Beastmaster: I don’t want to be a breeder!.

Chapter 528 (Parts 1-3)

Green Poem, the sacred tree spirit disguised as a barren elf.

Through eavesdropping, Li Cunxu figured out why Green Poetry disguised itself as a barren spirit to attack him.

The reason is simple: to arouse Li Cunxu's indifference and hostility towards the Desolate Spirits.

"The Divine Tree Elves seem to really want me to take action against the Desolate Elves? Why? What's their motive?" Li Cunxu was extremely puzzled.

Unfortunately, Green Poem didn't know much either, and her actions were entirely at the behest of the Elf Queen.

Li Cunxu felt he lacked crucial information and was unable to analyze the Elf Queen's purpose.

After careful consideration, Li Cunxu decided to postpone his actions and clarify the situation before taking any further steps. Otherwise, he might unknowingly fall into a trap set by someone else.

"How can we figure out the Elf Queen's purpose? That's a difficult problem."

As the Elf Queen was an emperor-level powerhouse, Li Cunxu had no chance to eavesdrop on such a powerful person's conversation.

Soon, Li Cunxu came up with a plan, and he set his sights on the Elf Queen's two maids.

The maids are always by the Elf Queen's side, so they must know what she's thinking.

Moreover, these two maids were only at the King level, making them spirits that Li Cunxu could handle.

Li Cunxun did not choose to eavesdrop, and even if he did, it would be useless, as the maidservant stayed with the Elf Queen all day and Li Cunxun had no opportunity to eavesdrop on their conversation.

Li Cunxu chose to enter the dream.

Little Dream Butterfly can drag them into her meticulously crafted eternal dream, and even the Emperor-level Elf Queen will not notice it at all.

The path of dreams is a remote branch of the mind; those not involved in it cannot perceive it at all.

In the dream, Xiao Mengdie, through dream hints, allows the dream woven by the two maids to unfold the aftermath of Li Cunxu killing the Desolate Spirit.

In their dream, Li Cunxu killed many Desolate Elves, but also suffered many injuries. In the end, Li Cunxu still managed to exchange for the Life Source Fruit. Then, at the Elf Queen's suggestion, the two maids revealed the information that Li Cunxu had the Life Source Fruit to the Emperor-level Desolate Queen.

The Desolate Queen exhausted all of Li Cunxu's trump cards, ultimately killing him and seizing the Fruit of Life.

Then, the Elf Queen made a dazzling appearance and snatched the Fruit of Life back from the Queen of the Wasteland.

Li Cunxu's focus was entirely on the conversation between the two maids at the end of the dream.

As the maid watched the Elf Queen put the Fruit of Life back into her ring, she quipped, "This person's fate is exactly the same as the last one's."

Li Cunxu suddenly realized why the details of the two maids' dreams were so perfect; it turned out there was a precedent for reference.

The second maid continued, "These idiotic humans don't know that their deaths were sealed the moment they stepped into the Elven Court. Her Majesty the Queen will not let any of them go."

The maid said, "We really can't let them go. If we let them leave and take the news of the Elven Divine Court out, the peace of the Divine Court will never be peaceful."

Upon hearing this, Li Cunxu understood the whole story.

Fearing that someone might leave and leak information about the Elven Divine Court to the outside world, thus disturbing its peace, the Elven Queen killed everyone who entered the place.

Her concerns were not unfounded; the Tree of Life alone was enough to make emperors intervene and wage war to seize it.

Furthermore, the Tree of Life, crucial to the survival of the elves, has encountered a problem, giving birth to the Barren Elves, the natural enemies of the Divine Tree Elves, which has caused her a lot of trouble. Therefore, she will not allow any outsiders to cause any more trouble.

Furthermore, the Elf Queen was extremely clever and cunning, leading him to become an enemy of the Desolate Elves, using the Desolate Elves to kill him and deplete his trump cards.

"How can we solve this?"

After thinking for a long time, Li Cunxu came up with a relatively feasible solution.

That means proceeding according to the Elf Queen's original plan, exchanging for the Life Source Fruit, and leaving immediately before confronting the Desolate Queen.

However, this method has two problems. First, his purpose in this trip is not for the Fruit of Life, but to find the opportunity for his talent to evolve into a bountiful divine kingdom.

There is absolutely no sign of an opportunity for talent evolution.

Secondly, he didn't know the exit.

The stone gate he entered through, carved with ears of wheat, was a one-way passage; one could only enter, not exit.

Although this method had unresolved problems, Li Cunxu tested its feasibility.

If feasible, it can be implemented as a backup plan.

The test was simple: it was conducted within the shared dream of the two maids.

After watching the performance, Li Cunxu frowned. He did not want to be enemies with the Elf Queen, but now it seemed that he had no choice but to be.

This isolated world has only one exit, and that exit is controlled by the Elf Queen.

The maid's dream revealed that the exit was beneath the Elf Queen's throne.

Lure the Elf Queen away? Seize the opportunity to enter the exit?

Not at all.

The Elf Queen seemed to be afraid of being lured away, so she released the people and set up a wooden magic array at the exit.

The Wood Link Formation is linked to the Elf Queen's life. As long as the Elf Queen is alive, the Wood Link Formation will continue to operate. Only an Emperor-level being stronger than the Elf Queen can break through the Wood Link Formation.

As dawn broke, Xiao Mengdie sent the two maids' consciousnesses out of the Eternal Dream, and also erased their dream memories.

A huge bed of leaves, the two maids woke up almost at the same time.

The maid rubbed her temples. "Last night, I think I dreamt about you."

The second maid exclaimed in surprise, "I don't remember clearly what I dreamed about, but I think I dreamed about you too. By the way, what did you dream about last night?"

The maid said, "Forgot? Never mind, what's the point of remembering a dream? Come on, it's getting late, hurry up and wash up, we still need to help Her Majesty get up later."

……

Li Cunxu and the smartest member of the team, Little White Spider, discussed their strategy for getting out.

The little white spider took out a feather fan and spoke as if Zhuge Liang himself were alive.

“This is easy, Master. I have already devised three strategies, the best, the middle, and the worst, to ensure your safe departure.”

Li Cunxu said, "Let's start with the worst option."

"The worst-case scenario is to use the old chairman's life-saving jade; it's sure to resolve this crisis."

"It's definitely a poor choice. The life-saving jade is the ultimate trump card; we should avoid using it if possible," Li Cunxu asked. "What about a middle-ground option?"

The little white spider said, "The middle strategy is to form alliances and counter-alliances. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. The enemy of the Divine Tree Elves is the Desolate Elves. We can unite with the Desolate Queen to deal with the Elf Queen."

Li Cunxu said, "This method is highly feasible; we can give it a try."

"What's the best last resort?"

The little white spider said, "Let's try the middle strategy first. If the middle strategy doesn't work, then we'll use the best strategy. Although my best strategy can solve the problem, it will make the Elf Queen and the Wasteland Queen fight you to the death, Master."

"Oh?"

Li Cunxu was curious about what the best strategy for the little white spider was.
