Yu Zi Yu narrowed his eyes, looking at the distant figures rapidly approaching, leaving a long trail of light in their wake.

One figure, wearing a crown and with long, fluttering, emerald-green hair, was an Elf. And not just any Elf, but a perfect one. Even describing her as a beauty that could bring down a nation would be an understatement.

Yet, what was more striking about her was her aura. She had the bearing of a true Princess, a high born.

Even Yu Zi Yu, who was usually indifferent to beauty, could not help but raise an eyebrow at the sight of her.

“Another beautiful creature transcending her race…” As he praised her, Yu Zi Yu could not help but recall two of his subordinates.

One was naturally Nine Tails, whose beauty had long transcended her race. With her Celestial Fox Bloodline, her inherent charm put her beauty far above the rest.

The second was the Queen of the Merpeople, Yu Zi Yu’s current personal maid who managed daily affairs in his Pocket of Vitality.

[I haven’t seen them in a long while.] Feeling a bit nostalgic, Yu Zi Yu then turned his gaze back to the distant Elysia.

*Whoosh, whoosh…* A total of eight figures rapidly drew nearer.

The most eye-catching among them was, of course, the Elf Queen.

As for the others…

Three figures had a peculiar aura. They were surrounded by a sacred glow. They were likely the Gods of this world.

In addition, there was also a palm-sized Tree on the Elf Queen’s shoulder. This small Tree immediately drew Yu Zi Yu’s attention. The aura of vitality radiating from it was so intense and blinding that even Yu Zi Yu could not help but avert his gaze.

Next, Yu Zi Yu shifted his gaze to the last three Elven figures. Yu Zi Yu immediately shook his head slightly, not particularly concerned about them.

They were just some relatively powerful Tier-4 Elves, not a significant threat in his opinion.

…

“However…” As the figures drew closer, Yu Zi Yu’s attention was once again drawn to the gently swaying, small Green Tree on the Elf Queen’s shoulder.

He focused his gaze as a series of information entered his sight.

Race: Tree of Life.
Innate Talent: Creating Life — It can continuously reproduce. Given enough time and by expending Spiritual and physical energy, it can also give birth to exceptionally talented life forms.

Unique Abilities:

Healing Leaves — It can produce leaves rich in vitality, so potent that one could heal just by placing them in their mouth.

Mental Restoration — It can restore others’ mental state and replenish their energy.

Life Domain — It can create a vast field rich in vitality, greatly enhancing the recovery of physical strength and Spiritual Energy. Within this field, the mental recovery speed of elves is also slightly improved.

Life Spirit Essence — It can create a divine essence that not only purifies impurities but also heals the body.

The status screen of the small Tree left Yu Zi Yu staring in a daze. He really had not expected this small Tree to be the renowned Tree of Life.

The Tree of Life was rumored to be a Sacred Artifact of the Elf Clan. It was also the lifeblood of the Elf Clan.

After reviewing the Tree of Life’s Attributes, Yu Zi Yu understood why it was revered by the Elves. Presumably, the so-called ‘Elves’ were likely nurtured by it.

Of course, ordinary Elves were not the focus here; most of them reproduced physically. However, a High Elf, especially someone like Elf Queen, an Elf proficient in all Elements, would have definitely been nurtured by this Tree of Life.

The striking figure Yu Zi Yu had been staring at all this while, whose beauty had transcended the race, was indeed an Elf proficient in all Elements.

Lightning, light, water, wind…she was a master of all Elements.

However, after a quick look at her status screen, Yu Zi Yu discovered that the Elf Queen specialized in wind and wood.

As for other Elements, either she had not practiced them or they had not developed yet. After all, not every being had the Evolution Points Yu Zi Yu possesses. And even with Evolution Points, Yu Zi Yu found it really challenging to train in various Elements.

This showed that an All-Elemental Talent was not necessarily a good thing. It simply meant more choices for training.

As a matter of fact, the title of ‘Elf Queen’ wasn’t a mere label but signified the highest bloodline in the Elf Clan. This was evident from the introduction of her bloodline, which Yu Zi Yu saw when he focused his gaze on her graceful figure.

Innate Bloodline: Elf Queen Bloodline — Blessed by the Tree of Life, she possesses talent in all Elements. Her training speed is several times, or even tens of times, faster than that of other Elves at the same level. Additionally, her Elemental affinity and psychic abilities are far superior.
Yu Zi Yu could not help but grin, admiring the powerful bloodline that had far surpassed ordinary Giant Dragons or Elves.

However, this was not the crucial point. After all, the current Elf Queen had had a very short time to grow. A hundred years was just a youthful phase in the long lifespan of an Elf.

[I guess the Elf Queen could not have come into outer space with her own power. The Tree of Life on her shoulder… seems to be here as a support. Its combat power isn’t going to be a concern, I guess.] As this thought flashed in his mind, Yu Zi Yu became clearer about the situation.

“This will be a ‘slaughter’…” As he whispered to himself, a more playful expression appeared on his face.

Moreover, Yu Zi Yu became quite interested in the Tree of Life’s Innate Talent.

“Creating Life, huh…” murmuring to himself, Yu Zi Yu’s eyes flickered with interest.

He could not help but fancy the idea of having this Innate Talent. He believed that with this talent, he would have been able to really create a brand-new and powerful race.

Besides, such a race would also be absolutely loyal to him.

However, after giving further thought, Yu Zi Yu’s expression turned a bit peculiar.

[Breeding…huh!?] While he could dismiss some minor details, he just could not shake off this one thing. [Isn’t this usually something handled by a maternal entity? Am I going to turn into a woman if I get this?]
