With black lines appearing all over her forehead, Lin Xueyin had no idea what the elven princess was thinking. "Princess Luoyu, please don't joke around."

"Not cooperative at all. I remember hearing before that you humans treat your friends like this."

Hmm, how should I put it? Lin Xueyin looked at the charming and adorable young girl in front of her and felt a little like rubbing her aching forehead.

"Alright, seeing your helpless expression, here, this is for you."

She took out a beautiful flower wreath from behind her back and gently placed it on Lin Xueyin's head. Looking at her pure and lovely face, which looked even more beautiful and charming under the reflection of the wreath, the elven princess couldn't help but admire the girl's pure beauty, which was no less than that of an elf.

Through the Water Mirror Technique of Falling Feathers, Lin Xueyin saw herself in the water mirror. Her pure and innocent face made her unable to resist touching it, especially with the reflection of the beautiful wreath made of various flowers, making it even more difficult to look away.

"You really are beautiful, Yukine. If it weren't for the fact that your ears and body don't exude the unique aura of our elves, I would really think you were a beauty from our elven race."

"Haha, it's not that exaggerated, Luo Yu, you're much prettier than me."

Being praised for her beauty is not a good compliment for a boy. Although Lin Xueyin really wanted to say something, the other party's kindness made her not know what to say, and she could only give a helpless bitter smile.

"Come on, I'll take you to have some fun. I was originally planning to take you to meet our Jade Dragon, but Mother said she wants you to attend the banquet tonight as a welcome party for you, and also to welcome the arrival of the human envoys."

"Eh? A human envoy is arriving tonight?"

Lin Xueyin stared at Princess Luoyu in surprise, completely unexpected that the human race would send an envoy. A wave of panic washed over her; she had secretly run away, and if they saw her, what would happen...?

"Don't worry, you are a guest of our Elf race. Those human envoys won't do anything to you. So what if it's the human empire? We Elves are not afraid of them. If they dare to bully you, I'll help you beat them up."

Waving her little fists made Lin Xueyin chuckle. Then she followed Luo Yu and continued to stroll around. However, she didn't see that the princess with her back to her had a triumphant smile on her lips.

Volume 4, Kerluqin Forest: Chapter 10, The Banquet

Before the banquet was even over, Lin Xueyin was suddenly grabbed by Luo Yu, who burst in and dressed her up nicely, all the while making clicking noises.

"Xueyin, you have a really great figure. Apart from being a bit shorter than us elves, everything else is great. In fact, according to human aesthetics, you would be considered a great beauty."

"You're exaggerating a bit. It's not like that at all. You're much prettier than me." Lin Xueyin was trembling all over, and even her voice was trembling.

Of course, this was not an understatement. Rather, under the gentle caress of Luo Yu's hands, Lin Xueyin, whose face was already flushed, tried her best not to let out a coquettish moan.

"Um, um, Luo Yu, could you please not do this? I can wear it myself."

She clutched her clothes, hoping the other party would be lenient, but she couldn't stop their determination to continue.

Stroking her skin, which felt as smooth as silk, Luo Yu was deeply immersed in the smooth and tender feel. She was already forcing herself not to lick this wonderful sensation with her tongue, so how could she give it up so easily?

"Ugh, Luo Yu, what are you doing? How can you dress like that?" Her fair body was half-naked, and her charming face was flushed, giving her an alluring and captivating charm.

"Alright, alright, it'll be quick. You're going to see a human envoy, so dress nicely, that'll do."

Although that's what she said, Lin Xueyin felt that something was off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. She could only helplessly accept the other person's assistance as they gently touched the beautiful evening gown, bit by bit. Under her ambiguous caresses—well, ambiguous? For some reason, that word popped into Lin Xueyin's mind.

The dress slowly draped over Lin Xueyin's body. The emerald green gown was full of life, and its form-fitting yet elegant design made Luo Yu want to hold her in his arms and caress her tenderly.

Of course, it was already close to the start of the banquet, and there was no time to waste. Luo Yu could only help Lin Xueyin straighten her clothes and then lead her toward the palace.

Along the way, the beautiful tree lights of the elves always made Lin Xueyin want to go and take a look, but Luo Yu grabbed her and sternly made her sit with her in the carriage to continue the journey.

Although Lin Xueyin grumbled in dissatisfaction, knowing that it wasn't her who was wasting time, she also knew that it was best not to be willful at this time. Being late at a time like this would only make her lose face.

In fact, Lin Xueyin's residence was not far from the palace, and they arrived quickly. When Luo Yu took Lin Xueyin's hand and slowly stepped down from the carriage, and walked into the banquet hall after the servants pushed open the hall door, they successfully heard gasps from those around them.

"I say, who is that human girl next to Her Highness the Princess? I never thought that there would be such a beautiful girl among the cunning humans."

"I heard it was a guest invited by Her Majesty the Queen, but the specifics are still unclear."

They would inquire around, even though they didn't know anyone. Some people who knew the inside story would help them find out, but of course, they would have a hard time uncovering some important secrets.

Just then, as Lin Xueyin and Luo Yu were about to reach the Elf Queen, a capable voice rang out.

"Yukine?"

The familiar voice made Lin Xueyin turn around excitedly. What came into view was Ailiya, whom she had been worried about. Seeing her standing safely in front of her, Lin Xueyin excitedly walked over and gave her a big hug.

"Ailiya, what brings you here? I really didn't expect it. How are you? Are you back in the capital? Are those two little girls alright?"

"Good, why not? It would be even better if you went back, but..."

Looking at Lin Xueyin's innocent and happy smile, Ailiya thought of some news she had heard before coming here, and suddenly a feeling of not wanting her to go back lingered in her heart.

"How are things going with the elves?"

"It's alright, but I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly. It's only been a day, and you've already gotten here."

"Haha, we were ordered to come by airship, so of course we arrived quickly. Besides, the elves seem to really want us to come here." Glancing at the elves around her, Aria didn't think too much about it.

With Ailiya holding her hand, Lin Xueyin slowly arrived at the human settlement. When she saw Ambassador Urna, she carefully examined the little girl.

"Baron Lin, I am Urna, the human ambassador. It is a pleasure to meet you."

"Well, I'm also very happy to meet you, but I don't know what brings you to the Elven realm this time."

A slight smile played on his lips, and his elegant demeanor left Lin Xueyin with a rather good impression of him. He then slowly explained to Lin Xueyin the purpose of his visit.

Surprisingly, Ambassador Urna did not ask Lin Xueyin to return to the capital with them. Instead, he told her that His Highness the Prince hoped she could explore the terrain and offer him some reasonable suggestions in the future.

Lin Xueyin understood the prince's thoughts. The capital was currently in the eye of the storm, and there was no point in her staying there except to be caught in the vortex. It would be more comfortable to be outside.

It must be said that Prince Ikux was quite shrewd. Knowing that he didn't want to go back, he simply found a reason for himself, so that he could openly stay outside and avoid those troublesome things.

Luo Yu watched Lin Xueyin chatting and laughing with the tall human girl, a strange look flashing in her eyes. Especially when she saw that the girl's clothes were not very nice, it made her feel inexplicably irritated.

"Yukine, is this your friend?"

Unable to contain her inner turmoil, Luo Yu bid farewell to those around her and gracefully approached the girl before her, whose hand she had been holding with Lin Xueyin. Her emerald green eyes gently gazed at the girl in front of her.

It was a very ordinary dress, one that wouldn't even be considered acceptable among the elves, and even her appearance wasn't the kind that would immediately impress.

"Luo Yu, this is my good friend, my sworn friend, Ailiya." He pulled Luo Yu to stand in front of Ailiya and pointed at Luo Yu before speaking to her.

"Aria, this is a friend I met in the Elf race, Luo Yu. She's an Elf princess, isn't she amazing?"

Volume 4: Kerluqin Forest: Chapter 11 Conflict at the Banquet

After introducing Luo Yu to Ailiya, Lin Xueyin didn't think much of it, even though Ailiya's expression wasn't quite right. When Luo Yu invited her to meet the elven nobles, she casually declined.

Luo Yu glanced at Lin Xueyin quietly. "Xueyin, are you really not going to come with me to meet those elven nobles? After all, you'll be staying here for a long time."

Blinking, Lin Xueyin was reminded of the nobles she had met when she was in the human race, and her head suddenly felt huge.

"I won't go. I can't learn the etiquette of the nobility at all."

Seeing her timid appearance, Luo Yu silently made a small decision for her in her heart, then politely bowed and turned to leave.

As Lin Xueyin watched Luo Yu's departing figure, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. When she was with this princess, she always felt a sense of oppression. The noble elegance that she inadvertently revealed made her feel a natural distance between them.

"Wow, this princess has such a powerful aura, it's terrifying."

Hearing Aria's mutterings behind her, Lin Xueyin chuckled, "Aria, you do know what aura is?"

"Tch, you little brat, who do you think I am? How could I not sense that obvious aura?" Aria rolled her eyes at Lin Xueyin, but her face was filled with a gentle smile.

"Finally, I've seen you. Honestly, when I saw you leave without saying goodbye, I was almost scared to death. Don't you know what's going on with you? So many people are watching you, and you still dare to run around."

Instead of directly answering Aria's question, Lin Xueyin looked at her friend's pretty face with a puzzled expression. "Wow, Aria, you actually know my current situation? I really didn't expect that."

Hmmmm, Aria stared intently at the smiling girl, then let out a sigh of relief as if she had put down a burden, and said, "Xiaoxue, you little rascal, really... Alright, I heard it from Prince Ikux and Princess Irabel."

"I knew it! Aria wouldn't think that much about it; she must have heard it from someone else."

"Lin Xueyin, don't say that with that 'I knew it' look on your face. Don't I have any pride?"

Arya glared menacingly at the little girl, and her displeasure grew even stronger when she saw the girl's ambiguous, half-smiling face.

"Um, okay, okay, just kidding, just kidding." He patted Aria's ample chest with a smile, as if to help her catch her breath, but it could also be a chance to take advantage of her.

The sight of these two beautiful young women flirting and teasing each other was quite a headache. Although I really wanted to tell them that this was an elven banquet and they shouldn't be doing such impolite things.

However, considering the details of how the Elf Princess treated Lin Xueyin before, it was best not to speak carelessly. If she made the princess unhappy, it might not do her any good.

"Lord Urna, are you feeling unwell?"

The usually carefree Aria suddenly noticed that Ambassador Urna, who had brought her there, looked rather unwell.

"It's nothing, just have fun."

Upon noticing the elven princess's gaze fixed upon her once more, Urna couldn't help but sigh. She wondered what kind of luck this girl had to be so favored by this princess, who was universally acknowledged as arrogant.

At the elf party, which values ​​etiquette, this constant bickering and joking made Urna feel somewhat embarrassed. In the end, he had no choice but to speak up and interrupt the two unruly girls.

"You two, stop fooling around. This is the Elven welcome banquet for us. Your antics are disgracing our empire."

Uh, only then did she remember her current identity. Ailiya quickly straightened her clothes, which hadn't been disheveled at all from the commotion, and Lin Xueyin also helped her comb her somewhat messy long hair.

Luo Yu watched this heartwarming scene from afar, her beautiful eyes narrowed into slits, a glint of shrewdness flashing within them. Just as she was about to bid farewell to the forest priestess beside her and rush over, she saw several elves walk up to Lin Xueyin.

"The rural people are truly a rural people. Not only do they lack manners, but they don't even understand the most basic banquet etiquette."

"Alas. How can we expect these wild beasts in the mountains to understand the meaning of etiquette?"

Two uninvited guests appeared before them as Lin Xueyin was helping Ailiya straighten her long hair. They looked at them with disdain and said things that made them even more angry.

Who are you?

"Whether our human race has proper etiquette is not for a mere elven noble to judge. This is an elven party, and we do not wish to cause any trouble. Please do not make things awkward for yourselves."

Although there was nothing that could be done about the two young girls in front of him, Urna didn't need to be polite to these two uninvited guests.

Looking at the two somewhat familiar uninvited guests, Lin Xueyin narrowed her eyes dangerously, a mocking smile playing on her lips.

"We are merely elves? Humans are truly arrogant. What, you were saved with our help, and now you dare to look down on us? It seems that humans are not only impolite, but also capable of repaying kindness with enmity."

"you...."

"Tsk tsk, we will certainly remember the elves' help, but I think we should thank the elves, not you two elves. Or have you reached the point where you can completely represent the entire elven race?"

Stopping Urna from finishing her sentence, Lin Xueyin then spoke sarcastically to the two elves in front of her.

I had heard before that some elves disapproved of the previous military campaign, especially the idea of ​​forming an alliance with the humans, which made these elves very unhappy.

"Hmph, little girl, being so sharp-tongued won't do you any good, especially among us elves. Be careful what you say."

"Don't worry, the trouble that comes from what you say may not befall me. Besides, I don't think that such a peaceful race as the elves would bother a little girl like me for no reason."

They clashed head-on, like wheat awns meeting needles. Lin Xueyin completely disregarded the other party's status among the elves. Anyone who dared to cause trouble for her should be prepared to be killed.

Being bullied? Humph, not a chance. We dared to beat the orc prince almost to the point of castration, so why would we be afraid of these two mere elves?
