Once at the palace, King Satria immediately gathered the soldiers to immediately go to the headquarters of the criminals in the forest.
But when they got there, the location was already empty. They seemed to be in a hurry to leave the place. Some of their belongings are still scattered.
"Check this place carefully, lest anyone be missed!" King Satria's orders to a commander named Jaya.
The criminals don't seem to be going over the line again. They chose to go through a rather steep detour.
King Satria held a map of the area and illuminated it using lanterns. He scrutinized closely looking for a path to cut off the escape of those criminals.
"Let's go!" His order.
The army immediately rode following its leader. They passed through a dark and steep path. Several times they had to duck so as not to get hit by branches that protruded rather low.
The army finally reached the rocky area. They decided to stop and hide behind the giant rocks.
Soon, from a distance began to hear the sound of horses galloping and the sound of the wheels of the cart. The sound came from the opposite direction from where they came.
King Satria gave orders to be on standby for an ambush. And when the company arrived, they simultaneously hurled fire arrows at the load of the cart.
"Siiiing.. ssiiiing...! "
"Duaarr.. duaarr..! "
The fire that raged on the wagon then caused successive explosions. Apparently the fire had hit the cart containing gunpowder.
The sound rippled like the eruption of deafening fireworks. The fire immediately scattered the carts that were dragged by dozens of horses. The fire even grabbed tree branches and caused a fire.
The horde had not expected to get a surprise attack like this. Some of them eventually died.
But they immediately put up a fight. They shot two arrows at once in one bow.
"Siiiing.. ssiiiing...!"
There was a fierce fight between the Elfian warriors and the villains. Their silhouettes could be seen moving agilely among the bright lights of the fire.
"Trang. trang..!"
Their weapons collide, sparking fire. For some reason, the elegance of the Elfian soldiers' fighting techniques can be offset by the beauty of the foreigners' techniques.
What an incredible fight. Beautiful and deadly!
King Satria confronts General Lee. They were both raised in various battles. The battle techniques and strategies they had truly mastered.
"Trang.. trang...! "
"Sreeet.reeet... cras..! "
They cut swords at each other and tried to subvert their opponents. King Satria moves agilely to compensate General Lee's invasion which has a technique to relieve the body that is quite proficient.
The movement of the narrow-eyed man was as if making him fly through the air. Struggling with the tip of the sword towards the bottom hit King Satria who was still treading on the ground.
"Yeah..! " Squeak General Lee while heathing his sword.
"Trang.. trang... hong... sreeet..! "
A gaping wound on the left arm of King Satria as a result of being hit by a sword from his opponent. His sleeves were torn apart, and blood was pouring down.
By enduring the pain of King Satria trying to avenge the opponent's attack. He then spun rapidly through the air with a sword aimed at the heart of the opponent, but unfortunately the attack was immediately fielded by General Lee.
King Satria began to run out of steam, his breathing gasping for breath. Seeing that, General Lee was unwilling to waste the opportunity. He was getting more and more aggressive and did not let his opponent take a pause even for a moment.
"Trang. trang.. sreeet..! "
General Lee's sword again wounded King Satria's body. This time the Elfian ruler's back was scratched quite long. The wet and sticky blood had colored King Satria's clothes all white.
A grinning smile adorned General Lee's face. He was already convinced that victory would be his. And he wanted to finish this fight immediately.
"Yeah..!
" Trang! "
Suddenly the King of Satria resisted the attack with his sword. With all his might he tried to survive. He doesn't want to die now. He still has to find his wife. He had to live for his son. And he must win for his people.
"Yeah..! "
"Trank... Trang... cras..! "
As if getting a large transfer of energy, King Satria attacked his opponent with a very unexpected technique.
He leaped and swirled in the air, his sword tearing apart his opponent's body with an extremely fast movement. With wide eyes, General Lee collapsed to the ground!
Realizing the leader has been killed, his men attempt to escape. But swiftly, the Elfian warriors immediately caught them.

Chen had already prepared very beautiful clothes for his fiancee. A light purple kimono-shaped pendant, the bottom piled beautifully. There was a small flower embroidery on her transparent arm.
Fen wearing the shirt was helped by two servants. The woman felt very foreign to the clothes she was wearing. It felt like this time he was wearing a model outfit like this.
"You're so pretty, miss. Your eyes are big and beautiful, very different from most women here. "
"You guys are so pretty too. Your skin is smooth and glowing. " Praise Fen.
They blushed hearing the compliment from the woman. In fact they had never met a stranger like this woman. But Chen forced them to pretend as if the woman was from the same race.
Fen's hair is rolled in half, then bunned. The rest of her hair was left free. A hairpin made of silver and pearl, now tucked in her hair.
Fen stared at his own reflection in front of the mirror. He felt very foreign to himself. Then the servants escorted him to meet Chen in front of the pavilion.
The man looked very handsome with his hair tied in half. His clothes were white with a dark purple waist strap. A white paper fan, tucked into his waist.
"Fen, you must be bored every day at home. Do you want me to walk around? "
"Yes, I want to."
Chen took the woman out on a horse ride around the capital. Fen was greatly amazed by the beauty of Baiyun town. Buildings with curved roof tips lined up along the way. Food stores and shops occupied the buildings.
"That's lovely. " Fen was amazed.
Chen looked at the woman with a feeling of pleasure. He was relieved that his plan was going well. Later he will start thinking about his future plans with Fen.
"We stopped by there! " Pointing Chen towards a diner.
They put the horses into the daycare. An old man with his head covered in cloth, led their horses into the stable.
Chen wanted to grab Fen's hand to hold, but the woman instead dodged. Chen smiled despite being disappointed. He wouldn't force that woman. Because sooner or later Fen will really be his.
"I'll eat noodle soup, what do you want? "
"Mie's? "
"Yes. What if you want? You want a dimsum? "
"Dimsum?"
"Yes, we order noodles and dimsum."
Chen immediately ordered out of fear that Fen would wonder further and cause him to grow even more confused.
"I love the food, it's delicious!" Fen said after finishing his meal.
"That's your favorite." Chen replied with a smile.
Fen nodded, but in his heart hesitated. His tongue did not recognize the food at all. He felt like he was in a very foreign world, a world he was completely unfamiliar with.
