Chapter 260 Phyllis's fate takes a turn, Archibald, your death is coming!
Facing Phyllis's threat, Archibald lowered his head and looked down at the two men covered in blood with contempt, as if he were looking at two defeated dogs.

"Oh, I'll give you one night to pack your bags. We'll leave at 6 o'clock tomorrow. Remember, this is a notice. You no longer have any right to negotiate with me."

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand, and the chosen knights of Eternal Light behind him stopped their actions and lined up calmly behind him, surrounding the legendary knight who walked proudly on the ground with knights in golden armor, and left the reception room.

Dietrich came to Su Li's side immediately, brought tears of pity to Su Li's lips, and said, "My Lord, it's okay, it's okay! Drink this potion and you will be fine. We have a professional obstetrics and gynecology hospital, and Phyllis will be fine too."

Su Li held his chest in pain and coughed up a mouthful of blood. He angrily swept away the potion in front of him, clenched his bloody left palm, and roared through gritted teeth: "Take it away! There is no need to treat my wound before I kill Archibald! Like he said, this severed limb will remind me of today's shame!"

The precious Tears of Mercy fell to the ground, the sound of the crystal breaking was sharp and piercing, and a large amount of sacred potion spilled all over the floor, mixing with the blood, making the vermilion carpet in the entire reception room particularly charming.

Su Li has never had many enemies, because he never holds grudges overnight!

He gritted his teeth, bent down in pain, and passed his hands through Phyllis's armpits. He ignored the blood on her body and picked her up. He held her tightly in his arms, hugged her soft and slender body, and said through gritted teeth: "Phyllis, believe me! I will definitely kill this Archibald, and make his Eternal Sword no longer eternal. Shatter it immediately! I will not let you go to the Surander Province!"

Phyllis's face was pale, and the massive blood loss made her extremely weak, but her spirit was unprecedentedly strong, and her eyes burned with a bright and determined light.

She raised her hand with great effort, gently stroked Su Li's cheek, coughed up a mouthful of blood, and said firmly: "No... cough cough ~, Lord, I want to go to the Sulande Province! Even if I have to kill Archibald, I will go. I never want to see this scene again, and I never want anyone to hurt you again!"

"Ahem~ Before... Before, I was too selfish. I enjoyed your favor and protection, so I could be carefree and happy. But all this beauty, all my enjoyment, is built under the support of your wings. From now on... Ahem, let me be someone who can be useful to you too! I will never allow anyone to hurt you again!"

Su Li immediately hugged her tightly and said excitedly: "What nonsense! You are my courtier, and protecting you is what I, as a man, should do!"

Phyllis burst into tears and hugged Su Li tightly, saying, "My Lord, protecting you is also my wish! I can't bear to see Archibald hurt you again. Avril told me that I would be your most important helper in ascending the throne. Regardless of fate or will, I must go to the province of Surander!"

"Let me serve you one last time tonight."

Su Li slammed the table hard and said resolutely: "You can go to the Surander Province, but you can't be escorted there in such humiliation! I never take revenge overnight. Archibald must die!"

After saying that, Su Li instructed Dietrich, "Take Phyllis down for treatment. I will discuss revenge with the Marshal and the Chief Steward."

Seeing the burning determination in Su Li's eyes, Phyllis smiled with relief. As long as the Lord didn't let this setback shake his confidence, with his talent, he would seek revenge sooner or later! Archibald was already a ghost heading towards the realm of death.

After several nuns and medical staff escorted Phyllis away, Su Li sat at the long table with his sword tightly grasped. Hildreth released her divine general posture and staggered to Su Li's side. She had just been stopped by four divinely chosen knights, leaving several hideous wounds on her body.

But she didn't frown even once until she knelt beside Su Li, hugged his left hand with a broken finger, and couldn't hold back her tears any longer: "Lord, it's all my fault for being useless! It's all my fault! If I had been more diligent and my realm was higher, maybe you wouldn't be hurt today!"

Su Li immediately hugged her head tightly, letting her lean into his arms, and comforted her, "Baby, don't say such things. You really are very fast. You practice day and night, and you broke through to the God-chosen Knight level so quickly. It's almost unprecedented. How can you get faster?"

"We just haven't had enough time to accumulate strength. Archibald, we will kill him sooner or later!"

Hild was convinced of this and nodded heavily. He looked up at Su Li and said, "My Lord, I must chop off his skull and refine it into an ornament for your scabbard."

Su Li turned to look at Orstein, whose eyes were also burning with anger, and asked, "My Marshal, do you have any plans?"

Orstein gripped the hammer tightly and quickly thought about all the possibilities, but no matter how hard he thought, he could not think of the possibility of revenge right now.

The gap in strength between the two sides was too great. The 12 chosen knights alone were like an insurmountable mountain, not to mention that Archibald was a legendary knight who had been on many battles.

To kill him under the protection of thousands of Knights of Eternal Light, only a strong man who has practiced for a longer time than him can take action and crush all his resistance.

Doesn't Archibald like to bully the weak and take advantage of the small?
Then let him die in the same frustrating way at the hands of a stronger person!
This is what it means: Those who are good at wielding swords will surely die by the sword!
But what the territory needed most right now was time. He gritted his teeth and pondered for a long time, but still had no clue. He only figured out one key point: "We must kill him before he returns to the Sulande Province. On this return journey, although he still has more than 1000 Eternal Light Knights with him, he is already at his weakest. If he returns to the Sulande Province and obtains the authority of the Sulande Grand Prince Territory, it will be even more impossible to kill him."

There was a sound of indifferent footsteps on the blood-stained carpet. Ailiriya walked slowly over with the scepter in her hand. She was in good condition, mainly because she did not have the impulse to fight desperately. In addition, the emerald scepter in her hand was extremely powerful, so it was easy for her to involve only three knights.

She glanced at the three people, some kneeling and some sitting, and frowned at their hideous wounds and the blood that covered their bodies. She said calmly, "Take care of yourselves first. In your current state, they might be wary of you if you stay in the territory. But if you take the initiative to attack them in the wild, they will be able to kill without restraint. They are legendary knights. No matter how many of you go, you will just die."

"Is there nothing we can do except endure it?" Su Li asked gritting his teeth.

Alyria said calmly, "Being patient and growing is your best choice. Being reckless and impulsive will only lead to a greater price. Having said that, I'm going to sleep in your wisteria tree for a while. This is the reward I deserve. You won't be stingy, will you?"

No wonder the green dragon was so kind to help in the battle; it had noticed the Consecrated Wisteria Tree's ability to gather a large amount of Ji Lun's wind. It was a vortex where Ji Lun's life force converged, perfect for the green dragon to rest and sleep.

It could be said that if a green dragon could hibernate here for half a year, the gains in strength would be equivalent to ten years of dormancy elsewhere. After all, dragons have long lifespans, and they don't enjoy cultivation, spending most of their lives dormant. Having such a good place means green dragons can enjoy a better lifestyle.

Su Li was in no mood to care about her, so he waved his hand and said to Ailiriya, "Do as you please."

After she left, Hildur held Su Li's left hand with a broken finger and said, "My Lord, Alyria is currently the calmest among all of us. I think it is necessary to listen to her opinion. Even if Archibald takes Phyllis away, we can't act rashly. They are still a few months away from arriving in the Surander Province. We can calm down and choose the most appropriate time to act. We must ensure that if we don't move, we will kill them!"

"Your most urgent task now is to appease Phyllis. After all, we can continue to patiently wait and accumulate strength in the Black Forest Territory. But she will have to leave her home alone and head to a completely unfamiliar, cold place surrounded by powerful enemies. She will be lonely and under the greatest pressure."

opportunity!

That’s right, Su Li also took a deep breath and reminded himself.

You can express anger, but you cannot express it in an angry way.

The more critical the moment, the more you need to remain calm and play to your strengths. You can't let anger control your mind and do things that will hurt your loved ones and please your enemies.

He then took a deep breath and said, "Hilde, you're right. I'll go and appease Phyllis. Even revenge is not necessary in a whim. My steward, select 60 of the most loyal, reliable, and talented knights to serve as Phyllis's guards."

"We are Phyllis's home and support. Even if she leaves, she needs a group of trusted confidants and confidants. She can't be left alone in the Surander Province."

"My Marshal, you must immediately discuss a plan of revenge with Lord Ron. I always avenge my grudges immediately, and I don't want that villain Archibald to continue to swindle for much longer!"

Hilde and Orstein immediately stood up, saluted solemnly, and said, "We respect your will, Lord!"

After everything was arranged, Su Li simply bandaged his wound and returned to the consecrated wisteria tree.

The green dragon had revealed its true form, crouching atop the massive crown of the sacred wisteria tree. Its dark, sinister, and craggy form, pressed against the densely blossoming wisteria, was a vivid embodiment of the territory's current situation. An ugly, dark situation loomed over the vibrant territory. And the green dragon could leave at any moment, just as the pressure from Archibald could dissipate at any moment. The territory would eventually flourish. The green dragon was no match for it, and neither was Archibald!
Su Li paused for a moment as he watched this scene, then pushed open the door of the tree house under the wisteria tree and walked into the room.

Ingrid and Avril were taking care of Phyllis. There were traces of blood in the room, but Ingrid had a cold personality and did not complain at all. She continued to take care of Phyllis patiently.

Seeing the blood-soaked gauze on Su Li's hand, she became even more nervous. She immediately stepped forward, held his hand, and asked, "Baby, how is your hand? Huh? Is it so serious? Why don't you use medicine?"

Su Li pretended to be relaxed and said, "It's not a big deal. Compared to the wounds I suffered during the battle with the green dragon, it's insignificant. It's not even worth using medicine on."

Ailiriya yawned in the treetops, pretended not to hear, turned around and continued to rest.

With the influence of Ji Lun's spirit, the erosion of sexual abuse on her body was much weaker. It was rare for her body to feel so relaxed in such a long time.

Su Li walked to the head of the bed, looked at Phyllis and asked, "Phyllis, how are you?" Phyllis's face was no longer as pale as it had been at the beginning, but rather rosy. "I've taken medicine, and the minor injuries healed quickly. Avril also gave me Star Dew Orange and Emerald Spike to replenish my vitality and cleanse the pain and despair in my heart. I'm feeling very good now."

"That's good." Su Li nodded and said, "Don't be stingy with these extraordinary fruits. The most important thing is to adjust your condition to the best. I will stay here with you today."

Avril twisted the fingers of her two hands tightly together and struggled for a long time before she spoke hesitantly: "Master...Master, I have something to say but I don't know if I should say it or not."

Su Li gently stroked Phyllis's cheek, turned to look at Avril, and asked, "What's the matter? Just tell me, is there anything we can't talk about between us?"

"Then I'll be frank." Avril bit her lip and asked, "Do you really want Phyllis to go to the cold and unfamiliar Surander Province alone? That would be too hopeless for her."

Phyllis immediately tightened her grip on Su Li's hand, shook her head, and said, "I went there on my own accord, Lord."

Avril looked at Phyllis, hesitated for a moment, and said, "But if there's only one string connecting it, it's like a kite with a broken string, and it can never come back."

Su Li turned to look at Avril and asked, "A kite with a broken string? What do you want to say?"

Avril walked to the bedside, hugged Su Li's back tightly from behind, put her hands on his chest, and said slowly: "Master, I want to go to Sulande Province with Phyllis to take care of her and comfort her. With her, me, and your child, the three of us are like a rope. Even if the rope breaks, it will not float away with the wind, but will fall from the sky and return to your palm."

Su Li's heart suddenly tightened and he felt pain all over his chest. Among these three people, one was the first woman he traveled through time and space, who soothed his nervousness and anxiety with her body; one was his first child, his own flesh and blood; and the other protected him with her life and was the key to his ascension to the throne.

Now that they have all left, I really can't let them go no matter what. I must rush into the Sulande Province and bring them all back.

Phyllis's eyes lit up, too. Avril and she were indeed the closest. Although Avril's closeness with her in the past always made her feel shy and embarrassed.

But if Avril could really go with her to the Surander Province, she would undoubtedly be her warmest and strongest support in that cold and unfamiliar environment.

So Phyllis propped herself up and sat up, holding Su Li's head in her arms, and said seriously: "My Lord, let Avril and I serve you for one last night. After today, it may be many years before we meet again, and even... I don't know if we will have the chance to meet again."

Su Li immediately hugged her slender waist tightly and said, "If anyone in Sulande Province dares to hurt you, I will make them pay the price. This killing begins with Archibald!"

Phyllis gently leaned over and kissed him tenderly on the cheek, her eyes filled with affection and determination: "My Lord, I firmly believe in you. No matter how high the mountains and rivers are ahead, no matter how time passes, I will always be in the Sulande Province, waiting for your arrival!"

Soon the atmosphere in the room gradually became sweet and hot. In order to leave Su Li with a perfect and sweet memory, Avril and Phyllis were both entangled with him, showing their utmost seductiveness and serving him with all their strength.

The trilling sound of golden bells continued to be heard from the velvet curtain. It was Phyllis's first time trying brass bells.

The ding-dong sound, wrapped in Avril's tearful whispers, created a dizzying vortex in the incense and spiritual liquid.

The rustle of long skirts and jewelry, the splash of wine dripping down the back, the alternation of panting and whispering, beat out an ear-splitting rhythm in the moonlight.

On the wisteria tree, the tip of Ailiriya's tail was immersed in the pale blue vortex formed by the wind of Jiren. Star-like magic particles penetrated into her bone marrow through the gaps between the scales, purifying her body of the anxiety caused by sexual abuse and corrosion, making her body feel exceptionally relaxed.

But whenever the sound of the bed curtain bells swaying came from inside the house, its dorsal fin would explode as if in response to stress, and the tree trunks and vines that had just been repaired under its claws would crack into spider web patterns again.

"Damn night wind!" The green dragon hid its chin among a large number of wisteria petals, and the green Ji Lun wind flickered on the dragon's horns. "Wait another quarter of an hour and I will absorb the power of Ji Lun's wind for a quarter of an hour." It covered its head with its wings in annoyance, but it could not hide its claws and toes that suddenly curled up with a gasp - there were still a few crushed wisteria branches stuck on them.

The wind of Ji Lun suddenly became stronger, and the emerald scales surged with green waves like wheat waves blown by the wind. Ailiriya was so comfortable that a dragon roar came out of her throat, and her tail vertebrae made a crisp clicking sound.

But at this moment, Phyllis cried out "Baby" in a crying voice, which startled the green dragon so much that it pulled back its right front claw, tearing off half of the beautiful purple vine.

Her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and the sexual abuse corrosion on her body was cleansed, but the turmoil in her heart could not be suppressed.

A quarter of an hour passed, and then another quarter of an hour passed. Before we knew it, the dawn had already begun to shine in the eastern sky.

As the indigo morning mist drifted through the cracks between her scales, Alyria realized with a start that morning dew had soaked her paw pads. Her emerald tail tip unconsciously curled around a wisteria branch, about to fall. Seventeen vines, tangled in it, had been snapped in her panic last night. Each vine bore a memory of Phyllis's suddenly rising, trembling voice. Moonlight illuminated the rosy veins of light flowing beneath her scales, as if locking the entire night's lingering love into her chest.

The falling snow melted around her scorching breath. She had been hiding on the treetops, her heart beating rapidly as she overheard the sounds of people changing clothes inside the house. Before the dawn, two slender figures wearing mink cloaks walked out of the room. They supported each other in the wind and snow, looking back at the tree house for more than a quarter of an hour, then turned around and left quietly, leaving only a few crystal tears behind as they disappeared in the wind and snow.

This dark and hopeless world treats everyone equally and does not show mercy or hope to anyone regardless of their identity, even to a carefree girl or a hopeful lord.

When they left, they didn't say goodbye to Su Li. After all, last night's passionate embrace had already expressed everything.

There was no need to say anything more now; they hoped that the last impression they had of their territory and their loved ones would be one of sweetness and happiness.

Don't want each other to see the most embarrassing scene.

Before the dawn, in the hazy morning mist, Phyllis and Avril left the territory under the escort of a large number of Knights of Eternal Light.

On the tower of Bauhinia Manor, Su Li watched this scene silently, and couldn't help but think of when he set out from Bauhinia Castle, perhaps Earl Suna was also watching silently like this.

Ingrid stayed beside him, her cold eyes gazing at the flags gradually disappearing in the wind and snow in the distance. She asked, "You're awake now, why don't you go and see him?"

Su Li clenched the sword in his hand and said murderously: "I will go to see them only after you kill Archibald and wash away the humiliation of all of us."

Ingrid sighed and said, "You're putting too much pressure on yourself. You've only established your domain for less than a year. There's no need to compare yourself to those duchies that have been passed down for millennia. Even Archibald has ruled for over seventy years."

After the figure in the distance completely disappeared in the wind and snow, Su Li turned and walked down the stairs, saying, "This kind of thing might not be a bad thing. It lets me know how far behind the real powerful is. It also helps me avoid becoming complacent and slacking off."

But time will let Su Li know what he has lost in this incident.

The once bustling and cheerful manor suddenly became deserted after Phyllis and Avril left. Hildurde was training desperately, and Freya was not considered Su Li's female courtier. Ingrid was the only courtier left by Su Li's side.

The witch's taciturn and cold personality made the manor particularly quiet and deserted.

For more than half a month, there was almost no sound in the manor except Ingrid's lingering breathing at night to soothe Su Li's depression, and the green dragon's begging for mercy that made his face blush and his heart beat fast.

But what was strange was that the green dragon actually left behind a large amount of treasure in its nest and lived on the crown of the wisteria tree.

However, the Heisen leaders are now learning from their mistakes and working hard. Su Li has been staying in the tree house for more than half a month without coming out, and no one has the extra energy to pay attention to it.

This atmosphere lasted until the early morning of half a month later, when hurried footsteps shattered the tranquility of the manor. Hildreth pushed open the tree house, knelt beside Su Li, gently stroked his back, and said, "My Lord, the territory has finally received a piece of good news worth celebrating. Perhaps it will change your mood. The team sent by the Dwarf High King has arrived in our territory."

"The messenger of the Dwarf High King has arrived?" Su Li suddenly perked up.

Archibald, your time has come!

Perhaps Phyllis will become the only Elector heir who can lead a large army and rule the province of Surander as a master!
