228 The Light And The Dark Were One
Just as Xu Yuan hid the Territory Core underground, the enemy attacked!
The hole leading to the underground ruins was in Su Wan’s territory, so the enemy followed that and reached her territory, ready to attack.
“There is the Hydra! Kill him!”
When the Light-Types spotted the Hydra, they immediately wanted to get rid of him.
“Quiet, you fools!” The Hydra trembled in rage.
The Hydra was extremely difficult to kill, owing to his nine regenerative heads. However, he had never seen an enemy behave with such audacity as though he was an easy target.
Whenever his enemies fought them, they realized midway that they couldn’t really kill him. So, they gave up. However, his enemies were acting as though they could kill him.
The Hydra didn’t know whether to laugh at their stupidity or roar in anger. “I will show you how powerful I am!”
The nine heads of the Hydra moved at the same time and launched an attack on the Light-Types.
On one hand, his pride would not allow him to be looked down upon by an enemy. On the other hand, this was the Dark Demon Dragon’s territory, and this was his chance to prove himself!
When Su Wan’s territory was attacked, her friend, Shi Linglong, who was nearby, saw it.
“That is not good!” she said. “They are being attacked! We need to go and help.”
Shi Linglong wanted to find Su Wan, but she wavered as she saw the holy light of the Light-Types.
“It’s the Light-Types!”
“Did the fourth war between the Light and the Dark already begin?” wondered the Flower Fairy. Shi Linglong was unaware of the situation.
“The war between the Light and the Dark?” Shi Linglong was confused.
The Flower Fairy realized that her Lord didn’t have any idea about the situation. She briefly explained it to her.
“The long-standing grievances between the Light and the Dark have culminated into a fight again,” said the Flower Fairy. She flapped her wings and flowers bloomed around her.
Shi Linglong looked worried, but the Flower Fairy was calm.
Although Shi Linglong knew that Su Wan’s hero was not as simple as he seemed, she was unsure of his strength. No matter how powerful Xu Yuan was, this didn’t look like something he could handle alone.
The Flower Fairy knew that Xu Yuan was the Dark Demon Dragon. He was a creature of mystery and legend who had appeared only once numerous years ago. He couldn’t be defeated unless all the Light-Types descended from the Hero Plane to fight him. However, this would provide enough reason for the Light-Types to start a war!
“A war between the Light and the Dark…,” muttered Shi Linglong. “They can’t tolerate each other because of their difference in attributes?”
The Flower Fairy shook her head. “Not necessarily.” She looked in the direction of Su Wan’s territory.
“It is said that the Light and the Dark were one a long time ago,” said the Flower Fairy after a while. “It was called Chaos. The Chaos Element was the fusion of the two. But, for some unknown reason, the Chaos got divided into the Light and the Dark. There was a war between the two elements, which gave birth to other elements like water, wind, fire, and earth. Gradually, other elements were born…”
The Flower Fairy told Shi Linglong about the ancient legend. The legend was so ancient that only a few people knew about it. Shi Linglong was now even more interested to hear about the history of the Light and the Dark Elements.
If it was any other time, she would have pestered the Flower Fairy with questions to tell her more. However, there was no time right now. She had to help Su Wan somehow.
“What should we do? Wanwan is being attacked!” said Shi Linglong frantically. “But we…”
She knew they weren’t strong enough to lend a hand in such a huge fight. Although Shi Linglong didn’t consider herself or her hero weak, they still had a long way to go to reach a level that would make them stronger than most.
“If I can’t help… maybe I should go and call—”
“Don’t!” said the Flower Fairy suddenly.
The Flower Fairy knew who Shi Linglong wanted to call. However, she knew the situation would escalate and become irredeemable if the Sage was involved. The Sages of the Blue Planet absolutely couldn’t interfere in this fight.
The Sages were the guardians of the Blue Planet. If they got involved in this fight, it would be assumed that they were taking sides. It didn’t matter whether they sided with the Dark or the Light. The fact that they got involved at all would enrage the heroes from other elements.
The whole situation would escalate, and the war wouldn’t be limited to the Light=-Types and Dark-Types only.
The Flower Fairy explained this to Shi Linglong.
“Oh…,” said Shi Linglong. “This is so frustrating! I will go find Yaoyao and the others then!” She decided to ask her other friends for help. They were friends, after all.
Su Wan, Shi Linglong, Lin Yao, and Zhao Qingrong. They were best friends!
At present, Su Wan was in danger. So, Shi Linglong naturally wanted to turn to the others.
Zhao Qingrong might not be of much use, though. But Lin Yao was smart. She would definitely come up with a way.
Shi Linglong took out a scroll reluctantly. It hadn’t been easy to get the scroll, but her friend was more important.
Shi Linglong looked pained. She had obtained this scroll after battling so many dangers. She had been saving this scroll to gather her friends for a nice meal in the future.
However, she needed to use it. Su Wan was in danger! Now was as good a time as any to use it.
Shi Linglong tore the scroll. In an instant, a terrifying spatial energy fluctuation spread out from the source.
“Let’s go and find Yaoyao first!” said Shi Linglong. “She will have ideas!”
Shi Linglong chose to go to Lin Yao’s territory first. Lin Yao’s hero was powerful, and Lin Yao was smart too!
Shi Linglong’s face darkened. “Why is this happening to me again?!”
Shi Linglong was supposed to be transported to Lin Yao’s territory, but she realized something was wrong.
