"Baiyi City Lord." ×2.

The two soldiers greeted respectfully, intending to inquire about something.

However, one of them spoke first, "Come in, Baiyi City Lord."

Adis’s voice remained cold, typical of Moonlight Elves, who only became fervent in the presence of a god, though even then, compared to other elves, their fervor remained restrained.

Baiyi, accompanied by Luoning, entered.

A vast castle lay before them, adorned with intricate patterns, exuding a sense of opulence. The predominantly white building easily revealed glimpses of the elves’ former glory.

Murals of the Tree of Life subtly exuded life-like waves.

Baiyi swiftly passed through the corridor, leading Luoning into a grand hall filled with magic inscriptions and numerous restrictions.

In the center of this hall floated a giant disc, over three meters in diameter.

The disc was colored in platinum hues, carrying a semblance of the God of Wealth, yet it was not his divine artifact.

According to legend, Destiny intercepted a segment of Xia’s space rules, creating the Illusory Disc.

As the sole great divine power, they favored using it to observe all realms.

Wherever destiny had caused fluctuations, the God of Destiny altered the course.

Records described it as Destiny’s surveillance, and now, after falling to Xia, it held a status akin to a main god.

It allowed anyone who touched it free passage into and out of Xia, enabling retrieval from any situation or restriction and redeployment into another world.

The divine artifact possessed extraordinarily powerful effects.

Behind him, Luoning too saw the Illusory Disc. She was instantly drawn to it, sensing an intuition that she might easily master the disc.

She attempted to reach out but was restrained by Baiyi.

"Don’t touch."

Shooting Luoning a curious glance, Baiyi paid little more attention. Presently, this item held absolute strategic value for the Federation.

The moment it was touched by unfamiliar energies, it would directly trigger the Federation’s sword mark. Touching it without recognition would result in death for Luoning.

"Sorry." Luoning bowed her head, responding softly.

"What brings the Baiyi City Lord to me?" Adis curiously surveyed Luoning.

The Daughter of Destiny was renowned throughout the Federation, yet no photograph existed.

Even when players captured her image, it couldn’t be uploaded, marking this as the first time Adis saw Luoning.

After all, the name "Daughter of Destiny" alone signified importance. Despite lacking combat abilities, professions remained relatively concealed for safety.

Baiyi raised his hand, and a massive block of solid ice, measuring sixty centimeters wide and two and a half meters tall, appeared before Baiyi. The elemental layer isolated the entry and exit of ice elements but immediately sent the hall’s temperature plummeting.

Adis paused, his tranquil ice-blue eyes suddenly stirred with waves.

"This is..."

"Solid ice, the Yeti’s belonging under the Ice and Snow Goddess—yours to take."

Baiyi replied casually, eliciting a hint of gratitude in Adis’s eyes, "Thank you."

Adis’s response was somewhat cold, though significantly warm compared to his initial indifference.

He did not hesitate, recognizing the item’s enormous benefit to him.

Stepping forward, he touched the elemental layer, storing the item in his space ring.

Looking at Baiyi, he asked with a teasing smile, "I know you think. What do you want?"

The Moonlight Elves’ beauty required no mention; a small smile like this would surely cause a stir outside.

However, Baiyi bore no interest in Adis, another male.

"Wisdom Spring Core, I heard you have more than one."

Baiyi added, "At least the Elves of Dawn have more than one now."

Adis frowned, pondering briefly.

Then he shook his head, "Not enough."

The Spring of Wisdom was a magical spring, formed over years of accumulation by its core—an abundant magical source.

Even at the peak of the elves, there were only five Wisdom Springs, each elf race possessing one core.

Though the same root level item, Wisdom Springs were an elemental mineral birthed by the world—only five have emerged in millions of years.

While solid ice... belonged to a different tier.

Baiyi wasn’t surprised; he merely wished to try. The goal remained the ancient water.

"Then let’s go for the spring water; give what you can spare."

Baiyi spoke, gazing at the Illusory Disc, "How is this item’s aura recorded?"

Adis nodded, his smile returning, "The council needs to grant permission; though for you, that’s unnecessary."

He extended his hand, and the Illusory Disc emitted a humming sound, enveloping Baiyi in a beam of light that seemed to scan his body’s attributes and lock onto his aura.

Baiyi pulled Luoning forward, offering an explanation, "Destiny items naturally fascinate the Daughter of Destiny."

Adis said nothing, continuing the permission process.

Once both their auras were recorded by the Illusory Disc.

Baiyi released Luoning’s hand, "You can touch it now."

Luoning hesitated, retreating behind Baiyi, "No... no need."

Baiyi did not insist, instead asking Adis, "How are they doing now?"

"Helen didn’t come, Yuan Tang Tier Two Legendary, Official Level 80, Yuanming Level 80, Baker Level 80, Aileen Level 80, perhaps all will reach Legendary by next year."
