared on him.
"Are you girls still able to move?"
Zhang Chen asked, holding Miao Ke's soft waist.
"It is our duty to serve master anytime. I can!"
Miao Ke nodded bravely.
"We can too!"
Miao Qi and Miao Yin also quickly came over and said.
"Then, alright, you three come with me!"
Zhang Chen waved his hand gently, and a set of beautiful evening gowns instantly appeared on the three little cats.
The dresses were tailored to their figures.
Miao Ke wore a low-cut mermaid dress, Miao Qi wore a red off-the-shoulder long dress, and Miao Yin wore a silver sequined hip-hugging mini skirt.
"Wow, so beautiful!"
"I've never worn such beautiful clothes before!"
"Meow meow meow~ So pretty!"
The three little cats happily spun around in place, almost jumping with joy.
If they hadn't been so tired from playing earlier, with their energy almost depleted, they would have been even more lively now.
"Very well, please follow me, True God and honored guests!"
The female elf general nodded, then turned and led the way.
"This elf has such a good figure, her legs are so long and white!"
"And her head-to-body ratio is great too, her nose is pointy, and her butt is perky!"
Miao Qi and Miao Yin whispered to each other behind her.
These words made the female elf general blush.
If any male had dared to discuss her like this, she would have killed them on the spot. An elf kingdom's general would not tolerate insult.
However, the ones making these remarks were not of the opposite sex, but of the same sex, and moreover, they were servants of the most revered True God.
These words immediately turned into compliments, and compliments given in front of the True God, making the female general a little embarrassed.
"Hush!"
Miao Ke sternly stopped them.
Miao Qi and Miao Yin stuck out their tongues and then fell silent.
The four of them, along with the female elf general Caroy, arrived at the grand hall of the Elf Kingdom and took their seats.
In the central position were the Queens of the Wood Elves, Water Elves, and Charm Elves, respectively.
Judging by their attire, the Wood Elf Queen wore a green gown, the Water Elf Queen wore a blue gown, and the Charm Elf Queen wore a red gown.
Zhang Chen, as the most revered True God, sat on a large divan behind the three Queens.
Although the Elves had the least disruption in the propagation of legends about the True God, over the years, there had been some deviations.
They seemed to believe that Zhang Chen was a deity with a hint of licentiousness, who needed to be worshipped with the sacrifice of maidens.
Therefore, the Charm Elves, a race most unacceptable to humans, could become one of the three Queens of the Elf Kingdom.
The three little cats stood obediently by Zhang Chen's side.
The three Queens were previously officials, both civil and military, of the Elf Kingdom.
"Please announce the envoys from the Black Tail Swallow Legion!"
The female elf official announced loudly.
At this moment, two women dressed in black entered from the main entrance.
One had wheat-colored skin and moved with agile grace, while the other had fair skin and a steady gait. They were two girls with completely opposite personalities.
"Qingluan of the Black Tail Swallow Legion!"
"Bailu of the Black Tail Swallow Legion..."
"Greetings to the three Queens!"
The two girls bowed their heads, considering it a greeting.
Normally, when meeting a Queen, people would perform a kowtow, and even nobles of high status would need to bow.
However, these two only nodded, indicating their extremely high status.
"May we know the purpose of your visit to our Elf Kingdom, esteemed envoys?"
The Wood Elf Queen asked softly.
"No particular purpose, we've come to save you!"
Qingluan replied bluntly, without any politeness.
Upon hearing this, the three Queens frowned slightly and exchanged glances.
"I forgot to introduce the two of you. The deity revered by our Elf Kingdom, the One True God, is here."
"With the True God presiding, our Elf Kingdom is already safe and sound, so we will not trouble you, esteemed envoys."
The Charm Elf Queen turned her head towards Zhang Chen with a voice that was soft and alluring, her gaze filled with burning desire.
She could feel Zhang Chen's power. If she could bond with such a powerful being, her own strength would definitely increase, and her offspring would undoubtedly become the strongest existence in the Elf Kingdom.
Casually, she glanced at the three little cats beside Zhang Chen, and her eyes instantly showed envy and jealousy.
She could feel that the strength of these three little cats had improved by a large margin in just one afternoon.
They must have benefited from the True God.
It was truly a case of "the nearest water source gets the best reflections." If she could also become Zhang Chen's personal maid, would such good fortune ever fall to them?!
